Rebirth 60: After the separation, he took his wife to eat delicious food
Chapter 40 Stealing Firewood
The Chen family members only realized what was happening when the firewood at home was almost burned out.
But at this time, heavy snow had been falling for two days, and the snow outside was almost up to an adult's knees.
Not to mention going up the mountain, it’s difficult to even go out.
Li Qinfen wanted Chen Shan to borrow some firewood from Chen Yuan. "Brother Shan, how about we go borrow some firewood from Chen Yuan?"
Chen Shan rolled his eyes at Li Qinfen and said, "Go if you want to. When did Chen Yuan give you something when you asked for it?"
"He's an ungrateful bastard. It's all in vain that our family has raised him this big!"
Li Qinfen's eyes rolled around. "Chen Yuan's family's firewood room is outside. Let's be quick and grab the firewood and run. Who would know?"
Chen Shan's eyes lit up. Why hadn't he thought of it?
"That's a good idea! I'll go find the third brother."
After saying that, Chen Shan got off the kang and went to find Chen Hai.
Chen Hai was lying on the kang and snoring soundly. Even the loud noise of Chen Shan opening the door did not wake him up.
Looking at Chen Hai who was still sleeping in, Chen Shan was so angry that he jumped onto the kang and kicked Chen Hai.
"Who? Who dares to kick me?"
Chen Hai opened his eyes in a daze and saw Chen Shan staring at him.
"What's wrong, brother?"
Chen Shan was anxious to discuss the plan with Chen Hai, so he didn't take what had just happened to heart.
"We have no firewood left at home. Come with me to Chen Yuan's place tonight to get some back."
Chen Hai was about to refuse, but when he saw Chen Shan's murderous look, he swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue.
"Row!"
……
Chen Yuan was bored at home, so he cleared the snow from the doorway leading all the way to the village.
Thinking that he would have to go to the reservoir to fetch water regularly, he cleared the way towards the reservoir.
The snow has been falling heavily, and the road will be covered even if it is cleared, but if it is not cleared, it will become increasingly difficult to clear.
Chen Yuan cleans the road in front of his house every few hours, so he doesn't feel bored during the day.
In the evening, Sun Weiwei fried pheasant eggs and stewed meat, and the aroma wafted everywhere.
When Chen Shan and Chen Hai came to steal firewood, they smelled the fragrance coming from the cave and were unable to move.
Chen Hai's stomach growled, "Brother, what did second brother's family do? Why does it smell so good?"
Chen Shan lowered his voice and warned Chen Hai with his eyes, "Keep your voice down! We'll be discovered soon!"
The two thought they were being quiet enough, and they never expected that Chen Yuan had sharp ears and heard it in the living room.
Chen Yuan didn't want to listen either, but the woodshed was just to the left of the door, separated by a wall from the living room.
Chen Yuan took the hunting rifle and went out.
He pointed the shotgun directly at Chen Shan's back.
Chen Shan felt a chill behind him, and when he turned around, he saw a black gun hole pointed at him.
"you you you……"
The firewood scattered all over the ground and hit Chen Shan's toes, scaring him so much that he collapsed on the ground.
Chen Hai was not much better than Chen Shan. His legs went weak and he almost couldn't stand.
Chen Yuan frowned and asked in a cold voice, "What are you doing with my firewood? Are you trying to steal it?"
Chen Shan quickly shook his head, "Chen Yuan, I'm your brother, take the gun away!"
Chen Yuan didn't move at all, just looked at the two of them coldly.
Chen Shan slowly stood up with the help of Chen Hai and said tremblingly, "We just wanted to borrow some firewood."
Chen Hai nodded and echoed: "Yes, we just want to borrow some firewood!"
Chen Yuancai didn't believe their nonsense, "Put all the firewood back!"
Chen Shan was afraid that Chen Yuan would go crazy and shoot, so he quickly pulled Chen Hai to send the firewood back "intact".
Chen Yuan watched them return the firewood before he said, "Get lost! If I catch you two stealing firewood again, don't blame me for going crazy and doing something!"
Chen Shan and Chen Hai were so scared that they ran home desperately.
On the way to escape, Chen Shan slipped and fell directly to the ground.
"Damn! Who swept the snow so cleanly?"
He fell hard, and without the cushion of snow, his leg was broken.
Chen Shan gasped in pain and quickly called Chen Hai to come and carry him.
"Stop looking at me, come over here and carry me back!"
Chen Hai carried the man back home with great effort. Li Qinfen was shocked when she saw Chen Shan was injured like this.
"Brother Shan, what's wrong with you?"
Chen Shan slammed his hands on the kang and shouted angrily, "It's all Chen Yuan's fault! How dare you point a gun at me!"
"If the third brother and I hadn't run so fast, you wouldn't have seen us!"
Zhang Guixiang suddenly became anxious, and with her hands on her hips, she cursed, "What a jerk! He's really rebellious!"
"I'm going to find him now!"
Chen Shan stopped Zhang Guixiang and said, "Grandma, don't go!"
"Ever since Chen Yuan split up the family, we've never gotten any good results from him!"
"He suddenly changed his personality. Maybe it was because..."
Chen Shan didn't say anything else, and everyone knew what he wanted to say.
The air in the room was quiet for a moment.
Chen Shan thought for a moment and continued, "Let's find an opportunity to do something big and ruin his life!"
Inside the room, everyone nodded and agreed to Chen Shan's proposal.
Just at this moment, Chen Hai came with a barefoot doctor, and everyone tacitly stopped talking.
As for firewood, I could only spend money to buy some from people who had firewood, and I could only wait until I could chop firewood at the front mountain.
……
Time flies and it’s New Year’s Eve.
New Year's Eve of the 1960s was on January 27th, and it had been almost a month since Chen Yuan was reborn.
As soon as she got up in the morning, Sun Weiwei took out the new clothes she had prepared in advance and asked the whole family to change into them.
Chen Yuan bought a lot of cloth this time. Sun Weiwei made a set of clothes for everyone and also knitted sweaters for Chen Yuan and Yiyi.
Fortunately, she is good at making clothes quickly and well, and most importantly, she doesn't have much work to do and has a lot of free time. Otherwise, she would easily not be able to finish making so many clothes before the New Year.
Yiyi was wearing a pastel-colored sweater and floral pants. Sun Weiwei helped her braid her hair into pigtails, and she looked prettier than any other city kid.
Today is Chinese New Year, and Sun Weiwei started preparing lunch in the morning.
"Braised spareribs, roasted roe deer, stir-fried shredded potatoes, winter melon soup, and steamed egg cake."
Chen Yuan called out the names of the dishes while Sun Weiwei prepared them on the side. It was not tiring for a man and a woman to work together.
Since their family of three couldn't eat many dishes, they only made six, which meant good luck.
In the evening, Sun Weiwei made dumplings stuffed with wild boar meat.
There was no electricity at that time, let alone watching the Spring Festival Gala on TV.
According to their local customs, people cannot go to bed before midnight on New Year's Eve and must keep the lights on to stay up all night.
Chen Yuan felt both amused and distressed when he saw Yiyi dozing off in his arms.
But the Chen family no longer had such a good life.
Li Qinfen used the family's money to buy cloth, so Zhang Guixiang's 66th birthday was not a lively one.
He hadn't been given any wild boar meat or fish, so the only meaty item for the New Year's Eve dinner was lard.
"What kind of life is this!"
