The black and white letters on the IOU said that the 50,000 yuan owed to Liu Ningqing's family to build a house was written.

The IOU was revised many times, and less than 20,000 yuan was paid one after another, and there were more than 30,000 left.

For a farmer in a mountainous area who farms for a living, 30,000 yuan is a total income for four or five years.

Moreover, Aunt Liu Ningqing's family can spend more than 100,000 bride prices and the money to buy a house in the county, but they can bear to see Liu Ningqing's family in such a difficult situation, and they have not repaid the arrears for a long time.

If this breath doesn't come out, Xu Zhimu won't be able to sleep himself.

"You know this, right?" Xu Zhimu took the IOU and shook it in front of her eyes.

Of course, the aunt remembered that the signature on it was still signed by her and her husband at that time.

"This..."The aunt's expression changed, and she already felt that something was wrong.

When the grandparents saw the yellowed IOU, they didn't expect Xu Zhimu to take it out at this time.

"Just remember, it says that you still owe the balance of 35,000 yuan, and the minimum arrears date has passed for five years, and according to the agreement, you will not only have to pay the principal, but also pay a certain amount of interest."

Xu Zhimu looked at the numbers on the IOU and looked at her with a smile: "We have to settle this account first, right?" ”

The aunt's expression was dull on her face, and she was a little at a loss and didn't know what to say.

"This, how long has it been, I'm almost forgetting about it......"

"You noble people forget many things, but we ordinary people dare not forget."

Xu Zhimu held the contract in one hand and the IOU in the other, and then pulled out a few more copies of the wad of money in his hand.

"Since the money is counted today, let's calculate it together, the transfer money is a total of 110,000, and the remaining 75,000 after deducting the arrears, as for the interest, for the sake of our relatives, it should be our share of the money for your family."

Xu Zhimu said neatly, and counted nearly half of the 110,000 cash before handing the rest to her.

The aunt looked at the pile of cash that was still thick just now, and now half of it has been siphoned off, as if it was money that already belonged to her, and it was snatched from her wallet at this moment.

"No, how can you be like this, 110,000 when you say yes, how can you say that you will turn your face?"

The little aunt was also anxious suddenly, and her loud voice suddenly came out again.

Xu Zhimu's smile remained unchanged, and he also said strangely: "This is all in black and white, how can it be said that it is a face-turner?" ”

"You..." The aunt was choked, looking at the signature on the IOU, her eyes suddenly moved: "The one who signed it is my father-in-law, if you want money, go to him to find it, what does it have to do with me, what I want today is the money for the house, no less!" ”

The aunt didn't pretend anymore, and tore her face directly to get all the money back.

As soon as these words came out, it made Liu Ningqing's grandfather's old face stunned, and then, the old man, who had always been silent and honest, was also a little emotional at the moment.

"You, what are you talking about!"

My aunt's father-in-law, who is my grandfather's younger brother, had passed away because of illness many years ago.

How to say that he is also a brother, and he was able to get more than 10,000 yuan for building a house, and it was all given by his own brother.

Later, when he fell ill, the two families directly cut off contact.

This sentence is simply a great rebellion.

Grandpa's angry hands were a little trembling.

The aunt is also very spicy: "You are the first to turn over the bad accounts here, how much money you said, I won't sell it if it is less, it is better to sell it to someone else!" ”

She calculated, how could this old mansion be transferred for more than 80,000 yuan, but she still put in a small 10,000 yuan back and forth, so she naturally refused to sell it.

Liu Ningqing frowned, but Xu Zhimu didn't say anything, just glanced at the female village chief on the side.

The female village chief also knows that there are too many things in the village that can cause a farce for tens of thousands of yuan.

Sometimes because of the ownership of the two green onions in front of the door, the head can be broken and the blood flows.

So she was already handy at dealing with these things, and she said coldly at the moment: "The land in the village is collectively owned, if I don't sign, no one will think of going out!" ”

The arrogance of the aunt was suddenly poured with a bucket of cold water, and these people in the village are basically bullying the weak and afraid of the hard.

After all, the only leader they can get in touch with in this life is the village chief.

No one dares to offend the village chief.

And obviously, the village chief is here to help support.

The aunt's eyes looked at the crowd, and she knew that if she didn't transfer the house today.

I'm afraid no one will dare to buy it in the future, and it's worthless to keep it in my own hands now.

Her eyes rolled, and she suddenly began to sell miserably again, and when she came to her grandparents, she squeezed out a few tears.

"Uncle, aunt... I know, we shouldn't have done it before, but at that time, the family had no money, and now Xiao Ke is getting married, this 70,000 yuan is really not enough, after all, he is also surnamed Liu, so he can't watch him beat the single......"

The two old men were also angry by her performance, but after all, they were his brother's own grandson, and he had a complicated heart, so he just closed his eyes and sighed.

"Qingqing, you can help your aunt say something, do you remember, I used to send you snacks to eat......"

The woman began to play the emotional card around, Liu Ningqing's eyes lowered, but she moved her steps closer to Xu Zhimu and didn't say a word.

She had no choice, and finally looked at Xu Zhimu again.

"Okay, didn't you say you still have 80,000 yuan? I can give you five thousand more. ”

Xu Zhimu opened his mouth and said.

The woman's expression is a little better, and the most that this old house can sell is 80,000 yuan.

If you can get it, it's not a loss.

But Xu Zhimu took out another contract and handed it to her.

She froze for a moment, looking at the contents.

"I heard that you still have five acres of land in the village, and I count you as one thousand yuan per acre, anyway, you can't plant the land when you get to the site, so it's better to transfer it together."

Xu Zhimu smiled and spoke.

Listening to the aunt, her eyes widened again, she always felt that she seemed to be a little bit of a trap today.

However, the land in this mountain is not flat, unless you grow it yourself, or no one wants to come even if it is a contract fee of 100 yuan a year.

And when she goes to the county seat in the future, she naturally can't plant the land, and she will put it away, so it is better to exchange it for some money.

She gritted her teeth and finally nodded: "Okay, I'll sign!" ”

After the contract was signed, Xu Zhimu looked at the red handprint and signature on it, and Xu Zhimu handed over 80,000 yuan to her.

She took the money, and in the end she didn't even say hello and left directly.

The female village chief looked at this scene, and also smiled and said: "Okay, from now on, this house is also your household, just go to the village to register the procedures when you have time." ”

"Thank you......"

The two old men were very excited and thanked the female village chief vigorously.

"Don't thank me, your family has a good son-in-law."

The female village chief smiled at Xu Zhimu: "Okay, I won't bother you, Boss Xu will go to my house to drink tea when he is free and leave first." ”

"Definitely."

Xu Zhimu also smiled and waved his hand,

"Child, it's really bothering you again, we don't know how to thank you, I didn't expect that I would be able to return to this place when I am old......"

The grandparents supported each other, looking at this old ancestral house, and the old tears almost flowed out.

"Grandpa, you're out of sight when you say this, after all, we're all a family."

Xu Zhimu took Liu Ningqing's little hand, and his eyes also looked at this ancestral house, many places are going to be rebuilt, but the area is very large.

"I'll ask people to design it and build this place into a Chinese-style courtyard villa, so that when Qingqing and I have children in the future, we can come to escape the heat in the summer."

Xu Zhimu looked sideways at Liu Ningqing, whose eyes were hazy and happy at the moment.

Liu Ningqing's cheeks were flushed, but at this moment, she really wanted to hurry... Give birth to a little baby.

The grandparents couldn't help but choke up and laugh, Xiao Wu was still young, and they probably couldn't see the day when their grandson got married.

But if you can see the children who are clear, their life will be considered complete.

Grandpa and grandma walked around the old mansion and packed up some things.

Later, I heard from my grandmother that my grandfather was alone in his parents' bedroom, sitting alone on the edge of the decayed bed and smoking quietly for a long time.

It was late in the morning and I walked home.

Night falls.

Grandpa and Xu Zhimu drank a lot of wine together today, and grandma didn't stop him this time.

The old man has been honest and honest all his life, and he hasn't even quarreled a few times.

But it doesn't mean that the old man doesn't have his own thoughts in his heart, just for the sake of his family, they can only swallow their anger.

The return of the old mansion is no less than the four joyful events in life in the hearts of the elderly.

Grandpa still drank too much wine, and was helped by Xu Zhimu to go to bed to rest.

Xu Zhimu was also full of alcohol and was ready to take a bath.

The bathroom at home has also been redecorated by Xu Zhimu, and a large bathtub has been specially made, anyway, the place in the hometown can be built by yourself.

A bathroom is forty or fifty square meters, and it is estimated that villas are not willing to be so extravagant in the city.

Xu Zhimu had just put the water in place and entered the bathtub comfortably, when suddenly the bathroom door was pushed open.

Smoky, the slender figure appeared at the door of the bathroom.

"Qingqing?"

Xu Zhimu opened his mouth and shouted.

At the door, Liu Ningqing was holding a change of pajamas and a bath towel in her hand, her pretty face was flushed, and she was wearing a pair of slippers under her feet.

The white and tender little feet loom in the water vapor.

This is still the first time Liu Ningqing came to the bathroom when she was in her hometown...... Raid?

Liu Ningqing blushed, closed the door of the bathroom door, and walked over step by step, the mist of the bathroom steaming in the air.

Hanging on the skin, it looks extraordinarily supple and smooth.

"Qingqing, didn't you wash it just now?" Xu Zhimu's eyes looked up and down her figure.

Although he has been getting along day and night for two years, every time he looks at it, Xu Zhimu gets carried away and becomes animalistic.

"I'll come... Rub your back. ”

Liu Ningqing's voice was a little shy, but when she remembered that the two of them were already engaged, it was quite normal for husband and wife to say such things.

Xu Zhimu looked at her beautiful red cheeks, this easily shy girl must have made up her mind.

Xu Zhimu suddenly wanted to tease her.

"No need, you've been running for a day today, let's go back and rest first."

Liu Ningqing suddenly hesitated: "I, I'm not tired..."

"But wouldn't it be embarrassing if the family saw it?"

Xu Zhimu showed a little expression of embarrassment again, Liu Ningqing bit her white teeth, she still saw the cunning that flashed in Xu Zhimu's eyes.

She blushed, clenched her fists and slapped Xu Zhimu's shoulder twice: "Badass! ”

"Hehe, then I won't pretend, you forced me to be beastly!"

……

Liu Ningqing changed into a bathrobe, and then gently entered the bathtub, took the foaming towel, and gently rubbed it on Xu Zhimu's back.

Xu Zhimu's back feels a little wider than it was two years ago, and now he looks like a real big man.

The slightly bulging muscle lines are still very lethal to the girl.

Soft little hands, smooth foam, and a heated bathtub made Xu Zhimu lie comfortably on the edge of the bathtub, squinting happily.

Presumably, this is how the ancient emperors were treated.

"Chiki." Liu Ningqing's voice was as gentle as water.

"Huh?"

"Thank you, everyone is really happy today, I haven't seen my grandparents so happy for a long time."

"But today, I also offended your aunt, do you blame me?"

Xu Zhimu asked her with a smile.

Liu Ningqing, who has always been gentle and seems to have no temper, thinks of today's events at this moment, and the corners of her mouth are slightly upturned.

She snorted.

"I'm not so unreasonable, the things she used to do...... She deserves it now. ”

Liu Ningqing rarely has such an opinion on a person, looking at her with a little revenge and pride.

Xu Zhimu thinks that this is what she really should be.

"But what do you want to do with those five acres of land in the end?"

Liu Ningqing didn't understand why she suddenly wanted to take her land in the end.

"Didn't I say it before, when my funds are sufficient, I will turn around and invest in some real business, the hillside is still very suitable for planting fruit trees, and I plan to take back all the land here in the future, I am worried that your little aunt will sit on the ground and raise the price, so I will simply collect it."

Xu Zhimu explained, Liu Ningqing nodded thoughtfully, and then remembered something, his eyes were shining: "Then, you want to build roads for the village... In fact, it is to plant fruit trees in the future and make transportation easier, right? ”

Xu Zhimu turned around, looked at Liu Ning's clear and bright eyes, and touched her cheek with relief.

"It's so smart, it's not my wife! It seems that you also have the potential to become a generation of profiteers in the future. ”

Xu Zhimu laughed, in fact, Liu Ningqing has always been very smart, and she used to look stupid, just because she didn't have enough contact experience.

Now that I've been following myself for so long, my brain is spinning faster and faster.

"You're a profiteer... One by one. Liu Ningqing patted him twice on the back, and finally gently stuck to his back, hugging him and snuggling together.

"But thank you, if it weren't for you, maybe my grandfather would have to leave this regret for the rest of his life."

"How many times have I said it......"

"I know, don't say thank you. But I just want to say it. ”

Liu Ningqing interrupted his words, with coquettishness in his tone.

Xu Zhimu felt the delicacy of his back, and it was crispy in his heart, forget it.

After going back for a while, it would be good to punish her severely.

Xu Zhimu quietly warmed up with her for a while, and looked sideways at Liu Ningqing's ruddy and shiny cheeks.

He took a slight breath.

"Qingqing, there is something I want to tell you."

Liu Ningqing also opened her bright and moist eyes, and a little emotion flashed in her gentle eyes.

Her voice was still gentle.

"Yes, about Xiaomi?"

Come on, there's a high probability that there will be a chapter tonight, later.

Thanks for the support.
