Chapter 829: 819. Have a drink.

The matter of road construction was urgent.

But this isn’t for them to decide, Song Tan, no matter how anxious, could only wait.

Not until the National Day holidays ended, did Secretary Xiaozu bring over a bottle of Maotai:

“Song Tan, Song Tan! The road construction plan is out! Where’s Grandpa Song? We must drink to this fantastic news!”

Song Tan was also extrely pleased, she reached out to take the bottle and feigned politeness: “Look at you, just coming here is enough, why bring wine…”

“Oh.” Secretary Xiaozu moved away her hand, “Where’s Grandpa Song? I want to drink with him.”

Song Tan looked at her with suspicion.

After a while, as she saw Song Youde approaching, she joyfully shared the good news again, then handed over the alcohol: “I’m so happy today, I brought so good wine! Drink a bit more!”

However, Song Youde frowned slightly, “We’re all family here, why stand on such ceremony? Take your liquor back, we have good booze at ho—it’s been fernting for a couple of months now? Surely it won’t get us drunk so quickly!”

Secretary Xiaozu imdiately bead with joy: “Grandpa Song, you’re so good to , just like my real grandpa!”

In the distance, Lao Zhu sighed deeply while holding an empty bottle.

Nearby, Song Tan thought, you cunning Xiaozu!

But despite saying that, she still made a trip to the back mountain—she had modified the Sweet Potato Cellar earlier and even managed to get so beautiful marbles from Qiaoqiao to serve as a dium for Spiritual Energy…

Song Youde wasn’t wrong, that liquor must have aged beautifully.

She opened the cellar door, and as the Spiritual Energy filled the enclosed space, she quickly jumped in when no one was around and fetched a bottle of alcohol.

When she climbed out, she saw Da Wang poking around and couldn’t help but rub his head and play with him for a while:

“Da Wang, for the New Year’s, let’s invite your previous owner for a pig-slaughter feast, have a good catch-up!”

“Also, there’s nothing urgent lately; you can swap posts with them and have fun roaming around.”

The Chestnut Woods were left unattended, and the vegetable garden was also neglected, the treasures played in the back mountain every day, balancing work and leisure, which made even the family mbers envious!

Initially, the Qibao that was picked have now grown substantially, previously they had no assigned duties, now they patrol around the plant…

Raising a dog for a hundred days, there’s always a post to fill!

Several guard dogs strutted proudly each day, learning from the experience of the previous treasures, now they look quite professional in their patrols!

Moreover, Master Jiang from the canteen adores them, often cooking special als for them, and in just over half a month, they’ve beco even glossier and robust.

Da Wang, upon hearing Song Tan’s words, happily raised his paw and then began barking joyfully, which made her feel rather complicated.

Because Da Wang’s previous owner, Wang Zhen, his attempt to make a coback… had not taken off.

At least from what she sees on his social dia status, it’s still the sa old situation. It’s not that he’s broke, but raising Da Wang was no longer feasible.

There’s also a quite brutal truth—

That is, over ti, Wang Zhen had gradually lost interest in Da Wang.

For the first two months, he sent things to Da Wang frequently—leashes, harnesses, dog bowls, bathing supplies, snacks, dog food, etc…

And also actively kept in touch, liking and interacting with posts about Da Wang…

But now, they hardly talk anymore.

Truthfully, Da Wang was no longer his dog, so his actions weren’t really inappropriate, even saving him from the pettiness so owners might feel.

But… Song Tan could sense, those were not the reasons.

He just didn’t care as much anymore.

That’s alright, Da Wang is also very happy nowadays.

Song Tan touched its head again: “Go have fun at the Riverside Beach. So new dogs at ho haven’t recognized you as the leader and haven’t had ti to properly honor you… You should check on them more, they are new and not as steady as you!”

“If our house didn’t have Da Wang, the dogs would end up fighting sooner or later!”

Da Wang instantly perked up, its brand new rainbow bib fluttering proudly.

“Woof!”

When the liquor was brought back, Seventh Uncle suddenly cheered up, and then suddenly said, “If I pass out tonight and don’t wake up, you guys should look for Xiaojian for dinner.”

Song Tan caught on, distressed, “Seventh Uncle, you’re so cruel! Master Jiang is eating with us while you guys just drink and he just watches?”

Ah, this, ah this.

Seventh Uncle was left speechless.

However, Song Tan opened the bottle and slled it: “It’s okay, it shouldn’t be like last ti – if you’re really worried, I’ll dilute it with so water.”

Seventh Uncle angrily snatched the bottle: “Don’t ruin good stuff like that – if it becos too much, just splash

with a ladle of cold water to wake

up, won’t that do?”

Then, he and Song Youde exchanged glances, both old n finally revealing a relaxed expression.

Actually, Granny and Grandpa were cheerful and suddenly said, “Tantan, call your aunt and tell her we’ve been staying here for a couple of months now, we miss ho a bit, ask her to help tidy up the house in the afternoon, and get the quilts out for so sun.”

Song Tan was stunned, “Grandpa, aren’t you living well here? Why do you want to go back?”

Grandma was also cheerful, “The work of weaving straw mats here is done, there’s not much to do in autumn, I’ll go back and look after the yard and the chicken and ducks for your uncle and aunt.”

“They want to go out for work!”

Wu Lan also heard this and beca sowhat anxious, “Go out for what? If you want to work, I have—”

“No rush, no rush.” Grandma patted her hand, “Leilei still needs to start a family in the future, there will be many expenses. They can endure hardships, working outside until New Year, they can save tens of thousands, it’s more suitable than here.”

That’s indeed true.

Aunt and uncle chose places to work that only offer high salaries, like shoe factories, plastic factories, chemical plants, uncle even goes to construction sites to find work… working two or three months a year, the couple can save up to fifty thousand yuan!

But those high-paying jobs also require older workers…

Song Tan was a bit anxious.

Grandma, on the other hand, was more open-minded, “Your aunt and uncle are reliable people, working two or three months a year won’t interfere with anything.”

“Don’t even ntion working over here, they know it too, the wages aren’t high, it’s not suitable.”

“But after New Year, when it’s not busy, have your uncle co help with raising cattle and sheep, let him learn a bit.”

“Leilei has grown up, Lingling has too, they don’t even dare co ho for holidays, earning money for work outside—when it’s ti for Lingling to get married, the dowry, and even more for Leilei’s wedding…”

Although Grandpa was in a wheelchair, his spirits were much better than before, and at this mont he seed more open-minded than the younger people:

“Tantan, I know you care about your uncle and aunt—but they already called earlier to talk about it, they’ve found a place, don’t stop them.”

“If it weren’t for worrying about Leilei being unreliable, they would have gone before Mid-Autumn Festival. If you really care, next year when your elder uncle has learned to raise cattle and sheep, help him find a buyer…”

Song Tan helplessly: “You can count on

for that.”
