Siheyuan: Don't mess with me, I just want to be a free fish

Chapter 499: Homecoming Son-in-Law?

"Third Uncle, the commendation meeting will be held in two days, do you want to invite Wei Dong?"

There are a few people sitting in the office of the Xiali Village Brigade. The merger of the two villages has long since ended. Although they have not moved together, in name, there will be no Shangli Village or Xiali Village since then, only the Li family brigade.

Li Chunhua was the captain of the Li Family Brigade, and Li Chongjiu was the director. Li Shuquan was still the village militia captain, but this militia captain belonged to two villages.

Moreover, the merger of the two villages will increase the area to be patrolled, so in addition to the volunteer militia, a serious militia team was specially formed.

Except for the busy farming season, this militia patrols full-time.

Because Li Chunhua and Li Chongjiu had the same opinion, under their promotion, the merger of the two village brigades did not cause any disturbances, not to mention that Li Weidong gave that kind of reward.

So just after the merger, the two held a meeting, publicly announced the reclamation of the river beach, and took out the places to work in the city.

Hearing this news, everyone's eyes turned red.

Especially for those skilled workers who have a lot of strength, they just rolled up their sleeves. Looking at that posture, they wished they didn't sleep that night, so they had to start working first.

There is this job quota for entering the city, yes, although it is mainly to work on the prison farm, and the farm is not in the city, even if you go there, you still have to farm, but for rural people, the prison farm belongs to the city work.

With this quota as a reward, there is no need to say much about the atmosphere that will follow.

Although there are only two places, Li Chunhua is cunning and cunning, and directly stated that even if there is no chance this time, those who perform well will be recorded and used as qualifications for future places in the city.

That is to say, if you usually perform more and work harder, it will be your turn next time you have a chance.

In this way, those who originally felt that they had no hope and wanted to be lazy, did not dare to be lazy, and could only work hard.

In other villages, even the commune said that it would provide quotas for entering the city, and not many people believed it. Didn't you see that so many cadres came to the countryside?
This city is not so easy to enter.

But who made Li Weidong come out of Xiali Village?
If it weren't for the sensitive thing about the ancestral hall nowadays, Li Chongjiu would have planned to pick up Li Chunhua and Li Shuquan to build an ancestral hall.

Today, building ancestral halls is definitely not an option. The north is not the same as the south. In the past, some can be preserved, but there are none. At this juncture, what do you want to do?

However, not being able to build an ancestral hall does not mean that one cannot build a family tree.

What Li Chongjiu meant was that the two villages were truly integrated. In this way, there must be some fetters, and this genealogy is the root.

At first, Li Chunhua hesitated, but after Li Chongjiu said a few words, Li Chunhua made up his mind.

First of all, Li Weidong has moved to the city, even if he misses the old love, what about the future?

Second, Li Weidong is a first-class hero and is qualified to open a page on his genealogy.

Thirdly, Xiali Village can produce such a big man, that is due to Li Chunhua's part of the credit when he was the director. Although he will definitely not be included in the county chronicles, his name will definitely be left in the village chronicles, which will last forever. Chance.

Fourth, Li Weidong couldn't write two characters of Li in one stroke, so Li Weidong still had to call him Li Chunhua "Third Master" (Third Uncle).

In this way, the matter of rebuilding the family tree will be finalized, but this thing can't be rushed. At that time, we have to invite the respected elders of the two villages to have a good talk.

After the merger of the two villages, the most urgent task is to reclaim the river beach.

Although [-] mu seems to be a lot, the two villages have a lot of people, and it is different from the sixth farm where Li Weidong lives. It was originally a wilderness, and it was frozen solid in winter, making it difficult to cultivate.

The river beach was originally a fertile field, and now that it is getting warmer, it has already thawed. Turn it over thirty or forty centimeters, and reduce the stones in the field. In addition, there are cows in the village, and the two people who went to the city to work Under the temptation of the number of places, this progress will naturally be greatly accelerated.

In just one month, all [-] mu of river beach land had been reclaimed, and under everyone's supervision, two villagers with the best performance were selected.

Facing the eagerly looking villagers, this commendation conference is definitely imperative, and more importantly, the number of places to enter the city.

For this reason, Li Chongjiu suggested inviting Li Weidong.

"What? Afraid that Wei Dong will renege on his debt?"

Li Chunhua took a puff of the dry pipe, and squinted at Li Chongjiu.

I have to say that Li Weidong’s idea of ​​reclaiming the river beach was really high-level. Originally, in Li Chunhua’s opinion, it would take at least two or three months to reclaim the river beach, but now it can be completed in one month. , But so far, he hasn't gone to the club to announce the good news, and even told the villagers to keep it secret, don't go out and talk nonsense, because he is afraid that someone in the club will have ideas.

Only when the commendation meeting in the village is over and the number of places is completely finalized, he will go to the club to announce the good news. Not afraid.

He, the captain, was nominally elected by the villagers, and then certified by the society.

As long as he doesn't make mistakes, even the club can't get rid of him.

What's more, he is Li Weidong's third uncle.

Even though they are not close, after all, they haven't released the fifth clothes yet, the kind that come to pay New Year's greetings on the first day of the Lunar New Year.

"How can it be? I don't want to settle down early, so as not to have long nights and dreams."

Li Chongjiu said with a smile.

For this quota, he must have no idea, because Li Weidong promised before that he would let his brat learn how to raise a dog.

In fact, the next day he found a master for his son in the village, who specialized in learning how to raise dogs.

He believed that since Li Weidong reminded him like this, there must be a reason. He just needs to let his son study hard and wait patiently.

"That's right, Wei Dong is here, just for the big guy to meet, Shu Quan, you go to the city tomorrow to see if Wei Dong is free."

Li Chunhua thought for a moment, then nodded.

"it is good."

Li Shuquan responded directly.

When he goes to the city, he can also visit his mother by the way, and he is Li Weidong's second uncle, there is no more suitable candidate than him.

"Well, I'll go with Uncle Shuquan and identify the door."

Li Chongjiu said immediately.

If according to his seniority, Li Weidong called him Ninth Brother, then he was not wrong to call him uncle.

Although he was much older than Li Shuquan, he didn't have the slightest sense of disobedience when he yelled, obviously he yelled more than once.

Li Chunhua glared at him angrily, but he didn't refuse.

After all, to invite Li Weidong this time, Li Shuquan can only be regarded as his own family, and Li Chongjiu is the representative of the brigade, so he can be regarded as sincerity.

"Okay, that's it for now."

Li Chunhua made the final decision.

That night, Li Weidong knew that Zhang Xiuzhen was going to clean up the house for him.

And it was the north house where the old lady lived.

Reminiscent of what he said when he came back this afternoon, how could Li Weidong not know what Zhang Xiuzhen and the old lady meant?
This is obviously to prepare a new house for him.

Compared with the east room where he is currently living, the north room is undoubtedly much larger. The current room is separated from the middle, and the old lady and Li Xueru sleep on the kang inside.

Li Weibin slept on the small bed in the outer room.

At the beginning, Li Weidong just crossed over, but he and Li Weibin squeezed a lot of time in the cot.

Apart from Li Weibin's little shelter, the rest of the space in the outer room was also fully occupied, and it was arranged in a mess.

Ninety-nine percent of these things are garbage that should be discarded in Li Weidong's eyes.

But both the old lady and Zhang Xiuzhen firmly believed that it was a family property.

Even if you don't need it, take up space there, and you must not lose it.

In this way, I can only wrong Li Weibin, and I can only do my homework in the living room.

The Li family has a total of two north rooms, one side room and one east room, and they live in a total of eight people.

Although it is crowded, it is definitely more than most people.

In many families, five or six people with parents and children can only sleep in one bed.

Like rural areas, there are many people who wear a pair of cotton trousers in winter.

Therefore, the living environment of Li Weidong's family is actually not bad.

At least Li Weibin has his own separate room after marriage.

And Li Weibin and Li Xueru didn't share the same bed with their parents, and they slept separately.

But if Li Weidong occupies the north room, the space will be tight all of a sudden.

You can't let the old lady take Li Weibin and Li Xueru to sleep in the east room, can you?
Although Li Weibin and Li Xueru agreed a hundred times, Li Weidong was somewhat unwilling.

In fact, after Li Weidong became a cadre and made first-class meritorious service, the street office once wanted to vacate another house for the Li family in this courtyard.

But in that way, no matter whose family it belongs to, it will appear that the Li family is bullying others.

So she was immediately rejected by the old lady.

What she thought of was nothing else but Li Weidong's reputation.

In her eyes, her grandson is a first-class hero, so there should be no stain on his reputation.

The people from the sub-district office persuaded her several times, but seeing that the old lady had made up her mind with Zhang Xiuzhen, she stopped trying to persuade her.

Li Weidong didn't know these things.

But right now, it is still a matter of vacating the house.

"Grandma, Mom, just forget about the house, my north house is pretty good, so there's no need to make a fuss?"

Li Weidong directly refused after listening to Zhang Xiuzhen's opinion.

"What nonsense are you talking about? You were not married before, so it was fine to live in the east room by yourself, but now you are about to get married and start a family. How can there be any reason to live in the east room?
Spread the word and not let people see the joke?

What's more, the girl from Xiaobai's family is a bit wronged to marry into our yard. If she is allowed to live with you in the east room again, it will be a slap in the face to your mother and me.

What face do I have to meet Xiaobai's parents?
How can you bring people in and marry them?
So you have to live in the north room. I have already discussed this matter with your grandma. Anyway, your father is not at home. When the time comes, your grandma will sleep in your room with Xiaoru, and Xiaobin will sleep in the same room with me. "

Zhang Xiuzhen said stiffly.

"Mom, I want to sleep in the east room too. I'm already an older child, how can I sleep with Mom?"

Before Li Weidong could say anything, Li Weibin, who has always been quiet, couldn't help it.

He didn't know how many days he had been looking forward to, but he just wanted to live in Li Weidong's house, and finally waited for the opportunity, and was directly smashed by his mother.

So he has to fight.

"What are you making trouble with? You are old, isn't your sister old too? Can you sleep in the same room?"

Zhang Xiuzhen stared.

"Yes, I have seen my second brother's room a long time ago. You can put a small bed near the toilet and draw a curtain. Isn't it the same as now?"

In order not to freeze his butt in winter, Li Weibin would rather live next to the toilet.

Hearing his justification, Zhang Xiuzhen waved her hand, "I'll talk about that later, let's talk about your second brother first."

After finishing speaking, Zhang Xiuzhen looked at Li Weidong: "If this is not enough, I will move to your house, and you can reorganize the north room where I live with your father, and follow the appearance of your east room. What do you think? Sample?"

"Mom, there's really no need to do this. In fact, Xiaobai won't mind, and it's not difficult for your son to get a house now."

Li Weidong said.

"You want to move out with Xiaobai?"

Zhang Xiuzhen was obviously taken aback, as if she hadn't thought of this possibility.

After all, in her view, a house is a major event in a lifetime, and now when children get married, they all live with their parents.

So she never thought about breaking up the family at all.

In other words, I never thought about Li Weidong leaving.

"Is the second brother going to live with sister Xiaobai? I heard that sister Xiaobai lives in a very beautiful bungalow."

Li Xueru said with wide eyes.

However, as soon as she said this, the old lady's face changed significantly.

Even Zhang Xiuzhen looked directly at Li Weidong, hesitating to speak.

What does it mean to live at a woman's house?
Home son-in-law!

Although the Li family can't compare with Zhou Xiaobai's family, at least in her eyes.

Even if Li Weidong came back with a first-class merit, even if he is now the deputy captain, he can be said to have a bright future at his age. In the eyes of many people, his weight is far more important than that of the Zhou family.

But Zhang Xiuzhen's previous concepts, coupled with little knowledge of what Li Weidong really did, so in the bottom of her heart, she didn't think there was anything special about her family, just an ordinary family.

But even so, she absolutely disagreed with Li Weidong's desire to be his son-in-law.

Li Weidong watched the old lady and Zhang Xiuzhen's expressions change, and immediately gave Li Xueru, who was next to him and staring at him, a headache.

"What nonsense are you talking about? If I get married, it must be your sister Xiaobai who will marry me, do you understand?"

Li Weidong taught Li Xueru viciously.

But in fact, what he said was clearly intended for the old lady and Zhang Xiuzhen.

Sure enough, following his explanation, the expressions of the old lady and Zhang Xiuzhen also eased.

"Weidong, do you want to move out and live alone?"

Zhang Xiuzhen still couldn't help asking.

Even if she doesn't know anything about Li Weidong's status now, she still knows that it is not difficult for him to find a house.

And she can understand the young couple's desire to live alone.

"How can it be, Xiaobai and I are so busy at work, what's the point of going out alone? The house is deserted, and no one cooks for us, and after we have a child, why don't you and my grandma watch over?"

In order to reassure the old lady, Li Weidong simply resorted to a big killer.

"Yes, while I can still move, I will help you look after the children."

At this moment, the old lady felt that everything was worth it.
