After Black Lotus became a reborn person, he went completely crazy
Chapter 104: The more people lack something, the more they show off it
Their family directly got a job at a coal mine, and moved to the county town where the coal mine was located. They were considered standard coal miners.
Gradually, the relationship with this place was severed. Only the cousins of Chen Changzheng's generation would come back to visit every few years. Their children and women were no longer close to this place.
Every time I come back, I am like a rich relative in the city who occasionally visits a poor relative, always looking superior and criticizing, saying this is not as good as theirs, that is not as good as theirs.
They spoke poor Mandarin, neither Chinese nor foreign, and were particularly tongue-twisting. They walked on tiptoe, for fear of stepping too hard and dirtying the soles of their shoes.
They also said that the roads were full of chicken droppings and that the people here were too unhygienic and untidy. This is totally unfair.
People here value feces more than anything else, so how could they bear to leave feces outside?
When you see your chickens go out, you have to drive them back home immediately. What if they poop outside? What if they lay eggs in someone else's nest?
The villagers drove the animals in front. If the animals dung on the way, they would use iron shovels to catch it directly, put the dung in backpacks and carry it back home for composting.
Sometimes when people want to have a bowel movement outside, most people will try their best to hold it in and run back home, trying not to leave any fertilizer in other people's fields.
Don't these people just think that the people here are poor and can't help them, so they wrongly accuse and look down on others, and they say it in such high-sounding terms.
In the original body's memory, the women like her did not like having these distinguished guests come to visit.
Every time these people come back, they do nothing but want to live in a good place, eat good food, and complain about everything.
When some wealthy relatives came, they at least knew to bring some rare things for the villagers, or some cloth to share.
There are people who dress themselves up with these things, wearing high heels and big curly hair, but they always come empty-handed. Aren't they just coming here to get something for free?
He also has an expression like "I am willing to eat and drink from you because I respect you." Who is he trying to disgust? He looks like he is giving alms, which can make people vomit.
The key is that these grandfathers love to take care of this matter. It's like a cousin who works in another place. After returning, he will go to all the houses like a leader for inspection, looking around, as if he can make himself look good.
The same goes for their cousins. Don’t they have any idea of who they are and how much they weigh?
He only comes back once in several years, and he still pretends to be cool and impressive in front of his fellow villagers. He is just a hard laborer working in the mine, exchanging his life for money. Is it that necessary?
The more a person lacks something, the more he will show it off. I guess he is not having a very happy life over there. Once he comes back here, he will show off his presence to the people here and act like a leader.
Besides, face is worth only a few dollars.
Xia Ran spent the whole afternoon either receiving customers or stewing meat and baking pancakes. The newly built bread cellar was also used for the first time, and the pancakes were delicious.
Xia Ran brushed some egg yolk on the surface of the pancake, and the pancake was golden and delicious. She also washed and cut some coriander for later use.
Some white radish slices were also put into the pot of stewed mutton. It was not even night yet, but Gui Niang, the second son's family, and Jiu Shu's family all came with baskets of vegetables.
Everyone knew that Xia Ran's vegetable garden was basically empty, and the newly planted vegetables could not be eaten yet. Chen Huishi also arrived, carrying half a basket of vegetables.
But he was the only one who came to Chen Huishi's house. Xiao Wu and her mother were too embarrassed to come, so they didn't come. Chen Huishi came mainly because he was greedy.
Plus, she was really thick-skinned, thinking that she had already spent a lot of money on the settlement, so what was wrong with eating a meal at Jianguo? This little woman was amazing, and the meal she cooked was really good and delicious.
Xia Ran helped others exchange some Ma Qian and Yuan Datou before closing the door of the store and preparing to eat. As soon as she entered the inner courtyard, the aroma of mutton filled the air.
Gui Niang had already served the pancakes to everyone and asked them to tear them by themselves. Xia Ran came in and washed her hands, then began to scoop meat for everyone and scoop the broth into the big bowls of torn pancakes.
They said they were eating mutton soup with steamed buns, but in fact they were eating mutton. The mutton soup with steamed buns was just a side dish. Xia Ran took up most of the basin with just the mutton bones. When it was served on the table, everyone only saw the meat and could not see anything else.
I also asked Shitou to peel and mash some garlic in advance for everyone to dip in. I put the coriander aside, and anyone who liked it could add it to their own bowl.
Everyone picked up the meat bones and dipped them in the bowl of mashed garlic. The soft and tender mutton filled their mouths with the aroma of meat, without any smell of mutton.
Everyone buried their heads in the food, and soon the large bowl of meat was empty. After gnawing on the meat bones, everyone washed their hands with soap before starting to eat the steamed buns. This was the kind of life that even a god wouldn't change.
After eating and cleaning up, everyone sat down to chat. The second brother said that he would leave tomorrow because his superiors were urging him no longer.
Tomorrow morning, after he takes the lantern, Xia Ran will need to put it away and take it away by herself for the remaining days. Xia Ran will naturally have no problem with that.
Chen Huishi asked directly: "I heard you are collecting money for hemp? 1 cents each?"
"You have it? Then bring it over. I collected it for others. It's not like gold or silver. It's useless to keep it in our hands."
"Okay, tomorrow night, I'll bring it over. I have quite a bit of that stuff."
"I also collect Yuan Datou. If you are outside, please help me promote it."
Chen Huishi said directly: "Why did you collect that thing? It takes up space." After saying this, he remembered that he had used it to pay off a debt, and he paid it to Jianguo, so he shut up immediately.
"I collected it for others. I don't think it's necessary to collect it. It does take up space."
Chen Huishi said awkwardly: "Okay, I know. I know that there are a few old guys who have it. I'll ask them for you and see if they will exchange it."
Xia Ran advised: "It's worthwhile to sell it now. If you want to build a house, build it now while bricks and tiles are cheap. When the prices of these things go up in the future, you won't be able to afford it even if you earn more money. Build a good house and live in it for decades. It will also be easier for your sons and grandsons to marry in the future."
"You are telling the truth. Bricks and tiles are becoming more expensive every year. The longer you wait, the more expensive it will be."
The second brother continued, "Glass, wood, rafters and purlins are rising every year, as are cement and steel bars. If you want to build a house, you really have to do it early. Are you sure you won't lose money if you buy them? If not, I'll keep an eye on them later to see if I can help you buy some back."
"I can't compensate you, because there are people backing me up. It's just a matter of how much you can earn. If you collect a large amount and the money is not enough, send a telegram back and I will wire you the money."
"it is good."
