After becoming financially free, they offered their loyalty

Chapter 289: The Story of the Back Mountain

After Li Fuqing and the other two left, the lively atmosphere in grandma's house returned, and compared to the atmosphere just now, there was a bit more pride and honor.

Look, this is our son (eldest nephew)!
However, after seeing Shen Yuan's "arrogant and domineering" look just now, and comparing it with his current casual and relaxed attitude, I still feel a little uncomfortable.

On the one hand, it was because the last time Shen Yuan went home, he was still a student, but this time he had become a wealthy man. The change was too fast.

Furthermore, the wealthy people I see on TV all speak and act politely, but my eldest nephew is still the same as I remember.

Occasionally he would add some firewood to the stove, tease the big yellow dog from time to time, and still be as cruel as before when he insulted his own sister Shen Xuan.

"How can this be the appearance of a rich person? There is no change from before."

But if you say there is no change, the changes are quite big. The two luxury cars at the door and the "friend" Shen Yuan brought back who looks like a celebrity are all reminding them of the changes in their eldest nephew.

"Old Shen, our son has really grown up. You don't know how worried I was just now."

Li Hongjuan sat next to Shen Heping and whispered.

Shen Heping laughed: "I'm not worried at all. My son can earn so much money, so dealing with this kind of thing is a piece of cake."

"Oh?"

Shen Heping said confidently: "I have trained him well. When he was young, I always emphasized that he should dare to think and act, be bold and careful, so I am not worried at all when encountering such things."

"hehe."

Li Hongjuan sneered: "Just now when big brother went to get the hoe, you thought I didn't see you quietly picking up a red brick from the ground, and then silently threw it away when you found nothing."

"."

Shen Heping's expression twisted and he smiled awkwardly to hide his embarrassment.

Not long after, the courier came to the door. It was the massage chair that Shen Yuan asked Ji Ya to buy.

It is very convenient to send and receive express delivery in many rural areas now. Jinzhou Town is not remote, and orders placed on the Dongzi platform can be delivered directly to your home.

The courier placed the large box in the main room. Shen Yuan and his two uncles opened the box together, lifted the transparent dust bag, revealing the massage chair inside.

Grandma was led to the main hall by Li Hongjuan. After listening to everyone's explanation of the massage chair's function, she waved her hands and said, "I don't need this kind of thing. No, no."

Shen Yuan smiled and said, "Grandma, I've already bought it, so I can't return it. Try it, it's very comfortable."

"Can't retreat?"

My grandmother had never been online in her life and didn’t know the rules of online shopping, so she believed it as soon as she heard it.

"Yeah, so if you don't use it you can just give it away for free or throw it away."

Shen Yuan said with a smile.

“But I don’t know how to use it.”

Grandma said embarrassedly.

"I'll teach you once and you'll learn it."

Shen Yuan helped his grandmother lie down on the massage chair and pressed the switch: "Next time you want a massage, just press this button. It's very simple."

Then, the massage chair started to work.

At first, my grandmother was a little uncomfortable, but everything has a process of acceptance. Later, a look of relief gradually appeared on her face.

My uncle Li Baocai lowered his voice and asked, "Xiaoyuan, how much is this massage chair?"

"I do not know either."

Shen Yuan looked at Ji Ya: "How much did you pay for it?"

Ji Ya immediately replied: "More than 2."

“It’s so expensive.”

Li Baocai was surprised. He thought it was a luxury to buy a chair for several hundred yuan, but he didn't expect that a chair with massage function would be so expensive.

In fact, massage chairs come in both cheap and expensive varieties, but Ji Ya chose a slightly higher-end one.

After letting grandma experience the massage, the two aunts also wanted to try it, and Shen Yuan pulled his eldest uncle Li Baocai aside and asked, "Uncle, what is your budget for building a house?"

Li Baocai said without hesitation: "50 yuan. Labor is much more expensive now. If you built a house in the early years, 30 to 40 yuan would be enough."

50 may not be a big deal for Shen Yuan, but for his uncle it is probably his life savings. In addition to raising two children and supporting their grandmother, he hardly spends any money himself.

"How about this, uncle? I'll pay for the construction of the house, and I'll find someone to do the design. As for the construction, you're in this business, so you can arrange it."

My grandmother has two sons and one daughter. My second uncle, like Ms. Li, also lives outside. Only my eldest uncle has always stayed in the countryside, so my grandmother has always lived with him.

After the new house is built, grandma will naturally move in. Shen Yuan and Ms. Li usually don’t have many opportunities to show their filial piety, and since the house is being built, they might as well just pay for it.

"How can that be done?"

Although Li Baocai was honest, he was clear about the situation: "You don't live here all the time, so there's no reason for me to ask you to pay. Besides, I'm not short of money."

"Uncle, you are almost 60. If you spend all your money on building a house, won't you have no money for your retirement in the future?"

Shen Yuan patted Li Baocai on the shoulder and said, "Keep this money for yourself and your grandmother. I'll pay for the house. I plan to raise the budget to 300 million. Since we're going to build it, let's build it well."

Li Baocai's pupils shrank sharply: "300 million?"

"Correct."

"Yes, big brother, we will pay for the house construction. We don't have much time to take care of mom at home, so you are the one who takes care of everything inside and outside."

Li Hongjuan walked over and said, "We don't have the chance to fulfill our filial duties, so we can only contribute money. You still need to contribute to building the house anyway."

"This"

Li Baocai was so excited that he was speechless. He was already grateful enough that his nephew helped solve Li Fuqing's family problems, but he didn't expect that he would also help pay for building a house.

Shen Yuan explained the house construction to Ji Ya, and Li Baocai calmed down and suddenly thought of something: "Xiao Yuan, I have only built half a floor of the house, will it affect the design?"

Shen Yuan said indifferently: "It's okay, even if it doesn't work, we can just tear it down and rebuild it."

"That's it."

Li Baocai hadn't changed his mindset yet, but after hearing what his eldest nephew said, he realized that as long as one has money, many problems are not problems.

Before the meal, Shen Yuan asked Ji Ya to take out a bunch of nutritional supplements and tonics from the car, and then distributed a red envelope to everyone.

The red envelope is two sizes larger than the regular ones, and feels very thick, so you can tell at a glance that there is a lot of it.

There was exactly 1 yuan in it. Then Shen Yuan ran into the kitchen and stuffed a red envelope that was twice as thick into his grandmother's pocket.

Grandma said no, saying she had enough money, but after Shen Yuan’s repeated insistence, she finally accepted it.

In the countryside in summer, the night is the most comfortable time. There is no daytime heat, only a comfortable evening breeze mixed with fragrance.

After dinner, everyone sat in the yard and chatted.

All I could hear was the croaking of frogs. Large patches of green straw in the fields were blown down by the wind. Many sparkling fireflies were dancing on the straw. Above them was the sky filled with stars.

This kind of scenery is definitely not seen in the city. Only in the countryside can Shen Yuan feel as if the sky is very close and the stars are particularly bright.

Grandma took a palm-leaf fan and patted Shen Yuan's calves from time to time to prevent mosquitoes from sucking his blood.

The elders always talked about the children. For example, the aunt was talking about Shen Yuan's childhood. "Don't tell me, I still remember him playing in the mud in the fields with a dirty face. He's grown up now."

My second aunt also smiled and said, "Yes, at that time, Xiaoyuan stayed in the village for at least half a month during the summer vacation. Every time he did that, he caused unrest in the village. He was even wilder than children who grew up in the countryside. The neighbors were all worried that Xiaoyuan would corrupt their children."

Finally, even Li Hongjuan got involved: "Xiaoyuan was also very naughty in the city. I was called over by the class teacher every now and then. Once he got into a fight with someone and fell into the dry toilet. It was so smelly!"

No matter how thick-skinned Shen Yuan was, he felt embarrassed to be scolded by his own mother in front of so many people. He coughed awkwardly and signaled Ms. Li to stop talking.

But Li Hongjuan didn't give him face and continued to talk about his embarrassing childhood, which made the elders giggle.

My dear mother, your son is 22 years old this year, please give him some face. Shen Yuan thought helplessly.

Ji Ya listened with great interest. After all, it was not easy to get to know Shen Yuan's other side.

Finally, Shen Yuan couldn't bear to listen any longer, so he called Ji Ya and said, "Let's go to the wind power station on the mountain."

"Go ahead and come back early."

Li Hongjuan waved her hand and continued chatting.

At this time, Shen Xuan also stood up: "Brother, I'll go too."

Shen Yuan was too lazy to pay attention to her: "Why are you here to join in the fun? Go take a shower and go to bed early. There are so many people here today, and the bathroom will not be enough later."

"Oh."

Shen Xuan had no choice but to sit down again with a sad face.

A few years ago, a wind power station was built on the back mountain where my grandmother's house was. Shen Yuan thought the huge blades looked very beautiful when they were spinning, so he would often run to the back mountain.

But I was always alone in the past, but today I have Ji Ya’s company.

After driving for more than ten minutes, Shen Yuan parked the G63 under a wind turbine and got out of the car.

This kind of large equipment requires looking up to see clearly. The wind is strong tonight, so the blades are rotating faster than during the day.

If you visit the same place at different time periods, your mentality will be different.

I used to think this place was very beautiful, with rotating blades all over the mountains and the sky above my head.

But after a trip to southern Yunnan, I felt it was just so-so, not as beautiful as I remembered.

Not only was the wind strong on the mountain, but the temperature was also lower than down there. Ji Ya was only wearing a thin T-shirt today, with her hands huddled in front of her chest.

Shen Yuan glanced at her: "Very cold?"

Ji Ya nodded: "Yeah."

Shen Yuan opened his arms and said, "It's okay. You won't feel cold if you hold me."

Ji Ya hesitated for a moment, then reached out to Shen Yuan's arms. Her soft arms touched his warm and broad chest, and she suddenly felt less cold.

She put her arms around Shen Yuan's waist, rested her chin lightly on his shoulder, looked at the starry sky, and said with emotion: "Mr. Shen, it's so beautiful here."

"You don't have to call me Mr. Shen when you're alone."

Shen Yuan gently stroked Ji Ya's back: "But it's really beautiful here. It feels very close to the sky."

"Yes."

Ji Ya gently tapped her chin: "But I'm used to calling you Mr. Shen. If I don't call you Mr. Shen, what should I call you?"

"You can call me whatever you want."

Shen Yuan's fingers moved on her back, then to her waist and abdomen. Her slender waist felt great to hold in his hands, and finally Shen Yuan stopped on her buttocks.

I pinched it twice and it was chewy and soft.

Ji Ya's face turned slightly red: "Mr. Shen, you don't want to be here, do you?"

Shen Yuan did not say anything, but responded with actions. Ji Ya felt increasingly hot. She pinched Shen Yuan's back, bit her lips, and her body trembled inadvertently.

In the end, Ji Ya was a little unsteady on her feet. She pleaded, "Can we get in the car? It's too windy here."

Shen Yuan raised his eyebrows: "What did you call me?"

Ji Ya bit her rosy lips, hugged Shen Yuan tightly, and said in a mosquito-like voice: "Master, I am your midnight snack tonight, but can you enjoy me in the car?"

The next day.

After lunch, Shen Yuan and Ji Ya prepared to return, while Old Shen and Ms. Li took Shen Xuan to stay in the village for a few more days.

Before leaving, grandma stuffed two large boxes full of food into Shen Yuan's trunk.

"It contains stuffed tofu and pig blood meatballs. In addition, your uncle got up early in the morning to kill two chickens and two ducks, and chopped chili peppers."

Grandma held Shen Yuan's hand and told him in detail what was inside. She also told him to put the things in the refrigerator immediately after returning home. Some things had to be eaten within a few days, and some things had to be put in the freezer.

Shen Yuan didn't mind his grandmother's nagging. He listened to her quietly until she finished speaking, then took his wrinkled hand and said, "Don't worry, grandma. I've remembered everything."

"There's more."

Before grandma finished speaking, she patted Shen Yuan on the shoulder and motioned him to lower his head and listen.

Grandma was only about 1.5 meters tall, so Shen Yuan had to bend down to listen.

Grandma lowered her voice and said, "This girl is good. She is so pretty and she cares about you. If possible, you should get married soon."

It seems that Ms. Li did not tell her grandmother about Chen Na's existence. Shen Yuan smiled and replied, "That's not the case. We are just ordinary friends. Even if I like her, she may not like me."

Grandma stamped her feet and said unhappily, "Where did the energy you had when you were a kid chasing after younger girls go? At that time, if you liked someone, you would run into their room every day. I tell you, to chase younger girls, you have to be bold and careful, don't be afraid of anything!"

"Okay, okay, I got it, grandma."

Shen Yuan scratched the base of his ear, thinking that he would bring his grandmother to Xingcheng someday to let her see his ten girlfriends.

When it comes to chasing girls, your eldest grandson is a master!
With their grandmother's waving goodbye, Shen Yuan and Ji Ya left Jinzhou Town and returned to their villa after more than an hour's drive.

Shen Yuan helped Ji Ya put the food in the trunk into the refrigerator, and then asked Ji Ya to divide it into three portions. He planned to keep one for himself, one for the pregnant Nana, and one for Teacher Li who was moving.

I just happened to be free today, so I went to meet my sister-in-law Xinyu and the two sisters from the Li family.

However, plans always fail to keep up with changes. Just as Shen Yuan opened a can of Bingkuoluo, Zhou Peiwei's WeChat message came.

"Scumbag, is it convenient for me to visit your new home now?"

Shen Yuan didn't quite understand why the timing of this message was so clever. He had just been home for less than 5 minutes. However, he had politely declined the other person last time, so he had no reason to refuse this time.

Shen Yuan: "Come on, I'll wash and wait for you."

Zhou Peiwei: "You rascal! You'd better not take advantage of me like you did last time. I know Taekwondo."

Shen Yuan: "It's okay, my boxing skills are also very strong."

Zhou Peiwei: "Go ahead. I'm coming, pick me up at the door later."

After making an appointment with Zhou Peiwei's sister, Shen Yuan immediately asked Ji Ya to go and finalize the matter of building a house at his uncle's house.

Ji Ya knew that this matter was not so urgent, but since Shen Yuan brought up this matter, it meant that it was not convenient for her to be present at the person he wanted to meet at home, so she drove out in her Guard.
