Chapter Ninety-Five: The world is bustling, and it is all for profit
After cleaning the shop, on the day of the reopening, Chu Yi and Chu Ping also deliberately put firecrackers in front of the door, first, to make an auspicious picture, and secondly, to let the nearby villagers know that the Chu family's paper money shop has reopened.
Seeing that it was already the middle of the lunar month, it was the time for each family to buy paper money before the Chinese New Year, as soon as Shen Luzhu's shop opened, it saved the villagers from running to the town to buy it with the road fee, and the business was much more prosperous than expected for a while.
It's just that from time to time, there are always people who come to buy goods, looking at themselves with a very inquisitive, and talkative look, Shen Luzhu at first just thought that everyone knew that they had entered the county government prison, and saw a novelty, so he ignored it, knowing that the fat aunt who had not seen him for a long time came to buy paper money, only to know that it was not like that at all!
Shen Luzhu saw that the fat aunt had finished buying the paper money, and he hesitated not to leave, guessing that she might have something to say: "Fat aunt, but what else is the matter, you can just say it, and there are no outsiders here." ”
The fat aunt took a few steps forward, leaned in front of Shen Luzhu and asked in a whisper, "Auntie, I don't have anything to do, I just heard a few gossip." I heard that the government has stopped your shop and won't let you do this business anymore, but you ...... It doesn't look like it! ”
Shen Luzhu was stunned for a moment, and then thought of a person, and estimated that except for that person, these words would not come out of the mouth of the second person: "Of course it hasn't been stopped, if it's really like the rumors, how dare we continue to buy goods so blatantly?" I'm not afraid of being beheaded! The county magistrate just said that it was best not to sell the silver ticket paper money in the future, so as to save any trouble in case of any other paper money, but he never mentioned it! Where did you hear this from my aunt, could it be my mother's side of Hexi Village? ”
Shen Luzhu's words were really a little surprising to the fat aunt, and she felt that there must be something she didn't know, so she hurriedly stepped forward again: "I'll just say, you little couple are the kind of people who are bold and want money and don't want their lives!" But don't say it, it's true, I heard about it from Hexi Village, not only me, but also many people, how do you know about the daughter-in-law of the Chu family? Someone told you about it? ”
Shen Luzhu shook his head and said mysteriously: "Auntie, no one told me, I guessed it myself!" ”
"How did you guess? Is there anything else going on here? ”
Shen Luzhu also followed the example of the fat aunt, leaned forward, and muttered mysteriously: "Auntie, not only can I guess that it came from Hexi Village, but I can also guess who came from it!" ”
"Who? Who is it? ”
"I guess it's the aunt of the Tang family!"
"The Tang family? Which Tang family ...... Yes! Could it be the Tang family who kissed Chu Pingding next door to you a few days ago! ”
"That's her!"
"How do you know it's her? Didn't they all quit their relatives, and besides, it's from the yard next door, why is she idle to spread your family's nonsense? ”
"Auntie, you should have heard, Chu Yi and I were just taken away on the front foot, and the aunt of the Tang family ran to the house to withdraw from the family, I guess I may be afraid of being implicated by us, this is understandable......
The fat aunt interrupted Shen Luzhu's words disapprovingly: "The Tang family made such a big move that day, why haven't I heard of this matter that it is so popular, if you want me to see, it may be possible to be afraid of being implicated, but it is definitely not all because of this, who doesn't know that the cousin next door is a distant cousin with you, no matter how it is, it is impossible to get involved over there, I think it is a little bit of something else!" ”
"We don't know about this, but what's even more strange is that the aunt of the Tang family actually came to the door again two days ago, and she was still planning to re-marry the two families!"
The fat aunt looked at Shen Luzhu with a shocked face, and couldn't believe it: "What? Re-married! I'm afraid there is something wrong with the Tang family's brain, how can there be a fixed retreat, and a retreat will be set again! Does this make people know that it is impossible to say that his daughter can't get married? Besides, even if his family can't get married, it's not that we can't get married, so why do we have to be with his daughter! ”
"Auntie is right! This thing is really ridiculous, and then on the day the Tang family has to withdraw from the family, no matter how you say it, it really chills our hearts, my cousin naturally can't agree, but the aunt of the Tang family doesn't know what kind of ecstasy she has taken until she dies, so she has to get married, no matter how you say it! ”
"What are you doing here, why are you still relying on your house?"
"I don't think it's a way to be stiff like this, I'm persuading my aunt, but the aunt of the Tang family saw the silver tickets and paper money that was about to be lost on the ground, and asked a few words, knowing that this was not allowed to be sold, she turned around and left without saying a word, and she couldn't shout back! Only the family knows about this except her, so as soon as you say it, I guessed that it was her, but I really don't understand, what is this person trying to do? ”
The fat aunt frowned and pondered for a while, patted her thigh and said, "I know!" She was very interested in your family's silver at the beginning, and felt that the next door and your family must be able to get the light, so she was so active in looking for a matchmaker to come to the door, so as soon as you had an accident, she immediately ran over to withdraw from her relatives, and when she heard that you were fine, she ran over to think about it again! Really, what kind of aunt is this, she is blind to her daughter! I think maybe I didn't get my wish this time, and I was not in a good mood, so I deliberately said it out to smear your family! This person is really lacking in virtue, and he really became a family member with her! ”
"No, if it's really like what my aunt said, then I'm really glad that this marriage didn't happen!"
"Who said it wasn't, this time it's okay, fat aunt, I know what's going on, I'll tell everyone when I go back, your family is open to the door open, it's a serious business, don't listen to those nonsense who lack morality!" The fat aunt patted her chest and promised.
"Then I'll thank the fat aunt for being here!"
"What are you being polite to your aunt!"
The fat aunt's mouth and appeal in the village are not blown, and before it has been two days, the wind direction in the village has completely changed.
Mother Tang has been feeling that she seems to be being pointed at for the past two days, but she doesn't know why, until this day, Father Tang angrily pushed open the door of the house, and he wanted to teach himself a lesson!
"Lao Tzu was really blind at the beginning, so he married your mother-in-law, and if you love to be greedy for a little cheap on weekdays, the family doesn't care about you, but you actually embarrassed me and threw it to another village! Yuzhen is such a lady as you, it has really been eight lifetimes of blood mold! ”
Tang's father picked up the broom on the side and threw it at Tang's mother, in the past, other people in the Tang family had already come out to stop it, but now not only did no one stop it, but the grandfather and grandmother of the Tang family even wanted to do it for their son!
Since then, the Tang family has really been jumping for a while because of this incident.
The eldest aunt Wang also heard some gossip in the village, and she didn't know which sentence was true and which was false, but she didn't have the patience to wait for her son to come back, so she ran back to the old house again, wanting to get a quasi-letter.
"Auntie, what's going on with our shop? What the hell did the government say, can we continue to sell paper money? This village will say this for a while, and then say that for a while, it really confuses me! ”
Grandma Chu put down the clothes that had just been mended in her hand and glanced at Wang: "Tell me about you, such an old person, you don't have any backbone, and listening to the wind and rain all day long!" If the government really stopped everything, would they dare to continue to sell like this? I'm tired of living! ”
Hearing that the shop could continue to make money, the Wang family was relieved, patronizing and happy, how could he pay attention to what Grandma Chu had just said about herself: "Auntie, then what we said before, have you thought about it with Daddy?" ”
"I'll think about it again with your father."
In fact, Grandpa Chu and Grandma Chu had already acquiesced before, and Uncle Chu's family returned to the old house, but recently the Tang family has gone back on its word, and it has been rumored to be evil in the village, and the matter of the family's previous separation has been pointed at by the village for a long time.
When Wang heard this, he couldn't help but be a little anxious: "What else do you want, Auntie, how long have we been discussing, this is all about to celebrate the New Year, a bunch of big and small things, put them together as soon as possible, isn't it good to have a lively New Year?" ”
"Isn't it up to me to think about it with the old man? It's almost the New Year, didn't you say that there are a lot of things, so let's talk about it after the year! ”
"Don't, A-Niang, wait for the next year...... Isn't that too long! ”
"If you want to go home if you have nothing to do, I'm still working, I don't have time to talk to you here!" After Grandma Chu finished speaking, she left the hall and no longer paid attention to the Wang family, mainly because of this, she couldn't be the master, she still had to listen to her old man.
When the Wang family returned home, he learned from Uncle Chu about today: "What do you say about Daddy and Auntie, I obviously feel that I have to agree before, why do you have to think about it?" He also said that he would wait until after the year! ”
Uncle Chu was a little irritable after hearing the news, and blamed the Wang family for not stopping Chu Ren, and ran back to the old mansion by himself: "Then Ah Ren has told me what's wrong, why can't you stop waiting for him to come back, you have to go to the old mansion by yourself, now it's okay, my father and mother don't agree again!" ”
"What kind of are you talking about? The disagreement between the two elders depends on me! Why did I go back and ask, you don't know what's wrong? Then if the real shop is stopped by the government and not allowed to be sold, let's go back to the old house to have a fart? When Ah Ren left, there was no such thing, let you go back and ask if you don't go back, I went back and asked it was my fault, what kind of life did I have, a man like you with such a bag! ”
Seeing that Wang's voice was getting louder and louder, Uncle Chu hurriedly said, "Okay, okay, what are you yelling about?" Let outsiders hear, and when you look back, you don't know what to say! Anyway, it's like this, so let's wait for my son to come home. ”
On the twentieth day of the lunar month, before the young age, Chu Ren finally moved back from the town completely, listened to the words of Uncle Chu and Wang, pondered for a while, and asked his wife Li to go out to buy two knives of meat and come back, and then the whole family went to the Chu family's old house together.
This is the first time Chu Ren has returned to the old house since he began to lobby Grandpa Chu and Grandma to return to the old house, and he didn't plan to say anything to Grandpa and Grandma, just waiting for his father and mother to say it, and it would be good for him to show his face at the end, but it seems that it is not possible to show up now!
Sure enough, with Chu Ren's status in the hearts of Grandpa Chu and Grandma, this matter was undoubtedly confirmed, and now they are just waiting for the old couple to talk to Uncle Chu and Chu Yi about it.
At dinner, Grandpa Chu spoke directly: "On the day of the New Year, the eldest family also came back for dinner, and I just had something serious to tell a few of you, so let's all go together!"
