The old man selling cut cakes sighed, "How could his son agree? It's a blessing for me to take my father to the city. What would happen if he took me over again? After all, he is not my son. It's not easy to be filial to one person, and if you add me, life will definitely be difficult. It can only be said that fate is unpredictable, leaving me alone for the rest of my life, but I can't drag my brothers down."
"My brother had quarreled with his eldest nephew several times because of this matter. I also persuaded him many times to let him follow his eldest nephew to the city. Our village really couldn't continue to live. There was nothing, how could there be a city? It¡¯s very comfortable inside, especially since it¡¯s almost winter. As the saying goes, if you survive the winter, you¡¯ll have nothing to do for a year, but if you don¡¯t survive the winter, it¡¯ll be a lifetime.¡±
"How many elderly people just can't survive this winter. Some people even died a year ago and can't even survive the whole year. Firstly, it's cold. Secondly, we're bumping into each other in winter. This is no small matter. , if he falls, he basically can¡¯t stand up. I have been worried about him. His health is not as good as mine and he is still taking medicine. If he is at my son¡¯s house, there is heating in the house in winter. Needless to say, he has to go out all day. Just move around, watch TV at home, and wait for dinner.
He doesn't listen, no matter what, he just doesn't listen. Not only did he have a quarrel about this matter two days ago, he has a stubborn temper. Once he is sure about something, he won't do it at all. Change, there is nothing I can do about it. "
Jiang Tian couldn¡¯t help but feel moved when he heard the uncle¡¯s complaint, and said in a questioning tone: ¡°Uncle, what do you think of our village?¡±
"Okay, very good. I also know Taoshan Village. I also know Zhang Huaihua from your village."
"Zhang Huaihua?" Jiang Tian was confused now. He had never heard of this name.
"The one whose husband passed away has a son named Daniel."
"Oh, that's it, I understand." Jiang Tian understood. Only their peers knew the names of this older generation.
"Zhang Huaihua is from our village. She married here a long time ago. The last time I came here was two years ago. I was selling cut cakes at the market and I met her. She was carrying a big bag. It was very strenuous to carry the farm tools, so I helped her bring them back. At that time, your village was in tatters and had nothing, just like my village. At that time, there were old people being picked up by their children. I guess In a few years, almost everyone in Taoshan Village will be gone.
I never expected that the village would turn out like this. Look at this road and these telegraph poles. It¡¯s so nice. "
Uncle Ke Cake said the words "really good" countless times. It was obvious that he was really envious.
Jiang Tian struck while the iron was hot and said: "Uncle, you have already said that there are not many people in your village. How about you and your brothers move here?"
"What?" The cake-cutting uncle looked surprised, "Did I hear you right? Do you want us to come here?"
"Yes, of course. If you don't want to, you don't have to force it."
"No, no, I am willing, of course I am, but is it okay? It's not that simple to just go to another village casually. It also requires the consent of the village chief. Moreover, there is no place for the two of us to live here. , Winter is coming soon, and it is unrealistic for us to build a new house in a short period of time." Uncle Cake rambled, he really wanted to come, but the conditions did not allow it.
Dong Shihao said with a smile: "Uncle, don't worry about this. Jiang Tian is the village chief of Taoshan Village. Anyone who wants to come over can come as long as you agree. There is no need to worry about this house, it is available in the village." "
As Jiang Tian's best friend, how could he not see Jiang Tian's thoughts? One sells rice cakes and the other sells cut cakes, and they both taste very good. These are two old people with a lot of craftsmanship. Others think they are a burden. , but to Jiang Tian, ??that is a treasure.
What's more, the number of people in Taoshan Village is still small now. It would be a good thing to have more people.
The cake-cutting uncle was really moved, "Okay, I'll go back and discuss it with my brother."
With that said, he was about to leave. Dong Shihao quickly called out: "Uncle, we haven't finished cutting the cake yet."
"Oh, yes, I forgot about it."
The cake-cutting uncle cut half of the cake and put it down, then pushed the cart and speeded up to the market to find his brother.
Dong Shihao asked: "Don't you want to develop cake cutting?"
Jiang Tian nodded, "He who knows me is a world-famous person!"
"Tsk, you are showing off your classical Chinese here, and you are sticking your butt out"
Before he could finish speaking, Jiang TianLooking over, Dong Shihao quickly made a gesture of begging for mercy, "Stop talking, I'll eat the cake."
Dong Shihao held a piece of cut cake and ate it with gusto, "This cut cake tastes really delicious. It's much better than those that cost dozens or hundreds of yuan per catty. It can be used as a snack in a restaurant." The main focus is a restaurant, which means everything is available, not a specialty snack bar, there are only a few kinds of snacks, but now the restaurant happens to be a staple food with good taste and quality, and the cake cutting is completely competent."
Jiang Tian: "These cut cakes are made of ordinary materials, and the taste is already quite good. If they are replaced with raw materials grown at home, the taste will be even better. This kind of cut cakes will still be retained. It¡¯s better to come down. It would be a pity to cut off the inheritance just like that.¡±
"And the two uncles can completely rely on their skills of cutting cakes and rice cakes to support themselves, not relying on village relief."
Song Guoqiang also cut a piece of cake and ate it. Hearing his words, he nodded in agreement, "The older generation of people have worked hard to get rich. If they are really idle, it will be easy for them to get into trouble. I agree. In the community where the house is located, something like this happened some time ago. The old couple was picked up by their son, thinking that they could enjoy the happiness in the city, but well, they have been farming all their lives, and there is no need for them at all. I'm used to it, so I got up early in the morning and borrowed a hoe from someone, and dug up a piece of the green belt in the community, saying I was going to plant vegetables in it."
"At that time, the people in the community reported it to the property management, and the property management came to stop it. If the property management people didn't know their son, they would have kicked him out. I heard they lost money, so the matter ended like this. "
"I didn't see those two old people again after that. It was said that they couldn't stand the life here. When they returned to their homes in the countryside, they just couldn't relax. They were used to growing things, raising things, etc. Anyway, it was convenient to eat. , In fact, living in the countryside is quite good, but education, medical care, shopping, etc. are all inconvenient. If it can be solved, many people will want to live in the village." (Remember this site. Website: www.hlnovel.com
