Chapter 61: Sun Fugui's Story
Li Fan let his parents get in the car and drove along the way, and when it was close to lunchtime, the smoke of the village cooking was curling, and a strong pastoral atmosphere came to his face. Li Fan chatted with his parents while driving the car.
When talking about the interesting stories of the previous childhood, the family of three laughed together, and Li Fan suddenly sighed softly: "Mom and Dad, there have been deaths in the village recently?" ”
The smiles on the faces of Fan's father and Fan's mother slowly faded when they heard this, and they sighed: "Yes, the family of four is all dead, and you also know the one at the west end of the village, called Sun Fugui." ”
Li Fan nodded, just wanted to ask but found that the grandparents, uncles and other families had been waiting at the door for a long time, the Audi Q7 stopped smoothly in the open space next to the tree, Li Fan jumped out of the car and took out a large bag of things from the trunk and walked up with a smile: "Grandpa, grandma, uncle, aunt." ”
Grandpa Li Shoushi bent up with a smile on the pair of gray eyebrows on his face on crutches, and nodded tremblingly: "Li Fan is back, just come back"
Grandma and aunt took the things in their hands, and happily pulled Li Fan to the hall and sat down: "The meal will be ready soon, your aunt and second aunt will come soon!" ”
Li Fan looked around at this courtyard, which occupies a fairly small area, the house is built at the foot of the mountain, and when the back door is opened, it is a hill that is not high, and a small road in front of the door winds to the main road, and less than 500 meters is the sparkling Longgang Reservoir.
Although Feng Shui is not good, but it is not bad, the life of the uncle's family has been thriving over the years, but Li Fan prefers the old house halfway up the mountain, although it is a thatched house, but the old pear tree in front of the door, the stream behind the house, and the bamboo forest in the west have brought him incomparable joy and beauty in his childhood.
Li Fan's thoughts slowly soared, are there crabs under the rocks in the stream? Are there any big spiders in the bamboo forest? Are the pears on the pear tree still so sweet and sour?
Just when Li Fan recalled the interesting stories he had when he was a child, there was a commotion at the door, and the relatives had arrived, Li Fan hurriedly walked over and shouted one by one: "Auntie, second aunt, aunt, second aunt"
Everything is good in the countryside, but there are too many relatives, and it took a lot of effort for Li Fan to recall everyone's name after reading and strengthening his brain.
An old man smoking a cigarette said with half a smile and half a surprise: "Yo, this time I actually called them all out, I remember going up and still couldn't remember what it was called for a long time." ”
Li Fan scratched his head embarrassedly and beckoned them in. Two round tables were set up in the spacious courtyard of the farmhouse, and children ran happily around the round tables, shouting strange terms and sentences that only they knew.
The dishes on the table are very fresh, and the rice cooked from the grass pot (stove) is particularly fragrant, especially the pot left at the bottom of the pot, which is browned in color, and there is a different kind of crispiness in the mouth. In addition to the popular seed wine in Anhui. It's enough to stagger, you come and go, so it's not lively.
But the lively atmosphere was suddenly interrupted by a low whimper, and a man with a red face covered his face and cried, and large tears flowed down his wrinkled face.
Everyone put down their wine glasses and looked at each other, and the atmosphere suddenly cooled down.
The uncle's face was ugly and he wanted to scold, but he seemed to remember something again, walked to his side and patted him on the shoulder, and comforted him in a low voice: "Third brother, I know you feel uncomfortable, Sun Fugui is a good person, who of us doesn't admire him?" But man is dead! Today is the day when my eldest nephew finally comes back, so bear with me. ”
The third child held back tears and nodded, grabbed the uncle's arm and wanted to say something but said a word, which was a manifestation of extreme sadness.
The meal was originally happy for everyone, but in the end it ended hastily in an inexplicable depression and sadness.
After the meal, Li Fan and his parents came to the room, and when everyone outside was gone, Li Fan did the opposite side of his parents and asked solemnly, "Parents, what's the matter?" Tell me about it. ”
Fan's mother sighed: "Okay, in a few days, it's time to bury him, and the whole village will go at that time, let's talk to you." ”
Sun Fugui is not a local, but moved with his father when he was a child, and his father died early, leaving him only a few acres of land and a broken grass hut on both feet. Sun Fugui became an orphan early on, and the people in the village saw him as pitiful and often helped him. Even the uncle's family will give him some pork and beef during the New Year's holidays.
In this way, Sun Fugui grew up little by little, he had a flexible brain, was down-to-earth and hardworking, made a fortune by breeding, and married a famous beauty in ten miles and eight towns as his wife, and gave birth to two big fat boys.
After Sun Fugui got up, he did not forget the kindness of the villagers who helped him before, no matter who found him in any matter, as long as he could do it, several families slowly became rich with his help.
During the New Year, you must go to the uncle's house to pay New Year's greetings, respectfully kowtow to the grandparents, in his words, if there is no help from the uncle's family, there will be no grandson rich and noble!
I thought that life would go on like this, but when I thought of something, I thought about it.
Sun Fugui was optimistic about the development of wild fish in the future, and decided to engage in ecological farming, and contracted the Xinggang Reservoir and the mountain next to it, using the mountain to raise poultry and using poultry manure to raise fish.
After pressing all his net worth and taking out a large amount of money, Sun Fugui immediately took action, first cleaned up the water in the reservoir, cleaned up the silt and other debris in the reservoir, and bought high-quality fish fry and poultry for breeding.
However, I didn't expect that when the harvest season came, I found that there were not many fish in the reservoir, and the poultry were also infected with infectious diseases and died quickly.
If the loan money is not repaid, Sun Fugui couldn't sleep all night, so he discussed with his uncle and decided to clean the water in the reservoir again.
After the water was discharged, the two of them were furious, and a group of huge black fish appeared at the bottom of the fish pond! What made them even more angry was that the chickens in the chicken farm were fed with poisonous feed!
The blackfish is an extremely ferocious fish, with a strong fecundity and an incredibly large appetite, often eating all other fish in a lake or pond. These black fish are so large and fat that they look like adult fish have been thrown into this fish pond!
A few days later, Sun Fugui committed suicide as his repayment date approached, first feeding his two children paraquat and hanging himself in front of his family's fish pond with his wife.
The third child who cried at the dinner table was his brother, who once had no money for treatment, but Sun Fugui carried him on his back for more than ten miles to the hospital and helped him pay for the medical expenses, so he was extremely grateful to Sun Fugui.
After listening to his parents' narration, Li Fanyao popped the teacup in his hand. Seeing the surprised eyes of his parents, he hurriedly smiled: "It's okay, it's just too angry!" If I catch the murderer, he must be good-looking! ”
The parents nodded and said sadly: "Obviously a good person, hard-working and rich, but the family that was harmed by people died tragically, if God has eyes, he will definitely let the people who cast black fish and poisonous feed be punished!" ”
The corners of Li Fan's mouth quietly floated a sneer: "Yes, you will definitely be punished!" ”

This story was heard in my hometown in Anhui, and I only remember the general story, because it is too small to remember the specifics.
