Shen Chuning breathed a sigh of relief.
The two old people will live with her. She will give them spiritual spring water to drink and the grains, vegetables and fruits produced in the space to eat, which will be much more convenient.
Otherwise she would have to make up an excuse to deliver water to them.
At lunch, Shen Chuning and the others told Aunt Zhao that grandpa and grandma were going to live with them.
"Ah?" Aunt Zhao was shocked and a little disappointed.
She took care of two elderly people in the Rong family and earned 15 yuan a month, which was equivalent to the salary of a young person who had just entered the factory.
The key is that the two elderly people in the Rong family are very kind. They often let her pack up some of the leftover food and take it back for her family to eat, so her family can save a lot of food expenses.
At this time, Mr. Rong said: "Xiao Zhao, although we old couple no longer live here.
But this house has to be looked after and cleaned up by someone. You should continue to work here. I will pay you your salary on time, and we old couple will come back to visit often. ”
Aunt Zhao had thought she had lost her job just now, but now it’s been saved and her face is filled with surprise and joy.
He nodded repeatedly, "Okay, okay, Uncle Rong, don't worry, I will definitely tidy up the house."
After lunch, Shen Chuning helped the two elderly people to pack up simply and took them back to the military compound.
On the way back to the military compound, I passed by the area where Shen Chuning bought the arcade.
Shen Chu Ning saw Zhou Ya busy in the store from a distance.
There were many customers coming in and out of the store, either sending their clothes to be mended or picking up clothes.
As soon as Shen Chuning got out of the car and was about to say hello to her elder sister, she saw a familiar staggering figure.
She hurriedly went up to him, "Uncle Wang."
Uncle Wang turned around and saw Shen Chuning was a little surprised, "Girl, I see your tailor shop is doing very well!"
Shen Chu Ning smiled and said, “Thanks to you, it’s pretty good.”
Uncle Wang was about to exchange a few words with Shen Chuning, but his eyes suddenly fixed behind Shen Chuning.
The next moment, Uncle Wang passed Shen Chuning with an excited look on his face.
Shen Chu Ning turned around and saw Uncle Wang bowing excitedly to her grandfather, "Master..."
"Wang Defa!"
Grandpa Rong also recognized Uncle Wang.
He quickly helped Uncle Wang up and said, "Hurry up, this is a new society now, this kind of thing doesn't work anymore."
When Uncle Wang stood up, tears of excitement glistened in his eyes.
He raised his sleeve to wipe the corners of his eyes, "Master, it's great that I can still see you in this life."
Uncle Wang wiped his tears and said that he had been living here all these years, waiting for them to come back, and wanted to return the house to them after they came back.
Uncle Wang was very surprised to learn that Grandpa Rong and his family had been rehabilitated at the end of 1977.
Because before he returned to his hometown in the countryside, he would visit the Rong family's Xiguan mansion every once in a while.
But he never saw anyone entering or leaving the house.
Grandpa Rong was not surprised, “After we came back, we stayed in the hospital for a while.
After returning to the ancestral home, I seldom go out, so it is normal that I didn’t meet anyone when you came. ”
"Master, you have suffered..." Uncle Wang held Grandpa Rong's hand and said with some heartache in his eyes.
For someone like him who came from the old society, there is no better host than Grandpa Rong.
Of course, society is better now.
Shen Chuning had never expected that the host that Uncle Wang said he was waiting for was actually her grandfather.
After Uncle Wang knew about the relationship between Shen Chuning and Grandpa Rong, he couldn't help but sigh at the clever arrangement of fate.
Now that he knew the relationship between Uncle Wang and his grandfather's family, Shen Chuning naturally invited Uncle Wang to have dinner at their house.
When facing Grandpa Rong, Uncle Wang still maintained the awe he had when he first worked at the Rong family, and repeatedly waved his hands and said it was inappropriate.
"Comrade Wang, I just said that this is a new society, we are all gay, there is nothing inappropriate.
It's better to meet by chance than to invite each other. It's rare that we meet each other today, so let's go to his home for a simple meal. ”
Uncle Wang no longer refused.
On the way back to the military compound, Uncle Wang said that he came back today because he was worried about the house, and he also wanted to try his luck to see if he could find someone from the Rong family. Unexpectedly, he ran into Grandpa Rong.
Since Uncle Wang came to the house for dinner today, Shen Chuning took advantage of the time before dinner to go to the school with Zhou Yubai to invite Wang Yunxian and his wife over.
At dinner time, there were two tables of people at home, and the atmosphere was lively as everyone recalled the good and bad times together.
Wang Yunxian and his wife, as well as Grandpa Rong and Grandma Rong, had all been sent to live in the cowshed, so they had more topics to talk about.
Then we talked about the contrast between the old and new societies.
To sum up, although the new society has taken some detours in the pursuit of common prosperity, only the new society can enable all people to achieve common prosperity.
After saying this, Uncle Wang talked to Grandpa Rong about returning their house.
Grandpa Rong was determined not to accept it at first.
But Uncle Wang held Grandpa Rong's hand and said from the bottom of his heart: "Master, in that society, if you hadn't taken me in to work in your house, I would have starved to death long ago."
"Not to mention that you give me monthly wages, a house, and a place to stay."
Uncle Wang's words were full of gratitude.
"During the years I worked in your house, I saved some money and renovated the old house in my hometown.
I can't live in this house now, and I don't have any descendants, so it would be a waste to give me this house. It would be better for you to take it back, and then use it to do business for your younger generations. ”
"Professor Wang..." Grandpa Rong looked at Wang Yunxian and his wife, meaning that Uncle Wang could also leave the house to Wang Yunxian and his wife.
Wang Yunxian waved his hand and said with a somewhat lonely look: "Comrade Rong, we appreciate your kindness. But when the country rehabilitated us, the houses returned to us are still empty. We really don't need so many houses."
Grandpa Rong had no choice but to say, "Okay, Defa, if you really don't want the house, just transfer it to Ningning's name."
Just now, Wang Defa had told Grandpa Rong that Shen Chuning wanted to buy that house in the first place.
But now that Shen Chu Ning has bought the house, he has no thoughts about it anymore.
But she didn't expect that such a house would fall from the sky for her.
In the evening, after Shen Chuning returned to the house, she opened the mahogany box that her grandmother gave her today to look at the contents.
There are some fine jewelry inside.
The exquisitely crafted hairpin is embellished with rubies and sapphires.
The cloisonné enamel bracelet is also embellished with the finest imperial green.
Even if Shen Chu Ning didn't know the goods, he knew that taking any of these things to an auction house would cause a sensation.
Grandma said these things were her mother’s favorite.
Because her mother liked it, they tried their best to preserve it.
I have to say, her mother has really good taste.
