Xin Wenfang's third sister, the second sister Xin Meifang and the third sister Xin Yanfang, one is three years younger than Xin Wenfang, five years younger, the eldest sister is like a mother, Xin Wenfang has taken care of the two younger sisters since she was a child, she is ten years old and no one comes to the door to propose, she really raises the two sisters as daughters.

But sometimes she can't figure it out, why has the situation changed so much in more than ten years, the second sister didn't say a word to get married and have children, the family was kept in the dark, and the third sister felt that her parents were angry that she married her to the head of the second marriage, and she hadn't taken a man or child to the house for so many years of marriage.

Today, the third sister put her father angry in the hospital, but if there is a little shame on her face, Xin Wenfang is not so uncomfortable in her heart, and she can say a word about her sister's mistakes.

But she couldn't see it, the third brother-in-law she had never met knew guilt and sincerely repented, but her sister, who was raised by her parents with one meter and one porridge, was indifferent and chilling.

Xin Wenfang refused the money given by Chen Zhongzhong without saying a word, Xin Yanfang saw that the eldest sister, who had always been a good person, suddenly became cold, and the way she pulled down her face made her a little stunned, she pulled Chen Zhongzhong's sleeve, Chen Zhongzhong said two good words for her daughter-in-law, and in the end only Xin Wenfang said calmly: "It's nothing, you can go." ”

It was useless to say so many soft words, Xin Yanfang was a little unhappy, she felt that Xin Wenfang was deliberately throwing her face to show her. She was spoiled by Chen Zhongzhong for these people, naturally she couldn't bear this anger, the previous worries and anxieties disappeared, and she didn't care about the old father in the rescue room and pulled Chen Zhongzhong away angrily.

Xin Wenfang closed her eyes, completely disappointed in this sister.

Xin Andong had no relatives in his last life, except for his grandfather, he had no relatives, and his temperament was a little independent, he had more family members in this life, he cared about them very much, although Xin Yanfang was his third aunt, but her behavior today completely disliked Xin Andong, and he didn't want Xin Wenfang to be sad for such an undistracted third aunt, so he gave Xin Anqiu a look and signaled her to comfort her mother.

Xin Wenfang's face gradually eased under Xin Anqiu's comfort, and at this time, the door of the rescue room opened, and the doctor in the white coat took off his mask and rubbed his eyebrows tiredly, "Who is the family?"

"I'm, I'm his child, doctor, is my dad okay?" Xin Wenfang anxiously stepped forward to ask, and Xin Andong also stared at the doctor tightly.

"Fortunately, the rescue is timely and not life-threatening, but the old man is old, greatly stimulated and has slight signs of stroke, and the family should pay more attention to his emotions, otherwise there is no guarantee of good luck today next time. ”

The doctor's very pertinent words made Xin Wenfang happy and sad, happy that the old man was fine, sad that the culprit who caused this incident was the old man's own daughter, I am afraid that the old man will remember the stimulation this time for a lifetime.

There was a false alarm, and the family finally put their minds at ease.

Grandpa was pushed into the ward, the old man was asleep before the anesthetic had passed, Xin Andong comforted his mother for a while, and said to Xin Anqiu to go out to buy dinner. From noon to now, Xin Andong, the third sister and his parents have not been touched, Xin Andong was also seriously ill and couldn't bear it early, he had money on him, he bought ten meat buns and five vegetable cakes at the entrance of the hospital, and borrowed a water bottle from the nurse and brought a bottle of boiling water to the ward.

"Mom, grandpa will wake up for a while, tonight is about to be a vigil, you can't bear it if you don't eat, I bought some meat buns and vegetable cakes, you eat a few pads to be hungry, there is boiling water here, drink water if you are choking." Xin Andong put down his things and beckoned Xin Dazhuang and the third sister to eat first, people are iron and steel, and only when they are full can they have the strength to take care of their grandfather.

Xin Anqiu's face was full of guilt, her younger brother was younger than her but could take care of things, she panicked as soon as her grandfather fell down just now, completely forgetting that her parents hadn't eaten yet, she was busy taking over Xin Andong's work of pouring water, and said distressedly, "I'll come here, you do that rest meeting, the back injury hasn't healed yet, don't recur again." ”

"I'm so vulnerable. Xin Andong smiled, holding a vegetable cake in his hand and gobbling it up while drinking water, he was also very hungry, and he finally felt a little alive after eating two bites of bread, he ate the last bit of vegetable cake in his hand, wiped his hands and stood up.

told Xin Wenfang about his plans, "Mom, my father and I are here tonight to guard grandpa, you still have the third sister to go home, grandma must be anxious about grandpa's situation, I'm afraid that she is alone at home and thinking nonsense, you and the third sister can comfort her more when they go home." ”

Xin Wenfang put down the meat bun in his hand and said disagreeingly, "I'll be here with your father, and you and An Qiu will go back." ”

Xin Wenfang will never allow her son who has just recovered from a serious illness to stay here for vigil, there are only two quilts in the hospital, she and the man can still squeeze it, Dongzi's body is better, but she can't be sloppy. Xin Andong's opposition was invalid, and he was forcibly ordered by Xin Wenfang to go home with the third sister.

At this time, it was already dark, and as early as after arriving at the hospital, Xin Andong asked Wang Xiangmei to go back first, because he didn't know how long he would wait, and he couldn't let people wait. The sisters and brothers walked back to the village on foot, their village is relatively backward, there is no electricity, walking in the village, except for the occasional kerosene lamp with a little sporadic light, it is really dark and you can't see your fingers.

The sister and brother helped each other and returned home, but there was no light, Xin Andong thought that his grandmother was asleep, who knew that as soon as he pushed the door, his grandmother's anxious voice came out, "Is Dongzi coming back?"

As soon as the old man's voice fell, he came out with a gown and a lit kerosene lamp, and Xin Andong saw that his grandmother was walking tremblingly, so he hurriedly helped her into the house. First tell grandma about grandpa's situation, and focus on telling grandma that grandpa's life is not in danger, and he can go home in a few days. Grandma was relieved, and her pale face was slightly better.

That night, after a tiring day, Xin Andong fell asleep after washing, and when he turned over, his back still had a faint pain. There are waves of unrest in the family, and he, as a member of the Xin family, especially when his father is mentally incomplete, should bear the burden. He spent some money on hospitalization before, and now that his grandfather has been admitted to the hospital again, there must be another expense. The family's savings are all saved by the hard work of the parents to sell lobsters, and they have already spent seventy-seven eighty-eight, and the money will not be born, so it is naturally getting less and less, and the top priority is to earn money first.

The school can only ask for a few more days off, but fortunately, it is only the knowledge of junior high school, and for Xin Andong, who was a top student in his previous life, even if he does not attend classes, it is no problem.

Thinking like this, Xin Andong, who couldn't resist the sleepiness, fell asleep.

When he woke up the next morning, he asked the third sister to cook some white porridge and a few eggs to take to the hospital, and he stayed at home to wash and scrub the lobster and screws that Xin Dazhuang had just come home yesterday to prepare for cooking. Grandma wanted to follow her to the hospital to visit her grandfather, but was stopped by Xin Andong, the old man's legs and feet were injured in his early years, and he walked too far to the county seat, so he said that he could calm his grandmother.

Xin Andong's craftsmanship is better than Xin Wenfang's, and he is fast, and after a while, the spicy crayfish and stir-fried screws will be burned. It's no problem to fill pots and buckets, the key is, how can he move to the county seat alone.

Just when he was covering his head and was at a loss, Jiang Dahe, who cared about his good brother, heard his mother talk about the Xin family last night, and couldn't wait to rush to the Xin family early in the morning.

Seeing Xin Andong frowning sadly at the two large pots of lobsters and screws in front of him, he first sucked his saliva at the scent, and then said inappropriately, "You forgot that my family has an ox cart, and we can take the ox cart to transport these lobsters and screws to the county seat." ”

Hearing his words, Xin Andong's eyes lit up, "Yes, I'm so stupid, why didn't I think of it before, but your second uncle has already returned, so how about I pay for it alone and let my second uncle help me transport these to the county seat?"

Jiang Dahe's family is relatively smart, an ox cart goes back and forth from the village to the county seat, and the people in the village can take the ox cart into the city, and the Jiang family only charges a meager car fee. Jiang Dahe's second uncle drove the ox cart into the city every day, and the people in the village had to work in the fields every day, and generally entered the city relatively early, five or six o'clock, but now it was almost ten o'clock, and the Jiang family's ox cart must have come back long ago, so Xin Andong proposed to pay for Jiang Ershu to take him into the city alone.

Jiang Dahe was unhappy when he heard this, and his face was long, "We are still not brothers, my ox cart can be used whenever you want, how can I ask you for money, as long as I tell the second uncle, I won't charge you a penny." ”

"That's not good, one yard is one yard, you are my brother, but the second uncle's ox cart business is also to make money, I can't break the rules because of your relationship," Jiang Dahe blushed and wanted to speak, Xin Andong said helplessly, "You listen to me, there is one and there are two, today I broke the rules, what will the people in the village think, what will the second uncle do in the future?"

As soon as he explained, Jiang Dahe, who was hot-headed just now and felt that Xin Andong didn't treat him as a friend, scratched his head depressedly, and had to say that Dongzi was very reasonable, so he had to say in a muffled voice, "That's okay, you give less, I'll tell the second uncle for you." ”

Xin Andong hadn't said the price yet, and Jiang Dahe had already rushed out of the Xin family's gate like a small cannonball.

Jiang Dahe's second uncle is a swarthy man, who was attacked by a blind bear in the mountains in his early years and fell off the mountain and injured a leg, so the middle-aged uncle in his forties has never been able to marry a daughter-in-law. Second Uncle Jiang didn't care, but Jiang Dahe's father Jiang Dacang didn't bear it, he had two sons, Jiang Dahe was born as soon as he was born to pass on to Second Uncle Jiang, nominally Jiang Dahe is the son of Second Uncle Jiang, and he will fall into the pot in the future.

Therefore, Second Uncle Jiang is the most favored person of the Jiang family except for Grandma Jiang to Jiang Dahe, Jiang Dahe mentioned Xin Andong's matter, and kept emphasizing that Dongzi was his good brother, and Second Uncle Jiang immediately drove the ox cart to Jiang's house.

Last night, Second Uncle Jiang also drove Grandpa Xin to the hospital in an ox cart, Xin Andong was very grateful to him, "Second Uncle is bothering you, if it weren't for you and my grandfather's situation yesterday, my grandfather's situation wouldn't be as optimistic as it is now, and now I'm sorry to bother you to send me to the county seat." ”

Although Second Uncle Jiang is disabled, he is very optimistic, and Xin Anqiu, who also has a lame leg in this regard, is much more gloomy, and he laughs heartily: "I heard my Dongzi praise you for often teaching him topics that he can't in school, I thank you for being too late, we are a village, Uncle is driving ox carts, and it is not troublesome to go back and forth." ”

The bullock cart was very spacious, and Xin Andong sat in the corner, and the basin and bucket containing the lobster and screws were placed at his feet. Jiang Dahe had to join in the fun, and made a fuss about Second Uncle Jiang going into the city, and Second Uncle Jiang had always been fond of such a little overlord, and unconditionally agreed to any request, he let the two sit down and drove the ox cart towards the county seat.

The speed of the ox cart is naturally different from walking, and after a while, the three of them arrived at the county seat, which is still an old place, but they didn't expect that the stall of the Xin family and his wife was occupied by someone for a few days, and he was an acquaintance, that is, the middle-aged man who echoed Ge Jinhua and instigated other stall owners to boycott the Xin family's father.

He didn't know if he recognized Xin Andong, and when he saw Xin Andong, he paused, and then quickly turned his head and pretended to greet the guests as if nothing happened.

Jiang Dahe had never seen so many small stalls piled up, especially the two rows of roadsides were full of crayfish and screws, just smelling the fragrance made the mouth salivate, he couldn't help but sniff, and couldn't wait to ask Xin Andong, "Why don't you set up a stall, these people have occupied the land, if you don't have a good position, can you still sell lobsters?"

Looking around, there is only one spot near the most remote corner, which is a little far from the intersection, especially in front of which are full of lobster stalls, and it is easy for customers to walk here and have already bought crayfish from other families.

Xin Andong quietly took the expressions of these stall owners into his eyes, and said calmly, "Whether the business is good or not, there are some reasons for the location, but the guests are most concerned about the quality. ”

Do these people think that if they squeeze his stall into a corner, there will be no business?

Jiang Dahe has admired Xin Andong very much since he entered middle school, not only because he has almost a perfect score in every exam, but also because no matter what urgent and helpless things happen to his class leader, as long as he asks Dongzi, he can quickly solve it.

He has a kind of honey confidence in Xin Andong.

Jiang Dahe is clamoring to do business with Xin Andong, Second Uncle Jiang can't do it, he can't go home by himself, you must know that even if all the crayfish in Xin Andong's barrel are sold, there are still very heavy barrels and basins, and it will take a lot of effort for the two children to carry them home, so he has to lead the ox cart to a no-man's corner and wait for them.

Xin Andong put the lobsters and screws in place, Jiang Dahe was very excited to do business for the first time, and waited for Dongzi to give orders. Xin Andong did not disappoint him, and gave him a particularly simple and not simple task, that is, selling on the street.

Ordinary people can't pull down their faces for the first time, because they are embarrassed, but Jiang Dahe has no such psychological burden at all, and the big voice he inherited from his mother finally came in handy here, and he shouted twice, almost deafening Xin Andong's ears.

"Dongzi, do you see me shouting like that just now?" Jiang Dahe asked him with shiny eyes.

Xin Andong's feet moved to the side and gave high praise, "That's right, with the loudness you just had, you will definitely be able to attract more guests for us," in order to increase his enthusiasm, Xin Andong said, "You are my salesman, in this way, my lobster is 1 yuan a catty, as long as you call a guest, I will give you a commission of 1 cent for every pound sold, how about it?"

"Are you serious? are you really giving me money?" It's one thing to help your brother, and it's even better if you have the money.

Xin Andong smiled and nodded, "I can't still lie to you, you are here to solicit customers, and give you a commission according to what we agreed just now." ”

A penny doesn't look like much, but in fact, the Xin family's lobster business has already made a reputation, I didn't see that they just set up a stall, and there are already many people coming here from other stalls one after another, in fact, Jiang Dahe doesn't need to sell at all, but he came to give Jiang Dahe money in the name of selling lobsters in order to anger those bad stall owners.

After all, Second Uncle Jiang never mentioned the car money just now, and he wouldn't ask him for it, but Xin Andong couldn't take advantage of others for no reason, so he had to use this 'fair' method to make Jiang Dahe make money, and I believe Second Uncle Jiang wouldn't say anything.

Second Uncle Jiang, who heard their conversation on the side, really had nothing to say, the grandson of the old Xin family was indeed smart, and he sent money to Jiang Dahe without a trace, and his stupid nephew thought that he made a lot of money, but in fact, the Xin family's business did not need him at all.

After a while, the Xin family's stalls, which were still a little deserted at the beginning, quickly appeared with many customers.

While explaining to the old customers the reason why their parents did not come out of the stall, Xin Andong happily admired the angry faces of the other stall owners, and the more he saw them jumping in anger and helplessness, the happier he became.

Other stall owners saw that there were few customers coming to the door, and the business was about to be exhausted, so they also learned Xin Andong's method of selling, but they didn't know that the old customers valued the reputation and outstanding taste of the Xin family's stall, Jiang Dahe's selling was just the icing on the cake, and their selling was ugly, especially those customers who had tasted the taste of their crayfish, and when they heard that they praised their crayfish to the sky, their faces immediately showed an expression of physiological disgust.

Stealing chickens doesn't make rice, that's what you're talking about.

Xin Andong saw that Jiang Dahe was addicted to selling and shouting, and was afraid that he would shout hoarse, so he hurriedly asked him to rest and help greet the guests.

"Hahaha, Dongzi, you let this idiot goose be your bookkeeper?

Xin Andong raised his head and was surprised to find that Tong Zhenghao was holding a football in front of the stall, smiling with a mocking face, and the amazing thing was that standing next to him was Jiang Xuanzong, who was wearing a blue and white striped school uniform that looked like a school uniform, and two 'Chinese' sportswear with two big characters written on his chest!

"You ...... Come to buy lobster?" Xin Andong asked hesitantly.

The two of them looked like they had just finished playing football, Jiang Xuanzong's forehead was still a little sweaty, there was a drop of sweat on the bridge of Yingting's nose that was about to fall, and his handsome face was rarely a little flushed, but he just looked at his eyes, inexplicably displeased.

Unhappy?

Tong Zhenghao saw that Jiang Dahe helped Dongzi sell lobsters for a long time, he used to play the role of a customer, but today he is fortunate to be a stall owner, since he is full of interest, he wants to sell lobsters with him.

There are waiting customers all around, can Tong Zhenghao, a young master who is not diligent in all four limbs, understand the rod scales? Xin Andong really didn't dare to let him play blindly, but Tong Zhenghao saw that Jiang Dahe could play with himself but couldn't play, and he was jealous, Xin Andong was almost drowned out by the sound of his crusade, so he had to look at Jiang Xuanzong helplessly and ask for help.
