It was already noon when I arrived at the entrance of the village.

You can see many people enjoying the cool air at their doorsteps - the size of this village is not very neat, the houses are built on the ground, the roads are not very straight, and big trees are planted at the door of every household. A small river surrounds the village, which is a place with beautiful mountains and rivers - if the small land bun behind the village is also considered a mountain.

However, Lin Tao could see that the village was not rich. Because there was no road specially used for cars to travel. The asphalt road outside the village leads from the city to the entrance of the village. Although there are many pits, it is still good.

But the village is still full of dirt roads. It rained on this road - Lin Tao couldn't bear to think about the sour feeling.

The road is only three meters wide, and it is not possible to have two cars side by side. Lin Tao saw grasshopper legs (handle tractors) parked at the doors of some houses.

There are indeed two floors in the village, but the walls painted with pure cement have no decoration at all.

Wealth is limited.

The car could barely drive in. At first, Du Tongshan was excited to introduce who this family was, who that family was, the most luxurious second floor was the village party secretary, etc.

But the further he went, the less he said, until he was silent.

Lin Tao knew that this was an emotion called "nearby love and timidity".

Once upon a time, I had similar emotions.

This is normal.

The car stopped slowly. Lin Tao did not speak, waiting for Du Tongshan to speak.

Outside, there were children who liked the fun and watched curiously around the car. It seemed that it was not a big deal to have a car in this village.

You can even see many adults standing at the gate of the yard, probably curious about whose relatives came from.

Fortunately, Lin Tao stopped at an intersection and was not at the gate of his yard, otherwise it would be bad if he caused a misunderstanding.

A few minutes later, Du Tongshan pointed to a yard in front of the right and said, "That's our home."

Lin Tao took a look and understood a little.

The yard is made of earthen walls. Over time, there have been gaps and traces of repair, but it cannot hide the feeling of dilapidation.

The house is a dirt house. Along the way, there are still several dirt houses, but most of them are built with brick walls and large iron doors. However, this yard is pure dirt walls, and the doors are old-fashioned old wooden doors. The doors have been repaired many times, and the wood colors are different.

From here, the roof of the bungalow has been repaired several times, and the rafters are broken.

But the entrance of the courtyard was cleaned cleanly, unlike some entrances where there was a lot of household garbage.

"Let's go!" Lin Tao started the car, "This house is indeed time to be repaired!"

The car stopped at the door. Before Lin Tao could stop, Du Tongshan got out of the car impatiently and rushed directly to the gate of the courtyard.

Lin Tao smiled bitterly. It seemed that he had to act as a porter. Du Tongshan was full of family in his heart at this moment, and I'm afraid he would never have thought that there were so many things on the car.

The things were bought by Du Tongshan, and Lin Tao only bought some gifts. This is part of Du Tongshan's filial piety and cannot be done for him.

The gate of the courtyard opened as soon as it was pushed, and there was obviously someone inside.

"Dad, Mom!" Du Tongshan shouted loudly and walked in quickly.

Lin Tao followed closely behind with two big bags from the car. Someone who was surrounding the car shouted: "The boss of the Du family is back!"

Then he went home to report the news.

Lin Tao laughed in silence. It was like when something big happened, there were usually sentry detectives from various forces around him.

Although the courtyard looks simple, it is clean and clean.

"Hey... Tongshan is back?"

An old man came out of the house.

Lin Tao doesn’t need to guess, just take a look and you can confirm that this is Du Tongshan’s father.

But what surprised him was that according to Du Tongshan, his father was only fifty-three or four years old. Now, looking at his face, Mr. Du is 60!

Lin Tao instantly understood: This is the reason for fatigue.

The back is a little hunched.

Mr. Du was a little excited. He looked at Du Tongshan, tugged the corners of his mouth, and laughed, and said, "It's good to come back... It's good to come back... This person..."

Before Du Tongshan could speak, Lin Tao came forward with something and said with a smile: "Du Dabai, I am a colleague from Tongshan. My name is Lin Tao. Come with him to see your two elders!"

"It's OK, it's OK!" Mr. Du smiled and nodded, grabbed the collar of his clothes with both hands, and then said, "He's here, why are you bringing things?"

Lin Tao smiled and explained: "This is not all the things I bought, it was bought by Tongshan himself. Tongshan became the leader, the salary is high and there are bonuses. This is what he bought to honor your two elders!"

Mr. Du couldn't believe it and looked up at Du Tongshan.

"Yes...yes!" Du Tongshan nodded fiercely: "This time I have improved a technology, and the company... gave me a reward of 100,000 yuan. Our family has money!"

The neighbor who had just heard the news came to the door and heard this sentence and immediately realized that the Du family was rich!

This news was the same as the news just now, and it soon spread throughout the village.

Lin Tao was allowed to enter the house.

Like the yard outside, the furnishings in the house are very simple and outdated.

But it was cleaned very clean.

Lin Tao felt respect.

Du Tongshan's mother also looked very old-fashioned. Lin Tao felt a strong sense of kindness in the old man.

He brought out local specialty mountain fruits and kept letting Lin Tao eat them. Because Lin Tao said he was Du Tongshan’s colleague, and because he was younger than Du Tongshan, he could tell from this that he treated Lin Tao like Du Tongshan’s younger brother.

This feels so good, but the nose is prone to soreness.

All the things were moved in, and the two old men scolded them - money was not spent like this. No matter how much money was, it could not be spent indiscriminately!

This is the old man's philosophy of life. In Lin Tao's opinion, just listen.

I would rather buy things for the elderly than give more money - if I give too much money, I will not be willing to spend it and save it.

It’s better to buy things directly to improve living conditions.

However, the chat didn't last long and was interrupted by the neighbors and villagers who followed one after another.

When a person walked in, he quickly squeezed into the room. He was talking and asking about Du Tongshan's situation. After seeing the things in the room, his eyes lit up.

I understand this: the boss of the Du family is promising!

In fact, in the eyes of the villagers, the boss of the Du family should have made a fortune after getting into such a good university.

But I haven't come back for a long time after graduation. It is said that I came back quietly for two days and left quietly. Many people wondered if Du Tongshan had no prospects in college, so I was embarrassed to come back.

Now it seems that it is indeed a promising success.

Although it was a few years later.

But after all, it's a promising future, isn't it?

Isn’t there any other saying that you are late for success?

The compliments kept saying, a few were praising Du Tongshan, and most were praising the Du family's two elders for being proud of their spirit and should enjoy a happy life. A very few were asking about Lin Tao's identity.

Lin Tao deliberately said loudly that he was Du Tongshan's subordinate and part-time driver, which made many people's eyes brighter.
