Rebirth: I built a poor mountain village into a paradise

Chapter 16 Family's Incomprehension

Li Youquan's tone rose a bit.

"Why did you borrow money from others?"

"Hire people to open up wasteland and plant flowers!"

This sentence silenced the old couple. At first, they thought their son was just playing around. Besides, they had been farming all their lives and had helped others dig the ground before, but they never thought that one day, their son would actually do it.

Borrow money to hire someone else to dig the ground.

I borrowed the money from Zhang Man. Although he lived in my home and got along harmoniously, this was only before last night.

In their eyes, a girl's innocence is extremely important.

They even suspected that Zhang Man wanted to take revenge through this incident just because he had ruined his reputation.

Guifen seemed to have thought about it for a long time, and then said sincerely: "Son, your father and I are not worried about the fact that you are responsible for planting flowers in the barren hills and selling them."

"Then you are still borrowing money from others and hiring people to open up wasteland and plant flowers. If you lose money, have you thought about the consequences?"

"Listen to Mom's advice, you should just follow Uncle Li's son in the village to work and don't think about starting your own business."

After hearing these words, Li Xueyang's mood became much heavier, before he could even wait for him to speak.

Li Youquan took up the topic again.

"Even if you want to start a business, you can rely on your own skills to save money for three or four years, and then start a business again. It's not too late. I borrowed money for more than ten years and still haven't paid it back."

"I understand the pain of paying back money better than you do. You have to listen to my advice, son."

Those old hands covered with thick calluses patted Li Xueyang's shoulders, seeming to tell the story of the ups and downs of the past ten years.

Especially after raising two children, I have always borrowed money to live. Every time I have some spare money, the first thing I do is to borrow money from others and pay it back.

For a long time, their family has been under great ideological pressure. Because they have endured hardship, they do not want their children to endure hardship.

Seeing Li Xueyang's silence, Li Youquan continued to speak.

"Your mother is not in good health, and I am already old, so I can't help you much."

"I borrowed more than a thousand yuan, and if I don't pay it back, plus the interest, the whole family will be in trouble!"

"At worst, we will continue to support you, and we won't be able to save you a bite to eat. Don't go out and mess around!"

"Tell me the truth to dad, can you give the money back now?"

Every word was like a heavy hammer hitting his heart, making it difficult for him to breathe, but only Li Xueyang himself knew the situation.

He traveled to this world and carried the system with him. Under so many favorable conditions, it was impossible for him to fail. Li Xueyang also stood up, his face full of determination.

"Mom and Dad, don't worry, I will definitely do something great. I borrowed this money and it has nothing to do with you. You don't have to worry about it all the time."

"I won't pay this money back, and I will start hiring people tomorrow. I will definitely make some achievements by then and show my parents."

Logically speaking, Li Xueyang knew that what he did was right and he shouldn't have any emotional fluctuations.

But perhaps because of the atmosphere of the two old men in the room, Li Xueyang only felt that his heart was a little confused, and he felt very depressed.

"Mom and Dad, I'm leaving first."

After saying that, he walked out without looking back.

Seeing Li Xueyang's insistent walking back, Li Youquan slowly closed his eyes, leaned against the mound wall next to him, looked up at the beam, slowly closed his eyes, and let out a heavy sigh.

That night, Li Youquan fell ill, due to the recurrence of his old heart disease.

The advice of Lin's father and Lin's mother did not make Li Xueyang change his mind, but made him want to continue on his own path. He knew that only by accelerating his development and getting rid of poverty as soon as possible could he convince his parents.

At about nine o'clock the next morning, the sky cleared up and was cloudless.

Li Xueyang came to the small square in the village. His purpose was very simple, which was to come here to ask people to help him open up wasteland.

After breakfast, villagers usually gather in the small square to chat, in small groups, discussing what has happened in the village in recent days. Young and old men gather together to discuss where to go hunting game, or

They were talking about the recent harvest or something like that.

When Li Xueyang came, there were already many people here.

"Hey, isn't this Xueyang? I heard that you wanted to get into the leader's bed but were kicked out? Didn't you succeed at all? Let me tell you what happened at that time."

Li Daqing looked at Li Xueyang with a sneer on his face.

He lost his position as tractor manager because of a bet with Li Xueyang. He was not dealing with it, and after hearing about what happened the night before yesterday, he naturally wanted to come out and ridicule him.

As Li Daqing opened his mouth, a group of old ladies and troublemakers who liked to make trouble also started shouting one after another.

"You must have touched something or seen something, otherwise Leader Zhang would not be so angry."

"Let's think carefully about the situation with everyone. Don't eat alone."

"I think Leader Zhang is good-looking, and you are somewhat convinced. I admire you, you are so courageous!"

"Hahaha!"

There was a lot of frolicking in the small square.

Li Xueyang ignored them, but came to the middle of the square and shouted loudly: "Any uncles, aunts and uncles, are you willing to help me with work? 10 yuan a day does not include food, the main thing is to help me open up wasteland!"

"Except Li Daqing, everyone else can come!"

The words just fell out.

Everyone in the audience was attracted. Those chatting and playing all stopped their movements and looked over.

Feeling the attention of everyone, Li Xueyang directly put the 1,000 yuan he got yesterday in his hand, folded it up and patted it.

"After you finish the work, you can settle the bill on the same day. I'm a good boy. Is there anyone who wants to sign up?"

Immediately afterwards, everyone in the audience was seen rushing towards Li Xueyang.

"Xueyang Yazi counts me as one."

"And me."

"I'm coming too."

Almost all the young men in the audience spoke up. They all regarded Li Xueyang as the one who had taken advantage of him and wanted to share the money.

They had also heard that Li Xueyang had borrowed money for the purpose of growing flowers.

However, the villagers were not optimistic about Li Xueyang from the beginning. If he just made a small fuss on his own, it would be okay, but if he spent money to hire someone, it would be a waste of money.

Several women also tried to persuade Li Xueyang, but Li Xueyang didn't listen and he was still busy with his own affairs.

"Okay, Uncle Da Nong, Uncle Lao Wu, and all the other uncles and uncles, I will remember them all for you."

Li Xueyang took a notebook and wrote everything down, then waved his hand and was about to set off.

At this moment, Li Daqing quickly shouted: "Wait, why don't you want me?"

"I can also clear up wasteland. I can still hold this hoe. Please add me."

Li Xueyang just glanced at it and shook his head: "Uncle Daqing, let's talk about it next time, it's full this time!"
