Chapter Eighty-Four: My Brother's Secret

During the summer vacation, most of the children in the school have returned to their hometowns, and most of the people who have not returned home have gone to work-study, and there are not many people in the school, so there is naturally no business in the store.

But Mrs. Wu is busy like a spinning top every day, not only has to clean up the store, but also to buy some new utensils, but also to visit the wholesale market to learn about the purchase of ingredients. Originally, I relied on enthusiasm to order this store, thinking that it was just a trivial matter of cooking and selling food. It was only when I did it that I realized that there were a lot of big and small things, and I had to learn and explore everything by myself.

"It's really better to be a little clerk and worry-free." This is her first impression after she stood at the door of the store and looked at the four big words of "rich fast food" after she tidied up the small shop. After that, I was worried about how to make more money faster. After she tossed it all the time, she still had a few hundred yuan of pocket money left in her hand, and if she didn't get it in, she was about to drink white water and go hungry.

The most important thing she has to do now is to promote her shop. She wholesaled postcards of celebrities, wrote down her store name and contact number of the store, as well as what she sold and how to deliver the food, and prepared to distribute it to the children when school started.

She saw a lot of advertising pages printed by businesses, and the children took them and lost them without even looking at them, and she knew that most of these children were chasing stars and liked to give each other star cards, so she thought of this trick. She once helped a college student carry her luggage to the dorm room when she saw that their wall table was full of photos of celebrities.

"We all chase stars in our dormitory, no, it should be that all of our classes are chasing stars." The child saw that Mrs. Wu was fascinated by the pictures on the wall, and said with a smile, "If you like it, I can give you one, I have prepared a lot of gifts." ”

At that time, Mrs. Wu thought of using this promotional strategy if she opened a store in this college town, but she didn't expect it to come in handy so soon.

On this day, she cleaned up her little bedroom, and was lying on the small bed made of sawing off part of the legs of the extra table in the bedroom, happily fiddling with her postcards. Finally, in this mountain city, she doesn't have to rely on others, and she has her own place to stand.

As long as you are willing to work hard, it should be absolutely no problem to support yourself! Moreover, she also believes that as long as she is willing to work hard, she will get better and better. She doesn't want to be rich and rich, but she wants not to disturb others, to be able to worry about food and clothing, and to take care of her parents.

"Anyone?" A gruff male voice came from the antechamber.

"Who? Someone! Here it comes! Mrs. Wu hurriedly got up and walked out of the bedroom, and when she opened the curtain, she was stunned.

"Why are you here? How did you know I was here? This sudden surprise made Mrs. Wu a little overwhelmed.

"What, I don't even know my brother anymore? Seeing my brother stupid? Brother Defu took off a big burden on his shoulders and smiled at Mrs. Wu.

Mrs. Wu took a few steps forward, looking at the face of the person who came, the dark skin, the eyebrows and eyes similar to herself, who else could it be if it wasn't Brother Defu?

"Brother, why are you here?" Mrs. Wu cried with joy, a few days ago, in order to buy this small shop, Mrs. Wu called her brother and borrowed 40,000 yuan. But he didn't say where he was, he only said that he had something to use urgently, and asked his brother to transfer the money to the card.

"Don't let my brother sit down first, I'm going to die of heat all the way!" Brother Defu looked around while finding a nearby chair and sat down, and said, "Yes, it's quite clean and beautiful." ”

"Well, look at me, brother, have you eaten? Must be thirsty, right? Mrs. Wu hurriedly brought a glass of water and put it in Defu's hand.

"A few days ago, Uncle Wu said that he came to the city to send his son to walk around the university, as if he saw you."

The son of the third uncle of Nawu has a promising future, and he was admitted to the university, and he is the only college student in Wujia Village for many years. Although Brother Defu moved to the town, he also heard the news a long time ago, thinking that he had always gotten along well, so he went to have a drink and said goodbye.

The third aunt has always had a long tongue, so she told Defu that Uncle Wu had met a woman and Mrs. Wu when he sent the child to school. In fact, Uncle Wu never told others, because he wasn't sure that it was 100% Mrs. Wu, but it looked very similar. At that time, he and the child brought a lot of luggage, and they didn't dare to rush forward to talk. After coming back, she said it so casually, and Aunt Wu only heard it, and she was sure that it was Mrs. Wu.

Of course, the third aunt also added some digressions such as how Mrs. Wu is as beautiful as a flower now, how she is so prosperous, and how she is graceful.

After hearing this, Brother Defu went home and called Xu Ming to make sure that Mrs. Wu was by his side. Xu Ming told him the truth and told him that Mrs. Wu had actually left a long time ago. Just when Brother Defu was worried, Mrs. Wu called the person asking for money.

So, when Brother Defu went to the county bank to make money to Mrs. Wu, he asked a few more words and determined that Mrs. Wu's bank card was opened in the provincial capital. It was still at the bank near the university town, so I looked for it all the way. What's more coincidental is that the place where he lives is Zhou Hong's hotel, so he inquired by the way, and Zhou Xiao led him over.

"Oh, I see." Mrs. Wu smiled, "Brother, you are really amazing." ”

After listening to Mrs. Wu's words, Defu unloaded a heart that he was carrying. It was not in vain that he bothered to make up such a leaky lie. He's not good at lying, and he's still telling such a big lie. Fortunately, the son of the third uncle's family was indeed admitted to the university.

"You and Xu Ming, what's going on?" After drinking a glass of water, Defoo threw out the question he was most concerned about. "Why, don't you know how dangerous it is for a person like you to be outside? Anyway, you have to let your family know where you are, don't you? ”

Mrs. Wu just had red circles in her eyes and didn't speak, how could she say it? She didn't even dare to think about it now, and when she thought of those things, she felt distressed and couldn't move. But now is the time when she needs to be more busy, and she can't delay. The past is gone, what else is there to say.

"If you don't want to say it, don't say it, my brother heard the little girl say, your store is quite decent, and it looks really good now." It's just a little smaller, is there 60 square meters in this store? The elder brother looked at Mrs. Wu's embarrassed expression and hurriedly changed the topic.

Originally, there will be many changes in emotional matters, not to mention that the man's conditions are so good and the family strength is so strong, some contradictions and frictions are inevitable. And he has never been optimistic about the relationship between Mrs. Wu and Xu Ming, after all, the two are too different.

Since Mrs. came back and started her own business, she must have let it go, what does it matter if she didn't mention it in the past? In addition to satisfying his curiosity as an older brother, it doesn't make his sister sad in vain, and it doesn't help, Defu thought to himself. Besides, he now has someone in his heart who is more suitable for Mrs. Wu.

"In the beginning, I couldn't take care of the store when it was bigger. What about Xiaoxiao? Went back? Mrs. Wu asked.

"Well, who? Who is Xiaoxiao? Defu was stunned, came back to his senses and said, "Go back, say the store is busy." It seems that you have a good relationship, and the brother and sister look like real people, with this kind of friend by their side to take care of each other, my brother is more down-to-earth. ”

"Brother, how is Mom? What about sister-in-law? You told them they were looking for me? Mrs. Wu said anxiously.

"No, no. You can rest assured, knowing that if you don't tell your family, you just don't want your family to know where you are and don't want to go back. If your sister-in-law and our mother find out, they will definitely pull you back. I came out this time to see what new things are used for welding in a big place, and I will go back after staying for two days. ”

"Well, don't tell mom I'm here. Also, when the third uncle asks again, you say that you recognized the wrong person, not me. "Mrs. Wu hasn't figured out how to face the former villagers yet.

"This time, except to make sure you're here. I'm going to tell you one thing anyway. Defu's face suddenly became a little heavy, since she was a child, it was the first time for Mrs. Wu to see her brother have this expression. She didn't speak, looked her brother in the eye seriously, and motioned for him to continue.

"Takedo, Takedo's child, go back to the village." Defu said.

"Huh?" Mrs. Wu's eyes widened in surprise, and her face was incredulous. How did you get back? Why come back? What is the purpose? Did you come back with yourself?

"I met him and had a drink together. That kid is also a poor child. Defoe paused and continued.

"You don't know, before, our mother did a foolish thing in order to find me a daughter-in-law. That kid, in order to help me, alas, I don't know what to say anymore. In short, your brother is a bastard, you just look at your brother's face and forgive that child. Defoe buried his face deeply, as if he were trying to find a hole in the ground to burrow into.

"Huh? Why? Is there anything else I don't know? Mrs. Wu was surprised, and remembered Wu Duo's disdainful look every time she saw Wang's mother. Originally, Wuduo and his mother had a good relationship, but why did they become like that? She had wondered if something had happened before, but she hadn't figured it out. I also asked my mother and Budo, and they each said "nothing" and brought it.

"Well, actually, in fact, your sister-in-law, your sister-in-law was deceived by me, to be precise, our mother asked Wu Duo to help deceive her. I, I was also in a hurry to get married at that time, you know, my legs, it's hard to find. Brother Defu looked embarrassed, and saw that he had wasted a lot of effort to say this.

"Brother, if you don't want to say it, don't say it, I forgive him or not, it's nothing, anyway, I don't see each other now, and there's nothing at stake." Mrs. Wu looked at her brother's embarrassed appearance and comforted.

"That being said, but, but your brother and I have a troubled conscience." Defu lowered his head and hugged his head, and cried out in a whimper. Mrs. Wu's mind was full of resentment and doubts, and she couldn't think of how to comfort her brother for a while.

After a long time, Defu wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and choked up: "Maybe we did this lack of virtue back then, so that our old Wang family has not been able to add a son and a half daughter." It's only because it affects you and hurts you......"

"It's all a family, what's wrong with you? What the hell is going on? Mrs. Wu patted her brother on the shoulder and comforted her, then filled the cup with water and stuffed it into her brother's hand. She didn't understand why her brother was interceding for Wuduo now.

"That year, Wu Duo came to our house, and when he went out to ask for food, he met a very beautiful and kind girl who gave him a lot of food. She also said that if there was something at home, she could come and help. Help with cleaning and scrubbing or something. Defoe took a sip of water, and his expression became resolute and determined. These things have been hidden in the stomach for all these years, and I wanted to rot in the stomach.

"Said that the girl was about the same age as me, and she hadn't left the cabinet yet, so let Wang's mother hurry up and go to the door to propose." Defu cleared his throat and continued: "You know, I was like that at that time, and it was just in time for the bad times at home, and Dad's blacksmith business was not good, and he didn't have much work at the beginning of welding. Wang's mother and I secretly went to see it with Wu Duo, and looked at it from a distance, and I liked it very much. ”

"However, I like people, people didn't take a fancy to me, the matchmaker came to the door to propose, and people thought I had a bad leg, so I pushed it without even seeing me. I inquired privately, there are only two daughters in their family, the eldest is married far away, and the second child wants to find a son-in-law. Naturally, I wouldn't be the son-in-law, but I wasn't reconciled, I was young and vigorous at that time. I just wanted to make the family suffer a little. So I coaxed Wuduo to coax the girl out, deliberately asking her to go later, and I quietly followed. I ......"

"I was just going to scare her. But when I dragged her into the ravine while it was dark, I, I couldn't help it, and she fainted again, and I just, I ......."

Defoe's hand holding the cup shook unbelievably, and most of the water was spilled outside.
