Oishi Village, because there is a big stone in the village, so it is called Oishi Village.

Dashi Village is not big, there are only about 200 households, there are paddy fields in front of the village, and there is a forest behind the village, but because there are not many paddy fields, the per capita is even less.

Therefore, when it is impossible to support a family by cultivating paddy fields, especially if there are many children and elderly people in the family.

In recent years, there have been a lot of people who have gone out to work, and there is no way, otherwise they will not be able to survive at all, so most of the people left in the village are the elderly and children.

Fang Ming's family is different, although there are many children, and there are also old people, but Fang Ming's father Fang Zhonghua has a lot of strength, in addition to farming, he can also go up to the mountains to hunt and collect medicine, so although the family is not rich, but it can also get by, of course, what makes the Fang family even more different is that the eldest son of the Fang family is studying, and people in villages within a radius of hundreds of miles believe that the Fang family will soon have a college student, so everyone will look up a few times when they see Fang Zhonghua.

Everything is inferior, only the reading is high, and the poorer the family, the more able to understand the truth.

However, the Fang family seems to have "failed" overnight, the reason is that Fang Zhonghua, the pillar of the Fang family, once fainted while working in the field, and was sent to the hospital for examination but said that he could no longer live a life, as if there were other diseases and the like. Novel ybdu.

This is what Fang Ming is facing, so he resolutely decided to quit school and work to support the whole family.

"Huh? Isn't this the kid from the Fang family? How did you get back? ”

"Didn't he go out to work? It's only been a few days, right? Why did you come back? ”

"Heh, you can't get along, right? Can't find a job? I'll just say, this kid from the Fang family is a good hand at reading, but he works part-time, and he is probably not as good as the kid in my family, don't you think he's back? ”

……

Hearing these discussions, as well as those strange eyes, Fang Ming couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, which one of the people in the village didn't have a smile on his face when he saw him before? It's been completely different since I dropped out of school, and even such a discussion has been said so loudly as if it was specifically for myself.

The reality of the people in the countryside is that after Fang Ming dropped out of school, he understood that the college students of the Fang family flew away, and from then on there was no difference between himself and these "mud legs" who faced the loess all day long and turned their backs to the sky - it was even inferior, for example, Fang Ming was able to grow a good land? Where is Fang Zhonghua willing to let his precious son go to the ground?

Fang Ming quickened his pace and walked home, he had nothing to worry about with these people.

As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the village, Fang Ming met the sixth uncle in the village, Dashi Village is a village with miscellaneous surnames, not all surnamed Fang, and the sixth uncle's name is Zhao Huo, just like his name, his temperament is as hot as fire, of course, he was kicked out of the army because of a fight in the special forces, but he was also willing to be mediocre when he returned to the village, except for training the young men in the village to box, there is not much else, he is still a single person in his forties, there is no way, he is too poor, What woman would want to marry a man who has eaten a meal but has not eaten the next?

Fang Ming's fists and kicks were learned from him, of course, Fang Ming felt that it was quite good, and there were even blue sprouts that were better than blue.

"Fang Ming, why are you back?"

Seeing Fang Ming, Zhao Huo was stunned for a moment, of course he knew the situation of the Fang family, and he regretted it for a long time when he heard that Fang Ming was going to drop out of school and go to work.

"Heh, come back and have a look."

As he spoke, Fang Ming opened the travel bag he was carrying back, took out a cigarette and threw it to Zhao Huo, saying, "The cigarette you brought back, you smoke." ”

Zhao Huo took the cigarette and looked at it, and immediately shouted: "Yo, soft China!" It's a good cigarette, and it costs sixty or seventy-one packs. ”

The income in Dashi Village is very low, and although there are many smokers, no one wants to spend money on such good cigarettes.

"It seems that you kid is doing well, but haven't you been out for less than a month? How can you mix up enough to dare to smoke such a cigarette? ”

Fang Ming is now wealthy, although Soft China is not cheap, but this time he came back and bought five in one go.

"It's okay."

"Fang Ming, tell me honestly, where did you get your money?"

Zhao Huo squinted, and a cold light like a poisonous snake appeared in his eyes, "If I let me know that you have gone the evil way, I will want your life." ”

Fang Ming was taught by himself, of course Zhao Huo understood how powerful this young man who was much younger than himself was, if he really followed the evil path, he would definitely be a good hand.

Fang Ming was stunned for a moment, knowing that Zhao Huo had misunderstood himself, thinking that his money was coming from the wrong way, but he also understood that Zhao Huo's suspicions were not unreasonable, except for taking the wrong path, how could ordinary people afford to smoke such a cigarette in such a short period of time?

He has always been full of respect for Zhao Huo Fangming, because the other party taught him a lot of things, so he naturally would not hide it from him, and said: "Sixth uncle, don't worry, my money comes from the right place, I am now working in an antique store, I picked up a few leaks, and I made a lot of money." ”

"Oh, I see, well, I don't know if it's true, but at least this explanation is acceptable."

Zhao Huo took apart the cigarette, took out one and lit it, and took a hard puff, he forgot how many years he hadn't smoked such a good cigarette - when he was in the army, he and his comrades smoked it a lot, but since he returned to the village, he has never smoked it again.

"Cool! Good smoke is different! ”

"Sixth uncle, I'll go to you for a drink in the evening, I'll go home and have a look first."

Fang Ming waved his hand, and then strode towards his house, now he was definitely like an arrow.

Fang Ming's home is on a small hillside at the end of the village, there is a fish pond in front of it, in front of the fish pond is a small paddy field, at this time there are some ducks playing on the water, and in the grass on the small hillside there is a hen with a flock of chicks squeaking around, in front of the hen chick is a proud big rooster, it is taking square steps at all times, as if patrolling its territory.

Standing at the door of the house, Fang Ming's heart couldn't help but beat faster, not long after leaving home, he felt as if he had been away for a century, so that he had a feeling of being closer to home.

Taking a deep breath, Fang Ming reached out and pushed open the hidden door.

"Brother, you're back!"

As soon as the door opened, a crisp child's voice screamed, and a little girl pounced like a flower butterfly.

Fang Ming immediately threw the travel bag to the ground, then squatted down to hold the little girl who rushed over in his arms, and then raised it high above his head and spun it.

"Giggle~~~"

A string of silver bell-like sounds resounded throughout the courtyard, and this little girl was Fang Ming's sister Fang Zilan.

"Brother!"

Fang Ming looked back and found a half-sized man with a large bundle of firewood standing outside the door, looking at him with a look of surprise.

Putting down his sister, Fang Ming walked in front of his younger brother Fang Haozheng and reached out to take the firewood off his back, then slapped him on the back of the head, and said, "This firewood has to be a hundred and ten catties, what are you carrying back at one time?" ”

The family is still burning firewood, Fang Haozheng must have gone up the mountain to collect firewood, the children of poor families have long been in charge, and this kind of work has to be done since childhood.

Fang Haozheng laughed "hehe", then puffed up the muscles in his arms and said, "Brother, look at my muscles, one hundred and ten catties is nothing." ”

Fang Haozheng also inherited the good genes of the Fang family, although he was still young, he also had a good body, and he was as strong as a calf at a young age.

"Then you have to pay attention to one point, your body has not developed yet, this is not strong."

The bustle in the courtyard alarmed Luo Cui in the house, she walked out quickly and was immediately pleasantly surprised when she saw Fang Ming, "Why are you back?" ”

The mother of the child was worried that although Fang Ming had not been away from home for a few days, as a mother, she was so worried that she couldn't sleep for a few nights.

"Mom, I'll come back and take a look."

"It's good to be back! It's good to be back! ”

Luo Cui walked over, stretched out his hand and pinched Fang Ming's arm a few times, before finally relieving himself and said, "Okay, it's okay if you're not thin, it's good if you're not thin!" ”

"Mom, where did Dad go?"

didn't see his father Fang Zhonghua, Fang Ming felt a little strange, because he was sick, so he should be recuperating at home.

Luo Cui showed a melancholy in her eyes, her husband has always been the pillar of the family, and the family has lost income after this illness, and more importantly, he thinks that he has burdened his son, otherwise how could his son drop out of school and go to work, so he has become more and more silent during this time, many times he doesn't say a word for a few days, not only that, but he often hides by the small river behind the hillside in a daze, and he doesn't know what he is thinking.

"Brother, Dad must be basking in the sun by the river, I'll take you to him."

Fang Ming was stunned for a moment, and immediately knew that his father was definitely not basking in the sun, and after thinking for a while, he said to his sister: "Good, play here with the second brother for a while, and the brother brought you candy back." ”

Saying that, Fang Ming took out the candy and handed it to Fang Zilan, Fang Zilan was still young after all, and he was at a time when he didn't know what it was like to be a teenager, after seeing the sugar, his eyes couldn't turn anymore, and after snatching it, he didn't care about Fang Ming anymore.

"Mom, brother, I'll go see Dad."

"Go ahead."

Luo Cui nodded.

Fang Ming thought for a moment, took out a cigarette and walked out.

"Mom, my brother is rich!"

Fang Haozheng's eyes were sharp, and he recognized the cigarette Fang Ming was holding in his hand at a glance, rushed to the travel bag and took out three more for a while, and said to Luo Cui in a continuous voice: "Mom, this kind of cigarette is called Zhonghua, dozens of yuan a pack, how can my brother have the money to buy this kind of cigarette." ”

"Smack!"

Luo Cui slapped Fang Haozheng's head and said, "What do you say, do you know what kind of smoke this is?" ”

Covering the back of his head, Fang Haozheng said: "Of course I recognize this, the damn fat man in the class a few days ago took one, it stinks very much, and said that it was stolen from his father's pocket, and one piece costs 3 yuan!" Mom, you see, this is a Chinese character, this is a Chinese character, and this cigarette is a Chinese cigarette, exactly the same as what I saw that day! ”

"Huh? Is this cigarette so expensive? ”

Fang Zhonghua also smoked, but it was all two yuan a pack, and now when he heard that a pack cost dozens of yuan and a pack cost three yuan, Su Cui was immediately startled.

"Can't be wrong! This cigarette is so expensive! It seems that my brother is making a lot of money when he goes out this time! ”

When Luo Cui heard this, her face showed a sense of worry, making money is a good thing, but it has to be earned properly, and his son can make a lot of money in a few days after he goes out? Where in the world is such a good thing?
