Chapter 93 Rong Family
Rong Yanhui, Rong Yunhao, Rong Xinyue...
In the eyes of the Rong family, that naturally sounds quite nice.
Although the Rong family didn't understand what they had gone through to change their names, they believed that their children would not be the kind of people who would forget their ancestors. So, the problem lay with the people in the Shen family.
Thinking about how badly their Rong family had been harmed by the Shen family, their younger sister's early death, and their nephew being bullied...new grudges and old hatreds, it has to be said that they were quite happy to change their surname to Rong.
This is the only child left by my sister, and also their child. From now on, he will have nothing to do with the dirty things of the Shen family.
As for Shen Shiren and the others, they will never have an easy time after committing the sins they have committed!
However, now is a great day for their family to reunite, so let’s not mention those messy people and things.
Fushan Village, as the name suggests, must be related to the mountain. Their village is located at the foot of the mountain and is in the shape of an arc.
But the foot of the mountain is not entirely flat, it has ups and downs.
Almost all the villagers' houses are built on the slightly higher ground along the mountainside. Of course, some are built on slightly higher hills. It is almost dusk now, smoke is curling up, and from time to time you can hear one or two dogs barking, children playing, and adults shouting.
There are a lot of cultivated lands on the hillside, which are organized into pieces from bottom to top according to the terrain. Crops are also planted in them, but because they are a bit far away, the growth rate cannot be seen clearly.
As for the lower areas, there are paddy fields. Now in June, the green rice seedlings are swaying their leaves gently in the breeze.
Looking at these rice seedlings, one can imagine the spectacular sight of a vast expanse of golden rice when it matures.
In front of the paddy field is a lake.
The lake water is clear and sparkling, and in the afterglow of the setting sun, it flashes with golden light.
With mountains and water, Lu Yao felt that such an environment would be a suitable place for leisure and relaxation in modern times. Even in this era, it is much better than the environment of many villages.
She even had some doubts, is this really the place where exiled criminals live?
Could it be that this is special treatment from the higher-ups for certain people?
The only uncertainty now is whether the people in the village are easy to get along with.
However, judging by the complexions of my uncle and his family, I guess it shouldn't be too bad.
I have to say that, to a certain extent, Lu Yao is telling the truth.
"Brother, this place looks like Yunshan Village." Little Xinyue suddenly said.
Xiao Yunhao looked around carefully and shook his head: "The mountains in Yunshan Village are higher and steeper than here."
At least, he had never seen anyone planting anything on the hillside.
and,
"The land here is not as flat as Yunshan Village." The houses and fields here are all ups and downs, staggered and orderly. They look messy but still beautiful.
Lu Yao didn't expect Xiao Yunhao to observe so carefully, and rubbed his head as a reward.
"Do Haohao and Yueyue like it here?" she asked.
Although for exiled prisoners like them, they have no say in where they live, she still hopes that her two children will not feel inferior because of this.
Although Haohao and Yueyue didn't understand their mother's intention, they nodded to show their approval.
This is not to comfort my parents, they really like it here.
My uncle and aunt are all very nice people.
They like it.
"That's good as long as you like it," Liu Manyun said, "then let those two naughty monkeys take you out to play."
At this point, she realized that she had been busy communicating with her children and forgot to introduce the situation at home.
Lu Yao tactfully changed the subject and asked where their yard was.
"Our home is right over there," Rong Bingwu said, pointing to the houses in the distance. "Almost all the people here are exiled or their descendants."
Then he pointed to a nearby yard and said, "This is where the indigenous people live, and their fields are mainly here."
In other words, the place where they exiled criminals was mainly at the end of the village.
Due to the special geographical environment of the village, residents at the end of the village must pass through the entire village if they want to leave. Even if they do not go to the inner side, that is, the main road in front of the house, they must pass by the field ridge by the lake. Therefore, their every word and action is under the surveillance of all villagers.
Rong Bingwen continued, "There aren't that many things going on in the village, but everyone has tacitly agreed to stay out of each other's way."
They rarely leave the village unless there is something special on weekdays, and they will not go to the village entrance, so they are clearly separated.
After listening to the two people's introduction, Lu Yao breathed a sigh of relief. Everyone focused on their own lives and did not disturb each other. This was good.
What she feared most was that the indigenous people would be arrogant and bully and humiliate these inferior exiled prisoners.
Today they walked on the main road close to the inside. The four elders of the Rong family whispered about the situation in the village as they walked.
"If we have something to go out for on weekdays, we always walk along the field embankment by the lake. It's much closer and more convenient." And comfortable.
"There are many mountains here, and a lot of land is on the hills. The instructors need to carry water, which will be quite hard."
"The land is not fertile enough, and the grain production is much lower than that in the capital."
"As for paddy fields, there are only a limited number near the lake, and most of them belong to the indigenous people. Our paddy fields are relatively far away from the lake, or on higher ground."
In other words, we will have to carry things on our shoulders in the future.
Lu Yao listened to their words and thought about possible countermeasures.
Naturally, there is a pump and other things in her space.
Many of the supplies were found after the end of the world. She is a bit of a hamster and likes to hoard things, no matter what type. As long as there is no space, she will put some in whenever she has the chance, always thinking that she will need them someday.
However, water pumps either use electricity or diesel. Electric ones are fine, as they have low power and make little noise, but diesel ones are different, as they make a loud noise. Once used, they will definitely attract the attention of people around you.
Unless, there is a water pump soundproof cover.
She wasn't sure if there was such a thing in the space.
However, it is too early to think about these things now. It is not too late to think about other things after looking at the location and situation of the land tomorrow.
Their home was at the very end of the village. It would take at least a quarter of an hour to walk around the entire village from the entrance. They walked very slowly, and it took them nearly two quarters of an hour to reach the end of the village.
Lu Yao was pleasantly surprised to find that the Pu family's yard was right next to theirs, and on the other side was her uncle's large yard.
Their side was the end of the village, and almost no one walked this way.
Liu Manyun chuckled and explained, "There are not many people here, and many people don't want to live here. I think it's quiet and peaceful, which is quite nice."
Qin Tianxiao also said: "When we first came here, it was actually not this courtyard. If they want to change it, then let them change it. It will be more in line with our wishes."
These words seemed like a statement, but Lu Yaorong and Yan Hui heard something else in them.
Rong Yanhui felt distressed: "You must have suffered a lot."
Lu Yao was also upset: "Those people are clearly bullying you because you are new here and you dare not resist."
After hearing what the two said, they realized what the two children had misunderstood.
They looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.
"Look at me," Qin Tianxiao apologized, "I didn't explain it clearly."
Liu Manyun smiled and explained quietly, "That family is indeed jealous of us for having a house in a better location, but we really want to be at the edge. Although it's not as convenient to get around, it does save us a lot of trouble."
"So, we just went along with it," Rong Bingwu said with a smug look on his face. "They thought they had beaten us and were so proud of themselves."
But now, no one dared to say anything about what they wanted to arrange.
Before they reached the gate of their own house, they saw a row of people standing at the gate, all craning their necks to look over here.
"What are you all standing at the door for?" Rong Bingwu pretended to be serious. "Are you all ready?"
"Dad, don't worry, we are all ready."
"Can you introduce us now?"
"My cousin will never guess who I am."
"Grandfather, are these my cousins?"
Everyone was chattering and didn't take Rong Bingwu's "threat" seriously at all.
Now that they have reached home, their true natures are revealed.
Rong Bingwen smiled helplessly at Rong Yanhui and Lu Yao: "These two are your eldest cousin's sons. Do you still remember them? And this little one is your second cousin's son. He was born a few years after I came here."
Rong Yanhui certainly didn't forget. He stepped forward and called everyone one by one. Surprisingly, there was not a single mistake. This made everyone surprised and happy.
Rong Yanhui has three cousins, two cousins and one cousin.
My eldest cousin Rong Yuqing is the eldest son of my eldest uncle Rong Bingwen, and the oldest of their generation. He was in his early twenties when the incident happened. He had been married for several years and had two children, Rong Huaijin and Rong Huaiyu. Now the two children have grown up, one is seventeen and the other fifteen.
My second cousin Rong Yuheng is the eldest son of my second uncle Rong Bingwu. When the Rong family encountered trouble, he had just been married for half a year.
At that time, the parents of the two daughters-in-law felt sorry for their children, and the Rong family did not want to let the women in the family suffer, so they discussed letting them divorce. In this way, the two children would not have to suffer. However, the eldest daughter-in-law and the second daughter-in-law seemed to have made an agreement and were unwilling to do so. In the end, they had to give up. In order to let their daughters suffer less, the two families put in a lot of effort behind the scenes. In addition, the younger sister gave a lot of money. Even though the Rong family was exiled, they lived a good life.
But the long journey was a lot of suffering, no matter how well arranged. When they arrived at the destination, my second cousin's wife fell ill and it took a long time for her to recover. It was not until five years later that she became pregnant. Now, their only son, Rong Huaibai, is only eight years old.
My third cousin Rong Yuzhe is the second son of my eldest uncle. He had a childhood sweetheart who he was good friends with. The other party’s family thought that the two had a good relationship and would be happy together in the future. The Rong family thought that the other party’s family background and character were also good, and the children had no objection, so they arranged the marriage early.
Unexpectedly, when the Rong family incident happened, his fiancée's family broke off the engagement without saying a word, which hit him hard. Now he is 26 years old and still single.
In fact, it is impossible for the Rong family to delay the engagement of another girl. Even if they don’t say it, the Rong family will take the initiative to cancel the engagement. However, the other party’s impatient look and uncharacteristic expression still deeply hurt the Rong family.
The saying "You can know a person's face but not his heart" is just like this.
The two cousins are from my second uncle's family. The elder one is called Rong Yuxuan and the younger one is called Rong Yunan. They were still little kids back then. Fourteen years have passed, and now one is twenty-two and the other is eighteen.
The only little cousin, Rong Ziyu, is the youngest daughter of my uncle. When the accident happened, she was younger than Xiao Xinyue, less than three years old. Now she is sixteen years old and has become a graceful young lady.
My aunt-in-law got pregnant unexpectedly, and she was so ashamed as a grandmother. My uncle often punished her by making her sleep in the study. It was not until my little cousin was born that she became the mistress of the house. As the only girl in their generation, she was naturally loved by everyone.
After introducing each other, Rong Yanhui's family had already become familiar with all his cousins.
After not seeing each other for fourteen years, our feelings haven't changed at all, and there's not much restraint. There are many things I want to say, but due to the occasion, I can only talk about it later.
What surprised Lu Yao and Rong Yanhui was that none of them got married after coming here.
But think about it, their status is special, the locals are afraid to avoid them, how could they let their daughters marry them? As for the families who were also exiled, unless they were innocently implicated and wrongly accused of food like them, the rest of the families deserved it. Such families, they naturally did not want to have anything to do with.
Fortunately, they were rehabilitated and they don’t have to worry about these things anymore.
