Dad Chen can talk to anyone, that is, he drinks a cup of tea and chats with someone for half an hour on the street, it is rare to meet Zhang Shinian, an audience with a good attitude, Dad Chen is encouraged, and he is even more enthusiastic, and he has no head to say. Chen Anxiu gave people two barrels of varnish, and Chen's father had already talked about the mountain spring water for making tea from the forest on the mountain.

Chenjia Village is located in a remote area, and the city's water company has not laid pipes here, so the lives of people in the mountains depend on the spring water drawn from the mountains.

"The green tea in Dongshan is still brewed with the spring water in our mountain, and the taste is the most positive. ”

"It's really good, at first I just felt very light, there was no other tea fragrance, and there was a very unique fragrance after tasting it. ”

Chen Anxiu and Chen Tianyu are basically the kind of people who drink tea as warm boiled water, and Chen's father has no common language in drinking tea. I went to the door of the roasted tea house to buy it. ”

What Zhang Shinian said again, Chen Anxiu didn't listen carefully, anyway, looking at Chen's father's happy appearance, he estimated that it should be something good. These two people of different ages, identities, and backgrounds can chat so happily for the first time, Chen Anxiu really wants to give Zhang Shinian a thumbs up and praise: Good ability.

"Dad, there is no one in the store at this time, I'll go to Grandpa Jiang San's place. "Jiang Sanye's small restaurant is also in the town, not far from here, he hasn't walked around for a few days.

"Then you go, don't delay too long, your mother is already stir-frying at home, and I'll bring the food over in a while." Father Chen admonished.

Ton Ton was watching TV next to him, but he also stood up at this time.

"Tons, do you want to go together?" asked Chen Anxiu.

Ton Ton nodded.

"If you want to go out, remember to bring a mask, the peach forest behind Uncle Jiang's hotel, I watched that the flowers have bloomed in the past few days, and there is a lot of pollen, so it's better to be careful." "Because of the problem of bronchial allergies before, the family has prepared masks in the places where Ton Ton often stays. Chen Anxiu took out a Snoopy from the drawer on his right hand and gave it to him.

Zhang Shinian seemed to be about to say something, but Chen Anxiu deliberately pretended not to see it, and went out directly with Tonton.

"Dad, the third master's shop is on the south side. Tons of tons saw his father go out and keep going north, and finally couldn't help but remind him. His dad shouldn't be confused enough to do this, right?

"Oh, I know, let's go to the stall over there and buy some fruit for the third master. ”

The fruit stall is in a small shed on the street, and all kinds of fruits in it are swinging out, and behind the stall stands a short middle-aged man, weighing apples on an electronic scale.

"Second Brother Sun. Chen Anxiu said hello with a smile.

The person who set up the stall is called Sun Qing, he is from the nearby Sunjia Village, he is only one meter and two tall, since Chen Anxiu remembers, he has set up a stall in the town, selling roasted goods in winter, selling fruits at other times, he has never been married in his life, and the one who helped to buy the goods before was the eldest brother in his family, and now his eldest brother is old, and it seems that he is his nephew, how old Sun Qing is, Chen Anxiu is not clear, anyway, Chen's father calls him Second Brother Sun, and when Chen Anxiu corrects his children's eight classics, he calls Second Uncle Sun, and when he is playing, he calls Second Brother Sun.

"I know that you stinky boy is back, what you want to buy, pick it yourself. Sun Qing pulled several red plastic bags from below to him, all of them were doing business on the same street, the three children of the Chen family, he knew them, and he had long been accustomed to Chen Anxiu's occasional little nonsense, and he didn't care.

The stalls are full of common fruits, such as apples, pears, bananas and kiwi fruits, strawberries, mangoes, dragon fruit and grapes, and golden pineapples are cut into golden pineapples in glass boxes next to them.

"Second Uncle Sun, how did you sell this pineapple?"

"One dollar a piece. ”

"Tons, do you want to eat pineapple?"

Tons and tons of masks said, "Eat two." ”

Chen Anxiu thought about it and said, "Then just buy one and go back to your grandparents to try it." ”

Sun Qing said, "The pineapples of these two days are very sweet, I'll cut a new one for you, Anxiu, you pick slowly." The pears are also good, they just came up today, and the mangoes are left with this, which is not very good, if you want it, I will give you a cheaper. ”

After Chen Anxiu finished buying fruits, when he passed by the small supermarket, he hesitated slightly, and a young man with a cigarette came out with two boxes of wine, and said with a smile, "Brother-in-law, it's at the door, why don't you come in and sit down?"

"Xiaolei, who are you talking to?" said the voice of another middle-aged woman in the room.

"Brother Chen and Ton Ton are outside. The person who spoke was Wei Xiaolei, and he was Lin Meizi's cousin. After Lin Meizi's father died, she has been living with this aunt, who married a family surnamed Wei in the second village of the Chen family.

Lin Meizi's aunt Lin Shufang wiped her hands and came out of the house, and said with a smile, "Xiaolei is such a big person, and he is still the same as when he was a child, and he still doesn't speak properly. ”

Wei Xiaolei is a classmate of Tianyu and Tianqing, since he was a child, because he and Meizi got close, he called him brother-in-law in a chaotic manner, when he was young and ignorant, he also got Wei Xiaolei out and beat him because of this, this Wei Xiaolei is also a real person, he beat him all the time, he shouted correctly, he lived so close, Chen Anxiu couldn't beat him every day, and then he let it go, it was good before, but now the relationship between Meizi and Jiang Xuan has been settled, Wei Xiaolei still shouted like this, I don't know if Lu Dao is intentional, Chen Anxiu doesn't care about this with him," Xiaolei, where is this wine going?"

Wei Xiaolei saw that Chen Anxiu's expression was indifferent, and he didn't match his words, so he didn't have to find trouble, and followed his words, "What Grandpa Jiang San wanted, I'll send it over." ”

"I'm going to come over later, you wait for me for a while, I'll help you move a box. ”

"No, no, I can still move just a few things. When he passed by Chen Anxiu's side, he whispered, "My sister is at home today." ”

Chen Anxiu pushed him with a smile and said, "Okay, okay, I know the way, you go quickly, I'll go in and buy something." ”

"Auntie, do you have a mask?"

Lin Shufang led them in and said, "Yes, yes, do you want to buy it for tons? There are all children here, there are several kinds." ”

Chen Anxiu paused and said, "It's not tons, are there any adults?"

Hearing this, he frowned.

Lin Shufang smiled and said, "There are also adults, here, there are five, eight, and ten, the best one is this, thirty, very breathable, which one does An Xiu want?"

An Xiu pointed to the side of thirty and said, "Auntie, just take a thirty one." ”

"Okay, if you want pure black, or gray checkered, these two are the best. ”

Chen Anxiu thought of something, and a very bad light flashed in his eyes, "Auntie, take that big white bear lying on his stomach." ”

Lin Shufang was surprised and said, "This?" Although there is no obvious difference between men and women in masks, such a cute shape is usually worn by girls, "Did An Xiu bring his girlfriend back?"

Behind the small supermarket is the courtyard where the Wei family lives, and the back door is open at this time, Chen Anxiu saw Lin Meizi coming out of the house with a handful of leeks, and it seemed that she was going to wash vegetables under the faucet in the yard.

"I'm looking for it, and when I bring it back one day, I'll show it to my aunt. ”

"That's the best, your mother and I are looking forward to this day, find a girlfriend as soon as possible, maybe this wedding can be held with Jiang Xuanmeizi and them, the three of you have been in a relationship since childhood, if you get married together, it will be really lively." ”

Chen Anxiu's right arm hidden in his sleeve ached faintly, he nodded with a smile, and said, "It's quite lively to think about, they chose a good day?"

Lin Shufang said while giving him change, "Not yet, Jiang Xuan's mother is too particular, saying that she wants to find a master to match the eight characters and pick a good day." Besides, according to Jiang Xuan's father's current identity, there must be a lot of guests coming on the wedding day, and this wedding must be well prepared, which will take time. ”

"This is a good thing, it shows that their family values plums. Chen Anxiu can only say that.

"An Xiu, what you said is right, Jiang Xuan's mother likes Meizi very much, no, I called last night and asked Meizi to come over for dinner tonight. My mother-in-law likes it, Jiang Xuan is a person who knows the roots, knows the cold and the hot, Meizi finds such a good marriage, and she will be safe and stable for a lifetime, I will rest assured, and I will be the first to be unwilling to change to others......"

"Dad, I'm hungry, let's go back to dinner. Lin Shufang's chatterbox opened and she didn't plan to stop, and tons of pineapples that had been eating suddenly sounded.

"Look at me, this is endless, you haven't eaten yet, Tonton, Aunt Meizi wants to cook leek cakes at noon, Tonton, stay and eat together." ”

Ton Ton blinked and said politely, "Grandma Xie Xie, but I don't like to eat leek cakes the most." "The most important word is very heavy, for fear that others will not hear how much he doesn't like it.

Lin Shufang looked a little embarrassed, Chen Anxiu hurriedly said, "Tons of people are picky, I haven't eaten leeks since I was a child, auntie, you are busy, then I will leave first." ”

When Chen Anxiu was about to go out, Lin Meizi saw him, chased him out, and asked, "Is the injury on your arm better?" She was resting today, dressed very casually, jeans and a tight sweater, and her figure was very good.

"It's been around for a long time, you see it's not hanging now. Chen Anxiu was afraid that his family would be worried, so when he came back today, he asked Zhang Shinian to help him untie the hanging bandage, and now if his right hand is not too strong, others will not be able to see that he is injured.

"Meizi, have you washed your leeks? Lin Shufang called her in the house.

"Auntie, I'll be here soon. Lin Meizi responded.

"My aunt called you, go quickly. ”

"Let's go out for dinner one day. ”

Chen Anxiu shook Tonton's hand and said, "Jiang Xuan and I said the same thing that day, the three of us will come out to get together one day." ”

"Anxiu, I ......"

"Uncle Zhang. Ton Ton shouted a little reluctantly to the approaching person.

"Mr. Zhang?" didn't Jiang Xuan say that this person was An Xiu's boss, how could he be here.

Zhang Shinian's response was polite and polite, "Miss Lin." ”

"Why are you here?"

"Look at you and Ton Ton have been out for so long, come out and see. Zhang Shinian took the bag of fruit from his hand, and his movements naturally seemed to be doing a very natural thing.

"Meizi, let's go first. ”

*

Tons of tons obviously didn't want to be with Zhang Shinian, he didn't even want to pretend, and he strode forward with a pineapple.

A gust of wind blew, Zhang Shinian covered his mouth and coughed twice, Chen An Xiuxin said, you deserve it, who let you want to stay, obviously there is a problem with the respiratory tract, and you dare to stay in the mountain in this season of flowers.

"By the way, this one is for you. Chen Anxiu excitedly took out the mask he bought from his pocket and tore open the outer packaging to show him.

The little guy showed a little smile for the first time today, but he obviously smiled a little ill-intentionedly, and when Zhang Shinian saw the bear lying on his stomach clearly, he thought that he might understand, and the little guy was obviously still angry about what happened last night.

"Thank you. Zhang Shinian touched his pocket and took this one calmly.

Why is this feeling of being killed in an instant so aggrieved, Chen Anxiu tried to find some ground for himself, so he said, "Actually, what you do, it has nothing to do with me, the key is that your salary has not been given to me yet." ”

"Yes, I understand. ”

was blocked back again, Chen Anxiu looked at the sky, and at this moment he suddenly understood Liu Yue, what was going on.

At noon, Chen's mother temporarily called to a married family to help, and asked someone to bring the dishes over.

"Mom is really willing today, it's all seafood, braised mackerel, spicy fried clams, braised prawns, and boiled oysters. Chen Anxiu couldn't help but sigh when he went out to clean up the dishes. ，

"Your uncle just came yesterday, and he brought these things, and you have a good mouth, just in time. Chen's father said.

After eating, there was nothing to do, Zhang Shinian planned to go out for a walk, Chen Anxiu saw that he was holding a mask in his hand, so he didn't make a sound, and went back to the house to take a nap, only two of them were left in the store, and Chen's father brought up the matter of contracting the mountain again, "Zhuangzhuang, I have been persuading for several days, and your mother does not agree." ”

"Dad, have you figured this out?"

"I've been thinking about it for several years, that piece of mountainous land, I've been to see it several times, it's really good, it's convenient to use water, what I said to you on the phone last time, I plan to plant anything, and the contract fee is not expensive, you don't look at it now, in two years, such a good place will definitely not be able to grab." ”

Seeing this, Chen Anxiu also made up his mind, "Dad, you see if this will work, Mom won't let you do it, then I'll contract, my mother gave me all the allowances in the army, and the money is enough." ”

Father Chen waved his hand and said, "No, no, what's the difference between you contracting and me, your mother will still be angry." ”

"Dad, if the matter is a foregone conclusion, it is useless for Mom to be angry again, no matter how much I coax her, she will not be able to give birth for a few days. ”

Father Chen walked around the store with a teacup, thought for a while and said, "This method is feasible, your mother loves you, she will not be angry for a long time, if it were me, your mother would probably have to divorce me." ”

"Dad, then it's decided, you find a way to drag your mother tomorrow, and I will go to the village committee to pay the money and sign the contract. ”

A big stone in his heart fell to the ground, and Chen's father was overjoyed, "Okay, okay, strong, Dad won't spend your money in vain, I have saved up the money for your marriage and buying a house, and I will add a good car when the time comes." ”

"I'll talk about that later, Daddy. ”

In this way, the father and son secretly decided on the matter of contracting the mountains and forests behind Chen's mother's back.
