The Story of Qingfeng Village

Chapter 99 Li Fumin's Thoughts

Li Fumin didn't care about what his son thought, he had a lot on his mind.

To be honest, he has been away from home for so many years, thinking that Qingfeng Village has changed a lot, but when he came back and looked, hey, it was not much better before he left.

I have been outside for so many years, and seeing the peasants in other places become rich, I feel deeply in my heart.

At the beginning, the son came to pick them up because the son was getting married, the daughter-in-law was from there, and Li Qiang also found a job there, so he took the old couple to live together.

Li Fumin originally wanted to leave after attending the wedding, but his son and daughter-in-law wanted to keep them and said they would take good care of them.

Li Fumin: "Who will take care of me, I'm not too old to move..."

Insist on coming back.After all, it's not my home.Although the son and daughter-in-law have their own house, Li Fumin always feels that they are dependent on others.

It was Aunt Li who persuaded him: "Look at Qiang, she is busy all day long, and her daughter-in-law also runs around and drives to deliver the goods. Don't you know how to help me, you old man? If you want to go, you go." , I will stay...Qiangwa said that Dongli is pregnant, and I want to stay and take care of her and my grandson..."

Li Fumin: Grandson, is there no shadow yet?

But he didn't dare to say that, Aunt Li is very imposing now.Being a mother-in-law is different.

Since he ceased to be the branch secretary, it seemed that he had no right to speak.

He is out of breath.

His wife insisted on staying, so he had no choice but to stay.

Could it be that he went back to Qingfeng Village alone?

How can I tell the villagers when I go back?
Could it be that the whole family enjoys happiness there, and he comes back alone to suffer poverty?

Li Fumin had no choice but to stay.

Later, I learned a lot there with my son Li Qiang. Although there are also farmers there, they are close to the provincial capital and belong to the suburban county of the provincial capital. All aspects are better than Qingfeng Village. The transportation is developed, the mind is open, and the economy is early. Live it up, the people over there have already become rich, those engaged in farming are engaged in farming, those who grow vegetables grow vegetables, those who open factories open factories, and every household is living in small western-style buildings with small cars driving.Some people have several cars, including delivery vans, vans, and cars.Every household has electricity and water.

Old women cook with electricity or gas, unlike at home, where they have to burn firewood and pull bellows to make smoke and gas.

This is the way of life of the new farmers in the new countryside.

Those days were no worse than those in the city.

Son Li Qiang also has a car.And more than one.Both he and his wife can drive.

On holidays, the son or daughter-in-law will drive the car and take the old couple to visit the provincial capital, watch the excitement, eat delicious food, and come back at night, which is very convenient.

But this time the car didn't come back. He said it was better to keep a low profile. Besides, the roads in Qingfeng Village were so bad, it was still a question of whether the car could be driven back to the village.

Li Qiang has contracted a large lake to raise fish over there. The income is high, but it is also very hard.

Every day before dawn, I have to go to the lake to catch the big fish and transport them to the city to supply several merchants in the city's aquatic product market.

In the past, delivery was the responsibility of his daughter-in-law Gao Dongli, but now that her daughter-in-law is pregnant, Li Qiang doesn't want her to drive around.

Just go deliver it yourself.

I have to work on feeding the fish when I come back.

It is indeed too busy to take up space.

Li Fumin followed his son to help.

Aunt Li cooks and tidies up at home.

The fish pond also hired a few workers, so it took three meals to prepare meals for several people.

When Li Fumin was in Qingfeng Village, he often helped Li Qiang guard the weir and pond to feed the fish, so he knew a little bit more.

But when I came into contact with the Great Lakes, I felt that it was insignificant.

It is really not easy for my son to manage such a large lake.

So he completely stopped thinking about leaving, and settled down to help his son.

Later, the grandson was born, and the three generations of the family enjoyed themselves happily. In addition, the in-laws never treated them as outsiders, and the villagers got along well with them.

There are also a large number of migrants in the village over there. The helpers hired by their family's fish pond are also foreigners, and most of the workers hired by the brother-in-law's factory are also foreigners.Also those big vegetable growers also hire people to work from planting to harvesting.

That aura was something that could not be seen in Qingfeng Village.

I couldn't even imagine it before I came here.

Over the past few years, Li Fumin has learned a lot from his son and has become half an expert in breeding.

If they hadn't been asked to come back to sign the agreement this time, Li Fumin would not have thought of leaving.

He worked comfortably there, lived comfortably, and lived comfortably.

But when I came back and saw that Qingfeng Village was still the same, I felt strange.

To be honest, in the past, the mobile company's compensation was a lot of money, but now, for him, it was more than a mention.

The pocket money that the son gave them over the years added up to more than this amount, not to mention that the daughter-in-law had to pay him a salary every month.

He is also a fishpond worker.

He didn't want the money at first, but asked for the money for his son, and he laughed to death when he said it, what do others think, what does his father-in-law think?
Daughter-in-law Gao Dongli is sensible.

She said: Dad, you and Mom came to help us, which relieved us a lot of burden, and we have done our best.We got your wish.

But if you work in the fish pond, you will be paid accordingly.

One is one and two is two.

Otherwise, if we invite other people to help, we will also have to pay for it.

Similarly, if you go to work for others, other bosses will also have to pay you wages.

We can't not give you wages just because you are a father, let you help for nothing, and we will be laughed at if we say it, and they will say that we exploit labor.Dad, don't give us such a bad reputation. "

Li Fumin wanted to decline, but Aunt Li spoke. "If you are paid, you will accept it. My daughter-in-law is right. If you hire someone else, the money will still have to be taken out. Instead of this, it is better to pay you so that the fat and water do not flow into other people's fields. You keep it, and later It's still my family."

Upon hearing this, Li Fumin accepted it, and accepted it himself, so he can give it to his son or grandson in the future.

Hey, the fat and water are not left to outsiders.

Over the past few years, his salary has also been quite high.

And he didn't spend much.

The son and daughter-in-law are already covered, and they often buy clothes for them. At most, they can buy some cigarettes for themselves and some toys and snacks for the grandson. It doesn’t cost much, so over the past few years, he has also saved a sum of money. .

That's why he had the courage to say to Wang Defa that he didn't need the compensation.

He generously donated the compensation to the village committee.

2 to [-] yuan is not a big amount to him now.Say donate and donate.

It's just that when I came back and looked at the dilapidated Yantang, I felt a little unhappy.

This is a waste of resources.

Following his son and daughter-in-law, he also knows what resources are.

Why didn't anyone come to hire them to raise fish?
What a pity, what a pity.

Li Fumin looked at the weir pond outside the yard, and took a deep drag on his cigarette.

When he came back, he found Grandpa's old tobacco pipe and smoked it too.
