Chapter 769 You Are Different From Them

"Chengcai? Why did you come back alone?" Liu Chengcai met the captain of the village at the entrance of the village.

"Uncle, I came home to see you?" Liu Chengcai saw that it was the captain, so he answered.

"What's there to see at home? Everything is ready. When the time comes, all the villagers will come to your wedding."

"You have to prepare better. Your family is a big family in the village. Is your father coming back?" The captain laughed and asked a series of questions.

The captain is Liu Hai's elder, more than ten years older than Liu Hai. The main reason is that there are not many young people in the village now, so only these old guys can be the captain.

The captain is also a smart person. Seeing that he mentioned Liu Hai, Liu Chengcai's face was a little embarrassed and guessed something.

"Chengcai, if there is anything, come to the team headquarters to find me. Your uncle has been dealing with disputes in the countryside for so many years. If there is no 1,000, there is at least 800. Let's have a good chat." The captain laughed and said.

"Okay, I'll go back to see grandma first." Liu Chengcai nodded with a move in his heart.

"Alas, you are still too young." The captain looked at Liu Chengcai's back and shook his head.

More than an hour after Liu Chengcai returned home, he came to the team headquarters as expected.

"Do you want to smoke?" The captain closed the door and handed over the cigarette.

"Uncle, I don't smoke." Liu Chengcai politely refused.

"Your father is like that. He doesn't like to smoke or drink. When you were not born yet, people in our village were looking forward to your father's return."

"Although your father doesn't smoke or drink, he always brings good cigarettes and good wine when he comes back. At that time, we all looked forward to your father coming back every month, and your father would buy meat and other things."

"I remember one year your father came back and killed more than a dozen wild boars for us. That year, the whole village had a good year."

"Look at the changes in our village now. Isn't it the best among the surrounding villages? Our village has the most college students and the most beautiful wives."

"All this is because of your father."

"Don't listen to what people in the countryside say about adopting or adopting to others and you can't go back to recognize your father!"

"Do you know? You are fundamentally different from them." The captain took a puff of his cigarette and then spoke.

Liu Chengcai heard this and listened silently, and didn't say anything else.

"They say this because they have never taken care of adopted or foster children."

"I won't talk about your family situation. If it weren't for your father, not only your family, but even our village wouldn't have such a good life."

"And it was your father who was deceived by your grandfather. Your grandfather didn't have any good intentions at the time."

"He thought your father was poor and single and couldn't afford a wife. Who knew your father would be so capable now?"

Liu Chengcai nodded silently when he heard this. It's not that he had such a big business this time, but he knew Liu Hai's concern for his family since he was a child.

When he was a child, his family basically had no shortage of candies, snacks, and canned food, and even if they did, they wouldn't last long.

And this kind of life has continued to this day. It can be said that his family's life is much better than that of the village.

"With your grandfather's calculating nature, if it were really just your grandfather and your grandmother, believe it or not, your family would have a harder time. The people in the village dislike your grandfather's calculating personality the most."

"Everyone's family is poor, so this calculation is understandable, but some of them are too much."

"As an elder, I usually don't talk about these things, but marriage is the top priority in life."

"And to be honest, your grandfather's behavior almost killed your father."

"You also know the direction of the wind in those years. Your grandfather and grandmother enjoyed the happiness in the second half of their lives because of your father."

"Look at the elderly in other villages around, who has a better life than your grandparents did before? , there is a family in the next village who is over 70 years old, and they still work from dawn to dusk. "

"Your mother was able to drive at the township government early, all because of your father. In the most difficult times, other villages had no income, but we had meat every year. No matter how big or small the radishes and cabbages in our village were, as long as they were good, your father would use his connections to buy them all."

"You can ask the elders in the village to see what they think about this matter."

"Why bother about the thoughts of the dead? The most important thing for people is the living. Besides, you don't deny your grandfather and grandmother." Don't underestimate the team leader in the countryside. It is too difficult to communicate the ideological work of these people in the countryside.

The cultural level of these people in the countryside is uneven, and everyone has their own little calculations. Maybe the two families can quarrel for several years for a piece of land the size of a palm.

Not to mention for some corners and the like. Of course, sometimes it is not necessary to argue for this point, but if you give in, he will go even further.

So what is said on the Internet in later generations, what's wrong with giving him three feet? It's completely bullshit in the countryside.

If you give him three feet today, he will take your three feet tomorrow and make sarcastic remarks to you.

That is to say, if you don't fight in the countryside, others will think you are incompetent and a softie, and they will bully you even more.

Therefore, those who can be cadres at the grassroots level in rural areas must, on the one hand, think clearly about all aspects of the situation, and on the other hand, have a strong motivation.

To put it bluntly, you have to be a bit rude, otherwise no one can deal with these old women and old men in the countryside.

Liu Chengcai stayed in the team for a while before leaving. When the cold wind outside blew, his mind suddenly became clear. He was completely different from other adopted children.

He walked a few steps and took out his mobile phone from his coat pocket to send a message to his mother, but there was no signal.

Liu Chengcai went home and told his grandmother about his thoughts. In fact, these old women in the countryside still understood things. They just said that Liu Chengcai didn't mention it before, and he certainly wouldn't take the initiative to mention it.

For so many years, he was soft-mouthed and soft-handed, and he couldn't say tough words.

The next day, Liu Hai was very happy to receive the news from Wang Hongmei.

But Liu Hai didn't plan to make a big deal, because Liu Chengcai himself asked for a simple marriage.

The next headache for Liu Chengcai was how to tell his girlfriend.

Liu Chengcai's girlfriend is two years younger than Liu Chengcai. She also stayed in school after graduating from university, but she works in administration. To be precise, she is Liu Chengcai's junior.

People's aesthetics are not as distorted as they are in 2020, so Liu Chengcai, who is 1.78 meters tall, is a perfect high-quality boy in the eyes of many women.

Most northerners have square faces and are a little rough.

Such people are definitely passers-by in 2020, because in 2020, people prefer those with pointed chins, regardless of gender.

"Chengcai?" In the middle of winter, Li Xuemei came to a tree in the school wearing a thick cotton coat, and looked at Liu Chengcai who was waiting for her with some doubts.

Li Xuemei has a typical Jiangnan look, with a smaller face and very beautiful appearance.

"Xuemei." Li Xuemei is Liu Chengcai's girlfriend. Li Xuemei's parents are not actually from Kyoto, but from the south. They came to support the construction of Kyoto. Li Xuemei's father is a technical worker in a bearing factory and her mother is an elementary school teacher.

"I have been holding back some things for a long time."

"This is the place where we had our first date. I want to make some things clear here."

"Don't talk yet. I get nervous when you talk."

Li Xuemei looked at Liu Chengcai and chuckled, nodded, and then nodded to the front, and the two walked along the way.

Li Xuemei is about 1.62 meters tall. The two of them, one tall and one short, walked along the road in the campus. The reason why Li Xuemei is called Xuemei is because she was born in winter when the plum blossoms are in full bloom, and the snow covers the plum blossoms.

"You know the general situation of my family. You have also met my mother. My mother drives a car in the township government. My grandmother is in my hometown. My grandfather passed away two years ago. In fact, my father, I mean my biological father, is still alive."

"Ah?" Li Xuemei was a little surprised.

"My nominal father was paralyzed because of an accident that year, so my grandfather..."

Liu Chengcai said a lot, including some things in the past at home.

"I just want to ask your opinion. After all, this marriage is the biggest thing in life, and for so many years, our family has also been taken care of by my father." Liu Chengcai turned his head and looked at Li Xuemei.

"Your situation is different from theirs. Your father can be said to have been taking care of your family since you were a child. I just don't know if your father is willing." Li Xuemei thought carefully and then said.

"He heard that I was going to get married a few days ago, so he gave me an estate so that I would not have to worry about food and drink in the future." Liu Chengcai said again in a tangle.

"Is your father married now? Does his current lover have any objections to him giving you these things?" Li Xuemei asked again.

"He got married twice later, but he said that the estate he gave me was the least valuable." Liu Chengcai couldn't figure out what Liu Hai meant by giving his younger brothers and sisters a bigger estate?

"Since it's not valuable, just keep it." Li Xuemei didn't realize at all what this concept of worthlessness meant?

"He said it's not valuable... I'll take you to see it." Liu Chengcai was also a little speechless.

Li Xuemei was also very curious when she heard this, and at the same time she felt that her boyfriend's cheap father was a little unreliable, and that he could live comfortably by giving her some worthless property.

She thought it was a house in the countryside or something like that.

An hour later, Li Xuemei felt like a bumpkin who had never seen the world.

Standing on the roof of the museum. Through the huge floor-to-ceiling glass, she looked at the worthless property in her boyfriend's mouth.

The decoration in this office, the huge floor-to-ceiling glass, and the huge museums that can be seen at a glance.

Looking at Kyoto from such a height, it turns out to be another kind of scenery.

This is a landmark building in Kyoto, and many of the collections inside can be said to be priceless.

Some people say that there are tens of millions of things in it, and there are more than one, and some say that if you steal one casually, you will be shot.

"This...!" Li Xuemei didn't realize that Liu Chengcai took the opportunity to hug her.

"My expression was exactly the same as yours now, and he also gave me a house, and I can see the house over there." Liu Chengcai pointed to a building in the distance again.

"Who is your father?" Li Xuemei was completely stunned, her mind was in a mess, she pinched herself hard and found that it was all true.

"I don't know who he is, anyway, he has been driving a car since I can remember, I mean a small car."

"From childhood to adulthood, our village has been thanks to my father's help. When our village was a collective, all the radishes and cabbages planted in the fields could be sold for money." Liu Chengcai hugged Li Xuemei, his heart pounding. Now, holding hands in a relationship is a big deal, but he didn't expect to hug for so long this time.

Li Xuemei arrived at the underground garage and saw a large black SUV. Liu Chengcai drove Li Xuemei around the basement.

Li Xuemei looked at the garage on the third floor of the underground and thought about how much money it would take to build such a huge building as a museum?

She had never heard of anyone with such a large industry, nor had she heard that these museums were private industries.

Li Xuemei felt like her head was going to explode because she received too much information today.

Li Xuemei returned home, which was the teacher's building of the elementary school. This was the house that her mother had allocated a few years ago. It had two bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen and a bathroom. It was just a pity that it was not an elevator building, but a walk-up building.

"Xuemei is back, where is Chengcai?" Li Xuemei's mother asked when she saw her daughter coming back, and looked out the door again.

"He's gone back!" Li Xuemei felt dizzy.

"Why are you so rude, kid!"

"Things between Chengcai and me may have changed a little bit." Li Xuemei didn't know where to start.

"My aunt, don't scare me, we've invited the guests." Li Xuemei's mother said quickly after hearing this.

"Chengcai has a father..."

"What, didn't his father die a long time ago?"

"I'm talking about his biological father..." Li Xuemei said something roughly, saying that Liu Chengcai's father gave him a family property when he heard that Liu Chengcai was going to get married.

"It's not worth much, it's a token of my love, and you and Chengcai can just live a good life." Li Xuemei's mother didn't care when she heard that Liu Chengcai's father gave her a worthless property.

"You two can get a house earlier if you get married earlier."

"I heard that your university is going to build an elevator apartment, let's see if we can get one, your father and I can't live in an elevator apartment in this life." Li Xuemei's mother said naggingly.

"Mom, aren't you curious about this?" Li Xuemei's eyes widened.

"What's so strange about this? There were too many such things back then. The main reason was that we had just experienced the war, and many people in the countryside did not have strong labor force..." Li Xuemei's mother said as if she was not surprised.

"It's only a dozen days away. When can we find a chance to meet your father who has become a talent?" Li Xuemei's mother has already met Wang Hongmei.

"Yeah!" Li Xuemei wanted to tell herself what she saw today, but she felt that she couldn't say it because she seemed to be dreaming.

Li Xuemei's father also came back, and it was not strange to hear about this. Li Xuemei also had a younger brother who was living in the dormitory in high school.

After Li Xuemei lived in the dormitory, she rarely went home to live, because if she came back to live, her younger brother would have to sleep on the sofa.

In the past, when we were studying, everyone lived in the dormitory, and only went home to live during holidays.

"Sleep first, and talk about it tomorrow." Li Xuemei decided to sleep first.
