Getting rich in chronology

There was a little delay, by the time Shen Yu and Shen Qiao finished their dinner and went to meet Shen's family, it was already seven or eight o'clock.

It doesn't look too late, but at this time of night there are few entertainment activities, so I go to bed very early. If I am in the country and have nothing else to do, it is normal to go to bed around [-] o'clock.

Although my hometown has been connected to electricity in recent years, not every family has applied for it. It costs dozens of dollars to install an electric meter.

Moreover, the electricity bill is also expensive, a few cents per hour, and only a few wealthy households in Shangkanzi Village have access to electricity.

When Chen Yu arrived, a large family was gathering in the yard to enjoy the shade. Grandma Shen fanned herself with a cardboard she found out somewhere, while muttering: "I should have brought my cattail fan with me."

Chen Yu smiled and asked: "Grandma, are you not used to blowing electric fans?"

After Shen's family moved in, Chen Yu brought an electric fan over. Although it is impossible to arrange one for each room, it must be prepared for grandma's room.

Grandma Shen smiled when she saw her baby grandson, and held up a cardboard to fan Chen Yu, and said happily: "The cat is here, hurry up, come in the house, there are many mosquitoes outside, don't bite you, come in and blow the electric fan .”

"Your grandfather is not used to bragging about this, the old man can't enjoy himself, so he insists on coming to the yard to cool off."

Grandpa Shen glanced at his daughter-in-law, and silently smoked the pot.

Didn't your old lady drive all the big guys into the yard because of the electricity waste?It turned out that he would not enjoy the blessing, although he also felt that it was too wasteful.

"Grandma, this is Shen Qiao, the one I told you about." Chen Yu gave Shen Qiao a hand, introduced him to the Shen family, and introduced him to the Shen family one by one.

Shen Qiao shouted after Chen Yu, and Chen Yu said: "This is my grandpa."

Shen Qiao shouted: "Grandpa."

Chen Yu said: "This is my grandma."

Shen Qiao: "Grandma."

Chen Yu: "This is my dad."

Shen Qiao: "Dad."

Everyone present: "..."

Shen Yu held his forehead, and took a sneak peek. Although Shen Anmin looked dumbfounded, he showed no other expression.

He coughed lightly, squinted his eyes and smiled slyly, and said in a triumphant tone, "You've been fooled."

"You child." Shen Anmin cursed with a smile, and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"They are all good children." Grandma Shen squinted her eyes. The old man was a little night blind, and she couldn't see Shen Qiao's face clearly under the moonlight. She only thought that this baby had a good body, tall and big, and not as bulky as her grandchildren.

The house is not as bright as the courtyard, and the moonlight shines in through the doors and windows, illuminating a small space.

Chen Yu conveniently pulled the light cord by the door, and the room was suddenly brightened.

Grandma Shen asked Chen Yu to sit down, and yelled at others to pour water for Chen Yu and Shen Qiao.

Huniu didn't have a light bulb at home, so when she saw the light was on, she couldn't help but looked up at the little light bulb that was shining.

Chen Yu covered her eyes with her hand: "Don't stare at the light bulb, your eyes will be uncomfortable."

Although she didn't understand, Hu Niu still nodded obediently.

Because the courtyard was shared by several families before, it was not very spacious, and there was no hall, so everyone crowded into the grandma's room, which seemed a bit crowded.

So when Shen Qiao finished identifying the person, everyone else went back to their houses, or went to the courtyard to enjoy the cool and chat, only Grandpa Shen, Grandma Shen, Father Shen, brothers and sisters were left in the house.

After sitting down, Chen Yu spoke first: "Grandma, the electricity bill in this house is included in the rent. I have already paid the rent, and the money will not be refunded to me."

No, he handed it in alone, but there is no need to tell grandma about this.

Grandma Shen was both surprised and heartbroken: "Have you already given it?"

She didn't dare to turn on the light for the past two days, so she was at a disadvantage!

"That's right, so turn on the lights when it's dark, and turn on the fan when it's hot, don't be reluctant." Chen Yu said while holding grandma's hand.

Grandma Shen was sitting beside Shen Yu, the warm yellow light shone on her body, and the electric fan was blowing, bringing a cool breeze.

The old lady couldn't stop muttering: "It's such a blessing, life is really better now, the hall is so bright at night, and I don't even have to fan myself."

Chen Yu felt sad for a while when he heard it, what is wrong with this.

"Grandma, our country will become stronger and stronger. When the country is stronger, the lives of ordinary people will be better and better."

Grandpa Shen rarely spoke: "The cat is right."

He smiled and looked at his grandson, as expected of a child who has studied, what he said was nice.

After the family chatted a few words, Grandma Shen said: "Cat, I have discussed with your grandfather, and I will go back tomorrow. There is still work in my hometown."

She also feels sorry for the rent that Chen Yu has already paid, but it is impossible to live like this all the time.

Mao'er is such a real kid. He feeds them well every day, takes them to the movies and buys them new clothes. How can they spend so much money? It's not easy for dolls to earn money.

So Grandpa Shen and Grandma Shen discussed it, and they both said that it would be fine to go back earlier. When they came, they thought they would not stay for long, so they didn't bring much rations.

If you stay any longer, people in their twenties will not do anything every day, just wait for the cat to raise it?outrageous!

"Milk--"

As soon as Chen Yu started talking, he was interrupted by Grandpa Shen: "We have already discussed it, don't worry about us, you are a little doll, just study hard."

The old couple are the ones in charge of the Shen family. They just discussed this matter, and they haven't told the other children and juniors yet.

When Second Aunt Shen heard this, she became anxious.

She originally planned to let her son sell well in front of Shen Yu, but that child was not enlightened, and he didn't push forward at all, and Second Aunt Shen couldn't do anything about it.

She struggled for a while, seeing that Chen Yu was about to say something else, she quickly said: "I, I have something to say."

In fact, it's better to tell Chen Yu privately, Chen Yu is a junior, if she finds it, it's not easy for Chen Yu to save her face, but isn't this the same as Liang Fengxia?Relying on seniority to oppress people.

"What are you going to say?" Grandma Shen's eyes were not friendly, for fear that the daughter would say something inappropriate.

Second Aunt Shen was stared at by her mother, but for the sake of her son's future, she mustered up the courage to say: "Cat, your cousin is full of warehouses, he is a fool who can only work hard, I just want... I want to ask, can I get a job in the city?" Find him a job here."

After speaking, for fear that Chen Yu would refuse, she added incoherently: "He can do any job, as long as he can make a living. My family... There is no land for him to grow at home. What will this child do in the future? I am serious with his father. Can't..."

She became more and more anxious, and a layer of sweat broke out on her head.

Grandma Shen sighed, her daughter married to another village, the situation of the Cao family is also in chaos, although they are richer than the Shen family, but the brothers of the Cao family are not as close as the brothers of the Shen family.

Cao Mancang had many children in his generation. The Second Aunt Shen’s family had only three sons, and Cao Mancang had eight or nine cousins, not counting the cousins ​​and those who were born without support.

There are many children, and each has their own ideas. The old man above pressures him not to divide the family. Cao Mancang is almost twenty, and he sleeps in a room with one cousin and two cousins.

You don't even have your own house, how can you marry a wife?

Second Aunt Shen was so worried that she discussed it with her husband many times, but when she mentioned this, the two elders of the Cao family said in one voice: "Why don't I let you marry your son a wife? What, no house? If you don't have a house, you can use the money to build it yourself. Still thinking about the money in the hands of the old man, it's not filial!"

Second Aunt Shen didn't have any money. A few years ago, they were not allowed to do business or work. Their old farmers earn work points by farming, and they don't get a few dollars all year round. If the harvest is not good, they don't have a few dollars.

Relying on raising chickens to lay eggs, and exchanging some oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, needles and thread for money, there is no separation, and this money cannot reach the hands of the small family, and it is all controlled by the two elders.

The first two sons got married, and the eldest son was given a small hut so that the younger couple could settle down.

The second son had no house, and when he was old, there was nothing he could do. The second aunt Shen and his wife took their three sons to dig sand in the river.

It was a hard job. A metal lifter was shoveled out of the river with the sand attached to the water. The resistance of the water made every swing of the iron lifter extremely strenuous. After shoveling for a while, my arms were so swollen that I couldn't lift it when I went back.

Just like this, we can't delay the work in the field, or the rest of the family will stop doing it.

Farming during the day and shoveling sand in the morning and evening, I was so tired all summer that I was almost paralyzed from work, so I built a house for my second child.

As a result, there was trouble in this house again. Second Aunt Shen married the third child of the Cao family. The second room of the Cao family had a son who was two years younger than the second child of Second Aunt Shen's family.

Cao's second son didn't have a house for his son to marry, so he set his sights on the house prepared by the second aunt Shen and his wife for their son.

Of course, Second Aunt Shen's family couldn't do it. Because of this house, the whole family almost died of exhaustion.

Cao Er also took his sons to help when building the house, so he dared to take their house, what a dream.

After making a fuss, Cao's second daughter-in-law, seeing that the house would not be available, felt angry and wanted to play a trick by speaking ill of Shen's second aunt in front of the Cao family's old couple.

It is said that their husband and wife had a small mind and secretly hid the money to guard against the elderly at home, otherwise where would they get the money to build a house.

Cao Laosan was at home, and his parents didn't like him. After this happened, Sanfang and his family were even more sad.

The old man of the Cao family made it clear that Sanfang hid the money and had ulterior motives, and when the family was divided in the future, they had to cut down a few acres of land.

Second Aunt Shen couldn't even save another house for her third son, and if she did it again, they would get even less land!

That's why Second Aunt Shen thought of a way out, she wanted to find a way out for her youngest son, if Chen Yu wanted him, he could stay in the city, among other things, at least he would be able to eat enough.

It's not like at home, you have to be pissed off when you add a bowl of rice.

Grandma Shen actually felt sorry for her daughter and grandson, but she couldn't bear to embarrass her grandson.

So she didn't stop Second Aunt Shen from saying these things to Chen Yu, but she didn't intercede with Chen Yu either.

Chen Yu didn't think it was a big deal, he had originally planned to drag his relatives out.

Besides, Second Aunt Shen didn't ask too much, just asked him if he could help my cousin find a job. According to Second Aunt Shen's request, even if Chen Yu didn't want him here, my cousin would go to do odd jobs to carry big bags for others, earning more than 20 yuan a month. It's okay for him to eat enough.

Of course, he can't ask his cousin to carry the big bags. He has so many stores, but the manpower is actually quite tight. It's easy to put a few people in to work.

Shen Qiao remembered that Chen Yu said before that he wanted to pull Shen's family members, so he said softly to Chen Yu: "If you can't do it, I can arrange a job for you."

"No, there is still a shortage of people in the store." Chen Yu didn't want Shen Qiao to do this, in case he owed favors, it wouldn't be worthwhile.

"Second aunt, don't worry, let my cousin stay. It just so happens that my store is quite short of manpower."

Second Aunt Shen was very happy: "Okay, great, thank you so much, Cat."

She wiped her eyes and said excitedly: "Don't worry, he will definitely work hard and do whatever he asks. If he doesn't listen, you...you hit him, don't be soft!"

Chen Yu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so it's unnecessary.

Grandpa Shen said worriedly: "Is there really a shortage of people?"

Chen Yu nodded: "Really, it's not my cousin, I have to hire other people too."

Shen Anfu hesitated and said, "Cat, what do you think of our Qingfeng?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Mr. Shen knocked on him: "Why, do you think we are also biased, and don't build a house for your son to get married, and want to find a way out for him?"

After all, Mr. Shen was worried that Chen Yu was trying to coax him, so he said that there was a shortage of people, and keeping more people was just to add to his burden.

"No, no... Dad, what are you talking about." Shen Anfu had a bitter face, didn't he think that his son's future would be better if he followed the cat.

Chen Yu smiled and said: "Grandpa, if Second Uncle doesn't say anything, I will say it anyway. We will keep a few people here. If the Xiao family comes to bully me again in the future, I will have a helper."

Grandma Shen immediately said, "That's the reason."

Thinking that the Xiao family might bully her cat again, I wanted to beat them up again!

"Then we can't stay any longer." At this time, it is still up to Mr. Shen to make a decision. He must not keep all of them if he brings more than a dozen juniors.

Let them fight for themselves, and the cats will choose again. What if they have opinions in their hearts if they are not selected?

Mr. Shen pondered for a while, and asked Chen Yu: "How many do you think are appropriate to keep?"

Chen Yu really wasn't lying to his grandfather, there was indeed a shortage of people in the store, but the elder brothers of the Shen family were capable and capable, and their education level was not high, so for the time being, they could only do back-office work such as carrying dishes and collecting bowls.

With this limitation...

Chen Yu calculated: "Four or five."

"That's four." Mr. Shen obviously had a plan in mind, and he directly reported four people to Chen Yu: "Your second aunt's house is full of warehouses, and your second uncle's house's Qingfeng is also fine..."

The old man glanced at his second son with a happy face, and explained to Chen Yu: "Qingfeng went to elementary school, just like his father, he is a bit smart, but he is honest in his work, not a showman."

Chen Yu nodded: "I always listen to Grandpa."

Grandpa Shen was so coaxed that he closed his eyes with a smile, and ordered two more people, but they were children from Uncle Chen Yutang's family.

This matter was settled, Chen Yu talked about his plan to sell clothes again.

He thought about buying the clothes directly, and then tricking them into taking them back to sell, and then telling them that there is a set for each of them when he leaves.

But in this way, there is a high probability that the new clothes will be sold together.

Moreover, he is not familiar with the popular situation in the market there, what if the style he bought is not easy to sell there?

Chen Yu said it straight, and grandpa and grandma Shen shook their heads.

"No, eat yours, use yours, and wear a new suit when you leave, how can you be so thick-skinned! You want to sell clothes, milk for you, and the money will be sent to you." Grandma Shen felt She is good at everything about her cat, but she is too devoted to her relatives. If no one takes care of her, the family will be ruined in the future.

"You listen to me, save the money for yourself, buy some delicious food, and study for a waste of your brain."

Shen Anmin, who was silent all night, said in a muffled voice, "Eat more fish."

Chen Yu: "..."

"Grandma, it's up to me." Chen Yu insisted: "Otherwise I will send the clothes back, and I will have to pay extra postage."

Since grandma does not reject business, then his idea is feasible.

The old couple failed to convince Chen Yu in the end, and felt very distressed.

Grandma Shen kept saying: "If they don't treat my cat well in the future, they will have no conscience! There are you guys, do you hear me? It's embarrassing to be an elder and take advantage of my baby!"

Shen Anfu, Shen Anxing and the two daughters of the Shen family were scolded by their own mother.

We also persuaded him just now, but Shen Maoer didn't listen!

But I still feel beautiful in my heart. As for the new clothes, I haven't worn them a few times in my life. I really enjoy my nephew's blessing.

Because I had to buy clothes, I couldn't leave the next morning.

Aunt Shen went to the garment factory with Chen Yu. The village she married was relatively close to the town. It was a wealthy village. There was a big market in the village. She usually went to the town more often, so she knew more about what kind of clothes were popular in the area.

Thanks to Chen Zehai, Chen Yu's small orders did not receive any harassment or dislike as before, and the sales department directly sent someone to take them to choose the goods.

I bought it for my family. The men are more uniform. The elders wear blue, green or striped POLO shirts. Recently, men in the city are quite popular wearing these. It is actually a loose T-shirt with a few more buttons.

With a pair of trousers underneath, this set is just fine.

Cousins ​​and cousins, all blue and white pinstripe sea soul shirts with short sleeves, and army green trousers underneath.

Although Chen Yu didn't like it, the brothers felt that this outfit was dead fashionable, and it was fashionable to wear and walk.

Since I bought clothes for them, of course I respected their opinions, so I bought this set.

The female elders were chosen by Aunt Shen, and they all chose loose-fitting clothes with some flowers.

The remaining Chen Yu bought another 32 pieces, making up [-] pieces.

The clothing market is relatively solid at the moment. There are few fabrics for thin clothes in summer. Except for some special materials that are expensive, clothes will be cheaper than autumn and winter.

In the clothing factory, you can get the goods according to the purchase price, and you can get a summer shirt for more than ten yuan. If you transport it to other cities, it is not a problem to resell it for twenty yuan.

Chen Yu originally thought that Aunt Shen would pick more women's clothes to sell, but she didn't expect that Aunt Shen took nearly twenty pieces of blue and white pinstriped sea soul shirts like her cousins ​​in one go.

Seeing Chen Yu's strangeness, Aunt Shen explained: "When Qingtian and the others go back wearing this clothes together, they are so energetic, I'm sure those youngsters will be envious."

Shen Qingtian is the son of Uncle Chen Yu's family.

Chen Yu: "..." Emotional cousins ​​can still be models!

Aunt Shen doesn't look as shrewd as Aunt Shen, but she actually has her own mind. She chooses clothes for young people, and both men's and women's clothes are more suitable for young people.

How should I put it, it's not that I don't like to dress up. Who doesn't like to dress up if they have the conditions, but when they get older, they think more about their family members. They would rather buy new clothes for their children than for themselves.

After picking out the clothes, the two went out, Cao Mancang and Shen Qingfeng who were waiting outside easily carried the big bag made of dozens of clothes, and Chen Yu refused to give up his hand.

When Chen Yu came here, he didn't want to find someone, but it was such a coincidence that before he left the garment factory, he bumped into Chen Zehai and Yunhong.

Having to greet each other, Chen Yu politely called out: "Uncle Chen."

He didn't give Yunhong a wink, it's all like this, and he still pretends to be harmonious on the surface, which is unnecessary.

Chen Zehai nodded and looked behind him: "This is..."

Chen Yu pursed her lips and smiled shyly: "Buy some clothes for the people in my hometown, they have come all the way to work hard."

"Good boy, really filial." Chen Zehai boasted.

Yunhong's face froze, and the smile on his face couldn't hold back.

Thanks for your hard work?They are tired from beating people across provinces, right?

Anyway, the Xiao family and him are going to get married soon, and the Shen family beat his future son-in-law until his face is still swollen, and the engagement banquet will be held in a few days, and I don't know if it will be okay then.

It was really embarrassing for Yunhong to stay here, so he found an excuse and left.

As soon as he left, Chen Zehai and Shen Yu relaxed, and the conversation became more natural.

Chen Yu thought that Chen Meili had been away for three or four days, and she didn't seem to like her hometown very much, so she couldn't help asking Chen Zehai about the situation.

As soon as Chen Zehai heard his voice, he knew what his daughter had said to Chen Yu, and immediately smiled: "Don't worry, although the old lady is partial, she still loves the child."

There's no way, it's not that the old lady doesn't love her granddaughter, she doesn't want to eat any good things, and she wants to keep them for the children.

But it's just partiality, patriarchal, and loves the grandson more, thinking that the grandson can continue the incense, and the girl will marry sooner or later, and it will belong to someone else's family.

Old ideas cannot be changed.

Last year, I talked to Chen Zehai, saying that Meili is old and not good-looking, and if she doesn't find her husband's family, she will be dragged into an old girl and will not be able to marry, so let him provide some snacks.

Chen Zehai laughed angrily, his girl didn't reach her eighteenth birthday yet, and she still has to go to university, what kind of husband's family can she find, why is she so old.

Not good-looking, how pretty is his girl!

Talked about the old lady, but thought that the old lady was also worried, and after all, he was an elder, so he didn't say much, only said that he was searched in the city and comforted the old lady.

"When will she come back, invite her to my house to play, I have something nice to show her!" Although he is reluctant to be touched by others, he can show his little friend his big blue!

They had made an appointment to take Chen Meili for a drive.

"Okay, I'm going on a business trip in two days, and I'll be back in about two or three days. I'll pick her up when I get back."

Originally, Yunhong was supposed to go, but he wanted to marry his daughter, so Chen Zehai went on a business trip instead.

In fact, Chen Meili's grandma's home is in the province, but it is a bit far from the provincial capital. It takes more than five hours to go to the city by train, and you have to transfer to the village.

Chen Zehai was worried about his girl and went back to pick her up.

After Shen Yu got the reply, she bid farewell to Chen Zehai contentedly. He is so cool, Da Lan, and his tablemate will definitely think it is great too!

Grandpa Shen and Grandma Shen were afraid that they would leave Chen Yu poor by staying here. After everything was ready, except for Cao Mancang and others who were left behind, everyone else took the train back that afternoon.

Although I had to spend the night in the car, it was daytime when I got home, and it was more convenient to go back to the countryside by car.

Before leaving, Chen Yu used Aunt Shen's reason - he needed a model, and persuaded everyone to put on new clothes.

Otherwise, I would be reluctant to wear it, and I might sell the clothes by then.

The next day, when the Shen family walked out of the train station, other people were fine. A dozen or so young men wearing the same blue and white pinstripe sea soul shirt and army green trousers came out of the carriage, and immediately attracted attention. Many glances.

Grandpa Shen chose the strongest boys in the family. They put on new clothes that fit them and walked with their heads held high. They were no worse than models.

So Chen Yu still doesn't understand the trend of this era, when passers-by see it, they really think that such a suit is so cool, so cool, so fashionable.

At that time, a young man came over to ask where he bought the clothes. They sold the same army green trousers in this city, but they didn't have such a sea soul shirt.
