Chapter 120 Homeland Belonging

Because of years of fighting, blood feuds formed between many surnames and villages. When Wu Chen was young, there were still many villages that could not intermarry or cross boundaries.Children in school also formed cliques, and there were constant group fights, and there were many incidents where children's fights evolved into gang fights among young people, and then the whole village fought with weapons.

According to the second aunt on the phone, the two big villages in the town have been fighting for many days, and it has become more and more fierce.The cause was that a dirt truck from one village ran over and killed a child from another village. The parents of the two sides started working before they had reached an agreement. Soon the young people from the two villages got involved and began to beat and beat each other. Market stalls for buying and selling.

At this point, the old people's group in the village came forward to gather the young and strong forces of all the houses to concentrate, deploy and distribute weapons in a unified way, officially entering a war mode that has not been seen for many years.

The fight was fierce, not only various conventional weapons such as sabers, flywheels, and water pipes, but also guns were used.Now entering a stalemate, roads are blocked on both sides, and teams are patrolling.

The town government couldn't coordinate, and the police station was smashed several times in turn by both sides. Now the four teams in the town simply patted their buttocks and went to the Hong Kong government and other places for "investigation and study".

Most of the "residents" living on the streets of the town were foreigners like Wu Chen's parents, but they were caught in the middle, so they simply packed up their things and returned to their hometowns in the countryside.

Da Ya was dumbfounded when he heard this, and called his uncle's house in the countryside, and sure enough his parents were there, so he felt relieved.

The two of them didn't eat much along the way, they only ate some bread in the service area, and now they were hungry, so they had to go back to the county town, first went to school to pick up Du Qin, found a small restaurant, and had a random meal .

Du Qin naturally complained, saying that he didn't notify in advance when he came back, and asked about Wu Chen's health. He had also asked about it on the phone before, and now he was relieved after meeting in person.

In the end, they talked about the recent weapon fight in their town, and lamented that it was so unbelievable that it has become so troublesome.In this Internet age, it is even more inconceivable that Internet experts do not even post a Weibo post.

After dinner, seeing that they were going back, Du Qin was worried at first, saying that there were too many white *fans, looting everywhere, and it was dark and windy at night, and they were driving non-local vehicles, which was very unsafe. Stay overnight at school and come back tomorrow.

Wu Chen was worried about the situation at home, and had to go back no matter what. In the end, he drove Da Ya home first, and then drove to his own village.

The air in the countryside is good, the moon and stars are sparse, and the path leading to the village is narrow and winding. Fortunately, Wu Chen is familiar with it, and he drove slowly, bypassing the entire village, and drove towards his home from the outer rural road.

Wu Chen also grew up in the village when he was a child. Although he hasn't come back for many years, when he stepped into this land, he felt very familiar and down-to-earth. What is hometown?Perhaps, it is this inexplicable sense of security and belonging!

Their family is in the village, and there are two houses. One is the family's ancestral house, which is located in the village's old village. Now it is mainly used to enshrine the heads of the ancestors.

The other place is behind the old school in the village. It belongs to the outskirts of the village. It was built when he was young. Before moving to the town, his family lived there. Will live there, just drive around the periphery of the village.

Their village is a typical Funan building. The whole village is divided into three big round stockades. At first, this kind of building group was mainly used to prevent bandits and fight with weapons. Later, these stockades gradually fell into disuse, and the villagers built some new houses scattered outside.

Walking on the country road, from a distance, you can see that the lights at home are bright. At night in the country, it is not as bright as in the city. In the darkness and tranquility around, a light far away makes people feel Extra warm.

Wu Chen parked his car at the dirt yard at the door. As soon as he got out of the car, he saw his father standing at the door looking around, and hurriedly called "Dad". Although their house was old, it occupied a lot of land. Beside the ancient well, there is an old longan tree with a light bulb on it. Summer nights often drink tea and chat here.

Wu Chen's father heard a dog barking, and saw a small car driving to his door in the middle of the night. He was wondering when he saw his son. He was so happy that he didn't know what to say. But he only nodded reservedly, hummed, turned and entered the door, and told Mama Wu calmly that his son had returned.

Wu Chen's mother was drinking tea with Wu Chen's uncle and aunt, watching TV and chatting about trivial matters in the village. Hearing what Wu's father said, she hurriedly put on her slippers and walked out. Sure enough, she saw her son getting out of the car. Taking things out of the box, I hurried over to help.

She was happy in her heart, but complained in her mouth, what's the matter, she came back in the middle of the night without saying anything in advance!It's so late, have you eaten yet?He also complained that Wu's father didn't know how to help his son carry things, so what kind of majesty did he pretend to be!

Wu Chen listened to his mother's nagging with a smile, occasionally explaining.After the mother and son took the things, they saw their uncle and aunt standing at the door with a smile on their faces. A four or five-year-old girl was hiding behind her aunt, poking her head out secretly, looking at Wu Chen curiously.Wu Chen hurried forward and called out his uncle and aunt.

"Hey, Xiaochen is back!" Uncle replied with a smile, he is the youngest, he is very different from Wu Chen's mother in age, and only ten years older than Wu Chen, "Little girl, call me brother! This is my cousin who works in the provincial government!"

Wu Chen gave a wry smile. It could be seen that his uncle still cared about his status of working in the provincial government. Thinking about how many years he hadn't returned to the countryside, he didn't have winter and summer vacations after work. Tian is also in the town, and I feel that I am not doing well, and this relative's house is not diligent in running, and I feel a little guilty.

When I went back to my hometown a few years ago, there was only one boy in my uncle's family. I didn't expect that there was a little girl now, and she grew up so big.

Wu's father and uncle helped Wu Chen carry things back to the house slowly amidst his mother's nagging.After being busy for a while, the family finally sat down again. Seeing that the little girl was a little shy, Wu Chen took out a bunch of snacks for her and teased her to play.Seeing that my mother was going to cook, she said that she had just finished eating, sat down, took out a cigarette, and offered cigarettes to her father and uncle first.

Wu Ma was the eldest in her natal family. When Wu Chen was born, her uncles and aunts were still unmarried. They loved him very much as a nephew, even more than her own parents. Dear ones, although I have not visited for many years, it is also because I have become more and more lazy, and I am also a little dissatisfied with the situation, and I feel a little ashamed of my parents and fellow villagers.

Uncle was not too polite, he took Wu Chen's cigarettes carelessly, and this kid followed his ass when he started walking. Although he is now an "official" in the province, he is his uncle!

As the old saying goes, "Thunder in the sky, uncle in the ground"!In their area, the authority of the uncle is extremely great. For important family affairs such as marriage and family separation, the uncle has to take the lead, and that is to take the lead!

"By the way, why are you back? Don't you have to go to work?" Wu Ma sat down after finishing her work, and only then did she remember to ask this very important question.Father Wu also looked at his son suspiciously. At this time, it was not a festival, why did he come back suddenly?They moved back, afraid that Wu Chen would be worried, but they didn't tell him!

"Resigned." Wu Chen said in a calm tone as much as possible, but the pot exploded among several people, asking what was going on. Even Father Wu, who was carrying water to make tea, put down the teapot, a little surprised looking at the son.

"What's going on?!" Wu Ma was a little at a loss. Her son knew that although Wu Chen had a stubborn personality, he was not the one who caused trouble. But no matter what, he never thought that it was his son who resigned on his own initiative.

Wu Chen smiled wryly. He had expected this situation a long time ago. In their place where traditional culture dominates, the official-based thinking is much more serious than other places. Didn't he also be deeply affected, otherwise when he resigned at that time, he would have It will not be delayed.

He had no choice but to explain to his elders slowly according to the words he had made up in advance. In order to buffer the shock, he naturally needed to brag about himself. Come out and do it alone.

This nonsense is also justified. To throw out a big news first, no matter what, it is the right way to bluff them first. With this foundation, it will be easier to talk later.

Of course, bullshit must have evidence. The S350 with big teeth at the door is a good proof. Speaking again, obviously it will take a while to digest.

"Chen, this, we didn't do anything illegal, right?" After a moment of silence, Wu Ma asked cautiously. She knew Wu Chen's income. Actually suffering!Earn so much money all at once?Even those who engage in smuggling are not so fast, right?She was worried in her heart, and all the people present were blood relatives, so she had no scruples and asked out anyway.

"Puchi——" Wu Chen laughed, knowing that his mother would be worried about this, "Mom, where do you want to go! This is all I earned from the jade business with Da Ya, and of course there is also some money from buying and selling antiques. of."

"Jade business?" Wu Ma still doesn't understand why stones are so valuable, isn't this stealing money!

"I know! Do you know that Yangmei Village in the nearby county? They are in the jade business! I heard that they have made money in the past few years, and every household has a fortune of over [-] million!" Uncle Wu suddenly interjected. Believe me, my nephew, how clever he is, he can do anything!

"So powerful?" Wu Ma glanced at her younger brother, and seeing his determined look, she believed in her heart. Her younger brother has been a well-known bastard since he was a child, and he has more information than she, a rural woman. .

"Is this business stable? It's a good job, and you can resign if you say goodbye?" Father Wu smoked a few puffs of smoke. Apart from worry, he was also a little dissatisfied. For such a big matter, his son didn't even discuss it with him in advance!

In his opinion, there is nothing more secure than working in the government. Although he is making money now, there will be a long life in the future!It is not so easy to get a job in this provincial government, and the country will support it for a lifetime!
