Hu Zi was depressed. Why wasn't he allowed to go back? He loved his hometown very much. Although he had gotten used to living in the city over the years, he only felt free when he was in his hometown.
Jinghui looked at Huzi, then at Su Li, and couldn't help but sigh: "Mom, why don't you let my third brother go? Grandma and grandpa must miss him too."
Hu Zi said aggrievedly: "Yes, Mom, I actually miss my grandparents too."
Su Li stared at him dimly, "Stop, I definitely can't let you go this time. You must have forgotten that last time you went back to my hometown, you broke Xie Guangqing's arm and Xie Guangfa's leg in less than half a day. And Dabao's cousin also hit one of his foreheads until it was bleeding. When your brother Lai Fu came to mediate the fight, you almost knocked out his teeth with your elbow. Your grandfather was leaning on a cane and wanted to hit you, but you almost hit his waist when you dodged. Do you think I can still let you go? I'm so old."
Hu Zi choked up at what Su Li said, and everyone else at the table couldn't help laughing. Li Dan knew why Hu Zi wanted to beat up those two people. He was bullied by them when he was a child, and Hu Zi wanted to avenge him at that time. Later, the incident of Bao Ya falling into the water made him bear a grudge for many years, so every time he went home, he would always pick a fight with those two people.
However, perhaps because Xie Guangfa and Xie Guangqing no longer had the protection of their parents, they had to live with Grandma Miao in their uncle's house and lived under someone else's roof. Gradually, they straightened out their personalities. They worked hard in the village brick kiln factory over the years. Although they did not drop out of school, they were able to support themselves. The last time he visited their home, both of them apologized to him.
Although he no longer cared, he also didn't want them to live with guilt. There was no benefit in dwelling on the past. Besides, they were all children at that time, and it would do him no good to dwell on the past.
"Brother, you beat them up because of me, don't be angry, Mom." Baoya said this, and she knew in her heart that Huzi did this for her, so she couldn't help but help him out.
Hu Zi was not convinced: "Mom, didn't you compensate them later? Besides, they bullied big brother and Baoya so much when they were young, so it was easy for them to get a beating."
"You still think you're right. They did make mistakes, but my parents and grandparents had already gone to seek justice. Why did you go to provoke them last time and scold their parents? It was to vent your anger. Even clay people have some temper. Besides, they are often looked down upon and the villagers say cold words about them. Enough of these years. It's only right that mom should compensate them."
Because of Hu Zi's mischief, she went up to apologize, even though she sent their grandparents to prison. They hated them when they were young, but they learned some sense when they grew up. Although they were a little cold, they were still polite.
Su Li paid the medical expenses for the two people. Looking at the dilapidated house, she left some money and asked Xie Zhenghe to take care of them during their stay.
It's not that Su Li is kind, she just can't bear to see two young people ruin themselves in rumors. It's not easy for them to live well after being suppressed and looked down upon for a long time. How they will live in the future depends on themselves.
After Su Li finished speaking, Hu Zi no longer had the arrogance he had just shown.
After breakfast, Su Li packed some things to take with her. Li Dan and Tie Dan carried the large and small bags of things and put them in the trunk.
Su Li also had a large gift bag in her hand, and Xie Zhengchuan took it.
"What's this?"
Su Li smiled and said, "These are for the elderly. The two mothers each got a gold ring and a Hetian jade bracelet, my father and his family each got a jade pipe, my brothers each got a watch, my sisters-in-law each got a gold bracelet, and the gifts for my nephews and nieces are all in the trunk."
"Why buy these things? My brother and sister-in-law are well-off now, so there's no need for you to spend so much money."
"It's not easy to get there, it should be good."
After several people got in the car, Li Dan drove. He was a gentle man, but he drove very wildly. However, considering Su Li in the car, he tried to slow down the speed as much as possible.
It took about two and a half hours to get home. Su Li couldn't stand it and fell asleep on the way. She was mainly too tired last night. But before falling asleep, she still asked them to wake her up when they were about to return to the village.
Now, Shanghe Village is no longer the small poor village it was when Su Li first came here. The brick kiln factory in Shanghe Village is now booming, the Mengli Garment Factory has also expanded several times, and the two hills in Xiezhenghe produce fruits every year, and they need people from nearby villages to help pick the fruits, which also provide income.
The canning factory in the county town is now considered a leading enterprise in the county. Su Li's second brother Su Hai also started from a small shop and now owns three two-story branches with an area of more than 100 square meters. This year, he will open two luxury hotels in the provincial capital. The design drawings were specially designed by a design institute. Su Li also looked at the drawings. She also provided a lot of suggestions based on the modern hotel. The hotel is currently under renovation.
Moreover, Su Li took a lot of things from the space for Su Hai's decoration. In Su Hai's eyes, these things were rare accessories, including floor tiles, glass and other items. In order to thank Su Li for supporting her career over the years, she specially left 20% of the shares to Jing Yu. Su Li was reluctant to take it, but Guo Rumei and Su Hai insisted.
Helplessly, Jingyu happily accepted it. She didn't know what was wrong with this kid. Su Li felt that he was obsessed with money and would not let go of any money, big or small.
Xie Zhengyang's pig farm is getting bigger and bigger, but he and his elder brother Xia Xiuzhi separated in the past few years. This man becomes arrogant after making money, and there is nothing that can be done about it.
Some people in the village have seen the families getting richer and richer. Because of the brick kiln factory, everyone can get a dividend every year. During the slack season, they will also go to the brick kiln factory to do odd jobs, so they have some spare money in their hands.
Many people also learned to start business. Some people did well, while others lost everything. However, at least their families still had land and dividends from the brick kiln factory. No one would be depressed because of failure, as they always thought they had a way out.
When Su Li was about to leave for Shanghe Village, Xie Zhengchuan woke her up.
"Xiao Li, wake up, we are almost back to the village."
Su Li opened her eyes dazedly, and what she saw were no longer tall buildings, but lush green wheat fields. Just looking at them made her feel full of vitality. Su Li felt relaxed all over, and the sleepiness and fatigue from the ride disappeared without a trace. No matter how busy she was outside, she would always take time to visit the village. The hustle and bustle of the city could only be soothed by the tranquility and peace of the village. At this moment, she opened the car window and breathed in the fragrance of the land to her heart's content.
The breeze brushed across her face, as if it was greeting her dear father, who had finally arrived.
