Chapter 7 See if the old house is there
The next day, Chen's father was on rotation, and Chen's mother went out with Wei Zhong's mother early in the morning to toss the small stall.
originally said that he was going to pick up his younger brother last night, but Chen's father pulled so many people to eat and drink at home, so naturally he didn't care about it. At noon, Chen Yixin offered to go with her father to pick up her younger brother back.
Father Chen thought about it and agreed. I must tell my mother about the house, and I have to believe that my wife went to set up a stall.
The father and daughter dealt with it casually at home, picked up the fruits they bought and went to Grandma Chen.
Grandma Chen lives in the old alley of the North Gate, which belongs to the Chenghuangmiao Street, and now that area sells small household appliances. Grandma Chen's house is in a good location, so she rented half of the house for a pawnshop, lived in two huts in the backyard, and opened a side door to enter and exit.
The father and daughter entered through the side door, and said hello to the owner of the rental room before entering.
Grandma Chen is the typical old lady of the residents, not very well dressed, but she must be very clean and neat, her hair is combed and she is in a bun at the back of her head.
"Why are you here?" was feeding her little grandson watermelon, Mrs. Chen raised her eyebrows, "There are still in the kitchen, I went to cut and eat it myself." ”
The younger brother of the Chen family is still a five-year-old bear child, who is a little fatter than Chen Yixin, and his face is more inclined to his father.
"Dad, sister, are you here to pick me up?"
"Little things that can't be raised. Although Mrs. Chen scolded, the corners of her mouth still outlined a shallow arc.
"Mom, I'll be able to get the house keys on Monday. Chen's father's attitude in front of his mother was much more docile, "When the time comes, you can live with me." ”
"Bah, I'm not going to your dark room. I have my own house to live in. Mrs. Chen looked disgusted with her son, but she went to bring rock sugar mung bean juice to her son and eldest granddaughter.
"Just get the house. She glanced at Chen Yixin, who was sitting obediently talking to her younger brother, and lowered her voice a little, "The money has been recovered?"
"Well, her brother is useless, and he returned it. Also, her cousin-in-law lent me 10,000 yuan and said that I should buy some furniture or something to move in first, and then pay it back later. ”
"That's fine. I don't have anything to do when you move, I'll give you a thousand yuan, and you buy a washing machine or something for your home. ”
"No, no, no, where can I ask for your money. Dad Chen panicked, and his brows furrowed again.
"I'm not for you. I'm for my grandson, and I don't have any problem with you taking him back, but you have to look after me, don't be like everyone else......"
Mrs. Chen was silent as she spoke, and sat aside in a daze.
"Grandma, what's wrong with you?" Sensing that the atmosphere was suddenly a little wrong, Chen Yixin patted her younger brother on the back and turned her head to look at her father.
Dad Chen was also at a loss, just talking properly.
"It's nothing, I just suddenly remembered that your aunt's grandson was here. What do you think is good about this building, why do you want to move it in?"
Chen Yixin was stunned for a moment before remembering this. She opened her mouth to comfort the old lady, but she didn't know what to say, and don't expect her father, so far Father Chen hasn't reacted.
"Grandma, I see that they have installed protective fences in their homes, just for fear that the children will climb the window and fall. When Dad gets the key, the rest can be slowed down, and the protective fence must be installed first, right? ”
"That's it, get that fence first. Mrs. Chen was so little surprised by her granddaughter, and immediately reacted, "Don't buy anything with that money, go and install that iron bar, make it denser, and don't let my eldest grandson get down." ”
Chen Yixin turned his back and almost didn't laugh, but he could understand the old lady's thoughts. She didn't say anything, these things are all in other people's decoration shops, and she will talk too much at this time, which will only make the old lady angry.
Father Chen looked at the old lady's thoughts and ran in a strange direction, and hurriedly found a topic to diverge.
"Buy a factory?" the old lady was startled, and the dustpan in her hand almost fell off, "Where did you get the money? Don't be deceived." ”
Chen's father knew that his mother had never gone to school, and she didn't understand those esoteric things, so he directly explained to her mother what his daughter said about his own technology shares.
"So, they give money, you contribute, and then everyone shares the money?"
"Yes, that's all. ”
"Then how do you know if you're making money or not? Or why don't you let your sister do it with you? ”
Father Chen was dumb, and he wanted to say that his sister didn't know a fart, and she was a warehouse who distributed labor insurance, so what could she do? But if she really wanted to say that, Mrs. Chen would jump up and slap him in the face.
Father Chen was grinning for a long time and soothed Chen Lao**.
Chen Yixin next to him pricked up his ears to hear clearly, and said in his heart that if this matter is not resolved, then a war between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law will definitely break out.
If you don't let your aunt get involved, grandma doesn't know how to scold Chen's mother, but if you want to get involved, with my aunt's typical arrogance of what to do and not to sprinkle the first place, it's hard to say whether this factory can last for half a year.
I didn't eat dinner at my grandmother's. Mrs. Chen is a layman who pays attention to not eating at lunch. It's okay to get some food for the eldest grandson, but she wants her to break the rules for her son and granddaughter. The family of three honestly left from grandma's house with Brother Chen's things, and before leaving, Father Chen stuffed Mrs. Chen with another 200 yuan back.
Chen Yixin saw it, but he didn't see it. Supporting the elderly is a must, her father is willing to give money, she has no room to speak, and although Mrs. Chen is a little harsh, she is very careful with her grandson. Seeing his younger brother's face, Chen Yixin would not worry about an old lady.
From the city god temple out is Shijia Lane, before the liberation here is where the big family is, there are little lion statues at the door, later broken four old, the little lion is broken, there are some broken bluestone flower pots and water tanks left.
The mansion is already very dilapidated, there is no window glass on the second floor, and the people who originally lived in it have long since moved out, leaving only the empty bluestone tile house to recall the glorious days of the past.
"Your grandmother used to live here. Father Chen rarely had an interest in talking, "I saw that there was no corner of the street, and the old house was your ancestor's house." When I was a child, I used to go in and play, and there were seven or eight families in it, and the house that used to be good was in a miasma. ”
Chen Yixin sat on the back seat of his father's bicycle, and Chen Xiaodi sat on the horizontal bar, looking up at the big mansion with beautiful cornices.
Chen's father said such a sentence casually, but he didn't expect that today's sentence would take root in his daughter's heart, and there would be a big surprise back to him in the future.
