It was Zhu Maocai's neighbor who spoke, named Wang Zhu.

His father is the old man Wang who has frequently appeared in the mouths of Mrs. He and Zhu Daniu recently, that is, the one who was fined 3,000 yuan for being a superchild.

Wang Zhu is like some negative textbooks of this era, the poorer he is, the poorer he is, the poorer he is.

It has been almost ten years since the implementation of the family planning policy, and Wang Zhu and his daughter-in-law have also given birth to ten years, giving birth to four daughters one after another, and the family has been punished to poverty.

Old man Wang is 58 years old this year, and he and his son have to go to the city to work every winter, just to make up the fine for their son.

In the past ten years, the family has not saved a penny, there is nothing of value, and the house of the family is also the most dilapidated in the entire Xiaoqinghe Village.

It's just that the family seems to have fallen into evil, and they are desperate to have a son.

finally got her wish this year, and Wang Zhu's daughter-in-law successfully gave birth to a big fat boy weighing eight pounds after going to half her life.

But Wang Zhu's father and son were so happy, even if they were fined 3,000 yuan and borrowed a lot of debts, they were so happy that they couldn't keep their mouths shut every day.

In the past, Wang Zhu and Zhu Mao were difficult brothers, and their relationship in private was not bad.

Now that Wang Zhu has a son, he suddenly feels that his waist is straightened, and he looks at Zhu Maocai with a sense of superiority.

"yes, I'm not going to give birth. ”

Feng Che said it so neatly, he glanced at Wang Zhu, who was complacent, and the corner of his eye caught the prying eyes around him, and the corner of his lips hooked up a smile.

He suddenly asked, "Brother Wang, do you not like your son, or is your son your enemy in your previous life?"

"Nonsense, how could I not like my son. "You can insult Wang Zhuqiang, but you must not insult his sincerity to his son!

Feng Che raised his eyebrows, "Then I don't understand, since you like your son so much, why did you give birth to him to be poor?"

Wang Zhu: ......

What do you mean, this is a turning around the corner and scolding me for being poor?

Feng Che continued, "Look at my eldest brother-in-law, that's what really hurts my son." There are houses in the county and town, as well as a non-staple food store that makes money every day, and there are small western-style houses and motorcycles at home. ”

Feng Che glanced at Wang Zhu again, and said unceremoniously, "Brother Wang, your son is miserable, what do you want, just a few broken tile houses and a butt of debts, tsk, that's it, you still say you like your son?"

Wang Zhu instinctively wanted to argue, but he couldn't say it.

Because Feng Che was telling the truth, his family really had no money, and he borrowed a debt of 3,000 yuan.

With their family's annual income of three to five hundred, this debt will have to be repaid for five or six years without eating or drinking.

But the problem is that they have a family of eight or nine, they still have to eat, and their children still have to go to school, so it will take more than ten years to pay off their debts.

At that time, the son will also grow up, and it is time to consider building a house for the son and marrying a daughter-in-law.

Now it's not like in the past, if you give some food and some money, you can marry a daughter-in-law and come back.

What three turns and one sound, what thirty-six legs, not ten thousand dollars, don't even think about it.

In this way, you have to go into debt when you get married.

But is it all over when you get married?

Think beautifully!

Once you're married, it's time to have children.

In case the son also gives birth to three or five daughters in one go, he can't afford to pay the fine.

No, no, I can't think about it anymore, the more I think about it, the more scared I become!

Wang Zhu always felt that there was something wrong with Feng Che's words, but he couldn't think of what was wrong.

After blushing for a long time, Wang Zhu roared, "What kind of bullshit are you talking about? Everyone wants to have a son, is everyone wrong?"

Feng Che grinned, "Everyone is not as poor as you." Moreover, who said that everyone is like this, don't people in the city only give birth to a girl? ”

"They can't help it, besides, can we compare the countryside with the city?"

Speaking of this, Wang Zhu had words, and he said to Feng Che earnestly: "Maocai, it's not that my brother said you, in our countryside, if you don't have a son, you are out of a household, and you are looked down upon." There are people in the village who bully, and you don't have a helper. It's different when you have a son, there's a big guy standing behind you, and no one else dares to mess with you!"

"I think that as long as I have the ability, no one dares to bully without a son. ”

Feng Che replied proudly.

Wang Zhu: This is not nonsense, but the problem is that they are all ordinary people, and they rely on their sons to support the façade.

Neither of them convinced anyone, and they parted unhappily.

But what they said was passed out.

When the people in the village heard about it, especially after listening to Feng Che's words, they couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded: The family has no money, and they are not worthy of having a son?!

But think about it, since you are such a precious son, why do you have to give birth to him to be poor.

But the problem is that there is only one Liu Changshan in the entire Xiaoqinghe Village. Shouldn't anyone but him have a son?

When Liu Changshan heard this, he was very satisfied.

Sure enough, it was his brother-in-law, and what he said made people feel comfortable listening to it.

He Liu Changshan is capable, and he has laid a huge family business for his son, so he is the person who feels most sorry for his son.

It's a pity that he was born with weak sperm, and it is estimated that he only has one child in this life, Liu Song.

Otherwise, he will have to have a few more.

Anyway, he has money and the ability to make money, and how many sons can afford it!

Feng Che said this, and no one in the village was afraid that he had no son, because they didn't want to be pointed at by Feng Che and say, "You don't have money, you give birth to a son to cheat him".

Mrs. He is desperate, can't this work?

Obviously, if others are gossiped about, they will desperately give birth to a son, why can't they be here when they get to her family?

The old lady cried, made trouble, and pretended to be sick, but Feng Che and Anne served how they wanted, and they were scolded obediently, but they didn't let go.

The old lady could only watch her son and daughter-in-law treat their three daughters as treasures, eat delicious food, wear new clothes, and do everything better than other children.

Zhu Zhaodi, oh no, it was Zhu Mingli who had just turned six years old and was sent to the town to study by Feng Che.

Zhu Mingjiao was also sent to the town's kindergarten.

In these years, how can rural children go to kindergarten, aren't they all big and small, and they are scattered out like free-range, and they don't go to school until they are old enough to go to school.

However, the daughter of the Zhu family is more expensive than her son, which has caused a lot of discussion among the people in the village.

Feng Che did not continue to work as a carpenter, but began to develop in the direction of wood carving.

The master Zhu Daniu found for him is a traditional old artist, and he is a master of wood carving.

It's just that after the liberation, Huaguo advocated thrift and simplicity, and the old artist was also a keen sense of smell, no longer carving, but became a carpenter.

Because he was not bad at composition and good carpentry, he was recruited to work in the carpentry factory in the town.

Zhu Maocai was originally just an apprentice under this old artist, and there were several apprentices with him, and he was not a real disciple of the old artist.

After two or three years, he became an apprentice, and he only learned carpentry and simple carving.

Feng Che is not the original owner, he became an apprentice, and he did not break off his relationship with the old artist.

The old artist has no children and no daughters, only a wife, and the two depend on each other.

Feng Che is like the old man's own son, he goes over to see if he has nothing to do, and takes the child to give the old man a gift during the New Year's holidays.

The old couple had a headache and brain fever, and Feng Che and Anne ran back and forth.

Once the old artist fell his leg, Feng Che and his family took care of him in the hospital for half a month, whether it was a doctor, nurse or other patient's family, they all praised the old artist for his good fortune and having such a filial son and daughter-in-law.

People's hearts are full of flesh, and Feng Che is like Chicheng to him, and the old artist is also thinking about how to repay.

Coupled with Feng Che's good talent, the old artist finally took him under his door after observing Feng Che for two years and began to teach him carving.

Zhu Maocai's craftsmanship is already good, coupled with Feng Che's high control and strong spirit, he learns things extremely quickly, and in less than a year, he has learned the skills of old artists.

In the first work, Feng Che tried to carve a horse stepping on a swallow.

It happened that the year of the horse in the ninety-first year, there was a merchant in the provincial capital, and I heard that the famous wood carving master Xun Lao in S province had become a disciple, and he also carved a work about horses, so he rushed from the provincial capital and saw the handsome flying horse, and liked it very much.

immediately offered a sky-high price of 20,000 yuan and bought the horse stepping on the swallow.

It was only then that Mrs. He knew that the old carpenter, who was useless in her eyes, had such a great reputation and so many connections in the province.

And Feng Che relied on the relationship between Xun Lao and became a master of wood carving in the new era.

A work can easily be sold for tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands.

Mrs. He is proud and sad, her son is so capable, he earns more money in a year than others earn in a lifetime.

The key is that he doesn't look tired, just take a carving knife and serve for a month or two, and he can earn money calculated in tens of thousands.

But why didn't he want to give her a grandson?

Seeing that the family's house was built into a three-story small building, it was even more magnificent than Liu Changshan's two-story small western-style building.

When it comes to the richest man in Xiaoqinghe Village, the names of the village will also point directly to the Zhu family.

The three daughters of the Zhu family were raised like Miss Jiao in the city, white and pure, Sven Wen, where is there still the shadow of the yellow-haired girl back then.

It's Zhu Mingjiao, who also lost her inferiority complex and sensitivity when she was a child, the little girl is very cheerful and lively, and she studies well, and she jumped a level after going to elementary school, and she is in a class with her sister Zhu Mingli.

The two daughters, one first and one second, are better than all the boys in the class.

The youngest Zhu Mingfang is also five years old, and the little girl has been pampered by her parents and spoiled by her sister since she can remember, but she is not spoiled as a bear child, but is cute and cute.

Even Mrs. He, when she looks at her little granddaughter's little face similar to her son, she can't help but smile.

Everything is going well in the family, and there is only one son missing.

Mrs. He was so anxious that she couldn't sleep all night, and there was a layer of foam on her mouth.

Just when she was eager to die, An Xiaoni, who had not moved in her stomach for a long time, finally had news......
