Chapter 38: Suspicion

"Really?" Zhou Haihua was suspicious, there were villagers on the island who used to take the shrimp and crabs they caught to sell, but they were caught, and they were squatting at the police station and reformed through labor, so it was a lot of tossing, and it was difficult to find a daughter-in-law later.

"Of course it's true." Jiang Zhenzhen took the scrambled tomatoes and eggs out of the pot and said, "Our island is relatively closed, and a lot of news will take a long time to reach here, not to mention that some small business is allowed. ”

Zhou Haihua was shocked: "Really? ”

"Of course it's true, what's that called?" Jiang Zhenzhen thought for a while and said, "Oh yes, it's called the household production contract system, which is to divide the land in the village equally among each family according to the population of each family. I heard that after some villages have finished dividing the land, the villagers have served the land more carefully, and the production has increased a lot! ”

Zhou Haihua was looking forward to it, but when she heard that it was divided according to the population, she was anxious: "Then how many acres of land can our family divide?" "There are no two men in the family, and there are only four people left, and if one person is divided into one acre of land, then it will be four acres of land. Four acres of land is estimated to be enough for their family of four not to starve to death.

Moreover, although there is Jiang Zhenzhen as a laborer in the family now, when her daughter gets married in the future and follows Xiang Jun to the city, can she really serve four acres of land with her body? She sighed, "If only your dad and your brother were still around." ”

"Oh Mom." Jiang Zhenzhen hugged Zhou Haihua's thin shoulders, "Don't worry about it, although my father and my brother are gone, there is still me in this family!" She paused, "Besides, I estimate that we will have to wait for two years on the island for the division of land, and after two years, maybe the policy will change again?" ”

Zhou Haihua thought about it, when she said that she would resume the college entrance examination in 73 years, it didn't take long to cancel it. She stopped thinking about these things, and instead talked to Jiang Zhenzhen about her grandparents' house.

"Why hasn't your grandfather been released from the police station yet?" It's been a few days, and Zhou Haihua is really worried, "Is it that Jiang Ergou didn't write a letter of understanding to your grandfather?" ”

"I guess so." Jiang Zhenzhen's tone was light.

Zhou Haihua frowned: "Didn't you already give him the money, why didn't he write a letter of understanding?" ”

"That's not giving money." Jiang Zhenzhen set up the small table in the courtyard and brought the freshly fried dishes to the table one by one, the weather is good today, which is suitable for eating in the courtyard.

"But recently, there have been rumors in the village that your grandmother has given the money to Jiang Ergou!" Zhou Haihua came out with dishes and chopsticks.

"Who passed it on? Did you see the money given to Jiang Ergou with your own eyes? Jiang Zhenzhen looked back at Zhou Haihua, gently pulled the corners of her mouth, showed a sneering smile, and said, "My grandmother's kind of person, do you think she will give money to Jiang Ergou so happily?" ”

"But that's your grandfather!" Although Zhou Haihua hates Qian Baoping very much, she thinks that no matter how bad Qian Baoping is, she will not abandon her husband who has been with her for decades, right?

"Who knows." Jiang Zhenzhen asked rhetorically, "If Jiang Ergou received the money, then why didn't he write a letter of understanding?" It can't be because Jiang Ergou kicked his nose in the face and asked for more money, right? If it is really so excessive, then it is impossible for my grandmother's house to have no movement in the past few days, and my eldest aunt, I am afraid that she would have scolded Jiang Ergou to her neighbors a long time ago. ”

In fact, Jiang Zhenzhen is not the only one who says this, most people in the village have such doubts - did Qian Baoping pay for it?
