Chapter 466 Complaining
Liang Xi pretended not to hear it, and still had a smile on his face, saying, "Hold it all, buy whatever you want."
Fu Song said: "Listen to your third aunt, take it."
Only then did Fu Hua accept the New Year's money and said, "Thank you, Uncle and Aunt."
Fu Song saw that it was time to go to pay New Year's greetings. This time he had to take his son to earn some New Year's money...
I went to Fu Dong's house first, and sure enough, I collected fifty yuan of New Year's money. Then I went to my elder brother's house with Fu Dong, and collected another fifty yuan, which was still two hundred yuan short of the capital.
After spending more than an hour to pay New Year's greetings, I collected a total of 132 yuan of New Year's money. I counted it again unwillingly. Yes, I sighed: "This year is a loss."
Liang Xi laughed and said, "You will cause trouble!"
When I got home, there were still a steady stream of people coming to pay New Year's greetings. It turned out that being of a big seniority was not a good thing, it was too noisy.
I saw Ji Peng and his childhood playmates were there, because of their young age, they could only stand in the corner, unable to even get in the conversation, and they yawned boredly.
Fu Song asked them to go to the door to smoke and bask in the sun.
I haven't sat together and chatted like this for many years. Except for Ji Peng, the remaining four people, Fu Song, had a glass of wine with them when he got married last year, without saying a word.
But after all, I was a playmate who grew up naked since childhood. After recalling the past, the atmosphere immediately became lively. Several people exposed each other's shortcomings and burst into laughter from time to time.
Chen Hu said: "Last year, I was in your house, and Lao Liu said that it was all you could do."
Fu Song said: "I'm back this year, he hasn't come back."
Chen Hu said: "It's not that, it means you don't have children."
"Fuck! Lao Liu, this bastard, is responding to the national call. He is late and having children. Who is like him? He has a child after two years of graduation, and he will get married with his children. This bastard will be shot when he is severely beaten."
After saying that, he felt a little guilty. The eldest brother didn't talk about the second brother, strictly speaking, he got married with his son.
Chen Xiangdong sighed and said, "You and Lao Liu are both promising, unlike us. Oh, if I listened to the teacher and studied hard..."
"You should just pull it down. You have to use both hands to calculate the numbers. No matter how much you learn, it will be useless."
"Get out! You said it as if you were better than me. At that time, you were beaten the most times. After the teacher finished beating, your father would continue to beat him home."
"Ha ha……."
Seeing that Ji Peng didn't say much, Fu Song said, "I haven't gone to see your little daughter after I come back."
The other few people laughed kindly, and Ji Peng yelled: "Smile! Apart from Chen Hu and Fu Song, you three have sons, don't you give birth to a daughter like me? If you have the ability, continue to give birth to a person with a hand!"
Chen Xiangdong said: "We can't afford to give birth, one is enough."
Li Qiang said: "I will rebirth in two years, so I will slowly start."
Li Songyan said: "My father has been urging me in the past two years, but I really don't want it. Why do I do when I was born? I will endure hardships with the adults?"
Ji Peng lowered his head and said, "No, my little daughter is the most pitiful. My wife lacks milk and can't afford to eat milk powder. She is so hungry that she cries at night. Alas..."
Seeing that everyone was talking and laughing just now, everyone was dejected, Fu Song felt quite uncomfortable.
Although rural people can have enough food, they can't save money after working hard for a year. Especially in the past two years, inflation has been severe and prices have soared. In order to ensure that the living standards of urban residents will not be reduced, the country has tried hard to lower the prices of agricultural products, agricultural taxes, village retention, township coordination, various levies and employment-based projects. Except for agricultural taxes paid in the form of public grain, other miscellaneous expenses are not in kind, and must be paid in the form of currency. In this way, there is another grain sales link, and farmers are cut by scissors.
Taking Ying County as an example, after paying the public grain, each farmer has to pay an average of more than 120 yuan of various miscellaneous fees each year.
How much grain purchase price is now? How much grain has to be sold to make up so much money? After paying all the taxes and fees, how much can the farmers have left?
People in the city are humans, but people in the countryside are not humans?
Fu Songben thought that his heart was hard enough, but now he felt more depressed and unhappy in his heart. But he didn't know how to vent his heart, so he was so frustrated that he wanted to shout a few times!
During lunch, Fu Song was not energetic, so he threw down his chopsticks and went back to the house after taking a few bites.
Liang Xi felt that his man's condition was not right and lost his appetite. After eating, he handed the child to Du Juan. When he returned to the room, he asked, "What's wrong?"
Fu Song lay on the kang with his arms pillowing and said in a muffled voice: "Annoyed!"
Liang Xi lay on the crack in the door and took a look, then threw herself on him, licked his lips with his tongue, and smiled, "What annoying? Tell me, let me be happy too."
After being together for a long time, even Fu Song learned his tone and expression of his speech vividly.
Fu Song reached out to her, hugged her very tightly, and after a while, he said in a deep voice: "I used to think that as long as I have money and a lot of money, I can do some things I want to do and some meaningful things. But after so much trouble, I suddenly realized that I seemed to be wrong and thought things too simple."
Liang Xi didn't say anything, just lay on his chest and listened quietly. She understood him. He was just tired and wanted to talk to someone.
"Sometimes, if you know too much, you will lose a lot of happiness. I would rather live like a fool, make a little money, marry a virtuous wife, have a pair of children, and then eat and wait for death."
When Liang Xi heard this, he was a little angry. What did he mean? He seemed to be unvirtuous, and he also seemed to blame her for giving birth to a son and not having a daughter for her.
"I suddenly don't know what to do now, and I don't know if what I want to do is meaningful, or even worth it."
Liang Xi suddenly couldn't bear to blame him, stroked his green chin and whispered: "As long as you have a clear conscience, I think it's meaningful, really! Let's talk about me, how many children have you helped after the foundation was established last year? In fact, there are not many, but I just keep busy. You don't say that it's possible to do it. If you don't do anything, then there's nothing at all."
Fu Song hugged her tighter again and said, "I feel so breathless that I want to ripple my throat and shout a few times, but I feel it's too pretentious."
Liang Xi said: "That day you advised me not to meddle in other people's business. Why is it not working well when you are here? You just think too much, okay, don't think about it anymore. I've been tired of you these days. Go to bed, go to bed, be good..."
Fu Song felt funny. Just as he was about to open his mouth, Liang Xi covered his mouth, "Assuming, hug me and sleep. I will not serve anyone this afternoon, just serve my man."
