On my way home from work in the afternoon, I received a call from my mother, saying that she had just cooked pumpkin millet porridge and asked me to drink it. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"I'm not going, Yangyang wants to eat steamed buns, I have to go home and make them for him." I said to my mom on my phone.

"Isn't it easy to eat steamed buns? I'll steam it for him, and you can just take it when you come over later. ”

"No need, I'll steam it myself, I'll have to wash a few clothes when I go back." I still don't want to go there.

"Oh, the clothes can be washed tomorrow, your mother calls for dinner and you don't want to come, what do you mean? Think your mom is annoying? ”

"Mom, what are you talking about, didn't I just go to your place yesterday? Isn't it enough to see you twice in three days? ”

"I have something to discuss with you today, so you better come over for a while."

"What's the matter? Then you didn't say it earlier, making such a big detour. ”

"Less nonsense, just come."

Hearing that my mother had something to discuss with me, I didn't refuse, turned around and headed south, riding my bicycle towards my parents' and younger brother's rented place. The weather was already hot in June, and there were stalls selling watermelons every few tens of meters, and halfway through, I stopped to pick out a large watermelon for my mother, sandwiched it to the back seat of my bicycle, and then copied an alley to go to my mother's.

As soon as I walked in the door, I asked my mother, "What's the matter?" It can't be your grandson who beat someone else's child again, right? ”

"Look at what you said, I always say that my grandson is so bad, my Xiaobao hasn't been criticized by the teacher for a month, and the progress is fast." Mom was a little upset when she told me that her grandson was bad, but I just love to joke with her like that.

"Really? Xiaobao has become well-behaved? ”

"What does it mean to be well-behaved, my little treasure is good, as for the occasional naughty trick-or-treating, that's normal, otherwise can children stay still a lot? Those who stay still are slow to react in their brains. You don't know, Xiaobao is sensible now, and he helped me mop the floor a few days ago. ”

"Ouch, Xiaobao mopping the floor was last month, and you've been talking about it more than a dozen times."

Listening to my mother praise her grandson's kung fu, I have already cut the big watermelon, the kind with thin skin and sand meat, I took a bite, the melon melts in the mouth, sweet and refreshing, delicious.

Unlike me, who cut and ate it herself, she saved half of it for her sons and grandchildren, and then chose a small piece to eat.

"Mom, you let go and eat, you can buy it again after eating." I advised my mother.

"It's cold, I can't eat too much."

"It's so hot, can you not eat something cold?"

"Can I compare to you? I'm so old, I can't stand it when I eat too much cold. ”

After eating the watermelon, my mother's millet porridge was also cooked, and I didn't wait for the buns to steam out, so I scooped a bowl of rice porridge and drank it first. When you eat at your mother's house, you can eat as you like, drink as you want, and drink as you want, without any rules. On the contrary, if you eat with your mother-in-law, you have to pay attention, you can't eat before your mother-in-law, and you can't chew and swallow, it's very troublesome. So every time I am with my mother, it is a big relaxation, as if I am still a child, no matter what is wrong, my mother can wrap it.

During the meal, my brother came back from picking up the child, and I greeted him, "Do you work the night shift or the morning shift today?" ”

"I'm not going to work for a security company anymore." The younger brother said.

"Don't go to the security company? So where are you going to work now? ”

"I'm not going there either."

"What? Not going to work? Why? "As soon as I heard that my brother didn't go to work, I was anxious, he didn't want to farm and work in the city, not going to work means that the whole family has no source of livelihood, he and his brother-in-law moved to the city to live in the past few years, almost every year to borrow money from me, speaking of borrowing, in fact, I know that this money is not going to come back, not to say that he is my own brother, just look at his current income level, even watermelons can't afford to buy, am I embarrassed to ask him for an account?

At this time, my mother came over with a watermelon, and while she handed a piece of watermelon that had been removed by her to her grandson Xiaobao, she said to me loudly: "Our village is going to be demolished!" ”

"What? Our village is going to be demolished? "Now I understand why my brother doesn't go to work, because my parents and my brother's family are about to get a lot of demolition money, with hundreds of thousands of yuan in their hands, who is still a security guard?

I know that most people look forward to and welcome demolition, because demolition can be exchanged for money and can make people rich overnight! My family is the same, they are excited when they hear about the demolition, and no one worries about life after losing their farmland, thinking that the considerable amount of demolition money will not be spent, and it will be enough for the whole family to live a good life. In this way, the mood of wanting to get rich was so impatient that he asked his younger brother to quit his job early and wait to count the money. Of course, the evicted households will not show a smile in front of the demolition party, and they will have to negotiate with the developer round after round until they get satisfactory compensation. Sometimes, the developer is unable to meet the requirements of the evicted households or wants to spend less money, so they will unexpectedly carry out a forced demolition, and in recent years, disputes caused by forced demolition and bloody cases have often been reported. But the process of demolition has not slowed down, today is not this place is demolished to build a commercial house, tomorrow is that place is demolished to build a factory, construction sites can be seen everywhere, engineering vehicles come and go, on the street, except for some ancient buildings that are designated as national cultural relics, more than a hundred years of houses are rarely seen, and some houses have been demolished in less than ten years.

"That's why I called you to discuss." Mom said to me with a smile. ”

"What are you discussing? Whoever wants to demolish it, just demolish it, anyway, you have long since stopped going back to the village to farm, and if you demolish it, you can still get back a sum of money, isn't it better than renting the land to others? ”

"But only the cultivated land can calculate how much money back, the house has been sold by your brother, and the remaining two old houses can be worth a few dollars, if he didn't sell the house at the beginning, this demolition will not be more than 500,000?"

The younger brother lowered his head embarrassedly when his mother said this, and it seemed that he had realized that he had made a big mistake in selling the house in the first place.

However, I didn't blame my younger brother with my mother, but excused him: "Don't mention the past, who would have predicted that it would be demolished now, and besides, our family's 20 acres of cultivated land can be a lot of money." ”

"There are also more than a dozen jujube trees in our family, which can also be counted as tens of thousands of yuan, which is an economic tree!" The younger brother added, as if to comfort his mother.

"I went back to the village a few days ago and saw a lot of people building houses. How about building a two-story building? A two-story building of more than 200 square meters, can the developer demolish it if he doesn't give 700,000 or 800,000 yuan? "I didn't expect my mother to come up with such an idea.

It's no wonder that my mother thinks crookedly, in this era of demolition and relocation, there is a strange phenomenon of building a house for the demolition of the house, some people in order to calculate more compensation with the demolition party, often have to step up the construction of the house before the demolition of the house, of course, this kind of house is simply built, only for demolition and not for living. However, the government's demolition party has noticed this cleverness of the evicted households and has formulated many measures to combat this kind of surprise construction. So I don't agree with my mother's suggestion, I don't want my family to seek this kind of benefit, not to mention that even simple houses have to be built with time and effort, and it is not as simple as a paper house.

"Mom, don't look down on others, let's not do that coaxing thing, let's make up as much as we can, if you don't do it, you will be fined, this is called private construction!" I said to my mother.

"Ouch, my daughter knows the law and abides by the law." My mom praised me in the opposite way.

"I don't think I'll cover it, I don't have time to do that." My younger brother, who didn't want to do manual work since he was a child, didn't approve of his mother's idea.

"Okay, if you don't build it, you won't build it, and I'll wait for 30,000 or 200,000 yuan from the developer." Mom was a little discouraged.

"It's more than 300,000 or 200,000, right? I won't sign if it's less than 500,000! The younger brother spoke very hard, as if he didn't take the developer seriously at all.

"It's still early before the demolition, and now I can't get angry about it." I got up and went to the kitchen, I had to see if the buns were cooked.

After a while, my mother also came over, and within a few minutes, the fragrant buns came out of the pot.

When I went home in the evening, I told Lu Tao about the demolition of my hometown, and Lu Tao was also very happy for my mother's family, saying that in this way, my mother and they would no longer have to rent a house, and they could use the demolition money to buy a high-rise building with ambiguous land in the future.

Two weeks later, Lu Tao and I returned to the countryside with my parents and brother, as the staff of the demolition and relocation office began to measure the area.

There were four or five people who came, registering while measuring, and the mother standing next to them kept reminding them: "Measure on time, don't count us less." ”

"Don't worry, auntie, I won't give you an undercount, I don't believe you can measure it yourself."

"Measure it yourself? Yes, it's okay to measure it yourself, Yan'er, you can measure it again, so as not to make a mistake. ”

Well, the staff reminded my mother, and I, who was considered by my mother to be a good student in mathematics, had to be ordered to take a circle ruler and re-measure the area of the two old houses in my house. But what my mother said is also right, and I can rest assured that I will measure it myself.

I measured it, and the area of my old house was 80.4 square meters, and the area of the yard was 186 square meters, which was the same as the number measured by the staff of the demolition and relocation office!

After measuring the old house, a group of people went to the field again to measure the farmland contracted by my family. My family's original contracted arable land is more than 20 acres in the village! And some people who have completely abandoned the farmland regret it this time. There was no dispute when measuring the area of cultivated land, but there was an objection to the converted price of the dozen or so jujube trees on the ground, and the demolition party offered 800 yuan each, while our family insisted on 2,000 yuan, so my father did not sign the demolition agreement and waited for further negotiations with the demolition party.

On the way back to the village from the field, I met a lot of villagers, all of whom were smiling, as if they had won the prize. As soon as they met, people talked to each other about how big the demolition area was and how much money they estimated to get. Since the village committee posted the demolition notice, few people in the village have gone to work in the fields, and they are all waiting to receive huge sums of money and live in high-rise buildings, as if they will be supported by someone after arriving in the city.

Fortunately, a month later, the whole village reached an agreement with the developer, which shows how high the quality of the people in our village is, and there was no bloodshed! What is even happier is that two months later, the families received the demolition money, and three months later, my hometown disappeared from the earth, and even the old locust tree at the head of the village was gone.

I, a person who married outside and worked in the city, was naturally not eligible for the demolition money, so I was not affected by money, so when I looked at my hometown that was razed to the ground, there was always a trace of melancholy in my heart, at least Yangyang could no longer go to his grandmother's house in the countryside to play. The villagers, including my parents and younger brother, who received the demolition money, were dizzy with money for a while, and they did not show the slightest feeling of longing for their homeland, and they all left their homeland happily. I think when they move into a tall building, they will remember their hometown.

Later, my younger brother used the demolition money to buy a three-bedroom building and a car worth more than 100,000 yuan, so that my younger brother was able to catch up with my current standard of living in just one night. I heard that most of the people who go to private primary schools are rich children, and Xiaobao, who grew up in the countryside, soak up with rich children all day long and don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing, I once suggested that my brother let his children go to ordinary primary school, but my brother thinks that I can't live, saying that if I don't use the money, it is equivalent to waste paper! What should I do if I say it's gone? He said he was going to open a store and he would be competing for more money soon! (To be continued.) )
