The day after returning to China, Wei Ran drove the car left by Chen Guangling and went to the scrap factory under the guidance of the navigation system. He successfully sold the gold melting equipment he had bought at a high price for a mere penny. After that, he immediately rushed to the city without stopping and returned the car and house keys to Chen Guangling.
After being persuaded by the other party, Wei Ran stayed for a meal and left some gifts prepared in advance before rushing to the high-speed rail station to surprise his parents.
Unfortunately, when he opened the door with the gift and waited until eight o'clock in the evening, no one came back at all, not even the crooked pug.
The unbeliever once again went to the house across the street that was nominally his own and looked around, but there was also no one there.
Could it be that he was going to his grandma's house? Wei Ran thought about it for a while, but finally decided not to call and ask, but decided to wait until tomorrow.
In the blink of an eye, the next morning, the safe purchased online at a high price was finally delivered to your door. Several staff members worked together to carry it into a well-insulated study room.
Wei Ran sent the staff away politely, locked the door and closed the curtains, and then immediately took out two gold bars from the food box and locked them in the safe. As for the remaining It cost more than forty yuan, but he hid it all in the background wall built by Suisui with two large lifting poles.
After finishing these tasks, Wei Ran weighed the remaining piece of gold scraps in his hand, put it into his pocket, and looked at the opposite door again. Seeing that his parents still had not come back, he Reluctantly, he picked up the gifts, took the car keys, and left home in his father's car parked downstairs.
First I went to a local gold shop that had been open for many years. I used the gold scraps in my pocket to make a gold bracelet for each of my two grandmothers. Wei Ran went to a local gold shop with a good reputation because he was familiar with the business. Gao's bulk wine shop bought two large jars of the best grain wine, and also bought a stainless steel funnel, and then turned the car and drove towards my grandma's house.
However, when the car left the city and reached a secluded rural road, he once again stepped on the brakes and stopped in the shadow of a willow tree on the side of the road.
Opening the door and looking around, he saw that there was no one around and there were no surveillance cameras, so he slowly got into the back seat.
Opening the cork of a jar of liquor and smelling it, Wei Ran nodded with satisfaction and took out the oil barrel specially used to hold water in the metal book under the cover of the back of the seat.
After pouring out all the remaining mineral water, Wei Ran took out a stainless steel funnel and put it into the mouth of the bottle. He carefully poured some white wine into it, cleaned it together with the funnel and poured it on the roadside. Filled two large jars of food and wine.
After fastening the lid of the barrel with gold coins, Wei Ran took out the oil barrel specially used to hold wine, poured the remaining liquor into it several times to wash away the remaining beer inside. After tasting the wine, he closed the lid of the barrel with satisfaction and waited to fill it with that big brand of good wine when he returned to the capital.
These wines are naturally prepared for the Olympic Games that he can't wait for. Although he doesn't know if he will have the opportunity to take them out by then, there is nothing wrong with making preparations in advance.
Shaking the wine jar, he saw that there was still more than a kilogram of Fugen'er inside. Wei Ran did not waste it. He took out the wine bottle and cleaned it in the same way, carefully cleaning it. After filling it up, he threw the wine jar into the roadside drainage ditch, restarted the car and drove away.
When he drove the car to his grandma's village, he saw a red brick courtyard wall and a row of almost identical brand-new tile-roofed houses that were completely connected to Suisui's grandma's house.
Even when he walked into the yard carrying gifts, he could still see several old carpenters from the village making solid wood furniture on site, and Suisui, a little gadget, was being raised at this time. I have a camera to take photos of these old men.
"Can I help you?" Wei Ran approached Suisui and asked, using his feet to pull away the pug that was spinning around him.
"Cut something for me, when will you come back?"
Suisui exclaimed in surprise and subconsciously wanted to hang it on Wei Ran. Fortunately, this guy who is crazy about gadgets finally knows where this is.
"I came back yesterday"
Wei Ran handed the gift in his hand to the other party, politely greeted the old craftsmen and dispersed a circle of smoke, and then followed Suisui asked as she walked into the yard of her grandma's house, "Where are my parents?"
"You didn't wait for them at home all day, right?" Suisui reacted immediately .
"I didn't wait" Wei Ran spread his hands innocently.
"It's weird that you can wait," Suisui explained gloatingly, "They went on a business trip to Shu a few days ago, and it is said that it will take more than half a month to come back."
< p>"What about you, when are you going to Inta?" Wei Ran asked, changing the subject. < /p>“You haven’t booked a flight ticket yet, right?” Wei Ran continued to ask.
"No," Suisui shook her head and said with a hint of complaint, "You didn't say when you would come back."
"You're not coming back."
Wei Ran patted the top of his opponent's head, greeted the two elderly people who had already walked out of the house, and then took out a pair of bright and shiny shoes from his pocket. The big gold bracelet decorated with lotus patterns was personally put on the hands of the old ladies from the two families.
"You are rich," Suisui's grandma asked in surprise, "This thing is really made of gold."
"Fake, made of copper." Wei Ran smiled playfully. Fooling this old lady.
“Bullshit,” Wei Ran’s grandma laughed and scolded, “You can’t tell the difference between gold and copper.”
“Just wear it as if it were copper.”
Wei Ran continues to smile playfullyHe shared the gifts he brought with the elderly and asked casually, "Grandpas, what's delicious for lunch?"
"Noodles"
Grandpa Suisui greeted Wei Ran sat down at the table, took out a half-frozen cold watermelon from the refrigerator and said, "You didn't even say a word in advance when you came. Now it's too late to get you something delicious."
"Noodles are not bad either"
Wei Ran found two small stainless steel spoons and gave one to Suisui, who was already guarding the watermelon. After filling his mouth with a mouthful, he asked curiously, "Why are you thinking about breaking up furniture at this time?"
"This girl Suisui's crazy idea"
Wei Ran The grandfather brought out a basket of fried peanuts and said, "This little girl said that the beams that were dismantled from the old house were thrown away and wasted, so she just used them to make some tables and chairs."
At this point, Wei Ran's grandpa slapped his forehead, stood up and walked inside and said, "Wait a minute, when we demolished the house, we found some things from the beams."
"There's something good again. "Something"
Wei Ran was stunned. When Suisui's grandpa's house was renovated, he dug out a photo frame. He also used the negatives in the metal book to help re-developed the photos. Now those photos can be It's hanging on the wall of the main room.
While thinking of those photos, Wei Ran also guessed what his grandfather found on the beam. If nothing else happened, it should be the North China Liberation coin that his great-grandfather Han Shoutian had obtained. Medal
As expected, before Suisui could swallow the watermelon in her mouth to help explain, Wei Ran's grandfather had already placed a wooden box on the table, opened it, and took it out from inside An iron box wrapped in red cloth.
"This thing was originally tied to the beam with red cloth." Wei Ran's grandfather handed the iron box to Wei Ran as he spoke.
“This girl Suisui said you must be interested in this thing.”
Wei Ran’s grandma helped explain, “If you asked me at the time, I might as well hide this thing. Forget it on the beams of the new house. Those things are no better than Mr. Jiang.”
“I didn’t say not to put them up.”
Wei Ran’s grandfather argued aggrievedly. , "Our house doesn't have a suspended ceiling yet. We want to show it to the child. After we finish it, we will build a ladder and tie it to the beam."
"Arrived. I'll help you put it up when the time comes." As Wei Ran spoke, he gently opened the iron box, which was only the size of a cigarette box.
As expected, there is indeed a commemorative medal for the liberation of North China preserved in it. In addition, there is also a cloth badge with "Chinese People's Liberation Army" printed in seven black characters on a white background and red edges, and A red five-pointed star metal cap badge.
Turn over the badge to the back, and it turns out that it has the number of the army that his great-great-grandfather Han Shoutian once served in and his position written on it.
"These are the things left by my great-grandfather" Wei Ran asked.asked without any need for an answer.
"No"
Wei Ran's grandfather said with emotion, "The old house was built after your grandma and I got married. Your great-grandpa personally took care of the main beams. Someone put this iron box up. I guess he put it up at that time." Suisui, who had a mouth full of watermelon juice, suggested, "Grandpa, why don't you pick a good day and put that iron box in." Put the box and its contents on it."
"If you have anything to choose from, do it now."
Grandpa Wei Ran said with a smile, "This kid will have a good life when he comes back, Wei "Ran, help grandpa put the box up."
"Okay"
Wei Ran agreed happily, and quickly put the medals and other things back in the iron box. inside.
"Wait for me for a while" Suisui wiped her hands randomly, I have been waiting for this moment.
Before she finished speaking, this little thing had already ran out of the main room. Soon after, she took out a small wooden box carved with festive patterns such as bats, longevity peaches, etc. from her room and ran back.
"I asked my uncle to help me make this box." Suisui pointed to a middle-aged carpenter who was busy outside and said, "I exchanged it for a good cigarette."
< p>"You are the only girl who is smart."Grandma Wei Ran smiled and praised him. As for the uncle Suisui mentioned, he was naturally just a member of the same family in the same village.
After Wei Ran had washed his hands, he solemnly put the thing that represented the honor of his grandfather and father into a specially made wooden box. The uncle who was originally working in the yard also took the initiative to come over. , helped permanently seal the lid of the wooden box using the inherited mortise and tenon technique, and used a brush dipped in cinnabar to write some good wishes on the varnished box that only traditional carpenters like them could understand.
Compared with the nomadic tribes who were praying devoutly in the desert, it was really difficult for Wei Ran to explain the emotions of his grandma and grandpa who were busy setting up the tribute cloth and incense table on the newly made table in the center of the yard. In the end, what you do can be regarded as a belief or a so-called feudal superstition, or a more appropriate traditional custom.
But he knew that this ancient ritual passed down from his ancestors, as well as the commemorative medals, five-pointed star hat badges, chest badges and other items that were sealed in the box and were about to be delivered to the beams of the new house by himself, what they represented , all of them are simple blessings from ordinary people for the prosperity of the country and the people, and the gratitude and remembrance from the bottom of their hearts to those who have selflessly sacrificed for the prosperity of the country and the people.
