Qin Qi knew that Qin Youliang would definitely not be able to turn this corner for a while.

After all, Qin Youliang had been cautious for the first half of his life, and he couldn't imagine how much the world would change in the future.

If it weren't for Qin Qi's rebirth, the Qin family would never dare to stand on the cusp of the wind and become the group of people who "support the bold".

But since Qin Qi has been reborn, he must no longer let the Qin family continue to follow the conservative old path.

This mine is bankrupt and broken!

In his previous life, Qin Youliang chose to go to work in the mine in a more remote place, but when he went to the mine there, he suffered from skin diseases, and his legs and feet would itch and suffer from pain every day.

But even so, Qin Youliang still didn't give up the job.

Later, the salary over there rose to 600 yuan a month, and he felt quite good.

As a result, many people in the village began to laugh at Qin Youliang when they found out, "Even if you don't let me work, just ride a bicycle for two hours and get 20 yuan for nothing, I won't go!" ”

Qin Youliang was stunned to withstand the ridicule of others and worked until the days before he fell ill and died.

In this life, I can't say anything that my father will choose to go to work in the mine over there.

"Dad, you won't be able to go to work this month anyway, why don't we make a bet, if you can earn your salary for a year in the next month, we won't go to the mine over there to work, okay?"

"How is it possible, to earn 2 or 3,000 yuan a month, I don't think there is any other way than to rob the bank." Qin Youliang shook his head vigorously.

"Anyway, you're idle, so let's challenge it!" Qin Qi cheered up his father.

Although Qin Youliang said that it was impossible, he was actually moved.

He sold corn a few times, and saw his daughter selling peaches and ice cream to earn a pile of thick bills, and his heart was already eager to try, but it was still difficult for him to accept that he would lose his status as a worker in the future.

"Well, I'll try it then."

"By the way, Dad, you said before that you were going to do farming for us, what is happening now?" Qin Qi suddenly thought of another key question.

In the seventies and eighties of the last century, because of the huge difference in identity between urban and rural areas, many rural people handled the transformation of agriculture into non-agricultural affairs, which was quite a glorious thing for their ancestors, after all, with a non-agricultural identity, they could recruit workers into factories and public institutions in the city.

This trend was still in the ascendant until the early 90s, and even many people had to spend tens of thousands of yuan to buy this non-agricultural household registration, and then the money needed to handle the agricultural conversion to non-agricultural was reduced year by year.

But many people haven't turned the corner and are still doing it.

If Qin Youliang didn't move to the mining area, it would actually be okay, and their family could even go to the mining area to live in a family dormitory, go to a family school, and even buy a cheap house.

But when the mining area is moved to a remote area, these invisible benefits are discounted, the teachers there are not as good as here, there is no investment value in buying a house, and most importantly, the farmland in the names of Wang Meilan and her children will be taken back, which is really worth the loss.

"It's not done yet, it's almost done, but the mine here is bankrupt, and the matter is delayed, and I may have to move over there and continue to do it." Qin Youliang said dejectedly.

"Dad, or our family won't do this farming to non-farming, if we really do it, we will take back all the land, we can't all go to live in the mine over there, the rural household registration is worth having!"

Qin Youliang couldn't turn this corner for a while, after all, many rural people were still doing this at that time.

"Two years ago, your second uncle also gave your second aunt and Qin Dayu the conversion of agriculture to non-farming, I still thought that even in order to do a good job of the few of you to do a good job, I would have to go to the mine over there anyway!"

Qin Qi was also dumbfounded, she couldn't say it because she knew what would happen in the next twenty years!

Oh, it's too difficult, Qin Qi wants to cry without tears.

Especially Qin Youliang also moved out of the second uncle, who was the best and most successful in the house, as an example, how can this be refuted!

Qin Qi pondered for a long time, and finally thought of Qin Youliang's biggest weakness, he liked the land.

"Dad, I want to ask you, why have you been a worker for 20 years, and you have been living in this village and still have to farm? I think that many working families in our village have moved out and no longer farmed. ”

Qin Youliang replied, "Hehe, this one, it's hard to say, I like farming!" ”

"That's right, that's it, we can't farm after we turn farming into non-farming, you must scratch your heart and liver and feel uncomfortable."

Qin Youliang coughed a few times in embarrassment, "I'm definitely a little uncomfortable, I'm not thinking about a few of you going to school or something, it may help you find a job in the future, I definitely can't give up this place." ”

Qin Qi knew that Qin Youliang was reluctant, after all, in his previous life, he had never given up farming in his life, even if there was no land at home, he continued to plant barren mountainous land that others didn't want, and also opened up wasteland.

"That's it, I don't think we should do agriculture anymore, my second uncle is his business, and our family has our situation."

Qin Youliang heard the girl say this, a big stone in his heart fell to the ground, he has indeed been struggling with this, although he wants the children to become city people, but he really doesn't want to give up the land, he has been enduring it.

"Well, I'll think about it again, Qiqi, thank you, Dad."

Qin Youliang felt that his daughter had really grown up, and he could discuss with him the big and small things in the family, as well as his own thoughts, and talked for a long time, although there was no final conclusion, but Qin Youliang felt a lot more comfortable.

There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and the willows and flowers are bright and another village, no matter how difficult the road ahead, as long as the family members are twisted into a rope, no matter how big the difficulty is, it will not knock people down.

Qin Youliang thought about the bet he told his daughter, and he was thinking about what to do with Wang Meilan when he was lying in bed at night.

"I see that our five pepper trees have been red for the past few days, why don't we pick them off and sell them?"

The five pepper trees planted on the land at home are still the pepper seedlings that Wang Deshan specially moved from the mountains when Qin Youliang and Wang Meilan first got married.

This pepper tree variety is very good, but it grows slowly, three years to set fruit, at the beginning of a tree can also dry a pound of dried pepper, now the family of the pepper trees have grown for 18 years, can pick up a lot of pepper every year.

But in previous years, when this pepper was picked, Wang Meilan dried it and gave it to others to eat.

first distributed it to the in-laws, then the second and third families, Qin Youfang's family, and even the second and third mothers-in-law's mother-in-law also ate his family's peppercorns every year.

Especially the second child has to take more than a dozen catties every year, saying that he wants to make dots up and down, and give gifts to the leader or something.

Therefore, in previous years, this pepper did not think about selling it at all.

"Well, that's a good idea, we haven't sold it in previous years, and I know this fresh pepper is in demand."

"Okay, let's pick it tomorrow morning!"

Early the next morning, Qin Youliang and Wang Meilan set off before dawn. This picking pepper is a particularly laborious thing, the pepper is full of thorns, and you will prick your fingers if you are not careful.

Fortunately, Qin Youliang is a good hand at handling crops, and when the season comes, he prunes the peppercorns, and several pepper trees grow very thinly, otherwise they should be covered with thorns when they are picked in the middle of the trees.

There were fewer mosquitoes in the morning, and both of them wore long-sleeved clothes, otherwise when it was almost noon, the mosquitoes would have to eat the two of them.

The two picked for more than two hours before going home for breakfast, Qin Qi had already made breakfast at home, and when he learned that the two of them were going to pick peppercorns and plan to sell them, Qin Qi didn't expect his father to start acting so soon.

Wang Meilan spread the peppercorns in the largest dustpan in the house and dried them to the sunny place under the eaves.

"This year's peppercorns are really good, you see it's big and red, and the taste is enough!" Wang Meilan looked delighted.

Qin Xiaomei took the pepper and sniffed it under her nose, "It really smells good, why does it taste so bad!" ”

Qin Shu scratched the tip of the little sister's nose, "But when you wrap it in the dumplings, I see that you eat very deliciously!" ”

Qin Xiaomei nodded, "It's true, it's weird!" ”

Qin Qi looked at it and spent the morning only picking up a pound or two, it was indeed a tiring job.

"Dad, don't go to the big market to sell this peppercorn, we must take such a good thing to the city to sell."

"Do you need to go that far to the city? I think our collection has been very popular in previous years. Qin Youliang said.

Qin Qi twisted the peppercorns and smelled the fragrance, and said, "It's better in the city, the price in the city and the market are at least doubled, and we don't want to sell them to the farmers' market, our things are so good, we still have to sell them to people who know the goods, I'll call Grandpa Wang, maybe he can help us think of a way." ”

Qin Qi thought that although Xiao Zhuo said that Jia Ping'er had regretted it, he would not do business with his family for the time being. Anyway, Dad has time now, so he can go to the city to find a better seller and sell at a higher price.

"Okay, I'm out anyway, I'll go to the city if I go to the city!" Qin Youliang planned to give himself a month to break the kettle and work hard, but if he couldn't do it, he would go to the mine again.

Qin Shu and Qin Xiaomei heard that Qin Youliang and Wang Meilan were going to pick peppercorns in a while, and the two of them said that they would pick them together.

Wang Meilan smiled and touched Qin Shu's pigtails for her little sister, "Hey, other people's babies can't catch up on the ground, you two are rushing to go, how can I have such a good girl as you!" ”

Qin Xiaomei smiled shyly, "Because my mother is a good mother!" ”

Qin Shu rolled his eyes beside him, the little sister's little mouth was really a coincidence, why couldn't she say such a sensual thing.

After breakfast, Qin Qi went to the agency point, and Qin Youliang led the family to pick peppercorns.

The weather was not yet hot, and many people came to the field.

Wang Meilan asked Qin Shu and Xiaomei to only pick them on the periphery, after all, this pepper thorn is not a joke.

Qin Youliang squeezed inside and picked it up, he wore a thick tweed dress, and after a while, he was so hot that he sweated.

"Youliang, you didn't go to work today, why did you come here early in the morning to pick peppercorns? Why didn't Qin Qi Nan Nizi come? "I don't know when, Sun came to the ground.

Qin Youliang came out of the pepper bushes, frowned and said, "The mine is going bankrupt, and it's a holiday recently!" ”

Sun's eyes widened, "What? Mine bankruptcy? What are you going to do when you're gone? Come back and be an old farmer! You see you were fooling around a while ago, and now you're going to lose your job, how will you live in the future! The third child has been arrested and hasn't come back yet, you have no work to do again, what will I do with your father in the future! ”

Sun is really a person with a burst of negative energy, and as soon as he comes, he yells at Qin Youliang and has a headache.

"Mother, don't say a few words, it makes my head hurt."

Sun's mouth pursed, "Okay, I won't talk about you!" Don't forget to give me a pound of peppercorns when they're sunburned, and your sister also leaves a pound, the leftovers from last year are not delicious now, and I've been waiting for this peppercorns to come down for a long time. ”

Qin Youliang has the heart to sell peppercorns, and the old lady will book two catties in one go, so how much effort does it take. "Mother, I see that you don't have anything to do for a day, you just pick it yourself, you can eat as much as you want, I plan to sell it this year, I don't have time to pick so much for you!"

Sun's face twisted into a bitter melon look, "What are you doing?" I don't go to work anymore, I haven't had time to get it for me, what are you thinking about doing that hard work, your mother is not worth being filial to you, and you take it out to sell, just your stuffy melon, go to the set and open your mouth! ”

Qin Youliang's face darkened, "It's my business whether I sell it or not, anyway, if any of you want to eat peppercorns, you can pick them yourself, I won't serve you this year, I've been serving you for many years, and I don't have any points!" ”

Sun took off his shoes and threw them towards Qin Youliang, "What's the matter, I haven't expected you to support the elderly, and I haven't asked you to collect pension money from each family, just eat a few peppercorns from you, and you still have a fan!" ”

As a result, Qin Youliang dodged, and the shoes flew into the middle of the pepper tree.

Qin Youliang stood silent, Sun was anxious, reached out and took off his other shoe and threw it over, "Why don't you hurry up and pick up my shoes, what are you doing standing there!" ”

As a result, Sun's other shoe was also hung in the middle of the pepper tree.

Qin Shu and Xiaomei looked at their shoes and entered the bushes, and they all snickered beside them.

Sun Shi glanced at the two of them fiercely, "Two people who lose money, and dare to laugh at your grandmother, Wang Meilan, hurry up and roll over to me!" ”

Wang Meilan was picking at a pepper tree in the farthest distance, she wanted to pretend to be deaf and dumb, pretending not to see everything that happened here, but in the end she couldn't hide, she walked over slowly.

"Mother, why do you have time to go uphill today?"

Sun glanced at Wang Meilan, "I went uphill to find your father, your father drank a few mouthfuls of cat urine in the morning, and then staggered up the mountain, quickly took out my shoes, and your father planted it in a ditch!" ”

Qin Youliang hated his father for drinking the most in his life, but he didn't expect to get drunk early in the morning, so he took Wang Meilan and the child to pick peppercorns in the distance, leaving the old lady there.

"Mother, the shoes are you going to throw away, we are very busy, we have to take you in and get them yourself!"

The Sun family is really convinced, how can this Qin Youliang, who was obedient in the past, start to learn to resist, and be more ruthless than anyone else, he really underestimated him before!

Qin Qi went to the agency point and called the old man Wang Zhongyi, who left her a landline at home.

"Qin Qi, why haven't you contacted me for so long, I thought you forgot about the old man!" Qin Qi heard the old man over there laugh heartily.
