Transform into a fairy girl

The dilapidated courtyard carries the memories of Ji's father for half his life, so he doesn't want this courtyard to disappear just like that.

He spent a whole day removing all the weeds in the yard and sweeping it carefully.

Although he was very tired and could not even straighten his back, he was very satisfied and contented when looking at the brand-new small yard.

In the evening, Dad Ji went to the well behind to get a bucket of water. It was still clear and dry.

He went to the firewood room, lit a fire, boiled a pot of water, and then found some wild vegetables to cook for the family's dinner.

Mother Ji looked at those vegetables and her brows were furrowed. In what age are we still eating these vegetables?

Although Mother Ji and Father Ji are of the same age, their family backgrounds are very different. The conditions of Mother Ji’s family are much better than those of Father Ji’s family. Although they are both from poor days, Mother Ji’s family background has been very different since she was a child. She has never eaten steamed buns. When she was a child, she ate white flour steamed buns dipped in sugar. At that time, it was equivalent to the oatmeal bread rolls with cheese we eat now.

When Ji's father was a child, he couldn't even eat vegetables. During the lean season, Ji's father's mother used some bark, roots and some unnamed wild vegetables to cook them together, and then gave them to the family. eat.

Those wild vegetables and tree roots are really unpalatable. Some of them are even bitter, even worse than traditional Chinese medicine.

However, in order not to starve, Ji's father and his brothers and sisters had no choice but to hold their noses and feed into their stomachs.

Later, life got better day by day, and Ji’s father hadn’t eaten Cai Wo Wo in his hometown for many years.

"Don't think this vegetable nest is unpalatable. When I was a child, I rarely had this kind of pure vegetable nest." Dad Ji said, taking a big bite of the vegetable nest in his hand. .

"Isn't your family a rich farmer? Rich farmers can't afford Cai Wo Wo?" Ji's mother rolled her eyes and asked.

"What kind of rich peasants? After liberation, they had nothing. They were the same as ordinary people. When it comes to being rich, it is not nothing. I heard my aunt say that my family used to be quite rich and was a well-known big landowner. I am too My grandfather ran a shop, and all the customers who came and went stayed in my shop. The house at that time was almost as big as a stadium. When I was a child, I still remember that the gate of my house was very tall, with a big four-horse horse. Trucks can get in and out easily." Ji's father said with envy as he recalled the past.

"Blow, blow. Just like your mother, she likes to brag." Ji's mother didn't believe what Ji's father said was true, because when she got married, the Ji family was very poor. They didn't even have a TV, so they got married in a muddle.

"I'm not bragging to you. My great-grandfather married a concubine with four wives. Think about it, if my family was very poor, could my great-great-grandfather marry four wives? Look around my hometown. They are all from the same clan as ours. In the past, We are a big family." Ji's father and Ji's mother said.

Mother Ji had heard about it. When the matchmaker introduced them to them, she said that Father Ji's family was a big family. Although they were from the countryside, they were very nice people. That's why Mother Ji agreed to meet Father Ji at that time.

Later, the two of them had a good conversation, and it was time to talk about marriage. As a result, when she came to Ji's father's house for the first time, Ji's mother regretted it. Who knew that such a big family could live in such a small courtyard?

& nb

sp;At that time, in order to appease Mother Ji, Ji Ran's grandmother patted her chest and promised Mother Ji that this house would be hers in the future. It is a rural rule for an old boy to keep the house, so in the future, this yard will also belong to Father Ji's name. of.

Mother Ji was young and inexperienced at the time, so she really believed it after being fooled by Grandma Ji like this.

However, who would have thought that things would be different after getting married.

Not to mention the entire courtyard, even the west wing in the far west was almost occupied by two people.

What was even more irritating was that later they even took back the small west wing room, which made me very angry.

Fortunately, Ji's father had a good job later. After working together for more than ten years, the two of them finally bought a house in the city. Otherwise, they would not even have a place to live.

"Have you asked his uncle whether he is dead or alive?" Ji's mother asked, looking at Ji's father.

Father Ji was silent and shook his head.

Since the disaster occurred, many people have fled. Ji's father and mother Ji only focused on escaping for their lives along the way, not knowing where the people from their hometown had gone.

Later, after the disaster passed, people returned to their hometowns one after another, and organized manpower to re-register people to make it easier to check their relatives.

However, during the registration process, many survivors of the disaster left their jobs temporarily. They thought this was a good opportunity to live in the big cities. Anyway, their homes were destroyed and everything was in dire need. No one knew who was who. Details.

Some victims who fled from rural areas just said that they were from the city. As long as no one had conclusive evidence to prove that they were lying, they were usually given urban household registration.

Although Ji's father and mother Ji also want to have urban hukou, they still want to go back to their hometown to visit.

He still couldn't bear to part with this small courtyard in his home.

After returning to his hometown, Ji's father went around to inquire about the whereabouts of his relatives. As a result, 90.00% of the people in the entire Shayu Village disappeared. Most of them went to other cities, and only a few old people who were older than Ji's father came back.

They are older and have thick local accents, so they cannot pass themselves off as city dwellers.

In addition, they have lived on this piece of yellow land for most of their lives, and when they are about to die, they no longer want to travel around. They just want to return to their old house, spend their old age peacefully, and hope that the disaster will come to an end. Don't let it happen again.

Ji's father asked some elders in the village about his family, but no one knew where his family had gone.

The village party secretary was transferred from the neighboring village. He used to be a middle school teacher and was somewhat educated. However, he did not know much about Shayu Village and was only responsible for the future planning and reconstruction of Shayu Village.

Ji's father asked the village party secretary several times. The village party secretary didn't know where his family members had gone. The household register given by the department did not include the names of the relatives he mentioned. After registering them, Ji's father asked him to Waiting for news.

Father Ji knew that the wait might take a long time, maybe days, maybe months, or years, or even never be found.

"You should inquire carefully. Don't waste all your efforts to repair the yard. Then your seven aunts and eight aunts will come back and shamelessly snatch the house." Ji's mother gave Ji's father a warning in advance. vaccination.
