Rebirth 90s: Sweetheart Cub

  Chapter 117 People, you must know how to be grateful and be satisfied

  In the small courtyard under the dark night, there are no lights, only a faint moonlight flowing.

  The old village head stood in the middle of the yard, looking around at the surrounding villagers.

  As I get older, my eyes are not as good as before, and I can only see blurred images in dim light.

   Even so, he can recognize people at a glance.

  These are old guys who have been with Taoxi Village for decades, they are siblings.

"Okay! They are all from my own family, so let's not talk too much about polite words! Jianhe, come and help me with the registration. Who has helped how much, and clearly remember the amount of money. After you remember it, give me the list. In the future, I will Family by family!"

  Chen Jianhe nodded without saying a word.

   Soon someone brought a pen and paper.

  The main room was not spacious enough, and there were too many people, so Chen Jianhe directly turned on the flashlight, sat in the yard and began to register.

   "Li Laogen's house, one thousand yuan." Luo Yuqiong stood aside with her grandson Huazi, and spoke first.

  Seeing her husband take things up again, she didn't say a word of objection, expressing her support in this way.

   After her, the villagers signed up one by one.

  The small book was filled with pages quickly.

  Qiqi was still standing by the door of the main room, her figure was a small ball, her head was tilted slightly, half of her profile was reflected by the light of the main room, Wa'er smiled slightly.

   Zhang Xifeng was behind her, gently stroking the baby's head with his old hand, with the same smile on his face.

   "Mother-in-law, my mother gave me pocket money. I have saved two yuan. Can I give it to uncle?" She raised her head and asked softly.

  Zhang Xifeng smiled and said, "Of course, mother-in-law will make up the whole for you. Let's make up a hundred yuan and go to your second uncle to register."

"Okay, mother-in-law, wait for me, I'll get the money!" Qiqi's face burst into a bright smile, and she ran back to her and her mother's room, digging and digging in her little pillow, and took out a small stack of money. Flat banknotes.

  It's all a dime and two cents.

  These are the rewards her mother usually gives her. She only picks the one with the smallest denomination every time and saves it.

  Zhang Xifeng also took out her savings from the room, took Qiqi to the yard, put the money together and handed it to Chen Jianhe, "Qiqi and I will pool one hundred yuan."

  Hearing her voice, Chen Jianhe was stunned for a moment, and even the old village chief and others looked over, "Aunt Zhang, you only earned a total of two hundred this year, you—"

   Zhang Xifeng, a widowed old woman, has no labor force in her family. Everyone in the village knows that she can grow two acres of sweet potatoes every year to earn a living.

  This year, almost every household in the village sold watermelons and sweet potatoes with an income of one or two thousand. Only Zhang Xifeng got more than two hundred.

  Including the money she took Qiqi to the town to spend, there might not be much left over the two hundred or so yuan.

  Big guy has mixed feelings.

Zhang Xifeng smiled and said, "Old village chief, you can't leave me alone for the affairs of the village. Although this money is not much, it is also a part of my heart. Besides, I do what I can, and I know how much I can give. This one hundred yuan There's still Qiqi's two pocket money."

   There was a dull atmosphere at first, but everyone was amused by her words.

  Qiqi was embarrassed by the laughter, her little head was buried in the old woman's lap like a slap in the face, and she didn't lift it up for a long time.

   "Okay, I'll write it down! Zhang Xifeng, ninety-eight yuan! Seventy-seven, two yuan!" Chen Jianhe's voice was thick and straight, and every word was correct.

  Qiqi, "..." This will really stick her little face to her mother-in-law's lap.

   How embarrassing!

  The laughter in the yard became louder and louder.

   It fell on people's ears, but they could hear the warmth all over their bodies.

  Old Litou Goudanui and Goudan, a family of three had already come out, standing behind the crowd and did not step forward.

  Amidst the sound of counting and registration and bursts of laughter, the gloomy helplessness on the elderly and children gradually dissipated.

  Tears still flowed non-stop, the old couple frequently raised their hands to wipe them away, but there was a smile on their faces.

   Goudan bit his lips tightly, looked at the familiar faces in the yard, and quietly remembered their smiles and kindness at the moment.

  …

  The more than 60 households in Taoxi Village were finally registered in Chen Jianhe's small book, and no family was left behind.

  Chen Jianhe finally counted the number, and the money that the big guys collected was slightly more than 30,000.

  The mountain that almost crushed the Goudan family was moved away by the people of Taoxi Village with concerted efforts for more than an hour.

  It was getting late, the matter was settled, and the villagers dispersed, and they had to go to the credit union in the town to withdraw the money tomorrow morning.

  In the end, only the old village chief and Chen Jianhe were left in the yard, still discussing about going to Zhan City.

  Qiqi hadn't slept yet, so she and her mother-in-law cleaned up the scattered stools in the main room, swept the floor, and then sat under the eaves of the front porch of the house, resting her chin on her hands, listening intently to the two adults talking.

  Little egg man feels a bit complicated about his love for babies.

  It floated on the side of the baby's face with its arms folded, its eyebrows raised slightly, "baby, do you understand?"

   "Of course I can understand it." Wa'er's eyes were bent, looking at the old village head and Chen Jianhe in the eyes, full of dependence and admiration for the elders.

   "I knew that the village chief's grandfather and the second uncle must have a solution." With this sentence, the baby sighed excitedly, and it happened to fall into the ears of the man on the bamboo chair.

  Fu Yanchi hasn't left yet.

  He saw the scene in the yard from beginning to end.

  Hearing Wa'er's exclamation of joy, he silently chuckled when he looked at the two people who were still discussing things carefully.

  He began to understand why Qiqi went to the old village head and Chen Jianhe, because their sense of responsibility and commitment to Taoxi Village was indeed worthy of Qiqi's reliance.

   For this remote and poor village, he seems to need to get to know it again.

"Old village chief, people in your village don't live well, right? I just heard that people in the village earn one or two thousand a year, and it's all hard-earned money dug out from the ground." Fu Yanchi said, his tone soft and serious. At the same time, it can attract people's attention without making people feel disgusted, "If the money is taken out, I am afraid that every household will become more struggling in the future. In this case, why don't you ask Song Yueliang Song Boss to borrow money?" ? As far as I know, Boss Song donated 500,000 yuan in Yang County's urban-rural cooperation support plan."

  A big boss who can give away 500,000 yuan, asking her to borrow 30,000 yuan is not a problem at all.

  Adding that Taoxi Village is kind to Qiqi, Song Yueliang will not refuse Taoxi Village's request.

  This truth, Fu Yanchi privately thinks, everyone in Taoxi Village understands it in their hearts.

   What puzzled him was that none of the villagers in Taoxi Village mentioned Song Yueliang that night.

   "Young man, are you a guest of Qiqi's family?" The old village chief smiled, habitually took out the cigarette stick, and put it back.

  He said, "But what you said just now makes no sense."

   "Boss Song is Boss Song. This is a matter of our Taoxi Village, and we should solve it ourselves."

   "We can't just ask Boss Song for a loan just because she has money."

"She doesn't owe us anything, on the contrary, she has already given us a great kindness. If it weren't for Boss Song, we Taoxi Villagers would probably never be able to straighten our backs for the rest of our lives, and the big guys wouldn't be able to come up with such a sum of money today. "

  “Man, you must know how to be grateful and be content.”
