Chapter 208: Falling into the Well
"Don't worry, I'm measured. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" I looked at the little fox and said.
"That's good, the little fox believes that Brother Zijie didn't mean to yell at the little fox just now, so the little fox forgave Brother Zijie!" The little fox said seriously.
"Then thank you little fox-sama for ignoring the villain!" I rubbed the little fox's head and said with a smile.
Next, with the help of the raccoon, I cleaned the inside and out of the house and opened all the windows to let in the air from the outside.
After the inside of the house is cleaned, the next step is to take care of the surroundings of the house. Because no one has taken care of it for a long time, the house has been occupied by wild grass, and it is a little difficult to get down, and the wild grass is almost one person high, and it is completely submerged when you walk in it.
When I was in high school, I would come back and spray herbicides around during the holidays, which was slightly better, but now that I'm in college, no one at home cares.
I am now a little suspicious of the eye of the thief who came to my house to steal, and I know that there is no one living in my house now, so how can there be anything of value in it?
After finding a hoe at home, I began to shovel the grass hard, and after a while, I felt a sore back. Especially the hand that holds the hoe handle, because in school it is nothing more than writing, and now doing these rough jobs is actually grinding out blisters, which is really speechless.
Originally, the little fox wanted to use spells to help me solve these problems, but I didn't dare to agree, after all, there are still people watching here, and if these are seen, it will be troublesome. I didn't get my permission to use spells, and the little fox also wanted to use a hoe to shovel grass, so I naturally couldn't let the little fox do rough work, so I let her stand aside and talk to me.
After removing the grass in front of the door, the living room suddenly became much brighter, and then I worked hard to clear a path.
While shoveling the grass, I saw a few orange tree seedlings, which I thought were wild at first, but when I cleared the road, I realized that a vacant lot in front of the house was already full of orange trees!
This makes me a little puzzled, to know that the land in front of the house was exchanged by the old man with our family's land, so at least the old man should be informed of planting trees on it, but I have never heard about it from the old man.
It's taboo to plant trees so close to the house, and there are so many more!
Not only that, but in addition to the orange trees planted directly in front of the house, the left, right and back areas were not spared. And we used to have a grown orange tree in our house, and the oranges on it were big and sweet, but now it has been cut down, and a few new saplings have been planted instead.
So I called the old man and asked him for some information. After hearing about this, the old man was silent for a long time, and after a long breath, he said to me: "Zijie, you must fight for it!" Trees were planted in front of our house, not because my family is poor and others look down on me, so we can bully as much as we want.
At the beginning, I discussed with others to exchange a piece of our land for that vacant land, but last year the state issued a policy that planting fruit trees on these barren lands would be subsidized, and that person transferred the right to dispose of this land to his eldest brother, and his sister-in-law also took the opportunity to lose the corporal, and the lion opened his mouth and said that we would either exchange the best field with him, or give 10,000 yuan! The vacant land left by his demolition of the house, except for our family, no one else would definitely be willing to exchange the cultivated land, how could it be worth the price? They just want us to be on the land, so they're just trying to make it difficult for us!
Do you know why your mother and I are desperate to provide for you and your sister to go to school? Knowledge changes destiny! I don't have much hope in this life, so I just hope that you two brothers and sisters will have a bright future! It's just that your sister is so uncompetitive, it's really disappointing to me, and she only got so many points in the college entrance examination, which simply disgraced my face.
Fortunately, you are competitive enough to get admitted to a university! In the future, you must find a good job, and let those who look down on us be ashamed! ”
The old man was full of bitterness when he said this, thinking that when the old man was young, he was the first person in the village to work in other provinces, so at that time, our family's economic situation was relatively good in the village, so the old man provided a lot of help to those neighbors who were in difficulty, and later took them outside to find jobs.
Gradually, these people made a lot of money outside, and the old man was not in good health, and my sister and I were unguarded, and my mother had to guard us, so the money earned by the old man could hardly be used for expenses, and there would be no leftover at all.
In my generation, my sister and I were the only ones in the village who went to high school, and when we were studying, other people's children had already begun to earn money, so the gap between our family's economic situation and other people's was getting bigger and bigger.
Originally, those who were not very good in economic conditions began to build new houses, or went to the city to buy houses, and all of them were very decent! However, our family only has this house, which has been under repair for 15 years, and there are still traces of water stains on the walls. The grass around the house can drown people, and no one usually comes here!
This is an era of looking at money, only if you have money in your family, you can have status, and people will respect you. Therefore, it is not surprising that our family is despised by others, and it is not surprising that such a phenomenon has appeared.
"The faint green bricks, difficult to withstand ten years of wind and rain, overnight rain, and the moss marks on the four walls of the house. In a few words, rocks fell from the well in the neighborhood, and trees were planted at the east gate, only fighting for a cent.
The tiger fell in Pingyang, but was bullied by the field dogs, and the dragon swam in the shallows, but was actually played by the shrimp soldiers. The god torii mountain, a blockbuster, several years of cold windows, there will be a glorious day! ”
Seeing the scene at home, I couldn't help but sigh, there was really a feeling that the tiger was bullied by dogs in Pingyang, and the dragon was played by shrimp in shallow water!
"Alas......" I let out a long sigh, feeling a little depressed in my heart.
"Brother Zijie, what's wrong with you?" The little fox asked, puzzled.
"It's nothing, it's just a sigh in my heart, this person, sometimes it's really ......" I said a little speechless.
At this time, I suddenly regretted returning Sun Yuhai's 450,000 yuan, because if I took the 450,000 yuan and could go directly to the county seat to buy a house, then I would like to see what kind of face these people would face our family. Maybe at that time, no one will fall into the trap, but think of ways to put icing on the cake.
