rebirth of cataclysm

In rural areas, land is the lifeblood for farmers. In China's thousands of years of history, almost every change of dynasty revolves around land. The most basic demand of every peasant movement is land.

Farmers almost believe in their hearts that only by owning land can they avoid starvation and poverty.

So when Hu Mingchen proposed to exchange the small piece of land for Hu Mingchen's family to cut trees, Liu Chunhua and Hu Jianye's first reaction was to refuse.

When the family was separated, they fought hard to get a little more land. Now, in order to let Hu Mingchen's family cut down a tree that has no use in fact, it is normal for Liu Chunhua to be unwilling to give up the land.

Has Hu Mingchen become the kind of landowner with old wealth? Does he just want to gather more and more land? Of course not, Hu Mingchen is not that narrow-minded.

Hu Mingchen knows very well that now people care about the land as their lifeblood. In a few years, people will not even plant it. Why? Of course, farming is too uneconomical compared to working.

After working hard all year round, the income may not be as good as working in the city for one or two months. With such a sharp contrast, especially for young people, who would choose to face the loess and back to the sky?

Farming.

What's more, working in the city not only makes money, but also increases your knowledge and enjoys a convenient life. Over time, the land at home will either fall into disuse or be cultivated beyond the ability of the old man.

Of course, the current wave of going out to work has already begun in Duge Township, but it is not widespread enough. Many people still stay at home and farm.

"Your family is just cutting down trees, but my family wants to give you a piece of land. No, my family won't do it. It doesn't make any difference at all." Liu Chunhua hesitated, glared at Hu Jianye and said.

Hu Jianye actually wanted to object to this conditional proposal, but with Liu Chunhua present, Hu Jianye couldn't say what he wanted to say. If his ideas were contrary to her, he would have to be scolded by her. So he simply shut up for the time being and waited for her to express her position.

Let’s talk about it later.

Of course Hu Jianye's performance made Liu Chunhua dissatisfied. For a big man to do such a thing, he still had to look at his wife's face, so he was a coward.

Don't think that Liu Chunhua is happy everywhere because she eats Hu Jianye to death. She also doesn't want to bear the reputation of that "tigress". Besides, if the man in her family has the ability, opinion, and ability, who will

Would a woman object? Who wouldn’t want to be a small rural person who is cared for all the time? Hu Jianye couldn’t support the family.

"If you cut down a sacred tree in my house for no reason, my family can't even get a deal. Anyway, this is my family's condition. If you are willing, you can change it. If you don't, let it go. It's not that my family is forcing it. It's impossible for your family to take advantage of all the good things, while my family doesn't even have a hair.

I can't even stand up to it." Hu Mingchen insisted on the conditions he proposed without leaving any room for concession.

"Hmph, you have such a strong tone. You are a little kid, can you do this?" Liu Chunhua snorted and looked at Jiang Yucai.

No matter how capable Hu Mingchen is, Liu Chunhua doesn't think that such a big thing can be done with just one word.

"He can make the decision. In fact, my family doesn't want to cut it down. What can be done with your piece of land? Nothing can be done with it. If it is planted, it will kill ten trees that are full of grain. What's the use? On the contrary, it's my family's tree.

The tree is a sacred tree, and cutting it down will most likely affect feng shui and fortune, so my family is not willing to change it. No matter what, the tree belongs to my family and grows in my land, but my family just doesn’t want to cut it down," Jiang Yucai said.

Jiang Yucai's words were full of contradictions, as if they could exchange and talk, but also as if they didn't want to talk at all.

In fact, Jiang Yucai didn't think that much at all. He only knew that his son Hu Mingchen had to give him some face and not let what he said sound like farts. On the other hand, Jiang Yucai also made up his mind that a smart person like Liu Chunhua

, it is simply impossible to exchange a piece of land for that tree. Even if the piece of land is not big and cannot grow much, it is still a piece of land anyway.

Liu Chunhua is a very calculating person, and she has no reason to make such an exchange that seems unflattering. Otherwise, Liu Chunhua would not have said the above words, so Jiang Yucai's words are full of logical contradictions.

.

To sum up, in one sentence, Jiang Yucai was not willing to cut down trees at all.

However, Jiang Yucai made a mistake that was not a mistake, that is, she should not have stated Liu Chunhua's actual thoughts while reiterating the importance of the tree.

If Jiang Yucai hadn't mentioned anything about Feng Shui or luck, maybe Liu Chunhua would have continued to insist and not be willing to exchange. But after Jiang Yucai reminded her, Liu Chunhua was shaken.

Why did Liu Chunhua insist on letting Hu Mingchen's family cut down the so-called sacred tree? Wasn't it because she couldn't see that Hu Mingchen's family was getting better and better, and she really thought that it was the protection of the sacred tree that made his family have this kind of luck.

Liu Chunhua could accept good things from other people's families, but she just couldn't see Hu Mingchen's family living better and better than his family. The greater the changes in Hu Mingchen's family's life and the richer they became, the harder it was for Liu Chunhua to accept it.

In Liu Chunhua's heart, if Hu Mingchen's family continues like this, won't his family become worse and worse? Then what confidence will he have in speaking out in the future, and how can he express his sense of superiority and authority?

That's why he deliberately tried to destroy the fortune of Hu Mingchen's family. Her idea was no longer about poverty but about inequality. It seemed a little perverted and obsessed, but it was still understandable.

Anyway, there are always a group of people in society who look down upon the good things of others. The closer the people are, the more they look down upon them.

"Jiang Yucai, did you just say that if my family is willing to give that piece of land to your family, your family will be willing to cut down that tree. Don't deny it. That's what you just said. There are other people at the scene.

Man, if you deny it, don't blame me for looking down on you." Liu Chunhua did not hesitate to say threatening words in order to force Jiang Yucai.

"You..." Jiang Yucai was so crowded that she was speechless.

She did have that intention just now, but Liu Chunhua forced him so hard and threatened her so hard, which made her feel very uncomfortable.

"Mom, yes, it's no big deal, just agree. Our family is a trustworthy family and will never let go of a cannon." Hu Mingchen was afraid that his mother would be so angry that she would sternly refuse, so he quickly advised her.

Jiang Yucai looked at Hu Mingchen and saw that Hu Mingchen kept blinking at her. Although she didn't know what Hu Mingchen's blinking meant, Jiang Yucai at least understood that Hu Mingchen meant to let her continue what he meant.

"So what, is your family willing?" Jiang Yucai said weakly and not completely sure.

In addition to Hu Mingchen's wink, Jiang Yucai didn't want to show weakness in front of Liu Chunhua, and she didn't really want to cut down the tree, so she made such a reluctant statement.

"Okay, what you said, daughter-in-law of the Tong family, what you heard next to me, was said by Jiang Yucai, please help to be a witness. I agreed, and the land will be given to your family. In exchange, your family

That old tree must be cut down as soon as possible." Liu Chunhua now recalled Li Xiuju's existence, and pulled Li Xiuju in who originally planned to just sit aside and watch the fun.

"I can't bear witness to this, lest I get scolded again. It's none of my business what you two say or do." Li Xiuju, who still had a grudge against Liu Chunhua, complained.

Li Xiuju actually didn't know that Hu Mingchen actually wanted the land, otherwise, her story would have been different.

Li Xiuju's position has naturally shifted towards Hu Mingchen's family, so she feels that her refusal is helping Hu Mingchen's family.

"Aunt Tong, it doesn't matter. Just do me a favor and prove that as long as the land is changed, my trees will be cut down. This is a matter of your coming and going. It's not a big deal." Hu Mingchen said to Li Xiujuyou in turn.

"Huh? Xiaochen... you have to think carefully. Some people say that the sacred tree is not effective, but some people still think it is effective... Are you really willing to cut it down? Your land

, plus the desolate slope, it’s not a small thing.” Li Xiuju thought that Hu Mingchen didn’t think carefully, so she reminded her kindly.

While talking, Li Xiuju deliberately glanced at Jiang Yucai a few times to remind her not to be disturbed by Hu Mingchen's ignorance.

"Xiaochen, what Auntie said makes sense..." Jiang Yucai said.

"Mom, don't worry, I know what I'm talking about. Let's keep our word and do what we say. Just change it, there's nothing wrong with it. If the peach tree at Dad's house is not covered, we will have an extra peach tree in our house.

By purchasing some land to grow vegetables, you can kill two birds with one stone." Hu Mingchen participated in the interview and told Jiang Yucaiyou.

"Okay, then it's settled. That piece of land belongs to your family. Tomorrow your family will cut down the trees." Liu Chunhua quickly agreed with Hu Mingchen's words in order to cook the raw rice into cooked rice.

"It's not up to us to change the land ownership. Tomorrow, your family will call the village chief Wu Chuhui, and then call the grandparents. Our two families will write a document and make a sign, and then we can count." Hu Mingchen said.

.

Hu Mingchen was really afraid that something would happen to Liu Chunhua again in the future. When her family cut down a tree, she would turn against her again. Others couldn't do this kind of thing, but that was not necessarily the case for Liu Chunhua. What if she came to say it?

There is no basis for it, and we will have to argue again when the time comes.

Therefore, Hu Mingchen either does not do it, or if he does, he must strive to make it perfect and leave no chance of retracting his confession, thereby eliminating future troubles.

"Okay, what I said is, Hu Jianye, you go to Wu Chuhui right away and ask him to come down tomorrow to help." Liu Chunhua herself was afraid that Hu Mingchen's family would regret it, so she decided to cut the mess quickly without delay.

Long nights and many dreams.

"Oh." Hu Jianye replied reluctantly.

"You bastard, hurry up. What are you waiting for here? It's already dark. Hurry up and come back to feed the pigs." Liu Chunhua urged impatiently.

"I came here to ask you to feed the pigs, but why did I come back to feed the pigs after I left?" Hu Jianye complained in a low voice.
