Liu Ahua has been working with Liu Cuiyun all year this year. Because she is diligent and hardworking, Liu Cuiyun treats her well and is always polite to her during the New Year and other festivals.

What made Taozi a little unhappy was that Liu Ahua had just gotten through her life and she started to worry about her two sons at home.

Especially after Xu Changdan secretly visited Liu Ahua twice without the knowledge of the Xu family, Liu Ahua's motherly love returned.

I often said to Taozi, "I jumped into the pond because I was depressed. It was your brother who jumped in and picked me up. Your brother is 21 years old after the Chinese New Year and is still digging for food in the fields. Your father doesn't care about anything. The two old men in the Xu family wish I would die out there. Now I won't go back, and I don't know if it will implicate Changdan and Changjun."

Taozi is full of disgust towards the entire Xu family, including Xu's father and the Xu Changdan brothers.

She grew up in the Liu family. Apart from going to school, she spent most of her time working and had no time to go home and play with her brother. There was no brotherly love between her and Xu Changdan.

However, no matter how unhappy she was, she couldn't control Liu Ahua. After all, she was her own daughter. Although her brother Xu Changdan was cowardly and dull, and was controlled by the two elders of the Xu family, he still had some mother-son relationship with Liu Ahua.

From Taozi's perspective, she felt that Liu Ahua would not ignore her two sons, so when Liu Axia asked them how they were going to celebrate the New Year, she firmly said that she would not go back and that she didn't know about Liu Ahua.

Liu Axia also knew about some changes in Liu Ahua, and turned to Qiao Jiangxin and said, "Your aunt is holding back her anger and wants to go back to Chuanqian Village to build a house. Isn't my family building a house in the second half of this year? She has asked me several times about the construction of the house."

Qiao Jiangxin didn't understand. "Aunt, why do you all want to go home and build a house after you make money? Haven't you ever thought about saving money to buy a house in Ning County?"

Liu Axia had a puzzled look on her face. "Why should I buy a house in Ning County? All my relatives are in the countryside, and our farmland is also in the countryside. When your uncle and I die, we will be buried in the countryside. Why should I buy a house in the city?"

If you want to live in the city, can't you just rent a house like your aunt? Go spend that money. ”

Qiao Jiangxin was convinced by Liu Axia's serious expression and didn't want to say anything anymore. Anyway, the house at her aunt's house had already been built.

"Haha, if we go back to Chuanqian Village to build a house, the mountain road is winding. It takes more than ten miles to go to the market in town. It takes ten miles to go to fifth grade. The class starts at 8 o'clock and we have to get up at 5:30. Auntie doesn't want to go back to Xu's house. Where can she build a house better than Chuanqian Village?"

Liu Axia had a different opinion. "Your uncle and grandfather are both in Chuanqian Village, and Changdan and his brothers are also there. As the old saying goes, fallen leaves return to their roots. When your aunt gets older, she will have to go back. After all, home is our root."

It didn't make sense, so Qiao Jiangxin kept quiet. No matter now or in the future, in the eyes of many parents, the last resort for a family is to reclaim wasteland in their hometown.

Land in the countryside is the last trump card for rural children. As long as they plant crops, at least they will not starve to death.

Therefore, no matter what, they will definitely hold on to those few acres of land tightly. Even if there is a chance to leave the mountains, they will hold on for the sake of those few acres of land.

So, no matter what principles you talk to them, they won't make any sense. They only know that if they have land, they won't starve to death, and if they have a house next to the land, they won't be homeless. No matter how bad the situation is, as long as they have land, a house and food, that's enough.

Qiao Jiangxin didn't agree with it, but he understood it, so he turned around and started chatting with Liu Xinyan.

"How about you come back to town with me to celebrate the New Year? It's quite lively at home."

Liu Xinyan shook her head. "I'm not going anywhere. I'm just staying at Shilixiang. It's inconvenient to bring the kids with me, and I'm not comfortable there either. Besides, there's TV in the store, so I won't be bored at all."

This year, Qiao Jiangxin spent a huge amount of money to buy three televisions, one for the Countryside, one for Shilixiang, and one for Mingzhuzhuang. As soon as these televisions were bought, they became everyone's favorite.
