Chapter 171 The Battle of the Land

It has been more than a month since the flood. Although the compensation has not yet been paid, everyone has gradually returned to normal. The people of the country are always like this. In the face of disasters, their self-rescue and recovery capabilities are amazing. After all, life is still going on.

"Little guy, that's how you welcome me!" Wu Chen returned home and got out of the car. There was no one in the house, but he saw the old turtle lying on the threshold, spreading his limbs to bask in the sun, looking lazy and confused. Focusing his eyes, when he heard the noise, he raised his head to look at Wu Chen, then lay down again with drooping face and continued to be confused.

Wu Chen thought it was funny, he really looked like a grandpa!The old tortoise has been at home for a few days, and has gradually adapted to this kind of home life. Every day, there are pork or small fish to eat, and toys for him to play with. His life is more comfortable than human beings!

After teasing the turtle for a while, Wu Chen boiled a large pot of boiling water, put it in a wooden barrel, and soaked himself hard.

Sitting alone at the coffee table drinking tea, I was enjoying myself when I heard my mother's voice.She saw Gio who came back from Wu Chen's car, and thought it was someone who was visiting. After entering the house, she found that it was her son, so she wondered why he changed the car.

Wu Chen explained a bit, anyway, my mother couldn't tell which one was worth, Da Ben or Gio, so she just passed on.

"Chen, didn't you say you were going to visit your second aunt's house? She called yesterday and asked you to go over there if you have time!" Wu Ma asked a little about Wu Chen's situation in the past few days, and he said that in The classmates went to play at home, and they didn't care.

"Yeah, okay. How about going now?" Wu Chen remembered that Da Ya never forgot to be a landlord!It's all right, forget about it.He looked at it, and it was late afternoon, and the time was still very wide. The village where the second aunt's house was located was not far from their place, and it took more than 40 minutes to drive there.Mom put down her things, got in the car and left without saying a word.

Country kids, when they were young, their parents didn't give them any pocket money, so if they got hungry, they had to work harder and visit relatives more!Wu Chen often went to his second aunt's house when he was a child. Although he hadn't left for many years, he still remembered the way.

Arriving at the village entrance of the second aunt's house, Wu Chen was about to drive into the village, but his mother said that the second aunt and the others no longer lived in the old house, and moved to the valley they contracted.

Wu Chen detoured from the village, followed the path behind the village, and drove to the foot of Erlong Mountain. Sure enough, he saw a row of new bungalows in the distance, built on a piece of flat land on the hillside.When I came here before, I just built some sheds here with bamboo. Judging from this posture, it means to take root.

I got to a small road nearby, but I couldn't drive in. I put the car there, got down and walked in.I saw citrus orchards on both sides, and a small ditch went up along the trail.

About 50 meters ago, the terrain started to go higher, but it was opened into layers like terraced fields, with various fruit trees planted, only the middle layer was built with houses, and several ponds were dug on both sides, and there were everywhere on it. A wandering goose.

Wu Chen walked in, looked at the cattle running all over the mountain, and listened to the barking of dogs, envious in his heart, this is the life of a fairy!But his idea was quickly shattered by reality.

The second aunt also heard the barking of the dog, went out, saw them standing on the platform, and started talking to Wu Ma from a distance.When Wu Chen and the others arrived, the second aunt's family came out and waited for them on the platform. It was full of family members, except for the second aunt and second uncle, as well as a cousin, his wife, and two children.

My cousin just got married two years ago. Wu Chen had never even met his wife. Unexpectedly, there were already two children. After exchanging pleasantries, everyone went back to the middle living room and sat down, making tea and chatting.

Wu Chen chatted with him for a while, handed him cigarettes, and casually boasted that Uncle would be happy, but Unexpectedly, Second Uncle made a bitter face when he heard this, poured a lot of bitterness, they originally contracted here for five years to grow fruit, Those who dig ponds, raise geese and herd cattle, as the number of people who eat cattle have increased in the past two years, their annual income is very considerable.

It happened to be due this year. According to the new policy, the contract was re-contracted for 30 years, and we were going to do a big job. Even the new house was built, and the family moved here.

Unexpectedly, some time ago, people came to the door one after another, asking them to sublet this piece of land. Later, even the village chief came to the door and advised them to sublet it.

The village head is a cousin, and in terms of seniority, he is a generation younger than the second uncle, and he usually walks around a lot. If it wasn't really a lot of pressure, he wouldn't come to talk about it!

Isn't this bullshit!The second uncle drove the village head away on the spot, but the family was very worried. They had invested all their belongings here. They bought a new batch of goose egg incubators and bought some cowboys. At this time, they were asked to move away. With no place to stay, wouldn't it mean that all the savings of the past few years have been wasted?

"Who the hell wants to own this land?" Wu Chen frowned after listening to the second uncle's bitterness. Is there anyone else who is as fond of this place as he is?

"It's the son of Datou Hong!" The cousin said angrily, this is within the scope of their village, if it weren't for Hong Tianxi, who is a dragon like Hong Tianxi, who would dare to come here to cause trouble?

"Hong Tian..." Wu Chen heard from his mother before, but he can't remember the name, "Isn't that guy poaching his hometown?"

"That's right! It's Hong Tianxi, a mother-in-law of Pu!!" My cousin is full of blood after all, and he doesn't speak as sadly as the second uncle, "It is said that he is back to travel, and he is looking for places everywhere. I heard that the leaders of the county have come forward! "

"Could it be that there are really things his father buried here?" Wu Chen recalled the rumor about Hong Tianxi returning to his hometown to dig treasures, which was told by his mother.

The second uncle gave a wry smile, where is there any treasure, except for digging out some copper coins, there is nothing.This matter should be left in previous years, and he has no objection, but now that he has invested so much, it would be fatal to move away!

"Chen, do you know the leaders of the county?" Second Aunt hadn't said a word, so she interrupted and asked.She had heard from her boss about Wu Chen's resignation, but in her opinion, Wu Chen was an official in the province anyway, so he should know some people anyway.

Wu Chen pondered for a while, he was a little guilty, his mother was the boss, so he was naturally the boss of this generation, and the bunch of cousins ​​below, in the eyes of the old family, only he was a bit promising, but it's a pity that he graduated Since then, he has been very depressed. In addition, he is calm and easy-going by nature. As an individual, there is nothing to criticize, but as a family member, he is very irresponsible!

"Well, I'll ask first when I turn around." Seeing that Wu Chen didn't speak, the second uncle was afraid that he would be embarrassed, but instead persuaded him with kind words. Wu Chen knew that these elders had always cared for him, so he was moved.He knew that this matter would not be that simple, but he couldn't let it go, so let's inquire first.

Back home, Wu Chen called County Magistrate Tu, made an appointment, and visited his office with two packs of tea.These things still have to be discussed in person, and it is impossible to make it clear on the phone.
