Survival skills maxed out, I feed my wife and daughter by catching fish and shrimp

Gulu!

Shen Cuiyun originally wanted to grit her teeth and say that she was not hungry, but her stomach was really uncooperative, and this time she cried out in front of Erlang.

On weekdays, he would definitely curse himself as a "starving ghost reincarnated" and then put away all the food without any hesitation.

But today, Erlang actually smiled.

Not only did he smile, he also filled two bowls of crucian carp soup and pushed the bowl with more meat in front of his wife.

"Eat first, there will be something to do later."

After Chen Changfan said this, he lowered his head and sipped the fish soup in the bowl, squinting his eyes comfortably.

My wife’s cooking skills are really good!

The fish soup has no fishy smell, but is very delicious.

Shen Cuiyun didn't dare to eat it, but waited for a few seconds.

Don't make up your mind until you are sure that the other person is not joking.

He quickly took a big sip of the fish soup and swallowed it.

I don’t know why this man suddenly changed his temper today. He is not afraid of being eaten by her!

Then eat quickly and fill your stomach first!

After eating and drinking, she saw Chen Changfan get up and close the temple door, and he also made a special effort to confirm that there was no one nearby.

Only then did he recall what Chen Erlang had just said.

Did he just say "I have something to do later"?

Is he thinking about that...

It’s still broad daylight!

Shen Cuiyun's cheeks suddenly flushed.

While he was daydreaming, Chen Changfan had already started unbuckling his belt.

Shen Cuiyun's face suddenly turned hot and she clutched her collar nervously.

Although Erlang seemed to have suddenly become a better person, she still felt a little resistant in her heart as they had not had sex for a long time.

Just as her heart was pounding, Chen Changfan took out a cloth bag from his waist, weighed it and threw it to her.

Shen Cuiyun took it subconsciously, opened it and saw that it was full of copper coins!

How many copper coins does this cost?

20 wen? 30 wen?

Shen Cuiyun felt dizzy.

Don't underestimate 20 coins. They were enough to buy four liters of brown rice, enough to feed their family for more than a month!

If you want to rent a house in the village, 20 cents is enough for a month's rent.

But Shen Cuiyun was just thinking about it. Renting a house? What kind of family would that require?

Now she is very content to be able to live in this dilapidated temple without being bullied or beaten by her parents-in-law.

I dare not expect more!

"Cuiyun, I want to discuss with you about using this money to rent a house. What do you think?"

Chen Changfan went straight to the point.

I looked around but couldn't find a door that could be closed tightly.

Not only is it dilapidated and leaky, but there is no guarantee of safety.

The fact that Chen Dalang came over to steal the pot today was a wake-up call for him.

If I leave my wife and daughter in this dilapidated temple and they really meet some bad guys, it will be too late to regret it.

The reason why he was saving money and didn't dare to spend it was that he wanted to find a decent house as soon as possible to accommodate Cuiyun and Luoluo.

After all, among the necessities of life, food and housing are the most basic guarantees of survival.

When Shen Cuiyun saw that Chen Erlang was really discussing something with her, she suddenly became bolder.

His big eyes rolled around and he listed several rental houses in Dahe Village in one breath.

"There's an old house owned by Butcher Zhang at the west end of the village, an empty house owned by Old Man Li to the south, and Grandma Cui's old house has been vacant for years."

Seeing his wife talking about it like she knew everything, Chen Changfan knew that Shen Cuiyun had wanted to separate and live separately for a long time, but she had never had the opportunity, and the original owner was also not very good.

So she kept this matter to herself.

Because she knew that even if she said it, her man would not follow her wishes, so why bother making herself unhappy?

"As you can see, which rental house do you think is better?"

Chen Changfan guessed that Shen Cuiyun had already made up her mind, which saved him the trouble of going out and asking everyone one by one.

"Butcher Zhang's old house is quite good. Although it's a bit old, the materials used are solid and there won't be any major problems. Besides, the house is big and the yard is also big."

Shen Cuiyun said fluently, with a hint of longing in her eyes.

"Okay! Then choose this one. I'll go talk to Butcher Zhang about the price."

Chen Changfan stood up and was about to leave.

"Erlang, do you really want to rent a house?" Shen Cuiyun still finds it unbelievable.

"Do you think I'm making fun of you?" Chen Changfan asked with a smile.

"Then I'll go with you."

Shen Cuiyun picked up Luoluo, who was still sleeping, and got up to follow.

……

The appearance of Zhang the Butcher was not what Chen Changfan had imagined. He thought that butchers were all big, strong men with beards, but Zhang the Butcher was short and had a kind face.

When the young couple came over, he was cutting up the meat. The five-inch sharp knife was as nimble as a fish in his hand, moving back and forth in the half pork, and in a short while, all the flesh and bones were separated.

"Good sword skills!"

Chen Changfan's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but whisper something.

"It's Chen Jia Erlang, are you here to buy meat?"

When someone praised him, a hint of pride flashed across Zhang the Butcher's face.

But when he saw that the person coming was the coward Chen Erlang, the smile disappeared from his face.

They say good news doesn't travel far, but bad news travels a thousand miles.

After Chen Erlang separated from the family, Zhang often cursed in the streets of the village, accusing Chen Erlang of being unfilial and cursing her second daughter-in-law for being unruly.

The two of them had no idea that their reputation had been completely ruined by Zhang as soon as they left home.

"We'll talk about buying meat later."

Chen Changfan was actually a little craving for meat, but the most important thing now was to rent a house.

Hearing that they weren't here to buy meat, the butcher Zhang's disdain grew even stronger. He slammed his knife down on the chopping board and said indifferently, "Then take care, the two of you. I'm still busy selling meat."

Chen Changfan didn't get angry either. He smiled and said, "I heard that Butcher Zhang has an old house that's empty. He wanted to ask you if you want to rent it out. Since you're busy, forget it."

"Hey! Wait!"

When Butcher Zhang heard that he was here to rent a house, he immediately smiled and said, "Why didn't you tell me you were here earlier? I happen to be free now."

As he said this, he called his wife to look after the meat stall, and then he washed his hands and brought Chen Erlang and his family to the old house.

The couple knew they had come to the right place at first sight.

Most of the houses in Dahe Village are thatched with adobe walls, but this old house has a tiled roof and stone walls.

Although most of the tiles have disappeared and the walls have peeled off due to years of disrepair, the beams are still stable and the walls are still relatively solid.

As long as it is carefully renovated, it can be a nice place to live.

The couple looked at each other, obviously very satisfied. The next step was how to bargain.

"Butcher Zhang, I heard your old house hasn't been rented out for years. Is there something wrong with it?"

Chen Changfan showed a bit of suspicion, "Could it be something unclean?"

"impossible!"

Butcher Zhang stared, "This old house of ours is considered a good house in our Dahe Village. Look at these big tiled roofs, these big beams, and this big yard. It's definitely comfortable to live in."

"Forget about the tiled house! There are only a few tiles left. You might as well repair the house. It's really uninhabitable now."

Chen Changfan continued to criticize the house so that he could lower the price later.

Butcher Zhang glanced at the bare roof and scratched his head embarrassedly.

It’s not like he hasn’t thought about repairing it, but wouldn’t that cost money?

His wife is a Pixiu, so he can't get a single cent out of her.

"Repairing a house is too much trouble. I don't have time to bother with that. Do you want to rent it or not? The rent is at least 30 cents a month!"

In the end, Zhang the butcher couldn't hold it in any longer and was the first to give a price.

The couple looked at each other and felt that this was a possibility.
