Siheyuan: Struggle in the Red Era

Chen Zhaodi discovered her space after traveling through time.

Because she is usually too busy and tired, she can basically clean up the space for an hour at most every day.

Fortunately, her efforts paid off. After a month, she finally managed to clean up the space. She estimated the size of the space to be about one hectare and fifteen acres. There was a pond of about two acres in the middle, but unfortunately there were no fish, shrimps or crabs in it. After cleaning, she found a lot of water chestnuts and lotus roots, which tasted quite sweet.

When she cleaned it before, she didn't pay much attention to it because she was short of time. Now that she had plenty of time, she looked through it carefully and found that this space had probably been carefully taken care of before. The whole space is actually divided into zones. There are forty or fifty "wild" fruit trees planted on the outer border, and a circle of spices and tea plants planted next to the fruit trees. Then on one side, there is a large area of ​​tall and dense grass, which is probably used to raise livestock. Across the pond, there is a small area of ​​less than one acre of land on the ridge on the other side that was almost overgrown with weeds and wild vegetables. It is probably used to grow vegetables. Now the weeds and wild vegetables have been pulled out, and there are dozens of sparsely developed vegetables growing on it.

Around the pond, there is a small piece of irrigated land that was probably used to grow rice in the past. Now, after the weeds were pulled out, only a few rice plants are left. Outside, there are only a few wheat plants left after the weeds were pulled out. In addition, there is a simple barn built with earth bricks and wood, and a small two-story brick house with a stove inside. The pot has not rusted yet.

After checking the space clearly, Chen Zhaodi began to think about what to do.

The original plan of this space was enough to feed one person, and now she was too young to do anything, so she didn't plan to change it. So now, in addition to pruning the fruit trees, she was looking for some vegetable seeds to plant, some livestock to raise, and some wheat and rice seeds to plant. Once all these were planted and raised, she would have enough food and meat to ensure her body's nutrition - what the hell!

All kinds of farm tools, vegetable seeds, grain seeds, livestock chicks, ducklings, and fish fry, which one doesn't cost money to buy? But does she have money? She doesn't! So what's the point of these plans?

After thinking for a long time, she realized that without money, she could do nothing. Chen Zhaodi had no choice but to go and see if the 40 or 50 fruit trees had any fruit. If there were, she would pick some and sell them. If they didn't sell, she would exchange them. If there were no fruit or she couldn't sell it, she would go and dig lotus roots. No matter how low the yield was in a two-acre pond, she could dig hundreds of kilograms of lotus roots. If she sold them, she would at least make some money.

She just couldn't believe that even if she already had space, she could still be suffocated to death by lack of money.

So she was busy again and finally felt a lot more at ease. Although 80% of these fruit trees were southern species, there were at least eight or nine apple, pear and jujube trees in total. The picked apples, pears and jujubes could still be sold outside. She marked the various tree species, filled her stomach with the fruits, picked two lychees and put them on the stove, estimated the time, it was about seven or eight hours, and everything that needed to be solved outside should have been solved, so she decided to leave the space.

Her guess was correct.

Yan Bugui sent her to the hospital for a check-up. Apart from severe malnutrition, there was nothing wrong with her body. The only serious external injuries were a bump on her forehead and a pinch on her philtrum. The other bruises on her body could be smoothed out with rubbing. The cause of her coma was unclear.

After all kinds of examinations had been done and various ways of waking up had been tried, and the patient still did not wake up, Yan Bugui and his wife were almost scared to death.

So many people in the yard saw it at that time. Chen Zhaodi fainted after being beaten by the third aunt. As for why she couldn't wake up after being beaten, the hospital has not yet found out the reason. The doctor couldn't be sure whether she had brain damage or whether it was related to the beating. So, this must be the fault of the third aunt. After all, she was the only one who beat Chen Zhaodi.

Therefore, as soon as the test results came out, someone went to inform Chen Datou and his wife. Yan Bugui was so fast that he didn't have time to stop them. He could only hope in his heart that it was Chen Datou who came to solve the problem.

Chen Datou is a stay-at-home guy who usually waits for work at a nearby grain station. His wife Hu Meihua was recruited to work at the National Cotton No. 1 Cotton Mill in the first half of the year. The mill is about to start production, so it is a busy time now.

After the couple was notified, Chen Datou rushed over. Hu Meihua said that she was busy and could not take leave, so she asked Chen Datou to take care of it.

Yan Bugui, who was originally extremely anxious, was relieved to see his wish come true and Chen Datou came from the Chen family. After all, Hu Meihua was difficult to deal with. If he really asked her to come to negotiate, he might lose everything. Chen Datou usually didn't take Chen Zhaodi seriously and beat her up for no reason. Even if the third aunt beat her this time and she couldn't wake up for a while, it shouldn't be a big problem.

It's not a big problem, but it will be a bit hard on your wallet.

The two of them argued about the compensation issue for most of the day. In the middle, they went to the doctor and consulted a lot of people about whether Chen Zhaodi could wake up, when she could wake up, and whether she would have other problems after waking up. After still getting no answers, Chen Datou quoted a huge number. Yan Bugui bargained hard, pleading with him as neighbors and using certain facts to support the huge number. He slammed Chen Datou's neck straightened with anger, but Yan Bugui still refused to raise the price.

Finally, Chen Datou threatened to report to the police and let the third aunt eat peanuts, and asked the street office to revoke Yan Bugui's status as the third uncle. Yan Bugui had to compromise.

After a long tug of war, the two parties finally reached an agreement: Yan Bugui paid Chen Datou two million yuan in one lump sum (the first set of currency, the unit of measurement divided by ten thousand is the unit of measurement we are familiar with. For the convenience of reading, all subsequent units of measurement are measured in the second set). Chen Datou would not pursue the issue of the third aunt beating people. After Chen Zhaodi, whether to treat her, how to treat her, and whether she can be cured are all the Chen family's business and have nothing to do with Yan Bugui and his wife.

Yan Bugui and his wife, whose wallets were bleeding profusely, went home with gloomy faces and hands covering their chests. The other neighbors also dispersed early, as they had watched the fun and were still waiting for Chen Datou to keep some food for them.

As soon as everyone here left, Chen Datou also left Chen Zhaodi.

The doctor said that it is currently uncertain whether Chen Zhaodi can wake up and she needs to be hospitalized for observation. If he doesn't leave now, does he have to stay and pay for her hospitalization and treatment?

If it weren't for Hu Meihua's protection, he would have killed her long ago, and would not have left her at home to be an eyesore. This time, Yan Bugui did a good thing and helped him remove this thorn.

So, Chen Zhaodi was left alone in the ward.
