Chapter 116 The whole village collects money, Taoxi is a family
"I don't know how to tell Uncle Fu, Uncle Fu." Qiqi whispered.
Fu Yanchi was silent.
The light coming from the main room is not bright.
But the teardrops falling from the little doll's eyes were extremely glaring.
He stretched out his hand to stick it to his heart, and his heart felt a little uncomfortable.
The moment Qiqi's tears fell, she reached out to wipe them away.
She thanked the man, then turned her head and prepared to run out.
Fu Yanchi quickly pulled her back, "It's so dark outside, where are you going?"
"I'll go find the village chief's grandfather and the second uncle. They are the ones who decide everything in the village," Qiqi said, "I'll bring them here, they must have a solution!"
When I came to Taoxi Village, no matter whether I went to the city to find a wholesaler or took everyone to sell watermelons or open up wasteland, in Qiqi's eyes, the village chief's grandfather and the second uncle were the leaders.
So for such a big matter this time, they must be able to come up with an idea.
Fu Yanchi watched the little baby break away from him and rush into the darkness without looking back, a little dumbfounded.
He looked at Uncle Gui, "Why didn't Qiqi ask me to help? Could it be that I'm not as good as her village head grandfather and second uncle? Do I look very incompetent?"
Uncle Gui sat in the shadows and continued to slap mosquitoes. The worst thing about the countryside is that there are many mosquitoes.
After sitting for an hour, his hands and feet were covered with mosquitos.
Hearing the dissatisfaction of the husband, the uncle who suffers from too many mosquitoes rarely speaks with emotion, "Mr. Fu, you have a family and a career, and you wander around all day with nothing to do. How about farming?"
Fu Yanchi was speechless.
Qiqi ran very fast.
Having lived in the village for a long time, a little moonlight is enough for her to walk unimpeded on the path.
The house is close to Chen Erbo's house, so she went to inform Chen Erbo first, and then ran to the old village head's house.
The little egg man is like a kite with a string that she is holding, his feet are thrown back from his head.
"Stupid boy, what are you doing in such a hurry, it's not your family's business."
Qiqi kept walking, "But this is a matter of Taoxi Village."
She has encountered too much indifference and disgust. It was not until she came to Taoxi Village that she felt the kindness around her.
For Qiqi, every bit of goodwill is precious.
The old village head and his wife are old and used to go to bed early at night.
At this time, it has been washed and ready to be unloaded.
Hearing Qiqi's call, the old village head approved a coat and went to Zhang's house without saying a word.
Luo Yuqiong followed behind with a flashlight, and even Huazi got up.
The little egg man looked at the old man with a anxious face and hurried steps, with puzzlement in his eyes.
How can someone be so concerned about other people's affairs.
Qiqi is, and so are the people in Taoxi Village, as if a village is full of one family.
In his cognition, people like Wang Jianzhong's floral shirt are normal people.
There is also the circle in which he lives, and even his family, everyone, wishes for others to be down and out.
…
When Qiqi returned to the small fenced courtyard, there were more people in the main room, and there was no room to sit in the main room, so the villagers went to stand in the yard.
The crowd is full of villagers who rushed over after hearing the news.
At this time, in the main room, there was the uncontrollable crying of the old woman.
Chen Jianhe stood in the yard with a dozen villagers, with his hands on his hips and his thick eyebrows furrowed.
Seeing the old village chief coming, he greeted him immediately, and after briefly explaining the matter, he said, "This Mr. Fu said that he asked people from Zhan City to inquire about the situation, and the factory owner was willing to withdraw the lawsuit and release him, but Ask Jianfeng to pay 30,000 yuan for medical expenses and damages."
The old village chief staggered and nearly fell before he could stand still, "30,000 yuan?!"
…
Thirty thousand yuan is an astronomical figure for the villagers of Taoxi Village.
Most of the people who gather in the fenced courtyard are old people who have lived in the village for decades. The most money they have earned in their lives is the one or two thousand yuan they saved from selling those watermelons and sweet potatoes this year.
Thirty thousand yuan is money they can't save in their entire lives.
Not to mention them, but in the whole Hagilu Town, the family can afford tens of thousands of dollars, and you can count them with a single slap.
They are the poorest village in the town, where can they pay for that amount?
In the main room, Gou Dannai sat slumped on the bench, and Lao Li also rushed over and squatted aside, his two old and skinny hands tightly clutching his hair, his face full of despair.
Goudan squatted against the wall, his eyes were dull and lax, and he could no longer cry.
The main room is full of people and very quiet.
Qiqi ran all the way, panting, the small ties tied to her head were all loose.
She didn't go into the house, but stood quietly outside the door, silently watching the scene in the house.
Qiqi didn't know that beside her, there were two other people quietly watching the situation.
One is Fu Yanchi.
One is the little egg man.
In the yard, the old village chief kept pacing with his hands behind his back after he regained his composure.
"Jianfeng and the others were impulsive in this matter, but their fault is not all their fault." After a while, the old village head said in a deep voice, "The factory owner delayed the payment of wages, and there was a fault first... Anyway, We can't just watch and ignore it, we have to find a way to get people out."
Chen Jianhe thought for a while, and said, "Old village chief, the busy farming season is over now, and the work in the field is not so urgent, why don't I go to Zhan City tomorrow to see the situation in person."
"I want to go and see for myself. I'll go with you." The old village head took out the cigarette stick, wanted to light a cigarette, and finally put the cigarette stick back. It’s far away in Zhan City, and the fare is a lot of money, regardless of the time. I guess the boss won’t let him go easily, so he’ll just wait for us to use the money to replace him.… Sigh.”
After a long sigh, the old village chief looked at the old man in the yard, "Everyone knows what's going on with Lao Litou's house, and they definitely won't be able to get 30,000 yuan, so I want to discuss it with you guys. Help me collect some money, and when someone fishes it out, Lao Li and I will return the money to you slowly. Don’t worry, guys, the money will definitely be repaid. We can continue to sell watermelons next year, right? It’s just time up, maybe a little slower..."
Chen Jianhe was the first to respond, "Village chief, needless to say, I will offer one thousand yuan. There are still a few months until next spring, and I will go to the county to find some odd jobs. It’s the same way it’s been done before.”
After him, people kept talking in the yard.
"The money our family has saved, after deducting the family and children's tuition fees, can squeeze out five or six hundred."
"I'll take eight hundred."
"Thanks to the watermelon making money this year, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to get it out today, and I would be 800!"
"Same as Jianhe, one thousand yuan! Jianhe, call me when you go to do odd jobs, and you are idle at home."
The dull and gloomy atmosphere came alive again because of this echo.
Even the old women in the main room ran out, you make up one hundred and one fifty.
Not a single person complained of dissatisfaction.
There is one more chapter during the day. During the PK, Qi Qi asked for votes!
