Farmer's Notes from Another World

Chapter 39 Introduction

Fang Zeng has known shopkeeper Chen for many years, so he still knows his family background to some extent.There are only two brothers in the shopkeeper Chen's family, he and his elder brother. When he was young, his family was an ordinary farmer in Chenjia Village.Back then, when the imperial court conscripted soldiers, his brother went to replace the family.However, his brother's luck was better than that of Liu Ah's husband. Not only did he come back alive, but he also made a contribution and was assigned to the Yamen as a catcher.

Afterwards, he gradually became a head-hunter, and the shopkeeper Chen also worked hard, and used the money his brother gave him to build a small restaurant, which gradually became the largest restaurant in the town.And the biggest backer of the Chen family is not the elder brother of shopkeeper Chen, but his elder brother's son Chen Yan.

So, after listening to shopkeeper Chen's introduction, Fang Zeng immediately knew that the nanny in front of him really had a lot of background.However, he didn't ask for anything from others, so after knowing Nanny Chen's identity, he rushed to curry favor, but greeted and called someone in a neither humble nor overbearing manner.

Nanny Chen asked Fang Zeng a few more words, then said a few words to Shopkeeper Chen, and left.Fang Zeng was a little confused when he stayed behind, and waited for Nanny Chen to leave. Fang Zeng immediately asked shopkeeper Chen: "Brother Chen, what is Mrs. Chen asking me for? I, a country guy, don't get along with him. Come here." As soon as it came out, it made my heart go up and down. Brother Chen, Chen Fulang is your elder brother, you must know what it means. Tell me about it."

Shopkeeper Chen looked at Fang Zeng and smiled without saying a word, until Fang Zeng couldn't sit still, then he smiled and said: "You old boy, you are really lucky. Seeing that you are not married in your twenties, you are not married. Waiting for a good one. As the saying goes, you are not afraid of being late for a good meal, you are so lucky."

Fang Zeng became more and more confused the more he listened, but he also knew that this was to propose a kiss to him.He thought in his heart, if he can bother Chen Fulang to marry him, the family must be good, and he doesn't know how he is?But if such a brother from his natal family treats his nephew badly, he can't help it.

Thinking of this, Fang Zeng lost his joy, and said to shopkeeper Chen: "Brother Chen, you also know that my nephew is just like my own son. The first rule of my marriage is not to treat him poorly. This Can the brothers in the town accommodate my nephew, not to mention anything else? If not, I won’t even want a fairy.”

Shopkeeper Chen laughed and said, "You silly brother, how can I not know you? And that kid Huzi, he looks clever and filial. Since I want to marry you, it's all agreed in advance. I Grandma and the others said, you can take care of your nephew and treat your nephew well.

Fang Zeng heard shopkeeper Chen's promise not to blame his nephew, and he felt a little fondness in his heart.However, after a long time, he still hasn't asked whose brother this is.So, Fang Zeng asked: "Brother Chen, which brother are you talking about? Brother, I, brother, you also know that I don't ask for anything else from my brother, as long as people are good to Tiger Good boy, just live with me wholeheartedly."

Shopkeeper Chen pulled Fang Zeng into the room, and said to Fang Zeng in detail: "Brother Fang, the person I introduced to you is not someone else, but just my brother's brother. Not bad, people can do it, and they can read and count. It can be said that they are good at home and outside, and they are good at work and life. His family also knows your nephew. He said that he will treat him as his own child in the future, and he must take care of him. Take good care of it. Don't worry."

Fang Zeng was stupid. He thought that shopkeeper Chen introduced his brother to him because he had something to do with Chen Fulang's family at most, but his family background should not be much different from him.After all, he has self-knowledge, he is a farmer, it is unrealistic to marry an official brother.But shopkeeper Chen told him that this brother is really the brother of the Chen family, the younger brother of the Ninth Grade Official.

Fang Zeng was not stupid, he hurriedly said: "Brother Chen, you are the best at making fun of me. I am a farmer, I don't have much money, and it doesn't matter, I can't even read well. If I marry an official brother, then Isn't it uncomfortable to rush to find it? If you marry a brother to live, you still have to find someone who knows the cold and the heat to be good to you, and this official brother can see me as a big bastard? Brother Chen was joking."

As soon as Fang Zeng's words fell, shopkeeper Chen quickly explained: "Brother Fang, do you think your brother is a joking person? Let me tell you, my brother lived in the countryside with his grandparents since he was a child. Yes, I came here with my elder brother when I was eight or nine years old. I lived a life in the countryside. How could I look down on you? Besides, although my eldest nephew is a ninth-rank, he is not a serious official. It's better than ordinary people's food and clothing. My elder brother and mother live well, and my little nephew is also very capable."

Looking at Fang Zeng's reluctance, he knew that Fang Zeng had a lot of worries in his heart.Shopkeeper Chen knew that Fang Zeng was stronger. If he heard that he could get in touch with the official, he would have been ecstatic.Fang Zeng was afraid that he would be oppressed by his husband in the future, Qi Dafei, Fang Zeng might not be willing to climb up to this kind of relative, so no one should say that he is climbing high.

But what is rare is that his elder brother just hinted to him that he is very satisfied with Fang Zeng, but thinking about the age of his little nephew, and thinking about his brother who is about to be seventeen, it is rare for his elder brother to fall in love with Fang Zeng Shopkeeper Chen is determined to give Fang Zeng to his nephew.

Therefore, shopkeeper Chen simply asked someone to make tea again, served pastries, and slowly told Fang Zeng about his nephew.

Shopkeeper Chen's eldest brother is named Chen Butou, and this nephew of shopkeeper Chen is his elder brother's youngest son. Chen Butou has only two children. In the early years, because his father didn't want to follow them to the town, the two brothers were worried. , I left my family in the countryside to live with my dad.

The elder brother of Chen Butou's family is called Chen Mo. He can do it since he was a child, and he is very popular with his family.Coincidentally, at that time, Chen Tutou had a good friend, surnamed Yu, whose name was Yu Lao Wu, a grain and oil merchant.The eldest son in the family is two years older than Chen Mo, and the two adults made a baby kiss.

Later, the Chen and Yu families got better and better, the eldest son of Chen Tutou's family became an official, and the fifth Yu's family became a well-known big grain and oil family in the town.Seeing that the eldest son of Yu Laowu's family was also doing business with Yu Laowu, and when the Chen family was preparing to marry Chen Mobei as a dowry, it was rumored that the eldest son had an illegitimate child.

Yu Lao Wu's eldest son is named Yu Liang, he looks refined and looks decent.The Chen family never expected that at the age of 17, he would have a concubine and an illegitimate child, and the Yu family kept it a secret, planning to let Chen Mo marry in as an established fact, to be a ready-made queen.

Both Chen Butou and Chen Yan are people who protect their weaknesses, especially when it comes to their brother, how can they let the Yu family make such an idea.He came to the door to ask for an explanation, but Yu's family talked about him, faltering and faltering.Chen Butou and Chen Yan cleaned up Yu Liang, but it became a difficult matter whether the marriage should end or not.

After all, who in this town doesn't know about the marriage between Chen Mo and Yu Liang. If the marriage is divorced, although Yu Liang has an illegitimate child, the man will not suffer in this matter.Yu's family is rich, and Yu Liang looks like a dog, so he can talk about his brother marrying in in the future.But Chen Mo was in a bit of a difficult situation. The sophisticated family didn't want a brother who retired from the marriage, and the bad family even valued the Chen family's family background, so it was a question of whether they could really treat Chen Mo.

It was Chen Mo's own request, the divorce.He said that he had no shortage of food or clothing, and he didn't ask his husband how capable he was.But at the very least, you have to live with yourself wholeheartedly.This person had an illegitimate child before marriage, and I'm afraid it's not impossible for him to accept Xiao Xiao in the future. He can't entrust his life's important affairs in the hands of such a person.

The Yu family was unwilling and argued with the Chen family, and the Chen family made up their minds to push back the marriage.The Yu family was not convinced, and outside they said that the Chen family was bullying others, and even poured dirty water on Chen Mo, saying that he was unreasonable and domineering.The incident was very tense. Although the Chen family had taught the Yu family a good lesson, Chen Mo's reputation had indeed been damaged.

The Chen family wanted to postpone Chen Mo's marriage, and wait for a year or two before the matter faded away.But in the second year, Chen Butou's father went away, and Chen Mo kept his filial piety again, and the marriage has been dragged on until now.Shopkeeper Chen saw that Fang Zeng didn't marry his elder brother, and when he thought that his nephew was unmarried, he got up to match the two of them.

When I went home and talked to my husband, shopkeeper Chen's husband was worried about his brother's marriage, so he immediately agreed.After all, if Chen Mo, his cousin, doesn't get married, it's not easy for his elder brother to marry.

After that, it was Chen Butou's family who came to see Fang Zeng.

After listening to Shopkeeper Chen's words, Fang Zeng hesitated a little. He felt that this brother was a strong-tempered man, but he seemed to have a good character.If they get married, they also said that they will treat their nephew well.But Fang thought about it, but he didn't agree. Although he believed in Shopkeeper Chen, he was still a little worried because what he heard was believing what he saw.

Shopkeeper Chen really wanted to make this kind of relationship. Fang Zeng had earned him a lot of money from the tea in the past few years, and Fang Zhiyuan and Fang Zhiyuan would send him some prescription dishes from time to time.Life is very rich, Fang Zeng is a person who values ​​friendship, and handles human relationships very well.Such a person is from a poor family, even if my brother marries him, he can't bear any grievances.

Shopkeeper Chen also wished his nephew a good marriage and a good life.Therefore, shopkeeper Chen simply made an appointment with Fang Zeng, intending to let the two of them meet.If it doesn't work, then he won't force it, if it works, then everyone will be happy.

Fang Zeng thought about it and agreed, and made an appointment to meet in the backyard of Shopkeeper Chen's restaurant.

On the other side, Fang Zhiyuan was also courting Liu's family.

Since the matter between Liu Zhuang and Fang Zhiyuan was settled, Fang Zeng planned to tell Liu Zhuang's ancestors and grandchildren about the roasting of tea next year in order to earn more money.Fang Zeng thought clearly, Liu Amo is only Liu Zhuang's grandson, and he will marry his nephew in the future, so they will never reveal how the tea is made, nor will they pry into the corner of the wall.

Since the engagement, Fang Zhiyuan, who had been having a secret love affair with Liu Zhuang secretly, hooked up with Liu Zhuang openly.The two of them went hunting together in the mountains, and gave Liu Zhuang random flowers, or drove his uncle's car and took Liu Zhuang to the town to go shopping.

Both Liu Amo and Fang Zeng turned a blind eye and let them go. Because of the marriage contract, others saw it, no matter what they thought in their hearts, they couldn't say anything directly.And Fang Zhiyuan never cared what others thought of him, as long as he was worthy of himself and his family.

Of course, ever since he knew he was going to live with Liu Zhuang, thinking of Liu Zhuang's strength, in order not to let himself become a strict wife, Fang Zhiyuan stepped up his physical training, diligently, and earnestly learned martial arts from Fang Zeng .Therefore, since Fang Zhiyuan and Liu Zhuang still have some strength in strength, it is still more than enough for hunting in the mountains, driving a car and so on.

Liu Ah's cooking is very good. He used to be a food stall. After learning from Fang Zhiyuan that Fang Zhiyuan now has a shop with five acres of land, Liu Ah's feeling is that he prepared more dowry for his grandson. , because he is in a good mood, and has kept up with eating and drinking in the past few years. Liu Ama looks tougher than before. Regardless of Liu Zhuang's obstruction, he reopened the previous stall.

What they sell are all kinds of meatballs that Fang Zhiyuan kindly provided, a bit like skewers, mainly meatballs.When the weather is fine, Liu Ahma will keep a small stove at the intersection, set up a few small tables and benches, and do small business.

Liu Zhuang didn't want to talk to his nanny, so he had no choice but to accompany him when he had nothing to do, and Fang Zhiyuan naturally became a follower to help Liu Auntie when he had nothing to do.

The meatballs sold by Liu Ama are game meat hunted by Liu Zhuang. After processing and mixing ingredients, they are simmering in the soup made from pork bones, and the aroma can be smelled from a distance.Liu Ah's selling is not expensive, two strings for a penny, and a string of five meatballs.The children in the surrounding villages like to buy food from Amo Liu. It happens that this road is not far from the Zhao family private school. The children who go to the private school pass by here every day. The business of Amo Liu is always good. Every now and then they are sold out.

Da Zhuang and Xiao Zhuang are loyal fans of these meatballs. Since they have a strong relationship with Fang Zhiyuan, Liu Ama loves Wu and Wu, and always invites them to eat meatballs for nothing, which makes them jealous and embarrassed at the same time, which is very entangled.What to do, I really want to eat, but Ah Mo said that you can't eat and take other people's things for free.

In the end, Fang Zhiyuan made the final decision and asked Da Zhuang Xiao Zhuang to help Liu Ama look at the stalls if he had nothing to do.

And on this day, Fang Zeng went to the town and left Fang Zhiyuan with Liu Ah Mo, which has become a routine now.Whenever Fang Zeng was inconvenient or went outside, he usually left Fang Zhiyuan at Liu Ama's house, which could be regarded as creating some date time for Liu Zhuang and Fang Zhiyuan.
