Chapter 29 Educated Youth of the 7s 29

under the moonlight.

There were four square tables and several benches in the yard. A long bamboo pole was erected on the wall next to the village chief's house. A temporary wire was pulled from the house, and the warm yellow light from the light bulb illuminated the yard.

Several children were held in their mothers' arms, and four tables barely accommodated everyone.

The sumptuous meals on the table exuded a fragrant aroma that made even adults drool, let alone children.

"You kid is spending money lavishly." The village chief was still distressed.

I have never had such a sumptuous meal during the Chinese New Year. If Yuan Xi hadn't thrown the food into the kitchen first, then the village chief would have never let him spend so much money.

What the village chief regrets most now is that he didn't agree to Yuan Xi's decision to eat out at a state-owned hotel that day. Compared with the cost of these ingredients, going out to a restaurant is such a bargain.

Yuan Xi really wanted to invite everyone to have a meal at a state-owned hotel at first. It was convenient and all he had to do was give money and tickets, and the chefs in the state-owned hotels in the county were also pretty good. As a result, when he mentioned it to the village chief, the village chief disagreed and refused to let him spend the unjust money. After talking too much, the little old man became anxious and threatened to scare the monkeys. He told the captain that he would break his legs if he dared to go.

The innocent captain who was watching:? ? ? Who did I offend?

In order to save the captain's leg and take care of the village chief's mood, Yuan Xi stopped mentioning the restaurant. Mainly because he thought about it and found that there were too many people to invite, and the small place of the county state-owned hotel could not fit in.

Since the village chief doesn't want to go out because he is old, it would be good to set up a few tables at home.

It just so happens that the ingredients are all available in the warehouse, and they are very complete.

The only thing that was not too inconvenient was that Yuan Xi had never cooked except for making dumplings, so he had to work hard for He Liang and Aunt Guihua to cook.

"It doesn't cost much. Grandpa Zhou, please give it a try."

Yuan Xi told the truth, and he didn't spend a penny.

The oldest and most senior village chief had not yet moved his chopsticks, and no one else dared to do so first.

Goudan's mouth watered with greed, his stomach growled, and he looked eagerly at Grandpa Zeng, waiting for him to give the signal to start eating.

Yuan Xi urged twice, and the village chief also felt the increasingly resentful looks around him. The matter was a done deal and without saying anything, he stretched out his hand to pick up a chopstick of meat.

The next second, swish, swish, chopsticks were flying on the table, leaving afterimages. With the children's cheers suddenly ending, everyone ate without raising their heads.

The meat on the village chief's chopsticks had just been put into the bowl. When he saw this scene, he felt deeply ashamed. He looked at the other people at the same table, and finally fixed his eyes on the captain, his eyes filled with evil meaning. The captain was concentrating on the rice without raising his head. He just felt a chill on his back. He scratched it without taking it to heart, and his chopsticks flew up.

As long as he looks up and sees his father's face, he won't be troubled every day in the next few months.

There was plenty of food and wine, and the dishes on the table were in a mess. After finishing the cleaning together, we divided the remaining food among ourselves. It was getting late and everyone went back to their homes.

Yuanxi's train is the day after tomorrow. He will leave for the provincial capital tomorrow and rest there for one night. The drive from the county seat to the provincial capital is still unforgettable when he thinks about it, yue ~

But today is different from the past. He is no longer the same person as before. It is trivial to close his sense of smell.

His things were also sorted. The two quilts, pillows, and clothes sent from home were all made by Chen's mother stitch by stitch. Yuan Xi packed them into a package and sent them back through the post office. The other supplies were all bought here or obtained by signing in. They were all small gadgets. He had no intention of taking them back, but planned to stay here as a thank you to the village chief for letting him live here for free for two years.

Oh, and the only big item, the bicycle he bought. The gadgets in the house are okay, but the village chief will definitely not accept this bicycle.

In the end, Yuan Xi sold it to Zhou Mao at a bargain price of fifty yuan. Zhou Mao did not agree with the lower price, and Yuan Xi's offer of ten yuan was severely rejected.

Zhou Mao saved more than 30 yuan over the years, and borrowed another dozen yuan from his father before he finally collected 50 yuan. He happily took his bicycle home. The quality of the bicycle is quite good. It has been used for two years. Except for scratches in a few places, it is almost like new if you don't look carefully and wash it.

When Yuan Xi left, he was carrying a suitcase and a crossbody bag just like when he came. This time the bag contained the food He Liang had cooked for him. The village chief and team leader escorted him out of the village. Xu Wenjie drove him to the county station, with He Liang and Xu Wenhui riding on both sides.

Yuan Xi looked at the familiar car and familiar driver, and the dead memory attacked him again. He sat down in the car and looked out through the car window. The Xu family brothers and sisters were holding each other's arms and crying. He Liang looked around awkwardly and silently stayed away from them.

They cried sadly, but Yuan Xi sympathized with He Liang in the car.

The vehicle started, and after a while, their figures gradually disappeared. A few hours later, Yuan Xi arrived at the provincial capital smoothly. There was still plenty of time for the train tomorrow. He did a little shopping and bought some local specialties in the department store, planning to take them back and give them away.

After spending one night in the guest house closest to the train station, Yuan Xi got on the train smoothly the next day.

The tickets for the return trip were still for the soft sleeper box. This time, He Liang and the others bought the tickets through their family connections.

Yuan Xi did not refuse. Who would not think of sitting on a hard seat if he could sleep on a sleeper berth? Sitting was not as comfortable as lying down. At the end of the day, his buttocks were numb.

It's very interesting. The items signed in these two days are still piles of gold, silver and jade, which is in line with what Wuba said about the road to wealth for poor families. Yuan Xi couldn't help but guess, if he went out often, would he give him so much "travel expenses" every time?

At the Beijing station, the train arrived and there was a huge flow of people.

A dense crowd, Chen's father, Chen's mother, and the eldest and second brothers came to pick them up, standing on tiptoes and looking around, looking for Yuan Xi's figure.

There were a lot of people, and Yuan Xi relied on mental cheating to find them.

After two years, relatives reunited.

As soon as Chen's mother saw her little son, she started to shed tears. She held Yuan Xi's hand and said nonsense: "You've lost weight. Everyone has lost weight. Mom will make up for you when you get home."

Yuan Xi, who is living a good life and gaining weight:...

Well, if you think I have lost weight, then I have lost weight.

Chen's father was also very emotional. He hadn't seen his youngest son in two years. He wanted to say something, but unfortunately he was stupid and didn't want to talk nonsense like his wife. Finally, he patted Yuan Xi on the shoulder and said, "Let's go home."

Yuan Xi stood between Chen's father and Chen's mother, and the three of them walked side by side. Chen Yuannian and Chen Yuansheng were walking behind with their luggage and bags on their backs.

When he got home, his room was still as it was, clean and tidy, and there was a faint smell of sunshine on the quilt and pillows. After putting things in the house, he went to the living room of the main house to eat. The whole family was waiting for him to start eating.
