My Family
Liu Hanming was almost confused.
Did these words come from the mouth of Liu Ye, whom he knew?
Liu Hanming asked: "My son, do you know how difficult it is to build a house? I have worked all my life to have this house. The two shabby rooms your father left behind are more than a hundred years old and they are absolutely ruined."
People with two houses. When your grandfather bought it, he spent four tons of rice."
"Is there still such a thing?"
Liu Ye was also confused. He had lived in the old house for so many years and still didn't know the story behind it.
"Where did you get so much money to build a house? Did your father leave a lot of cash for you?"
"No. My father has been poor all his life. How can he have an ocean?"
"That's it! I'm still worried about this matter. I heard that your family is temporarily staying at my father-in-law's house in Liangtou Tang, but that's not a long-term solution."
"Uncle, I will find a way to solve my problem. Aren't you the production captain? There are always more ways than difficulties."
"That's true! It's just that you've suffered a lot, and it will probably take several years to get over it."
"It won't take several years. I want to pick a good day to start construction. In the past few days, my uncle has helped me level the land."
"I saw that the old house and the vegetable plot were all demolished. Do you really want to build a house? How big should it be?"
Liu Ye's new homestead covers an area of more than 500 square meters, which should be more than twice the size of Liu Hanming's house.
"I haven't thought about it yet. Let's finish the foundation first."
"After we finish the foundation, we still need money. How can we build it if we don't have money?"
"Uncle, I'll think of a solution slowly."
Liu Ye quickly found an excuse to leave. It was obvious that Liu Hanming did not believe that Liu Ye had the ability to build a new house.
I can't blame anyone for this. My impression in the village is really bad. Not many people even believe that I can make a living, let alone build a house.
"Uncle Ming told you?"
Li Cuiyu saw Liu Ye and asked calmly.
"Um."
Liu Ye said: "I can't help it. I was too useless in the past and made him worry too much."
"It's good to know. We are still young. If we work hard, we will still have a good life."
Li Cuiyu said firmly.
Liu Ye could see that she loved life very much. The fundamental reason why she was on a dead end in her previous life was poverty.
"Jade, I know."
Liu Ye's eyes were a little moist, and he almost couldn't hold back and wanted to cry.
"Come on, let's water the sweet potatoes. We've only watered them for a few days after we planted them. We still don't know whether those sweet potatoes are dead or alive."
Li Cuiyu took the hatchet from Liu Ye's hand and opened the way in front. Liu Ye carried the bucket and walked behind.
"Xiaoye, what kind of beast do you think that beast trap can catch?"
Li Cuiyu's eyes were a little yearning. Liu Ye felt that she also wanted to make money.
These days, so many nonsense things happened that Liu Ye even forgot about the animal trap.
"I don't know. Maybe there is nothing."
The mountain road is winding and the wild grass is luxuriant.
What Liu Ye was more worried about was that he was afraid that he would be unlucky and run into tigers, wild wolves and other wild beasts. He didn't want Li Cuiyu to be frightened again.
After not coming for more than ten days, the sweet potatoes in Liu Ye's one-third-acre field sprouted new shoots two to three inches long, indicating that the sweet potatoes were alive.
To Liu Ye's dismay, the weeds grew more lush than the sweet potatoes.
"Xiaoye, I think these potatoes are ready for shoveling. How about I come over and shovel the grass tomorrow?"
Li Cuiyu asked tentatively.
Liu Ye smiled and said: "Can't we just give Uncle Qian a favor and ask him to do it? Why is there no need for my wife to do it herself?"
Li Cuiyu's face darkened and she said: "I don't think you are like a farmer's child, but more like a landlord in the old society! You spend money to hire people for everything, how can you have so much money?!"
Liu Ye was speechless for a moment. Is this a lot of money?
If she knew that in the future she would become a billionaire and even have several personal bodyguards, I don't know how she would feel.
Liu Ye: "I'm not too lazy, but I really feel that I can't make a fortune by growing a few sweet potatoes. There should be better ways to make money."
Li Cuiyu's wallet is full, and the money did not fall from the sky, nor was she earned it herself.
On the contrary, it was all due to Liu Ye.
Liu Ye knows that it is not easy to change her mindset. It is not too difficult to make some money and make a small fortune in this era.
Li Cuiyu said: "If you have money, you can't mess around. You always ask people to do things. You act like a master. I can't stand it."
"Well, my dear wife, what you are criticizing is that I will change it later."
Liu Ye smiled and said: "Aren't I trying a different way to provide benefits to my two uncles? I didn't expect that the first person who disapproved would be you."
Li Cuiyu: "I think you spend money lavishly. Do you want to live your life in the future?"
"What you want will only get better and better."
Liu Ye put the bucket on the ground, held the pole in his hand, gave the hatchet to Li Cuiyu, and then went to the place where the animal trap was placed.
When he arrived at the scene, Liu Ye was shocked.
There are two golden monkeys in a wire cage.
These two golden monkeys haven't eaten for two days and can't get out. They have no energy left.
Li Cuiyu sighed and said, "Why is this monkey so stupid?"
Liu Ye smiled and said: "It's not that they are too stupid! Look at this wire cage, even the tiger cubs can't even get out."
Li Cuiyu searched around and found a few unknown wild fruits and stuffed them into the wire cage.
The two golden monkeys ate a few wild fruits, their eyes full of gratitude. They recognized that Li Cuiyu was their savior.
"Xiaoye, what are you going to do with them?"
"Send to the zoo."
"Selling money again?"
"It's not a sale, it's a prize."
Liu Ye smiled mysteriously: "Last time, the zoo awarded four thousand yuan to the two tiger cubs. This time, I think it's worth giving them two golden monkeys."
"Hmm. I think they are quite pitiful."
"When we arrive at the zoo, they eat well, drink well, have a good environment, and are safe. That's what we call heaven."
"Um."
Liu Ye put the two golden monkeys into a woven bag each, left an air outlet above the woven bag, and returned to the sweet potato field.
After such a torment, even Li Cuiyu no longer thought about watering the water.
She asked: "Xiaoye, when are you going to send them to the zoo?"
"Now! But I need to work hard for you. You go back and lie, saying that I met my classmates and went to a restaurant with them."
Li Cuiyu glared at him and said, "Aren't you asking for it? Your two uncles have a bad impression of you, and you still want to discredit yourself?"
Liu Ye smiled and said: "I really want to sit in a restaurant. I want to invite Jiang Jinbao and Wang Lianke to have a meal together. Isn't it too much?"
Li Cuiyu: "It's not too much. They have helped us so much, so why treat them to a drink and a meal? What's too much?"
Liu Ye praised: "My wife has the potential to be a rich woman. Work hard. How about you go home and give me your bankbook later, and I will withdraw some money?"
"How much to take?"
"One hundred. If you don't use it all, I'll give it back to you."
"What's mine is yours, and what's yours is mine. Why are you being so polite to me, my family?"
Li Cuiyu gave a cute look, with a trace of rosiness on her face.
