Chapter 147, New Year's Trivia
Two people with a child, starting from the second floor to walk slowly, I didn't expect to really come across clothes that look pleasing to the eye, of course, they were picked by their parents.
When the clothes bought last year are worn in winter this year, many people in the village are particularly envious, after all, the place where people in the village can go is so big, either the village market or the county shopping mall.
The channels for goods in these places are very limited, so it is common to see people in the village wearing exactly the same clothes, and the price of the clothes brought back by the parents is put aside, the key is that the village will not "bump into the shirt", which makes people have a sense of novelty.
After paying the bill, Wang Mengfei clamored to eat, Chen Menghan followed her sister with a blank eye, as long as she had her sister's share, she was indispensable, and sometimes even let go of Chen Shu's hand and went directly to pull her sister's hand. The fourth floor of Times Square is the restaurant, and Chen Shu brought Wang Zilan up, but he has never eaten here.
Chen Shu asked for a steamed noodles, Wang Zilan asked for a rice noodle and a fried rice, the two children guarded the big bowl and ate it by themselves with a spoon, and finally Chen Shu asked for a cup of milk tea, and only let the two children drink it with a straw after the temperature was slightly cooler.
On the first floor of the mall is the supermarket, which has a fruit section, and after eating, I bought two toys for the children, and then went to the fruit section, and the two children bought whatever they wanted, not forgetting the fruits they often bought - oranges, bananas and apples.
On the way back, Chen Shu and Wang Zilan were silent about meeting Xiao Yafang, but they didn't want to ruin Chen Shu's interest in this kind of thing, and Chen Shu also knew that it was naturally impossible to make extraneous branches emotionally.
Although it is said that men change when they are rich, who dares to say that there are no exceptions, after all, that is only to describe a small group of people. When I got home, my brother and they were also at home, helping to unload the things they bought and move them to my mother's room.
The two children took a box of strawberries they had just bought back to go to their grandmother, and they repeatedly emphasized on the way that they could never eat without washing, so the two children were very quiet along the way, just staring at the strawberries in the box, and now they finally arrived home, and the first thing that came to mind was grandma.
Now the family needs to buy the New Year's things are basically bought, tomorrow is the last market in the neighboring village, generally the village is the last market to buy couplets, door gods, stove kings and other stickers, at the same time the children are most looking forward to this time to go to the market to buy firecrackers.
Since the company has become bigger, there is no less buying during the holidays every year, and last year because my parents and Chen Shu were not there, so the home was much more deserted than before. It was for this reason that the uncle's family and three cousins came over for a reunion dinner.
The ceremonial flowers bought back were basically released by the eldest brother and the second brother's two children, and the children of the third brother's family are still young and don't know how to play.
This year, it is estimated that my parents must have discussed with my uncle, and only by having Chinese New Year's Eve dinner together feels that they are a family. The old man is gone, if the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner is not together, it feels really alienated.
After breakfast on the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, Chen Shu took the car and went into the house, and when he came out, his brother and sister-in-law also came out. "Are you going to the market? I'm going to buy some cannons. Chen Shu said.
"I'm about to go, by the way, buy more for our brother and send them over, maybe our big brother is still in the company, the more things come to this time, either the heating is leaking, or the water pipe is frozen and cracked. Chen Qiang said.
"It's this business, and I'm sure I'll find it at any time. You guys go by car first, we'll go in a while, and come back by the way to buy groceries, let's buy heavy ones. Chen Shu said.
"Well, you just buy the cannon, and I'll buy the couplets and your sister-in-law and all that. After saying that, the elder brother got in the car and set off, Chen Shu waited for Wang Zilan for a while, and the two of them also got in the car and came out of the house, but none of the children were brought.
The four children in the house are tossing with toys, and what the adults are doing when they go out is not taken seriously at all. This time, Chen Shu really bought a lot of firecrackers, much more than in any other year, and even was more careful when driving, in case of an accident, it would be over.
Except for the first year after making money, he bought a fireworks bomb, and then Chen Shu never bought it again, mainly because it was too powerful, and if it exploded on the ground, it would definitely kill all the glass in the house. This year, Chen Shu still did not resist the temptation and bought more than 20 at once.
The fireworks were set off with a kraft paper roll of cannon barrels, and when they were set off at home, the cannon barrels were clamped with bricks, and Chen Shu had already made up his mind not to use this thing, just for the sake of safety.
After arriving home, in addition to putting down a lot of firecrackers at his own house, Chen Shu drove to his three cousins again, leaving some of them behind, but the barrel of the firecracker was still in the car, and he was going to the north of the village to make a seamless pipe.
Chen Shu has a primary school classmate named Chen Yongli, the four oldest people in the queue call him Chen Si'er, his second brother runs an electric welding processing stall on the side of the road in the north of the village, Chen Shu wants to ask if there is a suitable thick-walled seamless pipe, and then weld a heavy steel plate base, so that there is no need to worry about explosion.
"Chen Shu, are you free to come over and see what is missing?" said Chen Yongli's second brother, Chen Yingli.
"Look at the thick thick-walled seamless pipe, I want to use seamless welding to make a cannon barrel, this thing is not safe. If it blows up, it won't necessarily hurt anyone, but the glass at home will definitely suffer. Chen Shu said.
"Yes, there are a few at home that are about one meter or so, it seems that they are leftovers for tractor buckets, I will find them for you, and they are used as cannon barrels, five thick (mm) is enough. After speaking, he turned out a section in a pile of uneven pipe heads for a while, and compared the caliber just the same.
"That's it, I'll find you an iron plate, this one has to be thicker, so it's more stable. You didn't come back last year, did you? I don't think I saw you. Chen Yingli spoke while welding.
"No, our children didn't come back when they were too young, and I let my parents bring them back when the children were older. Chen Shu said.
"Your eldest brother got it, I didn't think of getting a company that sells steel, and now I also go to your brother to buy pipes, steel bars and steel plates or something, but unfortunately I don't have your brother's vision, it's your idea, right? If you have any ideas, help me think about it." Chen Yingli said casually.
"Second brother, your skills are good, but your knowledge limits your way to make money, if you have time, go out more and go farther. Look at other places, especially rich places, how people's iron gates are made, and you will know what to do when you come back, of course, I just said it casually. Chen Shu didn't dare to guarantee that this would be successful, mainly because he saw that the iron door made by the other party was too simple.
"Your idea is good, I'll go out for a walk after the New Year, good idea!" stopped the electric welding in his hand when he spoke, and looked at Chen Shu with a welding handle and pondered carefully, it really made sense.
After the welding was completed, it was moved up to help put it on Chen Shu's car, such a big thing was not light, so he deliberately found a cardboard box underneath, so as not to poke the inside of the car, and Chen Shu took out the wallet after putting it away. "How much?"
"What kind of money is not money, my parents and my grandmother receive more than 1,000 yuan from you every year, what is this broken thing, not to mention that it is all scraps. Let's go, let's go!" hurriedly waved his hand as he spoke, not looking at the hundred yuan handed over by Chen Shu.
Chen Shu also saw that the other party was not shirking humility on face, so he could only go back to the car and drive around in the car. However, after the body turned around, he put down the glass of the car, and then took out a box of "China" and threw it over. "Take this and smoke it!"
Seeing the cigarette thrown over, he quickly reached out to catch it, and could only smile helplessly, and then watched Chen Shu leave. When Chen Shu left Chen Yingli, he remembered that he should also weld a cannon tube, which is indeed much safer than a paper tube, and after thinking about it, he rummaged through it again, mainly because he was enjoying the flowers, and it was good to look at it.
