Chapter 1086 Before, they looked very much like an old married couple.
She left and went to the room on the west side. Although she was tired and exhausted, it was impossible to fall asleep.
I don't know if it's because I'm crying, because I'm sad, or because I don't sleep well and my brain doesn't work very well.
As time passed by, her mood gradually stabilized.
I don’t know how long it took, but it got bright and the sunlight came in through the window.
She heard the voice of the village chief's wife. "Xiao Xi, are you at home? I saw a car parked in front of your house."
Bai Xi stood up, opened the door, and saw Ji Chenling still sweeping the floor.
He took off his outer suit and rolled up the sleeves of his white shirt. Different from the cold feeling he had in the past, he had an extra layer of warmth at home.
Bai Xi knew that he might not have slept at all last night.
"Stop cleaning and take a rest." Bai Xi said softly.
"Are you hungry? What do you want for breakfast? I see that the refrigerator here is closed and there is nothing in it. Should I buy it for you, or should you go out to eat with me?" Ji Chenling asked softly.
Bai Xi walked up to Ji Chenling. "Ji Chenling, thank you for your kindness and concern, but I want to stay alone for a few days quietly."
Ji Chenling looked at Bai Xi silently, his eyes dark and solemn, and he said nothing.
The knock on the door rang again, "Xiao Xi, are you at home?"
Bai Xi opened the door without waiting for Ji Chenling's reply.
The village chief's wife held a basket of eggs in her hand, grinned a friendly smile, and said enthusiastically: "When I saw the car parked at the door, I guessed you were at home. These are eggs laid by my chickens. They are natural and harmless.
Take it back and eat it every day."
"No, no need." Bai Xi refused, not liking to take other people's things for no reason.
The village chief's wife put a basket of eggs by the door and said to Bai Xi: "An important thing happened in the village recently. I originally wanted to call you in the past few days. By chance, you are back.
, I’ll come over and talk to you.”
"Uh, what's wrong?" Bai Xi blurted out and asked.
"No, in the new rural transformation, it is said that the houses in our village will be demolished, 710 square meters, and then the demolition houses will be arranged. According to the household registration, each person will be given 40 square meters, and the land will be subsidized by one acre per year.
Rural insurance will be arranged for everyone at a cost of 1,000. After discussion, the villagers decided to demolish the house. After all, many young people in our village have bought houses in the city and have stopped farming. You just need to sign the agreement when the time comes.
, you don’t come back very often anyway.” said the village chief’s wife.
Bai Xi doesn't want to demolish it.
At first she wanted to take her grandma to live in the city, but her grandma refused to leave.
First, grandma is waiting for her husband and daughter to come back,
Second, this place carries all the memories and habits of grandma.
She was tired of wandering outside. When she returned to this place, she felt as if she had returned to her grandmother. She could think of many warm memories with her and felt comfortable. She also felt that she had some kind of connection with her.
This sense of familiarity is given by this place.
"I don't want to demolish it," Bai Xi said.
The village chief's wife was stunned for a moment, "Why? You are living outside now, and your grandmother is no longer here. Are you planning to come back in the future?"
It's not about preparing to come back, but when you have a thought in your heart, you will tell yourself that there is still a place to go, and you will not be aimless and have no place to return.
"I don't want to demolish it," Bai Xi said again.
"However, almost everyone has signed now, and there are still two households who are still hesitating. If the whole village agrees, each household will be given an additional 51 square meters of subsidies. Xiao Xi, if you are worried about returning to live somewhere,
You can stay at my sister-in-law’s house, she will always welcome you.”
It's not that there is no place to stay, she can also stay in a hotel.
This is an emotional nostalgia.
Bai Xi didn't want to affect everyone's interests, "Calculate your losses and tell me, and I will subsidize them."
"Sister-in-law, that's not what you meant." The village chief's wife felt embarrassed. "Just think about it, everyone has moved away and your family is left alone, deserted, which is inconvenient. Moreover, we need to coordinate the best planning here.
Just leaving your house is unsightly and affects the appearance of the city. Also, I believe that if your grandma were alive, she would be willing to demolish it with everyone. After all, the house is cold and only the people are warm.
Bar?"
Bai Xi remained silent and lowered his eyes.
Seeing that Bai Xi was silent, the village chief's wife said what she needed to say. She didn't know how to communicate anymore, "Okay, you think about it first, I'll call you later."
Bai Xi watched the village chief's wife leave, then closed the door and turned around.
Ji Chenling didn't know when he stood behind her.
"If you don't want to demolish, just leave this matter to me." Ji Chenling promised.
Bai Xi knew that with Ji Chenling's ability, he could turn things around with just one phone call, and maybe the entire village would not be demolished.
But she suddenly thought, a year later, she would actually die, so what would be the use of keeping this house? It might become a burden to him.
Just like, if she dies, she doesn't really want Ji Chenling to remember her, because she hopes that he can regain happiness and live a happy life.
Her grandmother, perhaps, also hoped that she would let go and be happy, living happily without worries.
"I will agree to the demolition. After all, my sister-in-law is right. I may not come back here several times in the future. It's just that my grandmother's grave has to be moved out. I'm worried that during the renovation, they will dig up my grandmother's grave. It was buried before.
From the fields." Bai Xi said.
"I will contact the temple and place it in the temple to be enshrined for generations to come. When you miss your grandma, you can go and visit her." Ji Chenling suggested.
Bai Xi lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes covering the window to her soul.
Whenever she was in trouble, he was actually by his side to solve it thoughtfully, starting with helping her get a divorce.
However, from beginning to end, she seemed to have done nothing to help him. On the contrary, she had been holding him back and became his concern and burden.
If she had not appeared in his life, he should have lived a better and more comfortable life.
"Ji Chenling, let's go have breakfast on the street now." Bai Xi said softly.
"Okay, I'll wash my hands first, wait for me for two minutes." Ji Chenling said, walked to the kitchen, washed his hands, put down his sleeves, buttoned the sleeves, and put on his suit.
Bai Xi stepped forward and buttoned his buttons, very much like a good wife and mother, very much like before... before they had a fight.
Ji Chenling's eyes softened and he said in a deep voice: "Let's not quarrel in the future. It makes me very uncomfortable. Of course, if something I do makes you feel uncomfortable, you can tell me directly."
