Chapter 194: No Regrets

In the countryside, land is the lifeblood of the peasants, and in China's thousands of years of history, almost every change of dynasty revolves around the land, and every peasant movement, the most basic demand is all land.

In the hearts of the peasants, they almost decided that only when they had land could they not go hungry and would they not suffer poverty.

So when Hu Mingchen proposed to take that small piece of land in exchange for Hu Mingchen's family to cut down trees, Liu Chunhua and Hu Jianye's first reaction was to refuse.

When the family was separated, in order to share a little more land, there was no less fight for a red face and a thick neck. Now in order to let Hu Mingchen's family cut down that tree that actually has little effect, it is normal for Liu Chunhua to be unwilling to give up the land.

Has Hu Mingchen become that kind of landlord and old wealth? Does he just want to gather more and more land? Of course not, Hu Mingchen is not so narrow-minded.

Hu Mingchen knows very well that now people care about the land that is the root of their life, and in a few years, everyone will not even be able to plant, what is the reason? Of course, farming is too uneconomical compared to part-time work.

With this stark contrast, especially for young people, who would want to choose to farm facing the loess with their backs to the sky.

What's more, working in the city not only makes money, but also increases knowledge and enjoys a convenient life. Over time, the family's land was either abandoned or planted within the reach of the old man.

Of course, the current wave of migrant workers going out has warmed up in Duge Township, but it is not common enough. Many people still stay at home to farm.

"Your family is just cutting down trees, but my family wants to give your family a piece of land, no, my family will not do it, and it will not be drawn at all. Liu Chunhua hesitated for a moment, glared at Hu Jianye and said.

Hu Jianye actually wanted to oppose this conditional proposal, but with Liu Chunhua present, Hu Jianye couldn't say what he wanted to say, and if his ideas were contrary to her, he would have to be scolded by her. So just shut up for the time being and wait for her to make a statement.

Of course, Hu Jianye's performance made Liu Chunhua dissatisfied, a big man has to look at his wife's face for this kind of thing, and he will be cowardly.

Don't think that Liu Chunhua will be happy everywhere when she eats Hu Jianye to death, and she doesn't want to carry the reputation of that "tigress". Besides, if the men in their own family have the ability, assertiveness, and ability, which woman would object? Who doesn't want to be the little rural person who is cared for all the time, isn't it that Hu Jianye can't support this family?

"Cut down a sacred tree in my house for no reason, my family can't even draw it, anyway, the conditions of my family are this, if you want to change, even if you don't want to, it's not my family that is forcing it, it's impossible for all good things to be occupied by your family, but my family can't even stand on the side. Hu Mingchen insisted on the conditions he proposed, and did not release any room for concession.

"Hmph, what a big breath, you little doll, can you do this master?" Liu Chunhua snorted in her nostrils and looked at Jiang Yucai.

No matter how capable Hu Mingchen is, Liu Chunhua doesn't think that such a big thing can be done with his words.

"He can call the shots, in fact, my family doesn't want to cut it yet, what can you do with that piece of land, you can't do anything, if you plant the land, what is the use of killing ten baogu. On the contrary, the tree in my house is a sacred tree, and cutting it down is very likely to affect feng shui and fortune, and my family is not willing to change it at all. Anyway, that tree is my family's, it grows in my field, and my family just doesn't want to cut it down. Jiang Yucai said.

Jiang Yucai's words were full of contradictions, as if they could be exchanged and discussed, but as if they didn't want to talk at all.

In fact, Jiang Yucai didn't think about it so much at all, he only knew that his son Hu Mingchen had to give him some face, and he couldn't let what he said look like a fart. On the other hand, Jiang Yucai also got it, and it was impossible for a smart person like Liu Chunhua to exchange a piece of land for that tree. Even if it's not a big piece of land and you can't grow much, it's still a piece of land anyway.

Liu Chunhua is a very calculating person, and she has no reason to do such a seemingly unflattering exchange. Otherwise, Liu Chunhua would not have said the above words, so Jiang Yucai's words would be full of logical contradictions.

To sum up, in one sentence, Jiang Yucai is not willing to cut down trees at all.

It's just that Jiang Yucai made a mistake that was not wrong, that is, she shouldn't have told Liu Chunhua what she actually thought in her heart while reiterating the importance of that tree.

If Jiang Yucai didn't mention any feng shui or fortune, maybe Liu Chunhua would continue to insist and be unwilling to exchange, but after Jiang Yucai's reminder, Liu Chunhua was shaken.

Why did Liu Chunhua have to let Hu Mingchen's family cut down the so-called sacred tree, didn't he see that Hu Mingchen's family was getting smoother and smoother, and really thought that it was the protection of the divine tree that made his family have this kind of luck.

Liu Chunhua can accept the good of other people's families, but she just can't see that Hu Mingchen's family is getting more and more nourishing than his family. The more Hu Mingchen's family's life changes and the richer they are, the more difficult it is for Liu Chunhua to accept.

In Liu Chunhua's heart, if Hu Mingchen's family continues like this, won't his family become worse and worse?

That's why he has to deliberately destroy the fortune of Hu Mingchen's family, her idea is no longer to suffer from poverty but unevenness, it seems to be a little perverted and crazy, but it is still understandable.

Anyway, there is always a group of people in society who can't look down on others, and the closer they are, the more they can't look down.

"Jiang Yucai, did you mean just now that if my family is willing to give that piece of land to your family, your family is willing to cut down that tree. Don't deny it, that's what you just said, there are other people on the scene, if you deny it, don't blame me for looking down on you. In order to force Jiang Yucai to stop, Liu Chunhua did not hesitate to say threatening words.

"You ......" Jiang Yucai was a little speechless.

She did mean that just now, but Liu Chunhua forced him so much and threatened her so much, which made her feel very uncomfortable.

"Mom, yes, it's not a big deal, you just agree, our family is a trustworthy family, and we will never let off empty cannons. Hu Mingchen was afraid that his mother would be angry and sternly refused, so he hurriedly persuaded her.

Jiang Yucai looked at Hu Mingchen and saw that Hu Mingchen kept winking at her. Although I don't know what Hu Mingchen's blink means, Jiang Yucai at least understands that Hu Mingchen means to let her follow his meaning.

"Yes, is your family willing?" Jiang Yucai said weakly and unsurely.

In addition to Hu Mingchen's blink, Jiang Yucai didn't want to show weakness in front of Liu Chunhua, and he didn't really want to cut down trees, so he would come up with such an unwilling sentence.

"Okay, what you said, daughter-in-law of the Tong family, what you heard next to you was Jiang Yucai, you help to be a witness. I agreed, and the land will be given to you, and in exchange, your family must cut down the old tree as soon as possible. Liu Chunhua thought of Li Xiuju's existence this time, and pulled Li Xiuju, who was originally only going to sit on the sidelines and watch the excitement, in.

"I can't do this testimony, lest I be scolded again, and what you two say and do is none of my business. Li Xiuju, who still had a grudge against Liu Chunhua, complained.

Li Xiuju actually didn't know that the land was actually wanted by Hu Mingchen, otherwise, her statement would have been changed to another one.

Li Xiuju's position has naturally leaned towards Hu Mingchen's family, so she feels that her refusal is helping Hu Mingchen's family.

"Aunt Tong, it's okay, you can do a favor and witness, as long as you are willing to change that land, my tree will be willing to cut down, this is a matter of you coming and going, it's not a big deal. Hu Mingchen said to Li Xiuju in turn.

"Huh? Xiao Chen...... You have to think about it, some people say that the sacred tree is not spiritual, but some people still think it is spiritual...... Are you really willing to cut down your land, plus the barren slopes, it's not a lot. Li Xiuju thought that Hu Mingchen was not thoughtful, and reminded kindly.

When she spoke, Li Xiuju deliberately glanced at Jiang Yucai a few times, meaning to remind her not to be disturbed by Hu Mingchen's ignorance.

"Xiao Chen, what the aunt said makes a lot of sense...... Jiang Yucai said.

"Mom, don't worry, I know it. A mouthful of spit and a pit, let's talk and do what we say. Just change it, there's nothing wrong with it. The peach tree of the big daddy's family is not covered, and our family has a little more land to grow vegetables, killing two birds with one stone. Hu Mingchen said to Jiang Yucaiyou.

"Okay, then it's decided, that piece of land belongs to your family, and tomorrow your family will cut down trees." Liu Chunhua hurriedly echoed Hu Mingchen's words so that the raw rice could be cooked into rice.

"Change the ownership of the land, it's not that we just say it, tomorrow your family will call the village chief Wu Luhui, and then call the grandparents, and our two families will write a note and draw a charge, and then count." Hu Mingchen said.

Hu Mingchen was really afraid that Liu Chunhua would be a moth again in the future, and when her family cut down the tree, she would turn her face and deny it. This kind of thing can't be done by others, but Liu Chunhua is not necessarily. In case she comes to say something that has no basis, then she will have to argue again.

Therefore, Hu Mingchen either doesn't do it, but if he wants to do it, he will strive to be tight, and he will not leave any chance to retract his confession, so as to eliminate future troubles.

"Okay, that's it, Hu Jianye, you go to Wu Luhui immediately and ask him to come down tomorrow to do a favor. Liu Chunhua was still afraid that Hu Mingchen's family would regret it, so she thought about it without further ado, and cut the mess quickly, so as not to have too many dreams at night.

"Oh. Hu Jianye replied reluctantly.

"You oh, hurry up, what are you waiting for here, it's getting dark, hurry up and come back to feed the pigs." Liu Chunhua urged impatiently.

"I'm here to call you to feed the pigs, why did it become that I have to come back to feed the pigs!" Hu Jianye muttered and complained.
