Wind back to the farm

Chapter 160 One Day of Li Xia and Xiao Zhi

Two thrushes flew over the bamboo garden service area, and found that not only Li's family was in front of his uncle's shop, but Rabin and Zhong Chunqiu were also there. Li Xia remembered that today is the weekend.

The master Zhuyin sat on a small bench, dangling his short legs, and asked Rabin to feed him porridge, while the chubby man only opened his mouth.

Rabin is like an adult, eating a mouthful by himself and feeding Zhong Chunqiu a mouthful, calm and sophisticated, it seems that he often does this.

Li Xia shook his head: "Tsk, gold and precious goods are real little princes, let's see what has been tossed about."

Xiao Zhi couldn't help laughing: "Zhuyin actually has such divinity, if I didn't see it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe it."

The time for serving breakfast to tourists is over, now it's time for the shopkeepers to have their own breakfast.

Uncles and aunts are taking advantage of this gap to prepare mushroom soup stewed in a casserole at noon. On the small stove next to them is a pot of cooked eight-treasure porridge. This is the family's breakfast. Li Chen took a stack of bowls and was preparing to serve the rice.

Li Qu and his son were playing in the nearby stream, while grandma and Su Xing were picking wild vegetables.

Grandpa is putting ears of corn in the big steamer, burning them and preparing to make stuffed pies. One is kneading the dough and the other is mixing the stuffing. The posture is quite professional.

With a thought in Li Xia's mind, Jiaguo turned into liquid gold juice, and fell into the porridge pot the moment Li Chen turned his head to talk to his grandmother, and an invisible strand fell into the big sea bowl shared by Zhong Chunqiu and Rabin.

He picked up another feather and popped it lightly.

A handsome young man in washed jeans and a black T-shirt came out of the woods, jumped over the creek, and happily greeted his family one by one: "Grandma, grandpa, uncle, aunt, brother, sister-in-law..."

Grandma raised her head: "Send grandma another feather?"

Li Xia squatted in front of his grandma, with a sincere smile on his face: "Jiming Ridge is lively, I'll just watch it for a while, and come back to accompany you after I'm done."

Grandma stopped what she was doing: "Little brat, are you really lying to grandma?"

Two thrushes had already flown over the bamboo garden, and came to the sky above a golden forest. The thrush on the left turned to look at the one on the right: "Grandma is real and fake, I can't tell which time she cheated on me and which time it was I really recognized it."

The thrush on the right said: "Actually, she's not sure every time, it's because of your guilty conscience."

Li Xia was helpless: "Okay." He really felt guilty.

He asked again with a very guilty conscience: "I pretended to be Qi Xiuxian, did the four elders really not find out that I was a fake?"

Xiao Zhi said: "No, Qi Xiuxian's family is an outsider to you after all, you are well prepared and pretend to be very attentive; you are very relaxed in front of grandma, and deep down in your heart you are not afraid of being exposed, so grandma could feel it at the beginning. "

Li Xia nodded: "It should be like this."

While talking, Jiming Ridge arrived.

Like the previous two meetings, this meeting was facilitated by Long Lin and Li Daqing's stalking of Ji Lian, because people from Guo's Village also wanted to participate this time, and Li Shu and the two children were extremely disgusted by people from Guo's Village. Therefore, Ji Lian did not arrange the meeting place at his own home today, but in the yard of the Jimingling Village Office.

Li Xia and Xiao Zhi came just in time, Huai Jiang also just arrived, and was listening to Li Daqing introduce their people.

Two thrushes landed on an old elm tree, watching a play leisurely.

Li Daqing pointed to the young people beside him and said: "This is Lu Jianian, who graduated from Jindu University of Science and Technology the year before last, and now works in Huaji Research Institute; They took the lead in drafting the cooperation agreement and the newly stipulated "Villagers' Code of Conduct" together with the young people in the village."

The two young men bowed respectfully to Huaijiang: "Mr. Huai is in charge."

Huaijiang's benevolent grandfather Fan nodded: "Okay, sit down."

Li Daqing also pointed to a forty-something woman beside him, and introduced with a little confidence: "This, this is... Guo, Guo Jiyuan, the original... that... village office..."

Seeing Huaijiang's gradually changing face, Li Daqing's voice became smaller and smaller.

Guo Jiyuan took half a step forward, and said to himself, "I used to be the director of the Guoshi Village Office, but I am no longer the director."

She pulled the young girl by her side: "This is Guo Tingyu, the new head of the village office elected by our village on Monday.

Two weeks ago, Tingyu publicly proposed to run for the director of the village office with me through the big loudspeaker in the village. "

The two thrushes exchanged glances: Tsk, this girl is not simple.

Guo Tingyu blushed and bowed to Huaijiang: "Mr. Huai is taking care of you."

Huaijiang's mature and friendly uncle Fan smiled: "Hello, Director Guo."

Guo Tingyu was obviously relieved, and then looked at Guo Jiyuan.

Guo Jiyuan looked at Huaijiang and continued: "Mr. Huai, my brother is a scumbag. He is domineering in our village. People in the village dare not mess with him, so he has become more and more mischievous. A few years ago, he played rogues with your farm again, which adds to your troubles." A lot of trouble, today I apologize to you on his behalf."

"I'm sorry." Guo Jiyuan bowed to Huaijiang, straightened up, his eyes were red, "I know, it's useless for me to say sorry for what my brother did, but I don't want to make the whole village feel sorry for him. Follow the victim, so today, even though I know I am not welcome, I still follow.

My brother has been punished now. His right leg is completely immobile and will be amputated soon. He will never come back in the future. As long as he is not around, other people in our village will stop doing things like blocking roads and touching porcelain. We will not open our mouths and make unreasonable demands after you agree to incorporate our village into Fenghui Farm. We promise to obey the arrangements of the farm just like the people in Jiming Ridge and Huxian Ridge. "

Huaijiang said blankly: "You said that Guo Zengyuan would never come back again. Is there any basis?"

Guo Jiyuan was about to speak, but Ji Lian spoke first, and he called everyone to sit down and speak.

Huaijiang sat first, and the others took their seats one by one after Ji Lian's greeting.

Huaijiang looked at Guo Jiyuan.

Guo Jiyuan said: "Ge Liao, who had a dispute with my brother at the beginning, seems to have become an employee of your farm. Is he still there?"

Huaijiang: "Yes."

Guo Jiyuan said: "Then, if you ask him, you will know that my brother will definitely not come back."

Huaijiang frowned: "What do you mean?"

Guo Jiyuan said: "After Tingyu became the village head, I went to my brother once and forced him to promise that if he returned to the village, he would not harm the villagers and your farm again. He ignored me at first, but then I pushed him into a hurry. , was furious, and listening to what he said, it seemed that he had an agreement with Ge Liao that he would never go back to Guo’s Village and a few nearby villages, but I don’t know the specifics, he was too fierce at the time, I don’t know Dare to ask."

Huaijiang took out his mobile phone and pretended to make a call: "Ge Liao, go to the Jimingling Village Office, right now."

In less than half a minute, Ge Liao, dressed in employee uniform and looking like a white-collar elite, stood in front of Huaijiang.

Huaijiang asked: "Before you came to the farm, you had a dispute with Guo Zengyuan. He hasn't been back to Guo's Village in the past few years. Just now Ms. Guo, oh, is Guo Zengyuan's younger sister, Ms. Guo Jiyuan. She said that Guo Zengyuan said that he would I will never go back to Guo’s Village and the surrounding villages again, the reason is because of the agreement between you and Guo Zengyuan, that’s probably what it means, is it true?”

Ge Liao's innocent face: "Promise? Me and Guo Zengyuan? No, manager, do you think it's possible? I was just a helpless orphan who had wandered outside for more than ten years before returning home. Guo Zengyuan is so powerful, he can promise me something?"

"Uh...uh...hey..." Sitting between Guo Jiyuan and Guo Tingyu, Guo Youli hesitated to speak, looking very struggling.

He was one of the young people who followed Guo Zengyuan back then. He witnessed Ge Liao being pushed by Guo Jiaxing's son Guo Yongqian and fell to the ground with a scream. He was so angry that he fell ill and took the opportunity to go to Guo's house to play like a drunk, beat and smashed, and he killed Guo Zengyuan quietly, and forced Guo Zengyuan to cast a poisonous curse and never return to Guo's village.

So at this time, Guo Youli really wanted to shout at Ge Liao: "How can you be so pitiful? You beat Guo Zengyuan like a quail, and forced him to swear that he would never return to Qinghe County, otherwise his son would become a missing person." I've seen it all."

But remembering the scene where Ge Liao smiled and inserted the iron stick into Guo Zengyuan's thigh, Guo Youli was timid, and did not dare to stand up to confront Ge Liao.

Huaijiang obviously trusted his employees, he asked, "What's going on?"

Ge Liao said bluntly: "Didn't Guo Zengyuan have someone beat me up and seriously injured me? I demanded compensation from him according to the law. He probably didn't have enough money at the time, so he wanted to pay me for his yard.

Although I was seriously injured and urgently needed money for treatment, I couldn't bear to drive people homeless. Besides, Guo's village is so poor, and the houses in their village are getting worse and worse. I didn't like it, so I said no. His yard, as long as he gives me money.

But Guo Zengyuan said that he had a villa in Jiushang, and he didn’t want to stay in this poor place for a long time. He also said that he bought the villa and spent all his savings and had no money. If I don’t want his house, he will I can only borrow usury to compensate me.

I thought, it's normal for people with villas in Jiushang to want to sell old houses in poor areas, and I can't force people to borrow usury, so I have to promise him to use the yard to pay for the money.

But I'm afraid that he will regret it one day. After all, his mother and sister's family are in Guo's Village. It's understandable for him to want to go home to guard his old mother when he gets older.

But if he repents and forces me to sell the house back with 8 or [-] yuan, I, an orphan without parents, will definitely not be able to offend a local snake like him, and then I will be miserable?

So, I want him to write me a letter, no matter when, he can't force me to sell the house to him again.

People with ability have a big temper. Guo Zengyuan yelled at that time, saying that my heart of a villain judges the belly of a gentleman. He said that Guo Zengyuan's name is known to everyone in a hundred li, and he is a person who spits and nails. Doing that kind of contradictory thing, let alone come back to buy a house, he will not even return to Guo's Village in the future, if he appears on the ground near Guo's Village again in this life, let his son...

That, Guo Zengyuan's casual curse is too poisonous, I don't want to say it, I'm afraid it will be bad for the child, that is, it means to let him die.

I wonder if the agreement that Ms. Guo said is the curse that Guo Zengyuan gambled on. "

Huaijiang looked at Guo Jiyuan.

Guo Jiyuan looked into the distance, took a deep breath, and then, took a deep breath, and... took a deep breath.

A long time ago, she thought that his brother was already a top rascal.

Six years ago, she and the whole village met the real rascal.

Today, she met the ancestors of the scoundrels.

Guo Zengyuan has a fart villa. Jiushang’s villas were all developed before the reform of the household registration system, and all the top rich people in Huayuan Province live in them. Guo Zengyuan and Li Yumei run a small clothing store. You can't even touch the edge of the villa area, okay?The three-bedroom apartment they live in still has more than ten years of loan repayments.

"Maybe." Guo Jiyuan said with difficulty, "I just want to tell Manager Huai that my brother really won't come back again, please tell Master Feng, and ask him to think about us and Brother Longlin and Brother Li in Qinglong Town. their request."

Huaijiang turned to Ge Liao: "That's none of your business, go back to work."

"Hey." Ge Liao turned around obediently.

"no……"

"Hey, who..."

"Hey wait."

As soon as Ge Liao moved, Guo Jiyuan, Guo Tingyu, and Guo Youli stood up at the same time and shouted at Ge Liao.

Ge Liao looked back blankly: "Also, is there anything else?"

The three people in Guo's Village exchanged a helpless look.

The young Guo Tingyu, as the newly appointed leader of the village, asked questions on behalf of everyone: "Well, Mr. Ge... I have read the archives of the village's homesteads. Except for Guo Zengyuan's yard, those old homesteads in our village that have been vacant for a long time, and It seems that the homesteads of the houses that Guo Zengyuan left at the same time are all in your hands now."

Ge Liao didn't understand, so he said, "Ang, what's the matter?"

He looked at Longlin and Li Daqing again, and said honestly: "I also own all the vacant homesteads in their village. I was abandoned by my parents when I was young and had no home. When I grow up, as long as I have money, I want to give it to myself." When buying a house, a house is a home, and only when I have a home can I be at ease.”

Guo Tingyu and Guo Youli: "..." So, you bought dozens of homes for yourself?

Huaijiang picked up a grape and put it in his mouth expressionlessly.

Ji Lian is very thoughtful, although he has nothing to gain from the success of the negotiation today, his role today is only a matchmaker, he still prepared fruits and snacks to entertain the guests.

The two young representatives of Qinglong Town looked at Ge Liao, they were stunned at first, and then their eyes were full of stars, they were more fanatical than idiot fans seeing idols.

Li Daqing was also stunned, but he was old and had already learned the life skills of not showing emotions.

Only Long Lin looked calm, but also faintly excited.

He is the director of the village office. Although Ge Liaobaoyuan's old homestead and several courtyards eager to sell the country house and enter the city were handled by the previous village head, after taking over the village head last year, he read the files. Know this stuff.

Now, Ge Liao, who owns many properties in the two villages, is an employee of Fenghui Farm, and Guo Zengyuan will not come back to cause harm, so the success of their negotiation will undoubtedly be much improved.

The three people in Guo's Village are not as calm as Long Lin.

Guo Youli was so shocked that he forgot to be afraid, he asked Ge Liao, "You, you bought so many housesteads in our village, why don't we know about it?"

Guo Jiyuan answered for Ge Liao: "My brother helped... the families that Mr. Ge contacted. He felt ashamed and threatened everyone not to speak out."

"Oh."

Guo Youli understood that it was Ge Liao who forced Guo Zengyuan to help him contact the owners of the old homestead.

No one in their village is not afraid of Guo Zengyuan. Even if they leave the village to make a living in other places, they will never have any contact with Guo Zengyuan again in this life. Friends wanted to buy their old homestead that would soon be recalled by the state and had been almost forgotten by them, and those people must have agreed in a hurry.

As for Xiaojian's family.

Guo Youli used to be friends with them, knowing that Xiaojian and the others had long wanted to sell the courtyard of Guo's Village and go to the city, but Guo Zengyuan refused.

Guo Zengyuan paranoidly regards Guo's Village as his own territory, as the base for his struggle with Qinglong Town. He despises the poor Guo's Village more than anyone else, but for the disgust of the people of Qinglong Town, he will come back often no matter how disgusted he is.

Guo Zengyuan's arrogant and domineering character is there, how can he allow his own territory to have no one for him to order?That was too embarrassing for him.

Therefore, when Guo Zengyuan's own home was forced to be sold to Ge Liao, Xiaojian and the others simply sold their yard and left.

However, Xiaojian and the others went away not to hide from Ge Liao, but to escape from Guo Zengyuan.

Guo Zengyuan is the nightmare of everyone in Guo’s Village, including Guo Youli and Xiaojian, as well as Guo Zengyuan’s own sister, Guo Jiyuan. He occupies the position of village chief.

Disliked by patriarchal parents since she was a child, Guo Jiyuan is actually very timid and has low self-esteem. She has no courage to resist Guo Jiyuan's arrangement.

Guo Youli and Xiaojian didn't dare to leave in the past, fearing that Guo Zengyuan would cause more disasters if they were found. When Guo Zengyuan provoked Ge Liao, he felt that he was backlashed by the iron sticks he smeared with poison, and became a wheelchair-bound man. Disabled, they finally waited for the chance to get rid of Guo Zengyuan.

Now, even Guo Youli doesn't know where Xiaojian's family has gone.

Guo Youli is the happiest one now, because his grandma would rather die than sell the family business, so their yard was not sold to Ge Liao. After Guo Zengyuan's leg was diagnosed and hopeless, Guo Youli came back. He might become the permanent resident of Fenghui Farm.

Guo Tingyu looked at Ge Liao with sincere eyes: "Mr. Ge, you have so many... industries in our village, you are welcome to come back to... live in the village."

Ge Liao honestly shook his head: "I'm an employee of the farm now, and it's most convenient for me to live in the staff dormitory."

Guo Youli said: "You have so many yards. If we join Fenghui Farm, you can transform the yards into family inns and earn a lot of money. Now, you have to pay a lot of property vacancy tax every year, right?"

Ge Liao nodded honestly: "Well, but I have money, so the property tax is nothing. I won't do things that our boss doesn't like."

The two thrushes on the tree looked at each other: the rascal's mouth is really easy to use.

Guo Tingyu and Guo Youli were not in the mood to appreciate Ge Liao's rascal, and they looked at Guo Jiyuan in despair.

Although Guo Jiyuan was the family member of the culprit who caused their village's misfortune, he was older than the two of them and had been the head of the village office for so many years. The two young people unconsciously relied on her a little bit.

Guo Jiyuan said: "Mr. Huai, Mr. Ge, I swear, my brother, our whole family, and our whole village will never do those dishonorable things in the future. After we join the cooperative village of Fenghui Farm, we must abide by the rules of the farm. , please trust us once."

Lu Jianian and Gao Fengxiang were young and anxious: "Mr. Huai, everyone makes mistakes, please give us a chance.

As long as that bastard Guo Zengyuan is not around, the people in Guo's Village can't make a fuss. If they dare to act like monsters, we will come out and deal with them. "

Lu Jianian's words made Guo Tingyu very angry. She got up to defend herself, but was stopped by Guo Jiyuan.

Guo Jiyuan said: "Director Huai, if you are worried about me and my mother, I can take my mother out of Guo's Village."

She looked at Ge Liao again: "Mr. Ge, if I leave Guo's Village, can I still sell the house to you?"

Ge Liao nodded eagerly: "Of course, I will give Ms. Guo a fair price that matches the current market."

Huaijiang finally raised his eyelids, and he stretched out his hand: "Give me your cooperation agreement and the "Villager Code of Conduct."

Lu Jianian and Guo Tingyu hurried forward and handed over the printed template.

Lu Jianian said: "Our "Villager Regulations" were notarized at the Judiciary the day before yesterday. If we violate the regulations three times, we have the right to expel people from Qinglong Town."

The laws of Huaxia State have endowed local governments at all levels with certain autonomous regions, and villages also have such rights. As long as the regulations formulated by the villages do not conflict with national laws, they will have legal effect after being reviewed and filed by the Judicial Yuan.

Guo Tingyu said: "Ours is the same, and it has the signatures of everyone over the age of 16 in the village."

Huaijiang looked at ten lines at a glance, and spent a few minutes reading the cooperation agreement of the two villages and the "Villagers' Code of Conduct". He raised his head and smiled: "I will convey your sincerity to our boss, within five working days. Answer everyone."

He looked at Guo Jiyuan alone: ​​"You and your mother don't have to leave, I believe Ms. Guo is a noble and honest person."

He has seen Guo's old lady's sloppy appearance, and he doesn't like that old woman very much, but just now the boss told him that Guo's village is the homeland passed down from generation to generation by Guo Jiyuan's family, Fenghui Farm can ignore Guo's village, or it can be out of reality Some people consider using means to put restraint belts on people like Mrs. Guo, but they have no right to ask them to leave their homes.

Guo Jiyuan stood up with red eyes, and bowed to Huaijiang again: "Thank you! I will restrain my mother's behavior and won't let her cause you trouble."

Lu Jianian and Gao Fengxiang looked at Huaijiang who was smiling kindly, and asked Ji Lian with their eyes: Is there a door?

Ji Lian smiled and said nothing.

Ge Liao has been standing upright, pretending not to know that there are two birds in a certain tree.

The two birds on the tree are worrying about each other:

Dozens of homesteads were added at once, and Shen Houren's former VIPs and bigwigs from the nine business circles are coming to entangle again. They haven't had a leisurely life recently.
