Rebirth 96: Peak of Power

In a private house on the outskirts of Jianghai County!

Yao Cheng's family, plus his father-in-law's family, had already arrived at his home.

The scattered firecracker fragments at the door also told people that there was a happy event in Yao Cheng's house today.

Xu Xiaofeng!

Yao Cheng's wife is a female worker in the county textile factory. Although she is not very good, they both work in the county!

Yao Cheng also has a son, who is seven years old this year. Except that his work is not going well, everything else is good.

Today is Xu Xiaofeng’s 30th birthday. Although there is a saying in Jianghai County that men do three and women do four!

In other words, men generally do it in their 30s, while women do it in their 40s!

Therefore, Xu Xiaofeng was 30 years old, and she didn’t bring any relatives or friends. She just had a lot of fun and get-togethers with her two families!

In itself, birthdays are usually celebrated at noon, but today because Yao Cheng's leave could not be approved, it was temporarily changed to the evening.

However, the rituals that should be held at noon are naturally indispensable. They are all from the countryside, and they are very particular about these.

It's just that the bustle outside the door is in sharp contrast to the lonely look of those inside!

"Mom and Dad, it's my birthday today, so we won't argue with them..."

Xu Xiaofeng comforted the parents on both sides, but both Yao Cheng's parents and Xu Xiaofeng's own parents had faces filled with indignation.

Obviously, they were stimulated by something!

"It's too bullying, Xiaofeng, we can't let them bully us no matter what..." Xu Xiaofeng's father, Xu Daguo, also slapped the table angrily.

Xu Xiaofeng's mother hurriedly pulled her aside and said: "Old man, don't make a fuss whenever something happens. Our daughter's family has to live its own life, so don't make it too angry!"

"My father-in-law is right. The old Gao family likes to bully others. The vegetable garden in our backyard was originally dug by our family. Previously, their family said that it was dug up to theirs, but they insisted on removing half of it. We just arrived at that time, so we didn't care about them..." Yao Cheng's father Yao Gengsheng also said angrily.

"Yeah, it's good now. They said that the vegetable garden behind them used to belong to their family, and they actually said that they would all go back. Then our family would have no space to grow vegetables in the future, and we would have to spend a lot of money that year..."

Yao Cheng's mother also said gloomily that they were originally from the countryside.

Although they don't live in the county all year round, they have developed a planting land near Yao Cheng's family.

This kind of thing was not uncommon in small counties in the 90s!

There was no management or anything like that at that time. Anyway, the land acquired by my family was basically cultivated by my family!

Of course!

If the government wants to use this land, you cannot take it by force, otherwise it may use force.

But now, it’s not the government that wants to use it, but the neighbors across the street who are taking advantage of their new arrival and want to grab it openly!

"Mom and Dad, please calm down. We have just been here three or four years ago, and they have been here for decades. But we won't talk about today's matter today. After all, today is my birthday. If you have anything to do, tell them tomorrow. Say it..." Xu Xiaofeng quickly comforted her.

"Hmph, can't you see? They came here specially at noon just to find a way to cause trouble. I guess they will definitely attack you today..." Xu Daguo seemed to be quite experienced.

Yao Gengsheng nodded and said, "Who says it's not the case? Two days ago, they heard that our Xiaofeng was going to have a birthday, so they said they wanted to give us a good look."

"Dad, Yao Cheng also said to try not to cause any big conflicts about this matter." Xu Xiaofeng whispered.

"If it weren't for the fact that our Yao Cheng works in the county, I would have gone to fight them with a hoe..." Yao Cheng's mother also said with fierceness.

But even though they said so, it seemed from the faces of these people that they were just talking!

"Dad, I didn't want to tell you about this originally. Yao Cheng told me a few days ago that Gao Yuan, the son of the Gao family next door, is working as the director of the Bureau of Land and Resources. I don't know what the specific position is... …”

The reason why Xu Xiaofeng kept suppressing her anger was not because she didn't dare to speak up after being bullied.

But she also knows how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. Others don't know what her husband is like in the county. Doesn't she, the wife, know?

It was also because I was ignorant that I had a quarrel with Yao Cheng the night before the most important event in my husband's life!

As a result, Yao Cheng drank in depression and lost an opportunity to be appreciated by the leader the next day.

Although Xu Xiaofeng later found out about this incident, and Yao Cheng did not blame her, since that time, Xu Xiaofeng's whole personality has become much gentler.

Perhaps for Yao Cheng, this is what he gains and loses!

"That little Gao got promoted?" When Yao Gengsheng heard this, his originally angry expression turned into a hint of embarrassment!

"The Bureau of Land and Resources has the power..." Xu Daguo seemed to understand a little.

"So, parents, please don't be impulsive. As long as the Gao family doesn't bully others too much, we don't have to quarrel with them. It's enough for us to have some space to grow in the vegetable patch in the backyard."

Although Xu Xiaofeng was unwilling in her heart, she also didn't want to cause trouble for Yao Cheng anymore.

"Then...then listen to Xiaofeng..."

After all, these old people had not seen much of the world. After listening to Xu Xiaofeng's words, although everyone was still unconvinced, they had already bowed to reality.

As the saying goes, the people do not fight with the officials!

This is the case in the minds of their generation.

Xu Xiaofeng looked at her parents' appearance. Although she felt a little disappointed, she still held on.

It was so easy to last until night!

The rapid ringing of bicycle bells at the door of Yao's house made Xu Xiaofeng feel more at ease.

Seeing a familiar figure walking over with a smile on his face and carrying something in his hand, Xu Xiaofeng felt warm in his heart...
