However, the Yellow River once flowed through here, which gave birth to fertile soil. In the early years when people all depended on the land for their livelihood, this place was considered wealthy.
However, with the development of the times, now, the vast majority of farmers have gradually given up farming and started other businesses, such as small businesses or opening stores - at least, this is the case in Manshi County. It is very common - because Mangshi County is located at the junction of three provinces, the transportation is extremely convenient. You may earn more by doing business on the roadside than farming, and it is also relatively easy.
However, this is only for people who live on the roadside. In fact, here, especially in rural areas, there is very little talk of renting houses. Even if it is a store, few people will rent it.
Because people are indolent, the new generation of young people don’t like to work in the fields, and they don’t want to live a life with their faces facing the loess and their backs to the sky. So when they get married, they open a small shop in a house on the roadside, although they make a lot of money. Not much money, life is quite comfortable.
But for those people on the roadside in the courtyard, they had to continue farming. While scolding the people on the roadside for not knowing how to manage, they envied them, and the days passed like this.
Xiaojiazhuang is in a very embarrassing position. This village is not far from the main road, but it is not close either. If you want to open a store, the location is not good. If you want to farm, you can see the excellent people in the neighboring villages when you look up. Zaiyouzai opened a shop and lived a very uncomfortable life, and these people couldn't help but feel jealous.
Under this situation, the people in Xiaojiazhuang have become somewhat narrow-minded, selfish, and have some disgusting habits - such as occasionally stealing, and having bad thoughts when they see others being richer than their own family.
Ji Feng sometimes wonders whether the fact that he has been bullied since he was a child in this place where human nature is no longer simple may be related to the selfish and bad character of these people!
Along the way, Ji Feng looked at the many stores on both sides and couldn't help but shake his head and smile: "Everything is overflowing now. Although the population in this rural area is large, the consumption power is not very good. Now everyone is opening stores. Go Whose money are you making?!”
Xiao Sumei, who was sitting in the back seat, couldn't help but shake her head: "I have no choice, I don't want to work in the fields. In the past, it was an honor for anyone whose fields were managed well, and the neighbors were envious of them. But now everything has changed. These things The money they make from the shop may not be as good as farming, but they like it very much and feel good about themselves!”
Ji Feng chuckled and said: "Actually, this is the same as city people looking at country people. Most of those city people are office workers, with a salary of several thousand yuan a month. If they farm in the countryside, With good management, the average monthly income may be tens of thousands, or even more, but in the eyes of those city people, they are still country bumpkins. Those people have never thought that whether they have food, clothing, housing, or transportation, In fact, they are not as good as rural people, so why do you have to elevate yourself to such a high position?"
"There are people who smile and hate others. This has been the case since ancient times. City people may not be able to compare with country people in terms of income, so they can only find some face in other ways. I discovered during my time in Yanjing There are many examples like this. People in Yanjing look down on outsiders, and people in Jiangzhou look down on outsiders, but their income may not be as good as others. In fact, this is a mentality problem." Xiao Sumei saw that her son was talking happily, and she also I couldn't help but smile and say a few more words.
Ji Feng couldn't help but burst into laughter. This was indeed the case. Just like what his mother said, many people were inferior to others in some areas, and when they spoke, they wanted to regain face in other aspects.
This is what is called sarcastic remarks! It can be regarded as an inexplicable sense of superiority, but in fact it is a manifestation of guilty conscience.
"Xiao Feng, after arriving at Xiaojiazhuang, if those people say anything sarcastic, don't talk to them and just ignore them!" Xiao Sumei was still a little worried and couldn't help but warn her.
Ji Feng smiled and said: "Mom, don't worry. Now that I'm here, I won't give up my job just because of some people's gossip. I will at least cure it... By the way, Mom, I can't guarantee that I can cure it. You I also know that your son is not a miracle doctor. He just got a kind of medicine by chance, but medicine is not a panacea... "
"Mom knows that as long as you try your best, no one else can say anything!" Xiao Sumei said.
Ji Feng smiled and nodded, but secretly said in his heart, what can't those people say? If I really can't cure the old man, I will drown myself just by making sarcastic remarks!
"Xiaoying, after passing the embankment in front, we are almost at the turning point. Slow down!" Ji Feng picked up the walkie-talkie and whispered.
"Yes!" Xiaoying responded.
Ji Feng chuckled, but thought with self-deprecation in his heart, Xiaojiazhuang and I are really destined. I haven't been back for more than ten years. I didn't expect that I can still remember the way to Xiaojiazhuang so clearly... I'm really a bitch. !
If possible, Ji Feng really wants to forget everything about Xiaojiazhuang, even the path. But this is impossible. Xiaojiazhuang and the Xiao family have given Ji Feng such a deep memory that he cannot forget it even if he wants to.
Suddenly, Ji Feng's eyes subconsciously glanced at the rear mirror, but he was shocked to find that his mother's face seemed a little nervous.
He couldn't help but shake his head slightly. It was somewhat difficult for him to understand his mother's nervousness. What was there to be nervous about? Now I am going to bring them the gospel myself, not asking them to do things.
Over the years, they have always owed themselves, and I have never owed them anything.
In Ji Feng's memory, he seemed to have never had a meal in Xiaojiazhuang, not even a sip of water. The only time he had eaten was when he stole some wild vegetables from others in the wild. , this has nothing to do with the Xiao family.
So in Ji Feng's opinion, at most he is willing or unwilling to come, which has nothing to do with nervousness. As for his mother's nervousness, Ji Feng doesn't understand it even more. Is she worried about the old man's illness
"Xiao Feng, stop the car!" Xiao Sumei suddenly said.
Ji Feng was startled and couldn't help asking: "Mom, what's wrong?"
"I, I seem to have seen your second uncle!" Xiao Sumei said hesitantly, "The one standing on the roadside in front talking to others seems to be your second uncle!"
Ji Feng raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Mom, you can't park here, you'd better wait until you get there!"
He didn't care who was standing in front of him. He came here this time to treat the old man's illness. As for the other seven aunts and eight aunts, they had nothing to do with him!
Xiao Sumei opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say. She also knew that it might not be easy to get Ji Feng to talk to his second uncle. Ji Feng's coming this time was already a great honor.
Xiao Sumei naturally knows what kind of stubborn temper her son is, otherwise, she wouldn't have gone to Jiangzhou in person... It's better to take it easy!
Ji Feng gradually accelerated with an expressionless face, but his eyes fell on a group of people not far ahead. This was a group of typical farm men. Several people were standing on the roadside, and some were squatting, smoking and joking. In front of them, there are various tools, such as masonry knives, iron plates, etc. They look like plasterers!
Ji Feng glanced over and found that among these people, there was a middle-aged man of medium build standing aside smoking a cigarette. He didn't speak much and seemed to be honest and courteous.
However, Ji Feng saw some similarities with his mother from his face. I guess this is the so-called second uncle, right
The car drove by quickly, Ji Feng's eyes calmly retracted, and he concentrated on driving and stopped caring about anything.
Xiao Sumei looked outside through the car window and wanted to speak, but she hesitated.
But at this time, the plasterers outside were surprised.
"Look, look, isn't this the BMW shown on TV?" one person said in surprise.
"Come on, how can a BMW come to this crappy place like ours?"
"That's not necessarily the case. Even if it's not a BMW, you must be a very rich person looking at how beautiful your car is!"
"Huh? I, I think I saw Sumei in the car!"
"I bother!"
The others burst into laughter, pointing at a middle-aged man and laughing: "I say Xiao Guoqing, are you crazy because of your poverty? How can your crooked sister be able to drive such a good car? You really That’s nice to say!”
"You, you fart!" The middle-aged man Xiao Guoqing's face turned red with anger, "Isn't it just that you got pregnant without getting married? What's the big deal? Just because of the gossip like you bastards, my sister has been without a child for more than ten years. I went back home and now I don’t even know where I am... Ergouzi, you still have the nerve to say that you fell into the river more than ten years ago and your dick froze in the middle of the winter. No one else knows about this. , but I rescued you, don’t I know it? How could you give birth to a child when you don’t even have tools? No one else is serious, but your mother-in-law is serious?!"
"You, you..." The two Gouzi's faces turned red when Xiao Guoqing said it, but he was speechless. He tried to attack but was unable to hit the strong Xiao Guoqing, so he could only snort bitterly. Squat down and smoke.
"Hahaha..." When the others saw this, they burst into laughter. Most of the whole village knew that Ergouzi's wife stole from the man, including the village chief, but no one said it clearly! Now that Xiao Guoqing said it, everyone was very happy.
"Smile, laugh at your mother's legs!"
Xiao Guoqing pointed at one of the younger ones and cursed: "Donkey Danzi, you have the nerve to laugh at others. You were working well outside, why did you suddenly come back? Do you dare to tell me?!"
Uh-huh!
The young man's face turned red, but he was speechless!
