Chapter 153: Plan to dig a septic tank
His face was flushed with blood, his neck was stiff, and his veins were exposed. He looked like a man-eating beast, extremely terrifying.
At this time, uncle Jiang Chenghai had walked up to the brother and sister and glared at Zhang and uncle An Tiancai fiercely.
The couple shrank their necks and inadvertently took a step back, their eyes dodging back and forth, not daring to look Jiang Chenghai in the face.
Seeing that the couple were afraid of him, Jiang Chenghai didn't plan to make a fuss about it.
Turning around and bending down, he picked up An Nian with his strong arms, squinting his eyes and smiling, and said softly to An Yue: "It's okay, go with uncle!"
When Aunt Zhang saw that the uncle and nephew had walked more than ten meters away, she threw off Uncle An Tiancai's embrace and shouted angrily to the sky, "Who the hell stole my money?!"
Her vicious eyes began to shift to the backs of the uncle and nephew, and she cursed loudly: "You'd better not let me know which bastard it is, otherwise I will make him die or at least peel off a layer of scabby skin! !"
The uncle and nephew said nothing and continued walking forward.
After walking away, I could still vaguely hear the ghostly howls coming from my aunt: "Oh, God! Why is my life so miserable..."
Not a moment later.
The uncle and nephew arrived outside the gate of the village chief's yard and heard Qin's laughter across the wall. It turned out that their grandparents were drinking tea and chatting in the village chief's main house.
It was getting late, and I guess my grandparents were waiting for my sister and I to come back and have something to say.
The uncle and nephew walked into the main house.
"I've been waiting for you for a while. You and your brother are finally back!" Grandmother opened her arms and motioned An Nian to go into her arms.
Grandfather was the first to ask, "Yueyue, the barren mountains and wastelands have been measured. What are your plans next?"
The village chief took a sip of tea, gently put down the tea bowl, and said, "Yueyue, the barren mountain is sixty acres, and the wasteland is four acres. Together, it may cost thirty-six taels of silver."
The village chief paused and said, "If the money is ready, tomorrow morning, Uncle and Yueyue will go to the county government office to get the land deeds."
An Yue nodded and said, "Then I'll trouble you, uncle!"
Grandmother opened the bundle and handed fifty taels of silver to An Yue, saying to An Yue: "Yueyue, this time, grandma brought fifty taels of silver, which should be enough to buy the barren hills and wasteland. You can use it first."
After An Yue took the silver, she said, "If I leave so much money here with Yue Yue, I'm afraid someone will want to take advantage of it."
She turned around and handed the silver to the village chief, smiling sweetly and saying, "Uncle, Aunt, I'd better keep this money with you first, so that Yueyue can feel at ease."
"As long as Yueyue is at ease, it will be fine. Keeping it with us will save you from unnecessary trouble. Anyway, you will take the money to the county government office to see the official tomorrow."
"I feel relieved to leave the money with you two elders."
After the village chief made a simple count, he stood up with the silver and put it into the room.
At this time, An Yue took out the sketch she had drawn, handed it to her grandfather with both hands, and said, "This is the sketch drawn by Yueyue. Yueyue wants to..."
She told everyone what was in her mind, and everyone looked at the sketch and added An Yue's ideas.
——A quarter of an hour later.
Everyone thought An Yue’s idea was feasible.
Village chief Li Huairen took the initiative to say, "Regarding the matter of digging septic tanks, after returning from the county town tomorrow, Uncle will go to Wang's house to ask for you. His father and son work away from home all year round, so I think they have seen a lot."
Seeing that everyone was helping her, An Yue was deeply touched and her eyes began to moisten.
She said to everyone earnestly, "Thank you, uncle and aunt. The An family was in trouble, but luckily you two helped. Uncle was busy from morning till night today and didn't even have time to drink a sip of water. Yueyue thanks you two!"
After that, she quickly turned around and continued to say to her grandfather and the others: "Grandpa, grandmother and uncle naturally need not say much, but Yueyue still wants to say, 'Thank you!'"
After An Yue finished speaking, she and An Nian bowed deeply to all the elders in the room and said, "Thank you! You all have worked hard!"
Qin hurriedly stepped forward to help the siblings straighten up and said, "Child, get up quickly."
Grandmother took An Yue's hand and said, "Yueyue, you little girl! You bought so many barren hills. Do you know that you will have to pay a lot of taxes every year in the future?"
The village chief waved his hand and replied, "Sister-in-law, in recent years, the higher-ups have been vigorously supporting the reclamation of wasteland, and all wasteland and hills have been exempted from taxes for five years."
After hearing what the village chief said, my grandmother finally felt relieved.
Grandfather took a sip of tea, then stood up and said, "Niannian, Yueyue, we're going back first. We won't come over tomorrow."
"Your uncle and I will take advantage of this free time to do farm work at home for a day and come back the day after tomorrow. You can go to the county government with your uncle to get the land deed tomorrow."
My grandmother said to the village head and his wife, "Village head, sister-in-law, we have to trouble you to help take care of these two children. It's getting late now, so we'll take our leave now."
Qin smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, how can you say that? These two children are very sensible. We don't need to worry too much. Please go back and relax, Brother Jiang and sister-in-law. We will definitely help take care of them."
Uncle Jiang Chenghai said with some concern: "Yueyue, while we are not here, you should ignore those people from the An family."
Qin heard Jiang Chenghai say this on purpose, and she knew there must be a reason. She frowned and asked, "What's going on?"
Jiang Chenghai said to Qin: "When I went to pick up the siblings just now, I happened to see An Tiancai and his wife making things difficult for them and not letting them leave. That stinky woman also kept insulting them."
After hearing this, Qin said angrily, "That family is really not easy to deal with! If Yueyue hadn't been so kind as to help them, they might be living in a cave now!"
Grandma warned: "Yueyue, your uncle is right! Don't bother with them from now on!"
An Yue was not afraid of them. This time, she hit the snake at the most vulnerable part, just to see how they would turn around.
My grandparents and uncle started walking towards the gate of the yard.
The siblings and the village chief and his wife saw the three of them out of the courtyard gate until they were far away.
The village chief turned around and sat on a low stool under the eaves, took out his pipe and prepared to start smoking. Qin held the hands of the siblings and said softly, "Go to the kitchen with your aunt, and let's cook dinner together!"
The brother and sister smiled and nodded, then followed Qin towards the main house.
An Yue was walking and thinking that she had to go to the county town to get the land deed tomorrow. When she came back from work and passed by the town, she had to go to the town to take a look and find out the prices of blue bricks and tiles.
