The next day, at dawn, Liang Chuan led a group of people and marched back to Helu Village. Helu is a small place. If something happens, the whole village will know about it. People are doing nothing.

, whose parent is the best person to talk about after dinner.

The fire at Liang Chuan's house burned so fiercely that even the county government official was alarmed. He came down to see the fire scene the next day. Liang Chuan's group of people was huge, and there was also a dog following him. Unbeknownst to him, he thought he was busy.

Go to the market or something.

When Liang Chuan came back, he passed by Zheng Ji's grocery store and bought several new sets of daily tools such as axes, knives, hoes, skips, ropes, baskets, and fire sickles. They were necessary for life and could not be used.

Missing. These things look worthless, but buying them at this time is really life-threatening. Each item adds up to several dollars.

When paying the bill, Liang Chuan was frightened. He kept asking the shopkeeper to calculate clearly and carefully. Why is the money so easy to earn, and it costs so much to buy a few hoes? However, Liang Chuan thought about it carefully later, and it made sense: First of all

In this era, the output of iron was not high, and iron tools were relatively valuable. Furthermore, in this era, a hoe could do a lot of things.

Farm work has become a necessity, and farm work alone can feed many people. If you go up to the mountains and open up wasteland, the land belongs to your own people. Production tools such as hoes are what make the majority of farmers make money. If you think about it this way, it is reasonable to think that it is more expensive. Government arrangements

When they are refugees, if they can be given a set of production tools, it will give them a new way to survive.

Then I saw a good seller of cooking cakes on the way, so I bought a lot of cooking cakes to use as dry food, and also brought a small handful of oranges.

After returning to the ruins of his home, there was only some charcoal ash left on the ground. The firewood that had been piled full of firewood was now reduced to rubbish and could not be used. Liang Chuan arranged for Ye Xiaochai and the other women to move together to clean up the ruins. Here we go.

I want to build a house again, now

These construction wastes must be cleared away. After clearing away the dregs of the house, we go to the thatch on the river bank and take a few more trucks back. The thatch needs to be tied up to build a temporary thatched house. The house is still in my mind, and the weather has been colder these days.

Well, you have to have a place to sleep first.

Liang Chuan dug around the house and found the earthen jar where he kept the duck eggs. The fire burned everything. The earthen jar couldn't burn, so he didn't know if the preserved eggs inside were broken.

Liang Chuan took Zhaodi to the place where Zhaodi's sister-in-law lives. When buying land, you have to negotiate the price. Besides, it's been a long time since I took Zhaodi as my younger brother, and I haven't even come to say thank you to her. It seems a bit unjustifiable.

.

Zhaodi's home is not far from Liang Chuan's home and can be seen from the yard. He Lu originally had a small population. When Liang Chuan arrived at Zhaodi's house, his eldest brother was squatting on the threshold with his hands in a daze.

When he saw Zhaodi and Liang Chuan coming back, he didn't take it seriously. He turned his head and pretended he didn't see anything.

On the night when Liang Chuan's family was in trouble, many nearby villagers discovered the situation. They didn't want to put out the fire, but wanted to watch the fun.

Unexpectedly, when they opened the door, they not only saw the light of the fire but also the light of the knife. They all saw the second master leading someone to kill someone with a knife! They were so frightened that they retreated back into the house, and it was worth watching the fun.

Is this a lively occasion? This is murder and arson!

When Liang Chuan saw that this sister-in-law didn't have a good look on her face, she thought to herself that this sister-in-law is really not a good person. I haven't been home for so long, and now I saw that I didn't even say a greeting when I came home. How can I pretend that I haven't seen her?

Brother Zhao had already despaired of his sister-in-law, so he led Liang Chuan into the house without even bothering with her.

Zhaodi's father was sitting on a bench. When Zhaodi came back, he didn't say anything. Sitting on the bench, he looked like a demented old man, looking at the ground blankly. Even though it was daytime

, but Zhaodi's home was pitch dark, with greasy stains on the walls and floor, and the house was in a mess, as if no one had ever taken care of it.

The younger brother is also surnamed Zheng. Like his third uncle, He Lu actually has many mixed surnames, including Li, Zheng, Meng, Luo, Huang, and He. The most common surname is He. This is not a native ancient village. The villagers’

In fact, most of our ancestors were refugees from the north who moved to the south to avoid the war.

Every family has its own scriptures that are difficult to recite. Liang Chuan only knew that Liang Chuan's sister-in-law was not good, and he did not expect that the environment in his brother's home was so bad. If he did not take care of a good home, it would be like a pigsty. It was rare to be like this.

It's like a pigsty. If it were him, he wouldn't want to stay at home.

Liang Chuan carried the oranges and placed them next to the bench where Zhaodi's father was sitting, and said, "Zhaodi's father is really sorry. Our fellow villagers haven't come around for so long. There have been a lot of things at home recently, and your family has a good Zhaodi family.

, you have been doing some work with me recently, and I came here to visit your old man today?"

At this time, a violent banging sound of pots and pans was heard in the house. As soon as Zhaodi's father heard the sound, he already lost his energy. He lowered his head deeper, and his dry lungs like a bellows began to cough.

stand up.

The collision in the room stopped, and a fat woman with a fat head and big ears walked out. When the woman saw Liang Chuan, she sneered first, and then teased: "Hey, I wonder whose distinguished guest is here?

, it turns out to be San'er from next door..."

When Liang Chuan heard this, his words were thorny and sour. He saw that he was looking for trouble, and he was not ambiguous in his words. He directly pushed back and said: "Hey, sister-in-law, why haven't we seen each other for so many days? This figure is getting slimmer and slimmer."

Graceful?"

Zhaodi was originally afraid of his sister-in-law, but when he heard the words coming out of Liang Chuan's unforgiving mouth, he almost laughed out loud. He held a breath of laughing gas in his mouth, which made his face turn red.

When Zhaodi's sister-in-law heard that Liang Chuan dared to tease her about her figure, Zhaodi's brother-in-law turned his elbows outward to make fun of him. She was so angry that she couldn't take advantage of Liang Chuan, so she pointed at Zhaodi's nose.

He scolded directly: "Well done to you.

You lazy idiot, your eldest brother has to support this family all by himself, working day and night. It would be better for you to go out fishing every day without thinking of helping your eldest brother share any of the burden. Didn't he have enough food to eat today?

Come back and make a living?"

Zhaodi is an honest man. He can't argue with his fierce sister-in-law without getting ripped off. His sister-in-law even scolded him and forcefully swallowed the smile he just had. He has such a good face.

Standing there boredly.

Brother Zhaodi and Dad Zhaodi are probably used to this kind of scene. They didn't want to say anything at first and just endured it. However, today there was an outsider like Liang Chuan present. He was scolding him too harshly for fear that it would not be passed on and would not be heard well. The old man looked at it.

Not wanting to go on anymore, he started talking, raised his eyes and looked at his wife, and said, "Say less..."

The untimely words of Zhaodi's father undoubtedly added fuel to the fire. The sister-in-law's anger exploded. As soon as the direction of her finger changed, she immediately pointed the finger at Zhaodi's father and started to curse at the top of her lungs: "You old man"

.." one sentence

Before he could even finish his words, Liang Chuan noticed something was wrong. He thought he was here to talk about something, but why did he come here to quarrel? If this argument continues, not to mention buying land, even the door to their home would probably be opened.

It's hard to get in.

Liang Chuan took a quick step and rushed between the old man and his sister-in-law. He gently pressed down the sister-in-law's hand with his hand. He smiled with countless wrinkles on his face and said, "Sister-in-law, don't be anxious. I have something to do with you today."

Let’s discuss it.”

The eldest sister-in-law snorted and said, "It's nothing to discuss! Is there any other thing that can be obtained in this family? The old and the young are all eating dry food, and no one has anything useful."

Liang Chuan said straight to the point: "My little brother's house was accidentally given to me yesterday. It's getting colder and colder now, and I don't have a place to stay. I'm thinking about building a bigger house. I want to discuss this with you.

, let’s see if we can give up the land next to us to my little brother..."

When the brother-in-law and sister-in-law heard what Liang Chuan said, they looked at Liang Chuan twice and said, "No wonder I said that when I went out to take a night pee this morning, I couldn't see your nest. I dared to burn it down with a fire. I

Say three, I remember you used to be unable to beat someone with three sticks, how can you say so now?

You know what, whatever medicine your wife gave you, share it with me, and I’ll give it to our damn guy too. Not long ago, they said you were crippled after a fall into the mountains. What kind of wind is this?

How can you get rich by shaving your head? If you don’t have money to treat it after you carry it back and wait for death, how can you still have money to buy land and build a house?”

The people who recruited brothers and sisters-in-law looked fierce, and those who opened their mouths were like barrages. They never wanted to fall short when they opened their mouths. They spouted a series of words like rats running out of a bottomless pit. They were endless. Liang Chuan knew that with this kind of

No matter how much you fight with others, the only one who loses the price is yourself. He said: "Sister-in-law, give it to me evenly. You can give me a price!"

The sister-in-law who recruited her younger brother is someone who despises poverty and loves wealth at heart. After marrying into the Zheng family, she had a very hard life. She didn’t have a penny in her pocket, and she didn’t even care about the housework and farm work. When she heard about the money, she immediately became excited. Look at Liang Chuan’s appearance.

It seems like he really wants to build a house

Son, with a flash of light in his mind, he pulled Liang Chuan to be more affectionate than his husband. He changed his cannibalistic attitude just now and said: "Sister-in-law, I haven't seen you recently, and my demeanor has really changed. My sister-in-law is easy to talk to. Why don't you give it to me?"

Can you tell me which piece of land and what price?"

Liang Chuan said: "Follow the road outside to Fengshan Township. There is not much land next to my house. Just one acre of land."

"It's the piece of land next to your house. It's easy to talk about. I wonder how much you will pay for it, San'er?"

The eldest brother, who had been sitting on the threshold without saying a word all morning, finally spoke when he heard that Liang Chuan wanted to buy the land next to his house, but he said without any confidence: "That land is going to be reserved for dad as a cemetery."

Yes, not for sale!”

The sister-in-law was not happy. She pinched her waist and walked to recruit her younger brother to follow her. Then she pointed at his head and cursed directly: "You are as weak as a worm and a loser. If you don't sell the land, you can make some money for me to spend."

Damn, your father is starving to death. If it weren’t for my mother and me struggling to support this shabby situation, your father would

My mother has already gone to the streets to beg for food, so why is that piece of land left? Will your old ghost be buried in the ground in a hundred years? If your old ghost is not buried, I will starve to death in this doghouse before you do! Look.

How many days can the rice at home last? If you can afford it, don’t sell the land. Go get the rice for me first!”

Liang Chuan looked a bit unreliable. He was recruiting his own brother. If he turned around and took their land, his eldest brother and his father would not be happy. It would not hurt their friendship, so he said: "Hey,

Seeing this situation, your family has to make some calculations first. I’ll go back home first. If it doesn’t work, I’ll forget it.”

When the brother-in-law and sister-in-law saw that Liang Chuan was about to leave, they became anxious. They grabbed Liang Chuan and said, "Don't leave in a hurry, San'er. I have the final say in this family. You can sell this place to you for just two cents."

.”

Liang Chuan said: "I don't have so much money with me now, so how about I go back to Yi Niang to get some money first, and we can discuss it when I get back?"
