Chapter 22 No one can rob
In the past and present, selling the old house did not feel too sad for Mu Zhengfeng. What really made him feel uncomfortable was that the hearts of the people in the village were changing easily. When the grandfather was buried, the villagers borrowed money to help, which was also to repay the favors he owed to the grandfather.
Now that he pays off all the foreign debts he owes, it is equivalent to repaying the favors he owes to the villagers. Whether it is the village chief Mu Dingcheng or other village officials, Mu Zhengfeng can say without hesitation that he doesn't owe them anything.
On the contrary, Mu Mingwang, who was rushing to pay back money when selling a house, was similar to Mu Mingwang's urge to pay back money. Even if it was urged to pay back money, it might not be Mu Mingwang's true thoughts. But Mu Zhengfeng still remembered that Mu Mingwang was bitten by a poisonous snake that time, and it was the grandfather who saved his life.
Is life-saving grace really worth only 3,000 yuan?
At least Mu Zhengfeng knew that when he saw the villagers, he could raise his head and chest because he felt no guilt. On the other hand, those people were really not at all worried when they did ungrateful things?
It is said that "a distant relative is worse than a close neighbor." But in Mu Zhengfeng's memory, he had no neighbors next to his old house, but he did not feel the warmth brought by many village neighbors. Instead, he became sensible, and his family seemed to have become a laughing stock among the villagers.
First, my mother never returned, and then my father died unexpectedly. If my grandfather had not been famous in the ten villages and eight villages, I am afraid that the three brothers and sisters of the Mu family would have enjoyed the taste of being bullied since childhood.
Is it possible to expect Mu Zhengfeng to be too grateful for such a village?
After the younger brother had an accident in his previous life and his sister disappeared, Mu Zhengfeng, who had returned from the army, beat Mu Minggen up and scolded the village cadres so hard that they could not raise their heads. He left like his younger brother and sister and never came back.
Just as everyone thought that the three brothers and sisters of the Mu family sold their house and left the village just like Mu Mingli's family earlier, they spent two days, and finally erected the finished bamboo house.
Looking at the erected outer frames, the younger brother and sister were also excited and said: "Wow, brother, is this house going to be built so high?"
"Well! Have you forgotten the design drawings I drew before? The bamboo house we built has two floors, and we will all live in the room upstairs. In that case, if you sit at home or stand outside the window, you can also see the scenery outside the window, are you happy?"
"Well! Then, what are we going to do next?"
"First lay the underground floor, and after the first floor is built, then build the second floor!"
After the outer frame was erected, Mu Zhengfeng began to consider pouring cement on the ground on the first floor. But for now, he felt that he could wait a little longer, first paste the bamboo exterior walls on the outer side of the first floor, and then install the planned wire pipes.
Three months were enough to build a bamboo house in Mu Zhengfeng's opinion. After his younger brother and sister went to school, he had enough spare time every day. As for his own acres of land, there were not many things that really needed him to worry about.
What Ling Mu Zhengfeng didn't expect was that, as usual, he took his younger brother and sister to work in the bamboo forest and suddenly saw an uninvited guest. The first time he saw the visitor, the three brothers and sisters were stunned for a moment, as if they seemed very surprised.
After hesitating for a while, Mu Zhengfeng still stepped forward and said, "Second uncle, why are you here?"
The man in front of me who had a very complicated expression when he saw the bamboo house was his biological uncle who had not been in contact for several years. As for severing contact with his uncle's family, it was naturally because of his mother's affairs. But Mu Zhengfeng knew that it was no wonder that these uncles were not in the blame for this matter.
To be honest, Mu Zhengfeng is not without relatives and trust in his hometown. At least his mother's family has two younger brothers and one younger sister. This means that he has two uncles and an aunt.
Unfortunately, because of my mother's affairs, the two families completely cut off contact. The most heartbreaking thing is that my father passed away that year and told his grandfather to not let his mother and his family come to worship.
Over time, many villagers felt that the Mu family and mother's family were completely old and never interacted with each other. But Mu Zhengfeng knew that his grandfather's family would not interact with him, so he might feel guilty!
At least one thing Mu Zhengfeng knew very well, that was, when he learned that his mother was out and abandoned her family and followed the rich man. His grandfather, who had a hot temper and had a very serious face, was so angry that he fell ill and said bluntly that he did not have this daughter.
At the beginning, both uncles and aunts felt that the eldest sister chose to separate from Mu Zhengfeng's father, which was more of a relationship. But three years later, Mu Zhengfeng's grandfather passed away, and Mu Zhengfeng's mother did not return, and both uncles and aunts were very angry.
Until now, Mu Zhengfeng's mother has left home for nearly seven years. The last time Mu Zhengfeng died, his two uncles did not come for some reason. Gradually, Mu Zhengfeng, who was reborn, almost forgot that he had relatives.
Looking at his second uncle Bai Axiong with a complicated and silent expression, Mu Zhengfeng still pulled his younger brother and sister and said, "Xiaoyan, Xiaoxuan, this is Axiong!"
"Uncle!"
Listening to the salutes of the two children, thinking of the sister he didn't want to mention now, Bai Axiong still said in a tangled manner: "Oh! Xiaofeng, do you still recognize me as my uncle?"
"Uncle, do you recognize me or not? Are you also my uncle? Uncle is here today, is that?"
In Mu Zhengfeng's memory in his previous life, after the death of his grandfather in his previous life, his two uncles and aunts didn't seem to have much contact with their families. The only thing they remember was that it seemed that the younger sister had mentioned that someone came to school to send her food and new clothes.
But at that time, Mu Zhengfeng had already gone to the city to study in high school. My younger brother and my younger sister were basically in the house where I adopted my younger brother Mu Minggen. Until Mu Zhengfeng dropped out of high school and signed up for the army, he had never met these uncles.
When Mu Zhengfeng was old and had been away from home for a long time, he almost forgot that in this mountain, he actually had relatives!
Thinking of this, Mu Zhengfeng, who was reborn, could only smile bitterly in his heart and scold "cao egg's life"!
Looking at the child left by the three elder sisters in front of him, Bai Axiong said directly: "I heard that someone forced you to sell your house? I went to your village and scolded your village chief. They were not worthy of being your elders at all."
Upon hearing this, Mu Zhengfeng also smiled bitterly and said, "Uncle, why are you doing this? I only have three brothers and sisters in my family, so it is normal for me to be bullied. I will sell the old house. Anyway, my younger brother and sister feel scared to live there."
"The old house is sold, where do you live? Wait, do you plan to build a house here? Who made this house?"
From what my second uncle said, Mu Zhengfeng also knew that this uncle should pay attention to the lives and situation of his brother and sister. It was just because of his face, and Mu Zhengfeng did not take the initiative to ask for help, so they were not good at helping.
But this time, I learned that Mu Mingli and the village officials in Mujiazhai forced his nephew to sell the old house. Although he was given 10,000 yuan, for three unemployed children, losing a house does not mean losing a home?
Bai Axiong, who really couldn't sit still, came to Mujiazhai to scold the village chief who was already guilty, and scolded the village cadres again. In short, the village chief and the village cadres felt that they were thrown out of the village.
People need shame and trees need bark. Especially in rural areas, the reputation of the village is sometimes very important. In recent years, it has become increasingly difficult for young people in Mujiazhai to get married, which has a lot to do with Mujiazhai's bad reputation.
In the surrounding villages, who would marry her daughter to a village where the villagers quarrel every now and then, and the villagers are still intriguing in private? Now that this is happening again, it is normal for the villagers in the surrounding villages to laugh at it.
When facing the second uncle's inquiry, Mu Zhengfeng also smiled and said, "I did it! Actually, after my grandfather passed away, I wanted to bring my brother and sister out to move out. The conditions here are good, and the bamboo forest belongs to me, so I want to build a bamboo house."
"You have this ability?"
"If you want to be the head of the family, you have to take good care of your younger brothers and sisters, you have to learn some skills. My uncle, although they are not authentic in selling old houses, but my grandfather's death depends entirely on their help. Forget this matter!"
"You! OK! I still recognize my uncle for you, so I will take care of your affairs in the future!"
