Chapter 14: My Uncle's Family
In this way, on the weekend, Zhou Xuan remembered that he hadn't been to his uncle's house for a long time.
My uncle called several times, and it would be wrong for Zhou Xuan not to go again.
According to his memory, Zhou Xuan walked west along the Yangtze River Avenue. After walking for about seven or eight hundred meters, I turned a few corners and arrived at the Xicheng Farmers' Market.
My uncle's family is also rural, and it is still in the same township as Zhou Xuan, but it is not a village, and it is not very far away or very close.
In the past, every time I went to my grandparents' house, I walked over for more than half an hour.
Later, my uncle and aunt rented a stall to sell pork in the county farmers' market, and they had a hard time, but the income was still good.
My uncle would get up at three or four o'clock in the morning every day, and then go to the slaughterhouse to beat pork in the dark, and compete with many pork vendors for pork. Then drag the pork back to the farmer's market, cut and hang it, and wait for my aunt to bring breakfast, and then start the day's work.
I walked to my uncle's stall along the memory, only to see that there were only a few pieces of meat left on the stall that had not been sold.
"Uncle, eat fruit. Zhou Xuan walked over and handed over the fruit in his hand.
In his last life, Zhou Xuan was in junior high school and high school plus a year of repetition, a total of seven years. Every weekend, my uncle and aunt would call and ask Zhou Xuan to go to dinner. Anyway, I don't know how many times I've eaten, but I haven't brought anything and fruit to the door twice.
Later, I went to college and worked, except for going back for the New Year, I didn't usually call my uncle much, but now I think about it, what I did was really wrong.
My uncle and my aunt really care about themselves, and I must repay them well in this life.
When my uncle saw Zhou Xuan coming, he smiled and said, "Why haven't you come recently? What kind of money are you spending indiscriminately? Don't buy it next time." ”
Zhou Xuan said with a smile: "Every time I come to my uncle's house for dinner, I am embarrassed." Bring some fruit, thank you and your aunt for taking care of you, thank you. ”
The uncle looked at Zhou Xuan, and felt that Zhou Xuan had suddenly grown up, his speaking level had improved a lot, and he knew how to be considerate of others, and said with emotion: "Zhou Xuan, you have been a lot more sensible recently." It's very good to know how to be grateful and considerate of people. ”
Zhou Xuan said with a smile: "People always have to try to grow up." ”
My uncle smiled and said, "Okay, let's go, go back to dinner." Your aunt and uncle must be almost ready. "Anyway, I threw the unsold pieces of meat to the stall next door and asked the next door to help sell them. Then put away the kitchen knife on the hook board on the stall and put it on the motorcycle.
Zhou Xuan did the back seat, and his uncle rode the car, and he arrived at the house they rented in a few minutes.
Entering the house, Zhou Xuan saw that two dishes had been set up on the table, and his cousin was watching TV on the side.
Zhou Xuan walked to the kitchen and saw that his aunt was stir-frying, and immediately greeted him cordially: "Uncle!"
When my uncle saw Zhou Xuan, she was very happy, and hurriedly shouted that Zhou Xuan should sit down first, and there were two dishes, and they could eat after they were fried.
Zhou Xuan agreed, took a big orange to his cousin, and said, "Su Yang, come and eat fruit." ”
Su Yang is the daughter of her uncle, she is only five years old this year, and she has not yet entered kindergarten, so she is very cute.
Su Yang took the fruit and said sweetly, "Thank you, brother." ”
I was happy to eat lunch, because the dishes fried by my aunt were very delicious.
Hot fat sausage, sauerkraut fish, spicy chicken, dry pot duck...... These are my aunt's best dishes, spicy and numb, and the taste is simply not good.
During the meal, he naturally talked about Zhou Xuan's achievements, and he couldn't help but be educated by his aunt for a while.
Zhou Xuan's grades in the second year of junior high school have declined badly, and they also know it, but like other teachers, they have said it many times, but Zhou Xuan has not improved.
The children in the relatives, Zhou Xuan's academic performance alone is relatively good. When he was in the first year of junior high school, he also took the tenth place in the grade, and everyone was very happy, thinking that Zhou Xuan's grades would definitely get better and better. When the time comes, I will be admitted to a high school, and then I will be admitted to a key university in the college entrance examination, and there will definitely be no problem at all.
Knowing that Zhou Xuan's grades in the second year of junior high school had declined, everyone was shocked.
"Uncle, uncle, don't worry. In the past, I was more playful, which led to a decline in my grades. At that time, I was very bored with English, and I didn't have the heart to learn English, so I didn't learn other subjects well. Now I'm completely adjusted. I will definitely improve a lot in the next monthly exam. Zhou Xuan knew that his uncle was all for himself, and he also made up his mind that he must do well in this monthly exam.
Hearing Zhou Xuan's words, my uncle was also happy: "If you can think like this, that's the best." ”
"Zhou Xuan, come on, we are all optimistic about you!"
"Yes. I won't let you down. ”
After eating, Zhou Xuan scrambled to wash the dishes, but he was still pressed on the sofa by his aunt to watch TV.
After eating at his uncle's house in the previous life, Zhou Xuan and his cousin usually watched TV, just sat there and watched it all afternoon, and then went back after dinner.
At that time, DVD players were more popular, and there were many DVD rental houses, and it cost a dollar a day to rent a series, so it would cost at least a few dollars to watch a series.
Watching TV, Zhou Xuan was thinking about the fact that his uncle and uncle were discussing the matter of buying a house at lunchtime.
Zhou Xuan also knew about this matter in the previous life, anyway, because of this incident and the later events, my uncle was complained about by my uncle.
In general, my uncle has a little less vision and courage, and his business is a little limited. My aunt has a good eye, but I can't beat my uncle, otherwise the house would have been bought.
In the last life, my aunt proposed to buy a house twice, but because my uncle hesitated and missed the opportunity, the house was not bought.
Later, I saw that within two years, the original house had doubled or doubled, and my aunt regretted it.
Thinking of this, Zhou Xuan wanted to give them some advice, even if they didn't buy a house, they could do something else. At this time, there are still many industries that make money, and it is still possible to earn more than 100,000 yuan a year if you do it well.
In fact, the purpose of this is to repay my uncle for taking care of me at the beginning, and on the other hand, I want the family to talk about it and come out to do business.
With the example of my uncle's family, the family must be more convincing.
At dinner, Zhou Xuan took the initiative to mention that his uncle was going to buy a house: "Uncle, I heard that you seem to say that you want to buy a house at noon?"
When my uncle heard Zhou Xuan ask, he sighed and said, "Your uncle wants to sell a house nearby, but there is not much money now, and I still can't make up my mind." ”
Zhou Xuan said: "My aunt has a good eye, and it will definitely not be a loss to buy a house near No. 4 Middle School now." ”
"You see that Zhou Xuan said that buying a house here will definitely not be a loss, are you still hesitant?" said the uncle, and glared at the uncle.
"Oh, what reason do you have?" the uncle looked at Zhou Xuan, he wanted to see why Zhou Xuan said that he would not lose money if he bought a house at Ximen now.
