   Chapter 289, learn to keep pace with the times (subscription required!)

   Former town.

  Santana drove through a dirt road, and when he stopped in the courtyard of the small villa, Ai Qing snorted and trotted out of the house.

   That eagerness, I have rarely seen this arrogant woman.

   Looking carefully at Du Shuangling, Ai Qing reached out to touch her daughter's hair, then took her hand and said:

   "Just stay for a few more days when you come back. Mom wants to kill you."

   "Okay." Du Shuanglingmi was blindfolded, enjoying her mother's intimacy.

  Although I miss my daughter very much, this year's Ai Qing is different from last year's Ai Qing, after a moment of greeting with Du Shuangling.

   asked Zhang Xuan hotly, "Are you feeling motion sickness today?"

   Zhang Xuan replied: "It's okay."

  Ai Qing nodded and said, "Go and rest first, Jingling is cooking inside, and dinner will be served later."

   Zhang Xuan was a little surprised: "Sister Jingling is back?"

  Ai Qing said: "The old man is not feeling well, so I came back to have a look. I came back the day before yesterday."

   Hearing that Grandpa was not in good health, Du Shuangling's smile disappeared immediately, and she asked anxiously, "Mom, what's wrong with Grandpa?"

  Ai Qing said: "Stroke, but not too serious, don't worry."

   Hearing that his grandfather who had been pampering him since he was a child had a stroke, even if it was not serious, Du Shuangling's eyes became wet, and he turned around and ran into the house.

   Seeing this, Zhang Xuan also followed. .

  The old town mayor was still red-faced, and he spoke swiftly, looking no different from usual.

   If there is a difference, it is no smoking. People who used to stick to cigarettes are now playing with walnuts.

   "Hello, Grandpa." Zhang Xuan shouted.

"it is good."

   The old town mayor smiled and nodded, beckoning Zhang Xuan to come closer, and after his eyes rolled around for a while, he said with satisfaction, "Yes, yes."

   Hearing that the youngest son-in-law of the Du family had returned, he snorted, and within half an hour, the Du family yard was already crowded with more than 20 people.

   are all nearby neighborhoods, and most of them are close to the Du family.

   When I asked, I came to see the great writers.

   Zhang Xuan was so speechless that it was strange that people called him by name, but he was too embarrassed to hide it.

  In front of everyone, there was an aunt who envied Ai Qing and said, "I heard rumors that your Shuangling junior high school has been with this partner. Her eyes are really sharp, this name!"

After   , the aunt gave a thumbs up.

  Ai Qing glanced at Zhang Xuan, smiled and said nothing. She didn't know what to say. Could it be that "My youngest daughter fell in love with her at the time, and I was particularly opposed to her"? That's not to punch yourself in the face.

   You must know that when Ai Qing went outside before, everyone else said the same thing: This is the director of the health center, the daughter-in-law of Du Kedong, the daughter-in-law of the old town mayor, and the eldest daughter and son-in-law of the family are all big doctors of Xiangya Hospital.

   But now, when Ai Qing walked outside, everyone else would point at her behind her back and say: Look, see, that is the mother-in-law of a great writer, and the youngest daughter is lucky, and Zhang Xuan is in a relationship.

  Ai Qing doesn't know when this tone was changed, but now she is not disgusted at all, and even very proud.

  Now the hospital leaders greet each other like this: "Ai Qing, when will the great writer of your family come back, remember to sign me at that time."

   Every time this time, Ai Qing will have a strange pleasure.

  In the courtyard, Ai Qing looked at Zhang Xuan, who was chatting with the neighbors, and couldn't help saying to Du Shuangling next to him:

   "Hey, Mom is not as good as you, but your vision is better."

   The first time I saw my mother, I felt soft. It was the first time I saw my mother admit "mistake" in so many years.

  Du Shuangling didn't say anything, just lowered his head and pursed his lips and smiled, making tea for the old mayor while laughing.

   Ai Qing glanced at her daughter, then raised her head to observe Zhang Xuan. At a certain moment, she suddenly thought of something.

   asked in a low voice, "Do you remember the private words Mom told you before?"

  Du Shuangling blushed and nodded.

  Ai Qing took a step closer and said in a voice that only two people could hear: "The situation is different now, it's beyond my mother's imagination, you have to learn."

   said, Ai Qing got stuck, tilted his head and thought for a long time before continuing:

   "Keeping pace with the times, yes, that's the word keeping pace with the times. He's a sweetie now, young and energetic. It's important to watch, do you understand what mom means?"

  Du Shuangling couldn't hear these words, she paused and said, "Mom! What are you talking about!"

   Seeing her daughter's shy look, Ai Qing was stunned for a while, then smiled meaningfully, and walked away again.

   After dinner, Du Shuangling found Zhang Xuan: "I just called Yongjian, and I plan to go back to Yangcheng with her when school starts."

   Zhang Xuan was a little stunned, and then he reacted: "Do you want to accompany your grandfather at home?"

"Um."

  Du Shuangling hugged him tightly with her arms outstretched, her head resting on his chest, and said apologetically:

   "Grandpa has been good to me since he was a child. I have kissed him since I was a child, but as I grow up, I spend less and less time with him.

  I found that there was a lot more white hair on his head. This time, I want to stay with him while I have time. "

   Zhang Xuan likes her very much. He values ​​family affection and has a human touch. He also hugs her back: "Okay, it's still half a month away from school, so you can stay with him at home."

   Now is the busy farming season, and everyone is busy.

  During a meal, Du Kedong answered 8 calls.

   Some people want pesticides, some want chemical fertilizers, and more are the phone calls of honeysuckle medicinal materials.

Later, I didn't know what was said on the phone. It seemed that an out-of-town boss came to grab the business. It was okay. There were out-of-towners on my site. Du Kedong was not in the mood to continue eating. He hurriedly drove to Xiaosha River.

  Ai Qing also received a call. The hospital had an operation and asked her to go back to do it by name.

   Zhang Xuan looked at the sky and said goodbye with discernment.

  Ai Qing retained: "You can play for a while, and let your uncle take you back in the evening."

  Send us back at night?

   Zhang Xuan glanced at the half-bowl of rice left by Du Kedong, and thought to himself, let it go, it is not certain whether Uncle Du can come back tonight.

   In his impression, whenever there are foreign households robbing business, it is basically inevitable to do something.

  In these days, as long as the local people are strong enough and there are enough people, most of the foreign households have lost their wives and lost their soldiers.

   Don't look at this future father-in-law who always looks kind to him, but there are quite a few buddies outside, a dozen truckers and dozens of motorcycles are nothing to worry about.

   These are people with families and serious careers, but they are all loyal, and as long as they find something wrong, they just call, put down the bowl, and go to help.

   I remember that there was once an outsider who collected pigs.

  The price was high, and the pigs received several cars, but they couldn't get out of the village.

  Why, either the tire of the pig-carrying car blew out, or the tailpipe was stuffed with rags. Some are even more simply, the engine is gone.

  If you protect it carefully, the car is fine, but you still can't get out of the village road.

  People spend money to call out a few desperate aunties and lie down on the road, what do you think?

  If it is out of line, there are wooden boards buried everywhere on the road, and the wooden boards are full of nails, and the car will not be able to drive 200 meters.
