Back to 80s bride

Chapter 27: Finally the Zhang Family

Chen Minghui didn't have breakfast the next day, so he went to the train station to buy a ticket for [-] o'clock the next morning. The pre-purchased ticket was returned by him after the clothing business was finalized, and he spent a few dollars in handling fees.

Holding this return ticket in his hand, Chen Minghui was very happy and indescribably sour.I can finally go home.It's strange to say that in his previous life, he also fought alone, wandering around, and wherever he drifted, he was home.But now, he has only been out for more than two months, and his life is not too hard. He misses his family so impatiently, and he seems so eager that he can't wait for a second.

Unknowingly, he rubbed a good ticket until it became old. Chen Minghui hurriedly picked up the ticket, found a roadside stall, drank a bowl of soy milk and ate four deep-fried dough sticks, and then went to the department store.

Chen Minghui didn't rush to buy things first, but went to Fan Chunjuan's place first.

Fan Chunjuan opened her eyes wide in surprise and said, "Why are you here?"

Just as Chen Minghui was about to answer, a sharp female voice sounded behind him, "Little bastard, why are you here again? Didn't Manager Ma say he won't sell your stuff?"

Chen Minghui raised his eyebrows, it seemed that the lesson he taught her last time was not enough, he turned around to look at Zhao Pei but was stunned.

Not seeing her for more than a month, Zhao Pei changed drastically.In the past, although she was thin, with a mean face and sharp-mouthed monkey cheeks, she still had a self-righteous arrogance to support her.Although she is still trying her best to maintain that pride, her whole body presents a kind of decadence and gloom, as if she has been living in depression all year round.

"Fan Chunjuan, let me tell you that this young man is a relative of Manager Ma's family. What happened last time was a joke between his uncle and nephew, so you take it seriously." Zhao Pei sneered.

"What, how is it possible?" Zhao Pei yelled in disbelief, "Why didn't I know that Manager Ma had such a relative?"

Now it's not just Fan Chunjuan, but the woman at the counter next to her also sarcastically said: "Zhao Pei, what you said is ridiculous, who are you from Manager Ma, and you have to review any relatives in Manager Ma's family? You really don't want it." Face, this is really thinking that I am too young, and I have inserted my hands into other people's relatives!"

Zhao Pei's face turned pale, "I said it was his nonsense, I never did it, I just wanted to take Manager Ma's car home, he is my brother-in-law, what's wrong with giving me a ride along the way, and me Didn't put an arm around his waist."

I have explained it many times, but no one listens. These people always beat her with words when they have nothing to do. The rumors are almost driving her crazy.

Zhao Pei shouted hysterically: "Explain to them, tell them that you are slandering me, hurry up, explain quickly. I can't take it anymore, I've had enough." As he spoke, he grabbed up madly.

Being dodged by Chen Minghui, Zhao Pei's appearance did not soften Chen Minghui's heart, he had nothing to soften his heart.When this woman framed him back then, did she ever think that he would have to support his family at a young age, and if he lost this source of income, how would the big family behind him live?If he is unlucky, or changes to an honest person who really has a family to support, will it really ruin Zhao Pei's family?

Now all this can only be her retribution.

Chen Minghui sneered, "What am I explaining, I just said what I saw, that is, you insisted on sitting on Manager Ma's back seat and tried to hug Manager Ma's waist, but Manager Ma avoided him and made a cold face Thrusted down. That's all I saw."

"It's not seduction after all this, so what is it? You have to take off, get naked, lie on the bed, and be seduced."

"It's disgusting..."

For such a long time, Zhao Pei's popularity is still as bad as ever, nothing has changed.Chen Minghui couldn't wait to see her continue, so he said to Fan Chunjuan: "Aunt Fan, I'm going back to my hometown tomorrow, and I'll come here to say goodbye to you."

Fan Chunjuan said, "Why don't you do business?"

"I'm still a student, and I'm going to take the high school entrance examination in a few days."

"It's no wonder Manager Ma is so angry. It's no wonder that you played truant after you said that."

Chen Zhihui nodded with a smile, chatted with Fan Chunjuan and left.

The department store in Haishi has more things than the ones in their town. They have everything, and it's not like the ones in the town are always out of stock. If there is no sugar today, there will be no sesame oil.

Now that he has money and tickets, he can buy whatever he likes.

At this time, people have no taste in their mouths, just lack of meat and sweetness. Three catties of white rabbit toffee, and another catty of hard fruit candy.Buy two cans of malted milk. At this time, people usually buy malted milk for the elderly and babies at home, but Chen Minghui knows that it is considered a nutritional product, and Qian Yu can drink it.Qian Yu's small body is too thin and needs to be mended.

There are also dried clams, frozen shrimp, beef jerky, and sausages. I bought two catties of these things.There are also some preserved fruits, pastries and bread that they don't have there. Chen Minghui bought a lot.In addition, I bought a few bars of soap, which were also available in the department store in the town, but Chen Minghui bought them here anyway. Looking at the packaging, he felt that the ones in Haishi were better than the ones in his house.

Unknowingly walking to the watch area, Chen Minghui's eyes fell on it, and the two waiters sitting beside him didn't move. The main reason was that Chen Minghui's clothes were too shabby, and he didn't look like he could afford it.

Chen Minghui asked: "How do you sell this watch?"

The two waiters bowed their heads to knit their sweaters, but no one answered him.

Chen Minghui had to ask again, "How do you sell the watch?"

After asking twice in a row, it was really hard to pretend not to hear, and one of the waiters had no choice but to speak up: "140 five for one, one industrial ticket."

Another waiter rolled his eyes and said in a low voice: "Why are you talking to him? You can tell by his poor appearance that you can't afford it. If you pretend to be rich and ask a few questions, you will have to find a reason to leave. Are there few people, you are willing to talk to him."

I have encountered this kind of thing a lot. After looking at thirteen dollars, I will not buy it. I have to find an excuse to say how about their things, and never mention that I have no money or tickets.If there are too many people like this, the waiters will get annoyed, and subconsciously develop the habit of judging whether a person has the ability to buy by looking at their clothes.Even though it was clear that Chen Minghui was a poor man, one of the waiters showed him the watch.

In fact, Chen Minghui can afford it. He also has industrial tickets in his hand. When he sells clothes, he pays special attention to collecting industrial tickets. The price is half cheaper if he buys clothes with industrial tickets, so some people are still willing to buy industrial tickets. for shopping.

He wanted to buy a watch, but not for himself, but for Qian Yu.It is quite enviable to be able to wear a watch at this time, especially if you are a student, even a worker who is working can wear a Shanghai brand watch.And he wanted to save Qian Yu's face. Qian Yu has been too shameless these years, so he should have some face.

Thinking of this, Chen Minghui no longer hesitated, "Give me one, this is a ticket." He counted out the money and gave it to the waiter.

The waiter thought he was just having a sex addiction, but he actually asked for it. Instead, he was shocked. After realizing it, he hurriedly collected the money, took out the watch box, packed it, and packed it.

Chen Minghui walked away with the watch and vaguely heard two waiters talking about him, "I didn't expect to buy it, I thought he couldn't buy it."

"I bought [-]% of them as a gift. People who wear this kind of clothes are willing to wear them themselves. It is more cost-effective to buy some food."

"But I see that he bought a lot of things in his hand, such as candies and pastries..."

Later, Chen Minghui couldn't hear it anymore. After buying some food, he went to Thursday's place and asked him to make two new sets of clothes for him and Qian Yu from the inside out. In addition, he asked Thursday to make special clothes for them. I bought two messenger bags, the army green one is the most popular style.Then I went to the leather shoe store and bought two pairs of leather shoes.

The owner of the leather shoe store had a good impression of Chen Minghui, and he liked this young man who could endure hardships and was willing to work, so he talked a lot: "What size can you buy? You young people are growing up, and you have one shoe size a year. If you eat well, grow fast, and buy the right one, you won’t be able to wear it the next year.”

Chen Minghui thought about the reasoning and said, "Then just give me two pairs of big and two sizes."

The boss kept shaking his head, "That's not going to happen. If you really grow fast, you may not be able to wear them for more than a year. These are all good leather shoes. It's absolutely fine to wear them for six or seven years. You can wear them again." Buy bigger."

The quality of the leather shoes at this time is really good, and it will be no problem to wear them for six or seven years.But he didn't want Qian Yu to wear a pair of shoes for so long, just two years.Furthermore, the shoes are too big and do not follow the feet. No matter how good the shoes themselves are, if they don’t fit, it’s like a child wearing adult shoes, or picking up someone else’s shoes and wearing them. There is always a feeling of awkwardness and poverty.He doesn't want Qian Yu to be looked down upon anymore, he only wants him to get better, he works so hard to make money to support his family, isn't it just to give Qian Yu a good life.

Chen Minghui didn't explain it either, and said with a smile, "Two sizes up is fine, a thick insole and cotton socks are just right."

The boss didn't try to persuade him anymore. Chen Minghui stuffed the two pairs of leather shoes into his bag and went back to Ma's house after seeing that it was getting late.

Chen Minghui also brought food to Ma's family, hardware pork, two catties of sugar, and two catties of pastries.

Aunt Hong saw that he brought in a bunch of them, and couldn't help complaining, "What are you doing, you only made some money and then ruined it like this, you won't study anymore."

Chen Minghui smiled: "It's okay, just order something."

Ma Chaoyue said: "Okay, it's also Xiaohui's kindness. If you give it to you, you can keep it. I just made it at night and asked Xiaohui to eat it together."

Only then did Aunt Hong laugh, "Okay, Aunt Hong will do it for you."

The meal at night was a practice. Aunt Hong showed her housekeeping skills, and Chen Minghui was not polite, and she was full. On the second day, Ma Chaoyue didn't go to the department store and sent Chen Minghui to the train station.

"Take a good exam. Uncle Ma is waiting for your good news. You have been admitted to a good high school and then go to college. Your Uncle Ma will take your aunts to your house for a drink." Ma Chaoyue took Chen Minghui's two I handed him a big bag, knowing that it contained the things he bought in the department store, so I didn't care too much or anything.

Not to mention that this child is the savior of his family, but to say that it is not easy for this child to make money, and he does not know how to make money. Besides, he is also a manager of a department store who earns a lot, and he does not need to count the money earned by a child. Too incompetent.

But Chen Minghui didn’t buy anything but left money. He originally wanted to buy some food, but later realized that he didn’t have many food stamps, and he and Qian Yu would need them in the future. They went to school and had no place to earn money, and Ma Chaoyue was a worker. You can get it every month, so you don't have to buy food.Tickets are required for everything you buy these days, and he doesn't have any other tickets. After thinking about it, he kept the money.

It's just that I didn't say it before, because I was afraid that Ma Chaoyue would not want it, and now we were going to separate, so Chen Minghui said it.

"Uncle Ma, I left an envelope under the cushion of your sofa, which contained five hundred yuan. It's a little bit of my heart, so don't dislike it if you take it."

Ma Chaoyue immediately refused, and wanted to return it to him in his pocket, but how could he carry so much money with him, and it was only a dozen yuan if he searched all over his body.

He couldn't help saying angrily: "You child clearly knows that making money is not easy, but you still leave me so much money, why are you so extravagant, you and your brother can't live anymore."

"Life is necessary, but I can't make money without Uncle Ma's help. Uncle Ma deserves the money. Our relatives, uncles and nephews settle accounts clearly, and one yard is one yard."

"What are you talking about, you kid? It's still your own ability. I'm just pulling a line in the middle to build a bridge. In the final analysis, you have worked so hard to recite the things to Zhushi and sell them on your own ability. If you change someone else, the same way will be the same. You can't make that much money."

"Uncle Ma, what you said is simple, but without the bridge you built, I can't get across the mountains of gold and silver on the opposite side, so I can only watch." Chen Minghui said decisively: "You must keep it, otherwise I will be embarrassed to come over during the summer vacation. It's business."

"Are you still coming after the exam?"

"Come on, I plan to go out to work during the winter and summer vacations, so that I won't run out of money when I start school."

"Well, then Uncle Ma is waiting for you." This meant to accept it, Chen Minghui heaved a sigh of relief and smiled easily.

In this way, even if he and Ma Chaoyue are mutually beneficial, although there may be people following him, it is not that big.

When the train arrived, Chen Minghui put his backpack on his back and waved goodbye to Ma Chaoyue before leaving.

The train was reversed halfway, and it took six days and seven nights to finally reach the town.

Chen Minghui came back quietly without telling Qian Yu, and planned to give him a surprise, so when he returned to Wu's house, only Mr. Wu and Mrs. Wu were there. The two of them were stunned when they saw Chen Minghui who suddenly appeared at the door of the house full of dust.

"Is this Chen Minghui's return?" Although Chen Minghui didn't stay at home for a few days, he was very peaceful just for a few days, so the two old people were not so afraid of him.

Chen Minghui smiled, "Well, I went out for something a few days ago, did Xiaoyu go to school?"

Old man Wu nodded, "This kid probably doesn't know you're coming back today, or he might ask for leave to pick you up. You don't know that he doesn't have much appetite for thinking about you recently."

Chen Minghui frowned, "Is he thin?"

Old man Wu thought about it carefully, "It doesn't seem to be. Although he has no appetite recently, you left a lot of food. He eats well, but he is not thin." After speaking, he hurriedly said, "But he is not fat."

When Chen Minghui left, there were not many things left behind, but in this era of scarcity of supplies, few families could eat big fish and meat every now and then, so it was a lot of things.

But Chen Minghui was not someone else's family. He didn't think there were too many things at all. Hearing Mr. Wu's words, he put his backpack in the room, rushed into the kitchen, and found that the meat was eaten, but the eggs were still there, and he had already grabbed a basket.When he left, he left money for the neighbor's aunt and asked her to deliver it on time. Now that he has so much, he must not be willing to eat it.As for eating all the meat, it should be because he is afraid that he will not come back for a long time and it will be broken.

Immediately, I felt a wave of anger rushing straight to the top of my head.He urged thousands of times, and he followed the yin and yang in the end.He worked so hard to make money outside, for what reason, so that Qian Yu could eat well, dress well, and take care of his body. As a result, he just ruined his body and didn't eat anything.In this way, what is the point of his hard work to make money.

Chen Minghui was so angry that he wished he could drag Qian Yu back, stripped off his pants and beat his ass hard, and then watched him eat all the eggs in one go.

However, Chen Minghui was just so angry that he walked around the house a few times before dissipating. After he dissipated, his heart felt sore again.In the final analysis, the family was too poor, so Qian Yu was reluctant to eat a few eggs and insisted on keeping them for him.It seems that he has to step up his efforts to make money, and try to make Qian Yu believe that he can support him as soon as possible, and that he can eat whatever he likes.

Chen Minghui looked through the rice noodles at home, not the ones he left behind when he left, but the newly bought corn noodles.Chen Minghui sighed deeply, got up and took the ticket and money to the supply and marketing agency to buy food.

"Five catties of white flour and five catties of rice."

"Ten catties of food stamps, six yuan and eighty cents." The waiter poked his head behind the counter and looked at him suspiciously. This man is so poorly dressed that he has the money to buy fine rice noodles.You must know that coarse grains are much cheaper than fine rice and noodles. Poor people always switch to coarse grains in order to eat for two more days.

Chen Minghui didn't care about the waiter's attitude, took the money ticket, saw that the pork on the chopping board was good, and said, "Give me two catties of pork belly." He then handed the meat ticket and money to the waiter.

Chen Minghui now has food stamps and meat stamps, and he accepts all kinds of stamps for business, not just fabric stamps.In fact, what he wanted most were food stamps and meat stamps, because they were canceled late, and he would have to use them for a long time, but cloth stamps were different, and they would be canceled next year.So when Chen Minghui was selling things, he secretly urged the sellers to get more tickets, but he also collected a lot, which was enough for a while.

It's enough to buy this little stuff now, but now people are poor, and Chen Minghui's purchases like this are a big deal, which attracted a few people to discuss secretly.

"Isn't the one who bought the meat just now the orphan Chen Minghui from the village? Where did he get the money and tickets? How dare he spend it so recklessly."

"Who knows, that's a bum. I don't know what kind of sneaky things he did. Otherwise, where would he get the money to buy food?"

"No, I heard that he sold the old house left to him by his grandfather. If that's the case, it would make sense."

"Yo, not just sneaking around, but also a prodigal..."

These few people who recognized Chen Minghui were from the village.They were discussing lively, but they didn't notice that a shadow hiding in the dark was listening carefully with ears pricked up. When they heard that Chen Minghui had bought a house, the shadow disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Chen Minghui didn't notice the sneaky figure, but he heard the discussion behind him.

But he doesn't care, let alone take it to heart.

When I got back to Wu's house, I boiled hot water and brought it into the house to wash my body.Although it was a bit cold in the room, Chen Minghui still shivered and washed himself clean, and specially slapped himself with soap, and then carefully smelled it on his skin, making sure that his body was stained with the scent of clean soap, and then nodded in satisfaction.

I have to sleep with my daughter-in-law in my arms at night, but I don’t want my daughter-in-law to be vomited by the smell of sweat on my body as soon as I put my arms in my arms. Smell.

Chen Minghui thought happily, washing himself even cleaner.After taking a shower, I shivered and dug out the newly made underwear in my backpack and changed into new sweaters and pants.Chen Minghui was already handsome, so wearing it like this made him even more handsome and dazzling.People who didn't know saw it and definitely thought it was a child from a cadre family.

After taking a bath, Chen Minghui was not idle. He chopped the stuffing from the dough, rolled the dough to make dumplings, and squeezed out one after a while. The dumplings he made had thin skins and big fillings. Each of them looked like a small ingot, and it was pleasing to look at.

Old Man Wu When old man Wu saw that he came back with the meat, he knew that he would cook something delicious tonight, so he deliberately made it early at home and poured it out of the kitchen.

So when Qian Yu came home empty-handed with his schoolbag on his back, as soon as he opened the door, he saw Chen Minghui, who was wearing brand-new and beautiful new clothes, grinning at him with two big plates of dumplings in his hand.

Qian Yu stood stunned on the ground, dazed and unresponsive, until Chen Minghui put the dumplings into the house in a panic, pulled Qian Yu and asked anxiously: "Xiaoyu, what's wrong with you, who bullied you, huh? Tell me, and I'll make the decision for you."

The real warmth in his hands brought back his trance-like mind, Qian Yu finally couldn't hold back, and cried bitterly while hugging Chen Minghui.

"You, it's you, you are bullying me." Qian Yu was out of breath from crying, but he hugged Chen Minghui tightly with his hands, and buried his face in his chest, "Didn't you say you would come back in a month? It's been more than two months, and you didn't write to me in advance when you came back, you know how anxious I am."

Qian Yu cried so loudly that he made old man Wu and Mrs. Wu come out.

"What's the matter with these two brothers? Why is Xiaoyu still crying?" The fifth old lady poked her head out and said, "Chen Minghui, Xiaoyu is a very good child. What's wrong with him? You can reason with him. You can listen, but don’t move. Xiaoyu’s thin body can’t even resist your fist.”

Chen Minghui smiled wryly, "Don't worry, Aunt Wu, I won't hit Xiaoyu, it's because I came back late and got angry with me."

Qian Yu's face was flushed, some were crying and some were ashamed. He was so anxious that he forgot that this was the Wu family, and old man Wu and Mrs. Wu were also at home.He wiped away his tears, yelled and rushed into the house, but he couldn't come out even after being beaten to death.It's too embarrassing to see people.

Looking at the embarrassing person, Chen Minghui smiled dotingly, went to the kitchen and twisted a towel and came in, "Wipe your face, and scold me after you eat the dumplings. They are still hot when they come out of the pan, and they won't taste good when they get cold."

Qian Yu wasn't really angry at first, so he wiped his hands and face awkwardly, and was held by Chen Minghui to the table.

"Try it, how does the dumpling I made taste like?"

Qian Yu had eaten the dumplings made by Chen Minghui, but last time it was pork sauerkraut, which was delicious.It was only when he took a bite of this time and this time, that Qian Yu realized that there is no best taste, only better taste.

A bright smell filled the buds, a delicacy he had never tasted before.He hurriedly looked down and saw that it was made of pork, egg and shrimp.

Qian Yu cried out: "Shrimp, where did you get the shrimp?"

Because they are not close to the sea, prawns are not easy to eat, especially in this season.

"The sea market is close to the sea, and even this season there are seafood products. These are frozen shrimp brought back from the sea market. The weather is cold, and I won't melt when I come back by train."

In this day and age, trains don’t have air-conditioning, and the heating in winter depends on human shaking, so the shrimps are thrown into the backpack and placed on the shelf without melting all the way.
