As it turned out, Old Man Wang was indeed an influential figure in the village. As soon as he appeared at the gate, his position was already completely exposed … The main reason was that the sea village was now too rich. There were surveillance cameras installed on all the main roads, and the sea village was also covered by the "Divine Eye Project." Remote villages didn't have this kind of treatment.
But as the wheels of modernization continued to move forward, sooner or later, even some remote small villages would be able to become completely wealthy.
As soon as Old Man Wang returned, the whole village seemed to have become lively.
Old ladies from various families came to the village entrance and beamed at Old Man Wang. Like Old Man Wang, some of them were widowed, while others were here to play matchmaker … The most exaggerated was that there was even an old lady who planned to introduce her daughter to Old Man Wang …
"Yo, Old Uncle Wang, you've been gone for so long, but why do you look younger?" The first person to stand at the village entrance was an old lady called Wang Dongmei. Everyone in the sea village had the surname Wang, and in ancient times, the sea village had been founded by an aristocratic Wang clan. Although the Wang clan had gradually declined, the culture of the sea village still existed.
Nowadays, there were also villagers with different surnames in the sea village, such as the old man's two mahjong friends, Old Wu and Old Liang, who didn't have the surname Wang, but got along well with the villagers. However, the surname Wang was still the majority in the sea village.
Seeing that someone was "guarding" him from afar before he even entered the village, and that the person was this Wang Dongmei, Old Man Wang instantly felt that he had lost the upper hand, and was no longer in the mood to lament about his hometown. Right now, Grandfather Wang felt like he was one of those young people who went on blind dates in the cultivation park … The only difference was that other people's blind dates were based on fate, while Grandfather Wang's blind dates were forced to be arranged by fate.
"Uncle Wang, you're already so old, and your daughter-in-law lives so far away. Shouldn't your son and daughter-in-law be at ease if you find someone to take care of you? " Wang Dongmei took Grandfather Wang's hand and tried her best to persuade him, while Father and Mother Wang could only smile obsequiously on the side. In terms of seniority, they had to call Wang Dongmei auntie … as juniors, they didn't dare act rashly in front of this old man.
Although Auntie Wang was in charge of most of Elder Wang's blind dates, Auntie Wang didn't just treat Elder Wang. She treated everyone else as well … She lived like a central air conditioner. Not only did she live like an inextinguishable torch, but she also illuminated everyone else at the same time.
"Auntie Wang … why don't we go in and talk?" Father Wang tried to smooth things over as he straightened Old Man Wang's body. It was obvious that Old Man Wang had been traumatized by Auntie Wang Dongmei back in the village. At the mention of a blind date, he couldn't even stand steadily.
When the villagers found out that Old Man Wang had returned, they came out of their houses to welcome him. It was only a kilometer away from the entrance of the village to Old Man Wang's house, but hundreds of people of all ages and genders ran over to watch …
"Uncle Wang wants to pass through, all of you make way! Don't block Uncle Wang's way! "Auntie Wang Dongmei took the initiative to clear the way." Whose family's brat is this? Hurry up and take him down to do his homework! Why are you joining in the fun? Have you finished your summer homework? "
"I … I'm done!" A chubby kid in the crowd said weakly with a lollipop in his hand.
Auntie Wang Dongmei looked at this brat with a smile on her face. "Yo, so it's Tiger Wang's Fat Tiger! Our Fat Tiger has always been good, he's never sloppy! Everyone, learn from Fat Tiger! Then I have to give him a reward! "
"Thank … thank you, Wang …"
Fat Tiger blushed at the praise, and just as he was about to thank Auntie Wang for the reward, Auntie Wang said directly, "Remember to come to my office later to get a copy of Summer Vacation Life as a reward."
Fat Tiger was a little aggrieved. "But … but I've already finished …"
Auntie Wang: "Learn from the past, understand! Write a few more times! A good memory isn't as good as a bad pen! "
Then, Fat Tiger's cries came from the crowd …
Seeing this, several villagers hurriedly carried Fat Tiger away.
This act of killing a chicken to warn the monkeys directly frightened the brats who had been watching, and they all ran back home to hide.
Father Wang and Mother Wang: "…"
…
Old Man Wang's residence had been arranged by the government when he had been a village cadre, and it had been renovated several times. When he wasn't around, someone would often clean the courtyard. Now that they hadn't lived in it for half a year, Father Wang and Mother Wang could see that it was covered in dust when they opened the door.
Auntie Wang Dongmei frowned and directly threw out a spirit talisman to thoroughly wash the room. The talisman's foam dissolved in the air and washed away all the dust in the room, leaving only a faint and pleasant fragrance.
Father Wang and Mother Wang helped the old man sit down in a bamboo chair. On the other side, Auntie Wang Dongmei had people disperse the onlookers, and then she directly made tea in Old Man Wang's house without any regard for herself as an outsider. "Since Uncle Wang has brought his son and daughter-in-law back this time, let's be frank."
Father Wang and Mother Wang: "…"
Auntie Wang sipped her tea and smiled. "Uncle Wang, apart from completing my work perfectly in the last half a year, I've also found a lot of partners for you. Some are young and some are old. The young ones are inexperienced but sensible. The older ones may look old, but they're very meticulous when it comes to taking care of you. You see … "
"Auntie Wang …"
At that moment, Father Wang coughed.
Auntie Wang: "Go ahead."
Father Wang: "It's like this, Auntie Wang, my dad and I are here this time to pay respects to our ancestors, and also to visit our mom … Isn't it inappropriate to arrange a blind date for my dad now? Also, my dad actually doesn't have this intention … "
"How do you know Uncle Wang doesn't have this intention?"
Auntie Wang wasn't happy. "Uncle Wang is the pillar of our village! As long as he's here, the sea village will prosper! As a junior, you'd better watch your words! We're all hoping that Uncle Wang will have a second child! "
Father Wang and Mother Wang: "…"
But after saying this, Auntie Wang felt that her words did indeed sound a little harsh, so she said in a gentle tone, "Actually, I understand Uncle Wang's feelings … but Auntie Wang is already gone, and the dead can't be brought back to life! We still hope that Uncle Wang can get over this trauma as soon as possible. Since Uncle Wang isn't in the mood now, we can talk about it later. "
Considering that she was still in someone else's house and that the Wang family was paying respects to their ancestors at this critical juncture, forcing her to go on a blind date would indeed be forcing her against her will … Wang Dongmei had an idea and settled for the next best thing.
Throughout the process, Old Man Wang's eyebrows were tightly furrowed as he stared at Father Wang with a pleading look in his eyes.
Father and son were connected by heart.
Father Wang already understood in his heart.
It wasn't easy for him to make a trip to the countryside.
This time, he indeed had to think of a way to solve the problem of his dad going on a blind date … otherwise, the old man might not even be in the mood to pay respects to his ancestors.
But in terms of fighting strength, this Auntie Wang indeed didn't come with good intentions and was hard to deal with …
What should he do?
He didn't have any fans here to support him …
Father Wang suddenly felt a little anxious.
