Chapter 300 The Zhou Family Boy is Coming
The temperature is rising and the thaw has begun.
In late March, Liu Jingxue went to the town to collect the subsidy for children of martyrs for the past two months. She also went to the post office to pick up letters from Grandpa Zhang and her eldest brother, as well as a package from the capital.
After exchanging all the tickets she had just received for physical objects, Liu Jingxue did not stay in the town for long and went straight back to the production team.
The main reason is that it is covered by her spiritual sense. Everything within the range of her spiritual sense is no secret to her, and there is nothing new or interesting to see.
Liu Jingxue felt that this was probably a disadvantage of having a strong spiritual awareness. Without the sense of novelty, she had lost interest in anything.
She felt that in the future when she came to the town or went to a new place, she should not release all of her spiritual sense unless it was necessary, as it would ruin her goodwill.
With a huge spiritual sense to guide the way for her, Liu Jingxue was not worried that someone was hiding in the dark and spying on her dealings with the cowshed. After returning from the town, she went straight to the cowshed.
She did not forget to put a bunch of daily necessities such as oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, toilet paper, cigarettes, etc. into the backpack behind her.
After handing the things she brought to her aunt, and delivering the packages and letters to her uncle and two grandfathers, Liu Jingxue sat there to rest.
After Liu Weihua and Mr. Zou opened the letter, they handed the money and the letter to Liu Jingxue inside to her and read the letter immediately.
After opening the package, Mr. Wu looked for the letter first, and then began to read it.
After reading the letter, Mr. Wu cried out, "Oh, my bastard is coming to the countryside."
At this time, Mr. Zou and Liu Weihua, who had read the letter first, had also finished reading it.
Hearing this, Mr. Zou asked curiously, "Didn't your daughter write to you last time saying that your grandson had already gone to work? How come he is suddenly going to the countryside?
Logically speaking, shouldn’t people with jobs need to go to the countryside?”
"It's all because of those people. My little grandson has been working, but they still won't let him go. They keep framing him and finding faults at work, and there's no peace.
My relative simply sent him to the countryside to live in seclusion, after all, those people can’t reach the countryside.”
"It seems that your in-laws haven't calmed down yet.
It seems that those people will not give up until they achieve their goal." Mr. Zou sighed.
Liu Weihua said worriedly, "But if your little grandson signs up to come to our village, will people notice something and start an investigation here and find you, Brother Wu?"
"You don't have to worry about this, it's not my grandson who signed up himself, it's the neighbor who secretly signed him up.
As for arranging him to live with us, it was because someone in the Youth League Office received instructions from their family to arrange him to live in a cold and bitter place.
My in-laws were only arranged to come to us after some secret guidance."
"It's just that it's too cold here. If we come here at this time without any preparation, I'm afraid the educated youths who went to the countryside won't be able to survive.
So we have to wait for a while until the weather gets warmer before arranging for them to come over.”
"Letting the rival family secretly register your little grandson must be the result of your in-laws' calculations.
As expected, the older you are, the wiser you are. Zhou Fox is indeed worthy of his reputation."
Mr. Wu chuckled twice.
“It’s just that my in-laws gave me a difficult problem.
A kid from their neighbor's house came along with them. I guess he wanted to follow along and find an opportunity to find fault with my grandson, so as to find a breakthrough through him and drag the Zhou family into the water.
My in-laws asked me if there was any way to prevent my little grandson from living with the boy from the other family after he comes over.
After all, if you live together, you have more room to maneuver.
My in-laws were worried that my grandson would be caught off guard and get tricked by that kid.
But all the educated youth in our production team live in the educated youth camp, so what can I do?" said Mr. Wu worriedly.
Liu Jingxue interrupted and said, "There is still a way to think of it.
When I first arrived, it wasn't that there was no room for the educated youth there, but many of them didn't want to sleep in the dormitory.
I made a suggestion to the team leader, asking him to expand the educated youth site and build more single rooms there.
Those who want to live alone can pay to rent a single room, and those who can’t afford it can continue to live in a dormitory.”
“The captain said before that we would start construction after the ground thaws.
Grandpa Wu, when the time comes, just let your little grandson pay for the rent of a single room."
Zou Lao nodded and said, "That's a solution.
But after all, I still live with that person in the educated youth camp. Even if the house is locked, it still cannot lock out some people with ulterior motives.
For some resourceful people, the lock is just a decoration and cannot prevent any attack at all.
Anyone who can rival Mr. Zhou must have a military background. For children from families like theirs, breaking into houses and picking locks is a piece of cake."
“The old commander is right, the two boys in my family have had this ability since they were young.
Those rascals in the military compound would be laughed at by their companions if they didn't have this ability.
Moreover, when your little grandson comes over, Mr. Wu, he will definitely have private contact with you. He lives in the educated youth camp and goes in and out through the same gate. He cannot be hidden from the eyes of anyone with ulterior motives.
So for his and our safety, your little grandson should not live in the educated youth camp, it is better for him to live outside like Xiaoxue." Liu Weihua also said.
“But there are no vacant houses in the village right now, so do we have to share housing with the villagers?
I know my grandson's temper. He was raised by me as a spoiled child, so he is a grown-up master. He can't live with the villagers without making trouble."
Liu Jingxue shook her head and denied it, "It's not possible to live with the villagers.
The day I arrived, the team leader made it clear that the villagers did not agree to the educated youth renting their homes. "
“That’s going to be difficult.
Let him live in the educated youth camp. If that person or other educated youth know that he has contact with us, neither he nor we can escape responsibility." Old Wu felt like his head was about to split.
Why did his in-laws give this task to him?
Liu Jingxue said, "If you don't live in the educated youth camp and don't live with the villagers, and there are no empty houses in the village, then you can only build your own house.
Although it is impossible for the production team to allocate residential land to the educated youth like they do to the villagers, it should still be feasible with some operation.
Grandpa Wu, your grandson should not be short of money. He can negotiate with the production team, allocate a piece of residential land, and build a house with his own money.
It was agreed that the house would belong to him and he would be the one to live in it while he was in the countryside, and the production team could not arrange for anyone else to live in it.
When he returned to the city later, he handed the house over to the production team without asking for a penny.
Just the right to use a piece of wasteland for a few years in exchange for a house, this is a good deal, the production team should not refuse it. "
Old Man Wu clapped his fists together in excitement, "This is a good idea.
In this rural area, building a two-bedroom house like yours would cost at most only about 30 dollars.
I spent twenty or thirty yuan to live a stable life. Even if I give the house to the village for free, I won't lose money on this deal."
But he was still a little worried, “The homestead production team probably won’t charge any money.
If you want to collect, a little is fine, but if it's too much, we can't be taken advantage of."
Liu Jingxue thought for a moment and said, "Based on my understanding of the production team over the past few months, they are not the kind of greedy people and they probably won't take any money.
If you are worried, I will try to find out what the captain has to say."
"Then I'll leave this matter to you, Xiaoxue. Once you get the exact information, I'll write to them and tell them about the arrangement." Old Wu asked.
