Chapter 55 Uncle's House

During dinner, Long Jianhua said he wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to visit his uncle's place.

Grandma's eyes turned red, "Go and have a look. She hasn't come back for five years. When she writes, she says she's busy and everything is fine, and she doesn't know what's going on."

Uncle Long Haojun is a college graduate of Kyoto Iron and Steel College. After graduation, he was assigned to a military-industrial enterprise in Shanjin Province, where he got married and had a daughter. His eldest daughter Long Yuehua was born in 1964 and his younger daughter Long Yuehe was born in 1968. Before 1971, he had to bring his whole family back every year; but since 1971, he has not been home for five years.

It is inconvenient to come from their home. It takes four days to take a long-distance bus from the factory to the train station and then to Kyoto, and then take a train from Kyoto.

Long Haojun is also a person who talks very little. If the two brothers sit together, they can sit for a long time without saying a word. However, Long Haojun is a little more impatient and speaks very straightforwardly.

In his previous life, after graduating from University, Long Jianhua took advantage of the opportunity to visit him on a business trip, and found that as a veteran college student, he was still an ordinary engineer and had not even been awarded a senior engineer.

Although he has a deep theoretical level and good practical ability, he has him every R&D project because of his personality, but he is only a team member and has a low ranking, so he has a worse life after the reform and opening up.

Mom said, "When you go, bring more dried rabbits, dried shrimps, etc. They are in the factory and have nothing to eat. Give Yuehua and Yuehe some nutrition."

On the morning of the 25th, Long Jianhua got up at five o'clock. Unexpectedly, grandmother and mother had already gotten up and were making breakfast. Then, grandpa, father, and Yunyan also appeared one by one.

After breakfast together, grandma pointed to a large canvas bag in the corner of the wall and said, "Jianhua, bring this bag to Haojun."

He took out a stack of money from his pocket, "This hundred yuan is also given to Haojun... Although you got the things in the bag and the money, I have no ability and can only take advantage of you. Grandma, don't blame her for being partial, he is my son."

Long Jianhua's nose was a little sour, and he hugged his grandmother's shoulder and said, "Grandma, he is also my uncle, Yuehua and Yuehe are also my sisters, both of them are blood relatives, how can you blame you? If they are short of money, I will give them some at that time."

After putting the canvas bag into the car and fixing it safely, Long Jianhua sat in the passenger cab and left the alley while the two families waved goodbye.

Seeing my grandmother returning home after disappearing the car, shed tears and said, "I used my grandson's property to help my son. They were all brought back by my grandson when I got up early and went to bed late. I felt very uncomfortable in doing so and felt that I was useless."

The mother said softly, "Mom, Jianhua said it well, they are all blood relatives. Besides, Jianhua's ones are from the family. It's right to help relatives."

Grandma said, "He should be the ones that Jianhua earns, and he will have to marry a wife in the future... He believes so much money and so many things, he doesn't even look at them. He puts the money into the clothes bag and leaves the bag on the car. I feel even more guilty."

Grandpa coughed, "Okay, don't think so much. Jianhua and Xiulin are right. They are both blood relatives, and the whole family is right to help each other."...

At nine o'clock on the 28th, the car arrived at the living area full of low bungalows and stopped in front of a door.

Long Jianhua pushed open the cab door and jumped off, turned around and climbed into the car, handed over a canvas bag and two baskets, and then threw rabbits on the ground one by one. Then, he got out of the car and came to the door and knocked on the door a few times.

A little girl opened the door, stared at him for a few seconds, and then shouted, "Brother Jianhua! Dad, mother, it's Brother Jianhua here!"

Long Jianhua laughed and said, "Yuehua, you still remember me, brother."

He leaned his head into the room, "Uncle, aunt, I'm here to see you. Yuehe, don't you remember your brother?"

Long Haojun smiled.

Aunt Zhao Hongying said, "Jianhua, come in!"

Long Jianhua smiled and said, "I'll move the things in first. Yuehua, come and help."

"Okay!" Yuehua followed Long Jianhua and walked out.

Long Jianhua entered the house with a canvas bag and came to Zhao Hongying at the door and said, "Go and wash your hands and I'll cook for you."

Long Jianhua said, "There are still outside."

Pan Wenhua walked in with a basket, and Yuehua behind her shouted with two rabbits, "Sister, come out and get the rabbits! Brother, are you bringing a lot of rabbits."

Yuehe smiled and grimaced at Long Jianhua, and ran out with her short legs.

After Long Jianhua took the second basket in, he and Pan Wenhua went to the kitchen to wash their hands. After Pan Wenhua went out, he lifted the lid of the pot and looked at it. There was a small bowl of pickles and a small piece of pancake inside.

Long Haojun, Zhao Hongying and Yuehua sisters quickly brought all the rabbits in. Zhao Hongying also went out to observe the situation and said to the neighbors who opened the doors on both sides to observe the situation, "My old dragon's nephew is here."

After seeing the things in the basket, Long Haojun said, "How can I buy so much rice and meat? I have good luck by buying so many rabbits."

After washing his hands, Zhao Hongying came out, chased the father and daughter to wash his hands, and asked Long Haojun to make dinner for the guests, and then said, "Jianhua, where did you buy so many things? You know, we are 30 miles away from the radius of rabbit fur."

Pan Wenhua laughed and said, "The rice was bought on the road in Hu'e Province, and the meat was bought in your Shanjin Province; these rabbits were mainly beaten in Heyu Province and Shanjin Province. Aunt, you don't know, Jianhua beats rabbits, and one hits one by one."

Zhao Hongying smiled bitterly, "I used to have no meat to eat, but now I feel a little panicked when I see so much meat. Jianhua, let's sell some rabbits..."

Long Jianhua felt a little unhappy, "Aunt, are you short of money? Sell some, what do you eat in the future?"

Zhao Hongying shook her head, "We don't lack money here, but we lack meat, and we can't buy it even if we have money. Today you have so many rabbits, and the neighbors next door have seen it. We can't eat it alone... We can't only have meat to eat at home."

Because Long Haojun doesn't like to communicate with others, Zhao Hongying, who is also a foreign college student, is in charge of the family and outside.

Although Long Jianhua doesn't want to sell it, she knows the situation here better, and she will make sense of it.

So he nodded and said, "Auntie, please decide."

Zhao Hongying told him that he would collect the money, each of which was three yuan, and she would choose three large ones to give to the leader.

Long Jianhua accepted his aunt's words in full.

As she stood up, quickly lifted the canvas bags and two baskets to their bedroom.

When Zhao Hongying saw what Long Jianhua did, she sighed softly and brought a basket to carry three rabbits.

Yuehua pulled Yuehe and smiled and came to Long Jianhua, "Brother, I almost recognized you. You don't know, when I opened the door, I thought you were very familiar with you, but I didn't recognize who you were; but my brain reacted very quickly and I recognized you in an instant."

Long Jianhua laughed, patted her head, and then patted her forehead, "By the way, I brought something and forgot to the car."

When he passed by the capital of Heyu Province, it happened to be noon. The two got out of the car and had a good meal. He bought some candied fruit, sugar, biscuits, peach pastry and so on.
