Chapter 6 The First Generation of the Post-90s Generation

"Okay, then go ahead, I'm home!"
Lin Ziyi sighed and could only get out of the car with a sullen face.
Wang Yi continued to listen to the song: "No, guest, you are getting closer and closer, where are your eyes looking..."
The bus went all the way east until it reached the terminal station in the town.
Wang Yi walked around the town, first buying peach cakes that his grandma liked, and then buying water chestnut pancakes that his grandma liked.
I took a look at the styles and prices of shoes in town.
It was similar to what he remembered. The cheapest sneakers of decent quality cost 60 to 70 yuan, and leather shoes started at 70 to 80 yuan!
Wang Yi had some thoughts in his mind and looked at his wallet. He still had ninety yuan left and planned to buy two boxes of milk.
"Young man, what kind of milk do you want? Yogurt, 35 per box, delicious!"
Wang Yi shook his head. Yogurt is indeed selling well these days, better than pure milk!
It wasn’t until later under Hex Science that everyone started looking at the ingredient list and realized that this thing is just a drink, not even milk...
Wang Yi looked at the price and found that a box of pure milk was not enough.
I bought two boxes of plastic-wrapped pure milk with only raw milk in the ingredient list, which cost 70 yuan.
There were no buses on the last section of the road, so Wang Yi stopped a scooter:
"How much does it cost to go to Qinglai Village?"
"It's only 15 in Qinglai Village. Come on, young man, get in the car!" the uncle said seasonedly.
“Before, it cost ten yuan to sit there!”
"I really can't walk away with ten yuan, now it's only 15!"
"Then let me take a look." Wang Yi took a step back.
"Hi! We're all acquaintances, just ten yuan for ten yuan!" the uncle said without blushing or heartbeat.
The main thing is a rip off!
If you succeed, you will earn 13 yuan, but if you fail, you will earn 8 yuan.
Wang Yi was tricked by this old Biden in his previous life!
Grandpa and grandma are from the same village.
Only in my parents' generation did they work hard to buy a house in the county and gain a foothold.
Looking at the scenery along the way, Wang Yi felt a sense of home away from home.
The old man in his previous life is gone, and his hometown is gone too.
Wang Yi rarely goes back.
But every time I go back, I feel like there are fewer and fewer people in my hometown.
Now there are children studying in his primary school!
In two years’ time, all primary schools in the townships will be gone!
In order for their children to go to school, young people have to go to the county to buy a house.
When they arrived at the west end of the village, Wang Yi first stopped by his grandfather's house.
When her grandson came back, the grandma who was croaking at the door smiled from ear to ear.
Grandpa, who was watching TV at home, also went into the house and brought out a big watermelon.
"You haven't had lunch yet? Grandma is making you your favorite braised pork ribs! Your grandpa just happened to go to the market and buy pork ribs!"
"No hurry, grandma, please take a rest first."
Wang Yi put down a box of milk and took out the water chestnut pancakes.
"Xiaoyi is so filial. I know grandma likes to eat this, hahaha." Grandma smiled happily: "It's much better than your grandpa. He didn't even buy it for me when he went to the market!"
"I forgot this time!" Grandpa smiled awkwardly and handed a piece of watermelon to Wang Yi.
"Thank you grandpa, I brought you a pack of cigarettes!"
"Soft China!" Grandpa's eyes widened: "This pack of cigarettes can buy several kilograms of meat. Why did you buy this?"
"You bought it in the town, right? You're going to return it later, don't waste your money!"
"I didn't buy them, they were all broken." Wang Yida said.
Grandpa looked at it and saw that he really couldn't retreat, so he accepted it and then became serious:
"Without one cigarette, have you learned to smoke?"
"No, my teacher smoked it!"
"Oh, the teacher can smoke, so I should give him everything, why only give him one? It doesn't matter whether grandpa smokes or not!"
"Ahem, this cigarette belongs to him!" Wang Yi smiled awkwardly.
"???" The old man was immediately confused, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses: "Did you take your teacher's soft Chinese?"
"Well, if he continues to smoke, he will develop lung cancer. I am doing this for his own good."
The old man was silent: "..."
I think there is some truth to this, but I feel like something is wrong!
"Grandpa, please smoke less."
"Cough cough cough!" the old man coughed lightly:
"It's okay for me to smoke. The more I smoke, the more energetic I am! I'm 80 and can still go to the market by myself. You can tell me if it's bad or not!"
Wang Yi couldn't refute that in his previous life, his grandfather smoked and drank and lived to be 87!
If you force him to quit, he may feel aggrieved and it will be counterproductive.
Some people can't handle smoking and drinking, and may develop cancer in their fifties or sixties.
Some people can endure it, and the more they smoke, the more relaxed they become.
There’s no way to tell!
After lunch, Wang Yi and his grandfather sat on a recliner, blowing on the fan, eating watermelon, and talking about the past and the present.
Grandma was wearing reading glasses and holding a fly swatter, chasing down the little flies!
The peaceful afternoon was the most pleasant time he had had in so many years.
Especially when we reunite with someone whom we miss day and night in our previous life, the joy is indescribable.
After chatting until two o'clock, Wang Yi said goodbye to his grandparents and went straight to his grandma's house.
Grandpa passed away early, and grandma has been alone for these years.
Wang Yi was brought up by his grandma, and that feeling is very precious.
Opening the door, grandma immediately walked out with a smile on her face.
"Grandma, you didn't take a nap at noon." Wang Yi was a little surprised.
"I heard that you are back, and grandma can't sleep!"
Grandma has a kind face and light steps. She doesn't look like she is in her seventies at all.
Wang Yi put down the pure milk and took out the peach cake: "Grandma, this is still your favorite one!"
"Oh! You have used your pocket money yourself, so why did you buy these? Grandma is lacking everything here! Your mother and your aunt come here often!"
"They are here to fulfill their filial piety as daughters, and I am here to fulfill my filial piety as a nephew. It's different!"
In his previous life, he always felt that his days were long and he did not spend much time with the old man, which he later regretted.
In this life, it is natural to fulfill your filial piety well so that the elderly can spend their old age happily.
"Grandma, it's not easy for you to be alone. Please come back to the county with me to live there, so that I can take care of you more conveniently."
"No, no, no. In the village, all the neighbors are acquaintances. It's so comfortable to grow vegetables and have sex. But when I go to the city, I don't know anyone. How can I feel at home?"
"This... okay."
Grandma has always wanted to be strong in her life. Her parents wanted to hire a nanny for her, but she refused.
Perhaps it is because of a little hard work every day that many elderly people in the village live to be over eighty years old and do not get sick very often.
"Grandma harvested the leeks and baked them for you at night! She grew them cleanly without any pesticides!"
Wang Yi likes the chive pie made by his grandma the most. He can eat it every time he comes back: "I will choose the chives with you."
"No, no, you can just play on the side." Grandma put on her reading glasses.
"Then let me see what food is available at home. I will cook for grandma tonight!"
"You can cook now?" Grandma was a little surprised and beamed with joy: "That's great, Xiaoyi has grown up!"
Listening to my grandma’s hearty laughter, the old lady next door stared at the dead phone and sighed again and again...
The time spent with my grandma was very wonderful.
It's like going back to the carefree days of childhood.
As a result, Wang Yi had eaten too much in the evening and had to go out for a walk to eat.
"Wang Yi, you are back!"
A young man who was enjoying the cool air smiled and spoke.
He looked to be in his twenties, with dirt hanging on his black trousers and an unkempt appearance, and he was perfectly in harmony with the older men around him.
"You are..." Wang Yi was not impressed.
"It's me, Song Yang! You forgot, we went to school together when we were kids!"
"Oh, it's you! I remembered it!"
Wang Yigang wanted to ask where the other party went to college, but stopped.
He remembered that Song Yang dropped out of junior high school.
After that, I served dishes to guests in a restaurant and worked there for several years.
Later, he felt that the hotel wages were low, so he was introduced to the factory by his teacher.
I also felt that the factory work was tiring and I couldn't bear the hardship, so I didn't stay still for three days.
Now I just hang out at home, raise a few sheep, and occasionally do odd jobs.
The income is low, but the consumption in the village is also low. I don’t buy a house or a car, so I don’t have any big expenses. I have nothing to do but barbecue at home, and my life is comfortable.
A proper first generation of the post-90s generation!
