Rebirth 60: After the separation, he took his wife to eat delicious food
Chapter 22 Mobilization Meeting
Chen Shan felt bad when being scolded by others.
Now Li Qinfen is also pointing at his nose and scolding him. If he continues to endure it, he will not be a man.
Thinking of this, Chen Shan was furious and raised his hand to slap Li Qinfen in the face.
"You spendthrift woman! What's the point of buying so much cloth? Can it be eaten?"
Li Qinfen was stunned, her face full of disbelief.
"You hit me? You actually hit me?"
"Okay, Chen Shan! I just bought two pieces of cloth. Why are you beating me for this? I want to go back to my parents' home!"
After saying that, Li Qinfen hugged the cloth and ran away without looking back.
Li Qinfen is not stupid. If she goes back with Chen Shan now, she will definitely be scolded by Zhang Guixiang. It would be better for her to take the cloth back to her parents' home!
Chen Yuan watched Li Qinfen and Chen Shan quarreling, and thought to himself: Serves them right!
The Chen family would feel uncomfortable if they didn't take advantage of him for a day, and they were thinking about how to plot against him every day!
It seems that the Chen family’s New Year celebrations this year will be very “wonderful!”
There was no vinegar and soy sauce at home, so Chen Yuan took a cloth and bought two glass bottles from another counter and filled them with vinegar and soy sauce.
There were few types of candies at that time, so Chen Yuan only bought two yuan worth of fruit candies and took them home for Yiyi to eat.
After spending money at the black market and the supply and marketing cooperative, only twenty yuan was left of the original thirty-two yuan.
Chen Yuan put the money and tickets in his pocket and left the county town.
Now every time I come to the county, I walk, and it takes more than four hours to go there and back.
Chen Yuan was thinking that once he saved more money, he would find a way to get a bicycle.
When Chen Yuan arrived at Chenjia Village, it was lunch time.
The villagers were all at home having lunch and there was no one on the road, so Chen Yuan went straight home from the village entrance without taking a detour.
At home, Sun Weiwei was crocheting socks with the remaining wool. Chen Yuan was going to participate in winter fishing tomorrow, and knitting a pair of woolen socks would be just right to keep him warm.
"Honey, I'm back."
Chen Yuan gently pushed open the door and put the backpack on the ground.
The room was warm, so Chen Yuan took off his coat and hung it on the wall.
Sun Weiwei put down her work and said, "Are you hungry? I made some steamed egg cakes today. You and Yiyi should eat some later."
"It just so happens that I bought ten kilograms of rice and sweet potatoes. I'll make some sweet potato porridge later."
As he spoke, Chen Yuan took out money and tickets from his pocket and handed them to Sun Weiwei.
"Today I made a total of thirty-two dollars from selling meat, plus some coupons. I bought a lot of things, so I only have these twenty dollars left."
Sun Weiwei took the money and her eyes narrowed into slits when she smiled.
"Brother Yuan, you are so awesome!"
When she was in the Chen family before, Sun Weiwei had never seen so much money. Now that she is living alone, her life is getting better and better!
"There's something even more amazing. Look at this piece of cloth. It's enough for you and Yiyi to make new clothes."
This piece of navy blue cloth is of better quality than the one I bought on the black market last time, but the supply and marketing cooperative requires a ticket, so I have to wait until I receive the cloth coupons before I can buy it again.
"Yiyi and I are in no hurry. I'll process the wolf skin later. I can use this cloth and the wolf skin to sew you a vest to wear when you go hunting tomorrow!"
Seeing Sun Weiwei's excitement, Chen Yuan didn't spoil her fun.
Chen Yiyi was not interested in the new clothes. She curiously looked into the backpack that was almost as tall as her.
"Dad, what's this colorful bag?"
Chen Yuan looked in the direction of Yiyi's finger and said with a smile, "That's fruit candy. Yiyi can have one after dinner today. If you behave well in the future, you can have more."
When she heard that it was fruit candy, Chen Yiyi's saliva unconsciously flowed from the corners of her mouth.
She had seen Chen Guangtao eat that thing before. It looked shiny and delicious.
Dinner was egg cake with sweet potato porridge and a pot of potato stew.
After dinner, Chen Yiyi fell asleep soon.
Chen Yuan hugged Sun Weiwei and planned to exercise for a while to help digestion. Before he could kiss her enough, there was a loud knock on the door.
"Boom boom boom!"
"Brother Yuan, are you home? Are you asleep?"
The man who came was Hu Zi from the village, one of Chen Yuan’s few friends.
When Chen Yuan was a child, he was bullied by Chen Shan and other children in the village. Hu Zi bravely stood up for him, but because he was short and small, he was also beaten.
From then on, Chen Yuan and Hu Zi became brothers in distress.
After being reborn, he was busy with the Chen family's trivial matters and almost forgot about Hu Zi.
However, Chen Yuan was still a little impatient because his good thing was ruined. He put on his coat with a sullen face and opened the door.
"Hey, Huzi, why are you here in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?"
Hu Zi chuckled and replied, "I didn't want to bother you so late. The village chief asked us to go to the village committee. He said there's some kind of mobilization meeting going on."
"Look at Uncle Chen. He never holds a meeting early or late. He wants to hold a meeting when we are almost going to bed."
Chen Yuan knew that this should be a mobilization meeting for tomorrow's winter fishing, so he set off without delay.
"Let's go now, or I won't care if Uncle Chen scolds you later."
After saying that, Chen Yuan took a step forward and walked towards the village committee.
Hu Zi clicked his tongue behind Chen Yuan and followed him.
"Brother Yuan, have you heard about what happened to your eldest brother's family today?"
Chen Yuan shook his head and replied, "I don't know."
Hu Zi hurriedly followed Chen Yuan and told him the news he had heard today in vivid detail.
"I heard that your sister-in-law bought more than ten yuan worth of cloth in the county and took it back to her parents' home. Now the Chen family has no money for the New Year!"
Chen Yuan just said "hmm" without much response.
Seeing Chen Yuan so calm, Hu Zi thought that Chen Yuan didn't want to talk more about the Chen family, so he tactfully shut up.
But the next second, Chen Yuan slowly opened his mouth and said nonchalantly: "They plotted against me and asked me to buy it for them, but ended up shooting themselves in the foot."
Hu Zi was stunned when he heard it. He couldn't believe his ears.
"Oh my God! Brother Yuan, you are so awesome!"
……
In the courtyard of the village committee, several people were holding torches, and the flames illuminated the village committee.
Chen Zhide paced on the steps. Now everyone was there, except Hu Zi and Chen Yuan.
As he was muttering, Chen Yuan and Hu Zi arrived.
"Now that everyone is here, I'll briefly explain tomorrow's requirements."
Gou Wa yawned and replied impatiently, "Village Chief, this is the same request every year. What's there to say? Why don't you just let everyone go back to sleep?"
As soon as Gou Wa said this, some people below immediately echoed him.
Chen Zhide knew that Gou Wa was a troublemaker in the village and it was useless to continue pestering him, so he cleared his throat and got down to business.
"This winter fishing season is different from previous years. This year, each brigade must submit 100 kilograms, and the rest belongs to the brigade."
"Let's split into two groups, just like before, and try to catch as many fish as possible to share!"
When they heard that the extra fish could belong to the team, the people who came to the mobilization meeting became visibly excited.
"Oh! Then we brothers have to work hard this year!"
"The Chen family has split up, so can we still form a group?"
"Oh, there's going to be some fun!"
