Chapter 506: It’s better to stay at home(1/3)
"Great!" Father Xu was very happy.
"I'm leaving first." Director Zhang said.
"I'll go with you."
Director Zhang frowned slightly.
"Brother Xu, I have other things to deal with. Just stop making trouble."
"How dare I make trouble? I just want to ask if I can allocate some subsidies or something." Father Xu said shamelessly.
Director Zhang couldn’t laugh or cry.
"Okay, how much subsidy do you want?"
"Three hundred catties of grain, twenty thousand yuan." Father Xu said loudly.
"Three hundred kilograms of grain? Twenty thousand yuan? Isn't this price too expensive?" Director Zhang said in surprise.
He has been in politics for decades and is well-informed. Anyone who is included in the demolition category is a "nail household".
Father Xu’s appetite is too big.
Such people usually don't have a happy ending.
"Director Zhang, for the sake of our friendship over so many years, can you do it cheaper?" Father Xu begged.
"Let's do this, I'll give you a 20% discount and give you 30 cents per kilogram of grain. In addition, I'll give you a subsidy of five yuan." Director Zhang said.
"Let's do this. I'll give you a 30% discount and five yuan per catty of grain." Father Xu said through gritted teeth.
"Are you crazy?" Director Zhang's eyes widened.
Father Xu smiled and said: "I am serious. Our family is in a difficult situation. I want to change the status quo and let my father and my sister live a good life. You are the benefactor of our old Xu family. As long as you are willing
Support me, and if I have the opportunity in the future, I will give you our farmland as a thank you gift."
"Can you give me your farmland?" Director Zhang asked in surprise.
"Of course."
"Okay! I promise you."
"Director Zhang, then we have a happy negotiation?"
"Yeah. It was settled happily."
……
When he came back from the town commune, Father Xu looked gloomy, as if someone owed him millions.
"What's wrong? Why are you looking so sad?" Lou Xiao'e asked.
"Alas! You know our Weiguo's temperament, he is quite stubborn." Father Xu sighed and said.
"I know. His biggest wish in this life is to make a lot of money so that you and his sister can have enough food and clothing." Lou Xiao'e said.
"Our family, Wei Guo, is indeed very ambitious. He has always performed outstandingly and made extraordinary achievements since the beginning of joining the army. However, he is young after all. He is not considerate in many aspects." Father Xu shook his head and said, "Wei Guo wants to build roads.
, but there is no money. His mother and I cannot raise enough funds for him to build the road."
"Aren't you a soldier? Get him some money and you'll have enough money to build the road."
"Wei Guo said that he must make money by himself." Father Xu said.
"Then he has to work hard, otherwise it will be in vain."
"Oh! I'm really worried. If I had known this, I shouldn't have cared about him."
"Although Weiguo is a stubborn boy, he is not a bad boy."
Father Xu sighed.
"Wei Guo is a sensible child. It's just his lack of care that makes him develop such a temperament," Lou Xiao'e said.
"I understand. I will educate Weiguo well."
Lou Xiao'e smiled but said nothing.
"If Weiguo knew that his wife and daughter came to the town commune to study, he would probably be extremely happy. Now he can finally study in peace without worrying about his sister." Father Xu said with emotion.
"This child is so pitiful. We have to give him something sweet to prevent him from thinking wildly."
"The child's idea is very simple, he just wants to create better conditions for his sister." Father Xu sighed.
"Yes. You are a poor kid too."
"Xiao'e, don't worry, I will never forget your goodness when I marry a wife in Weiguo."
"What are you talking about!"
"Haha, you feel shy when I say that! You are my wife, of course I will remember you."
"If you say that again, I will divorce you when I go back." Lou Xiao'e threatened.
"Okay, okay. Go back quickly. I'll pick you up in the evening."
"Yeah." Lou Xiao'e responded, picked up the baggage and left.
Father Xu looked at the retreating figure and murmured to himself: "I hope that one day, you can live happily."
……
Around 4 p.m.
Father Xu brought Du Yue and his daughter Xu Xiaoya to the deaf old lady's house.
Father Xu took out two hundred yuan and stuffed it into Du Yue's arms, and said, "Sister-in-law, this money will be used for your and my daughter's tuition."
Du Yue quickly waved her hand and declined.
"Sister-in-law, please accept this money. This money is for our country to honor you." Father Xu firmly stuffed the money into Du Yue's arms.
"Uncle, I really can't have you like this."
"Sister-in-law, just accept it. This is a child's filial piety to you and my little girl. If it weren't for your family's help, we wouldn't be able to solve the accommodation problem."
"This child is so sensible!" Du Yue said happily.
"Wei Guo is a good boy." Father Xu said.
"Auntie, don't worry, when Wei Guo becomes capable in the future, he will definitely take care of you and my little girl."
"This child..." Du Yue said with tears in her eyes, "This child is a good child."
"Uncle, aunt, have you eaten? I just boiled eggs and left a bowl for you." Xu Xiaoya walked in with a bowl of hot egg custard.
"Xiaoya, we have eaten."
"Uncle, aunt, my little girl made this specially for you. My little girl said that her mother is not at home, so you have to take good care of her father." Xu Xiaoya said obediently.
"Xiaoya is so sensible!" Du Yue praised.
"Uncle, aunt, you guys sit and chat. I'm going to find Brother Wei Guo."
"Go ahead."
……
Xu Xiaoya came to the door of the next door.
Xu Weiguo is writing something.
"Brother Wei Guo, have you eaten the eggs?" Xu Xiaoya said with a smile.
"I've eaten." Xu Weiguo stopped the pencil in his hand.
"Brother Wei Guo, I heard that you want to build a road?" Xu Xiaoya asked.
"Hmm."
"Are you confident that you can make it through?"
"Have confidence!"
"Oh..."
Xu Xiaoya hesitated to speak.
"Xiaoya, if you have anything to say, just say it."
"Brother Wei Guo, we need money to build roads. If you do this, you will lose your life." Xu Xiaoya said with red eyes.
Xu Weiguo was stunned for a moment.
"Our family is not very poor. You don't have to worry about money." Xu Xiaoya continued to persuade.
"Our family is poor because we have no money to buy a TV or a refrigerator. Our family has no money to build roads. I am not afraid of death."
Xu Weiguo didn't know how to explain to Xu Xiaoya.
He is not afraid of death, but he is reluctant to let his daughter suffer.
"I heard from grandpa that your family has a mountain. That mountain can be sold for money."
