Chapter 610 Landed in the City
After four days of slow travel, Sun Shan and his party finally arrived in Guangfu and got off at the gate of the outer city.
Normally, it would take two days and two nights for the escort and the goods to arrive. However, in order to take care of Huang, Sun Shan walked very slowly and even rested for a day before continuing his journey.
Sun Shan helped Huang down and asked with concern, "Grandma, are you feeling well? This is the outer city. After entering the city gate, we will reach the inner city and Hejia Village."
Huang was like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden, looking at the majestic towering city wall and saying in amazement: "Shanzi, this city wall is too tall, Huangyang County can't compare to it."
Gui Ge'er supported Huang on the other side and said cheerfully, "Grandma, this is how it is in big cities. The walls of Jinling are also very high and big. Haha, grandma, when there is a chance, ask Shan Ge to take you to Jinling."
When Huang heard about going to Jinling, she knew that she would never be able to go there in her lifetime, but that did not stop her from dreaming about it.
Gao Xing shook his head and said, "No, no, Jinling is too far away, you guys can go there."
Sun Shan asked the Guangzhou office of Zengjia Escort Agency in Huangyang County to arrange a vehicle, as they needed to continue taking the vehicle into the inner city.
When they arrived at the Hejiacun Memorial Archway, a typical memorial archway in the urban villages of Guangzhou, Sun Shan asked the driver to stop on one side, and Gui Ge'er hurried to the dessert shop to look for He Shuyu or Aunt Sun.
Huang looked at the village archway of Hejia Village, the village road of Hejia Village, and the houses on both sides of Hejia Village, especially the two-story and three-story houses.
He asked in surprise: "Shanzi, is this Hejia Village? Your aunt lives there?"
Meizhu had been to Hejia Village and still had an impression of it. She said crisply, "Grandma, this is Hejia Village. My aunt lives there. But my father and mother don't work here."
Huang's eyes were a little moist and red. She held Sun Shan's hand and said happily, "It's great that your aunt can marry here. Hejia Village is really rich. Compared with it, our Sunjia Village is far behind."
Huang has never set foot in Hejia Village.
Even if she wanted to discuss marriage, she had never considered the family traditions, as she was afraid that her status as a widow would bring bad luck to her daughter.
Today I came to Hejia Village and was very pleased to see that the houses here are all made of blue bricks and the roads are slabs of stone.
Sun Shan smiled and said, "Grandma, Hejia Village is in the capital, so it is naturally richer than our Sunjia Village. But our Sunjia Village is also good, with beautiful scenery. It's very pretty."
Huang looked at Sunshan with joy. There were mountains everywhere, and it was filled with poverty. She was glad that her children and grandchildren could leave the mountains.
After waiting for a while, He Shuyu hurried over. When he saw his grandmother, he asked in surprise, "Grandma, why are you here? Was it hard on the way?"
He glanced at Sun Shan, wondering why Huang came to the city and was afraid that something bad might happen.
This feeling is like when people reach middle age, they are most afraid of receiving calls from their parents at home, and always feel that their parents only call because they have something to ask.
He Shuyu was also afraid that something had happened to Huang, otherwise how could she fall into the city without any warning and for no reason?
Sun Shan quickly explained: "Second cousin, we are here to see the new house. Grandma has not seen the house she bought in the city yet."
He Shuyu breathed a sigh of relief instantly. Although this reason was a bit far-fetched, it was still a reason.
She smiled and said, "Grandma, you're here at the right time. Shanzi's house is so beautiful, even more beautiful than mine."
Huang was delighted when she heard this. She smiled and said, "Brother Yu, where is your mother?"
He Shuyu smiled and said, "My father and mother are in the shop in Dongcheng, not in Hejia Village. I have arranged for someone to call them back."
Huang quickly stopped him and said, "Don't shout. Work is more important. The shop can't be without people. You can talk about it after you finish your work."
Old people are most afraid of delaying their children's work, and Huang doesn't want to delay Aunt Sun and Uncle He's work.
He Shuyu agreed verbally, but secretly she would definitely call Aunt Sun and Uncle He.
He Shuyu continued, "Grandma, let's go home quickly. You must be tired and need a good rest."
Sun Shan shook his head and said, "Second cousin, where is my house? Let's go directly to the new house. By the way, do you have the key?"
The Sun family's house was found by Aunt Sun, Uncle He, and Sun Boming together.
When Sun Bomin and Su returned home, the new door of the new house had not been completed yet, so the couple did not have the key.
Instead of living in the He family, it is better to live directly in the Sun family. I am too lazy to move around.
Of course the He family had the key, and the task of cleaning and taking care of the Sun family's house was given to the mother of the young man.
There was no other way. My eldest cousin He Shujin's family was in the capital, so naturally it was He Shuyu's wife who would manage He Erlang's household affairs.
Aunt Sun is an open-minded person and doesn't like to take care of these trivial matters. She handed over the kitchen affairs to her second daughter-in-law early in the morning.
He Shuyu thought about it and felt that Sun Shan’s suggestion was not bad. Now that he had a house in the capital, it would be more convenient to live there.
He smiled and said, "Yes, your second cousin's wife has the key. We can go directly to the new house. When my uncle returned, he had already bought furniture, so we can just move in directly."
Sun Shan was very happy to hear that he could move in with just his luggage.
Huang said anxiously, "Brother Yu, let's go to the new house."
Gui Ge'er also wanted to see the new house, so he urged, "Cousin Yu, go to the new house quickly. I haven't even seen it."
Piglet and Cowboy clapped their hands and shouted, "Uncle, we want to live in a new house."
What could He Shuyu say? He had to rush back to the He family to find his wife and asked her to bring the key to open the door.
The Sun family’s mansion in the city was just as Sun Boming and Su had said, not far away from Hejia Village.
A wide road divides an area into two sides.
On one side is Hejia Village and on the other side is Beizhi Street.
From Hejia Village to Sunjiayuan, cross the road and walk a few steps inside.
When everyone arrived at the gate and saw the words "Sun's House" above, they all seemed a little excited.
Although the cowboy was not good at reading, he had read books at least. He pointed to the door plaque and said, "Grandma, it says Sun's House. There's the word Sun in my name."
This made everyone laugh.
Yu Ge'er rubbed Cowboy's big head and said with a smile: "Cowboy, do you miss your parents? You can see them tonight."
Of course he wanted to, but Cowboy was not good at studying, and was scolded not only by his grandparents, but also by his parents. He was afraid that he would be scolded again when he saw his parents later.
So he said nothing and buried his head in Huang's arms.
The cowboy thought that it would be impossible to say that he didn't care about it. If he said that he cared about it, his parents would come looking for him, and he didn't want that.
The mother of the young boy opened the door and everyone walked in.
The driver helped unload the goods and secretly glanced at Mr. Sun's house, and couldn't help feeling envious.
As expected of the first juren in Huangyang County, he could even afford a house in the provincial capital.
I heard that Mr. Sun was just a farmer's son, but since he passed the imperial examination, he has been on the road to becoming rich.
The driver was an employee of Zeng's Escort Agency and knew Sun Shan's background very well.
At this moment, I really want to drive home and use a whip to force my children to study hard and learn from Mr. Sun.
