Chapter 278 Wait Until I Die.
He cried very suppressedly, holding his fist tightly in his mouth for fear of making any sound.
The body was tense and huddled together, motionless.
He had cried since the day his grandparents passed away, and for several days after the funeral, he did not shed a single tear.
Xiao Shitou actually heard that many villagers pointed at him, saying that he had a cold nature and didn't even cry when his own grandparents died.
As soon as his grandparents died, the relatives who had previously avoided his family jumped out and said that they would give them his old house and foundation, otherwise they would not care about his little brat.
Xiao Shitou watched with cold eyes as they fought over the foundation of their home and the house without saying a word.
When one of them won the battle, he sneered. Even for a seven-year-old child, the smile that was inappropriate for his age was a bit scary. "You want my house and foundation, just wait until I die."
With that said, he ignored the dark expressions on those people's faces and left directly.
Xiao Shitou was lucky that there were many people, otherwise these relatives would probably jump up and beat him in anger.
It's just that with so many people watching, they still have to be considerate no matter how shameless they are.
However, many people also criticized him, saying that he was worthy of having a mother but not a mother. He didn't know any manners and dared to talk back to his elders.
There were also many people who thought they were doing it for his own good and advised, "Little Shitou, my aunt is also doing this for your own good. How old are you this year? How can you do it without an adult at home? You can't keep this house by yourself. Why not give the house to one of your relatives and let them take care of you for a few years. When you grow up and earn more money, wouldn't it be enough to buy a new homestead and build a house? "
The aunt said it simply, but in fact the scratches on her face were still bloody. They were scratches from a fight with the person next door yesterday.
The reason for the fight was simple. Others occupied a little more of her family's private land when they were growing vegetables, so the two families fought over this little land.
No one is allowed to do anything.
This is how it is in the countryside. For a little land or a few trees, you will not recognize your relatives.
She fought with others for a little bit of land, but now she pretends to be generous and comes to persuade Xiao Shitou to give her family's homestead land and old house to others. What's the point?
Xiao Shitou laughed angrily, glanced at the person coldly, and said directly, "We'll talk about it after I die."
After saying that, he ignored everyone and left.
The aunt's face turned livid with anger, "This kid! It's so strange that he has to be liked!"
He cursed and left.
Later, those so-called relatives were waiting for him to come to ask for help, and then they would naturally get the homestead into their own hands.
After all, in the countryside, a seven-year-old baby still wants to live alone and is not afraid of being bullied to death.
If Xiao Shitou could come to their door and beg them to kowtow a few more times, they would be able to give him food despite all the difficulties.
Unfortunately, they had good intentions. Who would have thought that just after the funeral, Yun Qinghuan invited the village chief over, and in front of the village chief, he notarized the homestead of Xiao Shitou's grandparents and the family's property. , left everything to Xiao Shitou, and then told the village chief about how their family would take care of Xiao Shitou in the future.
Whether it is Yun Qinghuan or Bai Naihan, they are both persons of status now, and what they say will be seriously considered by the village chief.
Besides, he already had a headache about who to hand over to raise the little stone.
Xiao Shitou is only seven years old. Even if he wants to live on his own, the village will not agree. They are afraid that something will happen to him, so they must find someone to support him.
But others will make all kinds of unreasonable demands when raising him, and they may not necessarily be kind to Xiao Shitou. If he decides later and Xiao Shitou does not have a good life, he will still have to step in to solve the problem, which will also affect his village chief. of prestige.
Just as he was having a headache, Yun Qinghuan came over and said that he wanted to raise Xiao Shitou. He also said that Xiao Shitou's grandparents had taken care of him before they died. Naturally, he was willing to do so.
What are the conditions of the Bai family? Everyone in the village knew that there was no shortage of food or drink. If the little stone went to their house, it would be a blessing.
He agreed instantly, fearing that Yun Qinghuan would regret it if he was delayed for a second.
After the village chief made the decision, he continued to speak in official terms, "Yun Zhiqing is really a righteous person. He helped the village solve a big problem. Just take good care of Xiao Shitou. If you have any problems in the future, you can come to me. I am sure the village can help." help!"
The corners of Yun Qinghuan's lips twitched, and she was speechless when she saw the expression on the village chief's face as if he was throwing a big burden.
He also responded politely.
But there shouldn’t be any need to find the village chief later.
People were just talking about it, but she wasn't stupid enough to take it seriously.
And when those so-called relatives of Xiao Shitou heard what the village chief said, they immediately jumped out.
"Village Chief, this is against the rules. Although Deputy Director Bai is also from Baijia Village and has the same surname as us, his family has nothing to do with Xiao Shitou! With uncles and uncles like us here, how can we get outsiders? Take care of Little Stone?"
Unfortunately, no matter how dissatisfied they were, the village chief blocked them away with just one word.
"What? Who wants to adopt Little Shitou? Let me take a look. The adopter can support Little Shitou to study, at least until he graduates from high school. If I find out that he has not provided for the child to go to high school, nor has he allowed the child to grow up. If you are over 1.7 meters tall, I will directly deduct work points.”
In this era, people generally do not eat well, and if they can eat well, they have a good living standard. Therefore, they are not very tall, generally around 1.7 meters, and some men are only over 1.6 meters.
As for the rural kids going to high school, the cost is not small. They are reluctant to even let their own kids go to high school, let alone support an orphan who has no parents and has nothing to do with them to go to high school?
I am afraid they are just dreaming.
Instantly, they looked at each other and kept silent.
The village chief saw that he had frightened these people, and walked away with satisfaction, stroking his beard.
Then, Xiao Shitou officially lived in the Bai family.
Originally, the village chief wanted to transfer Xiao Shitou's household registration, but Yun Qinghuan saw Xiao Shitou staring at his old household registration book in a daze, knowing that the child did not want to move, he directly refused.
It can be regarded as leaving some thoughts for the child.
When he arrived at the Bai family, Xiao Shitou slept on the warm big bed. He originally wanted to take the hard quilt that he had covered himself with and did not keep warm, but Yun Qinghuan did not let him, and directly made a new one for him.
Little Shitou still remembers his aunt's warm palm touching his head, and her soft voice, "Aunt didn't let you sleep with An'an, because I was afraid that this boy would not sleep well. It would be easy to get cold if you two covered with one quilt, so you can sleep more comfortably."
"It's not too cold now, so I'll ask someone to make you a thin quilt to cover you first. When it gets colder, you can make another quilt to cover this quilt."
"From now on, you can treat this place as your own home."
