The carpenter has all the materials and tools at home, so it is convenient to make the base.
Tang Yuanshan's wife watched Han Yuanfang coming over. "Yuanfang, I heard that you paid to hire people to farm the land? Just wait for your second uncle and the two of us. I was busy those days and forgot to tell you."
Han Yuanfang knew that Tang Yuanshan's daughter-in-law just said nice things, but even if she prevented Tang Yuanshan from helping his parents solve their problems, she was unwilling to get close to her.
"Second aunt, please take the trouble. I don't want you and my second uncle to be too tired."
Liu Cuihong twitched her lips and said, "How tired can you be? You're a kid who only sees outsiders."
Tang Yuanshan's work is very fast. Although he has never made this kind of base before, he knows how to do it at a glance.
"Yuanfang, how high is the base? Sit aside and try it."
Han Yuanfang moved a small bench and sat in front of the corn shaker. "Second uncle, this height is fine. It's a bit high for what I'm using now, but it will last for many years. This is fine."
I really don’t want to trouble others again. I try to use it for a few more years this time.
"If it gets shorter in the future, I'll make it from scratch for you."
"Second uncle, that's enough." After speaking, Han Yuanfang took out a dollar from his pocket and handed it to Liu Cuihong.
"Second aunt, I will pay for the materials. You also have to spend money to buy the wood."
"You can't have it, you can't have it, Yuanfang, you will be far away like this."
Han Yuanfang stuffed it directly into Liu Cuihong's pocket, "Second aunt, if you do this, I won't dare to come home and ask my second uncle for help in the future."
After saying that, she left. This woman is quite hypocritical. She said she didn't want it, but in her heart she felt that she was underpaying.
A four-legged wooden bench only cost one yuan, so I really paid a lot for it.
Han Yuanshan was afraid of his wife and was honest. Although he was unwilling to ask for money, his wife had already glared at him and swallowed his words.
When I arrived home pushing the corn shaker, Grandpa Han came over.
"Master."
"Yuanfang, are you looking for someone to make the base?"
"Yeah, sit down quickly and grind out the corn. I asked the village chief, I just need to pay my own public grain this year."
Grandpa Han nodded. He came here to help press the base. Since it has been done, forget it.
She had been shaking corns all afternoon. It was all her own work, so she had better finish it early.
When the pigs were being fed in the evening, Han Dongmei came over.
"Yuanfang, did you really buy it?"
"Yes, you try it, it works very well."
"My parents also said to buy one."
"That's good. It saves your hand pain."
In the following days, Han Yuanfang would grind corn for a while every noon and evening.
That's how work is, there will always be a day when the work is done, even if the eyes are lazy, the hands are good.
In mid-October, all the corn at home was ground out, and the cob bones were collected. It was easier to burn as firewood than corn stalks.
During the midterm exam at the end of October, my boss would say every day that there were only a few days left before the exam.
Han Yuanfang now has a plan in mind, so there will be no problem in taking the exam.
There was an exam this morning. The principal came in and asked Han Yuanfang to go out.
Seeing Li Dongsheng outside, she already knew that the compensation money had arrived, and it was only 2,000 yuan for two lives.
It sounds like a lot, but if the couple lives well, they can earn it in one year.
"Han Yuanfang, it's better to go back to your home."
"Okay, I'll go clean it up."
She put away her schoolbag and packed the unfinished papers. Her old classmate also gave her the Chinese papers.
Li Dongsheng was wearing uniform and pushing a cart in the village, and many people looked at him.
After entering Han's house, Li Dongsheng looked at the clean yard and felt even more sorry for this little girl.
"Han Yuanfang, I have brought the compensation, and the patient has been discharged from the hospital."
Han Yuanfang understood what he meant, which was that this matter was considered private.
Han Yuanfang sat there with her head lowered. She didn't want to do it ten thousand times, but two middle-aged men just spent two thousand yuan to solve it?
She also knew that even in later generations, very few drivers who hit people could be sentenced.
But what should you do if you are really unwilling?
"Han Yuanfang, I know and understand your feelings. This is already the maximum compensation for you."
Han Yuanfang lowered her head, "Comrade Li, I know. I just don't want to accept it and I don't want to believe it."
"Girl, what has happened has happened and no one wants it.
The driver who caused the accident has a really poor family. He borrowed the entire village to borrow these two thousand yuan."
Han Yuanfang still lowered his head. Yes, he felt very guilty, but what was the use? It couldn't exchange for the lives of the couple.
"Han Yuanfang, just keep this money and sign it for me."
Han Yuanfang raised her head and said, "Comrade Li, this money should belong to my grandparents, right?"
Li Dongsheng shook his head, "There is no such rule, but after all, they are the parents of the deceased."
Han Yuanfang looked at Li Dongsheng and said, "Comrade Li, I'm not afraid of your jokes. Now my uncle's family is worried about my house. I'm afraid they will use my grandparents to make excuses in the future."
"Girl, as long as the village proves that this house was built by your parents after their marriage, then it belongs to your parents and has nothing to do with your grandparents."
"Comrade Li, how can I complete this procedure?"
"You can go to the village to issue a certificate and ask your grandparents to fingerprint it."
Han Yuanfang nodded. It was the same here as in the previous life. At this time, the law was also imperfect.
"Comrade Li, I'm going to see our village chief. Could you please help me solve it today?"
Li Dongsheng nodded, "Okay. I'll go with you to find the village chief."
The two of them went to the brigade headquarters one after another. "Girl, have you thought about how much money you want to give your grandma?"
"Comrade Li, I don't know this either. I'm thinking of asking the village chief later on how the village provides for the elderly in situations like my father's. Just follow that."
Li Dongsheng nodded. He didn't expect that an eleven-year-old girl would have such courage. Everyone likes money. Moreover, when he went to school just now, he knew that this child studied very well, so he would definitely continue to go to school in the future.
Even so, I still want to give the money to the elderly.
After finding Li Guozhu, Han Yuanfang explained the situation.
"This brigade can issue you a certificate. Everyone in the village knows that your parents built this house themselves, and your grandparents will not unconscionably say that they paid for it."
"Uncle, I'm sorry to trouble you. Comrade Li came here today to deliver the compensation. I was thinking of giving some to my grandma. Uncle, my father in our village was separated in this way, and he didn't need to provide for the elderly. How much should I give him?
?”
"The situation in our village is to pay for the coffin when the elderly are gone, to visit them in the hospital when they are sick, and to buy some good things for the elderly during the New Year and festivals."
