Chapter 51: The Lu Family's House

I've been working on the construction site all the time, and for me, the construction site is like my second home, so calm! Every day is moving bricks, mixing cement and doing some dirty and tiring work. But I'm also enjoying it, after all, I'm also from the countryside, and doing these jobs is a matter of course!

In the past two years, my father's construction team on the construction site has been good, and I have successively repaid the money of some workers, and they are willing to follow my father all the time. Many migrant workers worked for a year, and finally the boss ran away, and the year was in vain. But my father is different, he started from scratch in the village, and he took a few nearby villagers to work, and his salary will be cashed in time at the end of the year, so many people would rather his father open less and follow his father to work!

The fourth uncle has always followed his father to work, and before his father failed to invest in the construction site, the fourth uncle also participated, and also lost some money! However, the peasants are honest and responsible people, and the fourth uncle is not like the other in-laws, who come to the house to move household appliances as wages! The father owes the fourth uncle several thousand yuan, and the fourth uncle has not asked for it back for several years!

Speaking of the fourth uncle, I have to mention the situation of my grandmother's family! This is a family that has witnessed history, and the rise and fall of the family has witnessed the development of the country and the warmth and warmth of the world!

At the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, there was a traditional Chinese medicine shop in the towns near Huainan that relied on selling herbal medicines! This was one of the branches of my grandfather's family back then! There were more than a dozen such shops in my grandfather's house! The three old grandfathers and brothers were all local refugees!

In an era of war and chaos, the people's lives were very miserable, and wars often broke out! But it was also often an opportunity for people to make a fortune. After the three brothers fled from Beiping and came to Huainan, they relied on their excellent medical skills to treat and sell medicine to some wealthy and large families, and gradually made a name for themselves!

The three brothers partnered to open a Chinese medicine shop and opened an entrepreneurial era in Shou County. Shou County, also known as Shouzhou, Shouchun. Huainan City is located in the central part of Anhui Province, on the south bank of the middle reaches of the Huai River, adjacent to Changfeng County in the east, adjacent to Huainan City and Fengtai County in the north, Huoqiu County in the west, and Lu'an City and Feixi County in the south. At that time, Shou County was a military powerhouse.

The war was ordinary, which brought a certain development to herbal medicine, and a large amount of medicine needed in the surrounding area needed to be resold in the north! The three brothers went through layers of checkpoints and opened up a secret passage for purchases, and every day batches of goods were transported to the city for sale!

Gradually, the shop became bigger and bigger, and more and more people were recruited! The three brothers opened two branches in total, and the three brothers operated their own businesses.

In the era of war and chaos, it is not safe to live in the city, and you must have your own territory, and the three brothers came to a depression on the bank of the Huai River, at that time there was no dam on the Huai River, and almost every year in the rainy season, a place would be flooded! Every rainy season, a large number of dealers would be flooded! The three brothers took a fancy to this large piece of land, because of frequent waterlogging, they spent very little money to buy a large piece of land!

At the same time, he also bought a piece of high ground near the depression and built a house. The three brothers decided to take good care of this low-lying area, and used the first half of the year to plant wheat on a large area of the lowland! Mobilize local farmers to pay wages to help plant the wheat, and the 1,000 acres of wheat were very good when the year was good. In the rainy season, the wheat harvest has already been exhausted, and taking advantage of the opportunity of the waterlogging in the rainy season, the dam was built to hoard a large amount of water, and the breeding industry was started.

Later, the three brothers' herb shops opened more and more, and at the same time, the family's fertile land also hoarded more and more, and the fertile land actually had a land deed of nearly 1,000 acres! The old mansion became bigger and bigger. The original surname of the refugees before knew that the three brothers had made a fortune here, and they all came to defect, and gradually formed a Zhuangzi centered on the Lu family compound! At this time, this place was called Lujiagou!

The three grandfathers and brothers became a very large landlord family in the local area! The three brothers also married daughters-in-law and had children! The whole family also prospered! The three brothers gave birth to several sons, and the sons grew up and gave birth to more than a dozen cousins!

My grandfather is a child of the youngest son of the third family, and he is also a single line! There are more than a dozen cousins!

The boss of the Lu family has become a big boss, and he has been sitting in the Lu Mansion! He is responsible for doing a good job in the education of more than a dozen descendants! The second and third masters are responsible for the affairs of the pharmacy and the other is responsible for the operation of thousands of acres of land!

The Lu family was originally from Langzhong, and they were also very friendly to the villagers next to them! Usually, the boss of the Lu family would help diagnose and treat a serious illness or a minor disaster for free! They were all poor people! The boss of the Lu family would never charge a single fee!

Sometimes there is a famine, and the boss of the Lu family will also open a warehouse to help the local villagers, after all, they are all from their own family!

The Lu family's family style is also very strict! Because it is Langzhong who fled to the capital to flee here! I have seen the invasion of the capital by the Eight-Nation Alliance, and I know that the country is about to die, and I also know that the country has long been in turmoil! I am very strict with the education of my own future life! I hope that in the future, I can cultivate people who will be useful to the country!

During the warlord melee during the Republic of China, several uncles and cousins of my grandfather's family were called to join the Beiyang warlords at that time, and they directly belonged to the Anhui army!

From then on, the development of the Lu family came to an abrupt end! The eldest grandfather fainted when he heard the news of the sacrifice of several young descendants of the family! From then on, the male members of the family were forbidden to join the warlord's army! Most of the family's business was also robbed by his peers!

It wasn't until later that the third grandson of the second grandfather's family, who secretly joined the troops of the national army, was wounded in the war with the Japanese devils in the ancient city of Shouxian and was sent to Lai's home! He was reported, and the Japanese came to the door, and the second grandfather spent a lot of money to redeem his life for the third grandfather in the hands of the Japanese! After this time, the third grandfather has been disabled!

My grandfather is the last able-bodied male in the family, there is no way, the family will never let my grandfather be a soldier again! The previous family male died because of the war, and the family could no longer lose the last and only able-bodied male in the family! Therefore, my grandfather was drowned by three grandfathers since he was a child, and at the same time, the mantle of Langzhong fell on my grandfather, who was only a few years old!

The three old grandfathers and grandfathers called their youngest grandsons to come to them every day to learn medical skills, and at the same time, they also had to go to the shop to recognize hundreds of medicines!

Grandpa didn't suffer much when he was a child, and the family doted on the young grandpa!

Grandpa has had a good education since he was a child, and when he grew up, he also inherited the mantle of several great-grandfathers!

When my grandfather was just an adult, the three old ladies passed away one after another! After the funeral, several descendants of the Lu family quarreled over earning that little inheritance.

For a little bit of something outside the body, a few surviving uncles and cousins divide the family property!

In the end, Grandpa was divided into more than a dozen acres of land and was blasted out of the Lu house!

Grandpa, with the third grandfather and some female dependents, moved west from Lujiagou to the current Fangjiaozi and built a few thatched houses, and started walking Langzhong to support their family!

And the Lu Mansion was hit by the Japanese devils in the Japanese bombing again, and a big hole was blown up! The remaining direct family members of the Lu family also moved out of the Lu House! There was no money to repair it!

Slowly, a large part of Nuo's mansion collapsed! Nearby villagers who wanted to build a house and lay the cornerstone would run to Lu's house to pull a cart or two! A century-old mansion was destroyed by later generations!
