Chapter 192 The Old Man is Confused

Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he suddenly saw Zhang Xingwang taking out a cigarette, so he ran over and snatched the half pack of cigarettes in Zhang Xingwang's hand.

He left a sentence "If you can't stay in the city anymore, come back and tell me", and then ran away without looking back.

The old lady looked at the half-pack of cigarettes distressedly, muttering:

"You're still the village chief. You deserved it for stealing goose eggs when you were a kid and being picked up by the goose..."

The old man then said to the old lady:

"Okay, it's just half a pack of cigarettes, let Genwazi take it. He probably won't be willing to smoke it. It will save face for him to attend meetings in the future. Don't embarrass yourself in front of others."

The old lady glared at the old man but did not refute.

Uncle Yougen's action made Zhang Xingwang thoroughly appreciate the living atmosphere in the countryside. No wonder the previous news said that after killing someone, he hid in the village and no one reported it.

I have heard of something even more outrageous. It is said that a few young men hid back in the village after borrowing high-interest loans. The villagers beat the gangsters who came to ask for money half to death. In the end, the gangsters escaped after calling the police with their front teeth bared.

When I beat my uncle-in-law, I had to rely on the fact that I was from my mother's family. Even if my uncle-in-law was no longer liked by the villagers, I would never be able to leave the village.

I used to think that I didn’t have many connections because I had not been in the village for a long time, but I didn’t expect that I would receive such treatment.

After lunch, Zhang Xingwang set off for his aunt's house, but this time he went with the old man and the little girl.

Wang Xiulan originally wanted to go for a walk, but was stopped by the old lady and asked to take some cooking training, saying that the sauerkraut cooked for lunch was a little sour.

Pretending not to notice Wang Xiulan's hopeless look, Zhang Xingwang also felt that his mother's cooking skills had a lot of room for improvement.

It's good to have an old lady to encourage me to make progress. Otherwise, it's not good to leave the old lady alone at home.

Because it snowed yesterday, although not heavily, the road was still a bit slippery, so Zhang Xingwang rode relatively slowly with two other people.

The old man looked at Zhang Xingwang's sack that was bulging again, and his eyes began to dance again. Zhang Xingwang explained that it was something that his previous accomplice delivered in the middle of the night.

The old man, who hadn't slept well that night, didn't even believe the punctuation marks in his grandson's words.

The grandfather, grandson and grandson had a very happy chat along the way. The old man even told the curious Zhang Xingwang the story of Uncle Yougen being chased for two miles by a big goose.

It is said that Uncle Yougen was only six years old at the time, an age that even dogs disliked. He had been planning to steal goose eggs for a long time. He finally found the right opportunity to steal an egg, but was discovered by the goose before he could run away.

The geese in the village are extremely powerful. This one is even a top goose, basically on the same level as Dahuang and Huzi.

When the big goose found out that Uncle Yougen was stealing goose eggs, it immediately spread its wings to stop Uncle Yougen, and then launched a sneak attack on the naked Uncle Yougen.

Uncle Yougen, who originally wanted to fight the big goose alone, was accidentally attacked in the aorta. He felt pain and fear at once and lost the courage to fight the big goose.

He was so scared that he screamed and looked at the big goose flying towards him with its wings spread. Without saying a word, he covered his aorta and turned and ran away.

He had only run a few steps when he fell again. The big goose that was chasing him hit him on the buttocks several times, and then he crawled and rolled and ran two miles in one breath.

When the old man heard the noise and rushed over, Uncle Yougen had almost run out of tears looking at the wound on his aorta.

The old man took a long time to comfort her before she came back to her senses. Then she howled all the way back, and then her father beat her again...

Until the wedding, everyone also popularized the origin of the wound on Uncle Yougen's aorta to the bride. It is said that on the wedding night, the bride laughed so loudly that half of the village could hear it...

After hearing this, Zhang Xingwang could only sigh that Uncle Yougen was born at the wrong time. If he had done this a few decades later,

The unlucky one is the goose. It probably will be greeted by a goose cooked in an iron pot instead of fried bamboo shoots with meat when it returns home.

Because I rode slowly, it was almost five o'clock when I arrived at my aunt's house. I saw that there was already a path cleared from the door to the outside of the yard.

The strange thing is that my sister-in-law is sweeping the snow with a broom, and it seems that she is planning to sweep all the snow in the yard.

Seeing Zhang Xingwang's family coming, he hurried out to greet them. The old man also looked at his little girl. Seeing that her complexion was getting better and better recently, he was very happy.

Just as I was about to go into the house to chat, my uncle-in-law came back with something in his hand, walking as if he didn't recognize anyone.

The young uncle, who had just entered the yard, looked up and saw Zhang Xingwang and the old man coming. He immediately came over to greet the old man, and then listened proudly to the reluctant Zhang Xingwang's respectful greetings to him.

Then, looking at Zhang Xingwang's forced smile, he immediately handed the things in his hand to his aunt, took the broom from her hand, and began to sweep the yard skillfully.

While sweeping, he said in a hoarse voice:

“Dad, Xingwang, you guys go in and chat first. I’ll go in after I finish sweeping. Wife, I’ll give you the snacks I bought. Put them on the plate and give them to the old man to sweeten his mouth.

I have to criticize you for this. You are really something. You can just sweep this little bit of snow when I come back. I swept this path this morning.

You know I feel uncomfortable if I don’t work for a day.”

After hearing this, the old man thought his son-in-law was quite hardworking and praised him, which made Zhang Xingwang roll his eyes.

At this moment, the aunt looked at Zhang Xingwang with both anger and amusement, and secretly winked at him.

It’s obviously the old man here. Don’t let him know what happened in the past. If my uncle-in-law wants to pretend, let him pretend first.

Anyway, we chatted for a long time but my uncle-in-law didn't come in. After a while, my cousin came back from school.

Looking at the smiles on the brother and sister's faces, I feel that the atmosphere in my aunt's house has changed a lot.

Seeing that it was time for dinner, the younger sister-in-law was getting ready to start cooking, and the old man wanted to take the little girl to see his daughter's kitchen.

As a result, when he saw Zhang Xingwang coming to the kitchen with a sack, he immediately made a tactical retreat and retracted his foot that was about to step into the kitchen.

Then he pulled his cousin who was about to come over to chat with Zhang Xingwang aside to ask about his studies, leaving the confused little girl alone.

When Zhang Xingwang went out carrying the flattened sack, the old man sneaked into the kitchen and listened to his little girl chattering about the corn and three pounds of wild boar meat that his nephew brought.

Sometimes I felt that I must have not slept well last night and my eyes were blurry. Sometimes I felt that I must have fallen asleep in a daze yesterday and didn’t notice that my grandson went out to get something.

I didn't even know when I sat down at the dinner table, I was completely confused.

After I realized what was happening, I secretly asked the little girl, and she said in all seriousness that it was my brother who took it out of the sack, and she also emphasized that my brother was so amazing...

Seeing the confident little girl showing a look that said "Grandpa doesn't even know", the old man was sure that it was his own problem.

It turns out that one has to accept his age. It seems that I have become senile and confused, and I sigh while eating.

He said that he was old, and now not only his eyesight was blurry, but he also had trouble sleeping and a bad memory.
