Chapter 1057 Everyone Goes and Comes Back (22)

It was Xiaonian who opened the door.

She had been waiting in the yard for a long time. As soon as she heard some movement outside the door, she couldn't wait to come out and take a look. Sure enough, she saw Xiaobai and Xi'er.

The three children gathered together and murmured, and Xiaonian's grandfather welcomed Zhang Tan and Tan Jin'er into the house.

Xiaonian's grandfather was named Chen Yungui. He opened the iron door completely and invited Zhang Tan and Tan Jin'er to sit inside.

The yard is not big, it is covered with dirt, oh! I thought I was in a vegetable garden, it was full of greenery and vitality. Zhang Tan glanced around and recognized peppers, eggplants, beans, green vegetables, tomatoes, as well as chickens and ducks.

This yard is more like a vegetable garden, with a gravel path running through it and leading directly to the back room.

Chen Yungui took the initiative to introduce them to them: "I have grown some vegetables in the yard. They are self-sufficient and they grow very well. I will pick some for you later. They are all natural and have no fertilizer."

Zhang Tan suddenly remembered that once, when he first came to Xiaohongma in Xiaonian, Chen Yungui brought a handful of green vegetables, a handful of beans and a basket of green peppers to his door. He also said that they were all natural and grown by himself. Fertilize, please give it a try.

At that time, he was too kind to refuse, so he accepted it. Later, it seems that he gave it to Lao Li and took it home. He can't remember clearly.

Caiwazi is very meticulously organized, and you can tell that someone is taking care of it regularly. The vegetables grow lush and full of color.

Entering the house, the interior is old and there are very few furnitures, and the only ones that have a sense of age.

It can almost be described as a house with only four walls.

There are many cartoons and posters of film and television stars on the walls. Zhang Tan saw the goddess Xu Biling. Next to Xu Biling, there was a poster of four puppies playing and chasing each other... It was obvious that the paintings on the walls were not carefully selected and posted, but more like one after another. It is formed over time, so there is no particular layout.

An old woman came out of the room, poured a cup of hot tea for Zhang Tan and Tan Jin'er, and invited them to have some snacks.

After the introduction, we learned that this was Xiaonian’s grandmother, named Yang Lan.

"I'm going to prepare the cooking first. Please come and eat here at noon." Grandma Yang said.

Tan Jin'er said quickly: "No need to bother, Zhang Tan and I will leave shortly. Just let Xiaobai and Xi'er stay here with Xiaonian."

Grandma Yang said with a smile: "No trouble, this is the first time a guest comes to our house."

She turned and went to the kitchen, leaving Mr. Chen to talk to them.

Zhang Tan asked: "Is this the ancestral home?"

Chen Yungui: "It's rented. Our hometown is in a village on the outskirts of Pujiang, not in Huangjia Village."

"How much does it cost per month?"

"600 yuan..."

Just when Zhang Tan wanted to say it was so cheap, Mr. Chen said: "It's quite expensive. It used to be more expensive, costing 1,000 yuan. After living here for a year, the landlord said, I'll give you a lower price every month. If you don't live in this house, it's okay." No one is living in it anymore. It’s a bit cheaper every month. It’s still 600 yuan now. It can be cheaper if we stay longer... The landlord is a good person.”

Zhang Tan learned from the chat that Chen Yungui and Yang Lan both worked in a nearby community, doing property cleaning.

"I can drive and operate a sweeper in the community."

"I've seen it, but I've never driven it."

"I also learned it on my own, and I didn't know how to do it before."

…

During the chat, Zhang Tan's cell phone rang. It was Zhu Xiaojing, Liliu's mother.

Zhang Tan guessed that he couldn't find the way to ask for directions, and when he answered, it turned out to be the case.

"I'll go pick them up outside."

Zhang Tan went out and came to the yard. Xiaobai, Xi'er and Xiaonian were squatting in front of a row of eggplants, chatting silly.

He walked through the vegetable field and went out. After walking for a long time, he found Zhu Xiaojing and Liuliu who were lost.

Liliu was listless and pestered her mother to carry her.

Zhu Xiaojing said: "Do you want to tire your mother to death? You are so heavy, the weather is so hot, and you have walked for such a long time, and you still need me to carry you?!! It is not easy for me to give birth to you, and to raise you like this Big, you have to be filial to me. Why don't you carry me? Mom can't walk. Can't you fly? If it weren't for your birthday, I would fly. Will you get lost here?…”

Liuliu was confused by what he said. It took him a while to digest it before he said, "Mother Zhu, do you want some water? Here you go."

Zhu Xiaojing rolled her eyes. This child was very smart, but he didn't need to be in the right place.

They saw Zhang Tan and were led to Xiaonian's house.

Zhang Tan continued to go out. Although the other companies didn't call to ask for directions, it was quite difficult to find this place. He came to a fork in the road, called them one by one, sent them their location, and finally gathered them together.

The yard is lively with Xiaobai, Xier, Liuliu, Dudu, Xiaomi and Chengcheng.

This is a group of besties who just want to have fun and don’t want to work.

In addition, there are Xiao Youyou, Shi Baobao, Xiao Zhengzheng, and Xiao Yuanyuan, who are Xiaonian's good friends.

Tan Xier introduced the names of the vegetables in the yard to Zhang Tan. After a while, everyone came out and talked about something.

Zhu Xiaojing said: "Let's go back."

Cheng Cheng's father Meng Guangxin also said: "Let's go."

Everyone agreed to leave.

Zhang Tan was taken aback and hurried over to ask what was going on.

I've just arrived, how could I just leave? I haven't even celebrated Xiaonian's birthday yet.

Zhu Xiaojing explained: "We plan to leave without increasing the burden on their family."

Zhang Tan stopped him: "Then let's celebrate Xiaonian's birthday first before leaving. Otherwise, why are you all here? Why don't you just sit back and sit down after you've already arrived?"

Zhu Xiaojing said on behalf of everyone: "There are so many of us, and it will be too much of a burden for them. Boss Zhang, don't worry. What we mean is that we adults will go, and the children will stay here to play with Xiaonian. We will pick them up in the afternoon."

Zhang sighed: "This..."

Meng Guangxin said: "Boss Zhang, I have to trouble you again. It's not good for us to leave. At least one person should stay. Otherwise, we are really worried."

Zhang Tan finally agreed, but took Tan Jiner with him. The two of them stayed and the others left first.

Chen Yungui and Yang Lan, the old couple, hurried out of the house to keep them, but everyone really couldn't bear to add burden to them. To make such a meal, the cost must be not small for them.

Not long after they left, Meng Guangxin came back. He didn't go into the house, but waved to Zhang Tan in the alley and asked him to go out.

After leaving the yard, Zhang Tan saw Meng Guangxin carrying many things in large and small bags, including meat, fish, noodles...

"What is this?" Zhang Tan asked.

Meng Guangxin smiled shyly and said, "It's for Xiaonian's family. I happened to see a small vegetable market when I was going back just now, so I bought some. I won't go in. Boss Zhang, can you help carry it in?"

Zhang Tan said in embarrassment, "How should I explain?"

Meng Guangxin hesitated for a moment and said, "Why don't you just say you picked it up?"

He really couldn't think of a good excuse, so he started to make up a story.

Zhang Tan was speechless, "You can't even fool Xiaonian!"

Meng Guangxin laughed. He really couldn't fool a child. He used to dress up as a woman to fool Xiao Chengcheng, but Xiao Chengcheng saw it and played along with him.

Zhang Tan waved his hand, "Go, I'll find a way to say it."

"Hey, thank you." Meng Guangxin left.

Zhang Tan thought about it with a headache, and met Tan Jiner in the yard. He told Tan Jiner what happened, and the two of them delivered the things to Chen Yungui together, saying that they were gifts for buying things.

After finally getting them to accept it, Zhang Tan's phone rang. It was Zhu Xiaojing's phone. Zhu Xiaojing asked him to go to the alley mysteriously.

Zhang Tan went out to see that Zhu Xiaojing was also carrying a lot of things in her hands, and there was a box of milk at her feet.

Tan Jiner was waiting for Zhang Tan in the yard. Seeing that he came back with a lot of things, she stretched her neck to look at the alley outside, but the wall blocked it and she couldn't see anything.

"Who sent it again?"

"Mom Liuliu."

A child's voice suddenly sounded in the distance, and a crisp "Hey~~" was answered. Zhang Tan's face suddenly darkened, and Tan Jiner held back from laughing.

Zhang Tan glared at Liuliu who was spinning in the vegetable garden mercilessly, and held back from using his trump card to make her cry.

Tan Jiner relieved Zhang Tan's embarrassment and asked, "How do you explain this time?"

"It was sent for recharging the phone bill." Zhang Tan said unhappily, too lazy to think so much, and then realized that his tone was not very good, and looked at Tan Jiner apologetically, meaning that it was not directed at her, but at the Xiao Shen family.

…

If it was given as a gift for recharging the phone bill, it must have been a one-time charge for all the phone bills for the rest of your life, otherwise it would be impossible to give so many things. After Meng Guangxin and Zhu Xiaojing sent the things, Shi Baobao's mother, Young Lady Li, also sent a lot of things. She was more direct and asked Zhang Tan to pick them up in the store. He could take whatever he liked, and she would pay for it later.

…

As for how to explain and how to persuade Chen Yungui and Yang Lan to accept them, that was a headache for Zhang Tan and Tan Jiner. Anyway, the things were already bought and could not be returned.

A group of children, led by Grandma Yang, helped pick vegetables in the yard, picking peppers, picking beans, and cutting eggplants...

Grandma Yang and Tan Jiner went back to the kitchen to cook, and Xiaobai and everyone stayed to supervise Liuliu to replant the pepper tree. This guy picked peppers but pulled up the whole pepper tree.

"I didn't mean it, I'm too strong, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it, Xiaobai, Xiaobai, it was Chubby who said hey hey hey and pulled the carrots..."

Liuli tried to explain, worried that the idiots led by Xiaobai would plant her in the vegetable field, and she would grow little liuli next year.

Please give me a monthly ticket, yay yay yay
