"Xiao Chen, how are you, does it hurt? Grandma's hands are too heavy. Hu Yandie rummaged through the cabinet and found a little safflower oil, there was no cotton swab, so she could only pour it on her hand and gently wipe it for Hu Mingchen.

"Grandma has always been so ruthless, she doesn't help and beats her brother, I don't like her. Hu Yujiao stood next to her and said sadly.

"It's okay, I'm not in pain, it'll be fine in a day or two, don't blame her, speaking of which, I have to thank her for the old man." It is impossible for Hu Mingchen to really not have pain on his face, but he doesn't want his sister and sister's young hearts to leave a factor of resentment.

Anyway, it's grandma after all, and that's not going to change anyway.

"Thank her, why do you want to thank her for beating you? Hu Yandie pouted.

"It's very simple, if she hadn't hit me twice, the thirty-six yuan would really not be easy to get. Hu Mingchen patted his purse containing the thirty-six yuan, and forced a smile to say.

"But...... For thirty-six yuan, your face is swollen, the corners of your mouth are cracked, and grandma didn't beat you to make people give you money. Wiping the wound on Hu Mingchen's face, Hu Yandie was still distressed.

"If you don't get the money, you're in vain. Hu Yujiao said.

"Hehe, didn't you get it, with the example of the Luo family in front, and others come to worship the god tree later, we can still collect money. Hu Mingchen endured the pain and grinned.

"Wow, brother, are you still going to take money from other people? Hu Yujiao was surprised.

"What's that, if you can still receive the money, why not fight again. "Hu Mingchen is now like a villain who has fallen into the eyes of money, and he will do anything for money.

"Don't think like that anymore, can't I give you the rest of the money, don't make up your mind again. This time you completely offended your grandmother, and ...... If Mom and Dad come home and hear that you rely on the sacred tree to collect money, maybe you will have to take a beating. You have thirty-six yuan now, and I'll give you another forty yuan, it should be about the same, right?" Hu Yandie said hurriedly.

"Enough, enough, sister, you are so good, don't worry, I will earn money, as soon as I earn money, I will return your money to you as soon as possible." Hu Yandie's promise and support made Hu Mingchen very happy, and his heart could finally land.

Seriously, if Hu Yandie continues to disagree, Hu Mingchen can only stop others from worshipping the tree again.

"That's not my and Xiaojiao's money, it's my mother who left us three as living expenses, and there were more than a dozen yuan in it that belonged to you. I don't expect you to pay it back, as long as you don't make any more trouble, the few dollars left should barely be enough for us to last for a while. Hu Yandie handed forty yuan to Hu Mingchen, pinched the remaining few yuan, and said.

As an elder sister, Hu Yandie also had to leave a way out, so she didn't give Hu Mingchen everything that was left. It is said that she believes that Hu Mingchen will really make money, it is better to say that she spent forty yuan to buy Hu Mingchen and stop making trouble and being beaten.

Hu Yandie usually complains about Hu Mingchen, but after all, she is a brother and sister, not to mention, Hu Mingchen's recent changes really make her satisfied and moved.

Even if the few dollars left will make the next life more difficult, compared to Hu Mingchen's beating, she thinks it is worth it.

"Sister, don't worry, our family's life will not be so difficult anymore, please believe me, I will definitely earn money, and I will definitely give you and Xiaojiao and your parents a good life, I am determined." Hu Mingchen patted his chest and reassured.

Hu Mingchen's simple treatment was completed, and the Luo family also returned from the worship ceremony.

Hu Jianqiang went to the Qingshui River to eat and drink to help people, and came back on time at noon.

"Xiao Chen, what's wrong with you? Why is your face so swollen? Which one hit you?" Hu Jianqiang was taken aback when he saw Hu Mingchen.

Hu Jianqiang thought that Hu Mingchen was beaten by others, look at his posture, as long as he knew who it was, he would immediately come to the door to settle the account.

"Third uncle, it was grandma who beat him. Hu Yujiao replied unconvinced.

"Ah, why did your grandmother beat you? What the hell happened?" I heard that it was the masterpiece of my mother Zhong Ying, which was much more than Hu Jianqiang expected.

"Actually, it's nothing, grandma has no choice, my face will be fine in a day or two, it's not a big problem, third uncle, are you done? Can we go to the street?" Hu Mingchen didn't think much of a big deal, and helped Zhong Ying ease his cheeks in turn.

"No, why did your grandmother beat you, and she beat you so hard. Hu Jianqiang is still quite curious and confused about this issue.

"Third uncle, let me tell you, here's the thing, doesn't Xiao Chen ask for money to do business......" Hu Yandie was also dissatisfied with Zhong Ying's behavior, so she simply told the truth of the matter.

After listening to Hu Yandie's story, Hu Jianqiang really didn't know how to evaluate it.

Isn't it wrong to say that his mother Zhong Ying is wrong? However, Hu Mingchen blocked people and worshipped the god tree to collect money, which was also something that had never happened before.

Is it right to say that her mother Zhong Ying is doing the right thing? No matter how you say it, Hu Mingchen is also his own grandson, isn't it, besides, his parents are not at home, and it is difficult to beat him like this.

"Okay, third uncle, it's not a big deal, if you have something, you have to pay something, I don't mind. After rubbing the medicine, it's much better, let's hurry to the street, I may still have time to go to the city to buy goods after finishing my errands. In contrast, Hu Mingchen feels that buying goods and doing business is his top priority.

"Are you going to the city today? Who are you going to?" Hu Jianqiang couldn't imagine that Hu Mingchen was so anxious.

Of course, Hu Mingchen is anxious, he is now waiting for no time, and he is seizing the day.

The sooner you earn money, the sooner you can pay off the debts you owe to others, and the sooner you earn money, the sooner the situation at home can be improved. What's more, dad Hu Jianjun still doesn't know what the situation is, in case he needs more money for treatment in the future, he has to be able to get it.

No matter what the situation, in a word, Hu Mingchen is very eager to make money now, and he must earn money.

"Isn't the third child running to the bus to the city? I can take a bus with her. ”

"She's on the morning bus today, and she probably hasn't returned from the city yet, unless you go back tomorrow, but even if you take her car, she won't have time to accompany you to buy goods, she has to sell tickets." Also, do you know where the wholesale market is? Do you know the market, what if you get scammed, you're so small? If you're going today, you're going to have to spend one night in the city. Hu Jianqiang frowned.

Of course, Hu Mingchen knew where the wholesale market in the city was, but others didn't know that he knew.

"Yes, Xiao Chen, I heard that there are a lot of rules in the city, there are a lot of bad people, and you haven't been to the city much, I think you better not go, what if you go and can't come back?" Hu Yandie said worriedly and scared.

"I can't wait for tomorrow, we'll go now and take the train back in the evening. The city is not as terrible as you say, the city is not the Lion Rock, and I am not going to steal and rob, it's okay, I don't know the place, I will ask the police, can the police also be bad people?" In order not to worry his sister, Hu Mingchen could only comfort her like this.

There is a railway station in Duge Township, but this small station is not on the street of Duge Township, but it is a two-hour walk from the township government, and it is located in Yakou Village, which is located on the mountainside above Hu Mingchen's house. Since the station is still within the territory of Duge Township, the station name is also Duge Station. It takes more than an hour to walk back to Hu Mingchen's house from Duge Railway Station.

"Forget it...... Why don't you let me accompany you on a trip, I'm really not at ease with a person like you...... If there is anything wrong, how can your parents explain when they come back?" Hu Jianqiang thought about it, and only accompanied him on a trip.

"Third Uncle...... If you go, you'll have to pay for the round-trip journey. "Hu Mingchen's capital is very small now, and if he pays the shuttle bus fare, the principal that can be purchased will be compressed even less.

"You kid, don't worry, you don't have to pay for my travel expenses, I'll figure it out myself. ”

"Third uncle, I didn't mean that, I ...... You don't have much money now, it's okay for me to go alone, why spend more money," Hu Mingchen said embarrassedly.

"I don't have any money, and I won't be able to find a dozen yuan of travel expenses, okay, let's do it, I'll go to the street with you first." ”

After Hu Jianqiang explained to Hu Yandie and Hu Yujiao, he accompanied Hu Mingchen to the street.

When they arrived at the school, Hu Jianqiang and Hu Mingchen went to settle down the side room.

After talking, Hu Jianqiang actually knew something about that family, the man's surname was Zheng, the woman's surname was Zhang, and an adult came forward, and Hu Mingchen successfully rented this side room.

After settling the rent, the uncle and nephew went to the intersection where the shuttle bus was parked on the street to prepare for a ride to the city.

At present, there are only four shuttle buses operating in Duge Township, two buses to the county and two trips a day, and two buses to the city, which only make two trips a day.

Go here in the morning and come back at noon, or you can go here in the afternoon and come back from the city the next morning.

Hu Jianqiang borrowed 20 yuan from a relative's house who opened a shop on the street, and went to take a shuttle bus with Hu Mingchen.

Ten minutes after getting on the bus, the shuttle bus started to set off.

At this time, whether it is to the city or to the county from Duge Township, the road is difficult to walk, and the road dug up by people who violate the planned business policy can be reduced by many detours, but this road is completely dirt-like, potholes, and the car is bumpy on this kind of road, and the people sitting in it are like riding a roller coaster, ups and downs.

People who don't get motion sickness are fine, but if they encounter motion sickness, it is estimated that before they finish walking the dirt road from Duge Township to Fangwo Village, they will vomit and be paralyzed.
