My 1995 Small Farm Chapter 130

   Chapter 130 New Home

   Today is the sixth day of the first lunar month. There are no fairs in the county town, but there are many people in the market.

  Most of them are villagers under each township to sell things.

   There are quite a lot of eggs and duck eggs on these small stalls, and they are reluctant to eat them. After saving enough, they bring them to the county to sell them. After they are sold, they go to replace them with grain rice noodles or something.

There are also many   mountain goods.

   is some mushrooms, yams, pheasants, hares and the like.

   In addition, there are many sellers selling seasonings, pickles and pickled vegetables.

  Chen Ling took a look in the car, there was nothing he liked, so he found a place to park.

Wang Zhenzhen came to the county town for the first time, and it was the first time to take a car. The novelty never went away. After Chen Ling parked the car, he couldn't wait to jump off with two dogs, yelling like a crazy girl. running back and forth.

   "Wealth has come too."

  Chen Ling had just moved the two baskets of eggs and duck eggs down when someone called him. He turned around and saw that it was Cui Lai who was driving a donkey cart not far away with a smile on his face.

   "It's the lame brother, who came to buy again?"

  Chen Ling put the basket away, smiled and walked forward to speak.

   This Cui Lazi is a middle-aged man in his forties, about 1.6 meters in height, with a melon face, swollen eyes, and a simple and honest face.

   It's just a congenital disability of his left leg. He used crutches since he was a child, which made his body and face a little deformed.

   He is not a native of Chenwangzhuang, but came here with his sister.

  Sister is married to the son of Wang Laishun's eldest brother, and belongs to the same generation as Wang Lixian and Chen Ling.

  This person has been called a lame since he was a child, and few people know his name, like Liu Nier, they are all lame old uncles, lame uncles.

  Cui Laizi doesn't take himself seriously, and there is no problem of disrespecting people.

   "Well, let's buy some goods, this is Susu's girl, right? She's a smart little girl, come and eat milk candy."

   Cui Lame smiled and grabbed a handful of candy from behind and stuffed it into Wang Zhenzhen's hand.

  The village has always been unable to hide things. If you fart at the head of the village, you can smell the stench at the end of the village. Cui Lame naturally knew that the elder brother and sister-in-law of Chen Ling's family were here.

   "Brother-in-law..."

  Wang Zhenzhen grabbed the candy and looked up at Chen Ling, his big eyes were a little overwhelmed.

   "It's okay, accept it, this is also a brother."

  Chen Ling touched the little girl's head and smiled.

   Then chatted with Cui Laizi for a few words, and after he left, he returned to the car and continued selling eggs.

   "Is the toffee delicious?"

   "It's delicious, it's old and sweet, and it's still soft, brother-in-law, you can eat it too."

   "Oh, I'm really sensible. Let's go buy some if you think it's delicious."

   The southern half of the farmers market sells fruits and vegetables, and the northern half is a mixed area for grain, oil, small food, clothes, and toys.

   People like Cui Laizi go there to buy goods.

   "Enough brother-in-law, toffee is expensive."

   "Haha, what's this expensive, when we sell the eggs and duck eggs, we can exchange for a tractor toffee."

   A few minutes after Chen Ling said this, a hawker came over.

   When he saw Chen Ling, he complained, saying that after waiting for him for more than half a month, no one was there, and they were almost unable to receive the goods.

   That is, I saw two dogs today, so I hurried over to have a look. It really made them wait.

   "Good guy, brother, you've all changed into a car."

   "No, my friend."

   "That's great too. When will I bring in a few more cars, it won't be a problem to change a car at the end of the year."

   "I don't sell vegetables anymore, I'm busy and tired."

   "No, it's tiring to make money, why don't you do it?"

  Chen Ling just shook his head and didn't say much.

   After the new house is built, eggs, duck eggs, quail and rabbits can be sold for a lot of money every month.

   As for selling vegetables, forget it.

   As long as you have enough food in your own vegetable garden, what do you do when you wake up early in the morning and get up in the dark.

   Maybe it's cold, and when I have nothing to do at home, I will go out to the small courtyard in the south of the city a few times, and I don't panic to make money at other times. It's not worth it to be so tired.

   "Brother, you really..."

   "I've never seen you like this."

  The hawkers have no culture, they didn't know what to say for a while, they just kept shaking their heads and sighing, taking Chen Ling to the scales.

   After selling the eggs and duck eggs, Chen Ling took his sister-in-law to the market, leaving the two dogs to watch the car.

   In the next half a day, Chen Ling took the little girl to go around the market.

   I bought a lot of everything to eat, wear, and play, which made Wang Zhen really happy.

   When I got back to the car, I still held her things and didn't let go.

   "How is it? Are you still satisfied with the stationery box?"

   "Satisfied, the three-layer stationery box is very beautiful, brother-in-law, you are so kind, hehehe."

  Little girl's previous stationery box was when Wang Susu went to school. It has been used for nearly ten years, and she can finally replace it with a new one.

   "Go, I'll take you around the city."

Today, in addition to buying things for my sister-in-law, I also need to refuel the car and change new tires for my uncle. Family.

Before coming back, he deliberately went around the middle school and asked Wang Zhenzhen to wait in the car. He went back to the courtyard to take a look. Except for the scraps of paper stuffed by the owner of the oil mill, there were very few people who came to buy vegetables. The oil mill owners are begging for peanuts, and some have come more than two or three times, but he can't care about this now, and it takes a lot of effort to tinker with this stuff.

   Just wait.

   Waiting for the peanuts and soybeans in our own fields to be harvested before sending them, just in time for the construction of the fields.

   If you are busy, get busy together.

   "Brother, brother, look, the stationery box that my brother-in-law bought for me is three-tiered, doesn't it look good?"

   As soon as he got home, Chen Ling just stopped the car, Wang Zhenzhen jumped down with something in his arms, and went to Wang Qingwen to show it off.

   "Don't you have one at home? Why do you still buy it? Let your brother-in-law spend money!"

  Wang Qingwen couldn't help frowning when he saw his sister holding a lot of things.

   "The one at home is old..."

   When the little girl saw the big brother's appearance, the smile on her face suddenly froze.

   I wanted to suffer, but I was overjoyed.

   "It's old and it's not broken, it can still be used, why buy a new one?"

  Wang Qingwen was helping Hemu, and he was no longer in the mood for Hemu. He threw down his shovel, clapped his hands, and asked, "What are you holding in your arms?"

   "Brother-in-law bought me new clothes and new sandals."

  Wang Zhenzhen is not afraid of his parents at home, he is afraid of this eldest brother. At this time, he also looked at the eldest brother's face and whispered Ai Ai in a low voice.

  Wang Qingwen's brows furrowed even more. It happened that Chen Ling also came over with his hands full of things at this time. After a closer look, there was something to eat and something to play with.

   "What is this? No, I said you bought two big packs of toffee and instant noodles?"

   "Don't you really like to eat. There are often little dolls at home to play with, so I bought more."

  Chen Ling smiled, the little dolls craved instant noodles in addition to sugar.

   At this time, instant noodles did not have so many fancy seasoning packets, but in terms of taste, they were far stronger than later generations.

  Wang Qingwen couldn't say anything about Chen Linghe in front of so many people, so he said "I will waste money", turned around and went to **** the mud in a rage.

   At this time, popsicles are only five cents a piece, ice cream is a cent, instant noodles are expensive, there are thirty cents and fifty cents, in fact, two packs don't cost much.

   But the elder brother still thinks of the older generation. He thinks that spending a dollar or two will satisfy his cravings and pass his mouth addiction, which is amazing.

   How could Chen Ling do this? It's not serious food, buy a bunch and come back.

   He also bought a stationery box. He used Shuangbaosu paper boxes for pencils when he went to school.

   "Brother Qingwen, don't be angry, it's not easy to see you both when it comes to riches and honors. When my sister-in-law comes, isn't he happy for his expression as a brother-in-law? He's happy too."

   "That's right, but to have an uncle like Qingwen is a blessing to be rich and noble. Someone should take care of him, and he can only be successful if he is in charge."

  Someone persuaded him like this, but Wang Qingwen was not so angry. In fact, he just hated that iron could not become steel.

  A bright young man is a piece of material for success, and he has to learn it well.

   This big-handed flower.

   If you don't save some money, what will you do if you have a baby in the future?

  If you accidentally give birth, it will be hard to pay people...

   It makes me sad to think about it.

   No matter what the uncle thought, after three or four days of work, the Chen Ling family's house was finally built.

After the house in the front yard was demolished, the new yard is much larger than before. The shady ground supported by the jujube, peach and pear trees in the house could cover most of the yard, but now it can only cover the southeast corner. one slice.

The walls are neatly built, the lotus pond is rebuilt high, surrounded by bluestone strips, and there are beautiful courtyard dams and steps. Under Chen Ling's special instructions, kennels, chicken coops, and duck pens were also built. I also found a place with the rabbit nest and repaired it again.

The    cowshed was arranged in the southeast corner, where the rabbits used to dig holes.

In addition to these, Chen Ling also planted some bamboo and built a small bamboo garden in the center of the yard. The bamboo was improved by his cave, and it grew lush and lush, adding a lot of interest to the newly built courtyard. Empty.

  Not far to the east of the bamboo garden, there is a large grinding wheel.

  Although there are no grape trellis and flower beds in the yard, but the roots are still not digging out of the ground. In the spring of next year, some water will make it flourish again.

   On the tenth day of the eighth lunar month, Chen Ling and Wang Susu moved to a new house. The sun is harsh in this season, and the morning and evening winds on the mountain are also strong. The house was built and the job was done quickly.

The house had a new look. Heiwa and Xiaojin were also excited and ran around the yard, sniffing here and there for a while, and then they returned to their nest with their own rice bowls in their mouths, rolling over and over in it, most of the time. Heaven can't be separated.

  The house was built, and it was changed to a new house. On the tenth day of the first day, Chen Ling had dinner at home again. This time, there were not many people who came to him for drinks. They all came to Wang Qingwen.

   After drinking this wine, Wang Qingwen woke up at noon the next day.

   But what surprised him was that he didn't have the splitting headache after drinking too much alcohol, and there was nothing uncomfortable in his stomach.

   In fact, he was quite happy yesterday. In the past few days, his attitude towards his brother-in-law has changed more and more. Damn, the city leaders all have friendship with him and call him a brother. He will let him drive the car.

   Even in the township and county, he has a number, and the leaders all know his name.

   The family planning person in the village also has a good relationship with him. This guy was worried about him in vain.

After   , there is nothing else but happiness or happiness.

   I thought that my sister had finally made it out.

The days are getting better and better, and he has seen some things in the past few days. This brother-in-law really has nothing to say to his sister now. It's not good to say it. He can't do this to his wife, so there's nothing to worry about Woolen cloth?

   It's just that this kid spends a lot of money, and he has to talk to him about this.

   So last night, whoever persuaded him to drink would not refuse, and he got very drunk, which made the villagers compliment Chen Ling, his uncle, and thought he was a real person.

   There are still people drinking happily, and they will bow to Wang Qingwen on the spot.

   Fortunately, Wang Laishun finally persuaded him to stop.

   After drinking this wine, I saw that I have been staying at my brother-in-law's house for almost a week. The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, and my brother-in-law is going to rush home on August 12.

   So after waking up on August 11th, Wang Qingwen couldn't hold it any longer after a few days, and called Chen Ling out in front of Wang Susu.

   "Do you have any plans for the future?"

   "Just grow vegetables, grow fruit trees, grow something, and build a farm around the fields in two months. The rest are not that far away."

   "This is actually fine, but I see that you know a lot of people, why don't you think about eating public meals?"

   "My temperament is inappropriate and I won't cater to people."

   Hearing this, the uncle sighed, and after that, it was nothing more than some words to persuade him to spend a certain amount of money, to plan for the future, etc., lest he would be sitting on the mountain and not be able to save the family business.

  Chen Ling also nodded yes.

   Being preached is an annoying thing, but as the villagers said, Chen Ling has no father or mother now, and it is not a bad thing to have such an uncle who constantly disciplines her.

   It's good to change it to another family, and it's good to not want to take advantage of your sister. Who cares about your mess?

  Chen Ling knew it himself, so he listened patiently.

  Wang Qingwen saw that this brother-in-law had a good attitude. He seemed to listen to persuasion, and he felt a lot more at ease.

   He had hope for Chen Ling. At the beginning of the year, he had been beaten so hard that there would have been such a big change. In the past six months, he had indeed been tossed around a lot. To say that he was dissatisfied would be a lie.

  This kid is not stupid, and he will deal with people outside.

   In his opinion, as long as he is down-to-earth and does not engage in devious ways, his brother-in-law will definitely succeed in the future.

   "Brother, you have to go back to class after August 15th."

Wang Qingwen is a teacher at Fenglei Town Middle School. He teaches mathematics and helps Chen Ling to work. These days, people always say that this eldest brother doesn't look like a peasant in his temperament. Because of this, no matter how you dress or how you speak, you are quite different from the people in the village.

   "Well, it's time to reopen the class."

  Wang Qingwen nodded. This time, the school on their side was affected a lot, and it was re-opened. During this time, the school was closed.

   "Really stay here for a while. You will go into the mountains with your team in a few days, so that Susu will have company at home."

   "Okay, our village primary school is going to be rebuilt. I'll ask someone tomorrow. Let's take Zhenzhen to the city for class first. It's third grade, and it's very troublesome to keep up with the progress."

  Chenwangzhuang Elementary School was too close to the weir and pond in the village, and it was also collapsed. The little children in the village did not go to school for a while, and they ran wild all day.

   But they are so young that Wang Zhenzhen can't compare with them. This year they are in the third grade, so they can't keep delaying.

  Wang Qingwen smiled after hearing this, this brother-in-law is really different.

   Then he glanced at the courtyard and found that his sister seemed to be eavesdropping, so he quietly handed a cigarette to Chen Ling: "Lingzi, go outside the village, I have something else I want to ask you."

   Chen Ling's heart skipped a beat, listening to Uncle's tone, wouldn't it be a big deal? Still, he nodded and followed.

   After half an hour.

  The two circled around the village and came back home, facing Wang Susu's worried eyes.

   While Wang Qingwen was not paying attention, Chen Lingchong blinked at his daughter-in-law, indicating that it was all right and reassuring her.

   In fact, the eldest brother didn't talk to him about anything else, he just asked about the birth of the baby, because he was afraid that Wang Susu would be embarrassed or that outsiders would hear gossip, so he didn't ask at the door.

   Chen Ling was also very helpless about this matter. He obviously worked hard, but Wang Susu just couldn't get pregnant. The eldest brother was also worried that he had broken his bones last time, and was so worried that Chen Ling couldn't help laughing and laughing, but he couldn't explain it.

   How strong his body is now, he knows best himself, Wang Susu can't get pregnant, maybe the timing is not right, there is a cave in the sky, in fact, this is not a big problem.

  Continue to work hard and not slack off.

   "Really, I'm going back tomorrow, you have to be obedient at your sister's house, do you know?"

   When he got to the house, Wang Qingwen tugged at the little girl's braid and warned.

   "Oops, I got it!"

  Wang Zhenzhen raised his head in annoyance and shouted dissatisfiedly: "Brother, how did you learn to be like brother-in-law, you can't pull my braid, what should I do if I'm bald?"

  Chen Ling patted his head and said with a smile, "What are you afraid of, I'll lend you my bald brother-in-law's hair."

   The little girl's face suddenly became more angry: "Brother-in-law, you will fool me."

   She is not a three-year-old baby, how can she change her hair.

  Chen Ling smiled and didn't bother. My sister-in-law is already ten years old, so if she's not funny now, it won't be fun if she's older.

  Wang Susu watched them play with a smile, poured tea for Chen Ling and his eldest brother, and then hung the oil paintings sent by Zhao Dahai on the wall with hammers and nails.

After hanging up, I sat on the threshold with the dustbin in my hand, listening to Chen Ling talking to my elder brother, watching my sister chasing the little rabbits in the courtyard, and started to do some needlework. , the seasonal clothes should be prepared early.
