Chapter 130 She also received a consolation prize
The heavy snow falls lightly, accumulating less and adding more. The next night, the snow on the roof will accumulate thicker and thicker. The thicker the snow, the heavier it will be. When the roof cannot bear the weight of the snow, it will not care whether there is any in your house. People always collapse when they say they will.

It would be better during the day. Some villagers would find their own way to climb onto the roof, slowly remove the snow from the roof, and reduce the load-bearing capacity of the roof so that it would be safer.

The heavy snow kept coming and going for more than half a month, and it didn't stop completely until early February.

As soon as the heavy snow stopped and the sun rose, the snow on the ground finally began to melt, and the snow on the mountains also began to melt.

The silver of the earth has dispersed, and spring is finally ushering in the flowers.

A ruthless heavy snow has receded, and it is time for the villagers who were affected by the heavy snow to stand up and rebuild their homes.

Fortunately, this country is also warm, and the government will provide subsidies to the people affected by the disaster based on the disaster situation.

After the government made an accounting, the money was uniformly sent to Li Zheng, and then distributed by each village.

There are a total of 23 households affected by the disaster in Shihe Village, including Baitaotao's house.

Fortunately, there is a field behind their village. That field saved Shihe Village during the avalanche, providing a buffer for the falling snow. Otherwise, the avalanche would have been enough to bury the entire Shihe Village.

The 21 families who suffered were knocked down by Xuelang.

Fortunately, everyone came out at that time, which can be considered a blessing in misfortune.

Chen Lizheng went to the county in the morning to get the money back for everyone. He summoned everyone to discuss the matter before he had time to eat lunch.

"I have called you here for discussion today because I have a few things to tell you. One is the suffering situation in our village. The other is that the subsidies from the government have come down. The other one is that from last year to this year, there are also many difficulties. , so the money given to you is not very much, so I want to discuss it with you and see how to help you get the house settled first.”

Listening to Chen Lizheng's words, everyone knows that the money will definitely not be much, but it is better than nothing.

Zhao Tieshan said: "No matter how much or how little, a little bit is a comfort."

Big Fatty Zheng: "Li Zheng, let's distribute the money subsidized from above to everyone first, so that everyone can have a sense of how much money they have in their hands."

Chen Lizheng: "Sure, let's pay the money first."

As he spoke, Chen Lizheng began to ask the suffering villagers to line up to collect money.

All 23 households were given out quickly.

However, after Chen Lizheng finished handing out the gifts, he realized that Bai Taotao had not come to collect them, so he shouted, "Daughter-in-law Youyi, why didn't you come to collect them?"

Bai Taotao was a little surprised when she heard this: "Ah? Do I have one too?"

She thought her family was in good condition and would not be compensated by her superiors. Unexpectedly, it was rain and dew evenly, which was quite good. At least she felt some comfort in her heart.

Although her house itself is ready to be demolished.

Chen Lizheng: "The above means that there are all the fellow villagers who have suffered. Although your family's situation is not bad, your share is not missing, it's just not much."

Bai Taotao stepped forward to receive the money and asked jokingly: "Then how much money did my family subsidize?"

Chen Lizheng didn't think much and replied: "Fifty renminbi."

Hearing this number, Bai Taotao almost stumbled and fell in front of everyone.

It's really a consolation prize.

But she didn't mind it, anyway, don't be a fool if you give her money for free. Bai Taotao stepped forward and pressed her fingerprints to receive the consolation prize from above. Then Chen Lizheng continued:

"Next, this is what I think. The village will give fifty taels, and then everyone will see if they can help. Of course, this depends on everyone's voluntariness and is not forced on everyone, so don't feel unhappy. Not happy."

Zheng Orion: "We are all fellow villagers in the same village. We should help each other when we have difficulties. If you are able, help more. If you are not able to contribute, you can do it." After speaking, Zheng Orion took out a tael of silver from his arms. Then he stepped forward and put it into the donation box in front of him.

Doctor Zheng also donated one tael.

Several clan elders each donated half a tael.

Seeing this, other villagers stepped forward and donated some, without keeping names or counting, so that others could compare.

Zheng Orion is different from the clan elders. They take the lead.

After everyone had finished donating, Bai Taotao stood up and said, "Well, I won't join in the fun of collecting donations with you, but..."

"Look, the richest man in the village is still the richest, and the villagers are not willing to give out a penny after suffering." Before Bai Taotao could say anything else, Mrs. Chen Liu tilted her neck and muttered loudly.

She deliberately spoke loudly so that everyone could hear her. She thought everyone would definitely point at Bai Taotao this time, but as soon as she opened her mouth, the villagers said in rare tacit agreement: "Shut up."

Chen Sanpo: "You have a crooked neck and you can't stop talking. I have already said that I will donate or not. Is it your turn to shout here?"

Mrs. Chen Zhou: "That's right. You said you have Yi's wife, how much did you donate yourself?"

... Mrs. Chen Liu didn’t dare to say anything because she didn’t donate a single penny.

Bai Taotao ignored Chen Liu's cancer and continued: "Because the folks who suffered this time are all workers in my workshop, so I won't join in the fun with you in my personal name. I will use my workshop as a In the name of the victims, each family will be given a subsidy of five taels of silver.”

After hearing what Bai Taotao said, the villagers immediately denounced Chen Liu with confidence.

"Now are you saying that Youyi's wife is stingy?"

"You said, if you have the ability, you should donate some."

"Shut up if you don't have the guts, or don't come here next time. It's nothing to do with you anyway. Your body is half bent, so just lie down in the room."

"This retribution will make the whole family lame and crooked. It's true that only one family can enter the family."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Chen Liu tilted her neck half way and started to twitch her mouth again, "You...you..."

Granny Chen: "Ms. Chen Wang, help your sister-in-law back down quickly. Don't blame her for being angry with us if she starts twitching again after a while."

Mrs. Chen Wang responded: "Oh, okay." Then she and her daughter-in-law Chen Lin helped Mrs. Chen Liu back.

Now there are only three members of Chen Liu's family. Chen Youcai was injured due to yawning in the snow before, and then he suffered from leg disease again. Now he is still lying in bed unable to get out of bed.

After Bai Taotao woke up, Ms. Chen Liu had nothing to do and she didn't know why she got angry at home and had convulsions. In the end, her upper body, half of her face and hands became inoperable.

Chen Deyi seems to have been ill these past two days, and he hears coughing noises at home every day.

Originally, it didn't matter whether their family came to discuss the matter or not, but when Chen Liu heard that the money was being distributed, she thought that everyone had it, so she insisted on running over.

No, you get slapped in the face every time you stand up, and you get hurt every time you get hit. You don’t learn your lesson, you don’t know how to shut up.
