It was already the afternoon when Liu Hai and Li Brown returned to Mahe Village.
The sun has turned a little to the west, but the air is still hot and the village is very quiet. On such a hot day, everyone is resting at home.
This was not the first time for Li Brown to come to Maohe Village. He had visited Liu Hai's house several times, so he knew the way to Liu Hai's house.
When walking to Luffa Mountain, Li Brown suddenly pointed to a place in front of him and screamed!
"Haizi! Do the three greenhouses over there belong to your family? I remember you told me last time that this land belongs to your family!!"
Liu Hai looked at everything, but he didn't look in Mahe Village, so he nodded. Only their family had a greenhouse. Looking in the direction Li Brown pointed, it turned out to be the half-acre greenhouse base at the foot of Luffa Mountain. Three white greenhouses were there.
Under the sun, it is particularly conspicuous.
"Tsk, tsk, Haizi, okay, is this thing reliable?"
Li Brown clicked his tongue a few times, seeming to be amazed at the changes in Liu Hai's family.
"It should be reliable. Many places across the country are now cultivating greenhouses and out-of-season vegetables."
Liu Hai replied humbly, thinking to himself that he had space soil and super fertilizer. Even if the greenhouse was unreliable, his super space soil would definitely be reliable!
Liu Hai knew that Li Brown was surprised at the changes in his home. He thought: When you get home later, there will be something more surprising to you!
Nowadays, my family is very lively. With the addition of the third grandma, sister Xiaofu and Zi'er, the atmosphere at home is different from before.
Liu Hai had never mentioned these things to Li Brown. The last time Li Brown visited Liu Hai's house, Liu Xiaofu was still studying at university in Beijing and had no vacation. The third grandmother lived in her own home, and little Liu Zi was even more so at that time.
I didn’t know him yet. At that time, the house was relatively deserted, and only Liu Chen, a clever little girl, left a deep impression on Li Brown.
The water pump and the more than 70 meters of water pipes are relatively heavy, especially the more than 70 meters of water pipes, which are bundled together. After getting off the car, two people need to carry them to move. The left hand of Liu Hai was all the way.
Lifting the water pump, Li Brown and his right hand carried the water pipe. Fortunately, Liu Hai was very strong, so he carried the 60 to 70-pound water pump with his left hand. Although it was difficult, he could still lift it and it was bearable.
The two carried things into their yard, but Liu Hai was surprised to find that his father and Liu Wu were there. Liu Qinglin and Liu Wu were checking the pepper seedlings in front of the seedbed.
Seeing Liu Hai carrying things in, Liu Qinglin and Liu Wu hurried over to help. Xiao Yun and others also walked out of the house after smelling the noise in the yard.
Li Brown called people affectionately, but when two girls, Liu Xiaofu and Liu Zi, one older and one younger, came out, he was obviously a little surprised.
As soon as Liu Hai entered the yard, he noticed that something was obviously wrong on his father's face. Why were his father and Uncle Liu Wu still at home at this time and not going out to dig trenches to bury the pipes?
"Dad, what's wrong? Did something happen at home?"
When Liu Qinglin saw his son asking about it, he opened his mouth to say something, but hesitated. Liu Wu on the side said angrily: "You're not that Liu Laishun, mother! You think you have a lot of money, but there are only five people in the village!
You are so stingy that you still want to be the village chief?! Humph - I will be the first one not to agree when the time comes! Damn - we just had a quarrel with that little bitch!"
When Liu Hai heard this, he felt even more strange. What did Liu Laishun have to do with digging ditches and burying water pipes in his house? Of course Liu Hai knew about Liu Laishun. The village is so big, who didn't look up when he looked down? Liu Hai remembered the last time at the third grandmother's house.
The adobe bricks used to build the house were bought from Liu Laishun's house.
Liu Hai hurriedly asked the reason and then found out what happened.
It turned out that after Liu Hai went to the county town early today, his father Liu Qinglin also got up early. He went to the village and called Liu Wu. The two planned to dig the ditch for the water pipe first. After Liu Hai bought the materials, they could seize the time to start directly.
Water pipes are buried.
When the two of them went to check out the place to bury the water pipe between Maohe and the greenhouse base, they found that the water pipe went in a straight line to the half-acre greenhouse base of Liu Hai's house. It was the same as Liu Hai and Liu Qinglin estimated yesterday, about sixty meters.
Yuan, but you have to pass through the paddy fields of three households.
Since he had to pass through other people's paddy fields, Liu Qinglin naturally wanted to come and talk to someone. When Liu Qinglin opened his mouth, the other two households agreed after hearing that it would not damage the rice in the fields.
When we got to the third house, we ran into trouble.
Liu Hai knew that the half-acre of land next to his home was the paddy field of Liu Laishun's family. Without asking, he knew that the problem was with Liu Laishun's family.
"Why didn't he agree? We won't damage the crops in his field." Liu Hai couldn't figure it out. Logically speaking, most people in the countryside would help with this small favor!
Liu Qinglin didn't say anything, but Liu Wu said loudly again: "That turtle grandson, he fucking wants money!"
These words suddenly made Liu Hai feel angry.
"Is this man obsessed with money? Why does he need money for everything?" The person speaking was Li Brown. He really couldn't believe that there was such a person.
"What is his statement? Why did he ask for money?" Liu Hai calmed down his anger and asked calmly.
This time Liu Qinglin did not remain silent - "He said that if we connect the water pipe to their paddy field, it will occupy part of his paddy field. As long as we give twenty yuan a month, he agrees to connect the water pipe to their paddy field."
That part of the area is rented to us to install water pipes.”
"Damn it! He doesn't have any villagers anymore!" Liu Wu thought of Liu Laishun's dirty mouth at that time, and felt really angry!
"His uncle, don't be angry. Who doesn't know that man's reputation in the village? His stinginess is famous throughout the village! Hmph - I think he is jealous when he sees that our family's life is getting better and better - we would rather have more
It’s not cheap for him to buy some water pipes and walk around his two-cent field!”
When Liu Hai heard this, he thought to himself that it seemed that this incident had also offended his mother. Xiao Yun was a kind-hearted woman who was well-known in the village for her ability to "do favors" and was well known for treating people well in the village.
"Yes! Xiaohai, just do what your mother said!"
What Liu Hai didn't expect was that the old lady, who never got involved in such things, immediately echoed her mother's words.
Liu Hai thought about it and understood the reason.
We all live in a village, and the most important thing for fellow villagers is the feeling of being "near each other"! Usually, if anyone in the village is helpful, everyone will lend a hand as long as they have nothing to do. Just like harvesting rice in previous years.
Your family will send people to help me harvest the rice first, and then my family will send people to help your family harvest the rice. What is important is the friendship between you and me!
But today, his father came to talk to him personally, and Liu Laishun actually asked for money and "rent"! He completely threw away the "you come and I go" friendship between neighbors in the village! The typical one is that
Do it as business!
What's more important is that this incident is a typical disgrace to his father!
How can we not make everyone angry!?
Liu Hai was also furious. He had had little contact with the people in the village before, and he didn't know that there were such people in Maohe Village. He immediately made a decision and did what his mother said! Put the water pipe around Liu Laishun's field!
"Okay! I'll go to the county town again tomorrow to buy more water pipes!"
ps: It’s the weekend, let’s count the votes and give them to Dao San!
