Chapter 1775: Nanke 1 Dream

The man was very old, according to the data, he was almost ninety years old.

He was said to be very reticent in the nursing home and disliked group activities.

In addition to eating, sleeping and looking at the scenery every day, I just read books.

His children are too old to visit him often, and even less so are his grandchildren.

Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng walked over with the volunteer group.

Both of them were new here, and they both watched what others did and followed suit.

Gu Nianzhi observed for a while, and found that there seemed to be no definite rules.

The volunteers talked to the elderly in the nursing home in twos and threes, played games, played cards, played mahjong, sang, played opera, played the erhu, and played the pipa.

Gu Nianzhi was amazed.

She whispered to Huo Shaoheng: "The people who came to see these old people are all middle-aged and old people..."

Young people don't come to nursing homes to volunteer.

Huo Shaoheng said calmly: "People are sympathetic, especially when they are about to enter old age."

Gu Nianzhi nodded and followed him slowly on the lawn in front of the nursing home building.

The lawn was verdant and verdant, walking all the way, the morning dew wetted her and her trousers.

Coming under the tree where the man was staying, Gu Nianzhi smiled and handed over a book they had prepared, and said, "Hello, we are a volunteer group, you are in a good mood today."

Gu Nianzhi was very familiar with the conversation, and regardless of whether the person responded or not, she almost forcibly placed the book on the person's lap, and continued: "This book is very interesting, it is a novel, written by It happened decades ago, I wonder if you are interested in it?"

After hearing this, the man indifferently pushed her book to the ground and said bluntly: "Not interested, I never read novels."

Gu Nianzhi could hardly control her expression, "You never read novels?! Then what do you do in your spare time?"

The man frowned, "What does it matter to you what I do in my spare time?"

I really can't talk today...

Gu Nianzhi blinked, quickly changed the subject, and said, "It's not my business, I'm just curious. Sir, what were you watching just now?"

The man's face paled, he lowered his head and said, "The ants are moving, what can you see under the tree? Of course, only the ants are moving."

Gu Nianzhi walked over, bent down, and followed the ants under the big tree to move.

I saw ants busy moving things into a pile of loose soil under the big tree.

Gu Nianzhi smiled and said: "...Is this going to be moved to Dahuai'an Country?"

The man raised his head and looked at Gu Nianzhi in surprise, his voice softened a lot, and he asked, "Do you know Dahuai Anguo?"

"I know." Gu Nianzhi straightened up, stood still under the tree, and said with his hands behind his back: "It's in Nanke Yimeng, Chunyufen strayed into the 'Dahuai'an Kingdom' in a dream, married the princess as his son-in-law, gave birth to five sons and two daughters, and had a prominent official position. , only to wake up and find that he was just dreaming, and the so-called 'Dahuai Anguo' was just an ant hole under the big locust tree in front of his house."

"Yes, life is just a dream, nothing more than joy." The man let out a long sigh, and his mood became even more depressed.

Gu Nianzhi saw that he seemed to be very touched, and immediately took the opportunity to ask: "Why do you say that? I don't think life is a dream. Although everyone will return to ashes and ashes in the end, the meaning of life is inherently It's not about the result, it's about the experience."

The man raised his head, looked at Gu Nianzhi with a smile, and said kindly: "It's really interesting to talk to young people, they are really full of vitality, newborn calves are not afraid of tigers..."

Gu Nianzhi: "..."

She really wants to take a look at herself in the mirror, is there something wrong with the modification on her face?

Huo Shaoheng said calmly beside him: "We are also quite old. Although we are younger than you, we are still far away from the word 'young people'."

"Ha ha,

Yeah? "The man's eyes were a little cloudy, but he couldn't see Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng clearly.

But just because he couldn't see their appearance clearly, he was not confused by their disguise.

Just listening to Gu Nianzhi's voice, the speed and tone of her speech, and the natural vigor in her words, the man concluded that the woman in front of him was only in her early twenties.

But since Huo Shaoheng said they were quite old, this person didn't expose him.

He just looked at Gu Nianzhi and said to her, "Can you please push me back? I'll invite you to drink tea."

Gu Nianzhi nodded quickly, "That's enough to bother you. We came here with the volunteer group today, and it's the first time we've come here. What do you usually do with the volunteers? Do you want to play cards?"

She pushed the man's wheelchair and walked towards the building of the nursing home.

This nursing home is still a very high-end nursing home in C City.

There are elevators in the building, and there are several professional nurses stationed on each floor, and doctors come to check the health of these elderly people regularly.

Every elderly person has his own small suite, less than 30 square meters, but it has a bedroom, living room and bathroom, but no kitchen.

Everyday meals are delivered on time.

Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng pushed the old man up to the floor where he lived, all the way to his small suite.

The old man stood up from the wheelchair, leaning on crutches, and asked tremblingly, "What kind of tea do you like to drink? I have green tea, black tea, coffee and fruit juice here."

Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng actually didn't know how to eat and drink here, but they still said politely: "Come on, what tea do you want?"

The old man nodded and smiled, "Thank you then, I want black tea."

Gu Nianzhi saw a row of cabinets facing the wall in the corner of the living room, and a coffee machine and a water heater were placed on the counter below.

Gu Nianzhi boiled water, made tea, and put it in front of the old man. He also found a bag of muffins from the cupboard, opened it, put it on a plate, and brought it over.

The old man was very happy and said: "Drinking black tea with muffins is also very good. In the early years, we all ate butter cream, spread it on bread, and Colombian black coffee."

City C has always been the earliest internationalized city in the Chinese Empire, and it was once the largest city.

The people here are well-informed, especially the older generation. Many of them have the experience of studying abroad in their early years.

The old man in front of him had such an experience.

Gu Nianzhi sat across from him with a smile, holding a cup of green tea and turning it in his hand, without drinking it, he asked, "What did you do before? You must have been abroad, right?"

"I came back from studying abroad." The old man opened his mouth, and gradually began to chat with Gu Nianzhi, "At that time, there were many people who went abroad, and many people came back. We didn't want to stay abroad."

"Yeah, it's better to be at home." Gu Nianzhi nodded again and again, "What major did you study? Will you work here after you come back?"

"I majored in mechanical manufacturing. After I came back, I taught at the university here until I retired." The old man recalled the past, with a smile on his face, "Are you young people also interested in things so long ago? "

"Of course I'm interested!" Gu Nianzhi's eyes seemed to be bright, and his expression was very contagious, "I'm really interested in that era! A few decades ago, the policy changed a lot, everything was different, reform, opening up, It's really stormy!"

"...Oh, reform and opening up..." The old man snorted, obviously not so enthusiastic.

Gu Nianzhi noticed the change in this person's mood, and said, "That's right, the reform and opening up is a huge opportunity. Do you think how many rich people have been created? From the beginning of ten thousand households, to now there are less than one million. Counting riches, the situation of starting with tens of millions is really a vicissitudes of life..."

"The vicissitudes of life...? Ha ha..." The old man laughed again, "It is not a good thing to expand people's yearning for wealth infinitely."

"This is inevitable." Gu Nianzhi said perfunctorily, thinking about how to naturally lead the topic to Qin Huichang's family affairs.

Huo Shaoheng took a puff of coffee from the side, and said calmly: "Yes, too much emphasis on the pursuit of wealth is really not conducive to social stability. Especially early people often have the opportunity to get rich. It's very difficult now .”

"Get rich..." The old man didn't know what he thought of, and repeated in a murmur, regretting: "Yes, get rich... But some people just don't have this life!"

Gu Nianzhi listened to the spirit, and hurriedly said: "If he doesn't have this fate, it means that he has no chance to get rich. What is there to regret?"

"You can't say that." The old man broke away from his chattering posture and confided in Gu Nianzhi, "I used to have a colleague whose family had a piece of land in Z City in the south. You know, back then, Z City was just a small town. A fishing village, where a piece of land is nothing."

"But he suddenly sold that piece of land. After less than half a year of selling, that piece of land was actually enclosed in the special economic zone of City Z. It was worth a hundred times immediately!"

Gu Nianzhi became excited, tried his best to suppress his emotions, and asked cautiously: "Your colleague owns land in Z City? Why did you suddenly sell it? Then, is he so regretful now that his stomach is green?"

The old man showed an even more regretful expression, shook his head, and said, "He has no chance to regret it. Not long after returning from Z City, the three of them were involved in a car accident, and the family was destroyed."

"They didn't even see the day when the land took off."
