Golden Fishing Village

Ao Mufeng shook his head: "I don't know. It's probably too hot to work on the construction site. Anyway, I saw them coming back from the dock this morning. Your uncle and his family are all back."

Ao Muyang nodded to show that he understood. Lu Zhizi asked: "Are you going to visit your uncle? Or should I eat a watermelon to cool down first?"

"Rest first, there's no rush for other things."

A large iced watermelon was served. After cutting it open, it was full of sandy flesh, with thin skin and lots of water, and the taste was sweet.

Lu Zhizi sliced ​​it and gave it to the two of them, and the general came up again with a shameless face.

She cut a piece for the general, and the general ate the watermelon happily, pressing it and munching on it. In the end, he even ate the watermelon rind.

Ao Muyang didn't pay attention to the general. He was thinking about how to ask his uncle for land.

His father had four brothers. His uncle was the eldest, and there were two brothers between him. His father was the fourth, but now it is confirmed that only his uncle is alive.

As for his second and third uncles, all he knew was that his third uncle fell into the water and got entangled in a fishing net when he was a child. Although the people on the boat urgently fished for him, they still couldn't save his life.

The second uncle was unwilling to stay in the fishing village for his whole life. When he was very young, he abandoned his wife and children and ran away with a southern woman who came to the fishing village to do business. He had been away from Longtou Village for more than 20 years, and there was no news of him in more than 20 years.

Although there were only two people in his family, his eldest uncle and his father, the relationship between the two was average, mainly because his eldest uncle was stingy and mean, and he was greedy for small gains and had a bad heart, which made him very annoying in the village.

Ao Muyang's parents had an accident when they went out to sea. At that time, the two had a fisherman's insurance led by the government. Ao Muyang didn't know how much the insurance paid. His eldest uncle was enthusiastic at the time and went to collect the money and said he would be responsible for the funeral.

In the end, the funeral was so simple. A hole was dug in the mountain, and there was not even a coffin or urn. The reason was that the two had not seen the body, and they would hold a grand ceremony after finding the body later.

According to the customs of the fishing family, both weddings and funerals should be treated with great care, but his uncle Ao Qianxin, as the person in charge, asked his son-in-law to go up the mountain to dig a hole, and didn't even burn paper money. This shows how bad he is!

Ao Muyang was a student who had just graduated from high school at that time. He didn't know anything. The sudden change in his family broke him down and made him behave in a daze in this matter.

There is no doubt that Ao Qianxin embezzled his parents' insurance money. At that time, Ao Fugui's parents told him, but he was ashamed and just wanted to escape, so he didn't care about it.

He gave the family's farmland and the general to Ao Qianxin, and then he didn't even wait for the university admission letter, and packed his luggage early to work in Beijing.

According to the agreement, Ao Qianxin took good care of the general and helped him clean up the old house, and he could use Ao Muyang's farmland for free, but now it seems that he has obviously not fulfilled his contract.

Recalling this incident, after eating the watermelon, he asked Lu Zhizi and Ao Xiaoniu to go to the old house to rest, and took the general to find justice for his uncle's family.

Ao Qianxin's home is also at the east end of the village, not far from Ao Xiaoniu's home, and it also has six large tiled houses.

Like other people who like to take advantage of others, Ao Qianxin is very clever and can make money from anything, so he and the village chief Ao Zhiyi are both rich people in the village.

In the past, Ao Qianxin also had a boat, but when he found that there were no fish in the sea, he decisively sold the boat and took his family to work in Hongyang.

When Ao Muyang walked to the door of his house, a tall and thin middle-aged man was drying firewood. While he was cleaning up, he said in a hoarse voice: "What a curse, there are so many firewoods at home, this prodigal old woman, you can't clean up the house!"

This is his uncle. Ao Muyang walked over and greeted him: "Uncle, when did you come back?"

Hearing his voice, the middle-aged man turned around and tilted his head to look at him. He first looked at his hands, and when he saw that he didn't hold anything in his hands, his mouth suddenly curled, and then he looked at his face.

Seeing his appearance, Ao Qianxin smiled and said, "Oh, it's Yangzi, when did you come back?"

Ao Muyang said, "It was at the beginning of the month, I've been back for a few days, you just came back?"

Ao Qianxin didn't invite him in, he squatted outside the door and chatted: "Well, I came back to do some things, and I have to go to Hongyang later..."

At this point, he looked at Ao Muyang's body and said, "Yangzi, do you want to go to Hongyang with Daddy? Daddy is doing well there, you go and work with Daddy, and you can definitely save enough money to marry a wife in two years."

In the local dialect, Daddy and uncle mean the same thing, but Ao Muyang never called Ao Qianxin Daddy. Given the other person's character, he felt that this would insult the word "daddy".

Ao Muyang shook his head and said, "Forget it, uncle, I'm not going to leave this time. The village is pretty good."

At this time, a young man with golden hair walked to the door. Hearing what he said, the young man snorted, "You haven't seen the prosperity of big cities. You are short-sighted, Yangzi. You really should go to big cities."

The golden-haired young man is Ao Qianxin's son, named Ao Zhuangyuan. Ao Qianxin has a daughter and a son. The son is younger than Ao Muyang and is his cousin.

Ao Muyang glanced at Ao Zhuangyuan indifferently and said, "Well, after I left home, I went to the capital. It's quite big. If it's bigger, I'm afraid I have to go abroad."

Ao Zhuangyuan was choked by him, and then said disdainfully, "What's the point of going to the capital? Working for a poor family? Then you haven't enjoyed the resources of the big city. After enjoying it, you definitely don't want to go back to our poor countryside."

Ao Qianxin knocked on the cement pavement at the door with a rotten piece of wood, and said: "Okay, top scholar, Yangzi is your brother, you should at least act like a younger brother. What about Yangzi, what do you want to talk to me about? Nothing, you see I just came back, and I have a lot of work to do..."

This is his usual style, if there is no advantage to be gained, he will immediately order the guest to leave.

Ao Muyang said: "I mainly came to see the elders, and there is something else, that is, uncle, when I left home, didn't I give you the land to use? Now that I am back, I plan to farm by myself."

Hearing him say this, Ao Qianxin frowned immediately.

He took out a pack of hard Zhonghua and lit it by himself, saying: "What land? You gave me the land to use? Is this true?"

Ao Muyang smiled. He knew that this uncle was stingy and mean, but he didn't expect him to be so shameless. Is he planning to swallow up his nephew's property?

He didn't get angry directly, but said: "Of course it's true. The uncles and uncles in the village know where my family's land is. If you can't remember, I'll call everyone out to talk for you?"

Ao Qianxin frowned immediately: "What do you mean by this? It's as if Daddy owes you the land. Is Daddy that kind of person?"

Ao Muyang smiled and said: "You are not that kind of person, I know, so I came here to ask for my family's land."

He used words to provoke Ao Qianxin, but this trick didn't work on Ao Qianxin, he was an old fox: "If your family has land to rent from me, I will definitely give it to you, but how can your family rent land from me?"

Ao Muyang said: "No, I let you use it for free."

Ao Qianxin shook his head and said: "You are being unreasonable, Yangzi, when did Daddy use your land for free? Is it your aunt who uses it? Zhuangyuan, call your mother out to ask what's going on."

Ao Zhuangyuan turned around and shouted directly: "Mom, sister, brother-in-law, someone is looking for trouble!"
