Rebirth 2004: I can make money by writing.
Chapter 192 Family Affairs
After Hao Jianjun learned about the situation, he immediately called the police, thinking that the cow might not have been taken far away.
However, if the thief commits the crime by car, the situation becomes more difficult.
But this situation is generally rare, as cattle thieves usually have no money.
However, if someone really steals cattle by car, it must be a gang crime, and they are repeat offenders.
Hao Jianjun was somewhat famous in the town, and he felt quite embarrassed when the villagers' cows were stolen.
I said goodbye to my family, then took my car keys and flashlight and went out. I had to go and see for myself and comfort the family whose cattle had been stolen.
In recent years, cattle theft has become common in rural areas.
As for stealing pigs, only a fool would do that. Pigs are not as valuable as cows, and the pig pens are often next to the owner's house.
Moreover, once the pigs are disturbed, they will bark non-stop, making it difficult to deal with them.
In contrast, cows are docile in nature and will remain silent even when led by the nose, making them easier targets for thieves.
"Fortunately, we have a wall around our new home, otherwise those thieves would be able to come in and out at will and steal things from the house." Liu Fengqing sat on the sofa and muttered.
"It is indeed safer to have a wall. There was a case of electric bike theft in our village a while ago." said Hao Qiang's grandmother who was sitting next to Liu Fengqing.
Hao Qiang's grandmother is 66 years old this year. She is a famous midwife in the town. Whenever a family has a baby, they will ask her for help. She will stay for several days and eat and drink well with the pregnant women, so she eats better.
I have to deliver babies several times a month, and the red envelopes I get are pretty good.
However, Hao Qiang's grandfather was frail and sickly, and often needed to take tonics. The family's financial situation had always been tight, and in a few years, they were almost on the verge of becoming a five-guarantee household.
Hao Qiang's maternal grandfather's home is in Shangmao Village of this town, about 12 kilometers away from Hao Qiang's home. There are many mountains and little land there. The arable land is two or three kilometers away from home, making it very inconvenient to grow crops and life is difficult.
The rice fields are closer to home, but the per capita area is smaller, and additional rice needs to be purchased to make a living.
The two or three acres of land at the foot of the mountain have poor soil and are full of sand and gravel, so only corn can be grown. If you want to grow sugarcane, it is very difficult to harvest it. Even if you manage to grow it, you cannot use a truck to pull the sugarcane out of the village, and it is equally inconvenient to use an ox cart.
The poor harvest and the distance from home made it too troublesome, so the locals simply gave up farming and only grew rice to have enough to eat.
Hao Qiang has an uncle who is three years younger than his mother. When he was young, his uncle worked as a kitchen waiter in Yuecheng. He is an honest and kind person, but he just likes to eat. He has no ambition and is afraid of hardship, otherwise he would not have worked as a waiter. If he had learned to be a chef, his salary would have been higher.
In recent years, my uncle has been staying at home to take care of my elderly and frail grandfather, making a living by growing rice and doing odd jobs, with a meager income.
More than ten years ago, my aunt ran away from home due to poverty, leaving behind a son.
A sick elderly person will indeed be a burden to the entire family.
Hao Qiang's cousin is Liu Daji, who is in the third year of junior high school in the second half of the year. His grades are not good and he plans to go out to work after graduation.
Tonight, Hao Qiang's grandparents, uncle and cousin have not returned home yet. They are sitting on the sofa watching TV and chatting.
There are many guest rooms in the villa, enough for them to stay for one or two nights.
Hao Qiang and Han Qingying sat at the counter, drinking coffee and chatting about family matters.
After a while, Hao Qiang came to the sofa and talked to his grandmother's family about his cousin Liu Daji: "After Daji finishes junior high school, he should continue to study in high school."
When Liu Daji heard that he had to continue studying, he was not very happy: "Cousin, my grades are not good. I want to work for you after I graduate from junior high school. Is that okay?"
"no!"
Hao Qiang refused directly and said arrogantly, "After finishing junior high school, if your grades are not good, you can repeat a year and then go to high school. I don't expect you to get into university. Just go to any college and learn some skills. You don't have to worry about the tuition."
In his previous life, his cousin went to Yuecheng to work after graduating from junior high school. He worked at a water platform. Like his uncle, he was afraid of hard work and didn't want to be a chef. He also liked smoking and drinking.
Although Hao Qiang didn't do well in his previous life, he was still ambitious. However, due to various reasons, he still didn't make any money.
Although his cousin doesn't make much money, he is very filial and sends most of his wages to his elderly parents for medical treatment. In this respect, Hao Qiang cannot compare with him.
If it weren't for this, Hao Qiang wouldn't bother to persuade his cousin to study and would just let him fend for himself.
As for other affairs of his grandfather's family, they were all handled by Hao Qiang's mother, and he himself did not interfere.
Over the past year, my mother has frequently taken my grandfather to the hospital for treatment, but his condition has not improved much and there is no cure. This is simply his physical condition, and he is already 68 years old.
One thing is very strange. My grandfather lived to be 78 years old in his previous life. I wonder if he can live a few more years in this life.
Liu Daji looked worried: "But my grades are really bad. I'm not good at studying."
"If you don't listen to me, don't expect me to help you in the future. Do whatever you want and find a job yourself." Hao Qiang said bluntly. He now has the ability to change his cousin's fate, and it would be best for him to study more.
Hao Qiang did not have high expectations for his cousin to study hard. He just hoped that his cousin could stay on campus for a longer time to temper his character, change his mindset, and increase his cultural knowledge.
But if his cousin still stubbornly refuses to listen to advice, then he can only stop interfering in his discipline.
Hao Qiang only has this one uncle, and the relationship between the two families is very harmonious. If he is able to help, he will naturally do his best.
However, he does not agree with the practice of simply providing financial support. If the other party cannot control the money, it will harm them instead.
Just like his cousin, his abilities in all aspects have improved after he got involved in purchasing food.
Hao Qiang hopes that everyone in his family will undergo a transformation, rather than just making money himself and then using the money to support them.
If we provide indiscriminate funding, these people will become blood-sucking parasites over time.
"Daji is really not very good at studying." The uncle said with a smile while smoking. He felt it was quite interesting to see his son being scolded by his nephew.
He knew he was incompetent and his son didn't listen to him, so it was useless to persuade him.
"Uncle, would you consider marrying another wife?
Anyway, you are only 40 years old now, still young.
"Let's have another son. The old one is a waste. He doesn't listen to us and is too rebellious." Hao Qiang turned to his uncle and said.
"Yeah, I agree too." Liu Fengqing agreed and turned to his younger brother, "Brother, why don't you consider it? You don't have to worry about the betrothal gifts or anything like that."
"Let's talk about this later." My uncle didn't expect the subject to change and actually talk about himself. He shouldn't have interrupted just now.
But when it comes to the matter of getting married again, he still smiled a little embarrassedly.
In fact, he really wanted to do it, but he had no money and had to give up.
Liu Daji, who was chewing melon seeds with his head down, realized that he could not escape his cousin's arrangement, so it seemed that he had no choice but to continue studying.
However, he was troubled when he thought of those troublesome textbooks.
If his father really finds him a stepmother and he still doesn't listen to his cousin, then he will have to fend for himself.
Now, my cousin is the chairman of the company and the person in charge of the family. Which relative dares not listen to him?
After chatting with his family for a while, Hao Qiang went for a walk in the yard with Han Qingying, and then returned to the master bedroom on the third floor together.
He prefers the large bedroom on the third floor, which has a large balcony outside and is convenient for viewing the countryside.
