selling chili peppers in chronology

=============================

Chen Chen sighed in his heart, and then said: "Dad, I have a steelyard in my heart, and I know what I should do. I will listen to other people's opinions, and I will consider whether they will be adopted or not. So, You don't have to be afraid of saying something to mislead me, because I will judge for myself, I am not a child anymore."

Chen Jianye murmured repeatedly: "Yes, you are older now, and you are thoughtful about things."

Chen Chen shook his head, "Maybe sometimes I don't think so thoroughly."

Chen Jianye looked at him.

Chen Chen smiled and said: "So Dad, you just say it directly every time you have something to say. Maybe what you said is exactly what I didn't think about? Didn't you just remind me when you brought it up?"

Chen Jianye also smiled, but the smile was a bit cramped, but it could be seen that it was from the heart, "That's okay..."

After a little revealing of his heart, the expression on Chen Jianye's face was much more relaxed, but not so relaxed.

"Dad." Chen Chen suddenly called out.

Chen Jianye recovered from his slightly contemplative mood, "Huh?"

Chen Chen's tone was not serious, and the scene seemed to be a father and son chatting in an ordinary way, but the content was a bit unexpected, "Her affairs have nothing to do with you, you don't need to feel indebted to us because of her."

Chen Jianye was stunned for a long time before realizing who Chen Chen was referring to as "she", and the expression on his face suddenly became forced.

But Chen Chen continued as if he couldn't see: "I was over ten years old when she left, and I remembered everything I should remember. I also know what she looked like in our house in those years, and she didn't have a head. I don’t even forget what happened when I walked back.”

Chen Jianye was a little stiff, with an expression of embarrassment and anticipation on his face.

Chen Chen looked at him, and said in a serious tone: "You just let go of a person who doesn't care about this family or our father and son. You didn't do anything wrong."

"Her identity may have been unusual to us, but now she is just an ordinary woman to me, no different from any woman I meet on the road."

"and……"

The expression on Chen Chen's face was very gentle, and his voice sounded bewitching, "Xiaobei and I were brought up by you, and the whole Chen family was there for us to study. Compared with those in the ten miles and eight villages, Xiaobei and I are also the same. Never lacking anything compared to other children. So, don’t take her faults on yourself, she is not worth you, and you don’t have to. You are you, she is her, Xiaobei and I both It's very clear."

Chen Jianye's eyes were red, and there were still tears rolling inside, but in order not to shed tears in front of Chen Chen, he hastily turned his head aside.

Chen Chen didn't point it out, instead he got up and went to the kitchen. After standing for a while, he went in with the enamel jar, and poured Chen Jianye a cup of hot water.

Chen Jianye's mood has calmed down slightly better than before, the crystals in his eye sockets were wiped off or disappeared, but it was not as obvious as when he was so tense just now.

Then, he said, "Over the years, I know many things in the village, but..."

Chen Chen took his words with a normal tone, "But the mouth grows on them, and we can't control it."

Chen Jianye hummed.

Chen Chen said indifferently: "Isn't it like this in the village? The parents of the east and the family of the west are short-changed, but everything has to be discussed. This is not just for us, it's just such a custom. I did care about it before, but now I have grown up so much, I also want to understand, they say theirs, we live ours, in fact it will not be so bad, let alone lose a piece of meat."

"It's good that you can think so." Chen Jianye was a little surprised and a little not so surprised, "You used to always care about these..."

Yuanshen really cared about it, so he raised his temper to be a little sensitive.

He never wanted to pass either.

But now Chen Chen can't say that, "I was young before, I couldn't figure it out, and I won't in the future."

He didn't seem to be lying, Chen Jianye finally showed a relieved smile on his face.

Chen Jianye also refuted it at the beginning of the discussion in the village, but what they said was the truth. He was either incompetent, married a wife from the city and couldn't stand it, was divorced, or left his child without a mother...

He could not dispute these facts at all.

Can you really take care of someone with a long mouth?

Can't control it.

So every day he goes to the fields desperately, earning work points, thinking that his two sons who can read can read books, so that they can have more food. Land, and even a decent job in the city, then his life is worth it.

Now that the days have passed, his original idea seems to have come true, and when he heard the heartfelt words his son said to him, he was happy and didn't know how to react.

Chen Jianye thought: It's really good, and the days are really good now.

Seeing his relieved look, Chen Chen suddenly said, "Aunt Liu is also very good."

The happy Chen Jianye was stunned.

"Dad, I think it's a very correct decision for you and Aunt Liu to remarry." Chen Chen didn't say any more, "The coal is burned out, I'll go out and pick some up."

After saying that, he left the house, leaving Chen Jianye sitting on the bench alone for a long time without regaining his senses. After that, he was completely relieved.

Chen Chen suddenly mentioned such a sentence, and Chen Jianye also wanted to understand what Chen Chen wanted to express.

The reason why he didn't dare to make a request in front of Chen Chen was that every time he wanted to say something, he had to hesitate and think about it for a long time before he opened his mouth. Besides the debt he owed them since he was a child, it was true that he had proposed to marry Liu Dongxue before. In the end, he was rejected by Chen Chen, and the family had a few days of awkwardness because of this.He was afraid that if he said something now, the relationship would become the same as it was before.

But now, Chen Chen said that he was right to remarry, that is to say that he was right to propose remarriage.

After figuring this out, Chen Jianye suddenly covered his face, gasping for breath.

……

Chen Chen actually wanted to talk to Chen Jianye a long time ago, but at that moment he felt that as long as he showed enough attitude, as long as he treated the whole family including Liu Dongxue and Zhou Pingan well, Chen Jianye would definitely understand his thoughts , know that he does not exclude his remarriage.

But unexpectedly, he has done so much, and the relationship between the family is indeed close. Liu Dongxue and Zhou Ping'an are not that cautious and careful when they get along with them now, but Chen Jianye's side is not as good as he expected.

In the final analysis, it was all because Wang Danyue's departure caused such a heavy blow to Chen Jianye, including his slightly sensitive personality. As a father, Chen Jianye must understand a thing or two.

only……

None of them can help.

There is such a culture in the village, even if you like to watch the excitement and poke people's scars, no matter how powerful you are, you can't stop everyone's mouths.

Therefore, the pressure Chen Jianye was carrying... was far greater than what Chen Jianye had shown.

Chen Chen thought that Chen Jianye hadn't married again for so many years. Apart from being afraid that their brothers would be scolded by their stepmother when they were young, there was probably a reason for this, and he didn't want them to be discussed again.

Of course, at that time, it was also because the Chen family had not yet separated, and everyone was under the same roof. Mrs. Li and her two aunts were both good-natured, and they had done a lot like what mothers should do. It's already a mess.

just now……

After the talk, I hope he can let go of the grudges in his heart.

It was dusk at this time, the chickens in the chicken coop were crowing, Chen Chen went over to look, and found that the chicken dregs had been eaten clean, and the broken pot on the chicken coop was also empty.Chen Chen went to find something again, mixed some chicken food and poured it in, so they stopped cooing.

The other three members of the family didn't know where they went. When Chen Chen entered the house with coal, Chen Jianye was no longer in the small hall.

Add coal to the coal stove, the kettle above is bubbling and bubbling, fill the thermos with boiling hot water, and then bring the earthen pot to cook porridge.

It is rare to eat dry rice in winter, most of them are porridge with more noodles.

In order to keep warm, the coal stove burns all day long. The coal is bought with extra money, and it is hard work to go up the mountain to cut firewood. Sometimes you have to go a long way to cut a bundle of firewood.Therefore, in order to save firewood, people will make use of coal stoves to cook meals.

Chen Chen cooked lean meat and cabbage porridge tonight.

The meat was bought a few days ago, and it was hung on a skewer with palm leaves in cold weather, and it has not been put out until now.It happened that I didn’t really want to drink white porridge, so I cut some lean meat and diced it and boiled it, then added some oil and salt, and finally added finely chopped cabbage, the taste must be enough.

When the scent was gurgling from the earthen pot, Chen Bei and Zhou Ping'an came back. The two of them walked like the wind, and they didn't know if someone was chasing after them.

"Brother, we got a wild pomelo." After entering the room, Chen Bei opened his mouth and said.

Chen Chen turned his head, and sure enough, he saw that both of them were holding two grapefruits in their arms. Because they were so big, they couldn't hold them with one hand, so they carried them back with their arms around their waists.

Chen Chen was surprised, "Where did you get it?"

Chen Bei put the grapefruit on the table, and now he shook his arms and said, "It's on the back mountain."

Chen Chen frowned. If there were some wild fruits on the back mountain, the villagers would have finished them a long time ago, so where would they leave them?And it's still such a big grapefruit.

Zhou Pingan saw that Chen Chen had a serious face, and hurriedly said, "Brother Xingwei took us there."

Chen Chen asked, "What's going on?"

Zhou Pingan explained: "Xiaobei and I wanted to go to the mountain to find out if there were any wild oranges, and then we ran into Brother Xingwei who was going hunting. We went to pick wild pomelo."

Chen Chen narrowed his eyes, "Really?"

"Of course it's true." Chen Bei hurriedly said, "Brother, you don't know, Brother Xingwei is very familiar with Houshan, he knows many places I haven't been to before, and he said he would take us to pick wild pomelo He took us to pick wild pomelo, and we didn't get lost in the middle, and we found it without any problems."

Chen Chen was vague, "Are you in any danger?"

Chen Bei and Zhou Ping'an saw that Chen Chen's face was expressionless, and they didn't dare to be too shy. They shook their heads obediently, "No."

Chen Chen hummed.

Chen Bei asked tentatively, "Brother, are you not angry?"

Chen Chen's tone was flat, "If it's just the two of you going to the deep mountains, then I will definitely be angry."

Chen Bei immediately said: "If there is no Brother Xingwei, I would not dare to go to the deep mountains."

Zhou Pingan hurriedly nodded to indicate that he was too.

"It's fine if you have a sense of proportion." Chen Chen asked again: "Is it just picking grapefruits?"

"No, when I came back, I ran into a pheasant and was hunted by brother Xingwei." There was a bit of admiration in Chen Bei's voice, "brother, brother Xingwei is really good at hunting. I didn't even see him clearly at the time. How did the pheasant lie on the ground and didn’t move, and when I asked him later, he said it was hit with stones.”

The subject was praised, Chen Chen and You Rongyan smiled a little, "His skill is pretty good."

However, Chen Bei and Zhou Pingan didn't notice it. They were still lamenting the exciting scene of the pheasant falling suddenly.

"...Brother Xingwei wanted to give us the pheasant when we parted at the foot of the mountain, but we didn't want it, and then came back with the grapefruit."

While chatting, Liu Dongxue also came back, "I don't want anything?"

She only heard the part behind it.

Zhou Pingan repeated it.

Liu Dongxue nodded after listening, "I can't ask for it. He called it himself. You didn't do anything to help. You got four big grapefruits for nothing. You took advantage of it. You can't ask for other things from him."

Chen Bei and Zhou Ping'an laughed.

During the meal, Liu Dongxue said again: "In the afternoon, I went to the next village to ask the cotton maker. They didn't have any cotton plucking tomorrow, so I asked them to help me pluck a few beds. You may have to help bring cotton over there tomorrow." , otherwise a day of going back and forth would not be finished."

At such a time, Chen Jianye would still subconsciously look at Chen Chen, but this time he met Chen Chen's gentle eyes. He froze for a moment, and then said, "Tomorrow is just at home, everyone carry the cotton together, wait Once you’ve played it, you’ll carry it back together.”

Liu Dongxue was slightly surprised, but didn't think too much about it, "Okay."

Chen Chen felt that it was much more natural for Liu Dongxue to get along with him and Chen Bei now than it was for Chen Jianye to get along with them.

"Okay, I just have nothing to do."

Naturally, Chen Bei and Zhou Ping'an had no problem, and they all agreed.

Looking at the harmonious atmosphere, Chen Jianye suddenly realized that this atmosphere had already existed on the dinner table at home a long time ago.Dong Xue had been in the house for several months, and they hadn't blushed, and they got along far better than he thought.
