heavy rock

Chongyan originally planned to leave after seeing Zhang Yuegui, but he didn't expect the old lady to be so happy to see him, and would happily say to anyone she met, "This is my grandson, who is studying in the capital, come and see him during the summer vacation." I."

Chong Yan felt that he had never understood this little old lady, and he didn't know how to react to her almost ostentatious performance, so he could only follow behind her with a blank face as a prop.After dinner, Zhang Yuegui sent Chongyan to the gate of the nursing home, and asked him a little nervously, "Are you going home to live? Can you stay for a few days?"

Chong Yan's words slipped to his lips, and suddenly changed into, "Stay in a hotel... leave the day after tomorrow."

Zhang Yuegui's brows and eyes stretched, but she didn't know what to say, and her expression was a little bewildered.

Chong Yan suddenly didn't regret it anymore, it was just one more day, it didn't make much difference to him, but it was different to the old lady.Although he still doesn't know exactly how it is different.Agitated by this inexplicable emotion, Chong Yan patted her arm lightly, "I'll take you out for a walk tomorrow."

Zhang Yuegui nodded with a smile on his face.

Chong Yan waved his hand, turned and walked out of the gate of the nursing home.The conditions here are really good, and Zhang Yuegui's complexion is much better than it was half a year ago.I wonder if she will live longer this time?Chong Yan doesn't like her, but he doesn't want her to die early. She is like a sign, proving that Chong Yan once lived in this city.

Chong Yan woke up very early the next day, packed a car and took Zhang Yuegui and two other old ladies who lived in the same room straight to the seaside, and took a ferry to the famous Conch Island near the sea.There are temples with a lot of incense on the island, as well as several rather ingenious natural landscapes.Chongyan had heard Zhang Yuegui nagging before, saying that when she first started working, her unit organized a visit to Conch Island once, but after so many years, she never had the chance to go again.Chong Yan found helplessly that even though many years had passed, he still remembered clearly the words that the old lady often chanted when he was a child.

The old ladies went to Hailuo Temple to offer incense, climbed the stone steps to the top of the mountain with tourists, and saw the sea in the distance, fishing boats and the familiar city across the sea. Chongyan walked behind and carried water and snacks for them , I feel that their twittering looks like elementary school students going out for a spring outing.

At noon, Chongyan took them to eat seafood at the fisherman's restaurant by the sea, and in the afternoon, they went to the flower market at the other end of the city. Old ladies like flowers and plants, so Chongyan also did some market research.Dinner was settled at a porridge shop near the flower market. The old ladies all pay attention to health preservation, and they are particularly fond of these pumpkin porridge and lily porridge. After eating, Chongyan took them for a walk by the sea and then sent them back to in a nursing home.

The car parked in the open space at the entrance of the nursing home. The old ladies got off the car with a pot of small bonsai talking and laughing. Chong Yan followed behind them like a little follower carrying a few bags. Seeing a man jumping out of the reception room, he yelled in their direction, "Uncle and grandma!"

Zhang Yuegui's face suddenly sank.

Before Chong Yan could react, the old lady closest to him sighed and said, "Here we go again." Turning around and seeing Chong Yan looking at her, he lowered his voice and said, "Xiao Yan, do you know this person?" ?”

Chong Yan shook his head.

The old lady reminded him, "Say it's a relative from your grandfather's side."

Chong Yan frowned.It has been almost ten years since his grandfather passed away, and he has never seen any relatives walking around.

The old lady whispered again: "Maybe it's for your grandma's money." Seeing Chongyan's confused face, she lowered her voice and said, "Do you know? Your grandma's area is currently undergoing demolition."

Chong Yan let out an oh, understood.

The man in his thirties was still chatting around Zhang Yuegui. Chong Yan had never seen this man in his previous life, so he didn't know if he was the one who finally took away the demolition money.But judging by Zhang Yuegui's attitude, she seemed to have a bad impression of this man.Chong Yan walked over to stop the man, and handed the bag to Zhang Yuegui, "You all go in, I'll talk to him."

Zhang Yuegui looked at him with hesitation in his eyes.

"Go in." Chong Yan smiled, and said to the two old ladies next to him, "My grandma, please take care of me. If you need anything, call me."

Two old ladies dragged Zhang Yuegui in.Although Chong Yan was young, he was a man after all, and the way he stood there was more important than Zhang Yuegui.

The man wanted to chase after him anxiously, but Chong Yan grabbed his arm. He was a little thankful that this nursing home was strictly managed. If he was still living in the family building of the cotton spinning factory, Zhang Yuegui might not have a place to hide.

"Let's talk," Chong Yan looked at the scruffy man in tank top and shorts calmly, "You said you are a relative of my grandfather? What do you call it?"

"My surname is Jin, Jin Ming." The man probably also guessed Chong Yan's identity, with a sullen expression on his face, "Your grandfather is my cousin."

Chong Yan smiled, and thought that the relationship was far enough, "Why haven't I seen you?" In two lifetimes, this is the first time this relative has met.

Jin Ming sighed, "I used to be in my hometown, but this is also when I come to the sea."

Chong Yan doesn't quite remember where his grandfather's hometown is, it seems not far from Linhai.

Jin Ming took out a crumpled cigarette from his pocket, "There are not many people in Yangjia Village, almost all of them are relatives. My family has no land, so I want to come to the city to find something to eat."

Chong Yan nodded, no matter if he was a relative of the Yang family or just an acquaintance from the same village, Jin Ming came here for the sake of fellow villagers, but he did not expect that his grandfather was gone, and his relationship with Zhang Yuegui, his uncle It's a little far away, and the most important thing is that Zhang Yuegui has never seen him.Chong Yan didn't know if this person stole the money in his previous life. If Jin Ming was reliable, he could use the money to do something for Zhang Yuegui.

"What are you doing right now?"

"My daughter-in-law and I both work in other people's restaurants, and my mother and father also came to help take care of the children." Jin Ming sighed, "Actually, my mother won't let me come here to borrow money from my uncles and grandma. But you said that this life It's not easy for us outsiders to make a living in a place we don't know well..."

It turned out that he wanted to borrow money from Zhang Yuegui.Chongyan felt that if he could say the word "borrow", the matter would be easy to handle.

"What do you want to borrow money for?"

Speaking of this, Jin Ming's expression cheered up a little, "We want to set up a shop and open a restaurant by ourselves. I have studied as a chef before, and my skills are not bad."

Chong Yan nodded, "Have you figured it out? Where is it?"

This sentence opened up the chatterbox. Jin Ming talked about the choice of location, how he positioned his restaurant, and the food characteristics of Linhai people to his specialty dishes.Chong Yan had no experience in running restaurants, but it would be a good thing for him if the Jin Ming family planned to take root in Linhai.

"So," Chong Yan thought for a moment, and then said slowly, "I will pay the principal for you to open the store, and you and my grandma will share the profits equally. How about it?"

Jin Ming froze for a moment, "Are you serious?"

"Really," Chong Yan said, "but I have conditions."

Chong Yan's condition was that Jin Ming's family would visit Zhang Yuegui at least twice a month, preferably with their children.Chong Yan discovered very early on that although Zhang Yuegui didn't treat her very well, she liked children very much.In addition, it is best to spend the New Year with Zhang Yuegui.

Jin Ming fully agreed, not only to pay the principal for Chongyan, but because when his family came from their hometown, they came here for relatives.Chongyan felt that he was more filial just because he saw him go out to work and brought the elderly with him.Now that there are so many left-behind children and elderly people reported in the news, how many of them would rather suffer more than take care of the elderly?

He didn't have much money, but Linhai City's consumption was limited, and Jin Ming was a very shrewd person. The address of the store was not chosen in the most prosperous location in the city, so two to three hundred thousand was enough.Chongyan stayed in Linhai for a few more days, took Zhang Yuegui to see Jin Mingxuan's store, and accompanied her to meet Jin Ming's family several times.Zhang Yuegui really likes Jin Ming's son and daughter very much.Chong Yan looked at him coldly. Although Jin Ming was a philistine, his wife and the elders in the family were honest and dull people. He was somewhat reserved when meeting strangers, but his eyes were very gentle.

Chongyan knows that it is impossible to understand a person in a short time, but they have interests leading each other, which is more reliable than any human relationship.In fact, the old lady was very displeased when she mentioned this matter to Zhang Yuegui at the beginning. In her opinion, Jin Ming's family were complete strangers, so why give them money to open a shop?But Chongyan doesn't think so, Zhang Yuegui's body can't last for three years, and it's impossible for others to visit her often in the capital, and with Jin Ming's family coming and going, the life of the old lady can at least be a little more lively-Chongyan doesn't want her I feel like a lonely old lady with no relatives and no one to rely on.

Zhang Yuegui finally compromised, but she insisted on giving Jin Ming the money herself.The old lady will be strong for the rest of her life, and it is obvious that Chongyan did this to take care of herself. She knew it in her heart, so she was even more unwilling to let Chongyan pay.Besides, Chongyan refused to take the demolition money in her hand, so he gave her a card when he came here this time.Zhang Yuegui didn't quite believe how much money a child could earn. On the contrary, she was an old lady who lived in a nursing home and didn't have much money to spend.If Jin Ming wants to borrow it, it's better to borrow hers.

Chong Yan couldn't stop him, so he agreed. Anyway, the old lady had the card he gave, and he would send money to it in the future.When people are old, they have no children around them, and if they have no money in their hands, they will live without confidence.

After signing the contract, Chong Yan felt relieved.He didn't know how this matter was handled in his previous life, or that person wasn't Jin Ming, because Jin Ming was quite disciplined in doing business.But in the previous life, when Chongyan came back to attend the funeral, the old lady didn't even have an IOU by her side, and the person who borrowed the money didn't show up at the funeral either.I don't know if the old lady has suffered any grievances...

Chong Yan accompanied the old lady around Jin Ming's store, and the old lady followed the old lady of Jin's house upstairs and downstairs, talking about how to arrange the tables, chairs, and counters.Standing at the gate, Chongyan looked at Zhang Yuegui with a smile on his face, and felt that she probably wanted something to keep her busy.Too leisurely, she will think wildly and feel useless.Chong Yan felt that he could still remind her to pick some pickles or something when it was all right. If you run a restaurant, you must have some side dishes.Zhang Yuegui is very good at pickling pickles. He used to do it often, and sometimes he would sell them at his stall if he pickled them too much.

There are things to do, and people's mental state will be different.Chong Yan thought, as long as he doesn't get tired.Let her be busy for the past six months, and when the Spring Festival comes, the things in my hands should come to an end, and it would be good to take her to the capital to spend the New Year together.The old lady has been trapped in life all these years, and has never had the opportunity to travel far.

Chong Yan was thinking about the Chinese New Year when the cell phone in his trousers pocket rang. Seeing Wen Hao's name on the screen, Chong Yan turned around and walked down the steps, and stood on the side of the road to answer the phone.

"Vincent?"

Wen Hao's voice was a little anxious, "Chongyan, where are you? Linhai or Yunnan?"

"Linhai, what's the matter?"

Wen Hao's voice hesitated, "When will you be back?"

Chong Yan felt that this was not what he wanted to say, "What happened?"

Wen Hao didn't say a word, and panted a little urgently, as if he was thinking about how to speak.

Chong Yan waited quietly for him to speak.The things that make Wen Hao unable to speak should be aimed at himself, and the person who is aimed at him has something to do with Wen Hao.

"That's it," Wen Hao coughed twice, "Cheng Yu came to me just now and said it was..."

Chong Yan was not surprised. He had been in the capital for almost half a year, and Cheng Yu finally made an appearance.

Chong Yan didn't answer, Wen Hao could only continue to say in embarrassment: "She said that since it is her family's business, she might as well let Li Yanqing also take a share." After a pause, he added: "She didn't say the details, anyway, she didn't do it. The money is paid by the elder brother." The implication is that Chong Yan will not suffer.

Chong Yan smiled silently, thinking that Cheng Yu really had a good plan.When she came forward to talk about Li Yanqing's affairs, others would think that she was generous and willing to make plans for the children born outside. It is estimated that Mr. Li could not find fault with her, and at the same time, he excluded Li Yanqing from the Li family in a non-obtrusive manner— — Now that they have their own business outside, Li's shareholders will feel confident and bold to let him sit on the throne of Li's Big Boss?People are selfish, and they all believe that others are equally selfish.If this matter is really done, Li Yanqing will no longer be a threat to Li Yanqi and his brothers.Chong Yan was even sure that Qian Chengyu, who Li Yanqing had invested in, would find a way to get Li Chengyun out.

It's really killing two birds with one stone, gaining both fame and fortune.

Looking at the blue sky above the eaves, Chong Yan asked softly, "Did you tell her how many shares each of us own?"

Wen Hao hurriedly said: "No, no. She came to me and talked downstairs for a few minutes. That's roughly what she meant. Let me discuss it with you."

Chong Yan hummed.

Wen Hao's voice was a little disturbed, "Chongyan, look?"

Chong Yan asked him back, "What do you think?"

Wen Hao hesitated, "I don't think there's anything wrong with it. Li Yanqing is young, so he won't dictate business matters."

Chong Yan smiled silently, "Let me think about it."
