A poor hero

Chen Chen and Shen Qian wanted to save time because they had to hurry.

So the two of them didn't look around like they did when they were shopping yesterday.

Soon, they arrived at the meeting point for the bullock carts to Dongzhen.

There are already several people waiting here.

The driver of the cattle cart is a middle-aged man, but he is not as talkative as Zhao Laoqi.

He stood quietly next to the buffalo and fed it dry food.

"Hello, uncle, is this car going to Dongzhen?"

Chen Chen lowered his head and asked politely.

The middle-aged man nodded and raised two fingers.

Then when he saw Chen Chen and Shen Qian together, he raised four fingers again.

It's really a boring gourd.

"Uncle, four copper coins, car money for the two of us."

Chen Chen took out a few copper coins from his purse, counted four, and handed them to the dull gourd.

After yesterday's lesson, Chen Chen learned wisely this time. He only took out ten yuan and put it in his wallet.

The rest of the copper coins were hidden under the bamboo pole.

The dull gourd looked at it and put the copper coins into his purse.

But he didn't respond to Chen Chen and still took care of his big buffalo.

It was not time to set off yet, so Chen Chen and Shen Qian also walked to a shady place to wait for departure.

"Chen Chen, can we go to my house this time? I haven't been home for a long time."

Shen Qian raised her head, looked at Chen Chen, and asked pitifully.

When Shen Qian was eight years old, her father sent her to Master Xu's house as a servant.

Although there was a holiday at the end of every year, her father only wanted money and left without saying a word to her.

Now, Shen Qian is 13 years old, and she has not been home for five years.

She misses her mother and brother very much.

As Shen Qian spoke, her nose became sore and tears were about to flow down again.

"Okay, little guy, let's go to your house and see your mother."

Chen Chen nodded and comforted.

Only then did Shen Qian calm down.

Other people waiting to take the bus saw Chen Chen carrying so many things and walked towards the two of them.

The cheerful person even asked in a familiar manner, "Young man, how much does this fine silk cloth cost? It's so beautiful."

"Mom, this cloth was given by my friend. I don't know how much it costs."

Chen Chen replied with a wry smile.

The aunt raised her hand, wanting to take a look at Chen Chen's fine silk cloth, "Young man, can I have a look at this cloth?"

Chen Chen put several large copper coins in it.

So he shook his head and refused: "Mom, I'm sorry, this is a bit inconvenient, I have already put it away."

"It's okay, just let me put it away for you later."

The aunt still didn't give up, she stretched out her hand and wanted to take it.

Chen Chen took the first step and pulled the bamboo pole over, causing the lady to miss.

He scolded seriously: "Mom, this is really inconvenient. Please don't take it anymore."

The aunt's face suddenly became extremely ugly when she was scolded by Chen Chen, "Humph, if you don't want to see it, don't see it. What's so great about it, it's not like you haven't seen it before."

She rolled her eyes at Chen Chen, snorted coldly, and walked back to where she was just now.

After a while, another person came in a car.

It's time to depart.

So Meng Gourd hooked up the ox cart and asked everyone to sit up.

Although this boring gourd doesn't like to talk, he can drive the bullock cart very well.

Chen Chen and Shen Qian sat on it, not feeling much bumps.

The scenery along the way was still so beautiful, but Chen Chen didn't get a good rest last night and was in no mood to appreciate it.

On the contrary, Shen Qian was extremely excited at the thought of going home.

When the ox cart had walked for a while, Chen Chen couldn't stand it any longer.

He told Shen Qian to watch her back, and he fell asleep leaning against Shen Qian.

Maybe Chen Chen was too tired, so he fell asleep immediately.

And started a sweet dream.

He dreamed that he successfully trial-produced white sugar and made a lot of money.

He used the money to build a large house with three bedrooms, and then Badi Bridge married Shen Qian.

The two lived a good life sweetly.

"Mom, don't touch our things."

"What an amazing little girl, look what happened? Can it be broken?"

"If Chen Chen says you can't read it, you are not allowed to read it. No matter what you say, you are not allowed to read it."

"I'm about to take a look, what can you do to me?"

Just when he was enjoying his sweet life, he was woken up by the sound of quarrel.

He opened his eyes and looked.

Shen Qian's brows were furrowed, her lower lip was biting, and her eyes were fixed on the lady who was looking at the fabric before.

"Little guy, what's wrong? Who did something to you?"

Chen Chen saw Shen Qian's angry face and asked.

Shen Qian saw Chen Chen wake up and breathed a sigh of relief, "Chen Chen, this lady just now insisted on looking at our things again."

Chen Chen raised his eyebrows and stared at the aunt, his voice as cold as ice, "Auntie, I just told you that it's inconvenient, but you still touch my things, are you looking for scolding?"

The aunt knew that it was unreasonable, so she looked away and did not dare to look at Chen Chen.

But she still whispered in a low voice: "Isn't it just a look? I can't eat from you, is it worth this?"

"Everyone has their own privacy. If I say I won't let you see it, I won't let you see it."

"What would you do if someone insisted on seeing you without clothes? Wouldn't you be angry?"

When Chen Chen heard this, he became even more angry, and he gritted his teeth.

The aunt was so embarrassed that her face turned green and white, and she couldn't say a word for a long time.

Shen Qian pulled Chen Chen's clothes and whispered: "Chen Chen, this is a bit much."

In fact, this was not a matter of privacy for Chen Chen, but because there was money hidden on the cloth.

There are more bandits on this country road.

There are still officers and soldiers in the city who are intimidated, but on a mountain road like this, if you are robbed, you don’t know who to look for.

Chen Chen thought for a while and felt that what he just said was a bit too much.

So he lowered his head and apologized: "Mom, I know I went too far. I'm sorry, but please don't touch my back again."

The aunt came down the stairs and her complexion became a little better.

She sat quietly on the bullock cart, saying nothing, and not daring to touch Chen Chen's back.

Being disturbed by this aunt, Chen Chen couldn't sleep either.

So he sat quietly on the bullock cart and admired the beautiful scenery on the road.

This road is not the same as the one Chen Chen took to the county seat yesterday.

But there are still many pear trees planted on the mountains on both sides.

The pear tree is full of pear blossoms, which bloom with their own snow-white petals, like shy girls.

The wind blows.

The faint fragrance of pear blossoms drifted into Chen Chen's nose, making him intoxicated by the beautiful scenery.

Soon, the ox cart arrived at Dongzhen.

Menghulu greeted everyone to get out of the car, unloaded the car, and fed the big buffalo.

Returning to Dongzhendongcun again, both of them had a different feeling.

When Shen Qian came back here, the coke was broken, and she pulled Chen Chen to run and jump.

"Okay, Shen Qian, let's buy some things and head to your house now."

Chen Chen pulled Shen Qian and said with a smile.
