If we drove any further, there wasn't even a dirt road, I really don't know how much my dad gave the driver when he called the taxi, he could even drive on this kind of road.
Under He Xiyuan's directions, I went in circles on the twisting mountain road. If I didn't see it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe that there was such a backwards village near the bustling Songjiang city!
Finally, we arrived at Yanhe Village at noon. When we entered the village, we immediately attracted the villagers' attention, it was the first time that three cars appeared in the village at the same time! The villagers were all very surprised, what day was it today, a sedan just came, and now three more cars came.
After entering the village, we couldn't drive any further in, because the village was only a meter wide dirt road, cars couldn't go through at all, what's more, there were a lot of chickens and geese running around on the road. We could only stop the car at the entrance of the village.
"Yi? Isn't this Old He's family's chick? "A villager in plain clothes pointed at us and said.
"Really! That person just now was also looking for Old He's family, did Old He's family get some awesome relative? "Another villager with a hoe said.
"Who knows! It seems like Old He's family is saved, look at their cars, we wouldn't be able to afford it even in several lifetimes! "The villager in plain clothes said.
"Don't say that! Be careful of the village chief hearing it! "The villager with a hoe reminded.
Hearing that, the villager in plain clothes immediately shut up, and didn't say anything else.
I didn't pay attention to them, and hurriedly followed behind He Xiyuan towards her home.
He Xiyuan's home was a typical mud house built with yellow mud, the roof was made with plastic sheets and woven bags mixed with some straw, it wasn't even a tiled house!
Once we got home, He Xiyuan directly ran into the courtyard. A middle-aged woman who was washing vegetables in the courtyard raised her head, and seeing He Xiyuan, she immediately put down the work in her hands and stood up, and said very excitedly, "Xiao Xi, you came back?"
"Mom! Is Uncle Liu here? "He Xiyuan didn't bother with small talk, and asked anxiously.
"He came, he came! Your Uncle Liu is talking to your dad in the room, I was just going to make a few dishes, your dad hasn't been this happy in so many years! "The middle-aged woman said happily, but also a bit sadly.
Hearing that, my worried heart finally calmed down, it seems like my dad didn't have time to reason with Jia Daguo! I checked out the middle-aged woman, she faintly looked like He Xiyuan, but she was unusually old! Her yellow and thin face was filled with wrinkles, if she were to calculate according to He Xiyuan's age, this woman's age should be less than 40 years old, but looking at her now, she was at least 50 years old! It could be imagined that He Xiyuan's mother had already aged beyond recognition due to the passing of time. Probably because of the matter of the fruit orchard on the mountain, her heart was already broken!
"Aiya! He was so focused on talking to Xiao Xi that he forgot that there were guests behind him! So this is dimei! " The middle-aged woman said to my mom kindly, "Come in quickly, Xiao Xi, go and make a pot of tea for the guests!"
't't't Since you call me dimei, then I'll call you sister-in-law, we're family, what's there to be polite about! "My mom held the middle-aged woman's hand and said bitterly. They were both women of the same age, yet my mom maintained herself like a young married woman, while He Xiyuan's mother looked like two generations apart from my mom!
Actually at this time in my previous life, after my dad got laid off, my mom was also like that, she had to carry the burden of the family by herself, causing her to age quickly, and be mentally and physically exhausted! In a short year, she seemed to have aged ten years, she also had a lot of wrinkles, and white hair! However, the only difference was that I was reborn! I won't let history repeat itself, and after this, I planned to reveal a bit of my cards to my parents, and let them live a more comfortable life, it counts as me doing my filial duty!
After entering the room, I noticed that my dad was sitting beside the fire, and talking to a man who was lying on the bed with both legs in plaster. Seeing me come in, he momentarily blanked, then immediately scolded, "Why did you come? Who told you to come? Did your mother tell you that? Where's your mom? "
"Dad, my mom is talking to Auntie He at the door!" I said. "We came to advise you, don't be impulsive!"
"What impulsive or not, tell your mom to come in, and quickly bring you home, this is a matter between adults, do you think it's children playing house!" My dad said angrily.
"Uncle, don't be angry, I brought Liu-dage over!" Seeing that my dad got angry, He Xiyuan quickly explained for me.
"Never mind, since you came, then stay here and eat, you and your mom bring Xiyuan home first tomorrow morning, your Uncle He and I will go to the county government to complain!" My dad waved his hand and said.
"Dad, even if you go to the county government like this, they might not be able to receive you! What's more, this Jia Daguo has some background in this area, if we can sue him, then we will! "I said.
"Why won't they receive me? If they don't receive me, then I'll jump off the building! Let's see if they receive me or not! "My dad said stubbornly.
"Dad, if you go and jump off the building, then the nature will change, if you don't succeed, and instead get detained for disturbing the peace, then that's not worth it!" Originally, it was reasonable to complain, but if you go and threaten the government by jumping off a building, then that's a bit unreasonable.
"Disturbing the peace? Detain me? They're not going to detain Jia Daguo, and are going to detain me instead? "My dad asked in disbelief.
"They didn't see what Jia Daguo did, but if you go to the county government and jump off the building, that's the attention of thousands of people!" I shook my head, my dad only knows how to do technology in the factory, and knows too little about society.
Hearing me say that, my dad couldn't help but fall into deep thought. Uncle He, who was lying on the bed, also persuaded after hearing that, "Yeah, Old Liu! If we could sue him, then we would have already! Don't talk about the court being biased, we don't have any evidence in our hands, it's too hard to sue him! It's all my fault, I didn't have enough awareness of the law, and didn't sign any contracts with the village! "
"Then your two legs were broken for nothing? You have to go and get an explanation right? "My dad said angrily.
"Get an explanation? Get an explanation from who? It's like I don't have a single person that hit me, that brat Jia Daguo didn't appear at all! Although I know very clearly in my heart, that Jia Daguo found this group of fighters, but they don't admit it, what can you do? "Uncle He shook his head and said.
I couldn't help but nod silently, Uncle He was right, there was no evidence for this, adding on the fact that the officials in this small place are protecting each other, they don't even have enough time to get on the good side of village chief Jia, even if they report the case, no one will investigate. Therefore, to deal with people like Jia Daguo, since they can't do it openly, then they must use some underhanded methods. This was also the reason why I handed Guo Qing over. Although I can still use my relationship with the government to deal with him, but investigating and obtaining evidence is a rather complicated process, and requires a very long period of time, so it's better to just do a dirty job.
