Chapter 296: Old Fatty’s Situation
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Huang Ling Village.
It was a very barren village.
The degree of backwardness could be said to be a little out of place with the current Jin Hai City.
Jin Hai City’s economy was developing well.
However, the so-called well-developed Jin Hai City and the surrounding Huang Ling Village were an exception.
Firstly, it was because the mountain road was rugged and it was very troublesome for vehicles to enter.
If Xu Wenping hadn’t been driving an off-road vehicle with a very high territory today, it would have been even more troublesome to enter.
Another point was that the people in the village were relatively backward in their thinking.
Because the village was relatively isolated, the people did not care much about the absorption of culture.
This had led to the current situation.
If people didn’t learn, their thinking would naturally fall behind, causing their thinking to be less avant-garde.
The people of Huang Ling Village were backward in their thinking.
Of course, not all villagers were like this.
At least, some people were not like that.
However, for a young man to live in such a village, his mind and his background might have some unknown feelings, right?
The car stopped at the village entrance.
“Let’s get out of the car. The roads in the village are very narrow.”
“Alright.”
The two young men agreed and got out of the car first.
Xu Wenping parked the car by the side and got out of the car himself.
The three of them walked into the village.
The village felt a little lifeless.
After the three of them walked in, they each had a different feeling in their hearts.
The village wasn’t big, but it wasn’t small either.
There were yellow mud roads on both sides and a cement road about two meters in the middle, but it was not well paved.
The three of them walked on the cement road, making a cracking sound that seemed a little harsh.
There was a courtyard about a hundred meters away from the left and right.
The courtyard looked tidy, but the old buildings could be traced back to the fifties or sixties.
In other words, the houses here were probably 80 to 90 years old.
The house was about to become an antique, especially since it was built with yellow mud. Its sturdiness was definitely limited.
He did not know how they survived the winter.
Xu Wenping frowned, let alone the two young men.
After walking through more than ten courtyards, he didn’t see anyone in the courtyards, nor did he hear much noise.
In the distant courtyard, a few dog barks could be heard.
However, there was no one in the nearby courtyard.
The three of them walked on the small path of the village, feeling as if they were walking in an uninhabited village.
“Brother Ping, why does this village feel so eerie?”
“That’s right! 1 felt a chill run down my spine. Could this be a ghost village?”
Yang Feng and Chen Guang looked around carefully.
They felt a little scared.
“Don’t talk nonsense. It’s just that there are fewer people here. Moreover, the young and strong have all gone out to work or live outside.”
Xu Wenping smiled and looked around.
Suddenly, he saw a figure busying himself in a courtyard not far away.
“Let’s go over there.”
Xu Wenping pointed at the courtyard not far away and took the lead to walk over.
Seeing that he was walking steadily and not worried at all, Yang Feng and the other two dispelled many of their concerns.
Soon, the three of them arrived at the entrance of the courtyard.
Xu Wenping stood outside the fenced courtyard and looked inside.
There was a slightly fat boy in the courtyard. He was making some firewood and seemed to be having a hard time.
Because he was a little fat, his movements were naturally a little slow.
“Look at you. You didn’t work hard at the company and got fired. You useless thing.”
A middle-aged woman’s voice came from inside the room, and it sounded like she was cursing.
“Look at you, wasting that fare is simply embarrassing. I really don’t know what’s the use of you living.”
The woman’s curses were very unpleasant to hear. Then, her curses gushed out like a tidal wave.
Hearing her cursing, Xu Wenping couldn’t help but frown.
Beside him, Yang Feng and Chen Guang were also frowning deeply.
“Old Fatty! Old Fatty’s home is actually here?”
Yang Feng widened his eyes in disbelief.
“That’s right! It’s unbelievable that Old Fatty’s house is here.”
“Who is that woman? What terrible scolding.”
“His mother?”
“Why doesn’t it feel like it?”
Yang Feng and Chen Guang began to whisper. Xu Wenping stood outside the small courtyard, but his gaze was fixed on Old Fatty who was cleaning up the firewood pile.
The boy looked very strong. Although his movements were a little slow, he was not clumsy.
After moving it a few times, sweat was already dripping down.
He turned a deaf ear to the curses in the room, as if they were not directed at him.
The woman in the room seemed to be tired of scolding. She panted a few times and then stopped scolding.
However, from time to time, the sound of knocking could be heard in the room. It was obvious that the woman was still angry.
Not long after, a man’s voice sounded, saying, “Alright! That’s enough. You’ve scolded enough. Don’t break things, okay?”
“I’m angry, but I’m happy!”
The woman was still complaining in the room. She said loudly, “Why did he come back? Doesn’t he know that this family is so poor? It’s really useless to come back and eat without doing anything.”
The people in the house were still grumbling, but Old Fatty was still working outside.
He lowered his head to work and did not look up at the outside of the courtyard.
However, the three people outside had heard and seen everything that had happened.
Xu Wenping turned around and looked at the two boys beside him.
“Brother Ping, shall we go in now?”
At this moment, Yang Feng couldn’t help but say to Xu Wenping.
“Yes! Brother Ping, let’s go in now. We can’t let Old Fatty continue like this. This is too depressing.”
Chen Guang couldn’t help but ask Xu Wenping.
“It’s up to you. I’ve said it before. I’m only bringing you here to take a look.”
“But…”
Hearing Xu Wenping’s words, Yang Feng was a little uncertain and said, “But… Brother Ping, 1 hope he can return to the company. Is that possible?”
“I don’t know if 1 can go back to the company.”
Xu Wenping shook his head and said with a smile, “However, I still lack someone by my side. If someone gives me a recommendation, 1 might agree.”
When he said that, his smile was very gentle.
The two of them understood what Xu Wenping meant.
They were overjoyed. They looked at each other, then pushed open the door of the small courtyard without saying anything and walked in..
