"Master, look at what you said. I am the eldest son and grandson!" Xingguo said quickly in a low voice.
"The eldest son and grandson?" The old man knocked on the bowl of his pipe and looked at Xingguo with his old eyes.
Xingguo nodded quickly
"Eldest son and grandson, can you help our family and buy some ancestral property for us? How about that?" The old man did not lower his voice and pointed at the drawings on the table with his pipe.
Xingguo's face froze. "Master, I didn't know that our village would divide the land someday, and I didn't have any preparations!" What he meant was that I had no money, and the eldest son and grandson were for you to see, not to use.
"It's okay, Xingguo. Which piece of land do you like? I'll sell it to you on credit first, and you'll pay me back tomorrow. I'm telling you, you're the only one in the village who has this treatment. I don't believe anyone else!" The captain said with a laugh.
"Yes! Xingguo, we don't have this kind of treatment. The captain won't sell the land to us if we pay less!" Everyone also joked.
Xingguo's face turned red. Why did he buy this piece of broken land? He didn't know how to grow crops, and the crops were not valuable. Wouldn't it be a bargain for his second uncle if he bought the land?
"Uncle, my grandfather is joking. My wife and I both have jobs, so we don't have time to farm."
"Isn't your father retired? Your mother will retire soon too, right? Buy them a piece of land. When they are free, they can come and live here. They can also take care of the elderly!"
I don't know whether it was intentional or not, but the captain seemed to want to embarrass Xingguo for a while.
The old man was moved. He just bought a mountain for his eldest son, spending 1,000 yuan. He still had 1,000 yuan left. His second son also bought a mountain. All the mountains in the village were sold out. There were still so many people in the house waiting to buy land.
His family has already spent a lot of money, and buying more houses might make people jealous. The captain's suggestion is very good, it would be good to buy a few more residential plots.
It will be useful for the second son’s children to build houses when they separate, and it will also be useful for the eldest son and his wife to move in when they retire!
The old man made up his mind and looked at the second son.
Mantun also thought the captain's suggestion was a good one. When his old father looked at him, he immediately understood what he meant.
You don't need to pay cash to buy a homestead. After the people leave, he and the team leader will study it carefully.
Xingguo was put on the spot, and neither the old man nor his second uncle had any intention of helping him out.
He could only say awkwardly, "Uncle, thank you for your kindness. I just started working and don't have much money. When I have more money in two years, I will buy a piece of land for my parents."
Who would believe a college graduate from the village who now says he can’t even afford to buy land?
The couple both work in government agencies, with a monthly salary of about 100 yuan, which is enough to buy a few acres of land. If Xingguo has no money, they are poor ghosts and evil ghosts.
The captain gave Xingguo a meaningful look, and the others just smiled and said nothing.
Xingguo's face turned red with embarrassment
The old man didn't say anything else. In the past, the eldest son and his wife protected this good-for-nothing. As long as he pretended to study, he didn't have to do any housework, and he didn't have to worry about family matters. He just worked hard and pretended to be busy. How could he still be the eldest son and grandson like this?
If the eldest son and grandson are like this, this family is not far from being wiped out. In the past, they couldn't say anything even if they didn't like it.
After all, they don't have to spend money, they are willing to borrow money and it's their own business to indulge them.
Now that the eldest and his wife have come to their senses, there is no need for them to save face for Xingguo. He is not the only college student in the village. Who else needs to pay for tuition and living expenses like him?
Nowadays, universities all have subsidies, and children who save a little can also help their families! Of course, their family is not that rich, but they are not a wealthy family either. There are still several children in the family who go to school.
The couple's savings were all spent on the eldest son, and the remaining person was stretched to the limit for the whole family!
The old man was very dissatisfied with this. The eldest son had no responsibility at all and was always scheming against the family. What good would it do if he had such a promising future? He would not bring any benefit to the family!
Therefore, Grandpa Tian gave face to Xingguo in front of his fellow villagers and let everyone know that this university of his is only glorious on the surface, and his own family has not benefited from it at all, let alone others!
"My salary..." Xingguo wanted to say that he gave half of his salary to his family. Even if he had only given it for two months, hadn't his previous savings been taken away by Wu Zhiqiu, even if he had been giving it all the time!
Before he could finish, Mantun immediately took over the conversation, "Xingguo's wife is a filial son. After being married for so long, she still gave all her assets to her parents for safekeeping. The young couple cares about their reputation and is particular about food and clothing. They don't have much money left!"
