Rebirth 1983: Starting From Taking Back the Family Property Chapter 552

Chapter 552 Honoring the Ancestor (2)

After Lu Jiaxin went to bed, Uncle Lu went to the seventh uncle's house. When he arrived, the seventh uncle was still talking with the village chief and several elders in the clan.

Seeing Uncle Lu, the seventh uncle felt that his backbone had arrived. Because Uncle Lu is in charge of Jiaxin's sponsorship of the family's children's education, he now has a great say in the village.

Uncle Lu sat down and asked, "How is your discussion going?"

The seventh uncle and the village chief thought they could agree, but they were worried that the villagers would be unwilling. After all, there was no such precedent. The villagers are also relatively short-sighted. They think that it is a bad rule for girls to divide the forest and harm the interests of men. Then if there are too many people applying for the foundation, there will not be enough space.

After hearing this, Uncle Lu talked about his family's affairs: "I have three sons, the eldest and the second are born to three sons, and the third is two sons. Do you think my family has built a house now (a cave dwelling)? So far? The house I live in now was built more than ten years ago. As for the future..."

After a deliberate pause, he looked at the people present and said, "I won't talk about Iemitsu's four children. Those who grew up in the city will not come back. The three of Iemitsu, Lushan now have a house and a shop. It can be considered that they have established a foothold in Sijiu City; Lu Yun and his wife help the second child run the noodle shop, and they will definitely stay in Sijiu City in the future; Lu Tao has a job and is unlikely to come back. The older one has moved in. Railway Bureau, even after finishing high school and not going to college, I would go to the city to find work.”

"None of my eight grandsons will need foundations to build houses in the village in the future. Similarly, children who have passed the exams will not be able to go back to the village to live in a cave. Currently, the family plan can only have two children per family, and those who are capable will go to work outside. The girl's livelihood will not be affected if she applies for a foundation.”

None of the eight grandsons of the Lu family will come back to build a house. This example is too convincing. Of course, the most important thing is the family planning he mentioned. If it happened casually like before, no amount of foundation would be enough. Now that the situation has changed, it will be easier to convince.

The seventh uncle said nothing.

The village chief agreed with Uncle Lu and said: "Uncle, now a family can only have two children at most. If the first child is a son, they can only have one. In the future, the population of the village will be smaller, and the foundation will not be so tight. The girls in the village can apply for the foundation. ”

Uncle Lu added: "The policy only allows for two children. If the two girls are not allowed to have more children, it is also good for them that the girl can apply for a foundation."

Uncle Seventh thought for a moment and said, "A family can only apply for a foundation once. As for the hilltops, will it be based on the head of the family just like the land is divided?"

Everyone thinks this method is feasible.

Lu Jiaxin woke up at dawn the next day. After washing, her aunt brought her breakfast, which was her favorite mutton dumplings. But this time it was served with cucumbers and pickles.

Lu Jiaxin took a bite of kimchi and was full of praise: "Auntie, your kimchi is so delicious. Where did you learn it?"

The eldest aunt smiled widely when she saw that she liked it. Although she is almost seventy, her teeth are still neat and tidy, perhaps due to good maintenance or genetics. The uncle, on the other hand, has lost most of his teeth and can no longer eat hard things.

The eldest aunt said cheerfully: "I learned it from Mrs. Wang next door. She makes kimchi very well. It took me a lot of effort to learn it. When your second sister-in-law comes back during the Chinese New Year, I will teach her how to make it. You all like to eat it. It will definitely be popular if sold in the store.”

Lu Jiaxin coaxed her and said, "Make sure the guests still want to eat after eating, and business will be better in the future."

After breakfast, the group went to visit the grave. The road up the mountain is quite rugged, but the branches and weeds on the roadside have been cleared away, and the gap has been open for some time. Uncle Lu said with a smile: "During the Qingming Festival, we went to visit the graves and asked the villagers to repair the road on both sides. I also planned to wait for the slack farming period and call on the villagers to pick stones to pave the road. This would count as a holiday. Even if it rains, I won't be afraid of slipping.”

Lu Jiaxin thinks the idea is good, but the villagers may not be willing to do it, but she doesn't criticize Uncle Lu. When people get old, they hope to have something to do and be respected by their children and grandchildren, so that they can have a sense of accomplishment.

We arrived in about half an hour's walk. In the past, Lu Jiaxin was responsible for visiting Mother Lu's grave. Now she is offering incense to the Lu family ancestors. With Uncle Lu here, she can just follow the arrangements.

Uncle Lu said in front of a grave: "Dad, this is Jiaxin, the daughter of the third child of the Red Army. This child has a lot of potential. She has donated money and materials to the country to help many children without fathers and mothers, and also sponsored children in the clan to study. . Dad, no one in the entire Feng County doesn't know about our old Lu family.”

The family characters in the middle of the next generation of men are based on the genealogical order, and the following characters are based on the four characters Guangzong Yaozu. But he never dreamed that the next generation would be honored not by his sons and nephews, but by Jia Xin.

It is also because Lu Hongjun has only one daughter, so the order of the family tree is also followed. At that time, Uncle Lu wanted to ask her to marry him, but Lu Hongjun didn't agree.

Lu Jiaxin didn't find it annoying to listen to his ramblings. This is the thinking of the older generation, hoping that their children and grandchildren can make the family prosperous and prosperous. The four children of the eldest brother are very motivated and will be successful in the future; the three brothers Lu Shan will live a good life in the future; Lu Cheng has entered the railway bureau, and Lu Hui is in high school. As long as they don't go astray, they will be fine in the future. As for the second room, she ignored it.

Because Lu Jiaxin had to go to school, she left without staying long after attending the incense. When going down the mountain, Uncle Lu said with some regret: "You have to leave tomorrow. You are in a hurry and haven't prepared anything. If you can go back two days later, you can worship your ancestors."

Mainly because Lu Jiaxin did not inform him in advance, otherwise he would have been prepared. This girl now likes to do things unexpectedly.

There is a strong preference for sons over daughters in the countryside. Like in her previous life, she could not go to worship her ancestors, even though she was an only daughter, so she was very repulsive to such activities.

In order not to spoil the fun, Lu Jiaxin made a random excuse: "Uncle, I am also back to do some business. I happen to be not far from here and will come back to visit you and your eldest aunt. Wait until next time. Next time I come back to visit you, I will definitely tell you in advance."

The school is not far from Lujiacun, it takes about ten minutes to walk there. The so-called school is actually just a few cave dwellings, one for each grade.

Lu Jiaxin walked in and found that the light was not good, but everything else was fine. It's just that the light is not good, and being in a place like this all year round is not good for your eyes.

“Is this the kind of environment in which children study?”

Uncle Lu nodded and said, "Yes! The year before last, he said that the superiors would allocate money to build the school, so I didn't tell you. But after waiting for two years, there was no news. I asked someone to inquire and they said that the county had no money and would not build the school. "

It was also because he got news that the county would allocate money to build a teaching building, so he didn't tell Lu Jiaxin. Otherwise, tell Jia Xin that with her temperament, she would definitely donate money to build a teaching building, and the children would already be studying in a spacious and bright classroom. So when he got the news, he was furious.
