Chapter 156 Fan 1 (Grandma Liu)
In the morning, when it was already bright, Grandma Liu and Grandpa Liu leisurely got up.
When they just walked out of the room, there was no one at home. That day was the eldest daughter-in-law's mother's birthday, and the eldest son and daughter-in-law went out early to have a drink.
The two old people went to the kitchen to eat the lunch left for them by their eldest daughter-in-law, and then walked slowly towards the village entrance.
Grandma Liu walked over to the group of old sisters who were basking in the sun, sat down in the middle of them, and chatted with everyone about random things.
Grandpa Liu didn't want to be hated by those old women, so he turned around and walked towards the circle of old men.
There were a few spirited old men setting up a chess game, playing it back and forth.
The country has made a lot of reform and opening up. The work point system has been abolished, and every household has a contract responsibility system. The villagers no longer have to worry about food.
The market has also been liberalized, and everyone can do business openly without having to worry about being caught for speculation.
Today, life is getting better and better. If you are diligent and hardworking, you can have enough food wherever you go.
The average living standard of every household has improved, and the elderly in the village have a much better evening.
Elderly people like Grandma Liu, who are of this age, no longer need to go to the fields to help their children and grandchildren. When they have nothing to do every day, they gather at the entrance of the village to bask in the sun and play chess with everyone, or they walk around the roads and fields around the village.
Thanks to having a general's granddaughter, Grandpa Liu and Grandma Liu have always been popular in the old team. No matter where they go, others will respect them.
Grandma Liu Yang Ya leaned against a big tree, letting the sun shine on her body, while in her mind she was thinking about her ordinary yet uneven life.
When she was a child, she was a little girl who was not favored by her parents or family members. Even her name was given by her mother casually.
When she grew up, she was married to her own old man with the help of a matchmaker. After marriage, she gave birth to two sons and three daughters for him. Their life was not good, but compared with those families who often ran out of food, it was not bad.
Before her granddaughter Liu Shuxin became successful, she planned to live her life like the old people in the village, raising her son and then letting her son and daughter-in-law take care of their grandchildren.
When she was old, her daughter-in-law was kind enough to give her something to eat, but her daughter-in-law was not kind enough to give her anything, so she was abandoned in bed.
But who would have thought that smoke would come out of the Liu family's ancestral tomb, and a female general walked out of the old Liu family.
When her granddaughter went to the city to work as a worker, she felt that she had some hope for the future.
Later, the little granddaughter went to the city to work as a police officer, and also brought her two brothers to the city. She felt that her life was complete.
But her little granddaughter was not an ordinary person. She joined the army head-on and became the number one female soldier in China. She was even featured in the newspapers, becoming famous all over the world.
At that time, she thought this was the peak moment of her life, but her granddaughter was still not satisfied. When she was 70 years old, her granddaughter became a general.
At that moment, her mind was completely confused!
Who knew that Yang Daya had such a blessing, from an unwelcome girl to a respected general grandmother.
All this is inseparable from her wonderful granddaughter!
At first, she thought her granddaughter was sweet-mouthed and often brought home meat, so she loved her a little more.
Who knew that the little granddaughter would give her such a great reward and let her become the general's grandmother.
This is also because it is a new society now. If it were in ancient times, she would at least be a lady of noble title.
As she was daydreaming, Grandma Liu felt drowsy under the sunshine. She didn't resist the invasion of sleep and took a short nap.
Like Grandma Liu, Grandpa Liu was also surprised by his little granddaughter Shuxin.
Grandpa Liu originally thought he had a delicate and soft granddaughter who would act coquettishly with him, but who would have thought that the little granddaughter would become more and more aggressive as she grew up.
It’s not that the little granddaughter looks like a tiger. On the contrary, Shuxin is quite beautiful, but her personality is becoming more and more strong.
To him, she is a gentle and obedient granddaughter, but to other people, she acts like a female devil.
After Shuxin secretly beat up all the young men in the nearby villages, Grandpa Liu was still worried about his granddaughter's future marriage.
The little granddaughter has such a strong personality, which man can stand it?
Before Grandpa Liu could worry for long, his granddaughter told him that she had fallen in love with an educated youth.
As soon as Luo Yue appeared in front of Grandpa Liu, Grandpa Liu put aside his worries. At first glance, Luo Yue was just a pretty boy with a complicated personality.
Although he does not meet the current social requirements for men, he is just the right match for his granddaughter.
After getting married, my granddaughter seemed to have opened up her Ren and Du meridians, and she made rapid progress all the way, from a train attendant to a female police officer, then to a soldier, and finally to a female general of China.
He could never have imagined that the most successful person in their Liu family was his most beloved granddaughter.
On the day when his granddaughter became a general, Grandpa Liu took out all his savings and asked his eldest son to renovate the ancestral tomb of their Liu family.
Thanks to the ancestors, the Liu family had such a glorious granddaughter, and also thanks to the ancestors for sending the Liu family such a smart and capable granddaughter.
Otherwise, relying on his two foolish sons and three silly grandsons, Grandpa Liu felt that their Liu family would be finished.
Grandpa Liu felt that his son and grandson were too useless, relying on their niece/daughter/sister to gain success all their lives.
Although he was also one of the winners, he still looked down on them. They did not inherit any of his and the old woman's shrewdness.
Uncle Liu/Father Liu: Dad, do you really think we didn’t inherit anything from you? It is because of people like you that we are the way we are today.
Grandpa Liu: You unfilial son, if I say you didn’t inherit it, then you didn’t inherit it, do you have any objection?
Uncle Liu/Dad Liu: No!
When the sun was about to set, Grandpa Liu called Grandma Liu, who had just woken up, and the two of them walked home together.
When they got home, Aunt Liu had already prepared dinner and was waiting for them to come home for dinner.
The Liu family now consists of four people: Uncle Liu and his wife, and Grandma Liu. The child was taken to the city by Liu Jianjun and Huang Yao to study, and he would only return to Liulin Brigade for a while during holidays.
Originally, Liu Jianjun and his wife wanted to bring the four elderly people in their family to the city, but neither Grandma Liu and her husband nor Uncle Liu were willing to go.
They were used to living in the village all their lives and didn't want to go to the city to squeeze in the land that was not even as big as their yard.
They are still able to walk and live on their own, so they live in Liulin Brigade for their retirement. When they can no longer move, they will follow their son to the city.
Uncle Liu and his wife are still in good health, and Liu Jianjun did not force them. He would bring his wife and children back to visit the elderly every ten days or half a month.
