Siheyuan: The road to counterattack for the little transparent

No wonder people often say that it is nice to take shelter under a big tree. The big tree in the yard of Lin Donglai’s uncle’s house fully illustrates this point.

A few people sat under the tree, drinking tea and chatting, cracking some melon seeds from time to time, feeling the occasional gusts of wind, feeling extremely comfortable.

Lin Donglai suddenly thought that if he also had such a yard in the countryside, he could work and earn money in the city during the week, and then go back to the countryside with his sister on weekends.

You can also plant such fruit trees in your own yard, build a grape trellis, make a small bed and a long table in the yard, drink tea during the day, and lie down and watch the stars at night.

There is no pollution in the countryside at this time, and you might even see fireflies. It’s a beautiful scene to imagine.

Thinking of this, he asked the old man, "Uncle, is there any place to build a house in our village?"

My uncle was stunned and asked in surprise: "Dongla, you want to build a house in the village? It will cost a lot of money."

"It's not easy for you to make some money as a buyer. You have to save it for marrying a wife and having children in the future. Listen to your uncle and don't spend it recklessly, understand?"

As expected of my uncle, he always considers me in everything and has thought about things so far in the future.

Lin Donglai couldn't help but laugh: "Uncle, I'm still young and haven't gotten married yet, so I wanted to ask if you can still build a house in your village."

"If the village agrees to let me come back and build a house, how much will it cost? I will go back and work hard to earn money, and build a small courtyard like yours."

The uncle shook his head and said, "Silly boy, why are you going back to the countryside? Whether the country people can have enough food to eat depends entirely on the harvest from the fields. If the harvest is not good, even having enough food to eat will be a problem."

Then, seeing that Sha Zhu didn't notice, he lowered his voice and said, "Uncle, I'm telling you the truth. Everyone is trying their best to get in touch with the city. Just look at your third uncle."

Lin Donglai thought about it and felt that what his uncle said made sense. This was indeed an idea that he had come up with on the spur of the moment and was not mature enough.

He only went back to Zhangjia Village twice. He didn't even recognize the faces of the villagers and didn't know whether the local customs were simple and honest. It was really a bit careless.

"But speaking of which, Donglai, your mother did have a piece of land in the village before she got married. It's not far from my home."

After the eldest uncle finished speaking, he pointed to the right side of the yard and said, "Hey! It's right there. The village redistributed the land, and it was only preserved after your third uncle and I strongly requested it. Now it's just lying there, abandoned."

Lin Donglai followed his uncle's finger and finally understood why this place, not far from where everyone lived when he entered the village, was a wasteland.

"Uncle, do you think anyone in the village would object if I came back and used this land to build a house and a yard?"

"Dare! As long as the Third Brother and I are still alive, no one will dare to covet this land. You are Qiuxiang's son, so it is natural for you to inherit her land."

"Do you remember the family your uncle took you to buy eggs with last time? His name is Dali. He is the most talkative person in our village, but he can't argue with me and your third uncle."

After saying that, my uncle shook the fan in his hand and laughed.

If it weren't for what his uncle said, Lin Donglai would not have known that his words carried so much weight in the village. He couldn't help but hold on to a glimmer of hope.

However, after my uncle's reminder, and thinking that I have only been working for a short time and my foundation is not solid, I think I still have to plan this matter slowly.

Sha Zhu waited and waited at the gate of the courtyard, but still did not see Lingzi and her parents going to the fields. After asking Lin Dong's coming time several times, he shouted that he wanted to go back.

It was already four o'clock in the afternoon when Lin Donglai arrived. The sun was no longer so scorching, so he talked to his uncle and uncle, called his sister and wanted to go back to the city.

The little girl held the puppy with white paws and black fur and looked at him pitifully: "Brother, uncle, I want to take Hei Dou back with me."

The uncle laughed out loud and said, "Donyi, I promised to give you this puppy to take back with you. I won't break my promise, don't worry."

Hearing what her uncle said, Lin Dongyi hugged the puppy and was overjoyed. She turned to the female dog lying at her feet and said, "Mom, don't worry, I will take good care of Hei Dou."

"I'll bring it back to see you when I have time, okay?"

The bitch seemed to understand what the little girl said. After chirping a few times, she went back to her nest and lay down to sleep.

The aunt packed two strings of dried mushrooms and a small bag of peanuts and put them in Lin Donglai's hands: "Donlai, my uncle and aunt don't have anything good to give you, so don't be disgusted."

Lin Donglai originally wanted to turn it down, but then he thought that it was the old man's kindness and he would feel bad if he refused them, so he accepted it.

The old couple felt relieved after seeing them, and when they saw them off, they reluctantly said, "Dongla, Dongyi, please come back often when you have time."

Sha Zhu on the side said, "Don't worry, old man. I'll come next weekend and bring you a bottle of wine."

On the way back, he would pass by the wasteland that his uncle mentioned. Lin Donglai stopped to observe it. The land was long and narrow, and could at least build three houses and leave a yard.

He calculated that based on the current prices, it would cost at least several hundred dollars to renovate the land and build a house.

Lin Donglai's savings were enough for this money, but he was worried that spending too much money at once would make it too conspicuous in the village and easily attract envy, so he decided to wait until later.

Only when you are strong enough can you withstand the gossips of others.

After the few of them pushed the cart out of the path, Lin Donglai carried his sister and the puppy, while Sha Zhu was assigned to carry the bag, and they pedaled back towards the city together.

As soon as he pushed the car into the yard, Yan Bugui came to greet him: "Hey! Donglai and Zhuzi are back together. Where did you go today?"

"Zhu Zi, Xu Damao has been waiting for you for a long time today, so you better be careful." After saying that, he winked at Sha Zhu.

"How can I be afraid of this kid Xu Damao? Uncle Third, don't worry, nothing will happen." Sha Zhu said carelessly as he pushed the car into the yard.

Seeing Lin Dongyi holding a puppy in her arms, which looked very cute, Yan Bugui smiled and said, "Dongyi, where did this puppy come from?"

"My uncle gave it to me, Third Uncle, it's called Black Bean!"

"It's a blessing for this puppy to come to your house. If it were sent to Uncle Three's house, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to afford to raise it."

Xu Damao had been sitting in the yard waiting for most of the day and was extremely tired. Just as he returned to the house and lay down, he heard Sha Zhu's voice coming from the front yard and immediately jumped up from the bed.

When he angrily rushed to the middle court, he happened to meet Sha Zhu and immediately yelled at him: "Sha Zhu! Do you still have any shame? When did I agree to lend you my bike?"

"Also, how did you get the key to my bicycle? Did you break into the house and steal it?"

When has Sha Zhu ever been soft on Xu Damao? Even though he was in the wrong, he still cursed, "Bullshit! Xu Damao, if you keep talking nonsense, I will tear your stinky mouth apart!"
