Chapter 528: Proposal (seven)
Ye Lingtian turned around and thought about what to say to Ye Shuang. Ye Shuang had already closed the door and left. Ye Lingtian could only turn back silently and continue to lie on the balcony and bask in the sun. No one knew what he was thinking.
He never expected things to come to this point. When he was in the hospital, he thought a lot. He wanted to hold back his heart and be an ordinary person, marry and have children, and then slowly grow old and die in this city, and live a peaceful life. He felt that he had found a belonging, and his belonging was Li Yuxin. This was the first time in his life that he had a strong desire to get married. But unexpectedly, Li Yuxin refused his proposal and broke up with him. He could not refute Li Yuxin's accusations against him, nor could he say
Without agreeing, he seriously reflected on what Li Yuxin said, and finally felt that Li Yuxin was right. There were many problems with his personality and behavior, and these problems had good sides and bad sides. However, for a woman, these personalities were unfair and could only bring harm to the woman who followed him. Just like what Ye Shuang said before, it was very straightforward, but it was the truth. Ye Lingtian was unwilling to hurt anyone, so he just watched Li Yuxin leave silently, without any retention, and without any anger.
Ye Lingtian stood alone on the balcony for a long time, then turned around and entered the house. Ye Shuang was no longer at home. I don’t know where he went. Ye Lingtian was too lazy to care about her. After taking a shower, he felt so hungry that he looked at the kitchen and had nothing to eat and too lazy to go shopping for vegetables. So he went downstairs and drove to the Spring Store closest to him. It was around 3 o’clock in the afternoon, and there was nothing to eat in ordinary restaurants, and only the Spring Store had something to eat during business hours.
Ye Lingtian ate something casually at the Spring Store. When he walked out of the store, he suddenly found a very serious problem, that is, he didn't know what he should do, and he found that he had nothing to do. This was the first time he had this feeling. He unconsciously drove back to his original old house. After he visited, Ye Lingtian was surprised to find that the original slum was now a pile of ruins, with many construction machinery being demolished at the last point, and many workers were busy.
Seeing this scene, Ye Lingtian not only felt sad. Although this place was broken and dirty, it was a place where he had lived for nearly twenty years. More importantly, it carries the wonderful time of their family together, and now, all this has become a bubble. Originally, Ye Lingtian wanted to buy his house back when he had money. Even if it was a little more expensive, he would have come here today. But now, it is no longer possible. Even if he bought it himself, it still has to be demolished, and there is no meaning.
Ye Lingtian stood beside the car and watched the excavator push down the last little remaining walls of another house, and then loaded the engineering garbage out one by one.
"Master, what are you planning to build after demolishing this place?" Ye Lingtian called out to a passing worker and asked.
"Build a house, haven't you seen it? The whole building needs to be built." The worker left after saying that, but in fact he didn't ask anything, so he came. After all, a worker knows how much he is. They only know that they are here to build a building and just get a salary.
At this moment, Ye Lingtian saw a former neighbor standing not far away and watching an old man, who was almost the only one Ye Lingtian knew. He lived here at the beginning. Like Ye Lingtian's family, he and Ye Lingtian's father were from the same unit and also had a family. The old man's wife passed away earlier and had a son. The son had already started a family. Ye Lingtian had seen the old man's son, daughter-in-law and grandson come to visit the old man. The old man may have had feelings for this place where he lived for the rest of his life. He never moved away and lived with his son, but lived here alone.
Ye Lingtian walked over, handed a cigarette to the old man, and asked, "Uncle Zhang, you are here too."
"Hey, Xiaoye, right? Why are you here too?"
"I'm bored, I happened to pass by here. When I saw that it was demolishing, I came over to see what I was going to build."
"What kind of high-end community should be built? It's a big company. It turns out that they have requisitioned our large area. The land was requisitioned by the government, and the company paid the money. I remember you seemed to have sold the house."
“Yeah, right, I sold it last year”
"That's a pity. The compensation for land acquisition is still good. Replace a unified resettlement house at the South Station at 15 times the original area, or you can compensate the money in one lump sum according to the same area, as if you are compensated for 18,000 square meters."
"That's pretty good, but I was in a hurry to use the money and sold it first. I'm a little loss. What about you, do you want the house or the money?"
"What's the use of asking for a house? I've got the money. I'm living with my son now. In fact, for me, if I can choose, I don't want to change it. This place is where I work. I started working earlier than your father. I was assigned this house shortly after I started working. I was divided into the same group as your father. I have lived here for many years, almost thirty-five years. I've been living here. Although the conditions here have been like this, other places are getting better and better, but this place is getting worse and worse. But after all, I have lived there for so many years, and I have a relationship and I'm reluctant to move away. But this place is indeed out of date and eliminated, affecting the appearance of the city. The government
I agreed to the demolition, and there was no way to agree. I came here today and I could see some shadows now. If I waited for the new community to be built, I would probably not even find any shadows. You came here to see them too, right? You, like my son, have grown up here. My son sighed for a long time when he heard about the demolition here. I remember that you were crazy in the yard all day long. How happy it was at that time. The neighbors were in a happy place. Unlike now, the door was next to the door and the door was facing the door, but they never spoke, and no one knew anyone. When they entered the house, they closed their doors and were in charge of their own affairs. It was too unhumane." The old man sighed for a long time.
