In the end, Mother Chen and Chen Xiao were the ones who cleaned up the house. Father Chen wanted them to help, but when they saw how dirty the house was, they felt backaches, colds, and children. A group of people stood in the yard don't move.
The house Chen Xiao bought came with a yard. The yard is not big. Although it can't grow vegetables or raise chickens, it's good to bask in the sun and have a cup of tea in summer.
Father Chen didn't get angry when he saw them like this, and he didn't want them to be an eyesore. After discussing with Chen Xiao and taking them home, he went home.
In this era, there are very few households with tap water installed, and it is either expensive or rich. Ordinary people have a well for each household.
Chen's mother, Chen Xiao, cleaned the inside and outside of the house with well water, wiped down the table and so on. The well water was warm and clear. After a day, the house was clean, but she was very tired, and Ding Xiaoman was not idle. , to buy them a meal, and put away all the daily necessities brought at home.
Three rooms, a living room, a kitchen, and a bedroom. As for the toilet, there is no one at present, so we can only go to the public toilet. Fortunately, the toilet is not far away.
After packing up everything, it was already getting dark, and the three of them hurriedly packed up and went home by car. When they got out of the car, watching Ding Xiaoman cross the bridge, Chen Xiao's heart beat faster again, thinking, in the future, we must let She had a good life.
Ding's mother used to cross the bridge like this. Seeing that her son's distressed expression was carved out of the same mold as his father's back then, she laughed secretly in her heart, like a father, like a son.
When Mother Chen came home, she thought she was greeted with hot soup and hot rice, but it turned out to be cold pot and cold stove.
And the house is pitch-black, with only the flickering red flames. Looking closer, it turned out to be Chen's father's pipe. There are also Chen Fugui's family, big and small.
Father Chen saw that Mother Chen had returned, and said, "Old woman, my second brother wants three rooms in our family. What do you think?"
Those who should come will come, the three rooms are beautiful.
When Chen's mother heard this, she lost her temper. God knows that he and the old man saved such a house brick by brick. They have mixed up with this house all these years. Before they lived in it for a few years, someone thought about it. Three rooms will be returned at once. Why not God.
"If you don't give it, why give it to them." He vetoed it.
"Sister-in-law, you are wrong. Our family is in a disaster and we come to you. Are you not willing to give us three rooms? There are seven people in our family, so it is reasonable to say that three rooms are still less!" The corner of his mouth curled.
"Second uncle, you are wrong. This house was saved by my parents little by little. You want to divide the house after you have paid for it. Could it be that our family is in trouble and you go to you, and you will give us a share?" house?
I heard that the government has already started to deal with the matter of Chenjia Village. It seems that a family subsidizes 100 yuan! That being the case, we can give the house, so you can share half of the subsidy with us! "Chen Xiao said while helping Ding Xiaoman to sit down. "I think fifty yuan is enough for our house to build three more rooms in the east. "
Upon hearing this, the Chen family felt as if they had won the Mark Six lottery, and the whole group was overjoyed. 100 yuan, what kind of concept is this, their family earns less than half of it for a year of hard work!
"Nephew, is what you said true?" Chen Fugui looked at him eagerly, and Chen Xiao nodded: "I heard that from others." Of course he heard what his wife said! As for where his daughter-in-law heard about it, he didn't know.
"That's great," Chen Fugui turned his head, "Since that's the case, I won't be at your house anymore, you can take care of us for a few more days, and we will leave when the government pays us and we will definitely not bother your family."
"It's ok, that's it. We don't need more money from the second-class government, just give us 10 yuan, and it will be enough for you to pay for food and accommodation these days." Chen's mother said.
"Why are you so shameless? We only live in your house for a few days and you still charge for food and accommodation. Are you still my father's brother?" Chen Hu finally couldn't help but began to express his opinions. "That's right, thanks to you, I'm still a real brother, so I have to pay for food and accommodation just to stay at your house for two days." Chen Fugui also began to agree.
"Then do you know how much you spent going to the county today? One cent per person is one yuan and two. Since we are brothers, please return this money to us!" Chen's mother said.
Now Chen Fugui was silent, and Chen Hu told his father to be silent, "Auntie, how could you do this, I've never heard of it, and relatives have to pay for it when they come to visit."
"You haven't heard of me, but I have, but I haven't heard of the reason why relatives have to pay when you come to a relative's house."
When Chen Hu heard this, he immediately panicked, "Auntie, don't we have no money? If I have money, we will come to you?"
"?, I don¡¯t believe you when you say you don¡¯t have any money. Although you have come here for refuge, I can see that you all have ruddy complexions except that your clothes are tattered and dirty. It doesn¡¯t look like your family has suffered a disaster. The milk powder for your son is good milk powder for three yuan a bottle! It's not like having no money. "
"Auntie, we would rather lose ourselves than our children. You see, your daughter-in-law is about to give birth. Do you want to give your grandson cheap milk powder? It must be good!"
"It's nice to say that even if you have money to eat expensive milk powder, it means that you are still rich! And we don't ask for more. We don't care about your food and housing. Are you willing to give it 10 yuan? They say that brothers still pay It's clear to settle accounts, and it stands to reason that my old man still cut off ties with you, it is our affection for us to care about you, and it is also our duty to care about you."
Well said, hearing this Ding Xiaoman really wanted to applaud his mother-in-law, why didn't she find out that her mother-in-law is so powerful in fighting before!
"Okay, okay, sister-in-law, you are a good person. You can't tolerate your own younger brother like this. Big brother, you also have to say something! The third brother doesn't care about us, doesn't it mean that the elder brother doesn't want to care about us?" Chen Fugui pointed at Chen Zhuang's nose scolded. Chen Zhuang didn't say a word, just kept smoking his dry tobacco.
"In that case, we only need three houses, and you don't need to take care of the rest."
Chen Xiao couldn't stand it anymore, "Second Uncle, I'll call you Second Uncle, so don't embarrass my dad. Xiaoman is about to give birth, and there is no money for milk powder and clothes after giving birth. Xiaoman and I will not pay for this year I don¡¯t have a job, I eat everything from my parents, and my family relies on this one-third of an acre of land. You can tell how much my second uncle can earn in a year. I have a younger brother who is not married. This house will also be his new house in the future. You say If you want to live here, you can stay with me in the future. Let¡¯s go to the county to find a job, whether it¡¯s building a house or resisting sacks. Is there a dead end? For your family, if my family is destroyed, can Second Uncle feel at ease?"
"You, you, you," Chen Fugui pointed at Chen Xiao, speechless.
"Okay, just follow what A Xiao said, don't even think about the house. If you want to stay, you can. Tomorrow you and Chen Hu will go to the county to do odd jobs. Except for those who take care of children and pregnant women, everyone else will go to the farm with me." Father Chen finally spoke. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
