Chapter 425: Chapter 425: A Great Marvel
Perhaps it was because he’d done too many wrongs, so sitting here was indeed retribution!
After a few seconds of silence, Li Chengming heavily said, "Shao Hui, give her the house. After what happened, even if she doesn’t hate me, she will never forgive me in this lifetime. The three of us can’t possibly live together in one house anymore, then the family ties will break, and I’ll just pretend I don’t have this daughter..."
Shao Hui looked at Li Chengming, her lips pressed tightly together and said nothing.
Giving money to Li Bo was already unbearable for her, let alone her family and the Li family giving money to Li Bo secretly, which she just found out about. She even argued with them about it, but ended up being scolded by her family.
She hated Li Bo to the point she wished she were dead. How could she possibly spend a penny on her, not to mention giving her the house?
Don’t think that houses were worthless in those days. Houses were even scarcer due to infrastructure reasons, with some families of dozens living in mere forty square meters.
Relatively speaking, their house was already considered quite large, a real rarity here.
If it weren’t for Li Chengming, they wouldn’t have gotten this house, and later they even bought it outright, owning it completely.
How could she resign herself to giving the house to Li Bo?
It was meant for their son.
She had even planned it all out, when her son grew up, she wanted to renovate the house nicely, just like those affluent families.
Thinking this, Shao Hui’s expression showed it all.
Li Chengming sighed and said softly, "Once the house is given away, I agree to sever the father-daughter relationship. Let’s handle this matter this way. You, maybe you don’t actually hope for me to go out, do you?"
At the end, Li Chengming’s emotions were clearly upset. Shao Hui quickly stood up and hastily explained, "Brother Chengming, you can’t misunderstand me like this. Who wouldn’t want you to get out? But I won’t allow it."
"Then just do as I say. I can’t stay here any longer; staying any further will completely ruin me."
Shao Hui gritted her teeth; today was just her last struggle, so she nodded, finding it very hard to say, "Okay, I’ll take care of it when I get back."
When transferring the house to Li Bo, the student council and the school teachers were all present and completed the procedures as quickly as possible.
The reason for the rush was because the matter had a huge impact.
Li Bo and Li Chengming were handled as special cases.
And thus, Li Chengming finally got out.
He also severed the father-daughter relationship with Li Bo forever, meaning neither of them had any obligations to each other anymore, and when Li Chengming became old and immobile, Li Bo had no duty to support him.
This was indeed a major oddity, because in those days, severing father-daughter relationships was extremely rare, almost unheard of.
Thus, they wanted to keep this matter low-key, but those who needed to know already knew. Still, this was for the best, who knows what the future holds, and one day Shao Hui and Li Chengming might use this so-called father-daughter relationship to pressure Li Bo, which would be disgusting.
Originally, Li Bo wanted to sell the house, but then she thought, now that she has no relationship with Li Chengming and they have separate household registrations, hers alone,
the house belonged to her.
Whether she could keep it or not depended on herself.
Shao Hui was unwilling and resentful in her heart, but she had no choice since it was she who had carried out these actions. If Li Chengming were to retaliate, Li Bo would not let her off.
She would rather have her stay inside forever, no different than her father in that aspect.
Moreover, what’s most important, if Li Chengming couldn’t come out, could she make Xiao Bao sever the father-son relationship? If she really did that, Li Chengming wouldn’t let her off.
So, the relationship couldn’t be severed, no stigma could be attached.
Thus, after considering and being persuaded by her family, Shao Hui resentfully moved out of the house.
Meanwhile, Li Bo was still in the hospital recovering, and the funds she had were enough to cover the subsequent medical expenses. Li Bo didn’t want the school to worry too much, as it would make her feel very bad when she returned to school.
Too many favors to repay.
The only way she could repay everyone was to take good care of her body, strive to get back to school as soon as possible, study hard, and repay society after graduation.
That was the only thing she could do.
...
The nearest neighbor of Xichuan, Qinglong Village in Gelle State.
The land here was very barren, the most barren in Gelle State.
It was deemed the least suitable place for human habitation.
Like the northern part of Xichuan, the spring and autumn seasons were always filled with yellow sand.
There were even more sandstorms wreaking havoc.
Yet tens of thousands of people still lived here.
And Qinglong Village was just a small part of those tens of thousands.
Despite its impressive name, Qinglong Village was the poorest village in the Pingba District.
People had little land per capita here. In recent years, the only green grassland had also been covered by sand. Those who could find a way out did, and those who couldn’t endured the hard years here.
At the east end of the village, Su Laoqi had a relative in Xiaxi Commune in Xichuan, who had a good relationship with Wang Laogen, the manager of Tenghai Agricultural Base.
The agricultural base was short of people, so he left the village for Xiaxi Commune during the spring plowing.
Although it had not been much better than Gelle State before, in these three years, Xiaxi Commune’s greening efforts had been the best in the county.
Their living environment was quietly changing.
And the agricultural base was the most prosperous place for agriculture and side businesses in the entire Xichuan.
The improved land was planted with high-yielding corn and valuable thousand silk hemp, the commune covered it with greenhouses and then let the members contract them.
The Barley Grassland also began to plan grazing for cattle and sheep.
Mr. Qian went out to deal with the wool processing plant, the deputy head of the commune and the city cadres invited agricultural experts to Xiaxi Commune to prepare for mushroom cultivation. Even entering the winter, Xiaxi Commune was still tense and busy.
It had been almost a year since Su Laoqi had been home, so he asked for leave from Wang Laogen and returned home.
The villagers all gathered at the entrance of Su Family’s house.
They wore thin clothes, their ears red with cold, their clothes ragged and their faces aged, all staring at the radiant Su Laoqi.
People dared not speak to Su Laoqi.
They looked at him incredulously, dressed in a new cotton jacket, new leather shoes, and a new hat.
In the past, in winter, Su Laoqi couldn’t even afford a pair of cotton shoes.
Su Laoqi warmly invited everyone in to sit, offering sugar cubes and millet cakes for the elderly and children to eat.
Because in this past nearly one year, they had taken good care of his family.
But at the same time, their feelings were mixed, both places being barren lands. When could Qinglong Village see a change?
They truly hoped that Qiao Qingyu’s agricultural base could extend to their area.
