It wasn't until the car stopped at the door of Sun Chen's house that Gu Songyuan woke him up, and agreed with him that when Li Hansen came, Sun Chen would accompany him, and Gu Songyuan told the coachman to go back to the town.

Sun Chen didn't even eat dinner, so he climbed onto the kang and continued to sleep.

In a few days, he will continue his career as a merchant, and there are really no days to rest.

Alas, I really miss the kind of rice worm life that sleeps until it wakes up naturally! I don't know how long he will have to struggle to live like that without scruples~

It was not a matter to leave more than three hundred taels of silver in his hand like this, and Sun Chen proposed a plan to Yang Shuping when he got up the next day.

"Buying land? This is a good idea~" Yang Shuping nodded and swallowed the pork stuffed bun in his mouth, and took another sip of porridge before continuing, "It's just that I haven't heard of any land to sell during this time, so I can only help you inquire about it at ordinary times." ”

"Even if it's a little farther away, we don't plan to grow our own anyway." Sun Chen finished drinking the porridge in the bowl and handed the bowl to the second girl on the side, "Bring me another bowl!" ”

"Brother, you're already the fourth bowl! I've eaten seven buns, but I can't eat them anymore! Erniu frowned and refused.

"It's Ah Chen, don't break it, keep your stomach and wait until noon to eat!" Yang Shuping followed to help, although Ah Chen slept without eating last night, but the amount of food was a little too scary, right? You must know that the bun made by the second girl is as big as his fist! Usually, Ah Chen has about the same amount of food as himself, but he only ate two steamed buns in the morning and drank a bowl of porridge!

"If you don't eat, you won't eat," Sun Chen put down his chopsticks, "Alas, what a housekeeper!" ”

Of course, the last sentence was muttered in a low voice, he didn't dare to easily offend the only eater at present, his appetite depended entirely on her!

"I know you're muttering bad things about me," Erniu tilted her head to look at him, "It's better not for me to hear what you say, or ......, huh!" ”

The second girl put down the chopsticks vigorously, and the bowls on the table trembled.

"How can it," Sun Chen immediately smiled like a flower, "I just feel that I am really full, fortunately you didn't give me another sheng just now~"

The appearance of the dog's legs made Yang Shu smooth his forehead, is this funny in front of him really his steady and shrewd apprentice on weekdays?

"Master, learn a little, let's call it being able to bend and stretch~" Sun Chen raised his eyebrows and said when Erniu got up to go to the kitchen to brush the dishes and chopsticks, not feeling at all how bad his image was by what he had just done.

Yang Shuping was already powerless to complain, so he could only give him a thumbs up in silence.

……

Leisurely time always flies by, and in a blink of an eye, the fifteenth day of the first lunar month has arrived.

After today, the year is over, and everyone has to end their business and start the new year's efforts.

Two days ago, when Sun Chen took advantage of Gu Songyuan's call to accompany his third uncle to Wanyou Commercial Bank to teach skills, he had already bought the lanterns and red candles to be used in the Shangyuan Festival.

After eating the soft and glutinous Lantern Festival, and lighting red candles with finger thickness and a height of more than six inches on both sides of each door in the small courtyard, Sun Chen and his sister set off with lanterns.

They are going to find the big strong brothers and sisters to join up and rush to the town to make lanterns.

"Ah Chen!" Da Zhuang waved the round red lantern in his hand and shouted loudly.

When Sun Chen got closer, he looked at the marquee in his hand and raised his eyebrows, "Ah Chen, such a big deal?" ”

The production process of the marquee lamp is complex, and the price is naturally high, and the workmanship is generally two or three hundred wen. In the hands of Sun Chen's brothers and sisters, the flowers, birds, fish and insects on them are all depicted vividly, and they are obviously not the cheapest kind.

"Hehe," Sun Chen smiled, "It's only four hundred copper plates~"

Da Zhuang's mouth snorted, "It's worthy of being a person who has made a fortune, four hundred Wen is still 'talent', and the lanterns of Yanzi and I only cost forty copper plates, okay?" ”

The fact that Sun Chen's glove idea was bought out by Wanyou Commercial Bank has not yet been made public, but as Sun Chen's good buddy, Da Zhuang knew about it as early as the day after he got the silver, and he was still angry that Sun Chen and they went to Ruyi Restaurant to eat without calling themselves, and in the end, on the tenth day of the first month, they really went to Ruyi Restaurant to kill him.

"It's a time a year, and it's not like this every day~" Seeing that Erniu was about to reason with herself about the life philosophy of 'trickling water and flowing long', Sun Chen hurriedly moved out of the excuse of 'once a year'. Although this excuse has been used countless times by him throughout the Chinese New Year.

But the second girl really ate his set, and when she heard Sun Chen say this, she immediately stopped squeaking.

"Let's go quickly, or we won't be able to get to town before dark~" Swallow dressed up and urged shyly. In her hand, she held the same round red lantern as Da Zhuang, but the tassels and tassels on it were colored, not like the one in Da Zhuang's hand, all of which were golden. Even the moire decoration on it looks more exquisite.

A few people just talked and laughed and walked on the main road. Along the way, people kept coming in, each carrying lanterns of different colors and shapes.

Walking to the town, it was also getting dark, Sun Chen took out the flint, lit the lanterns of several people, and then walked slowly along the long street.

Walking on the street, looking at the various lanterns and their happy faces illuminated by the various lanterns in the hands of the people around him, Sun Chen suddenly had a desire to go on like this.

Some of the people here are still struggling to make ends meet, and they don't have any extra money to meet their various spiritual needs, and many of them can't even write their names. But these can't stop them from pursuing happiness in the slightest.

Everyone is smiling, everyone is full of hope, and everyone has their own beautiful vision.

They are really much better than the decadent young people they have come into contact with before, who are passable, confused, unable to remember the past, and can't see the future clearly.

In a materialistic society, the increasingly hurried pace of life has made many things no longer as pure as usual. The appearance is as plain as water, but the heart is already numb, and there is a kind of calm, which is actually called a stagnant water breeze.

It turned out that after crossing here, Sun Chen really meant to be a little confused. Although the mix is not so bad, I have never thought about what kind of goal I will have. All my efforts are for the sake of eating and drinking.

But now, he suddenly wondered, what will happen to him in the future? After thinking about it for a long time, he had already walked most of the street, but he still hadn't thought it through.

Yes, whether you want to or not, in your bones, you have always been a 'Adou' with no ambitions. But what does it matter? Even 'Adou' is willing to be the one who has Zhuge Liang's best support, but unfortunately the current situation is that Zhuge Liang is not there!

So what to do? Sun Chen reluctantly said that he has the heart to be 'Adou', but he doesn't have the fate of being 'Adou'!
