Chapter 743 Return
The courtyard, which had not been lively for a long time, became lively again today. Everyone gathered together again to bid farewell to Wang Yan and Xu Hongdou.
"Teacher Wang, I toast you a glass. We won't see each other for more than a month. Thinking about that scene, I feel sad." Xie Zhiyao said exaggeratedly and raised the glass with a smile.
Wang Yan clinked glasses with him and drank a cup, saying, "Look at what you said, it seems like something like that, but I am loyal to Hongdou."
Xie Zhiyao smiled and said, "You understand, Teacher Wang. You are almost the spiritual pillar of Yunmiao Village now. The New Year is coming soon, and the things we said before that we would wait until after the New Year have spread in the village, and everyone is worried. It's just that everyone has made money in the past month, and those who work outside have come back to help, and they have tasted the sweetness, but they didn't expect that these good days will be gone in the blink of an eye."
"Then there's no point in looking for me, I don't know so much. The documentary can be so popular, and it is inseparable from your efforts. It's hard work to mobilize the masses and contact the government. Without these, you want to have such a strong influence now. , I don’t know how long it will take to ferment. What are your plans for the next step? "
"We are still studying and discussing it, and it is not very clear yet. But now we have decided to open a food shop during the Chinese New Year, making flower cakes, milk fans, etc., which can not only give tourists experience, but also sell goods. In addition, we are thinking about developing the mountain. After all, it is also part of Cangshan Mountain, and our village’s orchard is also there. Another thing is to expand the village, that is, to expand to the south, occupy the wheat field in front of the homestay you invested in, and think about some new projects. Teacher Wang, what do you think? "
Xu Hongdou also looked at Wang Yan beside her. She knew that Wang Yan invested in the homestay for the wheat field in front of the widened view and the good scenery of the snow line of Cangshan Mountain.
Wang Yan shook his head and smiled, saying, "This is your village's arrangement, what can I think? But I personally think that you have to eat one bite at a time and walk one step at a time. If you take too big a step, you will easily get into trouble. Although you have made a lot of money, you can't afford the cost of developing and expanding the village. If you make a blind loan and something changes in the middle, it will end up being a bad debt, and Yunmiao Village will be ruined, and you guys..." He pointed at Xie Zhiyao, Xie Xiaochun, and Huang Xinxin with chopsticks, "You are the object of hatred of the Yunmiao villagers. Although you won't die to pay for your sins, you can't stay in the village. After all, you know best what kind of people in your village are like, and this will not change even for the whole country. For now, under the existing conditions, it is still the main topic to develop as many profitable projects as possible. As for more plans and longer-term plans, let's see the situation after the new year. It's impossible to get rich overnight." He likes to see the scenery, but he can't delay other people's development, and he can't control them. And to be honest, this is his own fault. If he hadn't helped, Yunmiao Village wouldn't have been so popular now, which made Xie Zhiyao and others think of expanding the village.
Although they still said that they would wait until after the New Year to see the actual situation, they actually had an estimate in their hearts. This didn't need to be estimated by the villagers themselves, but by the people of the Dali government, who used certain professional skills and professional calculation methods to calculate it, and there were experts.
So the reason why Xie Zhiyao was a little arrogant now was that the estimated situation was very good. Even if it was no longer as popular as it is now, it was far better than the previous dilapidation. After all, they still had hundreds of hours of materials in their hands, which could be taken out and stir-fried for nothing, and then aroused the previous enthusiasm.
And now the Dali government has also made efforts to work hard on the tourism experience. Standardizing operations, improving service quality, doing things in a refined and detailed manner, and protecting the rights and interests of tourists have vigorously rectified the chaos, and multiple departments have jointly enforced the law, which is a great success. Taking advantage of this trend, the Dali government is also promoting itself and marketing itself, welcoming more people to Dali.
It's just a pity that the timing is not right, and the Chinese New Year in the middle can easily wear out the enthusiasm. If Yunmiao Village became popular in March, I can't guarantee that it can at least maintain its popularity until October after the hype, and the annual holiday is also in between.
There is no doubt that the current results, although there are some accidents in it, are still achievements, and they are still great. For Xie Zhiyao and others, it is a huge stimulus, and they can't help but feel a little bit floating. After all, they are realizing their dreams. On the road to pursuing their dreams, every step forward is an unparalleled sense of accomplishment, not to mention the current leap-forward exaggeration.
Huang Xinxin nodded: "Yes, that's what we think. But we also need to have long-term planning. Yunmiao Village is still a little small after all. If we want to have great development, we must start construction and expansion."
"Oh, you should also pay attention to the size of your pants according to the size of your butt." Hu Youyu didn't like to talk about these things. After all, it didn't have much to do with him, and he didn't understand it very well. After interrupting, he raised the glass and invited him to drink.
Everyone took a sip together, and he put down the glass and said with some melancholy: "Teacher Wang and Hongdou went back to Shandong Province, and I was left alone. I am lonely and alone."
He has conflicts with his parents because he is not doing music for a good reason, just making a living on his own, so it is hard to say what the future holds. His parents are old-fashioned and traditional, and they do not support him, but he insists on doing it, so their relationship is very strained. Although he has made some progress in short videos and live broadcasts, it is still not good enough. Apart from anything else, he has no place to pay for the five social insurances and one housing fund, so he naturally does not want to go back home to be scolded during the Chinese New Year.
Bai Manjun patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "I am still here. I don't plan to go back for the New Year. There is no place to go back. It's meaningless. Let's spend the New Year together."
Xie Xiaochun waved his hands repeatedly: "Don't talk so sadly. How can you really eat cold rice during the New Year? Come to my house at that time, it will be lively. You know our family. One of us has not grown up, one is worrying, and my mother is always disobedient. There is no meaning during the New Year. It's just right for you two to go. There will be an atmosphere during the New Year."
Hu Youyu smiled and said: "That's great. Eat and drink well every day, and it's lively. Right, sister."
Bai Manjun smiled and nodded, looking at Hu Youyu's eyes flashing with enthusiasm.
Hu Youyu didn't dare to look at him, and quickly turned his head and coughed, pretending to be nothing, and raised his glass to invite him to drink.
Of course, the other people at the table were not fools. There was always some strange smell floating in the air, but no one said anything, just picked up the wine glass and drank with him.
Although we don't get together often recently, there's not much to talk about, especially since there's a new couple who can't fit in. But if one person is embarrassed, it's the others who are embarrassed. These two people are sitting there sweetly, looking at the celebrities on the Internet, and whispering happily. Although they are happy, they can't fit in, which still affects the overall dining atmosphere. There is a gap, they are not family, and they have to be careful when talking, which is very tiring.
That's why Wang Yanhongdou didn't drink a lot at the farewell banquet, and it didn't last long. They started eating at around nine o'clock and ended at around eleven o'clock. Everyone was busy cleaning up the kitchen utensils, and then they dispersed and went to bed.
Only Wang Yan and Xu Hongdou were still awake, packing things in Xu Hongdou's room. This time, the time back was not short, and Xu Hongdou had a lot of things, so she also took the opportunity to clean up her room, so she was not in a hurry to clean up all day, and it's not finished yet. Wang Yan had to help, otherwise it would be over.
"Teacher Wang."
"Hmm?"
Xu Hongdou smiled and said, "You said Teacher Hu and Bai Manjun..."
"Why are you gossiping?" Wang Yan also smiled and said, "Then what do you think?"
"I think it's bad. Bai Manjun is over 40, and her daughter is in college. Teacher Hu is one year older than me, 33. If they were both 10 years younger, it would be fine, but now the gap is too big, and there is no result."
"Do you know if Bai Manjun wants to eat young cattle, do you know if Teacher Hu wants to pull a big cart with a small horse?"
Although talking about people behind their backs is not good, But behind closed doors, the two of them were still dating, and messy communication was inevitable. Wang Yan continued, "Teacher Hu is a singer, he is handsome, and he works in a bar. Even if he is a clean man, there should be one, two or three. Bai Manjun is divorced, her children are grown up, she has no serious things to do, lonely and empty, and at this age, after experiencing all these things, she has an attitude of playing with life.
Xu Hongdou rolled her eyes and said, "So according to you, when we first met, we went out to travel together with some thoughts?"
"Of course, you don't know whether you know it or not, but I did. Don't you know how beautiful you are? I was tempted by your beauty, and gradually sank and lost in your beauty." Wang Yan said whatever he wanted in the spirit of being shameless.
"You mean, if my beauty is gone, you won't sink or lose yourself?" Xu Hongdou's eyes were a little dangerous.
"Of course not, at the beginning it was attraction, and then it was companionship. After all, who can stay young forever? It's like you said I'm strong, but sooner or later I'll be weak. "
"Go to hell, you always talk nonsense. Hurry up and work, and rest early."
...
The next day, Wang Yan didn't affect his work and rest because he had to hurry. He still got up early to exercise and bought breakfast to eat. But it's worth mentioning that it seems that many people know the news that he is leaving. Many people who get up early greeted him along the way and wished him a safe journey.
Because he was leaving, Hu Youyu got up early and ate breakfast with him. After washing up, he helped Wang Yan and Hongdou with Xie Zhiyao and Huang Xinxin to carry their luggage. They went against the crowds of tourists to the parking lot at the entrance of the village and sent them to the car before leaving.
Wang Yan and Hongdou drove back, passing Yunnan, Sichuan, Shaanxi and Henan. Five provinces in Shandong, a total of 2,600 kilometers. Anyway, there is nothing serious to do, and there is still a lot of time before the Chinese New Year, so just stroll back leisurely, the trip is expected to take half a month, passing many scenic spots. Although it is winter, and it is going north, it will affect the scenery to some extent. But Xu Hongdou has not been to too many places in her life. For her, everything is new. Occasionally, she also sets up a tent and camps in the wild, which has different novel experiences.
So Xu Hongdou was very happy along the way. But there are also disadvantages, because the two of them still sleep in separate rooms in the courtyard, and now they are together every day and have nowhere to run, and there is always some pain and joy fatigue to endure.
Xu Hongdou's hometown is in the county seat of Zizhou, Shandong Province, while Chen Nanxing's home is in the city. They later bought a house in the city and moved there. Otherwise, they would not have had the opportunity to play together since childhood. Chen Nanxing's illness didn't cost much this time, so her parents' house was kept as a place to stay.
There is no separation of people and cars in this community. We drove all the way to the downstairs of the community and parked in the designated parking space on the ground. Chen Nanxing's parents had already been waiting downstairs and enthusiastically greeted the two people who got off the car.
"Hongdou, we miss you so much. Come on, let Auntie take a look. This is Wang Yan, right? The young man looks good and tall. Just look at him."
Mother Chen greeted them warmly, and Father Chen greeted them with a smile on his face.
Wang Yan followed Xu Hongdou and called people, and took Xu Hongdou's suitcase and the gifts from the car.
Father Chen was helping on the side and said politely: "Tell me, you two, come as soon as you come. It's like your own home. What else do you need to bring?"
"Yes, Hongdou, Wang Yan, you are too uninformed." Mother Chen was a little unhappy, really unhappy, "We will be happy if you can come. We won't need the things. Don't take them anymore. Wait. We still have to pretend for you when you leave."
It would be fine if we brought back some specialties for them to try, but now it's not just specialties, but also a bunch of other things. Xu Hongdou was Chen Nanxing's friend since childhood. After Chen Nanxing's death, Xu Hongdou cared a lot about the old couple. The old couple had placed Chen Nanxing's spirit on Xu Hongdou. They treated Xu Hongdou like a daughter and took so much. Of course things are unhappy.
Without waiting for Xu Hongdou to explain, Wang Yan took the initiative to answer: "Auntie, Hongdou treats you and Uncle Chen as close as parents. As Hongdou's boyfriend, how could I come to your home without bringing anything? Don't worry, I'll bring it to you. The things I gave to Hongdou are the same as those given to Hongdou’s parents, but give me two extra points to tell Hongdou and let her cherish me. "
Chen's mother laughed after hearing this: "You kid is so nice to talk to. Her dad, what are you doing in a daze? He picked up his things and hurried into the house. It's very cold outside."
Father Chen nodded with a smile. He wanted to help carry the suitcase, but it was too heavy. Wang Yan refused and gave him a lot of things. The group went upstairs and entered the house while laughing and joking.
As soon as they entered the house, they first looked at the various things Wang Yan had brought. Finally, he put an jade bracelet on Chen's mother and a watch on Chen's father. The two of them were so happy that they couldn't smile from ear to ear, and then they started to do it. Started eating. Wang Yan had nothing to do, so he went in to help cook, leaving Xu Hongdou talking to Chen's mother.
The old couple lost their daughter. In fact, it was a sad time. They were even more sad when they saw the lively Xu Hongdou. They missed each other. It's just that he didn't show it, he looked like he was laughing and having a hard time.
From the meeting to the meal, they kept talking about Xu Hongdou and Wang Yan's stay in Dali. The old couple also watched the short video and knew how good Wang Yan was, so they praised him fiercely. But I just don’t mention Chen Nanxing, because I can’t stand it when I mention it.
But fortunately, enough things happened to them in Dali that I really couldn't finish them in a short while. Wang Yan drank a glass of white wine and two bottles of beer with Chen's father. After dinner, it was already dark.
After making tea and chatting for a long time, Wang Yan said, "Hongdou, aunt, uncle, it's getting late, so I'll leave first."
Father Chen drank too much and talked too much. He looked like a man from Shandong province: "Why are you leaving? You and Hongdou can just live at home. It's not like we don't have room."
"Yes, let's stay here. Why bother bothering us so late?" Mother Chen also advised her.
Only Hongdou remained silent. This was all discussed before. She would sleep here while Wang Yan went to find the hotel. There was always something they had to say.
Wang Yan smiled and said: "Don't bother, there is a hotel not far from our home, and I have already booked a room there. Let Hongdou accompany you and have a good talk. Don't worry, I won't drive. I will just take a taxi when I go out. It’s very convenient. I’ll come back tomorrow morning, same thing.”
Hongdou nodded in agreement: "Yes, uncle and aunt, just let her go, I'll be here with you."
Having said that, of course Chen's father and Chen's mother no longer wanted to stay. Wang Yan didn't need anyone to see him off, so he took the elevator down after leaving the door.
After leaving the unit, Wang Yan ordered a flower. He didn't need to listen to know that Xu Hongdou and Chen's father and Chen's mother were talking about him. The old couple was keeping Xu Hongdou in check and expressed their feelings. We need to talk about his life experience and other things, and talk about small things together. After that, I cried without even thinking about it, because it was impossible not to talk about Chen Nanxing all the time, just like in the original drama.
Wang Yan's departure is to give them space to talk about these things. After all, he is an outsider after all...
They stayed with Chen Nanxing's parents for a total of five days. Wang Yan and Xu Hongdou accompanied Chen's parents and Chen's mother to go shopping to buy new clothes, go to restaurants to eat together, and take a walk outside. Persuasion is the most useless thing. After all, everyone understands the truth. Only the person involved knows how painful it is. The main thing is to provide some companionship and some spiritual comfort.
However, Father Chen and Mother Chen were very generous, and of course the gifts from Wang Yan were not cheap. Mother Chen had to drag Xu Hongdou to buy gold jewelry, but Xu Hongdou refused, so she gave up.
In this way, with Chen's father and Chen's mother watching reluctantly, Wang Yan and Xu Hongdou left here and returned to Xu Hongdou's real home to meet her real parents...
