Households relocated in the 1990s

Chapter 4 Jiangcun
Standing at the spacious front desk, An Songyu maintained her standard smile and took advantage of the fact that there were no customers to greet today's supervisor.

The foreman, Sister Xia, is in her thirties and is a very principled person.

Although An Songyu came to work on time, he was not late.

So she didn't say much.

After saying hello, An Songyu sat down in front of two computers.

She remembered it both in this hotel and in the hotel where she worked for the next ten or twenty years.

Her job at the front desk is to help customers with check-in and check-out procedures.

This is her advantage as a genuine hotel management student.

But it is precisely because I studied hotel management...

Soon, as it got closer to three o'clock in the afternoon, An Songyu was already too busy to have time to think about it.

At this time, An Jianping, who had already arrived in Jiangcun, knocked on the door of his younger brother.

Jiangcun is not a big village.

The entire village has only twenty-four households.

But it is divided into three surnames.

Among them, Jiang and An are both big surnames in the village.

The only family left is the Zhu family.

Strictly speaking, he was just a son-in-law of the Jiang family. With the permission of his father-in-law, he gave his youngest son his original surname.

Today, four generations live under the same roof.

But until the demolition, their family had never separated.

If we count the number of people, the Jiang family, who settled in Jiang Village earlier, actually has a larger population.

However, the An family split up early, and their family already occupied four households, naturally becoming the surname with the largest number of households in the entire Jiang Village.

Uncle An Jianmin is now a well-known capable man in the village.

An Jianping knocked for a long time but heard no response, only the barking of a dog, so he guessed that the couple might not be at home.

After thinking about it, An Jianping went to the small shop next door:

"Sixth Uncle, where are my younger brothers?"

An Shunkang, who was watching TV and watching the store at the same time, squinted his eyes and looked over when he heard this. It took him a while to see the person in front of him clearly.

He suddenly realized something and said, "It's Jianping? You're looking for Jianmin? He should be with the village party secretary!"

As he said this, he couldn't help but walked out of the store and asked:

"Jianping, I heard Jianmin said he's planning to renovate the old house for his family and your parents' house. What about you?"

"Of the two plots of land your family owns, the house on one of them doesn't even have a roof."

"In two years, the mud wall will probably collapse."

"The other piece is just for growing grass, so why did you divide that piece of land in the first place?"

An Jianping smiled somewhat awkwardly.

Before he could say anything, An Shunkang suddenly lowered his voice and asked:

"Jianping, your eldest brother said this morning that you seem to be planning to give up the homestead in the village?"

"Jianping, you can't be confused!"

"Your household registration has been moved out a long time ago, and your piece of residential land has been divided up for a long time without any complaints."

"The land your eldest son owns was originally allocated to you because you were able to influence the silk weaving factory and ensure that the village had a place to sell its silk cocoons every year."

"Otherwise, logically speaking, your eldest son has never been to the village for a single day, so he wouldn't be eligible for a housing plot."

"Look at the village nowadays. Every family has built a small two-story house."

"Your old house is even more dilapidated than your parents' house."

"In this day and age, where can you still see mud walls in a village like ours, so close to the city?"

An Shunkang's words were not an exaggeration at all.

Shuncheng not only boasts a distinct geographical advantage, being only a half-hour drive from the capital of Southern Province, but also boasts a vibrant and vibrant street scene.

Otherwise, it would not be a county or city district directly under the jurisdiction of the Southern Province.

Although Jiangcun is not located near the central streets of Shuncheng.

However, it is one of the best developed streets in Shuncheng besides the central street.

It is even separated from the central urban area by only a wide river.

Jiangcun is only half an hour away from Rongdi Street.

After the reform and opening up, the people of Jiangcun started growing vegetables and flowers, and later moved on to mulberry-based fish ponds.

It has developed into the current practice of picking fruits at farmers' homes, and it is now very lively and colorful.

Not only do every household in the village build new houses, but the oldest and shortest building is at least two stories high.

Like An Jianping's family, not only is the homestead empty, but there is also a piece of homestead with only a few earthen walls left...

The old man didn't directly do as those people surnamed Jiang in the village said, saying that they thought he was shameful, which was already very polite.

An Jianping knew the old man's good intentions and didn't say much.

After chatting with the old man for a few words, he saw that there was still no sound from An Jianmin's house, so he prepared to go directly to the village party secretary's house.

Walking through the village, An Jianping observed things with unusual care.

In general, Jiangcun's development is still very good.

Coming into the village, there are about ten households scattered on both sides of the road, almost forming a street in Jiangcun.

Most of the daily necessities can be met without leaving the village.

At the end of the street is the small shop where Uncle Liu was just now.

The family next to him is An Jianmin's family.

However, although the two families look like neighbors, they are not close to each other.

An Jianping's main business is a fruit shop, but he also has a large orchard in Jiangcun.

The entrance to the orchard is on the other side of his house.

So near An Jianmin's house, except for this sixth uncle who lives closest, the other houses are not far away.

An Jianping continued walking towards the village. Not far away, he came to one of his family’s two residential plots.

One of the pieces is right next to my parents and brothers.

His house was the closest to the village entrance. From his current perspective, the houses seemed to be arranged from low to high.

Of his house, all that remained were a few earthen walls hidden among shrubs and weeds taller than a man.

Next to his house is his parents' old brick courtyard.

Although there is only one layer, you can even easily see the time that has passed.

But compared with his family’s residential land, it doesn’t seem so shabby?
Next is the house built by the old family in the early years.

The earliest two-story building in the entire Jiang Village.

Behind it is the new house built by the fourth family just a few years ago.

It is one of the tallest buildings in the entire Jiang Village. It is a five-story building and is mainly used to serve his farm stay.

Behind his house is a large orchard, vegetable garden and fish pond.

This is the family fortune that their family has developed with great difficulty over the years.

After passing a few of their houses, we were not far from the village party secretary's house.

As a village named after the Jiang family, for a long time, there was no mention of the surname An among village cadres.

But over the years, the An surname has developed significantly better than the Jiang surname.

The first college student branch secretary was born among the Ans.

Before An Jianping could even reach the village party secretary's house, he saw two familiar figures not far away.
