selling chili peppers in chronology

=============================

The guys from the Chen family were still talking about it even after getting on the bus.

Chen Qiansheng sat on the seat without love, "I haven't worn this outfit for a long time, I almost forgot about it myself."

Chen Ming also exudes an aura of not wanting to live, "I thought it was too much when they had to carry hoes and sticks before, but I never expected that in the end, they don't need to carry hoes and sticks, but they have to wear this ragged clothes ...I have never worn such a broken one when I went to the ground before."

Chen Qian continued to complain, "We seem to be beggars."

Chen Ming pointed to the back of his hand, "This big patch on the back was just sewed on by my mother."

The two brothers saw the taste of peace in each other's eyes.

But Chen Cong and Chen Jin thought it was a good idea, and felt that the old man was very thoughtful.

Chen Ming and Chen Qian didn't want to talk.

Chen Chen, who was also wearing patched clothes, was already leaning against the window, blowing the cold wind that came in through the gap, and closed his eyes and fell asleep.

One is motion sickness, and the other is that I don't want to talk to each other.

Obviously, life was difficult before, and it was common to not have enough to eat, but why are they still complaining like this now?

Isn't it because the clothes that everyone wears now are the shabby clothes that they would wear when they went to the ground to pick up grain. If they are worn out, they can't be mended, so they just throw them away.

Since starting the chili business, the quality of life of the Chen family has risen in a straight line. They bought some good fabrics like Dingliang, but also bought a lot of ordinary fabrics. The women in the family have the ability to cut and make clothes, even Even if you are busy, you can always spare some time to make new clothes for them. Didn't the Chen family just wear them?

After a long time, they got used to unpatched clothes, and now they suddenly turn back to wear these shabby clothes that can die with a little tear, that is...

I'm really not used to it.

Not to mention themselves, even the villagers are not used to it. When they were walking outside the village just now, a villager who got up early and went to the field to look at the winter wheat saw it. He didn't dare to recognize it at first sight, and then said: "Chen Cong , your chili business is dying?"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone in the Chen family was dumbfounded, and the villager himself felt embarrassed after realizing it.

The Chen family quickly responded, "Business is going well, don't curse us."

The villager hurriedly said no, and then asked, "Then why are you dressed like this? I thought you were going to flee."

The Chen family had a lot of money in their pockets, and there were ghosts in their hearts. After hearing what the villagers said, their expressions were very exciting.Everyone looked at the sky, the clouds and the ground, but they didn't want to look at themselves. In short, the scene was suffocating and they didn't know what to say.

Looking back now, Chen Chen feels that the society is dead.

When I come back from the county, I don't know what the village will be like.

Forget it, the rumors about their family in the village have not been a day or two. From time to time, they are brought out to chat a few words, and the words are wonderful, so they should get used to it.

There are Chen family members and other people they don't know chatting in low voices by their ears, muttering about things about the Dong family and the West family, so they can't be idle.

Chen Chen's left ear went in and out of his right ear, and he didn't think much about it.

When they arrived in the county, the embarrassment of the Chen family was almost gone. Now each of them began to think about the money they carried with them. Everyone agreed not to talk about it, but they were very close to each other, even physically. All are tense.

Chen Chen coughed lightly, "If you are so tense, a fool can see that there is something wrong."

The money on Chen Jiandang's body is hidden in the interlayer of cotton clothes inside, and he will pretend to rub his hands while covering his chest, obviously to cover up, "Xiao Chen is right, everyone should be normal, don't be seen by others. "

Others also said one by one, "Yes, yes, be normal", "Don't be so tense", "Don't keep looking at me", "Don't cover your hands, you are so protective, people will know that there is something in it at a glance. thing"

……

One by one, they know quite a lot, they keep talking, but they seem to be talking in a low voice, as if they were thieves. Chen Chen has already noticed that there are people around them looking at them, and what he is thinking is probably : What are those people dressed like beggars doing sneakily? !

To be honest, beggars are not too much, after all, some poor people are really new for three years, old for three years, sewing and mending for three years, which is not much different from what they are wearing now.

Just can't...so deliberately.

At this moment, the atmosphere is particularly eye-catching.

Chen Chen said directly: "Uncle, don't rub your hands, just put them in your pocket, isn't it warmer than rubbing them in the cold wind?"

Chen Jiandang was stunned for a moment, then realized, "It's true."

"And Dad, don't hold on to your clothes all the time. In the eyes of others, what you are wearing is a rag that can't be mended again. No one will come to snatch it, so don't hold on to it. "Chen Chen said again.

Chen Jianye replied in a muffled voice, "I will try my best."

Even though that was the case, I didn't see how much better they were.

Chen Chen frowned, he felt that he had to find a way to persuade everyone to deposit their money in the bank, otherwise, if they had more money in the future, wouldn't it be safe to go anywhere?

But Chen Chen also knew that this matter cannot be rushed.

According to the address given by Master Hao, Chen Chen led the way, followed closely by the others, and they searched for them one by one.

A total of four families want to sell their houses. I don't know if what they said is true or not. Anyway, each of them said that others are also asking about it recently, so as to show that their houses are in high demand.

Chen Chen ignored the information, and then focused on the specific situation.

These four houses are all self-built houses for sale, and all of them are wooden houses.

Two of them belong to that kind of dilapidated houses. They should have been built for decades, and they are back to back. The houses are dilapidated, and the surrounding environment is not very good. Wealthy, distinctly poor neighborhood.Standing in the dilapidated fence and courtyard wall, you can hear the quarrels next door.

The Chen family's face turned green looking at the environment, why did they feel that the house in their village was not as good.

The other one is that kind of beautiful small yard. The house is considered brand new, with a layout of two bedrooms and one living room. Even the furniture is installed. The wood is not particularly expensive, but it is better than those cut by yourself on the mountain, and the workmanship is quite exquisite. .There are a few plots of land outside the house. It seems that the fenced pattern is not like a vegetable bed but a garden, and there are no gaps in the walls of the yard.

According to the woman who sold the house, this house was originally built for her daughter as a dowry, but who knows that her daughter's job has been transferred to another province, and the prospective son-in-law will also be transferred there in two months, and it is estimated that he will settle there in the future , When I come back to my mother's house, I will live with them.So the couple planned to sell the house as soon as they made up their minds. The money would then be used to buy another house at the place where their daughter works or directly to the daughter. In short, the house is useless.

What about the house?

It is good, but it is too small, there are only two rooms in total, and then there is a kitchen, a common living room for treating people and eating, and a utility room.

The water is used outside the house, and the water supply equipment of other people's homes is used. In the future, the water fee will be paid according to the amount used, and the electricity fee will also be paid on a monthly basis.

Chen Jiandang said, "It's too small to live in."

Chen Ming also said: "It's small, we can't live in any of our houses."

The woman who sold the house was not angry when they heard their discussion in such a low voice, she even explained with a smile, "We wanted to build it bigger, but at that time, there was no suitable land, and the second reason was that my daughter and son-in-law got married. They lived together when they got married, and now the family planning is still strict, so they can only have one child in the future, two adults share a room, and children share a room, and this house is enough for three people to live in."

Chen Jianjun asked bluntly, "Don't you live with the man's parents?"

"Stay here." The woman said: "Aren't we worried that our daughter will have a hard time being made difficult by her in-law's family after she gets married? If she quarrels with her in-law's family and her daughter dares not come back to worry us, the mother-in-law's family, then we can only Wronged to stay under the same roof and be so useless? So her father and I thought about getting her a house as a dowry. If I want to leave or stay in the future, it’s not a matter of my daughter’s words? Even if the whole family wants to come out Live your own life, then you won’t even have a place to go, and your waist can be straight.”

To be honest, everyone present was shocked by what the woman said on the phone.

Including Chen Chen.

He really didn't expect there to be such a forward-thinking person, who even thought of such things as dowry house and not living with parents after marriage.

Xu Shi chatted happily, and the woman asked: "Are you from the countryside? Why do you want to buy a house in the county?"

Of course, when she asked such a question, the woman didn't mean to look down on her, she was just curious.

A group of Chen family members wearing tattered patches laughed mockingly, and then Chen Qian said, "It's not easy to earn some money in the village, so I want to come to the county to find a job."

The woman suddenly realized without any doubt, "You rural people have no place to live in the county. If you want to stay in the county all the time, you have to find a place to live."

……

The Chen family didn't pay much attention to the house because it was too small, but Chen Chen himself hadn't made up his mind yet, so he planned to take a look first.

This last place is a big house with six floors and some simple furniture. If you look carefully, you can see that there are still some things missing inside, and it should have been moved.Of course, these are not important, what is important is that this house is located in a fairly lively street, and there are many people around the door setting up stalls to do business, for example, next door is a shop selling buns and steamed buns.

The owner of the house is a middle-aged man with a haggard look on his face.According to his own statement, he sold the house because his son was sick and hospitalized, and he still used imported medicine. The treatment was expensive, and the family's money had been exhausted. Now he can only sell the house to treat his son.As for where they will live in the future... It is said that there is a home that is a little smaller than this.

Probably because of the urgency, the man's asking price is slightly lower.

For example, the front is the facade and the rear is the housing pattern. The total area is more than 160 square meters, and the asking price is 500 yuan.

Just now, the location is not as lively as this place, and the house is not as big as the two-bedroom one-living room here, and everyone costs three thousand and five.Of course, there is a brand new house over there, and it also includes furniture.

It may be that the price is a bit unreasonable in comparison, so even if the Chen family feels good in their hearts, they are still a little hesitant and wary.

Is there any pit here?

In case there is a pit waiting in front of them, if they step into it, they will not get the money back.

Everyone looks at me and I look at you, but I can't be sure for a while.

Chen Chen chatted with the middle-aged man again, and then said that they would consider discussing it first, but the middle-aged man was in a hurry, and said that if they really wanted to buy it, he could drop another 200 yuan, and his son was still waiting in the hospital. He really couldn't wait that long for life-saving money.

After hearing this, Chen Chen still didn't get overwhelmed and directly agreed to buy it, but just comforted him a little, and then said that he would consider it.

The middle-aged man stopped talking for a long time, his face looked more tired and haggard, and finally he could only reply: "Then if you want to buy it, you can contact me again, the price is negotiable."

Chen Chen said yes.

The Chen family didn't go far, but went to a restaurant a few houses away to eat noodles.There are not many whistles for noodles. There are shredded pork, pork feet, minced meat, and spicy chicken. There are four dishes in total, all of which are meat, with one large portion and two small portions.Although it was expensive, the small portions on the table were enough for Chen Chen to eat, and the shredded pork was not too small, and the taste was okay.

Of course, coming here to eat fans is not only to eat fans, but also to inquire about news.

But unexpectedly, when Chen Chen mentioned that he was considering buying the house on the same street, the proprietress exclaimed directly, "That house can't be bought!"
