Exciting 1979!

Chapter 142: People are better than others (guaranteed 2 more chapters)
When the mother of the blind date man saw Wei Ming's family, her eyes lit up as she could not find a single patch on their clothes and the two men were even wearing leather shoes.

But it’s true, he came here in a jeep, so he’s definitely not an ordinary person!
I never thought that the extremely poor Xu family actually has such a wealthy relative!
She greeted Xu Cunmao with a smile, called him relative, and asked him to introduce Xu Shufen to her.

Just as Xu Cunmao was about to speak, Xu Shufen had already run to the old lady of the Xu family, knelt down and hugged her legs.

A cry of "Mom!" was followed by sobbing.

This scene made Wei Ming's eyes moist. In this life, his mother finally got to see her mother.

Although this trip costs several hundred dollars, isn’t that the point of making money?

If only he could let his father see his father again... Wei Ming clenched his fists, feeling that by living his life again, in addition to realizing his own personal ambitions, he could also make sure that his relatives lived their lives without regrets. This was an effective rebirth.

Then my grandmother, mother and aunt started chatting animatedly. They had a lot to say but didn't know where to start.

Xu Shufen wiped her tears and decided to introduce herself.

Then, Wei Jiefang, Wei Ming and Wei Hong also met with several elders, including their aunt who was working silently.

As for the blind date guy, grandma doesn't bother to pay attention to them because she holds a grudge.

Fortunately, I had learned Sichuan and Chongqing dialects from my mother before, so the three people with the surname Wei could barely communicate normally with my grandmother and others. However, Lao Wei's ability to show off was weakened due to language problems.

Grandma almost looked up at Wei Ming. She said in amazement, "What did you eat to grow so tall?"

Wei Ming grinned, revealing his white teeth: "Grandma, I'm 183."

In order to give his grandmother an intuitive feeling of his height, Wei Ming took two steps back and stood next to the blind date man.

The contrast between less than 1.6 meters and 1.83 meters is tragic, a difference of a whole head. In addition, Wei Ming's clothes are decent, his figure is tall and his temperament is elegant, which makes the blind date guy look like a child, and a sneaky little kid at that.

Xu Yunyun originally thought that the blind date guy was pretty good. Although he was shorter than her, he looked good and had a sweet mouth. Now he promised to be good to her for the rest of her life, which made Yunyun, who was in love for the first time, feel that he was very sincere.

However, when I saw him standing with his cousin Ming at this time, I felt that he was still so far away from the standard of excellence.

The blind date guy felt even more uncomfortable standing next to Wei Ming. There was no one as tall as him in their area. The most important thing was that his clothes were too uncomfortable. He had taken out his best clothes for today's meeting, but next to Wei Ming he felt like a beggar.

He really wanted to avoid Wei Ming, but Wei Ming followed him wherever he went. Long Xiaoyang laughed at this and said, "Cousin, are you doing this on purpose?"

Wei Ming: Was my expression so obvious?

This boy is not a bad boy. If his mother had died earlier, Wei Ming might have turned a blind eye to him for the sake of his three unborn nephews and nieces. However, a mama's boy will never get past his mother, so Wei Ming has no choice but to take action. After all, it concerns a girl's lifelong happiness. This is a great merit.

The blind date guy, who originally wanted to stay here for a meal, quickly pulled her mother closer to Xu Shufen and wanted to say a few words to her.

"Mom, let's go."

"Why are you leaving? Your future wife's family has relatives coming. Could you be a little more considerate and help with some work?" Although she didn't say a few words just now, she saw that Xu Shufen's man had a pen in his pocket and was wearing leather shoes. He was obviously a state official!
And that little girl, the thing hanging around her neck looks like a camera!

If I could marry an uncle like this, maybe my son would be able to eat commercial grain!

Wei Jiefang smoked a cigarette and looked up at the sky: Alas, people in the world have too many misunderstandings about me!
The blind date guy didn't care about me anymore and wanted to leave. Xu Cunmao also spoke up at this time and asked everyone to disperse, as he didn't have that much rice prepared.

He also confronted the blind date man's mother and said, "I'm sorry, we have more important things to do at home today. Let's talk about marriage another day. You guys go back first."

"Oh, it's so touching to see a family reunion. I thought I could help by staying."

"No need, go back first." Xu Cunmao was firm in his attitude. It would be so awkward to have outsiders at home at this time.

The secretary and his wife left. Before leaving, Wei Ming asked Long Xiaoyang to go to the brigade headquarters and call Brother Lao Wan over for dinner.

Seeing that Xu Cunmao said this and that his son had already run away, the other party had no choice but to take his people away.

The matchmaker, however, saw that Wei Ming was reluctant to leave, and approached Wei Jiefang and asked, "Does your son want to marry a local woman? I know all the pretty girls in the surrounding area!"

Old Wei smiled calmly and said, "Don't worry about it, elder sister. My son has even dated foreign girls. He can decide his own marriage. We as parents will not interfere."

The matchmaker is full of questions?
What kind of thing is this? He even dated foreign women. Is your son's thing made of gold or silver?

Finally, the matchmaker just shook her sleeves and left. She had been busy for a long time but didn’t get any candy. What bad luck!
Long Xiaoyang followed Wangcai and his wife to the brigade headquarters. Along the way, he kept asking them, "Did my second aunt and her husband really come here by car? Is my second uncle a high-ranking official?"

Wangcai: "He's from the north. He should be from Yanjing. It's probably true. He might be the second generation."

As expected of the branch secretary, Wangcai, although his name is a bit crude, is still knowledgeable. He has seen young second and third generation people coming here to look for pandas before, but their temperament and conversation are not as good as Wei Ming's.

Caifeng sighed, "I also fled the famine back then. How come Shufen is so lucky?"

Wangcai sneered: "Why don't you look in the mirror? Do you look like Shufen?"

Caifeng retorted: "I wasn't bad when I was young, but I was tired of following you. I feel bad just thinking about giving birth to five children for you. Five!" "It's because you always want it, otherwise how could there be five!"

"Hey, pull up your pants and talk tough!"

Aunt Caifeng is the kind of woman who would really say "I'm from Shudao Mountain". Seeing that the two were about to fight, Long Xiaoyang was afraid that he would get covered in blood.

After a few quick steps, Long Xiaoyang arrived at the brigade headquarters and finally saw the legendary jeep. It was said that it would only take two or three hours to drive this thing to Chengdu!

"You must be Brother Lao Wan, right? My cousin asked me to invite you to dinner at his home," he knocked on the car window and said after seeing Lao Wan, "My brother is Wei Ming."

Lao Wan smiled and said that he had found it.

He was still a little worried about this public car, but when he saw Secretary Wangcai coming back, he asked him to help look after the car.

The other party said: "Don't worry, leader, we will definitely not let anyone get close to us!"

At the same time, Lao Wan pulled out two bags and a bucket from the car and asked Long Xiaoyang to carry them together.

"This is?"

Lao Wan: "A bag of rice, a bag of noodles, and a barrel of oil."

Not knowing how long his family would stay here, Wei Ming was worried that his grandmother's family wouldn't be able to cope with the food rations for so many people, so he bought these things when he was in Chengdu.

Long Xiaoyang calculated the prices of these things, and his body was suddenly filled with strength.

On the way, he couldn't help but ask, "Brother Lao Wan, what does my second uncle do?"

Lao Wan: "Your second uncle? Oh, Uncle Wei. He is a farmer."

While Long Xiaoyang was asking around, Xu Shufen also learned from her elder sister what happened to Long Xiaoyang.

It turned out that my eldest sister’s first husband did not survive those years, and Long Xiaoyang was born to her and her second husband. He was the only child in their family.

Xu Shufen hugged her sobbing elder sister tightly, because she remembered that her elder sister was already pregnant when they fled famine 20 years ago.

She didn't know whether the baby was not kept after birth or never came into this world. She didn't dare to ask. That must be the most unforgettable scar of her eldest sister. How could she bear to reveal it?

Then they talked about their younger sister. One month after Xu Shufen went missing, when they came to the mountain city to beg, they were chased by a group of local beggars. After they ran away in panic, their younger sister was never found again. They waited in the mountain city for a long time but couldn't find her.

Talking about this incident, her mother and elder brother shed tears and whispered in frustration, saying that she was only ten years old at that time, how could she live alone?

Because my aunt was so young, even my grandmother and uncle always held out hope of seeing Xu Shufen again, but they had almost given up on their little daughter. Even if she survived, she probably wouldn't remember her home or her family.

Wei Ming said: "Mom, there seems to be some clues about my aunt in those readers' letters."

"Oh, yes!" Xu Shufen took out a pile of letters from her bag, all of which were clues provided by enthusiastic readers.

Basically, they say that a woman from Sichuan or Chongqing came to their local area in a certain year and described her age and appearance.

Some of them sounded quite relevant, but the locations were all over the place, and it would not be possible to visit them all in a short period of time.

Eldest sister Xu Shuxiang looked at the letters curiously, not knowing what these so-called "letters from readers" were.

Transportation and communication are not well developed nowadays, so it is very difficult to find my aunt. These alternative options can only allow us to visit one place at most this time.

Wei Ming pulled out a letter and said, "This letter from Yuxi, Yunnan, is more in line with my aunt's situation. I thought I might as well go over and take a look myself."

I won’t bring my parents and Xiaohong this time. I will let them reunite at grandma’s house and enjoy family happiness.

At this time, the uncle said: "You haven't seen your aunt, what if you can't confirm it? Well, I'll go with you!"

Over the years, Xu Cunmao had several opportunities to go to Chengdu and Shancheng. Each time, he would stay there for a few days to inquire about the news of his two sisters. If he could not find them back, it would become a lifelong worry for him.

At this time, Brother Lao Wan and Long Xiaoyang also came back. Seeing the grain and oil, Xu Cunmao felt embarrassed, but at the same time, he felt relieved that he finally didn't have to borrow money and grain.

When he heard that his cousin and uncle were going to Yunnan to look for someone, Long Xiaoyang showed some enthusiasm.

"Brother, you must take me with you. I also want to go out and see the world!"

On the way he had already found out that the truly capable brother in his second aunt's family was this brother, his biological brother!
