Quancheng, located in the northwest of Anhui Province, is a very remote small county town, backed by the Quanhe River, hence the name. Don't look at the small county, but it is a well-known poor county in the country, if nothing else, just because this small county has a population of two million.

In recent years, the state has introduced a series of policies to help the poor and help the poor, leading those backward counties to get rich, and Quancheng under these policies, the enthusiasm of the people of the county has increased greatly, so that the poor counties that have been backward in the past have also built wide roads, and high-rise buildings have risen from the ground, which has added a lot of color to this small county.

Especially rural people, many people go out to work, make a lot of money, and after coming back, they don't build houses in the countryside, but buy buildings in the county, but those young men and women of school age, even more so, as long as you have a property in the county, countless girls will compete to marry you, and they won't care how much dowry you give.

This also makes it essential to talk about marriage in Quancheng.

Shenjiawan is a small village under Quancheng, the villagers are only fifty or sixty households, almost all of them have been farmers for generations, few people go out to work, but in recent years, it is popular to go out to work, and the young people in the village cannot stay idle at home, so they go outside to make money and see the world.

In front of Shenjiawan, there is a direct flow of the Quanhe River, named Anhe, where the Anhe River turns, and many people in the village are surnamed Shen, hence the name.

In Shenjiawan in April, the trees have stretched their branches and leaves, and the fields and roads are full of people who are working. Shen Wentao has planted a lot of vegetables in his own land, especially peppers, and has planted more than one acre, and is now fertilizing the field, and he is also counting on a good harvest in this field, and he can save some money when the time comes, and in the future, he will buy a house for Shen Yan in the county town and marry his daughter-in-law.

"You guys, grow up quickly, and then bear thick peppers, and it's not in vain that I serve you so carefully!" Shen Wentao used a hoe to pick up some soil next to the chili peppers, then sprinkled some fertilizer, and said with a smile.

He saw a report on TV that a plant is also an emotional thing, it can understand what you tell it, and as long as you keep talking to it, it will grow according to your ideas.

For this, Shen Wentao didn't know if it was true or not, but he was also willing to give it a try, say a few more words, and tired people, if he could grow better, his harvest would be good, if not, he would have nothing to lose.

"Hey, fourth, are you busy in the fields?" At this time, a woman dressed in floral clothes, who was on the ground, shouted at Shen Wentao.

Shen Wentao didn't raise his head, and when he heard the voice, he knew that this must be his sister-in-law who loves to chew her tongue and show off everywhere.

The sister-in-law's name is Zhao Qin, she is not tall, fat, with some freckles on her face, she was a girl in a nearby village when she was young, and later married his eldest brother and gave birth to a son.

However, unlike Shen Yan, his son Shen Hao has been naughty since he was a child, does not like to study, and left school before finishing junior high school. Later, he couldn't stay idle at home, and went out to work with the people in the village, and it was said that he was doing big work on the construction site, and he could earn three or four hundred a day.

Three or four hundred, in Shen Wentao's opinion, this is quite remarkable, rural people, rely on the land to eat, where can someone earn so much in a day, which also makes Shen Hao quickly become a celebrity in the nearby ten miles and eight villages, after all, few people can earn so much.

There are even many people who come to Shen Hao's house with gifts, asking him to bring his dolls and take them out to make a lot of money.

Shen Hao also enjoyed this kind of scenery, but everyone who came never refused, and gradually he himself formed a construction team, and he didn't go out anymore, and took the construction team in the county town to build buildings for others.

With money, Shen Hao didn't treat himself badly, he bought a Volkswagen, good guy, just a car, it cost no less than 200,000. 200,000 ah, where have anyone in the countryside seen so much money, if it is exchanged for cash, I am afraid that it can be smashed to death!

Even in the county seat, he also bought a large house of more than 100 square meters, worth five or six hundred thousand, in the eyes of rural people, he can't make so much money in his life!

Not only that, but I have money in my hands, and there are more people who come to propose marriage, each of whom is a big girl like a flower, who has just settled down her family affairs a few years ago, and plans to get married after a while.

"I said fourth, why don't you care about people?" Zhao Qin couldn't help but look unhappy when she saw Shen Wentao ignoring her, didn't her son be admitted to college? How can you drop it, and can you still eat it as food? This is the way of the world, the rich are the uncle, and the academic diploma is not enough for you to gain a foothold in this world, if you want to get ahead, don't eat people and dream.

Besides, she also heard her son say that today's college students don't say that they grab a lot of money, but they are everywhere, and they are not worth anything at all, and even some college students have just graduated, and their salary is probably only two or three thousand a month, living in a big city, they can't even support themselves, and they can still count on this salary to make a fortune to buy a house and marry a daughter-in-law, don't be a fool and dream.

"Hey, it turned out to be my sister-in-law, what kind of wind blew you here?" Shen Wentao saw that he couldn't hide, so he simply didn't hide, raised his head, and pretended not to hear it before.

"I said fourth, you can't earn 10,000 yuan a year by planting this pepper, what kind of stuff do you work hard to make, in my opinion, you might as well not farm, follow Xiaohao into the city, work on the construction site, for the sake of your uncle, give you two hundred wages a day, what do you think?" Zhao Qin said.

"Sister-in-law, I can't do things like that on the construction site, so you better ask another master!" Shen Wentao waved his hand and signaled that Zhao Qin could leave.

"Don't mind!" Zhao Qin didn't give up, "I said the fourth, even if you don't go, you can also let your Yanzi go, Xiaohao is Yanzi's brother, you can take good care of him when the time comes, now working in the city is not as good as before, college students are not as popular as before, if there is no relationship, you can't make money at all." ”

"You see that Xiaohao has only been out for three years, he wants a car and a car, he wants a house and a house, and he will get married soon, you look at your Yanzi again, he is still a freshman, and when he graduates, I don't know what the situation is, if he can't even find a job at that time, won't you have to support your old couple?"

Zhao Qin said bitterly, his eyebrows fluttered, and he couldn't praise his son in three sentences.

"Let me tell you something from the bottom of my heart, Xiao Hao is now the leader of a construction team, and there are dozens of workers under him, if we are not relatives, I won't tell you, and Xiao Hao takes care of Yanzi, maybe your family will be able to live upstairs in two years!"

"Sister-in-law, thank you for your kindness, Yanzi is doing things for the country now, and the future is naturally bright, so I won't bother you." Shen Wentao's face was gloomy, it could be said that he had no interest and couldn't make a lot of money, but when he said this, his son was unbearable, even with Shen Wentao's honest and kind character.

"Hehe, fourth, do you believe this?" Zhao Qin's eyes were full of contempt, "Yanzi is just a college student, and he is just a college student from the second college who is not in the stream, now there are so many high-achieving students at Tsinghua University and Peking University, and I haven't seen anyone have the opportunity to do things for the country, I think you are looking forward to Jackie Chan, you want to go crazy!" ”

Zhao Qin spoke without any mercy, on weekdays, others begged him to ask her to say two more good words in front of Shen Hao, so that she could take her son to make a lot of money, but today she took the initiative to take Shen Yan to work in the city. But he was strongly opposed by Shen Wentao, and he was really hot on the bench and cold on his ass, and he was really doing it too much.

"Whether it's crazy or not, I don't know, I just know that my son won't be weaker than anyone!" Shen Wentao glared angrily, very disgusted by Zhao Qin's high-minded appearance.

His son is indeed only a student of the second university, but he believes that his son is definitely not a thing in the pool, the certificate that the police officer showed him is absolutely real, and it can't be faked, then Shen Yan must be doing something for the country!

"Hmph, the dog bites Lu Dongbin, I don't know the hearts of good people, and there will be times when you regret it in the future." Zhao Qin stomped his feet and went back along the field road in a huff.

Watching Zhao Qin leave, Shen Wentao sighed, since Shen Yan was discharged from the hospital, he hadn't seen him for nearly half a year, and his son really broke his heart.

"Sister-in-law is here again?" Xu Ping put the lunch box in her hand on the ground, she saw Zhao Qin on the way just now, called her twice, and didn't pay attention to herself, I don't know what she was angry about.

"Hmm!" Shen Wentao wiped the sweat from his forehead, opened the lunch box, picked up the steamed buns and ate them.

"Why is she here?" Xu Ping asked.

"What else can I do? Come to show off, it's not that Shen Hao can make money, buy a house and a car, etc., and let our family Xiaoyan follow Shen Hao to the city to work. Shen Wentao said angrily, feeling quite an atmosphere in his heart.

"How could she do that? I'll go to her and talk to her! Xu Ping is not happy, her son, her mother's distress, how can she stand others saying this, if she was present, she would have quarreled with her a long time ago.

"Okay, let's go with her whatever she wants, it's not good for us to quarrel with her, let's think about it for Xiaoyan, don't have anyone to propose to our son in the future." Shen Wentao sighed and said.

"Hey! Teacher Yang is a good girl, and Nurse Wei is also good, if she can be a daughter-in-law, it would be great! Xu Ping couldn't help but think of the two fairy-like women she saw in the Second Courtyard of Ningcheng, if they were her daughters-in-law, she would be a hundred happy!

"What do you think, beautiful girls like them, even we can't afford the bride price, let alone buy them a house in Ningcheng, I have inquired, the housing prices in Ningcheng are expensive, and the general community also needs more than 10,000, and a set down, at least more than one million, even if we are demolished, we can't afford it!" Shen Wentao's face was full of sadness, how could he not know that those two were good girls, but his own family...

Ay!
