Other than Yang Chonggui, he was the only one in the Yang family who knew these secrets. Yang Yi didn't show any signs of abnormality. His life in his hometown was still the same. He and Yang Chonggui were still living the lives of ordinary people.
However, there was still a slight change!
In the next few days before the Spring Festival, Yang Yi and Yang Qing drove to the county town a few times. The house was built not long ago, and it was too simple inside. Since the two brothers were there and it was convenient to have a car, they went to the county town to buy some furniture and appliances to decorate the house.
Needless to say, the TV, fridge, air conditioner and so on, Yang Yi even got someone to set up a telephone line in the house. There was basically no signal in this place. Usually, they had to go to the house next door to make a call. It was very inconvenient.
In addition to the basic appliances and furniture, Yang Yi also bought an electric pump and a large solar water heater. The electric pump was placed in the well. When it was turned on, the water could be directly pumped up, saving manpower. The water could also be pumped up to the solar water heater on the roof.
With these, it would be much more convenient to use water at home. Moreover, Xi Xi wouldn't have to cook herself in a pot!
This big movement naturally attracted the attention of many villagers in Wudaokou Village. Every day, there would be people looking for excuses to see the new appliances in the Yang family's house. In private, there were many envious gazes and discussions.
"Ah Gui, you don't have any farming skills, but you have two good sons with Yue 'er. You went from being poor to being out of poverty a few years ago, and now you are the richest person in our village!" The village chief, Dong Qi, also came. Seeing the changes in the Yang family, he sighed meaningfully to Yang Chonggui.
Dong Qi was Dong Yue 'er's clansman. His seniority was the same as Dong Yue' er's, but his age was similar to Yang Chonggui's. However, this time, he didn't come to reminisce.
To get rich, one must first build roads. This saying was true. Although there was a road in town that led to Wudaokou Village, it was built a few years ago. It could take tractors, but it couldn't take trucks! It would affect the sales of the village's crops and mountain products. The village had long planned to build a road, but the villagers had raised funds, but it was not enough to build a road that could carry large trucks. Dong Qi came over because of this matter. He wanted to ask Yang Yi for alms.
Dong Qi beat around the bush for a long time before he finally got to the point. However, while he found it difficult to talk about it, Yang Yi was willing to donate generously! After the conversation with his father that night, Yang Yi already had plans to help the village.
After some discussion, Yang Yi offered three million yuan. Together with the money raised by the village and the subsidies from the state, it was enough to expand and strengthen the foundation of the original road and build a new road.
There should still be a lot of money left.
Yang Yi suggested to Dong Qi that the rest of the money be used to fix the mud roads in front of every house in the village. They would do their best to pave the roads with cement. In the future, when Yang Yi drove back, he didn't have to be careful. He drove like a tortoise because he was afraid that the car would be bumped into a ditch.
Of course, this money had to be supervised. Since Yang Chonggui had nothing to do and was full of righteousness, he naturally had to shoulder this responsibility.
These miscellaneous matters didn't need to be discussed. After donating the money, Yang Yi received the support of many villagers. Most of the villagers were simple and honest. Although the Yang Yi was ahead of them and made some jealous, Yang Yi didn't forget his fellow villagers. They all remembered this kindness in their hearts.
After the news spread, the Yang family's house was crowded again. However, this time, they didn't come to look at the Yang family's house and big appliances. The simple and honest villagers gave Yang Yi a lot of mountain products and some game they hunted in the mountains. These things weren't worth much because they couldn't be sold. However, the thought behind the gift was more important. They sent them to Yang Yi's wife and daughter to try. This could be considered as repaying Yang Yi's kindness.
… …
Two days before the Spring Festival, Yang Qing's girlfriend came to visit.
Yang Qing's girlfriend was called Zheng Shuyi. She was from Zheng Village in the same town. Zheng Village's geographical location was much better than Wudaokou Village. Not only was it close to the town, but it was also close to the county. Therefore, Zheng Village was obviously much richer.
Because the roads were smooth, most of the people in Zheng Village lived in buildings. The wealthiest families even drove cars.
Logically speaking, such a rich village wouldn't marry their daughter to Wudaokou Village.
However, the Yang family suddenly became rich and could afford to hire a good matchmaker. She exaggerated the relationship between Yang Qing and the Yang family to the skies. Zheng Shuyi's mother was willing to let the two young people meet and try.
Originally, it was just a test. Zheng Shuyi's mother didn't think of marrying her daughter to such a remote Wudaokou Village. However, who knew that Yang Qing was simple and honest and Zheng Shuyi was gentle and virtuous. When the two met, they liked each other very well.
Zheng Shuyi's parents were quite satisfied with Yang Qing, who was diligent in his work and didn't have a glib tongue. They had once wanted Yang Qing to come to the Zheng Family Village and become a live-in son-in-law.
Of course, this was impossible!
Fortunately, the Yang family's wealth gradually increased with Yang Yi's help. They could afford the betrothal gifts that the Zheng family wanted. In addition, the parents of both parties met a few times and dispelled the Zheng family's doubts and worries about the Yang family. Only then did Zheng Shuyi's parents agree to marry their daughter.
Of course, Yang Qing and Zheng Shuyi got along very well. After confirming that Zheng Shuyi was going to visit, he even took the initiative to ask his brother to drive him to pick up Zheng Shuyi.
Zheng Shuyi wasn't a beauty. Her appearance was clear. She was neither tall nor short, neither fat nor thin. She was still a good-looking girl. She had a high school education. She was better than Yang Qing and Yang Yi. She was well-educated and not delicate. According to Yang Qing, she usually helped out at home. After coming to visit, she even rushed to help in the kitchen. Murphy, who had just learned how to pick vegetables, also lost her job.
Hearing that Uncle Qing Zi's aunt was coming, Xi Xi was curious. She just came back from a stroll with her grandfather. She pulled her father's hand and couldn't wait to go to the kitchen to see the real person.
"Is she Uncle Qing Zi's aunt?" When the little girl saw an unfamiliar woman, she became a little shy. She went behind her father and pulled on his clothes as she asked softly.
"Yes, but you have to call her aunt directly. You can't call her Uncle Qing Zi's aunt. It has two different meanings." Yang Yi smiled as he corrected her.
Zheng Shuyi also saw Xi Xi and even waved her hand to greet her. But when she heard the conversation between Yang Yi and Xi Xi, she was a little shy. After all, they weren't married yet.
"Why are you all here?" Yang Qing was worried and came over to take a look. Being a taciturn person, he couldn't help but say to Yang Yi and Yang Huan who was snickering at the side, "Alright, alright, just take a look. Don't scare Shuyi."
Yang Qing's boyfriend power was at its peak and he began to chase them away. Yang Yi could only hold his daughter's hand and walk out. However, Xixi's innocent voice was still heard.
The little girl was now familiar with Yang Qing. She couldn't wait to express her opinion to Yang Qing, "Uncle Qing Zi, Aunt Qing is also super beautiful!"
Yang Qing didn't know what to say. He scratched his head and smiled innocently, "Really?"
"Yes! I like Aunt Qing's hair. Papa, can you braid the same hair for me? " The little girl's thoughts were jumping, but her words still made Zheng Shuyi happy. She couldn't help but touch the braids she braided for Brother Qing Zi for a long time today.
"Sister-in-law, your daughter's mouth is so sweet." Zheng Shuyi said to Murphy enviously, "If only I could have such a lovely daughter like you."
"Yes, after you and Qing Zi get married, you will have your own baby soon. It must be very cute." Mo Fei and Zheng Shuyi, who were also unmarried, had already started chatting with each other. In fact, she was more envious of Zheng Shuyi, because Zheng Shuyi and Yang Qing's marriage had already been set in May of this year.
And it seemed that she didn't know when her wedding with Yang Yi would take place …
Although she had made an appointment with Yang Yi that they would get the marriage certificate when they returned to Jiang City during the Spring Festival, it was indeed just a certificate. For a woman, the most important thing was the wedding …
While they were chatting, Dong Yuee, who didn't let the man cook and cooked by herself, frowned.
