When it was almost nightfall, Yan Huanglou came back.

Since the rebels entered the city, he rarely set up stalls at night, and the lights were blind at night, for fear of being robbed.

After Yan Huanglou went back, he wandered to the kitchen and asked, "Where did the artemisia come from?" ”

"It was sent by Wang Sanniang next door." Chen Changsheng loves both.

Yan Huanglou said after hearing this: "This girl is too polite. ”

He went to the kitchen to stir-fry the artemisia cabbage, and mixed it with the steamed buns earlier for dinner.

Such a meal is already considered extremely luxurious.

"Bang bang."

While he was eating, there was a quick knock on the door.

"Open the door, open the door!"

Seeing this, Yan Huanglou hurriedly hid the bun on the table.

Chen Changsheng was puzzled: "What's the matter?" ”

"I'll talk about it later."

After Yan Huanglou hid the buns, he went to open the door.

There was a person standing at the door, dressed in a black shirt, looking like a bit of a dick.

The man didn't say anything angry, just said: "Lao Huang, this month's regular money should be paid, but this month is more than 20%. ”

"Why is it two percent more?" Yanhuang Corridor.

The man sighed and said, "It always costs some money to fight for territory. ”

Yan Huanglou also sighed helplessly, and said: "It's getting harder and harder to be real, you wait, I'll get it." ”

He went back to the house to get the money, only to find that it was a little worse.

It was enough, but after 20% more, it was not enough.

After Yan Huanglou came back, he said: "There is still half a penny, can you be accommodating?" ”

"It's hard to say."

The man in black shirt said: "It's better not to miss this, maybe it won't be me next time." ”

Chen Changsheng got up and walked over, "What kind of money?" ”

The man in black said, "Who is this?" ”

Yan Huanglou said: "This is Brother Chen, and I am from your own family." ”

"This family."

The man in black clenched his fists and said, "Chen Qian, Qingyutang collects money." ”

"Half a penny?" Chen Changsheng asked.

Chen Qian nodded.

Chen Changsheng took out a grain of broken silver from the money bag, handed it to Chen Qian and said, "It should be enough for half a penny." ”

Chen Qian nodded and said, "That's enough, then I won't bother too much." ”

"Come back to me for something."

After Chen Qian left, Yan Huanglou immediately closed the door.

Chen Changsheng asked, "This person doesn't look like he's here to collect money. ”

Yan Huanglou said: "It's all like this, but if you really can't get the money, you will know how unhuman they are." ”

"That's right."

Chen Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief and said, "But if this continues, you will not be able to pay the money sooner or later." ”

Yan Huanglou breathed a sigh of relief and said: "One step is one step, it's a big deal, just run, I'm afraid you don't know, in two days, there will be the government to collect the money, one on each side, this black and white have to give money, if something really happens, the government is purely to take these example money for nothing, unlike this gang, there is still something to do." ”

"Now that's the case, most people are happy to trust these gangs, not the government."

Chen Changsheng nodded after hearing this, it should be this reason, otherwise this gang will not be able to mix for long.

Yan Huanglou said: "Let's eat vegetables." ”

The two of them sat down and began to eat.

After eating, they sat down and chatted.

After nightfall, Wang Sanniang next door came to the door.

"Uncle Lou."

Yan Huanglou saw it and asked, "Girl, what's the matter?" ”

Wang Sanniang was a little embarrassed, and hesitated for a long time without saying why.

"Borrowed food?"

Yan Huanglou asked.

Wang Sanniang nodded and said, "I didn't have enough money before, so I took some food." ”

"Uncle Lou, just take some wheat bran, and I'll pay you back in a few days."

Yan Huanglou sighed, and then said, "You wait." ”

He turned around and went back to get the grain and gave it to Wang Sanniang.

"I'll pay it back in two days." Wang Sanniang said.

Yan Huanglou waved his hand and said: "What's the matter, it was originally a courtyard, which family is in trouble and which family helps, don't talk about this." ”

Wang Sanniang thanked her and went home with the bag of wheat bran.

After Yan Huanglou came back, Chen Changsheng asked, "What's going on with her face?" ”

"Ugly."

Yan Huanglou said: "Now like this, if a good-looking woman is seen, maybe there will be thieves at night, and there is no way." ”

Chen Changsheng didn't say anything after hearing this, turned around and went back to the house to rest.

Early the next morning, Yan Huanglou went to set up a stall.

Chen Changsheng was idle, so he passed the time by reading and writing in the courtyard.

Wang Sanniang came to knock on the door in the morning, followed by two children, Chen Changsheng recognized Ruyi, but the small male doll in the back was the first time he saw it.

"Brother Chen."

Chen Changsheng asked, "Is there something wrong with Wang Sanniang?" ”

Wang Sanniang said: "Can you bother Brother Chen to look at Ruyi and peace?" ”

Today she also pretended to be ugly, as if she was going to do something.

Chen Changsheng got up and asked, "What are you going to do?" ”

Wang Sanniang sighed and said: "I can't open the pot at home, I plan to go to the street to sell cooking cakes, how much can I earn, Ping An is still too small, Ruyi is also playful, I'm afraid that it will not be good to take them, and I'm worried about being locked up at home, so I ......"

Chen Changsheng's eyes looked at the two children and said, "It's okay, Chen happened to be fine today." ”

"Thank you, Brother Chen."

Wang Sanniang said to the two children.

"Ruyi, Ping'an, call Uncle Chen."

"Uncle Chen." "Uncle Chen."

Chen Changsheng smiled in response.

Wang Sanniang said: "Then it's bothering Brother Chen." ”

"Little things."

Chen Changsheng said again: "You still have to be careful when setting up stalls on the street, you might as well go to Lao Huang's tea stall to set it up, and have a response." ”

"Hmm."

Wang Sanniang told Ruyi and went out with a word of peace.

Chen Changsheng closed the door.

Ruyi sat down, she was timid, sitting in a precarious position holding Ping An with one hand, Ping An was relatively silent, and kept her head down.

Chen Changsheng said: "Don't be so afraid of me. ”

Ruyi shook his head and said, "I'm not afraid, my mother said that grandpa's friends are good people." ”

"Really?"

Chen Changsheng smiled, and then asked, "Your brother's name is Ping'an?" ”

Ruyi said: "Ping An is two years younger than me. ”

"Peace, wish."

Chen Changsheng nodded and said, "It's all good names." ”

Seeing that the two children had nothing to do, he asked, "Are you literate?" ”

Ruyi shook her head.

Chen Changsheng stepped forward and sat down and asked, "How about Chen teaching you to write your own name?" ”

Ruyi was a little curious and asked, "Is Uncle Chen a teacher?" ”

Chen Changsheng shook his head and said, "No." ”

Ruyi didn't seem to understand, she felt that only a teacher would teach literacy.

Ping'an, who was silent on the side, also asked curiously at this time: "What is it, Mr. Teaching?" ”

Ruyi said to him, "It's the one who can teach us how to write." ”

"Oh." Ping An replied and was silent.

Chen Changsheng couldn't help but smile when he saw the two sisters and brothers, and then asked, "Do you want to learn?" ”

Ruyi nodded and said, "Learn." ”

Ping An said: "Sister learns, and I also learn." ”

Chen Changsheng picked up two wooden sticks and taught them to write underground.
