I don't know much about this lobby sister Shen Luzhu, and I haven't even seen it, I only know that it is Uncle Chu's second child, who is already married, and it seems that her name is Chu Fang.

"What will happen when my cousin comes to us?"

Chu Yi extinguished the candle on the kang cabinet, lifted the quilt and lay in, stretched out his hand to take his wife into his arms, was silent for a moment, and shook his head: "I don't know, don't think too much, if something really happens, I should come again." ”

This question really asked Chu Yi, he and Chu Fang are four years apart, and they are a boy and a girl, and they didn't play together much when they were children. In the eleventh year of Chu Yi, Chu Fang married to a neighboring village, and then had less contact, and came back two or three times a year, and then Uncle Chu's family was separated, and Chu Fang almost never returned to the old house, to be honest, this cousin, Chu Yi is really not very familiar.

The next day, Uncle Chu's family went back to the old house to accompany Grandpa and Grandma as Chu Yi said. In the middle of the morning, there seemed to be someone outside the hospital, Shen Luzhu thought it was his cousin who had been waiting for them for a long time yesterday, but when he came out, he saw that it was a coachman who had driven an ox cart, saying that he was looking for the daughter and son-in-law of Li Xiucai's family in the town.

The coachman was taken to the hall by Chu Yi, Chu Ren was chatting with his father and grandmother, and his sister-in-law Li was feeding his son Chu Mingxuan and eating egg custard.

Seeing this, the coachman bowed his hand: "Dare to ask which two are Li Xiucai's daughters and sons-in-law?" ”

Hearing this, Chu Ren got up and saluted back: "Li Xiucai is the father-in-law below, may I ask who you are?" ”

"I am the driver in the town, and your mother-in-law asked me to bring a message, saying that your father-in-law Li Xiucai had a drink with someone yesterday, and when he came home at night, he fell unconscious in the alley in front of the door, and was found by a nearby neighbor and sent back, so let you go back quickly!"

"What!" Hearing the bad news, Li stood up suddenly, and the bowl of egg custard in his hand also sprinkled himself!

"Does this big brother know how my father-in-law is doing now?"

"I said that I had invited Langzhong, and the person also woke up, I don't know too much about the specifics, if you go back now, you can just take my ox cart!"

Chu Ren thanked the coachman, asked him to wait in the hall for a while, let them clean up, and then picked up his son on the side, comforted his wife and said: "Father-in-law, the auspicious people have their own natural appearance, the coachman didn't say that the person has woken up, it should be fine, you go and pack up your clothes, let's go back." ”

Only then did Li stabilize his mind a little: "Okay! Her clothes were dirty and she couldn't continue to wear them, and she was in a hurry to go back to the town, so she didn't have time to go back to her in-laws' house to change her own, so she had to ask Shen Luzhu for a favor: "Can my brother and sister lend me a set of clothes?" ”

"Sister-in-law, come with me."

The two came to the East Wing House one after the other, and Shen Luzhu found a new set of his clothes for the Li family.

"Thank you, brother and sister."

Xu was too anxious to rush back to the town, and before Shen Luzhu walked away, Li took off his dirty clothes, and Shen Luzhu couldn't open the door at this time, so he could only stand in the corner with his back and wait.

Li put away the dirty clothes he took off, and called Shen Luzhu: "Brother and sister, I'm fine, thank you." ”

"Sister-in-law doesn't have to be polite...... This is...... This pendant is quite special! As soon as Shen Luzhu turned around, he saw that Li was wearing his new lake blue clothes, with a round pendant with an outer ring inlaid with fine silver on his chest, and a smooth white appearance with some tender yellow in the middle, like an unripe poached egg!

"Oh, this is passed down from my mother-in-law's family back then." Li followed Shen Luzhu's line of sight, looked down, and casually put the pendant into the placket.

"Brother and sister, let's go out."

"Oh, good." Shen Luzhu opened the door and returned to the hall with the Li family, until Chu Ren's family got into the carriage and left the old mansion, and their hearts could not be calm for a long time, although there were some speculations in their hearts before, but now that they are really confirmed, they are still a little unbelievable!

The pendant is exactly what my grandmother said! No! It should be said that it is the same pendant, but why did the pendant for the mother-in-law that should have been buried with him wear it on the body of the sister-in-law in the lobby, and it became the eldest uncle's family!

Chu Ren's family of three went back to the town, and Uncle Chu's family also returned to their yard after lunch.

When there was nothing to do, the Chu family's card game was formed again, and the family gathered around the brazier in the hall, eating snacks and playing cards, which was much more lively than in previous years! was having a lively time, and there was another person in the yard, it was Chu Fang, who had waited for a long time yesterday and had not seen anyone.

"Fang'er, why are you here again today?" Don't blame Grandma Chu for wondering, since the splitter Chu Fang came to the door for the first time yesterday afternoon, it was a rare thing, but I didn't expect it to come again today!

"Grandma, there's nothing wrong with my granddaughter staying at home, come and have a look!"

"Your father, they just left, and Ah Ren's family also went back to town."

Chu Fang and Wang's god-like faces were embarrassed and fleeting: "It's not that Chu Yi didn't come back when he got married, and I didn't see each other yesterday, so I thought I had to see each other!" ”

After saying that, Chu Fang looked around the people in the hall, the only fresh face in the room was the young girl sitting next to Chu Yi, Chu Fang walked straight over, took Shen Luzhu's hand and patted it: "This is my brother and sister." ”

His hand was pulled by Chu Fang, and Shen Luzhu stood up with his strength: "Cousin." ”

"Grandpa and grandma, you go on, don't worry about me." Chu Fang said and looked at Chu Yi: "I'll talk to my cousins and sisters, and go to your house." ”

Shen Luzhu sat on the kang in the east wing room with Chu Fang in a daze, looking at Chu Yi, who was also a little stunned on the chair opposite, and didn't know whether to cry or laugh for a while!

"When you got married, my cousin's house was too busy, so I couldn't come over, you won't blame me!"

"No, cousin."

"No, it's okay, in fact, I've always cared about you, but I can't get rid of my family. My cousin's family is full of croppers, and she points to the output in the field all year round, and this farm work is tiring, and there is nothing left except eating, drinking, and paying taxes! It's not like you, who have a craft and are still doing business, I don't know how much easier this money is than us! I've heard people say that your shop is very prosperous, and people who want to buy paper money have to go out, but it's far away, and I don't have the time to take a look, brother and sister, tell your cousin, is that really the case? ”

"It's all the villagers who are willing to cheer, and it's exaggerated."

"Brother and sister don't need to be modest, look at these decorations in your house, you know that it must be good, you have a good life, I am really happy in my heart! Actually...... I'm here today because I want to discuss something with my cousin. Ayi, my cousin's life is really not good, look at your business of selling paper money, can you let your cousin follow suit? ”

"Stained?"

Seeing that Chu Yi had no expression, as if he was unwilling, Chu Fang hurriedly explained: "Don't worry, it will definitely not affect your business, only sell in our village, if you don't come here, you will still do the business in the mountain village, so don't you have more ways to sell goods...... That is, my cousin really doesn't have enough money now, can you take it back for me and sell it first? Don't worry, when you earn enough money from the stall, I will definitely make up for you with the money you use to burn paper! ”

Cousin Chu Fang is really worthy of being the daughter of the eldest uncle, and this abacus is estimated to be heard by the whole town!

It's because of the excitement before, and there are more people who know about it. Coupled with the unique new style, seven or eight nearby villages came to buy it, and the business was so prosperous. If you open an identical one directly in a neighboring village, wouldn't you just cut your business in half!

What's more, my cousin not only wants half of the transaction directly, but also wants to take half of their business directly on credit and empty-handed!

"I'm afraid it won't work!" Chu Yi refused directly without even thinking about it.

"But do you think the two shops are too close? If you don't want to, then it's okay to change it, I heard that you didn't give the work of making paper money to other families, it's better to help your own family, we can do this too! ”

In fact, Chu Fang had already guessed that Chu Yi would not agree to open a shop again, her real purpose was not actually this, her sister-in-law married next to Zhao Cheng's family, and I heard my sister-in-law go home and say several times, then Zhao Cheng's family has developed in the past half a year, and the New Year's goods are bought in the town by ox cart, and the guy has been unloading the truck for a long time.

also said, isn't it my sister-in-law's mother's family who sells paper money, why don't you promote your own daughter if you have such a good thing!

Doesn't Chu Fang want to follow the light? She thought better than anyone else, as early as the Midyear Festival, she heard that the Chu family's paper money was selling well, she had already gone back to her parents' house, she thought that the old house made money, and Daddy and Auntie must have gained a lot, she went back to cry and cry poor, and she couldn't say that she could also make a profit!

Who would have thought that the shop was actually his cousin Chu Yi's own private work, and grandpa and grandma would have to stand aside, let alone her!

Later, after listening to my sister-in-law's words, I thought again, this kind of money-making work, in fact, is not the same for anyone, since it is all the same, why can't it be her, she is still Chu Yi's cousin!

can be said to be so, Chu Fang also knows that Daddy and Auntie made that family split, I am afraid that Chu Yi and her own family will be completely separated, if she is afraid that it will not be successful, she will think of such a method of retreating as advance, and Chu Yi is embarrassed to refuse himself twice in a row!

"This can't be done, now the supply of three is just right, and there is no need to add another one." Chu Fang thought it was quite beautiful, but Chu Yi not only refused twice in a row, but also refused twice in a row without thinking!

"Brother, someone came to buy a coffin, Grandpa asked you to go out and help load the car!" ("Chu Yi, I'm your cousin......")

Hearing this, Chu Yi got up and followed Chu Li out, and just walked to the middle of the room and turned back to Chu Fang and said, "If my cousin has nothing else to do, let's go see Grandpa and Grandma!" ”

Chu Yi went out on the front foot, Shen Luzhu was about to listen to his father-in-law, and took his cousin back to the hall for a walk, but who knew that the cousin actually pulled her and had something to say!

"Brother and sister, you have only been married into our Chu family for a year, and you still don't know anything about the people and things in the family. Many things are not what they seem, and after a long time, you should be confused! But you can't just ask yourself if a man is not, it's best to have a close person in your in-law's house!

Besides, if this woman is married, she is an outsider, can you still rely on your mother's family for everything here? But you can't be blamed for this, you're still newly married, it's normal to not understand, but I'm a cousin can't just do it and watch you be stupid, I have to teach you.

Let's just say that this is the work of paper money, and you went back to your parents' house yesterday, and you stayed until dark and didn't reply to these two things, do you still think you are a girl from the Shen family? This idea can't be had, now is a short time, Chu Yi is still hot to treat you, after a long time, the left hand touches the right hand, when you are like this, he should have an opinion, and then you have to have someone to talk to you at your mother-in-law's house! ”

"My cousin said so much, does this mean that you want to be my helper in the Chu family?"

"If you don't say that your younger siblings are smart!"

"What do you need me to give? For example, give the paper money work done by your mother's family to your cousin? ”

Chu Fang smiled embarrassedly: "It's not that you want to grab a job with your mother's family, isn't there another Zhao family, Ayi is not related to them, how can his own family be reliable!" You don't need to do anything, just blow the wind with your cousin. ”
