Chapter Ninety-Nine: Notice of Return to the Village

That evening, An Songyu returned home with An Shun and his wife.

This afternoon, another notice came from Jiangcun.

Everyone in Jiangcun is required to return to the village tomorrow.

This time, the compensation paid for the demolition was indeed not just for the mulberry-fishpond and orchard.

There are also flower fields and resettlement funds, etc.

So it is true that everyone in Jiangcun received demolition compensation today.

The mulberry-fishpond system and orchards managed by the village committee were also included in this compensation payment.

The village committee called a meeting with all the villagers to discuss how to handle the money.

Because of this, An Jianguo and the others received a constant stream of phone calls all afternoon.

Some people want to divide the money up directly.

After all, we don't even know if Jiangcun will still exist in the future!

This money has been kept at the village committee; who knows where it will end up?

However, some people do not want to divide the money directly.

After all, no family can guarantee that all their descendants will be successful.

Just like before in Jiangcun.

Even if future generations are not successful, or if something unexpected happens to them.

But as long as the village's mulberry-fish ponds and orchards exist.

Even if no one takes care of it for a long time, as long as it can be contracted out.

The annual contract fee alone is enough to ensure that the elderly in the village have support and the young are cared for.

But Jiangcun was demolished.

Before receiving this demolition compensation.

Not to mention the villagers, even An Songyu's family was immersed in the joy of the demolition and relocation.

I haven't thought about how to plan for this money in the future.

After all, based on the experience of demolishing other villages in Rongdi.

After the demolition and relocation, you'll receive money and a new house, so there's no way you'll live a bad life!

"We should discuss the relocation of the graves again at tomorrow's meeting," An Jianguo said to everyone at dinner.

Today, the whole family went out to eat at a restaurant.

It's still a seafood restaurant that's always been known for its high prices.

An Jianguo ordered a whole table full of food without even blinking.

An Songyu looked at the lobster, which was at least the size of her palm.

Not only the shrimp heads, but they can now be a dish on their own.

It's the shrimp body, cut in half from the middle, and the tender shrimp meat looks incredibly tempting.

Next to the shrimp, there are naturally crabs.

Swimming crabs are at their fattest and most delicious when they are full of roe.

An Jianguo was willing to spend money; the pieces were large and meaty, and they tasted incredibly fresh and sweet.

In addition, mantis shrimp, which Ansong Yu now enjoys eating, is also a must.

This is the mantis shrimp that became extremely famous in later generations.

Mantis shrimp are best steamed during this season.

Especially male mantis shrimp.

It's the perfect time for them to be plump and meaty!

Of course, sea cucumbers are also in season this time of year.

Everyone gets a bowl of sea cucumber porridge; it's delicious and nourishing.

There are also seasonal seafood such as oysters and scallops.

Almost no one at the table, young or old, looked up while eating.

It took a long time for anyone to respond to An Jianguo's words.

Both of An's parents are still alive.

But they also have to get involved in relocating the graves of their grandparents, great-grandparents, etc.

Nowadays, Jiangcun is also very wealthy.

Basically, they were told to go back and discuss the timing and method of relocating the graves.

Indeed, they didn't need to say much.

The next day, he was the only person in the family who was not busy.

An Songyu naturally followed the whole family back to Jiangcun.

This time, when the group entered the village, they noticed something distinctly different.

First, there's a street at the entrance of the village.

Let alone entering the village, it's difficult to even pass a person.

In addition, the number of stalls on the street at the entrance of the village has increased significantly.

Even the villagers who come out to buy things seem to be everywhere.

Neither An Jian'an nor An Jianmin drove their car in.

They were just trying to protect their large family and squeeze in.

But before they could even squeeze onto the street, someone spotted the group of people.

Someone in the crowd immediately called out.

With one person's call, even more people looked over.

An Songyu, who was quietly following behind the crowd, frowned and looked around subconsciously as so many people watched her.

But they discovered that it seemed that it wasn't just villagers who were greeting them?

The voice that had first called out to the group from the crowd grew even louder:

"Your family members have come to the village to look for you several times, all because you're building the country!"

"It's a good thing you came back today, otherwise they would have made a wasted trip again."

Yuan Qionghua, whose name was called, felt a jolt on her forehead.

She forced a smile, thanked the person, and hurried home.

When the news of the demolition first came out.

Her family immediately sent a whole truckload of saplings to their home.

I won't go into the size or type of the saplings.

Since they planted them early, in small quantities, and received minimal compensation, they were accepted without much effort.

However, no matter how much money Yuan Qionghua offered her family for tree seedlings, they refused to accept it.

Given Yuan Qionghua's relationship with her maternal family.

She doesn't just think that her family members are simply well-intentioned!

And so, without her notifying anyone.

How could her family members smell the scent and come over?

An Songyu followed behind the group, squeezing forward.

As I left Jiangcun Street, I couldn't help but look back.

While she was in the crowd, she felt as if she was being looked at by all sorts of people.

I don't know if it was just her imagination.

I always felt like these people were treating them like pigs to be slaughtered.

Thinking it over, An Songyu made up her mind.

If the village meeting ends early today, they'd better leave the village as soon as possible!

I wonder how many monsters and demons will be attracted after the first demolition compensation payment for the whole village came through yesterday!

After the group hurriedly left the street at the entrance of the village.

But he stood there dumbfounded in front of An Jianmin's house, unable to go inside for a long time.

After helping An Songyu's family move their silkworm house, An Jianguo and his group never returned to the village.

As for the house, the relocation deadline stipulated in the demolition contract has already passed.

After finishing with the furniture, he left without even locking the door.

But nowadays, let alone the old things they left in the yard that they didn't intend to keep, and some things that even secondhand furniture dealers wouldn't take.

Now it's all gone, completely empty.

Even their front door and windows were completely dismantled.

An Jianmin's face looked extremely unpleasant!

After all, this is their first home.

Back when he made money and had some extra cash, he didn't even listen to his third brother's advice to buy a house in the city.

Without hesitation, they demolished the old house and rebuilt it.

But now, there's nothing left but a framework!

Although this house, strictly speaking...

After they received the demolition compensation, it was no longer their concern.

But seeing this, everyone still felt extremely uncomfortable.

Next, the group visited several other establishments.

The result, naturally, wasn't too bad.

Suddenly, the villagers, who had returned to the village with great excitement, felt as if they had been doused with cold water.

Before the group could even discuss where to go next...

Not far away, An Songshu and his wife were leading a group of people toward them.
