Fight the Giants

  Chapter 20 Yang Family Village

  Huo Erhuai and Yang Shi couldn't help being sad when they mentioned the past, Huo Xi hurriedly comforted them.

   Yang didn't feel sad for long, after all, it's been ten years. What should be light is also light. Looking at Huo Erhuai: "His father, do you want to go back to Huojiaba to buy a homestead?"

  The identity of the son-in-law is looked down upon by the world. Yang didn't want him to feel regretful.

  Huo Erhuai was silent, Yang Fu pouted, and muttered in a low voice: "None of those members of the Huo family are fuel-efficient lamps."

   "What are you talking about!" Yang stopped him.

  Yang Fu pursed his lips and stopped talking.

  But Huo Xi could tell that Yang Fu didn't want Huo Erhuai to settle down in Huojiaba. He is still young now, so he has to be an oil bottle and follow him to Huojiaba.

  Huo Erhuai sighed: "Let's go to Yangjia Village and meet with the villager before talking about it."

   Yang nodded in agreement.

  After Huo Erhuai went to the stern to rock the boat, Yang went to the bow to deal with the small crabs, Yang Fu pulled Huo Xi and whispered.

  Now that Huo Xi and Huo Nian are his real nephews, Yang Fu has a lot to say to her.

"The Huo family doesn't have a good one. Brother-in-law wants to play Qiufeng as soon as he has some money. They are all people who only recognize money, otherwise they would not let brother-in-law into my family at the beginning. I got a lot of money by selling my son. Every year my brother-in-law returns to Huojiaba And a layer of skin was scraped."

   "So you don't want us to live in Huojiaba?"

  Yang Fu nodded: "Well, the Huo family has many things to do."

  Huo Xi expressed understanding, and thought again, "I didn't know it at the beginning, and Nian'er took my father's surname. Why didn't mother say to change our surname to Yang this time when I was registered?"

   "The Yang family has me now. The ones my sister gave birth to before also have the same surname as her brother-in-law's Huo."

  Huo Xi understood.

   While speaking, the boat staggered and arrived at Yangjia Village in Jiangning County.

  Yangjia Village is adjacent to the tributary of the Qinhuai River. I heard that there are many fishing boats in the village, but most of them only catch some fish and shrimps in the Heli River during the day and sell them for money, and return to the village at night.

  Huo Erhuai rowed the boat to the ferry where the boat stopped in Yangjiacun, tied the boat rope to the boat tie stone, and helped the family get off the boat.

   All the way into the village, those who didn’t know each other stared at them curiously, and those who knew each other greeted them from afar: “It’s Jinxi’s big girl. Why did you go back to the village?”

  Yang hugged Huo Nian, greeted the villagers with a smile, and exchanged greetings with the villagers from time to time.

   Stopped and walked, walked through the village all the way, and arrived at the village Zheng's house in the middle of the village, which is also the house of the head of the Yang family.

  Patriarch Yang Guangkui stared blankly at the pastries, a piece of meat, and two jars of rice wine on the table.

  The eldest girl of Jinxi's family took her younger brother out of the village to ask for a living. She hasn't returned for a long time. Why did she come back suddenly? So many presents?

  Looked at her and Yang Fu, and then at the people who followed her.

   "Yang Fu is already this old?"

   "Hello, patriarch, grandpa."

   "Hey, good." Yang Guangkui gave Yang Fu a relieved look. Although dark and thin, but looking at the spirit, it seems that it has been cultivated, otherwise Jinxi's family would really be wiped out.

  Looking at Mrs. Yang: "Chunying, you are back to the village this time, is there something wrong?"

  Mr. Yang reported the intention of coming to Yang Guangkui.

   "These two children belong to your family?" Yang Guangkui looked sharply at the boy in Huo Xi and Huo Erhuai's arms.

  These two children are raised really well, white and delicate, they don't look like Chunying or Huo Erhuai. Shouldn't he look like Yang Fu?

Seeing the patriarch looking at the two children, Yang hurriedly stepped forward and cried miserably: "I have been pregnant with several babies in the past ten years, and only these two survived. The patriarch doesn't know how afraid my husband and I are that these two children will not be able to support them." , I usually make fine rice and fine noodles, raise them carefully, and don’t let the children out of the cabin when I’m idle.”

  Yang Guangkui nodded, the girl should be pampered. It's just that she is so pampered that she doesn't look like a fisherman's daughter anymore.

He also heard Mrs. Yang say: "My little one is only over a hundred days old. He is a boy. My father and I pointed out that he will lead the family in the future. I was afraid that I would not be able to support myself, so I thought about going back to the village to buy a house with an acre or two. , build a house in the village and bring them back to live in the village.”

   "Do you want to live ashore?" I haven't had this idea for ten years, why did I suddenly have it?

  Yang Guangkui looked at the kid in Huo Erhuai's arms, his eyes rolled curiously. That's right, this child is lively and pleasing to the eye. If she can't support her, Chun Ying and her son-in-law may cry to death.

  He stretched out his hand to Huo Nian to touch him, but Huo Nian smiled and stretched out his small hand to grab his fingers, oh oh, as if greeting him.

  Yang Guangkui was very happy and teased for a while.

  Nodding: "It's good that you have this idea. The child is still young, so he can't stand the wind and waves on the river."

  Seeing that the patriarch agreed, Yang was overjoyed.

   "It's just this homestead. As you all know, our village is close to the capital, and the land price is more expensive than other places." The patriarch glanced at Yang and Huo Erhuai, wondering if he could afford it.

  Huo Xi saw that the woman of the patriarch's family was looking at them, and saw that Yang was about to speak, so he gave her a hand: "Mother, brother is hungry, you feed him."

  Ms. Yang was taken aback, and glanced at Huo Xi: "Oh, good." After taking Huo Nian, led by the patriarch's daughter-in-law, she went to a shelter to breastfeed Huo Nian.

  Huo Xi looked at Huo Erhuai, and Huo Erhuai said: "Through these years, I have thought about going ashore and living frugally, but I have saved a few taels of silver."

  The patriarch nodded, glanced at Huo Xi, and didn't say much.

He only said: "Now that the new dynasty has just established, many people have poured into the capital, and the land prices here have also risen accordingly. Now the homestead costs three and a half taels of silver per mu, and good land is twelve taels per mu. Don't think it's too expensive, Now many people in the capital want to buy Zhuangzi, and they all found our area."

  Huo Xi clicked his tongue. Didn't mother say that the homestead only needs three taels?

  Huo Erhuai also has sour teeth. After regaining consciousness, he nodded: "Then my family will buy a two-acre homestead. Yang Fu will grow up in a few years, so we have to set aside a place for him to build a house."

  The patriarch felt comforted when he heard that he had plans for Yang Fu. Without exchanging pleasantries, I got up to take them to choose a homestead.

   Yang fed Huo Nian well, and followed him in her arms.

  The family was walking in the village, and the villagers who got the news all followed to watch the excitement.

   It is heard that the eldest girl of Yang Jinxi's family brought her younger brother back to the village to buy a homestead to build a house and a field. Many people feel that she has developed.

  The family followed the patriarch to pick a homestead in the village. All the good places in the village have been picked by people. Every family has children and grandchildren who grow up, separate households and families, build houses, and look for homesteads in the very outskirts of the village.

   After searching around, Mrs. Yang was not satisfied.

  Before, her home was in the middle of the village. It was a big place with green brick and tile houses. Now it was bought by the clan elders, and it is impossible to buy it back. I never thought that if I wanted to live again, I would have to move to the outskirts of the village.

   Yang frowned. Huo Erhuai and Yang Fu followed behind without saying a word. Huo Xi walked around to have a look.

  If you want her to say, it’s good to live in the outskirts, far away from crowds, quiet, and there’s not much right and wrong. Choose a place close to the ferry to make it easier for them to go out.

  The family was just watching on a barren slope, and a few women from a distance walked over together, shouting: "Chunying, Chunying" and walked towards them quickly.
