Mr. Sand Sculpture

Chapter 30 Happy New Year's Day

When Chen Yan woke me up the next day, it was already nine o'clock.My father-in-law and mother-in-law went home early, and Aunt Li reheated the rice. There were still a lot of dumplings left over from yesterday. I put them in millet porridge and ate them together this morning. Millet porridge becomes vegetable porridge.

During the meal, Chen Yan handed me a letter: "The courier I received this morning."

"Who is it addressed to?" I picked it up and saw that the addressee was my old father, Mr. Xu Shu. The address was in a small mountain village in a remote county, and the sender's name was Mingming.

Obviously I know this person well. Although I have never met him before, I have known him for a long time.

It's a long story. Old Xu has been sponsoring a child in a mountainous area to study. He chanted the child's name to me every now and then. It was long and short, which made my ears callous.Old Xu liked this child from other people's family very much, and he also liked to compare him with me, saying how good he is and how hard-working he is; how lazy and disappointing I am.

Lao Xu intends to recognize his son, so he will take me and my mother to Mingming's house when he has time, and talk to his parents about it in person.

Counting his age, he should be 15 years old this year.

Ever since Lao Xu had an accident, I started to help him take care of Mingming...not to mention taking care of him, but sending him a little more money every month.In the past, Lao Xu and Mingming would exchange letters from time to time, and I didn't know what the old man usually said to others, so I didn't write them.I think, probably because I haven't received Lao Xu's letter for too long, so I asked.

I thought about it, and opened the letter sent by Mingming for Old Xu.Sure enough, after exchanging a few pleasantries, the child began to care about Lao Xu's health.This is also human nature. I haven't received a letter from my prospective relatives in [-], so I would think too much about it.

At the end of the letter, Mingming invited us to play at his home.He said that since Lao Xu mentioned in his letter last time that he was going to be a guest, he has been preparing for it, and the house and yard have been cleaned very clean.

I looked at the words "Dear Uncle Xu" on the letter, and the corners of my eyes felt a little sore.

The same is true of Lao Xu, he just hears the sound like farting when he speaks. He promised his child but couldn't do it. In the end, he had to rely on me, a dutiful son, to wipe his ass.The family’s children have been waiting for six or seven years. If I wait any longer, I’m afraid I’m going to turn into a stone bridge. It just so happens that I’ve saved several years of annual leave. I’ll draw up an application to grant myself a week’s leave, so I’ll go to the countryside to visit relatives for Xu. .

"Maomao?" Chen Yan glanced at the content of the letter just now, and said softly, "I can go with you, we are also a family."

I looked at him and put down the letter in my hand: "Then pack your things and go."

Chen Yan: "...huh?"

I was straightforward: "Leave in the afternoon."

Chen Yan: "...Oh."

He was nimble, and quickly dragged a suitcase downstairs, "Do we need to bring some small gifts?"

I'm an ordinary person who smells like copper, and Kit Kat's thoughts are really limited, so I can't think of any special little gift for Mingming.I don't know much about him, and I don't know what he likes.After much deliberation, I just felt that sending money was quite appropriate.Money can make Mo Tui ghosts, and then leave more for Mingming's family, so that people can buy whatever they want, wouldn't it be beautiful.

Me: "Go to the bank to get some more cash later."

Chen Yan: "...um."

I took a closer look at the address on the envelope, took a picture and sent it to Xiao Wu, and told him: "I'm going out for a week, you can take a look at the route to this place, the itinerary is up to you, two people, message later for you."

Xiao Wu: "!!!"

I:"???"

Xiao Wu: "Mr. Xu, I have something to say, I don't know whether to ask it or not...?"

Me: "Don't ask, shut up."

Xiao Wu: "Don't be like this! I'm just asking, do you want to find a small village with beautiful mountains and clear waters, fresh air, and no one to disturb you with your little object to spend a happy two-person world?"

This little Wu, with a mouth like a trumpet, talks a lot of nonsense.Suppose I say "yes", without waiting for the next day, my scandal will spread all over the company this afternoon, even the cleaning lady will have to ask about it.

Me: "No, don't talk nonsense."

Xiao Wu: "I understand, I understand, Mr. Xu don't worry, I promise to keep my mouth shut."

He understands again?

I instantly missed him.

However, Xiao Wu's efficiency is very high, which is inversely proportional to his driving skills.In less than 10 minutes, he planned the most time-saving route for me, and all the air tickets, train tickets and bus tickets were booked.He knew that I couldn't tell the difference between southeast and north, and he was afraid that I would lose it, so he specially compiled several maps with all the details marked, which can be called an upgraded version of AutoNavi.

I was about to praise Xiao Wu for a few words, and this careless person sent another message: "Mr. Xu, take care of your kidneys these days. There is a health care product on the Internet called 'Ye Li Meng', and men say it's good after using it. As your Secretary, if you need it, you can tell me, and I promise to keep my mouth shut."

What about "fierce at night"?

I was so angry that my teeth itched, I just wanted to find a bottle of "Mr. Mighty" to wash his mouth, clean his breath, and be myself again.

The author has something to say: I have worked overtime for the past two days, and I will continue to work tomorrow, it is too difficult for me QAQ

But still, Happy New Years to everyone!
