Daniel stood up and shouted loudly, "What's the reason? You are just cruel. When Jin Zi was a soldier in the army, Grandma Jin did everything by herself. When the farming was busy, it was the big guys who helped her mother. I, Jin Zi,
My uncle's family has never taken care of her. When she gets sick, the neighbors and village cadres help find a doctor. Now that she is gone, they still want to occupy Jinzi's yard. There is really no justice in the world."
The stepmother stood up and said, "No matter how you say it, we are the old man's biological son and daughter-in-law. She is gone, and Kim Jung-tai has not come back for several years, and has not sent back a letter. Who knows what's going on outside?"
Whether it is life or death, we are building a house in this yard, and it is a matter of course that we will not demolish this house."
"That's right. If the gold doesn't come back, won't the money just be taken away?"
"Jin Zi is so rich now, why bother with his younger brother? You can just exchange it for Lao Jin's land."
Seeing the villagers whispering that the cadres were not able to solve their household affairs and did not know how to solve them, the old village chief pulled Jin Zhengtai aside and said, "Jinzi, look at the leader here, don't let everyone laugh, after all, that is
Your biological father, I think the condition he proposed yesterday is okay, in exchange for his piece of land."
"Uncle, I don't agree."
Jin Zhengtai was resolute, "If his land can really build a house, why don't he just give money to build it? Can it be my turn?"
Lao Jin was also explaining to Secretary Wang that he wanted to give Jin Zhengtai land, but he didn't want it and insisted on bullying them.
Gu Jingxiu watched as public opinion turned towards her stepmother. Jin Zhengtai was usually very articulate, but at this time, he was too heartbroken to say a word.
Who can truly empathize with others without having experienced their suffering?
Everyone will only think that you are so rich and yet you still embarrass your own father and younger brother, how heartless you are.
People are always used to sympathizing with the weak and being tolerant of the weak.
If Jin Zhengtai came back with nothing today, maybe they would all choose to side with him and let Lao Jin return the yard to him.
But he has become the big boss, so, it seems, he should let go, be generous and carry forward his style.
How could things be done like this?
Gu Jingxiu explained loudly to Secretary Wang,
"Secretary, it's like this. It's not that Jin Zi has any grudge against them and wants them to demolish the house. It's because we discussed it before we came here. We planned to confiscate this old yard and the surrounding land and donate it to the village primary school.
He said that the primary school is cramped and there are so many students that there is not even a decent playground. In addition, before we came here, we also ordered a batch of sports equipment for students from the city. In the future, we also want to wait for the business to expand and build our own school.
This contribution from his hometown is Kim Jung-tai's contribution to give back to his parents and his alma mater. Now the yard is occupied, the playground cannot be expanded, and the sports equipment is probably useless."
When Gu Jingxiu said this, he spread his hands regretfully.
In order to support Kim Jung-tai, it was worth it for her to spend some money.
Almost every villager watching the excitement around them had children going to school in the village, or they themselves had graduated from the village primary school.
Everyone knows what the primary school environment is like.
If Kim Chung-tae can really make some contribution to the village primary school, then the whole village will be grateful to him.
Especially the old village chief, he has always remembered one sentence: No matter how poor you are, you can’t afford education.
He dreams of improving the conditions of village primary schools and giving those children a better learning environment.
Hearing Gu Jingxiu's words, he was instantly inspired.
He asked, "Jin Zi, are you serious?
Do you want to donate this land to the village primary school?”
Jin Zhengtai nodded, "That's right."
Some villagers said, "This is a great thing. Our village primary school is now crowded in a bigger place, and the children can't be spaced apart when doing radio gymnastics. It would be great if it needs to be expanded."
"Yes, Jin Zi's lover said that they also want to donate sports equipment to the children. Jin Zi is a really kind person. When he gets rich, he never forgets to contribute to his hometown."
“Don’t gold come to people?
Otherwise, let’s go work too.”
Everyone, you said something to me, and the wind direction changed again.
When Secretary Wang heard that Jin Zhengtai was so enlightened, he was full of admiration for him.
Donating to schools, to put it bluntly, is to help them solve their problems as cadres.
Here, the villagers are excited.
Everyone turned against each other, and no one spoke for the stepmother and her family.
instead……
Everyone started shouting, asking them to demolish the houses quickly to make room for the village primary school.
"Lao Jin, just demolish it and take a look at the gold. Don't forget about the people who dug the well. It's so open. For the sake of the children in our village, don't occupy other people's places."
"That's right, look at the gold. He is very capable and has a conscience. He still wants to donate land and materials to the village primary school."
The villagers began to attack Lao Jin and his wife and asked them to demolish their house.
Now the stepmother's behavior is useless.
The people in the village naturally sided with Kim Jung-tai for the sake of their children.
Secretary Wang looked at the three brick houses and said, "I think this house has just been built and no one has lived in it yet. It would be a pity to demolish it."
Hearing this, the stepmother nodded hurriedly, "Well, we haven't lived there for a day, and the doors and windows haven't been installed yet, how can we just remove them like this?
Is this something humans do?”
Secretary Wang chuckled lightly, his eyes shining with wisdom. He and the old village chief walked towards the village primary school, looking at the two rows of old classrooms with white walls and red tiles, and the two dilapidated teachers' dormitories, thinking deeply.
He said, "These three rooms are built on the east side, just not in the middle of the playground. The playground can be extended to the west.
I think these three brick buildings can be used as offices for teachers. It is not convenient for several teachers from the village primary school to squeeze into that small office. We cannot impoverish education, let alone wrong people who have worked in education all their lives."
Secretary Wang didn't wait for anyone else to speak. He looked at Lao Jin and his stepmother, whose faces were turning dark, and made the decision directly, "Let's do this. Let the village pay you two for the materials to repair these three rooms. This land is also
It's not yours. If you pay for the materials, this house has nothing to do with you.
Since Kim Jung-tai plans to donate this land to the primary school, these three rooms will be owned by the village primary school in the future."
I heard this way of handling it.
The stepmother was unsteady on her feet and almost fainted.
Lao Jin frowned, "How about that?
How much effort did we put into repairing this house?
Just give us some material fees and help us spend it?
Where’s the manpower?”
At this point, it is a foregone conclusion that the house will be handed over. Together, Lao Jin and his family would rather ask for more money than being forcibly demolished by Kim Jung-tai.
Someone in the village sneered, "What kind of manpower do you need? There is no house in the village where the whole village didn't work together to build a house. Your house was also built with the help of the big guys. If you want manpower, do you want to give us wages?"
."
The stepmother was choked and speechless.
The old village chief looked embarrassed. After struggling for a while, he started weakly, "Secretary, this solution is possible, but the village has no... no money!"
The bricks, tiles and wood of this house cost two thousand.
"I have a proposal."
Jin Zhengtai's eyes moved slightly, and he said to everyone in front of the cadres, "Maybe everyone knows better than me how poor our village committee is. My suggestion is that since Secretary Wang has proposed this solution, we all should also
If everyone agrees, then let each household contribute a small amount.
There should be about a hundred or so families in our village. Families with children, or families whose children will attend the village primary school in the future, each family contributes ten or twenty yuan to contribute to the cost of bricks, tiles and lumber for their home.
From now on, these three houses will be built by the whole village with funds raised by the village primary school. From now on, no one will want to find trouble and take the house back."
After hearing what Jin Zhengtai said, Officer Zhang was the first to express his stance, "This is a good idea."
Cadre Zhang does ideological work for the villagers, "Although we are not rich, a family can still spend ten or twenty yuan. Education is a century-old plan. If we spend these tens of yuan, the children and teachers will be able to
With a good learning environment and educational environment, learning will definitely reach a higher level.”
Gu Jingxiu pulled Jin Zhengtai aside and asked, "
The material cost is not much, so if you are the big boss and ask the villagers to raise funds, is it appropriate?"
Jin Zhengtai explained with a smile, "You don't understand this. If I pay for it, once we leave, their family will definitely go to the school to cause trouble and take back the house because they are my so-called family in the village."
.
But it’s different when the villagers raised money and paid for it. This is the common property of the whole village. If they dare to make trouble again, the whole village will tear them to pieces.”
