Chapter 009: Building a house is on the agenda
Chu Xuan's eyes were red, in this era, everyone's life is tight, but Grandma Gao's family always helps her selflessly.
Quickly took out fifty yuan from the two hundred yuan and stuffed it back into Gao Meijuan's hand, "Grandma Gao, the mackerel tail has already been given to you, it belongs to your family, this fifty yuan is what you deserve, you must accept it, otherwise I will send back the pots and pans, grain lard, and the like you gave me." Over the years, your family has helped me and my little brother more than that. ”
Gao Meijuan had pity in her eyes, "It's not easy for you and your brother to depend on each other." My family always remembers your mother's kindness to save my little daughter, and it's not too many times to help you! I won't ask for these fifty dollars! When you have a better wedding day in the future, just come back to see me and your grandfather Wang a few times. By the way, your grandfather Wang will handle the matter of household registration. ”
Wang Desin walked into the hall and also expressed his attitude and resolutely did not want to.
Chu Xuan couldn't resist them, so he had to give up giving money, but he thought in his heart that he would honor them well in the future.
Wang Desin took the opportunity to convey Tian Xiaoyun's words on the phone to her.
After she was silent for a moment, she asked Wang Desin for Tian Xiaoyun's contact information.
Wang Desin looked relieved, and the day when their mother and daughter untied their knots was not far away.
More than twenty minutes later, the Chu Xuan sisters and brothers returned to their residence.
Chu Feng closed the door bolt of the courtyard door, with a worried face, "Sister, after dawn, grandma and second uncle won't retaliate against us, right?" ”
Chu Xuan couldn't help but sigh, the younger brother was raised by Feng Chunhua to be cowardly, and he didn't dare to say anything in the face of the Chu family just now, it seems that he really has to educate well in the future.
"Xiaofeng, do you know what it means to use strength? What is the strength of everything that can be united? ”
Patience teaches little by little.
Chu Feng was reminded like this, and instantly figured out something, "Sister, I understand!" If my grandmother and second uncle come to the door, I can move the village chief out of the house and the debt we owe to the one-eyed dragon. ”
Chu Xuan nodded with satisfaction, "The son can be taught!" Come on! Wash up. Get some sleep. When you wake up, I'll take you to the county seat to buy supplies. Rushed back before half past five in the afternoon to continue catching the sea. When the time comes, it will be said to the outside world that the arrears of 100 yuan for this month have been paid off. ”
Chu Feng happily turned around three times on the spot, "It's great to be able to go to the county seat!" By the way, what you said earlier about remittances ......"
"Grandpa Wang told me that he will definitely be able to arrive in these two days." Chu Xuan gently rubbed Chu Feng's head, "You are a little short, you will be allowed to eat meat every day in the future, make up for your body, and grow a big one meter eight in the future!" ”
Chu Feng clenched his fists, "Hmm! I must grow taller, and I will no longer be afraid of Chu Zhi when the time comes, and I can protect you! ”
At half past nine in the morning, Chu Xuan woke up.
I touched the money in my personal pocket and got up to wash.
Baked mixed flour cakes and boiled thin noodle soup with green vegetables.
Tell the little brother to get up and eat.
The first thing Chu Feng said when he saw Chu Xuan was, "Sister, the money is ...... back"
Without waiting for him to finish, Chu Xuan responded with a smile, "Yes." Rest assured! ”
I looked at my little brother's face, and the swelling has subsided.
After eating, they were just about to go out when Gao Meijuan knocked on the door and came in.
The wind and fire sent the household registration book to Chu Xuan's hands, and Chu Xuan left in a hurry before he could say thank you.
After seeing Grandma Gao leave, Chu Xuan patted the household registration book, "This household registration is too timely!" After a while, I will take a carriage to the post office in the town, maybe our mother's remittance order has arrived. ”
Chu Feng looked disgusted, "Even if Tian Xiaoyun sends us money, I won't forgive her!" ”
Chu Xuan slapped him on the shoulder, "That's our own mother!" Don't call them by their first names! When she left, she should have had a last resort. You can't spend her money, and count her down. ”
Chu Feng was a little unconvinced.
Chu Xuan didn't bother to explain again.
I went to the village entrance to wait for the carriage, and the journey went smoothly, and when I arrived at the town post office, there was really a remittance slip sent by my mother, 300 yuan.
After Chu Xuan took out the household registration book to collect it, he called his mother.
Tian Xiaoyun's voice came from the other end of the phone, "Hey......"
Chu Xuan's nose was sour, "Mom, it's me." ”
This long-lost mother shouted Tian Xiaoyun excitedly, "Hey! Good boy! ”
"Mom, thank you for sending money to me and Xiaofeng, I earned some money, and I want to borrow the money in your name to build a new house......"
Chu Xuan said what he thought in his heart, Tian Xiaoyun said again and again that there was no problem, and said that he would go back to see them when he was free, and explain the reason for leaving in person.
During this period, Chu Feng didn't say anything.
After hanging up the phone, they took a bus to the county seat.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, the Chu Xuan sisters and brothers returned to the village with a big bag and a small Tiliu.
On the way home, it attracted a lot of attention.
People who like gossip asked, "Chu Xuan, have you made a fortune?" ”
Chu Xuan was straightforward, "My own mother sent me money, and this month's arrears can not only be repaid, but also repair the old mansion and build a new house." ”
The news spread quickly throughout the village.
Go home and sort what you bought.
There are bamboo baskets, large wooden basins, cloth, fatty pork, pork bones, malt cream, new shoes, mats, iron buckets, iron tongs, iron pots, white noodles, cornmeal, sweet potato noodles, salt, soy sauce and vinegar cooking wine......
Today's low tide is around half past five, and there is still more than an hour.
When they were in the county seat, they ate steamed buns and wontons, and they would not be hungry.
Chu Xuan used a bamboo basket to carry a three-pound pork belly, covered it with a bamboo basket cover, and went straight to Gao Meijuan's house, she wanted to repair the old house, and also replace the land to build a new house.
Chu Feng didn't follow, and stayed at home to make a fire and cook pork bones......
Gao Meijuan heard Xuan's intention clearly, and took this matter without saying a word.
Chu Xuan took out a stack of money, two thousand yuan and two hundred yuan, and put it in Gao Meijuan's hand, "Grandma Gao, this money was remitted by my mother, please help me keep it, the old mansion is dilapidated, and I can't stop the thief." ”
Gao Meijuan immediately took on the responsibility of managing the money, "With this money, it is no problem to build two spacious brick houses and repair the old house." When your grandfather Wang comes back in the evening, I will ask him to contact the construction team. ”
Chu Xuan hugged Gao Meijuan gratefully, "Thank you, Grandma Gao!" ”
Being hugged by Chu Xuan like this, Gao Meijuan couldn't help crying, "You kid, you make me cry with joy." ”
The two chatted for a while, and Chu Xuan was about to leave.
Just as the steamed buns came out of the pot, Gao Meijuan left the pork belly and returned six large steamed buns.
I plan to send the cheese patty to Chu Xuan tomorrow.
Chu Xuan returned home, and the fragrant bone broth came out of the pot.
The sisters and brothers each have three large steamed buns, and then drink a bowl of pork rib soup, beautiful! It's a life that I couldn't have imagined before.
One with an iron bucket, the other with a wooden bucket, took other sea-catching tools and went out.
When he arrived on the beach, Chu Feng went straight to the place where the mackerel king appeared yesterday, and several people also ran over.
Chu Xuan didn't follow, but went in another direction.
Whether you can pick up good goods today depends on luck.
Wherever the tide recedes, she follows.
Suddenly, I saw a fish about five or six pounds.
The head is long, the snout is short and round and blunt, the mouth is large, and the teeth are small. The eyes are small, the nostrils are two pairs, the body color is grayish-black, and there are irregular black patches on the sides of the body, which is a mullet.
Not only can you live in the river, but you can also live in the sea.
Although the fish was stranded, it could survive a day or two out of the water, and its tail moved a few times from time to time.
Chu Xuan glanced at the figure of a woman rushing over, this is to grab a fish?
