Leftover Girl's Neverland

Chapter 4 Origin
"Sure, it's easy to handle if you like it. My old man is helping Qingwu brother's house now, and he will come over in a while. You can talk about it after he comes. This house is still their old house. Xiao Fang, are you tired?" , look at the big weekend and trouble you, come on, let's all sit down and rest for a while."

Aunt Hao was getting old, and felt a little tired after working for a long time, so she called the two young people to sit down in the living room.There is only one antique Eight Immortals table and four matching wooden chairs in the living room.

Manager Fang sat down with her, while Meng Zhen was still looking around.The door of the living room is a bit on the east side. Standing in the room and looking south, except for the door, more than half of the wall on the south side is covered with large glass windows. It's also warm.She was thinking that the hanging chair she bought last year finally has a place to put it, um, put it behind the window, and add a small log or rattan table in front of the hanging chair, so that she can lie in the hanging chair to read and drink on weekends. Tea, taking a nap, Meng Zhen was very excited about the picture he imagined.

"Old Hao, are the guests here?"

The homeowner, Uncle Meng, walked in. He was 5 years older than his wife and was almost 70 years old this year. His hair was gray, but he was in good spirits.

"Hi, you are Uncle Meng. I often hear aunt mentioning you, but I have never seen you." Seeing the old man coming in, Manager Fang stood up quickly and asked the old man to sit down.

"Oh, this is Manager Xiaofang, right? Your aunt told me about you. You are young and have such a good career. What you do is to serve our elderly people. It's very good!"

Uncle Meng sat down and stayed in his hometown for the past few days. He said he came back to help, but in fact it was mainly to see his brother off. He didn't do much work, but he was a little flustered because he was an elderly person after all.

"Hello Uncle Meng, I'm Meng Zhen!"

Meng Zhen was alone thinking about how to decorate the house, when he heard the master came back, he hurried over to say hello.

"Yeah, okay, you want to buy this house, right? We have the same surname, so we are destined!"

Meng Qingyu looked at the girl in front of him, um, yes, from appearance to expression, she is a steady and careful child.

"Hehe, yes, uncle, I like your house very much, look..."

"Oh, like it? Why do you like it? Come on, kid, let's go out and have a good talk," Meng Qingyu got up and beckoned her out of the living room.

"How should I put it, the first time I saw this place, I had a feeling of home. When I entered the yard, it was like a very reassuring atmosphere surrounded me, giving me a sense of belonging. My childhood home, It is also a small farmyard. The area is smaller than this one. There is only one Chinese toon tree planted in the yard. My father planted a lot of roses, rhododendrons and so on. In summer, the flowers are all blooming, and the yard is full of light The fragrance of flowers. Later, our city was rebuilt and the old houses were demolished. I miss that quiet atmosphere. It has been many years, and I have this feeling here again today. Hehe, uncle, I am not good, Anyway, my home is here!"

When they walked under the pomegranate tree, Meng Zhen took out tissues from his bag, spread them on the edge of the pool, and helped the old man to sit down.

Hearing what she said, a strange look flashed in Meng Qingyu's eyes.

"Son, it seems that we are really destined. To be honest, there are several people who want to buy this house, but I didn't sell it. Whether it was before or after my fifth brother passed away, there are people who want my house. But I always None of them were sold, because it counts as our family’s ancestral home.”

The old man looked at everything in the yard with a complicated expression, and slowly said to Meng Zhen: "My grandfather specially invited the most famous Fengshui master in Quancheng Mansion back then to choose this place after he had visited Yushi Mountain for hundreds of miles. It’s a treasure land of geomantic omen. Maybe you young people don’t believe it, but since my grandfather built a house here, everything in the family has been going smoothly. Even in times of war, our family has survived safely. Later, due to historical reasons , this house was designated as a warehouse by the production team, and my father passed away. Later, the policy was implemented and the house was returned to me. The house was originally made of adobe and was in disrepair, and it almost collapsed when it was returned to me. Yes. But I am still ecstatic. Why, the homestead is still there, and the Fengshui treasure land has not been lost. It is strange to say that since I came back here, my life has begun to change. I will not give details You said it, anyway, I also believe what my grandfather and father said, this is our blessed land."

"Look at this pomegranate tree, I planted it myself when my eldest son was full moon. It has been more than 40 years in the blink of an eye; there is also the sycamore tree at the door, which was planted by my father. Decades Although I have passed away long ago, the memories of studying and working with my father are always engraved in my mind. Whenever I see this sycamore tree, I will think of my father's appearance, what he once said, alas..."

"I have always planned to come back when I am old, so when someone in the village wanted to buy this house, I refused. But now I have to go. I originally planned to give it to my fifth brother in return for his years of care. , I didn’t expect him to leave. Alas, then I must give it to someone who is destined, and I can’t let someone who doesn’t cherish it spoil it. As soon as my child heard what you said, I felt that you were destined for this house, because I can also feel that kind of stable atmosphere here, which is a feeling I have never experienced anywhere. So, I sold this house to you. The price, someone offered 8 a few days ago, and I did not agree. "

The old man paused on purpose, seeing Meng Zhen's expression changed from gloomy to firm, with a smile on his face: "When this house was renovated, it cost a total of 5 yuan, and the homestead is given to you. I only charge a material fee. Sell ​​it to you for 5!"

"Really?!" Meng Zhen was very pleasantly surprised. When she heard the old man say 8 yuan, she felt a little nervous. All her savings were not enough for this amount. She was secretly deciding how to raise the money, but it turned out to be a pleasant surprise. !
"Of course it's true. Anyway, I'm not short of this little money. As long as you can cherish it well, I'll be relieved!"

"Yeah, don't worry, this is my home, I will definitely cherish it, thank you, thank you so much!"

"Hehe, by the way, where is your household registration, Xiaomeng?" The old man looked at the excited child, and he was very happy.

When Meng Zhen heard this question, he was stunned, "Household registration? It seems that the household registration was moved to the school when I was in college, and it should be attached to the city talent center together with the file after graduation. Uncle Meng, why did you think of this? Transferring Do I still need a household registration?"

"Oh, that's it. If you don't mind the rural household registration, I suggest that you better get your household registration in Zhouwangzhuang, because I still have an acre of land here, and my fifth brother has been planting it since I left my hometown. But I signed the contract, and there is still a contract period of 20 years. If you put your household registration here, on the one hand, I can transfer the land to you, and on the other hand, the house is more secure. Although rural houses have no useful life , but if one day the government expropriates it, it must be returned to the country. Only those with local household registration can smoothly receive state subsidies. If not, it will be more troublesome at that time.”

It seems that Meng Zhen really fell in love with the old man, otherwise he would not have considered her so much.

"Well, okay, I'll go and find out what the household registration situation is now. Thank you in advance, Uncle Meng!"

She stood up and bowed sincerely to the old man.

"Xiao Meng, I don't want you to thank me, as long as you protect this place well, I will be satisfied!"

"do not worry!"

"Okay, tomorrow is my fifth brother's 'first seven', and I will stay here for another day. If you make a decision, come over tomorrow to complete the formalities. As for you, as my distant niece, I will transfer the house and land Here you are. The village party secretary here is also my uncle and nephew, and he has a very good relationship with him. I will explain your situation to him clearly, and it will be more convenient for you to live here in the future.”

"Okay, I'll bring the money here tomorrow, and let's go through the formalities. However, the notary office and the police station are closed. I will go through the specific procedures after the weekend, and I will trouble you again."

"It doesn't matter. Anyway, other things have been dealt with now. After this is done, I can go abroad without any worries."

After the matter was settled, Meng Zhen and Manager Fang were about to leave. Originally, the two elders tried their best to persuade them to have lunch here before going back, but the elder came back to deal with the funeral, and it was not convenient to entertain guests at all, so they declined their kindness. Drove back to the city.

Meng Qingyu looked at the car going away, came to the plane tree in front of the door, and gently stroked the rough bark: "Father, I gave this place to a destined person. Our Meng family lives on this land." I got a miracle. I believe that the girl named Meng Zhen will also have the same adventure. I am leaving. If there is a chance, I will come back and have a look. Don't worry, the blessed land is given to the blessed , we can also be regarded as a reward for it..."

It can be said that Meng Zhen returned home with a full reward, and Manager Fang was also smiling.She thought to herself, it seems that when she talked with Uncle Meng, Aunt Hao must have given the manager a lot of useful information, otherwise, he would not be so happy.
