However, this is very convenient for Song Lili and her group.
In the past, even if I wanted to call home, I couldn't.
Because the only place with telephones is in the town, even if you call, it's impossible for them to travel all the way to Hongqi Village to find someone to answer the phone.
Now there's a telephone in the village. People are willing to make the trip, and there's a loudspeaker in the village, so if you shout, everyone can hear you, and there's no need to make a special trip to call someone.
After making the call, Daqing waited anxiously.
When the appointed time arrived, I immediately called again and heard Li Weiguo's voice, old but strong.
Daqing first asked about the two elderly people's recent situation, and was relieved to hear that they were doing well.
After all, they had just received news from Song Yongren, and now that Li Weiguo said everything was fine, they were naturally relieved.
He quickly explained the purpose of his call. He said, "Uncle, there shouldn't be any work to do at home right now, right? In that case, it's fine if you and my mother both come."
"Lili's brother and his family are here now. You two should come over quickly and stay here for a while. You can go back with them if you want."
Of course, if Song Jianshe and his family stay at Song Lili's house for a relatively short time, he hopes that his parents can continue to stay in the capital and return together for the New Year.
The conditions in the capital are better than in Hongqi Village, and spending the winter here will save the two elderly people a lot of suffering.
Li Weiguo really misses his children, especially his grandchildren.
However, because Hongqi Village was far from the capital, he knew he would never see it, even if he wanted to. So every night before going to sleep, he would talk about it to his wife.
She said, "I wonder how the children at home are doing? Have they grown taller? Are they having any problems with their studies? Are they arguing with their classmates? Have they adapted to life in Zhucheng? Is it because of Wang Le and his grandparents?"
Anyway, there will be all sorts of problems. Then the two elderly people thought about their children together.
Now that he heard Daqing say that, he was really tempted.
However, he didn't agree immediately. He just thought about it for a moment and said, "I'll go back and discuss it with your mother. If we want to go, we'll call you again."
He hasn't made a decision yet; he needs to go back and discuss it further.
Daqing was somewhat disappointed when he didn't hear a definite answer, but since Li Weiguo hadn't refused, it meant there was still a chance.
He quickly nodded and said, "Okay, then you can discuss it with my mother. But everything should be fine at home now, so why don't you come over? Don't you miss your grandson?"
Daqing shamelessly exploited Li Weiguo's weakness.
If Daqing asked his parents to come see him, they might not be too willing, but if he asked them to come see his two grandsons, they would definitely be willing.
Daqing couldn't help but feel sorry for himself. Had his status in the family really become like this?
He can't even compare to his own son and daughter?
He didn't know how he got to this point. He didn't even need to think about it; he knew that he was the lowest-ranking member of the family.
But who told him to do it willingly? He voluntarily gave up his position to these people, and he did so willingly, indulging them and spoiling them.
When Daqing returned home, Yangmei asked him about the result. However, hearing the two elders say they needed to discuss it, she knew they were definitely thinking about whether or not to come.
At that moment, Yang Mei thought of her home.
Since getting married, she hasn't been home much. Although they used to live in the same village, she was always working in the fields and didn't have any spare time.
Therefore, he rarely visits his wife's family home each year.
Now that I've moved to the capital, the distance is even greater, and I can only go home less often each year, only for a few days during the Lunar New Year.
She also missed her parents very much, but Yang Mei was hesitant to bring it up, even though it would be fine if her parents came.
She's not like Song Lili, who thinks it's only natural for her parents to come to the capital to see their daughter; she still holds onto those old-fashioned ideas.
However, Yang Mei didn't mention it, but Da Qing did. He went back to make a phone call after leaving the post office.
However, this time the call was to Yang Mei's parents.
He put himself in her shoes and realized that Yang Mei hadn't seen her parents in a long time either.
Besides, everyone is in the village and there's not much work to do right now, so it's good to have them come to our house.
So, I said the same thing to them. I also told Li Weiguo about it, saying that the four elders should discuss it, and if possible, they should all come together.
Seeing Yang Mei's somewhat dazed expression, Da Qing then told her what he had just done.
Yang Mei was surprised that Daqing would call her parents as well.
I was immediately moved at that moment.
Daqing was happy to think of her parents, but then she became a little nervous. "Do you think they'll come?"
Her anxiety stemmed from the fear that her parents wouldn't want to come, fearing they would cause trouble for their daughter.
After all, married daughters face many difficult situations in their husbands' homes, so Yang Mei wasn't sure if her parents would even come.
Daqing sat down next to her and comforted her, "Don't worry, they'll come. After all, they miss you too."
In fact, as long as Li Weiguo was there, Daqing was not worried that Yangmei's parents would not come along.
Li Weiguo had served as the village secretary for several years, so he was quite skilled at speaking.
As long as he is determined to persuade Yang Mei's parents, he will definitely succeed in the end.
However, Daqing didn't say these words, for fear of giving Yangmei the greatest hope only to be disappointed in the end.
Let's wait until we have definite news before telling her the good news.
Song Lili had no idea that Daqing and his wife had done such a thing; she had simply stopped Song Jianshe.
After thinking about it, I decided it would be better to ask Song Jianshe.
Because when Xia Niu came to talk to her before, she herself was also tempted.
"Brother, have you ever thought about living in the capital?"
To be honest, Song Jianshe had never thought of that.
He only considered this trip as a visit to relatives, and when the time came, he would go back to continue his previous life, so he never thought of staying here.
When Song Lili asked the question, she was immediately stunned. She seemed very surprised that Song Lili would ask such a question.
It took him a few seconds to be able to think, and he thought about it very seriously for a while.
“I…I’ve never thought about this question.”
Song Lili smiled slightly, knowing she might get this answer, and she didn't expect that this was indeed the answer she received in the end.
