selling chili peppers in chronology

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

In the courtyard of the Chen family, Mrs. Li took several daughters-in-law and grand-daughter-in-laws to measure the chili seeds with a small scale, and the grandsons next to him looked at where they needed help from time to time, and Chen Chen sat on the bench and wrote records. How much land and the number of chili seeds exchanged.

Just such a thing, starting early in the morning and finishing it at eleven o'clock, Chen Chen wrote seven or eight sheets of paper in his hand, all of which were names, numbers and fingerprints.

Many people who got the chili seeds did not leave, but there were not as many as before. Basically, there were only one or two people left in each household.They mainly wanted to stay to see if there was anything else going on, and the village head and several captains were also there, so they must also listen to what happened later.

Chen Chen wrote down the record of the last household that exchanged chili seeds, then put down the pen, seeing that everyone was there, after thinking about it, he read the entire contract from the beginning again, and then asked: "...This contract, everyone Is there a problem?"

"no!"

"My land is right!"

"My family is right!"

"..."

"Since there are no problems, let the village head and several captains sign on behalf of the village." Chen Chen handed the arranged contract to the village head, "This contract is signed, and then it will be counted in black and white. gone."

Everyone said it was okay.

"It's such a great thing, the village chief and the captain just sign it!" someone said.

"I'll take a closer look first."

The village head has been the head of Pingba Village for decades. During his tenure, he has not made any outstanding achievements, but he has not neglected his duties. He has been stable for decades because of his care and security.He also read this contract just now when he represented his family to change the chili seeds, and saw it back and forth several times. Now he focuses on the name on the back, not even the data.

Without it, since everyone listened to the contract and said that "the Chen family must buy peppers after they are planted", those who originally planned to plant half an acre, a small half acre, or even just a piece of land rushed home quickly, and then more. I brought some chili seeds here, just to make more money.Now here, except for Chen Xiangwen's family, the rest of the households are all neatly planted with an acre of peppers.

Therefore, for the sake of simplicity, Chen Chen did not fill in the number of acres in the back, but only wrote the name, and then summed it up as "all of the above are planted with one acre of spring peppers".

Therefore, there is no need to look at the quantity at all, just to see if the person has missed the name.

The village head and several captains stood together and counted, and finally said: "That's right, that's all."

Chen Chen handed over the pen, "Then trouble the village chief and several captains to sign a witness."

Several people readily signed and printed it.

Later, Chen Xiangwu also came over to sign and press the seal on behalf of the Chen family.

Looking at the signed contract, Chen Chen was in a good mood, "It's done."

The crowd also cheered inexplicably.

Seeing that Chen Chen had put the contract paper and pens into his bag, Mrs. Li pulled Chen Chen over and asked, "What about your aunt?"

Chen Chen looked calm, "When they arrive, write another contract."

Mrs. Li frowned, "Write another one?"

Chen Chen hummed and explained, "This contract was signed by all the people in our village, followed by the signatures of the village head and the captain on behalf of the village. Auntie and the others are not from Pingba Village, so I will write it separately." A contract is better."

After pondering for a while, Mrs. Li thought it made sense, "That's true, otherwise the village chief and the others signed it, and it wouldn't look like it."

After speaking, she looked out of the yard again, and said anxiously: "It's almost lunch time, why haven't they come yet?"

How could Chen Chen know, "It should be soon."

I don't know if it will be soon, but now that the pepper seeds have been changed, everyone can grow peppers with peace of mind. Everyone feels very happy, and even the pace of going back is brisk.

"I didn't expect the Chen family to write in some kind of contract that they must accept it. They are really not afraid."

"What are you afraid of?" Someone on the side said: "This is a great thing for us, we can't wait."

"That's true! At first I was worried that I didn't know how many peppers to plant, but now I'm fine. Of course, the more you plant, the better. After you sell it and get the money, it will be yours!"

"Once I get the money, I'm going to buy sugar and meat. Those two at home have been greedy for a long time!"

"My family is still different."

"..."

Everyone chatted as they walked, and the words they said were all about the beautiful yearning for the future.

And Chen Jianlan, who was missed by Mrs. Li, finally arrived at the entrance of Pingba Village.

Chen Jianlan was carrying a pannier, which contained pepper seeds to be replaced. Zheng Changhai walked here with her, but there was a large bruise on the corner of Zheng Changhai's chin and mouth, which looked a little swollen.

Chen Jianlan was talking about him right now, "I said I can come alone, what do you have to do with me?"

Zheng Changhai walked forward sullenly, "It's back and forth, I should also make a statement."

"Who are the people in the family, don't my parents know?" Chen Jianlan rolled his eyes frantically, "What's the use of you coming."

Zheng Changhai fell silent.

Chen Jianlan's heart was full of anger, and she wanted to curse, but seeing the bruise on Zheng Changhai's face, she held back abruptly, unable to feel at ease.

The two walked forward dully, and when they entered the village, they met some cheerful people who had just come out from the Chen family, and they had to pretend to be happy and enthusiastic.

The big guys have to support the Chen family at this moment, and they are already happy, so they have to smile at Chen Jianlan and Zheng Changhai, "Oh, Jianlan and Changhai are here, your mother and the others just missed you."

Chen Jianlan said, "I went out late this morning, and I'm only here now."

"It will take some time to come here." Seeing the injury on Zheng Changhai's face, someone couldn't help but ask, "Oh, what's wrong with Changhai's face?"

Zheng Changhai twitched the corner of his mouth and replied, "I bumped into it when I got up at night."

"Why don't you be careful! I'm sleepy now, I must turn off the light, otherwise it's so dark that it's easy to hit the wall!"

"I will know next time."

"..."

A group of people chattered a few words, Chen Jianlan was annoyed, and was really not in the mood to argue with them, so she said: "My mother and the others are waiting for us, let's go there first."

"...Then hurry up, you are missing."

The couple got rid of the people and walked towards Chen's house with big strides. They greeted people in a hurry when they met on the road, so they were asked about the wound on Zheng Changhai's face. Zheng Changhai lied With a guilty conscience, Chen Jianlan's heart became more and more uncomfortable.

After finally arriving at Chen Jian's party house, oh well, the Chen family also asked when they saw it.

It was Mrs. Li who asked, "Changhai, what's wrong with your face? Why is it bruised and swollen?"

Now Zheng Changhai didn't dare to lie anymore, so he could only vaguely say, "It's okay..."

Mrs. Li said anxiously: "I'm asking how you did it, it's all right now!"

Zheng Changhai was speechless.

The outsiders in the courtyard hadn't all left yet, and all of them were listening to the situation with their ears pricked up. Chen Jianlan had to be strong. No matter how troubled the family was, she didn't want to speak in front of outsiders, because it was embarrassing.

So she pulled Mrs. Li into the room, "He did it by accident, so don't ask, Mom."

Seeing Zheng Changhai's reluctant smile, Chen Chen interjected, "Uncle, you go into the house and drink some water. There is still some medicine for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis at home. I'll go and wipe it for you."

Zheng Changhai hurriedly said: "No, it will be fine by itself in two days."

"It's okay." Chen Chen said, "I bought it before, and there is still some left."

Speaking, Chen Chen didn't wait for Zheng Changhai to stop him, and ran home again. When he came back, he bumped into the village chief and several captains who were going back at the door, and heard the village chief say from a distance: "In the afternoon When you come over again, we will make a total calculation."

Several team leaders said "success".

When we met, Chen Chen asked, "Village chief, is there something wrong in the village?"

"Something." The village chief said, "We are discussing it."

Chen Chen didn't ask much about the affairs between the village officials.

After entering the yard, the people who were still there before have almost dispersed now.Except for Chen Jiandang and his big family, only Chen Jianjun, Chen Jianye and Chen Qian were there, and the others packed up the things they had just used and went home.

There was thick smoke coming out of the chimney above the kitchen. It was Du Juan and Yang Chunmei who were lighting the fire for lunch.

Chen Ming and Chen Qian stood by the wooden wall next to the kitchen, Chen Qian said: "It seems that there is something wrong."

Chen Ming frowned and said, "I was fine the day before yesterday."

Chen Qian also frowned, "Can't it be because of the replacement of chili seeds?"

Chen Chen also wanted to know if it was because of the chili seeds that he made his face like that.Zheng Changhai made it himself?The possibility of this is really low.

But Chen Chen held his breath, took the medicine in, faced everyone's gazes, walked straight to Zheng Changhai, twisted the lid and said: "Uncle, this medicine hurts a little, you have to bear it. "

Zheng Changhai said: "I don't think there is any need to rub it. A small injury will heal within two days."

Chen Jianlan sneered instantly, "It will be over in two days? You don't even look in the mirror to see what the hell your face looks like now."

It's a person who can now see that something is wrong, and everyone's eyes are on Chen Jianlan and Zheng Changhai for a while.

Seeing her daughter's resentment, Mrs. Li worried that she would be bullied, so she hurriedly asked, "What's going on?"
