Wei Mingyan followed the village chief all the way to his house. Seeing the old man looking back with uneasy expression, he smiled, "Village chief, are you worried that something will happen to them?"
"Yeah, I see that just now, everyone's emotions are not very stable..."
The village chief's wrinkled face was full of worry and guilt. He always wanted to make the villagers safe and sound, but after so many years, he could only watch a generation of people get poorer.
He promised Wei Mingyan to help him just now. For the village chief who has never done anything bad in his life, this is a torment.
"Don't worry, village chief, those people are smart, even if they want to kill each other, they won't do it in broad daylight, aren't they afraid of going to jail?"
After Wei Mingyan finished speaking, he saw that the village chief still had a worried face, and his smile became more gentle, "Just leave them alone, you have been the village chief for so many years, don't you know what they are like? Even if it is your family who will move the grave today, They will also force you to move for money."
"However, these are all people from the same village. We didn't mean to let them interact with each other..."
The wrinkles on the face of the old man in front of him became more and more serious. Knowing that he still couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart, Wei Mingyan raised his eyebrows and said softly, "I didn't lie to them. I really want to cover this mountain. I also want to pay for this grave." Even if you don’t help me, if I have money and connections, I can still buy it.”
"Instead of thinking about these people, you might as well think about your son, who is honestly moving bricks outside, and can only swallow this bitterness because he has no education and was cheated. Your granddaughter is only ten years old. At such a young age, you shouldn't be together. I can’t bear to eat meat.”
The young man smiled and patted the village chief's wrinkled hand lightly, "My father always said that when looking for an apprentice chef, you should find an honest one. After you finish your studies, you should stay and work in the hotel for at least a month." You can also have five or six thousand, it’s a bit tiring, it’s better than your son working hard outside and being dragged by the unscrupulous boss.”
The village chief's hands trembled, "Mr. Wei, are you really willing to introduce my son to work in your hotel? He, he is very stupid, but I promise he will work hard for you. At that time, he was the most diligent."
"Of course, let's not talk about what happened today, just because you brought up the bodies of Lele's parents back then, I would like to thank you very much. Besides, didn't you just help me?"
Being able to solve his son's future life, the anxiety in the village chief's heart also eased a little. He didn't doubt the truth of Wei Mingyan's words, after all, this person just showed him how much money Kari had.
"Well, if you are still not at ease, call your son now. I remember that my family just opened a branch in the city A you mentioned. I will say hello to my father and let him go as an apprentice now." ,How about it?"
"Now that I have so many people staring at me, I can only trouble you to take me in for one night."
The village head was full of excitement, five or six thousand dollars!
That's five or six thousand. If the son can earn this much money every month, his granddaughter can buy new schoolbags and wear new clothes, and no longer have to be reluctant to buy snacks.
Compared with his favorite relatives, the villagers in the village who never listen to him and only bully others are lighter.
His expression gradually relaxed, yes, according to what the person in front of him said, these choices were all made by the villagers themselves.
Moreover, they really went too far this time.
Wei Mingyan stayed at the village chief's house all the time, watching him make the phone call, and watching him happily catch chicken and stir-fry vegetables and stew. After a toss in the kitchen, he knew that his son had succeeded in going to the hotel.
After all, Wei's father was so obedient to Wei Mingyan, not to mention just arranging an honest person to be a trainee chef, he would be willing to let him support someone for free.
Of course, it was impossible for Wei Mingyan to take advantage of the poor village chief. Although he tried every means to evade it, he still paid for it as if he had bought the chicken.
At nine o'clock in the evening, Wei Mingyan sat up, looked at the stars on the opposite mountain, softened his brows and eyes, and got up with a gentle smile. He took the chicken soup that had been prepared to be scooped out and warmed in the pot, and put it in the bowl given by the village chief. , carrying it out the door.
According to the memory of the day, he turned on the flashlight of his mobile phone and walked all the way to the door of Xuan's house.
Knocking on the dilapidated wooden door, Xuan Lele's vigilant voice immediately came from inside, "Who!"
"Lele, it's me."
Hearing her lover's gentle voice, Xuan Lele hurriedly got out of bed and opened the door. There are no street lights in the village, and it depends on the moon's natural light. Under the meager moonlight, the man wearing a black vest simply stood there, facing her There was a smile.
Xuan Lele's eyes instantly turned red.
She rushed forward and hugged him without thinking about anything.
"By the way..."
No one knew how scared and worried she was today, and grandma left her just like that.
Although her lover called her and sent messages to keep in touch, she was always afraid of being alone.
"Okay, don't cry, I brought chicken soup for you and grandma, it's still hot, eat it quickly."
Wei Mingyan carefully patted the girl's back with one hand, coaxing gently, "Be good, be good, I'm here."
Xuan Lele was amused by his tone, she wiped away her tears, and straightened up with tears in her smile, "Why do you treat me like a child?"
"wrong."
Wei Mingyan gently took her cold hand with his left hand, and looked over gently under the moonlight, "I treat you like a treasure."
Xuan Le looked at her lover with determination, her eyes were still shining with tears, she nodded heavily, "Yes! I know!"
She turned on the light, and under the dim light, two young men gathered around the wooden table and brought out the chicken soup.
"You eat first, I'll feed grandma."
Wei Mingyan saw Xuan Lele took out the bowls and chopsticks, and carefully picked all the soft meat into the bowl, so he knew what she was going to do. He stretched out his hand to take the bowls and chopsticks, turned and sat on the head of the bed.
Xuan Lele glanced at her lover movedly, then sat down and called softly: "Grandma, grandma..."
The old man on the bed woke up a few times today, muttering about not being able to move the grave, and fell asleep again, Xuan Lele screamed a few times, she opened her eyes in a daze, and under the light, her withered and yellow face turned pale for a while.
"Lele, Lele... don't move the grave, you can't move the grave..."
"Don't worry, I've already told them that no one will move the grave anymore."
As soon as she finished speaking, a strange male voice responded warmly. Grandma Xuan was much more conscious than during the day. She raised her eyes slightly in doubt, and met Wei Mingyan's gentle and handsome face.
"You, who are you..."
Hearing grandma's weak voice, Xuan Lele quickly replied, "Grandma, this is my boyfriend, his name is Wei Mingyan, just call him Mingyan."
"Yes, grandma, I'm Lele's boyfriend, and I'm here to see you specially this time."
Putting the bowl aside, Wei Mingyan carefully helped the old man up, ready to feed her.
"Boyfriend..." Grandma Xuan repeated confusedly, then her eyes lit up, "My family is Lele, are you talking about friends?"
"Yes, Lele is very popular in our school. I worked hard to catch up with her and become her boyfriend."
Xuan Lele blushed when she heard her lover lie and praise herself without changing her face.
Grandma Xuan smiled happily, and lightly put her thin hands on Wei Mingyan's slender hands, "You and Lele go to the same school? How is she doing in school?"
Every time Xuan Lele called, she said it well, but Grandma Xuan was still worried that the child would lie to her for her peace of mind.
"Life is good. Lele goes to class every morning, eats in the cafeteria at noon, and goes to self-study in the evening, and goes back with her classmates in the dormitory. They have a good relationship, and go shopping after the holiday."
The smile on Grandma Xuan's face got bigger and bigger, she kept nodding, and heard the young boy supporting her continue, "Everyone in the school likes Lele, she is good-looking, and her academic performance is also good. , she always gets a scholarship, and even when she goes to the cafeteria to cook, the aunt in the cafeteria will give her an extra spoonful."
"However, Lele also has shortcomings. She is too frugal, and she always orders cheap ones. Later, when we got together, I bought vegetables and cooked them myself. Not to mention saving money, the food was much better than before."
"I have to do it myself, Lele, it's too cheap, and it's me who is being dragged down by the old woman, and I can't even afford to buy good-looking clothes..." If we talk about what Wei Wei said, there are still some If you don't believe it, if you suspect that he said good things, then after the granddaughter saves her in the latter sentence, she will completely believe it.
"Lele always lied to me that I was willing to buy things at school. If she was willing, why would she send money home every month? She saved it. Sometimes, seeing this child at such a young age, he is reluctant to buy clothes. , I wish I could go there sooner..."
Grandma Xuan was too emotional today, she started to sob after saying a few words.
She has an old smell on her body, it's not that she doesn't like cleanliness, it's just that she has a unique smell when she is old, and most people in the village don't want to get close to her, but Wei Mingyan patted her hand lightly, as if she didn't smell it, and comforted her, "Don't think so, Lele cares about you. After I'm with her, she's happiest when she calls you. Every time she hears your voice, she's very happy, smiles very sweetly, and says you It is her motivation to study, every time I listen to it, I get jealous."
"Come on, you lean here, I'll feed you chicken soup."
Grandma Xuan laughed from ear to ear, "Hey, why are you so jealous of me, an old woman? I will do it myself. I still have strength in my hands."
"It's okay, I'm your future grandson-in-law, what's wrong with feeding me chicken soup, grandma, let me tell you about Lele at school, she likes to go to the study room every time she has no class, when I chased her, I went The study room is quasi…”
Xuan Lele sat in front of her own small table, eating chicken soup bite by bite, her eyes fell on the two people sitting on the kang, seeing Grandma Xuan's smile that had never been so happy, she was shaken and said clearly, and then looked at Under the dim light, the handsome man was patiently feeding the old man spoonfuls of soup while telling interesting things about the school in a warm voice. His heart was warm and he felt at ease like never before.
After the old man finished drinking the soup and lay down to sleep warm all over, Wei Mingyan also sat at the table and said softly, "Lele, let's take grandma home."
"She is not in good health now, so she should be taken to the hospital for treatment as soon as possible. I have a doctor uncle I know in E City. Their hospital is not far from our school. When the time comes, I will bring my grandma to the hospital. You can still visit her from time to time."
Xuan Lele counted the remaining money in her hand. During this period of time, she also saved money for the live broadcast. She will definitely be able to survive in the short term, but in the long run...
"Don't be afraid, I have money here too, so don't always feel that it's not good to use my money. It's agreed to graduate and get married. Isn't mine yours? Besides, you have seen the environment in the village, even if it is If we don't take grandma away, are we going to leave her alone? Or are you asking for leave from school to stay with her?"
"It's better to take her to City E. We go to see her every day, and we usually take her downstairs for a walk. The old man's mood will be better, and his health will be better. If he stays in this ghost place, there will be no harm but no benefit."
The lover's words fell on her ears, Xuan Lele was persuaded, and her hesitant expression turned into firmness, "Okay, I'll take grandma out of here."
No matter how bad it is, it's not as good as being here.
She was incapable before, but now although she doesn't save a lot of money, the money she earns from live streaming every day makes Xuan Le feel a little bit more settled.
"Hey, I'll call a car. I'll leave here tomorrow with my grandma. You go and pack up your things first. I'll contact that uncle. Someone can do it."
"good!"
Now that the decision was made, Xuan Lele also stood up immediately, ready to tidy up.
She really didn't want to stay in this village for a second.
Wei Mingyan gave a few more words of advice and went out. He walked to the door of the village chief's house, looked at the fire on the opposite mountain, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, and before he pushed the door open, the door opened from the inside first. up.
The village chief came out of the house in a panic, and as soon as he opened the door, he saw a young man standing under the moon. He raised his eyebrows slightly on his pretty face, innocent and puzzled, "Village chief? What are you doing so late?"
"Qiu Wu called me and said that people in the village secretly dug his family's grave in the middle of the night. Didn't I rush over to help?"
After the village head answered subconsciously, he remembered what he had promised his son during the day. He hesitated for a second, then looked at Wei Mingyan, "Mr. Wei, do you think I should go?"
"Go, you are the village chief, if something happens in the village, of course you have to go."
Wei Mingyan smiled, "I'll go with you, too. They're making such a big fuss, and it's not easy for me to end it."
Thinking that the young man was also scared, the village chief nodded and hurried up the mountain ahead.
I can't hear it from the bottom, but when I reach the foot of the mountain, I can clearly hear the woman's shrill cry, "You dig my son's grave!! You will die!!"
The village chief stepped a little faster, and Wei Mingyan, who was following her, was still taking his time. The two soon reached the top of the mountain, and a small grave was already surrounded by people.
The villagers I saw during the day were holding shovels, some were holding flashlights, and there were still burnt black spots on the ground. It could be seen that someone had tried to set fire to the grave before.
Someone was talking to Qiu Wu, "Didn't you also dig Xuan's grave before? It wasn't you who told us during the day, let us come over a few nights and dig her secretly. Anyway, those are feudal superstitions. We are now So what happened to digging your family’s grave!!”
Qiu Wu's voice was hoarse, and he shouted hoarsely, "Are you willing to let me dig your family's grave?!!!"
"Didn't the boss say he wanted to move my house? Qiu Wu, didn't the boss say that there would be compensation? You don't want us to move the grave, do you think you don't have enough money? Why don't we make it up for you in the village?"
"Who wants your broken money!! My son is buried here, none of you are allowed to touch it!! No one is allowed!!"
"The Xuan family's grave is still buried with his daughter and son-in-law. Why did you touch it? Get out of the way quickly. Isn't it good for everyone to make money?"
The villagers were chattering, and seeing someone was going to push them, Qiu Wu yelled angrily, and held the stick thrown by someone on the ground next to him, with a fierce look in his hand, "Whoever dares to move My son's grave, who am I going to kill today!!"
"Come here if you don't want your life!!!"
As soon as these words came out, the villagers really looked at each other in blank dismay, not daring to make any moves.
"What's the noise!!"
When the voice of the village head came, Wei Mingyan followed behind him and said, "If this is the case, then forget it, and I don't want to make everyone look bad."
"I won't cover this mountain."
Of course, the money is gone
