Rebirth 2010 Buying a House

Chapter 13 Back to Hometown
Xu Wenwen naturally couldn't outrun Liu Da.

The two of them chased each other all the way to the classroom. Liu Da was sitting on his seat. Xu Wenwen refused to let him go and slapped him on the back while panting.

Although the sound was not loud, it still attracted the attention of many people in the class.

Seeing so many people looking at Xu Wenwen, she didn't want to continue to pester her. She snorted coldly and sat down towards her seat.

"Why did you provoke others?"

Liu Da finally escaped from Xu Wenwen's clutches, but then he received Lin Xiawei's strange question.

"Ahem, how could I provoke her? I'm a good student."

Liu Da coughed twice awkwardly and said.

Naturally, he wouldn't tell anyone about the triangular face in Class [-]. What he hated most, whether in his previous life or in this life, were those who liked to gossip.

Regardless of men and women.

Xu Wenwen's matter came to an end, and the boy in Class [-] never went to see Xu Wenwen again.

Liu Da continued to immerse himself in answering questions day after day.

Although I am only in the first semester of my second year of high school, I have already started to learn the knowledge of my third year of high school, and the progress in school has been very fast.

After all, you still need to set aside time for overall review.

Liu Da devoted himself to studying, but he suffered a lot from Liu Da's father. Ever since he took over Liu Da's six houses, he has been in pain and happiness.

He is fully responsible for a series of things including the rental and decoration of the house. Fortunately, Father Liu did not miss the mark on these matters, and the decoration process is also very gratifying.

The time of my second year in high school passed quickly, and a semester flew by in the blink of an eye.

In the last final exam for his sophomore year of high school, Liu Da unsurprisingly ranked second in the grade with a score of over 670 points.

This made Liu Da's parents beam with joy. What they were most concerned about was Liu Da's academic performance, which was even more important to them than Liu Da's six apartments.

"I will go back with your father this New Year. If you want to go back, you can go back together. If you don't want to go back, you can stay at home with your sister."

Mom sat on the sofa in the living room and said to Liu Da.

In the past, it was not possible to transfer much money, and Liu Da's family rarely returned to their hometown.

But things are different now. Although they don't have much money in hand, life is much more relaxed at least, and they still have six houses under construction. This makes Liu's father and Liu's mother feel much more confident.

"Did my dad tell my grandma about buying a house at home?"

Liu Da suddenly asked as he peeled the orange in his hand.

Liu Da asked this for a reason. In his grandfather's house, Liu's father was the eldest, but he was also the least popular one.

He went to Jincheng to serve as a soldier when he was sixteen or seventeen years old, and he never went back home again.

But whether it's Liu Da's second uncle doing business or third uncle going to school, it's his father who pays.

It's okay when you have money. No matter how much Liu's mother complains, fortunately, the family can live a decent life without the money.

But when something happened to Liu Da's family in Jincheng, they fled home in embarrassment.

Grandma's attitude was chilling, and the second uncle didn't even ask. There was absolutely no problem with the word selfishness in Grandma Liu Da's house.

Liu Da still remembers that when he was in elementary school, he went home with his parents, but in the end he received a lot of looks and cynicism.

This is in line with what my father said, when you have money, you are a human being, but when you have no money, you are worse than a dog on the street.

"How could your dad not tell me? Yuandong wants to get married next year. Your grandma also asked your dad to give one of the houses at home to Yuandong."

Mom said to Liu Da with a hint of resentment.

Liu Yuandong is the child of Liu Da's second uncle's family and is three years older than Liu Da.

"Then what did my dad say?"

Liu Da asked.

"What can your father say? Just say that the house is in your name and ask your mother to discuss it with you."

Obviously, his father's response satisfied his mother, and at this moment, Liu Da could already imagine what he would encounter after returning to his hometown.

"Go back. We'll go back together when the time comes. Anyway, we'll only stay for a few days. We'll be back after the New Year."

Liu Da was silent for a moment and suddenly spoke.

Liu's mother and Liu's father were actually reluctant to take Liu Da back. After all, Liu Da was about to be in his senior year of high school, and they were afraid that Liu Da's studies would be delayed due to family matters.

But in the end, Liu Da followed Liu's father and mother on the bus back to his hometown.

There are a lot of people on the car on the way home, and many of them in Shicheng are migrant workers from their hometown, so they will naturally go home for a reunion at the end of the year.

Liu Da was bundled up tightly and sat at the back with a backpack on his back. Looking at all kinds of people in the car, he felt quite emotional in his heart.

The car didn't drive very fast, and it took more than three hours in total to get from Shicheng to my hometown in the county.

Then it took another two hours to rush back to the village from the county town in three rounds. I got on the car in the afternoon, and it was almost dark when I returned home.

Looking at the familiar courtyard of his hometown, Liu Da stood in a daze for a moment before finally coming to his senses.

In the previous life, the yard had been demolished long ago. Later, the second uncle built a two-story building on the original location of the old house, and their place in the family had long since disappeared.

"Why did you arrive so late?"

Walking into the yard, Liu Da saw grandma coming out of the house, frowning and looking at his parents and talking.

Liu Yuandong also walked out of the house.

"Uncle, you're back."

While speaking, she reached out to help Dad Liu carry things, but Dad Liu avoided him.

Several people walked into the house, put their things in, and sat by the stove in the back room to keep warm. Mother Liu helped grandma clean up the kang in the back room. Tonight, Father Liu and Mother Liu slept in the back room.

Liu Da slept on a small bed outside.

Before my mother could finish cleaning up, she saw her second uncle walking in from outside the yard.

"You're back. It's been cold these days. If the quilt is not enough, I won't go to the backyard to hug you."

The second uncle said with a very concerned look, but he didn't mean to move as he said this.

After a while, the back room was tidied up, but the second uncle and Liu Yuandong had no intention of going back.

Liu Da naturally knew what they wanted to say, but if they didn't mention him or say anything, they would just waste it.

But in the end, it was Grandma Liu Da who spoke first.

"It's spring in the Far East and we need to get engaged. Liu Da is still young. Besides, you guys can't live in so many houses."

Hearing grandma speak, the second uncle also spoke.

"If it doesn't work, just think that I bought it for Far East. I still have 3 yuan in hand. I will give you the rest slowly."

My mother was the first to change her face when she heard what the second uncle said, and said that she would give the rest of the 3 yuan slowly, but everyone knew that it would only be the [-] yuan at most.

Dad's expression is not very good at the moment, but Liu Da is the only one who looks normal.

From the bottom of his heart, he didn't care about these two people. Maybe his parents were still worried because of his grandma, but he had seen through it in his previous life. The more worried his parents were, the less they would take you seriously.
