He deliberately glanced at Xiao Jian.
"Ah, the water is so sweet, thank you, Mengjie."
If Xiao Weiguo had seen this, he would have definitely cursed.
"Simp, hopeless."
Upon arriving at the old Party Secretary's house, as soon as we entered the courtyard, we saw Xiao Wenjin lying on a rattan chair, fanning himself with a palm-leaf fan to cool off.
In those days, most families had a few elm or jujube trees, just so they could have a shady spot in the yard during the summer.
Unlike now, where every household has air conditioning, who would want to sit in the yard?
"Grandpa, I've come to see you."
From a distance, Xiao Weiguo waved to Xiao Wenjin.

"Alright, you've got things done. Now that's settled, when are you free so we can go take a look at that piece of land?"
Xiao Weiguo raised his hand to check the time; it was almost lunchtime.
