There is a mountain in her arms
Chapter 27 4 years
Gu Yuxuan was so happy these days that he didn't want to go home until his parents came on the 15th day, when he suddenly remembered that he had to go to school.
"Uncle and aunt, this is my wife Jiang Fengying." Gu Yanbang took his wife to introduce her to the two elders.
Jiang Fengying was a beautiful woman with heroic looks, delicate features and a smile on her lips.
"Uncle and aunt, we are really sorry to trouble you to take care of Yuxuan during this period of time."
Jiang Fengying was very respectful to the two elders and even glanced at the son behind them.
"No, no, he doesn't need us to take care of him, he's very sensible!"
"Mom, why are you here?"
Gu Yuxuan was a little confused!
"We're here to take you home! Don't you want to go to school anymore?"
"Ouch! So fast?"
Gu Yuxuan held his head in disbelief, and Jiang Fengying couldn't help but roll her eyes.
"Chengcheng, do you still remember Aunt Jiang? We met before."
Jiang Fengying smiled tenderly at Jiang Yichen. Her father had saved her husband's life, so she was filled with gratitude.
"Aunt Jiang, I remember you gave me sweet-scented osmanthus cake before."
"Yes, you still remember! I'll buy it for you next time. I forgot to bring it today."
"No, don't bother. Come, come in and sit down. Yuxuan will get something for your mother."
The old couple enthusiastically led them to sit down, and Grandma Jiang even made them some sugar water to drink.
"Uncle and Auntie, we are here today to pick up Yuxuan and to celebrate the Lantern Festival at your house."
"Ah! Welcome! Welcome! We only have simple food and drink, please don't be disgusted!"
"Why is it such a simple meal? Mom, you don't know that grandma's cooking is so delicious."
Gu Yuxuan interrupted and made a look to his mother that said you know what I mean.
Jiang Fengying's mouth froze for a moment, but she quickly recovered and looked at him calmly.
"Who told you to have a mother like me who is not good at cooking? You have no choice in this life. Please bear with me."
"Haha! Mom, that's not what I meant. That's what Dad said."
Unexpectedly, the fire would burn himself. Gu Yanbang could not even watch the show and explained with his strong desire to survive.
"Honey, I never said that. Think about it, my cooking skills are pretty bad, so how could I dislike yours?"
"hehe!"
Guess whether I believe it or not! Jiang Fengying sneered at them.
Gu Yanbang felt a little depressed, and a cold wind swept over his son.
"Gu Yuxuan, why do I feel like you've gained weight after not seeing you for a few days? Come, let me loosen your bones!"
Gu Yanbang lifted his son's shoulders and went to the yard.
The old couple didn't understand what was going on and were a little worried. They were just about to go and try to persuade them, but were stopped by Jiang Fengying.
"Uncle and aunt, they are just joking! Gu Yanbang wants to test him to see if he has been lazy these days. Don't worry."
Jiang Yichen had already sneaked out. Grandma Jiang was talking to Jiang Fengying. Grandpa Jiang felt a little embarrassed and also walked out.
An An walked over slowly with his short legs and grabbed his grandfather's trouser leg.
Gu Yuxuan has not relaxed these days. He has been practicing martial arts with Jiang Zitao every day. Jiang Yichen would occasionally join in, so his grades have not regressed.
Jiang Yicheng was jealous and jumped over to join in. The two of them were fighting against Gu Yanbang, and Gu Yanbang had to use his best skills.
Jiang Fengying heard the noise and came out. She was a little surprised to see that Jiang Yichen was not inferior to Gu Yuxuan.
"Auntie, Chengcheng really has the style of his father!"
"hehe!"
Grandma Jiang is also very proud.
When the three of them separated, they all had injuries on their faces, especially Gu Yanbang, whose eyes turned into panda eyes.
"You two little bastards, why are you so harsh?"
"Dad, you're not gentle with me! Look at my eyes!"
"That's right, Uncle Gu, I'm a girl. Look at my chin. It might be too light."
"Oh! Let me see, Lao Gu, Chengcheng is a girl, you'd better not disfigure her. Oh! It's really blue, and a little red. Auntie, boil a hard-boiled egg quickly."
When Jiang Fengying heard this, she lifted up Jiang Yichen's face to check it out with concern, and did not forget to mention Gu Yanbang.
Gu Yanbang was speechless. The two of them had hit him harder, and he had held back a little.
"Mom, I'm your own son, don't you even look at me?"
Gu Yuxuan complained deliberately, but Jiang Fengying didn't buy it at all.
"You are a boy, with thick skin and flesh, it's okay to have some scars."
"Ouch!"
Gu Yuxuan fell to the ground, and An An ran over and threw himself on him. Gu Yuxuan was caught off guard and was hit in the chest by the fat boy. His facial features were distorted in pain, and Grandpa Jiang quickly picked up An An.
"Yuxuan, are you okay?"
"I'm fine!"
Gu Yuxuan almost gritted his teeth.
Grandma Jiang cooked a pot of eggs, and the three of them rolled the eggs on their faces.
An An also joined in the fun and insisted on taking one. Grandpa Jiang peeled the egg for him and fed him the egg with a spoon.
Grandma Jiang and Jiang Fengying were busy in the kitchen. Jiang Fengying said that she wanted to learn a few tricks from them so as to avoid being disliked by the two people in the family.
Looking at the dishes made by Grandma Jiang, Jiang Fengying finally understood her son's feelings.
Braised roe deer meat, pheasant stewed with mushrooms, steamed spare ribs with rice flour, stir-fried bacon with garlic sprouts, pork with pickled mustard greens, stewed eggs with minced meat, stir-fried green vegetables, and a pot of stewed white rice with Chinese sausage.
"This is really rich, no wonder your son doesn't want to go back!"
"If it wasn't so far away, I would also like to come here every day for free meals."
Jiang Fengying felt a little emotional. Who would have thought that Gu Yanbang, this blockhead, would subconsciously say something that made her feel so upset.
But looking at the huge table of delicious food, she could only put it aside for the time being.
Gu Yanbang and his son at the table were moving their chopsticks very quickly. Jiang Fengying felt a little embarrassed, but she couldn't control herself.
There was not much food left on the table, and Jiang Fengying blushed a little.
"I'll be happy when you finish eating! That proves that my cooking is delicious. This is a recognition of me."
Grandma Jiang said happily.
"Auntie, your cooking is so delicious! I'm so full today!"
After a short rest after dinner, the Gu family was about to go home, and Grandma Jiang prepared some dishes for them.
Jiang Fengying couldn't refuse the kindness and had to accept it. Grandma Jiang also specially made a new set of clothes for Gu Yuxuan using the defective cloth that Jiang Yichen bought last time, which was light green in color.
"The fabric isn't very good, please don't be disgusted."
"Ma'am, your craftsmanship is really good! What's wrong with this fabric? The fabric you bought here doesn't look defective at all. It's just as good as the ones displayed in the mall."
Jiang Fengying coaxed Grandma Jiang into smiling from ear to ear with just a few words and invited them to come and play when they had time.
Jiang Fengying also invited them to her home to play. They sent them to the village entrance and only went home after seeing their bicycles go away.
"Grandpa, I told Brother Yuxuan, he will find a way to get us a bicycle ticket, then we can buy a bicycle."
"That's really troublesome for them!"
The Gu family was also talking about this on the way back. Gu Yanbang took Gu Yuxuan, and Jiang Fengying each rode a bicycle with a lot of things tied on it.
"Let's both look around. The Jiang family is very kind. We can eat and take it."
Jiang Fengying was very satisfied with this trip. She knew her husband wanted to make it up to them, but she had some secret worries in her heart. After getting to know them in person, she was completely relieved.
"Mom, I eat the same thing every day at Jiang's house. I think your worries are unnecessary. They don't need to rely on our family at all. The people they know are much more powerful than our family, right, Dad?"
Gu Yuxuan knew his mother’s previous worries, so when his father suggested taking him to play, he agreed.
"Not bad!"
Gu Yanbang then told them how they knew the Chi family and Mr. Qi.
"Tsk tsk, it seems that I am being mean. Old Gu, I'm sorry, I will treat them sincerely in the future."
Jiang Fengying was able to let go of the matter and apologized promptly.
"It's okay, you didn't do anything anyway. The two old people are very strong-willed and won't give in easily. As for the two children, the younger one is not obvious yet, but the older one will probably be fine when he grows up."
The conversation between the three people gradually disappeared in the wind.
In the afternoon, the whole family gathered together to make glutinous rice balls. Even An An was making trouble. His hands and face were covered with flour, like a little cat.
After the Lantern Festival, college students in the village began to go to school one after another.
The educated youth from the village who passed the exam completed all the formalities and returned to the city before the New Year.
The educated youth who stayed behind were all eager to prepare for the college entrance examination six months later.
The villagers didn't make things difficult for them. As long as they didn't cause trouble and didn't want to work, they didn't have to work. Anyway, they wouldn't be given any food if they didn't work.
Jiang Yicheng was still in the fourth grade at the beginning of the year. Grandpa Jiang registered for her and got her textbooks. Her life remained unchanged and went on as usual.
But the correspondence between her and the capital increased. There were parcels from Chi Yuan, books from Old Qi, and even Old Sun and his wife sent her a lot of books. Even the uncommunicative Old Master Wang sent her a parcel.
Although Mr. Wang always has a sense of decadence about him, Mr. Chi and others are always very secretive when talking about him.
Jiang Yichen heard Chi Yuan talk about his experience indirectly, and it seemed that all the misfortunes in the world fell on him.
His lover of many years passed away due to an accident, and the son he had raised with great care broke off relations with him in order to protect himself.
Although he knew that their choice was not wrong, couldn't they wait until the seventh day after their mother's death?
I heard that this time when he went back, he refused the country's appointment, took the subsidy and went to a nursing home, and was unwilling to see his son who came to visit him.
Perhaps you can only see people's hearts when facing danger! Many people made the same choice as him.
In a blink of an eye, more than four years passed and Jiang Yichen became a third-year junior high school student.
Over the past four years, the country has undergone tremendous changes. Elementary school has become a six-year system, and junior and senior high schools have become three-year systems.
Jiang Yichen avoided elementary school, but could not avoid the reform of junior high school and high school.
The most important thing is that the country carried out land reform, abolished public ownership, and implemented the distribution of land to each household.
This move can be said to be quite wise. It cuts off many cases of people taking advantage of the situation and can also urge people to yearn for a better life.
The changes in the city are also very obvious. In the past two years, more and more small vendors have been active on the streets.
Jiang Yichen and her grandfather also took advantage of this opportunity to buy the fruits in the space several more times.
At present, they have already become households with an annual income of 10,000 yuan, and are even heading towards 50,000 yuan.
Of course, this goal is still half achieved. If we are not afraid to take action, it will be achieved sooner or later.
In order to have a legitimate reason to be his disciple in the future, Grandpa Jiang deliberately did not choose good farmland, but asked for a few acres of mountain land next to their home.
For this reason, Grandpa Jiang came specially to find him, and seeing that Grandpa Jiang had his own ideas, he stopped trying to persuade him.
Grandpa Jiang hired someone to clear away the gravel and weeds on the mountain, and also built a thorny fence around it.
Then he planted the fruit seedlings that he had cultivated in the space, which he said he had bought from the city, on the mountain. He fertilized and watered them every day, taking good care of them.
Taking advantage of the fact that the fruit trees were not big enough, he planted grains among the fruit trees. This made the villagers laugh at him, but Grandpa Jiang ignored him.
Gu Yuxuan really did what he said that year, and came to Jiangcha Village to learn foreign languages with Jiang Yicheng during the winter and summer vacations. For this reason, Jiang Fengying and her husband came to send gifts every ten days or half a month, fearing that the Jiang family would suffer losses.
When Gu Yuxuan came to Jiangcha Village, he was like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins, wandering around the mountains all day long.
Jiang Yicheng was afraid that something might happen to him, so he specially taught him the Shaw style leg technique that he had figured out.
He learned a lot in two or three years. During the Chinese New Year, he showed his skills in front of his family. He was noticed by a big shot in the army and was selected to join the army at the age of sixteen.
"Chengcheng, which high school do you want to go to?"
Jiang Ziqing was already fourteen years old, tall and graceful, half a year older than Jiang Yicheng, who was only in the second grade of junior high school at that time.
"No. 1 Middle School in the city!"
"Then you're going to live on campus?"
You should know that Jiang Yichen taught himself throughout elementary school, and even for junior high school, he had to rely on Jiang Fengying to negotiate the conditions so that he could study at home.
But she had to ensure that she always ranked first in her grades, which was more demanding than the requirements in elementary school, but this did not pose a problem for her.
"No need, Grandpa has asked Uncle Gu to find a house for us near the No. 1 Middle School in the city."
"We? Are Second Grandpa and Second Grandma An'an going?"
Jiang Ziqing was shocked by the word "we" in her words.
"Yes! There happens to be an affiliated primary school near the No. 1 Middle School in the city, and An An can go to school there."
"But An An is only six years old. Does he have to go to school early, too? Help! Do you two siblings want to keep me alive? No wonder Zi Xiao doesn't like playing with An An anymore."
Jiang Zixiao is four years older than An An, and is always teased by him. At such a young age, he is like a little fox, but the key is that he doesn't let people notice, and Jiang Zixiao is always tricked.
Later I was afraid of him when I saw him. When I was a child I wished I could grow up in his house, but now I try not to visit him.
"Haha! An An is indeed a bit unreasonable. I will talk to him next time and ask him to save some face for his cousin."
"Oh! I thank you on his behalf! But now that you guys are going to the county, who will be there to protect me? I'm going to be in the third grade soon. If it weren't for you, my mom wouldn't want me to go."
Jiang Ziqing sneered at first, then complained, and finally felt a little unwilling.
Jiang Yichen knew that with the development of society, Jiang Weiguo’s salary could no longer afford the tuition for his three children.
The family's expenses were high, and the harvest from the fields was limited. The Jiang family also had an unmarried uncle, so the old couple had to leave some for their youngest son, and this conflict gradually emerged.
Zhou Lanhua meant that Jiang Ziqing should stop going to school, as he could still help out at home. Jiang Weiguo disagreed, as he knew the benefits of studying, but he couldn't explain it to Zhou Lanhua, who had never been to school.
The old couple of the Jiang family didn't agree in their hearts, but they were powerless. They had to take care of their son first, and Grandpa Jiang's hair turned white with worry over this.
"You still have to go to school. This is the only way out for rural children like us. Do you want to stay in this small mountain village for the rest of your life? I see that the county has been opened up. Why don't you go there and start a small business? I see that grandpa and grandma can still help with the farm work. This is also a way out."
"But what can my mother do?"
Jiang Ziqing was also somewhat tempted.
"No matter what you do, you can't do without food, clothing, shelter, transportation, delicious food, fun things, and beautiful things. Think about these!"
