Chapter 797: The Shen Family
Shen Jingjing sat in the passenger seat and saw a small figure from afar.
Not coming back for several years, the old lady had visibly aged a lot. Shen Jingjing couldn't help but feel moved looking at her.
"Look how happy Mom is, she's been waiting at the gate since early morning." Shen Chengcheng smiled.
The car slowly stopped at the gate. The old lady was anxious to open the car door. There was always some enthusiasm at the first meeting. She greeted with a smile: "You're back, it must have been tiring on the way, right?"
"Not tired, Mom, it only took two hours by plane."
Because they took first class, it was very comfortable.
Shen Jingjing and the others got out of the car one after another. Shen Ci followed behind her mother and aunt and called out: "Grandma."
"Hey, Aci!" The old lady looked at Shen Ci happily. Where in this town had she ever seen such a beautiful girl? She said joyfully: "You've really grown up, more and more beautiful."
Even the neighbors who saw the daughter and granddaughter returning from the big city to the old Shen family couldn't help but praise: "Sister-in-law has good fortune, this eldest granddaughter is really beautiful."
The old lady was proud. Her daughter's dress looked high-class at a glance, which meant she was doing well outside, and others must envy her.
"Hurry in."
This house is an old house, with a courtyard in the front and back. The backyard was turned into a vegetable garden. The old lady planted various vegetables and a few fruit trees.
Shen Jingjing and her sister grew up here. The structure of the house hadn't changed much, it was just renovated once in the early years and re-decorated.
The house was brighter and cleaner.
Apartments in Longyang Town are actually not expensive. With the salaries of Shen Mingming and Wang Chunyan, they could afford one.
But the old lady couldn't leave her sons. She couldn't leave either of her two sons, so they had to stay by her side, so they never separated the family.
Shen Mingming had three sons and one daughter, all still in school. Ordinary small apartments weren't enough, so they hadn't bought one yet, thinking about it later.
Shen Ci followed her aunt and couldn't help but curiously look at every corner. Shen Yingying couldn't help but say: "Mom, the house is still the same, it hasn't changed much."
"Yes!" The old lady replied loudly: "Nothing has changed, just repaired a bathroom, no need to run to the dry toilet."
Saying this, she looked at Shen Yingying and asked: "Didn't bring Guangrong back?"
"No, Suisui will be back in two days."
"You two sisters, it's not like you don't have sons, but you don't bring them back." The old lady couldn't help but complain.
The two sisters had long been used to it, and the old lady didn't say it on purpose. This kind of patriarchal concept is deeply rooted here. They would subconsciously blurt it out.
She was just afraid that Aci would feel uncomfortable after hearing it.
So Shen Jingjing subconsciously glanced at her daughter, only to find that her daughter was indifferent and didn't take it to heart at all.
"Mom, how is your health lately?" Shen Jingjing changed the subject and cared about the old lady's health.
The old lady is almost seventy this year, and has been healthy all her life, only getting seriously ill once when the old master passed away and she couldn't take the blow.
"It's fine, don't worry, with your eldest brother here, I'm doing well."
Knowing that the old lady valued the eldest brother the most, after all, the eldest brother was a cadre eating public food in the town, Shen Jingjing asked: "My eldest brother is also doing quite well, right? Is his work and everything going smoothly?"
Once talking about the eldest, the old lady's expression was full of unstoppable pride: "Your eldest brother is definitely doing well. He was transferred from the Water Conservancy Bureau to the Tax Bureau, and is now a deputy section-level cadre." ===== CHAPTER 798 =====
