Rebirth in 1958: Getting rich starts from Nanluoguxiang

"Baozhong, look how angry you made your mother? You are such an unfilial person, you even abandoned your parents and brothers for twenty kilograms of rice?"

"Brother, please have pity on me and let my sister-in-law let go..."

Qin Dabao stopped his motorcycle and listened to the sounds quietly. His chest felt blocked and he wanted to yell and curse.

Qin Qingfu also understood that the child was sick with a fever and had no money to see a doctor, so he came to his parents' door for help. His parents locked the door tightly, and the old couple hid in the house and dared not make a sound.

Baozhong cried and kowtowed, but no one paid any attention to him. He had no choice but to take his wife and children to beg his great-grandfather and great-grandmother for help. Dabao saved the child's life and gave him some food, because he didn't want the child to starve to death.

When Baozhong's parents heard about it, they immediately came to Baozhong's house under the pretext of visiting their grandson and tried to steal the food. This was really a way of bullying an honest man.

Dabao strode over and shouted, "Who dares to touch the food I gave you?"

The villagers who were watching were startled. They turned around and saw that it was Dabao. Dabao's face was ashen. They were so scared that they quickly made way for him.

The so-called class has always been divided in people's minds. This is the case with the villagers today. Before Dabao wore this outfit, in the minds of the villagers, he was just a city kid, no big deal.

Now when I see Dabao again, I can't help but feel a little bit of fear in my heart.

Dabao walked into the crowd and saw Baozhong and his wife kneeling on the ground. Baozhong's wife was tightly holding the flour bag in the hands of an old woman.

Next to the old woman stood a man with a sad face. He rolled up his sleeves and stared blankly at Dabao.

Behind him, squatted a young man of eighteen or nineteen years old.

Dabao recognized these people, but except for the man, he couldn't name the others.

It is obvious that this man is Baozhong's father Qin Daguo, and the old woman with a stern face should be Baozhong's mother Qin Something. As for the boy squatting, he is Baozhong's younger brother who is about to get married.

Seeing these three people using morality and filial piety to kidnap and oppress honest people, Qin Dabao became furious.

Qin Daguo came over with a bitter look on his face and said timidly: "Brother, look at this unfilial son. My parents are almost starving to death, and you are still single. He only thinks about his own family. His mother and I gave birth to him in vain. What a sin..."

The long sighs played out the moral kidnapping to the fullest extent.

A smile appeared on Dabao's face, which looked full of disdain.

"Did you give birth to him in vain?"

"Yes, those who are unfilial are born in vain."

"Did you ask for his opinion when you gave birth to him? Did you ask him if he was willing to be your son?"

"What? Bro, I don't understand."

"Just because you gave birth to him, does that mean he has to listen to you? Would you rather your wife and children starve to death than support you in marrying your son? Is that not giving birth in vain? Is that filial piety?"

"Ah, isn't that the point of having children? If not, why have children?"

Qin Dabao was speechless. Although his mind was full of profound truths, he couldn't say anything in front of this person.

What is the purpose of having children? In a broad sense, it is for the so-called continuation of life, but if you think about it more deeply, isn't it just for your own desires? Why do you say it so noble? Controlling another person's life is the most primitive and inferior desire of human beings.

Dabao turned around and glanced at the crowd, and found that almost everyone showed an expression of approval.

Dabao let out a long sigh, feeling suffocated. He didn't want to say another word. He snatched the grain bag from the old woman.

The old woman screamed: "What are you doing? Give it back to me..."

Qin Dabao sneered: "This is mine."

"No, it's not! You have already given us Baozhong, and he is our family's."

Dabao threw the food to Qin Qinggui and clapped his hands: "I don't want to give it to you now."

"Ah?" Dabao's cheating made Qin Daguo and the other two dumbfounded. Can they play like this?

Dabao lifted Baozhong up with one hand and said with a smile: "I have something to trouble you..."

Baozhong's eyes were filled with relief: "Uncle Bao, anything is fine."

"Your grandfather and your second grandmother have gone to work at the commune. Your second grandfather is also busy. Secretary Han of the commune needs to discuss something with him. In this case, there will be no one to take care of your great grandfather and great grandmother. I would like to trouble you and your wife to help your great grandfather and great grandmother cook three meals a day, eat with them, and make them happy. Can you do it?"

Before Baozhong could reply, Qin Daguo and his wife came up to him with flattering faces: "Brother, Dabao brother, can these children take good care of Master Shiqi? Let us do it."

Dabao said contemptuously: "You? Are you worthy? You even scheme against your own son. I don't feel safe letting you get close to my grandparents. They are too honest. I'm afraid you will sell them out one day..."

Qin Daguo's face turned pale and blue. He stamped his feet in hatred and left. He was so embarrassed today that he couldn't even raise his head in the village.

Before the old woman could say anything, Baozhong's younger brother, who was squatting, stood up, grabbed his mother, hesitated for a moment, bowed deeply to Dabao, and turned to leave.

Dabao called out, "What's your name, kid? How old are you?"

Baozhong's younger brother turned around, lowered his head, and whispered, "Uncle Bao, my name is Qin Baoguo, and I'm seventeen."

Dabao laughed. The boy was quite smart and had some backbone.

"Are you in such a hurry to get married?"

"I'm not anxious, my parents are. I don't want to force my brother, but I have no choice."

"I'll give you two choices. One is that there's conscription this year, and I'll send you to the army. The other is to stay at home and farm and get married. Choose one."

"I'm going to join the army..." Baoguo blurted out. He raised his head, his eyes full of hope, fearing that it would be in vain.

"Okay, then join the army. When the recruitment is completed, I will ask for a place for you."

Baoguo fell to his knees and shouted, "Thank you, Uncle Bao, thank you, Uncle Bao."

He was so dumbfounded, it was like a dream.

Dabao walked up to her and slowed down his tone: "Sister-in-law, they are all your flesh and blood. How can you bear to be partial to one or the other? The doctor at the health center said that if your grandson had been late for half an hour, he would have developed pneumonia and the child would have been in danger.

Sister-in-law, I'm scared to hear what the doctor said. If I hadn't been lucky enough to arrive, wouldn't the child have been thrown away? Since we managed to save the child, it means that the child is blessed. Tell me, if the disease was cured and then starved, would you and my big brother regret it? "

When Baoguo's mother heard this, she covered her face with her hands and burst into tears: "My dear brother, I really have no choice. I feel so sorry for my grandson."

Baozhong and his wife supported her on both sides, and they also shed tears.

Dabao took the rice bag from Qin Qinggui and stuffed it into Baozhong's arms.

"Alright, let's all understand each other and stop getting so excited. Come into the house quickly. I think I heard the child crying. Baozhong, don't forget to help me take care of your grandparents..."

Dabao rode a motorcycle and took Qin Qingfu and Qin Qinggui away. As soon as they left, the villagers surrounded them. They didn't expect things to end like this. Everyone was so jealous that they wanted to find someone to fight with.

"Aunt San, your family had a great quarrel. It even resulted in a soldier being born."

"Baozhong, you've made it this time. Even Uncle Dabao is helping you. You can walk around Qinjiagou with ease in the future."

"What's Qinjiagou? It will be changed into a production team soon."

"I heard that three villages are being merged into one big production team. Who do you think will be the team leader? It would be best if it were someone from Qinjiagou. If something good happens, it will definitely happen."

"Who else could it be? I, Qingrong, am the captain, and everyone else is just bullshit."

"Brother Qingrong is the team leader? Come on, I don't agree. If it weren't for Qingrong's protection, would our village have such a bad reputation?"

"Bullshit? What does this have to do with my uncle?"

Everyone was talking at once, but fortunately, no matter how fierce the argument was, they were all family members and generally wouldn't fight.

Suddenly, a villager sighed: "You guys are guessing nonsense. If it were you, I would say that Uncle Qingfu would definitely be the team leader. Didn't you hear what Dabao said? The commune secretary talked to Uncle Qingfu.

What are you talking about? Isn't it about becoming the captain? "

The villagers were silent, and after a while, someone spoke.

"I think it's good for Uncle Qingfu to be the team leader. At least when he's the team leader, Dabao won't ignore us. In the future, good things like joining the army or going to school will also be our children's turn... Besides, wasn't it Uncle Qingfu who instigated Dazhu and the others to go hunting in the mountains? When Dazhu and the others come back from hunting, they'll find a place to exchange food for us. That's it. Can Uncle Qingrong do it? Bullshit!"

As he said this, everyone agreed in unison. No one noticed that Qin Qingrong, wearing his clothes, was standing behind the crowd. His face was livid and he walked away angrily...
