Xiaoqinghe Village is a rural area under the jurisdiction of S Province. It is about 20 kilometers away from the city and seven or eight kilometers away from the directly affiliated county town.

This small village is surrounded by mountains and water, and natural conditions are very suitable for growing rice, even if it is a typical northern region.

Xiaoqinghe Village has been growing rice since the Ming Dynasty. The rice grown has a unique and delicious taste and is one of the specialties in the provincial capital.

The entire village has more than 300 households, which is a relatively large village in the township. Judging from the scale, it is not even smaller than that of the town.

And because of its characteristic planting, the overall economic conditions of Xiaoqinghe Village are very good.

Although the village is a rural area and is not close to the city, the housing in the village is relatively new, red brick and large tile houses.

It is now 1987, and it has been nearly ten years of reform and opening up.

The changes in Xiaoqinghe Village are also very significant. Although the strong laborers in the village have not yet gone to the city to work on a large scale, they will go to the city to do odd jobs when the farming season comes in winter.

There are rice at home and fish in the river. You can earn some cash during the slack farming period, so the lives of villagers in the village are generally pretty good.

But the best one in the village is Zhu Maocai's eldest brother-in-law Liu Changshan.

Liu Changshan was flexible and brave enough. In the mid-1970s, when the people's food, clothing and food were all based on tickets, he had already secretly brought his own rice, vegetables and fruits picked from the mountain to sell them in the town.

I saved a lot of money quietly.

When the reform and opening up came, he directly opened a small shop in the town, specializing in selling grain from Xiaoqinghe Village, self-grinding sesame oil and various side dishes.

Because he worked early, sold well, and his business was very prosperous.

The next year, I will build a house in the village, with a two-story small foreign house standing out in the middle of a tile house, with a grand and generous appearance.

Two years later, Liu Changshan bought a house in the town and county town, and last year he rode an imported motorcycle directly back.

That motorcycle from China actually cost more than 10,000 yuan.

You should know that looking at the entire Xiaoqinghe Village, except for the Liu family and the village chief’s family, ordinary villagers may not have all their savings.

I can't save so much money in my life, but I let Liu Changshan ride under my butt. Tell me, how can the villagers not envy and jealous of Liu Changshan?!

Liu Changshan's parents were even more proud, and they stood up and raised their heads wherever they went.

Originally, Liu Changshan wanted to take his parents to the town to live, but the two old men were used to living in the countryside. When they went to the town, they didn't know each other and the neighbors left and right, so they had no place to show off.

Moreover, the residents in the town live a good life. If Liu's parents want to be envious and compliment, they can't find a suitable partner.

It’s better to be in the village. You don’t have to spend money on food, accommodation and food. When you are free, you go out to brag about others, and then you will gain a lot of envious gaze.

Another reason is that Liu Changshan also has a younger brother Liu Changhe.

Liu Changshan is promising, but Liu Changhe is just an ordinary farmer. He has no skills and is not flexible enough.

Liu Changhe cannot do anything except farming.

Even during the slack season, everyone went to the city to find work, but Liu Changhe didn't go. There was no way, he was still brave.

The villagers once said, "Hey, the old Liu family's brain and courage are all growing on Liu Changshan alone. Look at Liu Changhe, they both crawled out of the same mother's belly, but they didn't have any ability or courage!"

This is how parents are. Even if they are not intentionally biased, they will subconsciously "rob the rich and help the poor".

The eldest son lives well, but the second son is average, so the Liu family's parents can't help but supplement the second son.

For example, the small foreign house built by Liu Changshan was originally built by him after the separation of the family, but because he bought a house in the town and opened a store, the family of three moved to the town, and the new house at home became empty.

Liu Changshan was filial and wanted to meet him, so he asked his parents to move to his small foreign house.

The Liu family's parents lived with their younger son's family, and the eldest son asked them to live in a new house. They did not refuse and brought their younger son's family over.

It is said to the outside world that the youngest son is here to serve the couple.

In fact, the people in the village and Liu Changshan understand what is going on.

It's just that I'm watching my younger son's life not be good, and I want to pull him out.

Anyway, the eldest son’s house is big, so it’s a waste to keep it without using it. It’s better to ask his brother to help you see the house.

In this way, the small foreign building became Liu Changhe's home. However, Liu Changshan, the real owner, only occasionally lived during the holidays and came back to collect food.

Liu Changshan was not too concerned about this. At least when the villagers said something disagreeable to him, he could still say happily: It’s all his brothers, and it’s nothing to let my younger brother live in my house. Besides, I mainly do it for my parents!

Liu Changshan didn't say a single word of redundant words.

Over time, it was reported in the village that Liu Changshan's reputation of being kind, filial, and not forgetting his roots when he became rich.

Although Liu Changhe seemed to be occupying the nest, he was still very awe of Liu Changshan, the eldest brother.

Maybe I wanted to take advantage of my elder brother, but I never had the idea of ​​occupying a small foreign building.

Nothing else, Liu Changhe is a man who knows himself and knows that with his brain, he can't even plot against his elder brother.

Liu Changhe even understood that since the eldest brother dared to let him move in, he naturally had a backup plan and could easily drive him out in the future.

Instead of thinking about how to plot against your boss’s house all day long, it is better to take good care of your parents and then have a good relationship with your boss. In the future, the boss will definitely take care of him because of his parents and brothers’ relationship.

Liu Changhe could understand that his wife and children would not think so.

Liu Changhe's wife is Yu Yan, and her father is an accountant in Xiaoqinghe Village. The village has a famous iron abacus. Only the reason why his family is taking advantage of others is never the case when others take advantage of their family.

The kind of parents you can teach what kind of children you have.

Yu Yan had nothing else, she was only good at calculating this, exactly like her own father.

When she first moved to the small foreign house, Yu Yan was a little nervous and guilty, but after living there for two years, she regarded this place as her own home.

When Zhu Daniu, the real owner, came back to live for two days, Yu Yan would not say anything in front of her, but she kept talking nonsense behind her back.

As time goes by, her son and daughter have also heard a lot.

Parents should not think that children are ignorant and it doesn’t matter if they say anything in front of them.

In fact, children are much smarter than adults think.

Look, in the summer harvest these days, Liu Changshan came back to collect grain, and also took his wife and children home to check it out.

Yu Yan was unhappy again and cursed a few times in anger, but her daughter Liu Miao heard it all.

Feng Che hugged his daughter and pulled his wife. When he rushed to the Liu family like a gust of wind, Yu Yan was sitting in the yard washing clothes.

Looking up at Feng Che's family, Yu Yan curled her lips secretly: I have never seen such a shameless family. I treat their Yu family as a sucker all day long. They both want money and things, and it is not enough to take advantage of them!

It is said that the boss is smart, but Yu Yan thinks she is stupid. She has chosen a wife, but she has to raise her family.

Yu Yan had already had a lot of objections to keeping a girl for the Zhu family for nothing, and then she saw Zhu Daniu supporting her parents' family from time to time, and she was even more angry.

However, smart people know not to show their emotions.

Although Yu Yan's various opinions were seen, when facing Feng Che and his wife, he smiled and said, "Oh, Maocai and Xiaoni are here. My elder brother and sister-in-law just went out--"

"I know, they went to my house."

Feng Che glanced around and talked to Yu Yan for a few words.

Annie had sharp ears and six senses were also sharp. She noticed a low whimpering sound in a room on the first floor.

Her heart couldn't help but lift, she moved her ears, trying to identify the specific source of the sound.

"Where is the second uncle, the second uncle."

Feng Che found that the Liu family's parents were not in the yard, so he asked politely.

"My dad went to the Maichang, and my mom was in the house. Wait."

As he said that, Yu Yan stood up, wiped the water from her hands on her apron, walked towards the living room, and shouted, "Mom, Maocai and Xiaoni are here."

Liu's mother had already heard Feng Che's voice, but she just didn't want to pay attention.

There is no mother-in-law in the world. She likes her daughter-in-law to use her mother-in-law's money to supplement her mother-in-law's family. Liu's mother dislikes the Zhu family very much.

However, when someone asked her to see her, she could no longer pretend to be inaudible.

Hearing Yu Yan's shouting, Liu's mother looked like she had just heard it and smiled and greeted her, "It's Maocai. Didn't your mother call your sister and your brother-in-law away just now? Why, there's something else."

Feng Che said, "There is nothing else, I'm here to take my Laidi back. By the way, Laidi, why don't you see her?"

When talking about Laidi, a hint of unnatural flashed in Liu's mother and Yu Yan's eyes.

Annie saw it all, and her anxiety became even stronger.

"Oh, Laidi, she is playing with Miaomiao. Then what, wait, I'll call you."

Yu Yan was a little panicked when she thought of the things her daughter did, and turned around and wanted to find someone.

Liu's mother was also a little anxious, not caring about Feng Che's thorns, and kept saying, "Yes, Yu Yan, go and bring Lai Di."

But Annie snatched Yu Yan and walked a few steps to a room with a closed door. Sure enough, there was a whimper coming from here.

Annie was anxious and forgot to control her strength. She raised her feet and kicked her.

Click!

The thick wooden door was kicked into pieces by Annie, which scared Yu Yan and Liu's mother who were following him.
