0011 The hope of the Su family
Chen Xiuhua dragged Su Meng away quickly, chattering non-stop, for fear that she would spend money indiscriminately.
Su Meng rolled her eyes speechlessly, she didn't know where Chen Xiuhua's confidence came from, so she felt that she had money to spend it indiscriminately.
Three generations of poor peasants in the old Chen family, she has grown up so big, she has never even seen what the New Year's money looks like.
Pocket money? What is that?
Has she seen it?
So, why does Chen Xiuhua always think she will spend money indiscriminately?
Su Meng was dragged away by her, but she didn't resist.
She looked curiously at the stalls on both sides of the street, wanting to see what they were selling.
After looking at it all the way, she found that most of them were selling some ordinary vegetables.
It looks like it should have been grown at home.
There are also a few that sell herbal roots, as well as wild mushrooms.
She secretly pricked up her ears and listened to others asking for prices, and found that the prices were quite cheap.
After all, it's still 1999, and it's just a small town, and people earn very little, so naturally the level of consumption is very low, and the prices are far less terrible than in later generations.
Any vegetable is often several dollars a catty.
Now that the New Year has just ended, there are not many vegetables, so the ones sold are already relatively expensive, but they are only a few cents a pound, and the expensive ones are only about a piece.
Pork is also very cheap, and the ribs are only a few dollars a catty. Unlike later generations, a pound of pork ribs costs twenty or thirty yuan.
It's a pity that even if it's cheap, she can't afford it now.
Su Meng listened with her ears pricked up for a while, and she had a good idea of the current prices, and began to think about making money.
If you can find a big boss to sell the orchid, of course, it will be the fastest to make money.
But the probability of this kind of thing is too small, in this small place, except for Chu Mo, who has a one-sided relationship, Su Meng really can't find any other wrongdoers.
You can only think about it.
If you really want to make money safely, you still have to rely on other methods.
Su Meng looked at those mushrooms and was a little moved.
The price of wild mushrooms is still very good, but this thing depends on the timing, and it is not possible to find it every day.
If only she could grow mushrooms and vegetables in the space......
Su Meng was thrilled when she thought of this possibility.
She decided, go back and try.
She didn't say anything about this, Chen Xiuhua saw her and looked at it, but she was too curious, and couldn't help but count her down a few words.
Su Meng went in and out of her left ear and out of her right ear, but she didn't hear it.
Su Wenqiang quickly finished shopping and bought a bag of local oranges.
This orange is small, has many seeds, is not sweet enough, and the price is the cheapest.
Su Wenqiang was going to go to his brother's house, and it didn't look good if he didn't buy something. But he couldn't afford it when it was too expensive, so he bought such a bag of oranges to meet the occasion.
Seeing this, Su Meng shook her head helplessly.
This kind of orange, the locals are probably tired of eating it, so it is strange that Su Laosi's family is not disliked.
It's better to grit your teeth and buy something delicious, then you have the heart.
But she didn't say anything.
She is too young now, and "adults" like Su Wenqiang and Chen Xiuhua will not listen to her as a "child" at all, but will think that she is a waste of money.
Besides, Su Wenqiang's oranges have been bought, and it is impossible to return them.
Su Wenqiang carried the oranges, took Chen Xiuhua and Su Meng, and looked for them according to the address Su Laohan said.
Because it takes a bit of time to find it slowly.
It took them more than twenty minutes to find their place.
Su Fenqiang lives in an old tube building.
The small building is very simple, not even the tiles have been pasted, the exterior walls have not been scraped, and the red bricks are directly exposed outside.
The aisle is very narrow, and there are a lot of clutter piled up, which looks messy.
But even so, it is still a building, much better than the Su family's mud-walled thatched house.
Su Wenqiang walked at the forefront, and after finding the house number, he knocked on the door.
Soon a young woman's voice came from the room: "Who? ”
Su Wenqiang suddenly didn't know how to answer, and was stunned for a while before he said crampedly: "I...... I'm the fourth eldest brother, come and see him. ”
The woman opened the door and glanced at Su Wenqiang vigilantly, her eyes were still a little picky, and her eyes were shrewd.
She wore makeup on her face, dyed her hair yellow, permed her curly hair, and looked fashionable in a tweed coat.
Su Meng looked at her quietly, and quickly remembered her identity - Su Laosi's daughter-in-law, Du Chunli.
On the way here, Su Meng didn't think that there was such a person as Du Chunli.
When I see her now, I think of it all.
……
The fourth elder of the Su family is called Su Fenqiang, who is the most educated of the four brothers of the Su family, and is also recognized as the most promising.
In an era when many people didn't even finish junior high school, he graduated from high school, which was really amazing.
It's a pity that I didn't get to college in the end.
It was much more difficult for him to go to college at that time than it was in later life.
Despite this, Su Fenqiang is also the pride of the entire Su family.
Not only does Su Laohan often show off this promising son to others, but Su Wenqiang and Su Wuqiang are also quite proud of this younger brother.
It's a pity that I'm blind.
Su Fenqiang doesn't look down on the rest of the Su family, especially after marrying a powerful daughter-in-law like Du Chunli.
All day long, he wished that he himself was jumping out of the stones, and there were no poor relatives of the Su family.
Su Wenqiang just came to the door with a bag of fruits, and Du Chunli didn't know how to respond.
She never disdained to hide her attitude in front of the Su family, and she would accept it later.
Sure enough, after Du Chunli glanced at them critically, her eyes became disdainful.
She took the fruit from Su Wenqiang's hand and didn't let them in, but shirked and said, "Fenqiang is not at home today, come back next time." ”
This is a direct drive away.
Su Wenqiang's face suddenly became very unsightly.
Chen Xiuhua was also dumbfounded, so embarrassed that she couldn't wait to find a place to get in.
At this moment, a man's voice came from the house: "Xiaoli, who is here?" ”
Du Chunli: "......"
Her expression quickly distorted for a moment, then quickly returned to normal, and said as if nothing had happened, "Huh? He's at home, I thought he was out. ”
Su Wenqiang: "......"
Chen Xiuhua: "......"
At this time, Su Fenqiang walked out and saw Su Wenqiang and the others, and he was also stunned: "Big brother, why are you here?" Who are they? ”
Su Wenqiang immediately introduced: "They are your sister-in-law, and your sister-in-law's daughter Xiaomeng." ”
Listening to what else was said, he directly named Su Meng's identity.
Su Meng didn't care either.
Su Wenqiang didn't treat her as his own daughter, and she didn't plan to treat Su Wenqiang as his father and filial piety.
Say whatever he likes.
When Su Fenqiang heard this, he immediately remembered Su Laohan's complaint.
He glanced at Chen Xiuhua and Su Meng, and saw that Su Meng looked very cute, but he felt a little less repulsive in his heart, and he liked it a little.
