- Chapter 241 Coming to the Door
?? What the elderly in rural areas value most is whether their children are promising, and the thing that best reflects whether their children are promising is their house.
Migrant workers work hard day and night in the city, eating the worst food and living in the darkest and dampest basements in order to save money. Just to be able to build a house at home.
Maybe they can only live in this house for ten days and a half during the Chinese New Year, but they never tire of it.
It is difficult for many people to understand why some people would risk their lives to defend their houses, because this house is their life, and it is even more important than their lives.
A house in a rural area is like a monument to life. As a farmer, if you can't renovate and build a house by yourself, it will be difficult for you to survive in the village.
But now the concept of rural areas is slowly starting to change. Some active people began to leave the countryside and settle down in the city.
Many young people have also left Banshan Village. They made money in the city, bought a house there, married a wife and had children, and never returned to Banshan Village. For them, the mountainous villages are too poor and remote.
I want to build a house by the river mainly for the turtle king. Turtle King has never been looked down upon by anyone in his life. Jiangbian knows this. Although he may not live in Banshan Village again in the future, King Turtle will stay here forever.
Jiangbian wants to build the most beautiful house in the village so that when the villagers think of King Turtle, they will no longer have that mocking look.
Not everyone can understand Jiangbian¡¯s experience, so not everyone can understand Jiangbian¡¯s idea.
Jiang Fengshi couldn¡¯t understand it, so he felt weird about Jiangbian¡¯s idea.
"Don't worry about money, fifth brother. I've made some money outside in the past six months, although it's not a lot. It should be about the same as building a house." Jiangbian said.
"Don't worry about the house. It's almost the Chinese New Year now, and everyone is rushing to meet deadlines. There will definitely be no one to take over your project. You have to wait until next year. But it shouldn't be a problem to renovate it before the year. I took a look at your house. The leaves on the roof have blocked the tile troughs. When it rains, the rainwater will definitely leak into the house. While the weather is fine now, I will pick up tiles for you. Some more tiles will be added then, so you'd better buy them in advance. If you trust your fifth brother, I can buy it for you." Jiang Fengshi said.
Jiang Bian nodded, "The house must be leaking badly. There is grass growing on the house, and I'm afraid the wood has also rotted a little. I'll ask Brother Five to help with it. The labor and material costs will be included in the calculation."
Jiang Fengshi rolled his eyes at Jiang Bian, "We are all brothers, so what's the point of talking about money? If I pick up a tile for you, I'll charge you for it. Why don't the villagers poke my spine?"
What Jiang Feng said was actually not true. If it were a few years ago, people in the village would really not have to pay for helping. But in recent years, the labor force has gone out to work, and most of the people left in the village are the old, weak, sick and disabled. , the labor force is very scarce.
Even if there are some young and strong labor force left, they don¡¯t go out to make money, so they will work for you for free? Of course it's impossible. So from the early years, as long as the village asked people for help, they would either exchange labor or pay on schedule.
And because the labor intensity in rural areas is high, even more tiring than work at a construction site, the daily wage is at least the level of a construction site.
Jiang Bian is not a nerd. He is very familiar with rural affairs, so he naturally knows that Jiang Fengshi is actually just being polite. If he really doesn't pay, he may not become angry, but a estrangement will definitely arise.
"That can't be done. If my family was in trouble before, your fifth brother would help me. But it can't be done now. This job looks simple, but in fact, it is very heavy. The ones who climb up and down are others. No matter how much money I give, Fifth Brother, you may not be willing to go," Jiang Bian said.
Jiang Fengshi was very pleased with what he heard.
The two of them were polite for a while and confirmed the cost of renovation of the riverside house.
After breakfast, we had to go out to the riverside.
Li Huijun would not be back until later, so she asked Jiangbian to bring some things to the two children at home. Jiangbian himself also secretly bought a lot of things for the two little guys.
But Li Yueji didn¡¯t plan to go home for the New Year, so she bought a lot of things and asked Jiangbian to bring them back.
¡°If Jiangbian had to carry everything, I guess even the hands with as many centipedes growing on the riverside wouldn¡¯t be able to carry it.
Jiangbian secretly put most of his things into the space and returned to the mountain village with only one bag.
Jiangbian has never been to Liu Huijun¡¯s house openly, but this time he had an excuse.
Jiangbian came to Liu Huijun¡¯s doorstep, which surprised the Liu family. Although Liu Huijun¡¯s parents had known about it for a long time,Dao Jiangbian will bring something back. It¡¯s still hard to accept Jiangbian.
Before leaving Jiangbian, Liu Huijun and Liu Huijun made the Liu family disgraced and made Liu Chuping feel angry all the time. But when Jiangbian came to visit, Liu Chuping really couldn't find an excuse to have an attack. After all, Jiang Bian is still a fellow villager, and he is just kind-hearted enough to bring some things back to your grandchildren.
Jiangbian was carrying a big bag in one hand. From the strength of the straps on the bag, it was easy to know that the contents of the bag were relatively rich.
Liu Chuping deliberately hid in the house and refused to come out, even though he really wanted to know what Liu Huijun was doing in Qiantang. But he was worried that when he saw the riverside, he would be tempted to beat up the culprit who had made him lose face.
Liu Chuping¡¯s mother-in-law Xia Su¡¯e was very enthusiastic, ¡°By the river, come in and sit, come in and sit.¡±
"Hey." Jiangbian was not polite and walked into Liu's house carrying his things.
Jiangbian looked around, "Where are Yina and Xinghai?"
"Yina is in the first grade, and she hasn't had a holiday yet. That boy from Xinghai went to town with his uncle early in the morning." Xia Su'e lifted a chair and put it in front of the river, "Sit down."
Sitting down by the river, "Uncle Liu is out?"
"Well, someone in the village is sick, and the old man has gone to see a doctor. Have you had breakfast?"
Xia Su'e walked in again and brought out a cup of hot tea.
Jiang Bian quickly stood up and took the tea from Xia Su'e's hand, "After eating, my fifth brother invited me to eat in the morning. He was afraid that I would have no place to make food when I just came back. In fact, I made food at home last night. ¡±
Xia Su'e sat down across the river, "They said you were on the news on national TV, but I didn't see it. Is it true?"
Xia Su'e actually asked the question knowingly, just to find a good mother-in-law to discuss the topic of her son-in-law.
"Whether there is such a thing is actually not as mysterious as people in the village say. In fact, I participated in a fishing competition. As you know, my fishing skills are nothing to say. During the competition, the national television broadcasted it and interviewed me. . I was lucky and won the championship." Jiang Bian said with a smile.
"So that's what happened. The prize money in the competition is quite large, right?" Xia Su'e asked.
"It's not bad. The total is one hundred thousand. After deducting the tax, I still have about seventy or eighty thousand left." Jiang Bian said.
"That's incredible. Those who work outside the village earn two to three thousand yuan a month, but those who make money only earn ten to twenty thousand yuan a year. You have to live frugally," Xia Su'e said.
"This competition doesn't happen every day. It only happens once a year. You may not be able to get a ranking. If you don't get a ranking, you won't get any money, and you have to waste a lot of money." Jiangbian said.
"That's true. How can the money be so easy to make?" Xia Su'e said.
Liu Chuping was in a hurry in the room, but he could only be anxious. He cursed in his heart, "This stinky bitch. She just asked useless questions. After talking for a long time, there was no useful word."
Xia Su'e, however, took her time and said, "I heard from Huijun that you worked as a chef in a restaurant for a period of time? Why did you stop working later?"
Jiang Bian smiled and said, "I have been working for a while. You also know that I don't know anything about cooking. Just relying on the old man's ingredient recipe, the dishes I made have a unique flavor. If compared to my cooking skills, I Even an apprentice can¡¯t compare.¡±
"Then what are your plans for the future? Fishing can't be considered a job?" Xia Su'e started to ask the main topic. Liu Chuping, who was hiding in the room, also pricked up his ears.
"Although this fishing cannot be taken seriously, I have signed an agreement with a club to represent them in various fishing competitions. The income is relatively stable. In addition, the previous competitions are not over yet. I have to go to the United States to participate next year The game. We can only talk about the future after the game is over." Jiangbian said.
"Have you found a partner? When do you plan to get married?" This is Xia Su'e's most core question, and she went round and round just to ask this question.
Liu Chuping also leaned towards the door and accidentally touched a bench beside him.
¡°Bang!¡±
A loud noise startled Xia Su'e.
Jiangbian also followed the sound and looked over.
"You sit down first, I'll go over and take a look." Xia Su'e walked into the room.
"What are you doing here, you silly bitch? Ask me quickly? You went around and around and finally got the idea. Why did you run in?" Liu Chuping was very annoyed.
"You have the nerve to say that. I almost didn't scare you to death. Just hide here and listen. Why are you making such a big noise?" Xia Su'e rolled her eyes at Liu Chuping.
"Oh, I accidentally bumped into a stool." Liu Chuping was very depressed, "You silly woman, you don't know that the cat in the house is too noisy."
"Jiangbian, go on. The old cat at home was running around in the room just now and knocked over the stool." Xia Su'e said.
Jiang Bian smiled and said, "This old cat is really capable of tossing."
Jiang Bian actually knew that Liu Chuping was hiding in the room and eavesdropping.
Liu Chuping in the room was so angry that his beard almost stood up.
"Well, go on," Xia Su'e said.
"Where did we talk about just now? Is it that old cat or something?" Jiangbian deliberately started talking nonsense.
Xia Su'e was accidentally swept in by the river, "Well, that old cat loves to mess around too much. Oh, no. Do you have a girlfriend now?"
Jiang Bian shook his head, "I haven't even figured out my horoscope yet. I like people, but they may not like me. There's no way to talk about marriage."
Xia Su'e was a little confused when she heard this. She originally thought that her daughter had already established a relationship with Jiangbian, and since they were both in Qiantang City, they would naturally come together. I thought I had reached the stage of discussing marriage.
