After hoarding goods and being reborn, the charming educated youth was pampered by a rough man in th

The RV entered the village at around two in the afternoon. Everyone was probably resting, so I didn't see anyone along the way.

They came to the yard of their former home and parked the car.

Jiang Ning slowly got out of the car with a surprised expression.

Along the way, they saw that every household had built a two-story house, painted white on the outside. The green glazed tiles on the roof gleamed in the sun, and the decorations of two dragons playing with a pearl looked lifelike.

But his own home was not demolished and was still exactly the same as before. Even the original mud house, after being washed away by rain, was left with only ruins and adobe bricks, and no one had touched it.

The vegetable garden next to the house was tidy. Each variety of vegetables was fenced off and paved with cement. The entire vegetable garden was clean except for the soil under the vegetables.

Lin Chen glanced at Jiang Ning, then walked towards the open door.

Just as they were about to step over the threshold, a little boy about three years old came out and asked them who they were with his ignorant eyes.

"Hello little friend, are the adults at home here?"

Just as he finished speaking, a woman with half black and half white hair came out of the house.

"Yes, yes, yes, who are you looking for?"

The woman recognized Jiang Ning immediately when she saw him, and then she shouted into the house,

"Ergou, hurry up, look who's back?"

Zhao Ergou jumped up from the bed with a start, came to the door, and when he saw Lin Chen and Jiang Ning, he smiled so hard that his teeth were exposed.

"I was wondering why my eyelids kept twitching today. Turns out you guys are really back!"

Zhao Ergou quickly asked his wife to move stools for them.

"Ergou." Lin Chen didn't rush to sit down, but walked up and hugged Ergou.

Zhao Ergou, who is usually carefree, had red eyes for some reason.

"Brother Chen, I miss you so much. You've been gone for 30 years, and my grandson is old enough to help with cooking."

As he spoke, he greeted the little boy and said hello to Jiang Ning and the others.

"Goudan, come and say hello."

Zhao Ergou's wife Cuihua rolled her eyes at him.

"Speak more politely. Our dog has a name. His name is Zhao Wenzhuo."

Goudan timidly called them grandpa and grandma.

Jiang Ning stroked his hand and took out a candy from his pocket and gave it to him.

"Zhao Wenzhuo is a good name."

Zhao Ergou and his friends still retain the local custom of serving sesame bean tea to guests.

They drank and talked about the situation here.

Lin Chen was very puzzled as to why they had not built a new house. After all, they had sent a lot of money home over the years.

Zhao Ergou touched his head and laughed.

"Brother Chen, I just think that all those buildings look the same, and our old house has its own characteristics, and I'm used to living here. Besides, I'm afraid that when you come back, you won't even recognize the door."

Lin Chen: "Then your children have all started families, right? Why is only your grandson here?"

Zhao Ergou: "They all got married and thought the house here was shabby, so I gave them money and let them buy a house in the county town.

Fortunately, I bought the house early. Now the price has gone through the roof. Houses in the county town are 5,000 yuan per square meter. Money is really worthless in this world."

Lin Chen asked them, since prices are so high now, do they have enough money to spend?

"That's enough. How much can a few of us eat? My son found a job in the county and can earn several thousand yuan a month. He also said he would take us to live there, but I didn't agree and asked him to let me take care of the child."

“Thanks to your support, we have built a primary school in our village, and children from nearby villages are now attending the village primary school.

If it weren't for your financial support, our village wouldn't have been built so well!"

Since Lin Fugui stepped down, Chayuan Village has had a new village chief. With sufficient funds, the village chief has led everyone to do a lot of practical work.

However, now all the strong laborers in the village have gone out to find work, and most of those left at home are the elderly and children.

The children also aim to get into big cities, and no one wants to stay in the countryside.

After chatting for an afternoon, Jiang Ning and his wife learned a lot about the current situation in the village.

After dinner, the two of them walked hand in hand by the lake.

The Tuanjie Lake behind the village has clear water. When the breeze blows, the water ripples and you can see the aquatic plants inside.

The air by the lake is also very fresh. After a few breaths, I feel relaxed and happy.

After more than two months of sandstorms at the border, this kind of landscape instantly relieves one's fatigue.

"Our hometown is still the best!" Lin Chen picked up a stone and skipped it into the water.

The stone floated by the lake for six times and finally sank to the bottom of the water.

Looking far away, Jiang Ning saw the small island in the middle of the lake and said excitedly:

"Do you still remember that island? Yu Xiaofeng wanted to burn us to death there. Now it looks like there are lush trees there. It's a nice place to relax."

Lin Chen followed her gaze, took her hand and walked over there.

"My uncle and aunt passed away a long time ago, and they didn't even see the prosperity of today."

Thinking of the people and things in the past, they couldn't help but sigh.

It is said that Lin Tao left some money to Yu Xiaofeng, and she went to the capital to see her son for the last time. But in the end, she was hit and killed by a car because she could not avoid it when crossing the road.

The police found Lin Baojia based on the ID card she had on her, and gave him her ashes, Lin Tao's money, and the compensation.

The total amount of money was more than 100,000.

For a time, Lin Baojia became a rich man in the village.

Many women actually came to him and asked to marry him.

In the end, Lin Baoguo couldn't resist the temptation and had sex with a woman.

The woman didn't really want to marry him, but after sleeping with him, she started crying.

Her son directly threatened to call the police and asked him to pay 100,000 yuan in compensation.

Lin Baojia has always been a cowardly person. After being frightened and threatened by them, he actually gave the 100,000 yuan to them.

I saved tens of thousands of dollars, but the money was gradually spent by borrowing a little from this person and taking advantage of a little from that person.

In the end, he starved to death.

Zhao Ergou is not a philanthropist who would not give alms just because he saw that he had no food to eat.

Besides, the two families had no contact with each other. Although they were only a few steps away, by the time they smelled the stench of Lin Baojia's corpse, he had already starved to death for several days.

Now, the grass on his grave has grown very tall.

The two were walking by the lake and met many villagers. When they saw them coming back, they all came over to say hello.

Before they had a chance to work, the news of their return spread throughout the village like wildfire.

At night, their house was surrounded by three layers of people inside and outside, and no one could get out.

After thirty years of ups and downs, many of these once familiar faces no longer look the same as they did back then.

But when we talk about what happened back then, everyone still remembers it!

The best wedding banquet they had ever had in their lives was hosted by their family.

"I can't believe you guys still remember to come back after all these years!"

Someone lamented.

While they were chatting, a middle-aged woman with short hair pushed through the crowd and came in. When she saw Jiang Ning, she screamed in surprise.
