Chapter 223

Liang Teng was asking the right person this time.

One of the shareholders of "99 Sharing" Internet Service Co., Ltd. happens to be the cousin of the owner of the "siheyuan".Therefore, the shareholders are well aware of the owner's situation.

Speaking of Zhou Zhong, the owner of this "siheyuan", his fate was quite rough.

When his mother was working, she met a smooth-talking scumbag, fell under the opponent's attack, and then became pregnant with Zhou Zhong.

In the end, the scumbag just wanted to have fun and didn't want to have children.Zhou Zhong's mother couldn't bear to kill the child.What happened in the end?That scumbag disappeared straight away.

In this predicament, Zhou's mother still wanted to give birth to the child.

Her obsession made even her natal family unhappy.I don't want her to stay at home and have a baby.Taking advantage of her belly "not yet showing signs of pregnancy", she urged her to quickly find someone to marry and forget it.

My family is from the countryside, so I searched for a "suitable husband-in-law" around my hometown in the countryside.

As a result, there was a man surnamed Zhou who was "extremely poor" in his family. Because it was difficult to find a wife, he didn't dislike "Mother Zhou" who married with pregnancy.

That poor man's name is Zhou Jiji.There is only one eldest brother, Zhou Jizheng, and two older sisters in the family.His parents passed away when "Zhou Ji" was still in his infancy.

In Zhou Jiji's family, a poor man, it can be said that "every generation is getting lazy", and each generation is getting poorer.

When my father was alive, he didn't do his job properly, didn't think about making progress, and was so poor that he still lived by "fishing for one day and drying the net for two days".

When his wife gave birth to her youngest son (also known as "Zhou Ji"), she died of dystocia.

An idle father leaves his youngest son to his older daughter.Eat rice porridge when you are hungry.After all, the children were all brought up.The two daughters are married, and the family does not need to prepare any money.On the contrary, some "betrothal gifts" can be obtained to supplement part of the household.

When the eldest son "Zhou Jizheng" was about to marry a wife, the pressure from his father came immediately.My father is not the kind of person who works hard to save money, so he has no savings.Simply, he sold a 70-square-meter piece of land in the town that was still valuable at home to a fellow villager for "400 yuan".

Don't underestimate the 400 yuan.The price level at that time was indeed not high. With 400 yuan in hand, I could complete the wedding for the eldest son "Zhou Jizheng".

After marrying the daughter-in-law for the eldest son, the father lived happily for a few more years.

Life at home is getting more and more stressful.Especially the youngest son is getting older day by day, and he doesn't like reading.It looks like a member of the rural early marriage group who intends to get married at the age of 16.

An extremely lazy father, how can he still have the ability to prepare money for the marriage of his youngest son "Zhou Ji"?

As a father, in fact, he has never been able to save his son's wedding money.Therefore, to be more precise, it was when the father did not have a second piece of land in Market Town to sell in exchange for the wedding money of the youngest son.

The youngest son got close to some "problem girls" very early on, and they had a heated fight.

Some of them were willing to marry him.But dowry must be required.To hold a formal and grand wedding.

The younger son is idle and has no ability.I couldn't get the money for the wedding, so I forced my father to find a way to raise money every day.Either by borrowing or on credit, the "Lao Tzu" has to prepare the wedding money for him.Only when a son has a family can he establish a career, and only when he has a family can he pass on the family line... Isn't that the responsibility that a father should bear? !
The youngest son is tall and big, and has a violent temper. It is said that he beat his father because of the quarrel.

As a father, he was forced to do nothing, and he was super face-saving, and his psychological quality was extremely low. He couldn't hold it under the huge pressure.

On a dark and windy night, the father swallowed a pill directly, and he didn't survive that night, so he died simply.

In this way, the marriage of the youngest son "Zhou Ji" became more and more difficult.He often didn't know that before his family was poor, the woman he had "sworn to each other" with him, didn't even bother to leave a message for Zhou Jiji, and went directly to "climb another branch".

It was at that time that Zhou Jiji was introduced and had a blind date with the later "Mother of Zhou Zhong".

Because Zhou Zhong's mother was pregnant before marriage, her requirements for choosing a spouse dropped again and again.In the end, even men from poor backgrounds like "Zhou Ji" did not reject "marrying down".

But there is a most basic requirement: Zhou Ji must let her give birth to the innocent child in her womb freely.

"Zhou Ji" nodded and agreed to her various "unreasonable demands", and "Zhou Zhong's mother" finally married into the poor Zhou family.

"Zhou Zhong's mother" also made an agreement with "Zhou Ji" that the child in her womb must be born.After she got married, she couldn't ask her to get rid of it.

Zhou Ji knew that the situation in his family was bad. If it weren't for this kind of "oil bottle" woman, there would probably be no woman in his life who would marry him.

Zhou Ji endured the "shameful conditions", and finally got married with very little money.

Five months after his wife married into Zhou's family, she gave birth to a son named "Zhou Zhong".

Zhou Ji kept his promise. During the months of pregnancy, his wife did not ask her not to have this child. ,

According to the situation at that time, it was far from going to the hospital for pregnancy check-ups "regularly" like later generations.In the end, the baby was not born in the hospital.is at home.Hiring a "midwife" is considered relatively "upscale".

The mother and son gave birth to the child safely.The mother specially named the eldest son "Zhou Zhong".

But this is not my "species", so what if it's my surname?Looking at his eldest son "Zhou Zhong", Zhou Ji felt oppressed and uncomfortable.

So under the repeated insistence of "Zhou Ji", while this "Zhou Zhong" was still young, he was sent to be raised by a family that could not give birth to a boy.

It was said to be "given away" for adoption, but in fact, Zhou Ji also received several thousand yuan from the "adopter" in the name of receiving the "nutrition fee" from his wife for giving birth.

The thousands of dollars, whether you call it something else, or simply say it’s money for selling the children, in short, "Daer Zhou Zhong" created a value of several thousand dollars for Zhou Jiji at that time.

I made a few thousand dollars, which was considered a huge sum of money in those days.

If you collect a few thousand or ten thousand pieces by yourself and use them to build a house, you can really build a two-story ordinary small building.

Don't think it's an exaggeration.In Liang Teng Village, there were businessmen who got rich first, and they built a small building of 1 square meters with more than 200 yuan.Of course, the cost of decoration is extra.

With a windfall of several thousand yuan, Zhou Jiji was a little bit smug.

Zhou Jiji made the decision and used the thousands of dollars to buy a well-known "Jialing" motorcycle at that time.

In that special era, any car that looked like "bad wood" would dare to sell it for 10,000+.For example, the "Jetta" and "Santana" that are all over the street now, whose prices have dropped to tens of thousands of yuan, sold directly for 10,000+ in those days.

They are not affordable by ordinary people.You know, for ordinary people who have a fixed job, their monthly salary is around 200 yuan.If you want to buy a small car worth 20 yuan, you will not eat or drink for the rest of your life, and if you save your salary, it will not be enough.

As someone who lived through that era, Liang Teng knew that investing in real estate at that time was the most sensible, farsighted, and luckiest.Investing in small cars in that era was the most stupid and least valuable. In the end, 80.00% of car buyers would regret it.

As mentioned above, in those days, a decent small building could be built for only one-tenth of the price of a small car.

But in today's era, the whole thing is turned upside down.

Nowadays, it costs hundreds of thousands to build an ordinary small western-style building, and it costs tens of thousands to buy an ordinary economical and practical car.

So people who have come from that era know that a small car is the least valuable thing, and it is a complete consumable.

After sitting for ten years, it is not worth one-tenth of the car purchase price that year.

As for building a house, the money spent at that time, after more than ten years, the value of the house can appreciate ten times, which is still relatively small.

Zhou Ji is obviously not the kind of visionary and far-sighted person.

At that time, with a huge sum of several thousand yuan in hand, I only wanted to buy a "Jialing" motorcycle.

Zhou Ji has a relative and friend who works as a teacher and earns more than 200 yuan a month. He has saved money for several years and only bought a "Jialing" last year.All the people in the village are envious.

Zhou Ji insisted on buying this motorcycle. Of course, there was a subconscious intention to "comparison" and show off.I don’t understand, just look at the young people nowadays who are keen to spend more than [-] yuan on a joint venture “Civic” car, and you can understand Zhou Jiji’s thoughts back then.

Today's young people would rather buy a "Civic" in order to pick up girls.At that time, Zhou Jiji was the "Jialing" motorcycle that he won with "full payment".It's so majestic.

Of course, Zhou Jiji would not admit to death that he bought a branded motorcycle to "pretend".He justly claimed that it was for "passengers" to earn some living expenses.

It's a pity that in the last week, I didn't make any money by relying on motorcycle "passengers".

Even the daily expenses of the family, the money he earns, is not enough to subsidize.I can only wait for my wife to recover and go to work in a factory to earn money to support the family.

In the following years, Zhou Jiji and his wife had two sons.One is named "Zhou Wei" and the other is named "Zhou Meng".

There are only three children like this. After selling the eldest son "Zhou Zhong", now there are only two left.Zhou Ji drove a motorcycle as a passenger and could not earn enough money to support his two sons.

The wife works part-time in the factory, which is already very hard work, and the husband at home has no skills and can't make money. Seeing that the two sons are getting older day by day, there is nothing they can do, and there is no way to complete the marriage for the sons.

By the age of 18, a large number of people in the countryside will get married and have children at this time.But his family was so poor that he couldn't afford a wife at all.

Thinking about his tragic past again, how did the eldest son Zhou Zhong live in other people's homes?Zhou's mother has been depressed all year round and can't think about it. Finally, one day, she went crazy in the factory where she worked.

Everyone in the factory panicked.Quickly controlled her, and then called her family members, that is, Zhou Ji, Zhou Wei, and Zhou Meng.Tell Zhou's family to take the mad Zhou mother home quickly.

I took it back.

After slowly recuperating, Zhou's mother's condition gradually improved.

At this time, Zhou Zhong, the eldest son sent out by the Zhou family, also returned to his hometown to "seek relatives".

It turned out that the infertile couple who brought Zhou Zhong up for adoption encountered a serious car accident after raising Zhou Zhong until he was 20 years old.

When her adoptive mother was dying, she told him the whole story of Zhou Zhong's life experience.And tell him where his hometown is?Who is the biological mother in the village?
After burying his adoptive parents, Zhou Zhong took the time to go to the countryside to "seek relatives".

As a result, I saw a biological mother who was still recovering after going crazy due to excessive pressure.

His eldest son came to visit him, and Zhou's mother received the best comfort and "treatment" for her madness, and soon got better.

The mother and son recognize each other, and it is another scene of mixed sorrow and joy.

Mother Zhou found out after asking. The eldest son is now working in a town in a neighboring county. Although his adoptive parents are gone, he earns money and can support himself.

Moreover, the eldest son "Zhou Zhong" also married a wife and had children.

Being able to marry a wife does not mean that Zhou Zhong's occupation is so high-income, but that his adoptive parents are from the "Emperor Capital" family, and a "siheyuan" was handed down from his ancestors.That stuff is worth a fortune.

There are women who are willing to marry "Zhou Zhong" because of the fixed assets of a "siheyuan" in the house.

Seeing that the eldest son is doing so well, Zhou's mother is very relieved, and naturally he is no longer sick.

After recognizing his relatives that year, the eldest son went to visit his mother in the countryside every year like visiting relatives.

If the little days go on like this, it will be peaceful.

Zhou Jiji borrowed tens of thousands of yuan from his elder son who "give it out" to build a one-story house in his hometown. After living in it for a few years, he suffered from liver cancer due to excessive drinking.

It didn't last two years, and he died.

He left his wife and two sons Zhou Wei and Zhou Meng.

The marriage of the two younger sons has never been settled.The second son, Zhou Wei, is okay, he is willing to do hard work, and is motivated. He will not worry about not being able to find a wife in the future, and he is not afraid of not being able to support his wife and children.

As for the third son Zhou Meng, he is idle and lazy, just like his father "Zhou Ji".But this "Zhou Meng" is quite destined to be a daughter.It is estimated that the appearance is still in the eyes of today's girls.During the years when the second brother was busy working, the third brother had several girlfriends.It even made one of them's belly bigger.

In the end, he didn't have the money to deal with it himself.I had to rely on my second brother to borrow money from my eldest brother Zhou Zhong to settle the matter.

His eldest brother, Zhou Zhong, doesn't trust Zhou Meng at all.Zhou Zhong was willing to borrow money only when his second elder brother Zhou Wei, who was hardworking and willing to work, came forward.In the end, the second brother helped the third brother repay the borrowed money.

Under such circumstances, it is impossible for Zhou Zhong to completely ignore the two "brothers" who are still unmarried.It is even more impossible to ignore the aging biological mother!
Zhou Zhong actually had to "take care" of the three families.

One is his own family, he has a wife and two young children to support.One is the wife's natal family, and he often has to help.There is another family, which is the family of his biological mother and two "half-brothers". No matter how bad this family was for him in the past, he has entered a good family "by a blessing in disguise".Therefore, the biological mother also has to take care of her from time to time.

In short, with so many relatives to take care of, Zhou Zhong is of course under great pressure.

In this case, Zhou Zhong's wife also suffered from chronic "uremia" last year, and the expenses were getting bigger and bigger.

There is only one "siheyuan" in Zhou Zhong's house that is the most valuable.In recent years, the price of "siheyuan" in the "imperial capital" has skyrocketed, from hundreds of thousands to tens of millions more than ten years ago, to several million or tens of millions now.Zhou Zhong had long wanted to sell the "siheyuan" he had inherited.

If he doesn't sell it, if the price of the "siheyuan" suddenly drops to half of the current price in a few years, wouldn't he suffer a heavy loss? !
