After his father said this, he may have felt that saying he would not go home for the New Year might also be referring to Ji Yuanhai, so he added: "Yuanhai, I'm not talking about you, I'm just telling them to go back."

Ji Yuanhai smiled: "Yes, I know."

"Actually, I have discussed it with my brother and we are going back together. You just happened to be here too. Let's go together today."

"Well, it's good, it's good."

The father nodded and said a few words.

Ji Yuanhai returned to Liu Xianglan's house and greeted Lu Heling and Liu Xianglan. He and Lu Heling brought large and small packages of gifts, met with their parents, brother and sister-in-law, and returned home.

The brother and sister-in-law had a bicycle, Ji Yuanhai and Lu Heling had a bicycle, and the father and mother walked twenty miles from the small mountain village.

A group of six people simply piled their things on the bicycles, then walked out of Qingshan County and walked back towards Xiaoshantun.

It is not uncommon for people of this era to walk twenty or thirty miles. It is the New Year, and there are many people going to the county town to buy things and go shopping, so there is no shortage of people walking together along the way.

Ji Yuanhai chatted with his parents, brother and sister-in-law while walking.

"Brother, how are you and your sister-in-law living now?" Ji Yuanhai asked, "Are you tired?"

Ji Yuanshan replied cheerfully: "Why is this tiring? If you do some cooking work a day and work for more than half a day, you can earn a lot of money, hundreds a month. No iron rice bowl can compare with this. "

Upon hearing this, sister-in-law Ma Xiuping said: "This is all because Yuan Hai took care of us and gave us such a good opportunity. Otherwise, how could we have such a good life if we were farming in the countryside?"

"That's what happened!" Ji Yuanshan came over and gestured with Ji Yuanhai with five fingers happily, "I have saved so much! If I work for another year, I will be a household worth ten thousand yuan. Our grandparents and parents, from now on I will I can take care of you. You can do big things outside without worrying about me, but I am at home."

He was really sincere and told Ji Yuanhai everything about the bankers in his family.

Ji Yuanhai saw how happy he looked, and then glanced sideways at his parents. Some memories flashed before his eyes, which was really touching.

After working hard to reach the provincial capital, he had already gotten rid of the original life trajectory in the old cripple's memory, including his eldest brother Ji Yuanshan's marriage and his mother's relatives.

It was he who chatted and laughed with Yue Feng and Meng Zhaoying in the provincial capital, and had a deep affection with Feng Xue; it was he who was now walking on the dirt road, step by step back to Xiaoshantun.

While Ji Yuanhai was feeling quite emotional, he actually also had some ideas - giving out one-tenth of the money he had now would be a great help to his family, and he should help them relax and live a better life. day.

This is why he asked Ji Yuanshan if he was tired in the first place.

Ji Yuanhai pondered for a moment and said, "Brother, I think you are still a little too busy and tired in the morning."

Ji Yuanshan and Ma Xiuping shook their heads together. Ji Yuanshan said: "I'm not tired, I really am not tired!"

Ma Xiuping said this: "Yuan Hai, are you trying to help us again? I feel that this matter needs to be explained clearly. We will all remember that you helped us."

"Now that our life is getting better and better, you can no longer help us with money."

"We are living a good life now, there is no need to change."

When Ji Yuanhai heard this, he saw that both his brother and sister-in-law were serious, and realized that it was good for him to help his family, but he also had to consider his family's choices.

"Brother," Ji Yuanhai advised, "You have just passed the exam to have one child. Shouldn't you have two more children? You two are so busy, why do you have children?"

Ji Yuanshan smiled bitterly and said: "I have this idea, but I won't let it happen now."

The mother also said: "I haven't heard anyone say that we should take care of this in the past two years. We should ask for two more. Now it is no longer possible. The loudspeakers in the village keep saying that they are serious about it."

Ji Yuanhai was startled for a moment, then suddenly realized: "Oh...that's true..."

Ji Yuanhai didn't like to talk about this topic, so he returned to the original topic: "Brother, I really want to help our family improve our life. Are you and your sister-in-law really not considering it?"

"Don't think about it, there's nothing to think about!" Ji Yuanshan said, "Yuan Hai, we both have nothing else to do now. We are busy making money to support our family. We make a lot and live a solid life."

"If you give me a lot more benefits, I won't be able to sleep well, I'll feel very uncomfortable."

Ma Xiuping also smiled and said: "That's right, that's the truth. Yuan Hai, just listen to your brother this time, and don't give me any more. There is no shortage of anything at home."

Ji Yuanhai looked at his parents: "Father, mother... where are you? I make a lot of money outside, eat and drink well, and you work in the fields at home, and there are grandparents. I am not living a comfortable life either."

"I want to help you and make your life better."

After hearing this, the father and mother looked at each other and were both a little silent.

They are now considered to be in their prime, not yet fifty years old. If they just work on the land like this, they will indeed make little money.

In particular, Xiaoshantun itself is at the foot of a hill. The surrounding environment is rocky and there is not much arable land. After the production team divided the fields, the family only had a few acres of land in total.

After hesitating for a while, his father said: "We can't rely entirely on your grandparents for the work in the fields. Besides, I only know how to farm and nothing else. I'm not as good as your third uncle, who can still be a leader in the brigade." Accounting."

Ji Yuanhai asked his parents if there was anything they wanted to do for a living. His mother shook her head and looked at his father.

My father thought for a moment and said, "I don't know how to do business in the county."

"But I can't stand it if you let me relax and enjoy your filial piety; don't say I can't stand it, your grandparents can't stand it either. Our family is not the kind of family that eats, drinks and has fun. We all have to do some work. .”

After hearing his father's thoughts, Ji Yuanhai became more and more relieved about his family.

It seems that when you get money, you only think about eating and drinking, and lose yourself. This situation will not happen in your own home.

"Actually, parents, elder brothers and sisters-in-law, I am also lacking some reliable manpower outside... Do you want to go to the provincial capital or Lucheng to help me?" Ji Yuanhai asked.

His parents, brother and sister-in-law all responded by shaking their heads. None of them were willing to leave their hometown. For them, leaving Qingshan County means entering a strange world outside, and they have no psychological preparation.

As they were talking, a "chunk, chu, chu" sound came from behind. Ji Yuanhai's family of six moved out of the way to let a tractor behind them, which was emitting black smoke, pass.

When Ji Yuanhai saw his father staring at the tractor, he had an idea: "Dad, can I buy a car for the family? Dad, you can help the county stone carving factory pull stones, the sand and gravel factory transport sand and gravel, and you can also help the family. Farm work.”

My father was a little surprised and a little uneasy: "A tractor? How much does it cost? Is this suitable? Don't waste your money."

Ji Yuanhai smiled and said: "Dad, feel free to use it! For me, this money is not too much."

My father was finally moved and relaxed.

"Let's go home and discuss it... and see what your grandparents say."

Ji Yuanhai also nodded.

Talking and talking along the way, when we finally arrived at Xiaoshantun, my father suddenly remembered something and said to Ji Yuanhai: "Yuanhai, please be careful."

"Now that the three Wang brothers have been released from prison, they have been in prison. They are all so fierce that even your seventh uncle dare not glare at them; we are all good people and we will not risk our lives by messing with them. "

Ji Yuanhai was stunned for a moment, and then he suddenly understood what Mr. Zhao meant by paying attention to safety today.

It turns out that the three Wang brothers were all released after serving their sentences.

Then Ji Yuanhai smiled and said: "Dad, they don't care about their lives. At most they will go to jail and live in the world. If they are forced to fight hard, they may not dare."

After hearing this, my father felt a little uneasy: "They may not dare, but we are living a good life and don't even dare to think about it!"

"We don't want to fight with them, Yuan Hai, you are a college student now. You will have a good life after graduating from college, let alone be like them."

Ji Yuanhai nodded slightly, but thought to himself - of course there was no need for him to argue with the Wang family, but would the three Wang brothers really be honest?

However, this matter generally does not lead to any surprises.

After all, the Ji family in Xiaoshantun are united as one, and it would not be easy for the Wang family to bully others.

As for the possibility of the three Wang brothers becoming desperadoes, Ji Yuanhai doesn't think it's too big. This time during the Chinese New Year, we can observe it by the way.

After entering the village, the children gathered together to set off firecrackers, throw the firecrackers, and play with glass balls... When the adults saw Ji Yuanhai's family of six returning, they all came over to say hello in surprise.

Ji Yuanshan and his wife didn't go home often, let alone Ji Yuanhai and his wife. They hadn't been back for a full year, and everyone in the village came over to talk to them as if they were surprised.

Talking all the way to the village, the seventh uncle Ji Baotian and Ji Yuanhai's second uncle and third uncle also came after hearing the news.

They all entered the house, and their grandparents were also full of joy. They greeted each other and sat down to talk.

Ji Yuanhai and Lu Heling also spoke politely.

It was not until dinner in the evening that the busyness calmed down.

During dinner, his father told his grandfather that Ji Yuanhai wanted to buy a tractor for the family. Grandpa thought about it for a while, but did not refuse: "It's a good thing that Yuan Hai has this intention. But a good thing like a tractor, What did our family buy it for?"

My father said: "I drive it, and I usually pull rocks and sand to make money. When the farming season is busy, I can help the family with work, which can save a lot of energy."

"That really saves effort." Grandpa said, "You think it is useful, and Yuan Hai is sincere about it, so we will buy it."

"But I have to say this up front. A tractor is a valuable thing; you have to drive it and use it. You can't leave it at home to rot, let alone lend it out."

Father nodded and assured: "Dad, I know."
