Chapter 143 The Real Difference Between Rural People and City People
Fengqiu County is located in the northeast of Zhongzhou, and it takes about an hour and a half to drive from Zhongzhou.

Luo Tianyou's home is at the intersection of Anluo Expressway and Lanyuan Expressway, in a place called Zhangmo Village.

When Zhang Yue arrived, he unexpectedly found that the place was much more prosperous than he had imagined.

Especially the cement roads extending in all directions in the village are clean and elegant.

The yellow and green trash cans on both sides of the road are neatly placed, and those who don't know it think they are in the urban area of ​​Zhongzhou.

Zhang Yue couldn't help but praised: "I went to the countryside of Wei County to collect grain before, and what I saw was similar.

It seems that the country has made great efforts in this regard in recent years, and has really done a lot of practical things for our common people. "

Wu Qingshan nodded: "The policy is naturally good, but when it comes to trash cans, there is another interesting thing in my hometown."

Knowing that Wu Qingshan was also from the countryside, Zhang Yue couldn't help asking curiously, "An interesting thing?"

"Yes, when the township government organized personnel to place trash cans in the villages for the first time, the trash cans were often lost."

Zhang Yue was taken aback: "What? The trash can is missing?"

It was hard for him to imagine that there was anything to steal from a smelly thing that was used to store all kinds of garbage.

Wu Qingshan said: "Yeah, I can't figure it out either, but the trash can was found later, and it was taken by the villagers in the village.

Do you know what everyone is using it for? "

"What?"

"Water storage, and water for eating.

In the eyes of the villagers, this thing is much stronger than the plastic buckets they bought in the store, and it is a waste to put garbage. "

Zhang Yue: "Uh..."

To be honest, as he grew up in the county and had been exposed to trash cans since he was a child, it was difficult for him to understand the thinking of those villagers.

Shaking his head, Zhang Yue never felt how ignorant farmers were before.

His father Zhang Liguo opened a grain store, and he dealt with farmers a lot.

In Zhang Yue's mind, farmers are at most less literate and less knowledgeable, and they are no different from him in other respects.

But if it is true as Wu Qingshan said, there is still a gap between the two.

It's just that this gap is not as malicious or non-malicious as uglification in movies and TV, and it can't be felt at all without close contact.

The car turned at an intersection and then stopped on the side of the road.

Wu Qingshan said: "It's here."

After finishing speaking, he knocked on the door, and soon a middle-aged woman came out of the house.

She looked to be in her 40s, with a haggard face and half-white hair, but she was in good spirits.

If he guessed correctly, the other party should be Tian Kailan, Luo Tianyou's wife.

Seeing Wu Qingshan, Tian Kailan immediately smiled and said, "It's Xiao Wu, come in quickly."

Zhang Yue was taken aback for a moment, completely unable to understand how the two of them became familiar.

Wu Qingshan said hello to Tian Kailan first, and then whispered to Zhang Yue: "I came here last time, the excuse is that Luo Tianyou's workers.

And when I left, I left them 1000 yuan. "

Zhang Yue gave a thumbs up: "Good job!"

As soon as the two of them sat down in the living room, a voice came from the west room: "Lan Lan, who is it?"

With an old voice, Zhang Yue quickly replied: "Grandma, I am a former worker of Uncle Luo, and I came to Fengqiu this time to see you."

"Really? Then come in quickly."

Zhang Yue walked in and saw an old lady sitting on the bed with a kind face.

He put down the milk and fruit he had prepared.

When the old lady saw it, she was even happier: "You are all good boys.

Lan Lan, take out the tea leaves Tianyou treasured back then and make tea for them.

My legs and feet are not very flexible, so I can't go down. "

Zhang Yue was puzzled: "This is your leg?"

"The doctor said it was an injury to the synovium of the knee joint." Tian Kailan explained.

Zhang Yuedao: "Injury to the synovial membrane of the knee joint? This disease seems to be treatable now, right?
Even if it is very serious, it is possible to replace the joint. "

"This..." The atmosphere was slightly awkward, and Tian Kailan's eyes dimmed.

Zhang Yue instantly realized that he had said something wrong.

Even with medical insurance, the cost of joint replacement is about 5 yuan.

This is nothing to him, but looking at the empty house of Tian Kailan's house, it is definitely an astronomical sum.

Wu Qingshan immediately changed the subject: "Auntie, where is Tie Jun?
The last time I drank with him, I was unprepared, and I was directly poured down.

Today I came here to take revenge. "

In the end, it was fine if he didn't say anything, but Tian Kailan's face became even more sad when he said it: "He went to the Wang Laosi's house to gamble."

"What? Gambling?" Zhang Yue's heart sank.

As the saying goes, "Gambling and gambling, the more you gamble, the thinner you are."

For gamblers at the gaming table, it is very easy to lose their minds because of money. Even if they save tens of thousands of wealth, they may lose it all overnight.

This is true for multi-millionaires, and it is also true for sports stars, not to mention the destitute Tian Kailan.

If Luo Tianyou's son Luo Tiejun also gambles, it will undoubtedly make things worse for the family.

He immediately asked, "Where are the four Wang and Lao family?"

"It's next door next door."

Zhang Yue said to Wu Qingshan: "Let's go and have a look."

According to Tian Kailan's words, the two walked across two streets and came to a big iron gate painted with blue paint.

Standing outside the door, Zhang Yue heard the voices of shouting and shouting inside.

Wu Qingshan wanted to knock on the door, but found that the moment his hand touched the door, the door opened in response.

The two went in directly, and sure enough, they saw seven or eight people gathered in the living room of the main room.

When Zhang Yue approached, he found that there were only three people playing cards, and the rest were watching.

Luo Tiejun sat on the west side, with a cigarette in his mouth, looking at the cards in his hand, with a look of bitterness and hatred.

Zhang Yue took a look and found that the three of them were fighting the landlord, and the rules were the same as those of the penguin fighting the landlord.

Luo Tiejun is the landlord, and the cards in his hand are "pair 2, J bomb, three 6s and 8s".

It was time for Luo Tiejun to play cards, and he said directly: "Two to two!"

The tone is sonorous, and there is a great spirit that although there are thousands of people, I will go.

However, Xia Jia glanced at him without hesitation: "5 bombs!"

Luo Tiejun did not hesitate: "J bomb!"

"K bomb!" Another farmer's voice was calm, so Luo Tiejun was dumbfounded.

"Do you want it? No to 4!

still don't?To 7..."

Without any suspense, Luo Tiejun, who only had three 6s and a single 8, lost.

"Take the money and take the money."

"There are four bombs in this round, which can be doubled four times in a row. Hey, how much did we win in total?"

Luo Tiejun's face instantly turned pale when he heard the words: "I... I don't have so much money."

"No money?" The faces of the two people on the opposite side immediately turned black, "You play a bad card if you don't have money? Are you still pretending to be like a big clove of garlic?
Tell you that if you want to gamble, you must admit defeat, and you will not owe any gambling debts.

If you really don't have one, we'll go to your house and ask your mother for it now. "

Hearing what the other party said, Luo Tiejun's eyes instantly turned red: "Don't you dare to tell my mother about this!"

"Don't tell? Yes, then you pay!"

"I have no money!"

"you……"

Seeing that the two sides were talking and almost fighting, Zhang Yue suddenly asked:

"Why don't you come out with three belts and one first?

The two kings have already come down, and they still have a lot of cards in their hands. Even if there are two bombs outside, they can't stop your pair of 2s. "

Luo Tiejun was taken aback, and just about to ask who Zhang Yue was, then he saw Wu Qingshan.

"Brother Qingshan, why are you here? I..."

He was a little embarrassed, presumably the other party saw the repudiation.

Zhang Yue shook his head and said to the two: "How much he has lost, I will pay it back for him."

The two were instantly happy: "8 yuan per person, 16 yuan in total."

Zhang Yue was stunned: "How much did you say?"

"16 yuan?"

Well, seeing the tension between the two sides just now, he thought that Luo Tiejun lost thousands, even tens of thousands!
did not expect……

He couldn't help asking: "Don't the four bombs have to be flipped four times in a row?"

"That's right, he lost 16 yuan just because he flipped four times in a row."

"How old are you playing?"

"Five cents."

Zhang Yue: "..."

After paying the money, the three left from Wang Laosi's house.

On the way, Luo Tiejun said to Zhang Yue: "Brother Zhang, thank you just now!"

Zhang Yue looked at him: "I heard that you never played cards before, did something happen to you?"

Zhang Yue was shocked when Tian Kailan said that his son Luo Tiejun gambled.

Seeing that he is only playing this kind of "little five cents" that has been eliminated in the countryside now, Zhang Yue understands that he has misunderstood.

Moreover, the way Luo Tiejun played cards was very impulsive, and it seemed more like venting than winning money.

Even Zhang Yue, who is only familiar with the rules of Doudizhu, knows how to play. He doesn't believe that Luo Tiejun doesn't know.

Sure enough, upon hearing Zhang Yue's words, Luo Tiejun's footsteps stopped, and his expression turned gray instantly:

"I broke up with Meifang."

Zhang Yue was taken aback: "Break up? Is Meifang your girlfriend?"

"Well, the two of us are classmates in high school. We fell in love in the second year of high school. It has been eight years."

sophomore...

Zhang Yue couldn't help giving this buddy a thumbs up in his heart.

To be able to find a girlfriend in high school is definitely a talent.

Anyway, Zhang Yue knew that he had absolutely no such ability.

"Can you tell me why?"

"Why else, her mother wants a gift of sixty-six thousand, but my family can't get it out."

Wu Qingshan interjected: "Sixty-six thousand is not too much in rural areas now, is it?
In our case, you are embarrassed to ask for less than 12 yuan. The normal price is 20 yuan, and there are [-] yuan for higher prices. "

Hearing this, Luo Tiejun's eyes couldn't help but turn red even though Luo Tiejun was so strong:
"Our betrothal gifts are similar to yours, so Meifang is a good girl, I'm sorry for her!"

The three of them were talking when suddenly a young woman stood in front of them.

The moment Luo Tiejun saw the young woman, he said blankly: "Meifang, you...why are you here?"

The young woman rushed over suddenly, reached out and grabbed Luo Tiejun by the collar:
"What did you mean by the previous phone call? Why did you want me to break up with you? How did I feel sorry for you?"

"I... sorry, it's me... I have no money at home."

"Money, money, money, money all day long.

Didn't I say that?If there is no money, we will elope.

I, Ai Meifang, will only recognize you in my life, and I will not marry anyone else. "

"But……"

"But what?" Ai Meifang became even angrier, "Even if you don't think about me, you should also think about the child in my belly, right?

Of course, if you insist on breaking up, I will immediately go to the hospital to abort the child. "

After finishing speaking, she turned her head and left, and quickly ran away.

"No, Meifang, you..." Luo Tiejun wanted to chase after him, but he never took a step, obviously suffering and struggling in his heart.

Suddenly he squatted directly on the ground and burst into tears.

It took a long time for the crying to subside, then Zhang Yue patted him on the shoulder and said calmly: "Brother, isn't it because of lack of money?

Maybe, I can help you! "
