After my aunt finished speaking, she realized that what she said didn't sound like a good thing, and she quickly explained, "What I mean is that it's not a big deal if you don't do well in the exam. You can still repeat the year. If it doesn't work out, there are other ways out. Anyway..."
Oh, it turns out that I am the one who caused the melon!
Ye Ke waved his hand casually. Seeing that his aunt looked extremely worried about the rumors, he quickly explained to her, "It was the day I came back from the college entrance examination. I was too tired..."
After hearing this, my aunt was furious: "Zhou Chunmei is so idle every day, isn't she? She keeps making up lies everywhere! I have to teach her a lesson today!"
After saying this, he immediately stood up, looking angry as if he was looking for someone to settle the score, picked up the wooden stick by the door and walked out.
Ye Ke quickly stopped her.
"Hey, aunt, no, it's not worth it if you get yourself hurt. Anyway, when the notice comes, everyone will know she's just talking nonsense."
Ye Ke helped his aunt walk into the house and changed the subject: "I came to ask about my uncle's contract for the barren mountain."
"Oh, you know all this?"
Hearing his uncle's surprised question from behind, Ye Ke turned around and saw, "Huh? There's also my younger uncle."
"Uncle! Uncle!"
Ye Ke looked at his two uncles who looked decades younger, and felt deeply moved.
Her grandmother's family has good genes, and all the children born to them are good-looking.
My uncle Ye Wenguo looks like my grandfather, with a loyal and resolute square face, which was arguably the most popular face of his generation.
My uncle Ye Wenbo looks like my grandmother, he is gentle and handsome, and looks like a pretty boy.
When Ye Ke was young, her parents had already started working in the south, and she and her sister Ye Rou were entrusted to their grandmother.
But grandma is old and has less energy, so the two of them actually spend more time at their uncle's house, playing with their cousins there until they grew up.
At her young age, she followed her cousins and called her uncle "Dad". Liu Mingjun was so angry that he was jealous.
"Uncle, when did you come back?" Ye Ke asked curiously.
Ye Ke respects her eldest uncle, but has a better relationship with her younger uncle. Her younger uncle is about the same age as them, only 8 years older than her sister and 4 years older than her cousins. He has always been the leader among their group of children.
"Your uncle happened to pass by my workplace after delivering the goods, so I stopped by to check it out."
My uncle currently works at the Ancheng Tax Bureau. Ye Wenhui often sighs that my uncle is more fortunate than her and has caught up with good times. It’s not jealousy, but pure admiration.
When my uncle was in school, his family's financial situation had improved, and the college entrance examination had just been resumed, so he was able to go to university smoothly and got a good job when he graduated.
Because she was good-looking, she was introduced to her boss's daughter, and she achieved success in both career and love.
Ye Ke sincerely felt that her uncle was the true chosen one and would have a smooth life.
"Uncle, my mother said you want to contract the barren mountain at the east end of the village?" Ye Ke stepped forward, and pulled her uncle into the house like a servile boy, serving him tea and water, busy as a whim.
"Yes, the village chief asked me a few days ago if I wanted to take over the business, but I always feel it's not cost-effective, so I'm still considering it."
Since the reform, Ye Wenguo has rented a large piece of land in Yejia Village to grow apples. Now that sales are getting better and better and customers are becoming more and more stable, Ye Wenguo is thinking about expanding the scale of planting.
However, the price of the barren hills at the east end of the village is indeed not low. Although his family can afford the money for contracting, the money for clearing the barren hills and buying seedlings to plant trees after contracting is not enough.
"I definitely can't handle it all by myself, so I'm thinking of looking for you as a partner."
Ye Wenguo thought about it and directly stated his plan. He actually had this idea when he went to pick up his younger brother today. He wanted to ask his brothers and sisters if they were willing to join.
He didn't really want to find an outsider to partner with him. If the partner had bad intentions or wanted to interfere, that would be a big trouble.
"That barren mountain east of the village?" Ye Wenbo thought for a moment and frowned. "Joining the group is fine, but there are still a lot of wild walnut trees on that mountain, right? It would take a lot of effort just to clear them out. I don't think it's worth it."
"Yeah, I also think it's not worth it. I'll ask the village chief later if the contract price can be lowered a bit. If not, I'll wait and see if there's other land available."
Ye Ke listened with a blank expression.
Very good, it turns out that the reason why he didn’t get the contract in his previous life was because he failed to bargain for a good price. Ye Ke was heartbroken!
No, my destiny is in my own hands!
Ye Ke stood up and said, "I think it's a good deal! Let's just rent it!"
The two uncles looked strange. Has this child become stupid because of reading too much?
What if you have a mine at home? You don’t even bargain?!
Ye Ke didn't care, he just looked at his two uncles and giggled: "I have a little news..."
"What gossip?" Ye Wenguo looked bewildered. Did his niece look so silly today? Was she really upset because she didn't do well on the exam?
Ye Ke didn't say anything else. He turned around and ran out to close the gate. He then pulled his aunt into the house and closed the door behind him.
After a series of actions, the dog acted sneaky, like a thief.
"My deskmate went to dinner with his dad, and overheard his dad's boss accidentally let something slip at the table when he was drunk." Ye Ke paused, his bright eyes swept over the three of them, and he said in a huff, "Our village is going to be demolished!"
The three of them couldn't help but hold their breath, and their eyes gradually widened!
"What? Our village..." My aunt exclaimed, then reacted in time and whispered, "Our village is going to be demolished?"
Ye Ke looked at his aunt and nodded firmly.
My uncle was surprised for a moment, but then he felt it was unreasonable: "Such important news is leaked just like that?"
Ye Ke thought about it and continued, "Yes, that leader is actually the uncle of his uncle's nephew. There were no outsiders at the table, so he accidentally let it slip."
My uncle nodded, a little dazed, "Indeed, it's hard to get into these units without some kind of family connection."
Ouch! Hey, my uncle, is this the point?
"Our village is so remote, why would they demolish it?" My uncle frowned, still a little bit unconvinced: "There's Hegou Village in front, and so many other villages close to the city ahead of it, but they didn't demolish them, so why are they demolishing our village?"
Ye Ke continued to make up a story: "Hegou Village should also be demolished. My deskmate said that the leader was drunk and his speech was slurred. He vaguely heard our village and a village with a ditch."
It was made up but not completely. In the previous life, a total of four villages were demolished in this area.
Their village and Yong'an Village are small villages and were demolished relatively quickly, while Hegou Village and Heba Village are large villages with a large population. There was a heated debate over the demolition compensation, which gave the demolition office a headache.
The June sun was hot and dazzling, shining into the house through the windowsill, making the four people in the room feel hot inside.
The four of them looked at each other, and finally couldn't help but burst out laughing!
"Oh, this, this, how can such a good thing happen?" My aunt lowered her voice, grinning from ear to ear: "If we can rent that barren mountain, we will be rich!"
She thought this news was too explosive, even more explosive than the village scoundrel knocking on Widow Hu's door in the middle of the night!
Ye Ke didn't think she was exaggerating and quickly agreed, "That's right, aunt! We're going to be rich!"
"Oh my God!" My uncle was excited but didn't dare to speak too loudly. He asked in a low voice, like a thief: "When will it be demolished? Can we build more houses?"
Ye Ke made up a story again and again: "Yes, my deskmate said that a notice will be sent out next month." But the building must be completed before the news comes out. In the previous life, many people built houses after the demolition news was released.
But how could the demolition office be fooled so easily? When they came to the village to inform the residents that day, they secretly recorded the square footage of each household's house and ignored any subsequent additions.
"Hurry up, we have to order bricks and tiles. It will take at least half a month to build the house. If we don't hurry up, we will be late." My aunt said as she rushed out.
Seeing this, Ye Ke quickly stopped her and said, "Aunt, I know you are anxious, but please don't be anxious."
