A group of people have been taking care of the teacher's home in shifts for five days, and there are people from the teacher's home.
Everyone happened to be about to start school, so they said goodbye to each other and went home to prepare for school.
September 2nd.
at the Haiqin High-speed Railway Station.
Wearing a goose yellow sling dress, wearing sunglasses, Wang Lixin dressed in a cool summer dress is carrying a suitcase, and her parents next to her are also large and small.
Since she started school late, all the classmates were almost gone. When it was her turn, there were no classmates to see off.
She hung her earplugs and looked around a little unwillingly, as if she was waiting for something.
Until the end, she and her parents walked into the station without seeing half of the classmates.
"Huh, I got along with you for six days. I worked together to take care of Teacher Sima, but you didn't come to send me away when I left. It was boring."
...
On the other side, Chen Chuan's house is very lively today.
This is the anniversary of his grandfather.
Grandpa Tai, who is also the father of Grandpa Chen Chuan, the old man has a strong body and prolongs his life. He lived to be 102 years old before he went west.
The Chen family is the most common surname in the Du family village, and all the people from the village have arrived this day.
Chen's descendants all wore decent dark dresses and went to the grave with solemn expression.
The cemetery is not far from the village, and a group of people is vast, and Chen Chuan is walking in it.
The scent of fireworks and incense lingered, firecrackers opened the road ahead, and the sharp sound of suona went straight into the sky.
Grandpa Tai has four sons, and each son has four or five sons. That is to say, Chen Chuan's direct parents have more than 20 people, and there are nearly 30 people of the same generation.
Among the same generation, some are older, some are married and have children, with three or four-year-old babies.
Therefore, the length of the team can be imagined.
The old lady of the Chen family has good genes. The offspring are all handsome and well-shaped. They wear suits or tunic suits.
In the grave area of Chen Jiazu, dozens of people knelt down to worship amidst the sound of firecrackers.
Chen Chuan feels the concept of ethnic blood here, which is a bond rooted in blood and soul, and has nothing to do with time and space.
This smoky worship gave Chen Chuan a new understanding of this place, and a sense of belonging and clan flowed in his heart.
was in a daze, as if he was a native of this world, and his blood and soul were full of blood.
The sky in early September is infinitely blue, birds fly by, trees are green, and white clouds are long.
The pungent smell of burning paper and incense in the air makes people feel at ease at this moment.
After the worship service, everyone on the way back, the atmosphere was less solemn and depressing.
Some people have started talking in low voices, sharing cigarettes with each other, talking about stocks, houses, cars, business and other topics.
This also reminded Chen Chuan to bring back the Maserati that he ordered before the school started.
Women don't go to the grave, cook in the Chen family courtyard, and look at them, they are all Yingyingyanyan.
Chen Chuan's peers, married, naturally there will be wives and children, and those who haven't been married yet, girlfriends have all come.
There are more than a dozen cars parked at the entrance of the compound. They have all brands, including BBA.
The people who came back from worship have returned one after another and entered the Chen family compound.
Chen Chuan's uncle took Chen's father aside, handed over a cigarette, and said, "Fourth old man, Chen Shan is getting married. I'm looking at the car recently. Would you recommend it?
"Look at the car? How much is missing?" Father Chen asked directly.
"My family used to have a little money, but I recently saw a project and wanted to invest. Therefore, there is a shortfall of 150,000 yuan when Chen Shan buys a car." The uncle said.
"My hot pot restaurant has recently been out of business... A new house was opened on the opposite street, which attracted my customers. I now have two paths. One is to reinstall the shop, to work with him, and to compete with him, and the other is I went bankrupt and closed my business and changed my career. I am now, when I am using money. I can't help you with the car purchase." Father Chen said embarrassingly.
"Don't worry, don't worry, let's talk about it later when we drink." The uncle said.
Not far away, a young man with a flat head slapped Chen Chuan on the shoulder.
"Chen Chuan, school is about to start, right, at Haiqin University?" The young man took out a cigarette and handed it over.
Soft flying.
"Yeah." Chen Chuan looked at the young man in front of him.
Chen Shan, 24 years old, graduate of Yanshan University.
Chen Shan smiled and said, "Go, take you to meet my girlfriend, a beautiful thief."
Chen Shan pulled Chen Chuan into the compound and shouted at a girl in a pink dress: "Jiaojiao."
The girl smiled back and jumped over, her long legs are eye-catching.
is this girl in a pink dress. Chen Chuan had noticed her in the crowd before. He thought to himself, on the anniversary of today, who wears pink? Dare to love is the girlfriend of his cousin Chen Shan.
"Introduce, this is Ling Jiao, my girlfriend. Jiaojiao, this is my cousin, Chen Chuan, is our family's noodles." Chen Shan said with a smoke under his nose.
Ling Jiao smiled charmingly: "Then can you learn from your brother, and smoke less, you don't smoke if you see others."
"Man, what's the matter with a drink? He doesn't smoke. He doesn't smoke in front of people. If you don't believe me, touch his pocket." Chen Shan also smiled and touched Chen Chuan's trouser pocket.
"Look at your younger brother's elegant appearance, if you can touch it, hell..." Ling Jiao was smiling, and saw Chen Chuan in his pocket, being taken out of a box of Yellow Crane Tower 1916.
"Ah, 1916! Chen Chuan, you can do it too, you have smoked more than a hundred cigarettes." Chen Shan said.
Chen Chuan smiled helplessly. It was his mother who gave it this morning, saying, "If you see someone, you will give it one, and you will not be surprised if you give it to others."
Just when Chen Chuan was embarrassed, several young people came over.
Second brother Chen He, third brother Chen Hu, fourth brother Chen Hai, sixth brother Chen Xing, seventh sister Chen Ziyue.
These young people are all the same grandfather, they are Chen Chuan's family.
"Brother, congratulations, let's get married."
"Is this my sister-in-law? What is it called?"
"Brother, my sister-in-law is so beautiful, how can I lie?"
A few young people chatted.
As the boss, Chen Shan dismantled the Yellow Crane Tower 1916 and began to tell the history of his love with his girlfriend.
Chen Chuan walked aside, took a cucumber from the vegetable basket next to the well, took a bite, it was crisp and sweet.
Looking at the nearly 100 men and women in the compound, I sighed that this Chen family was really prosperous, and this rural compound was also big enough, presumably Grandpa Chen was also a wealthy lord.
Zhang Xiangyun came over, stuffed Chen Chuan with a thick pancake, and said, "Eat while it's hot... By the way, Chen Chuan, you think everyone has a girlfriend, and you are not young anymore. I will give you that for Xiao Pei's family. Hurry up, ask for contact information, and take the initiative. If Xiao Pei is interested in you, it's easy to talk about the bride price."
Before Chen Chuan could speak, Zhang Xiangyun said again: "Look at your unattended sister-in-law, Ling Jiao, isn't she? But, Xiao Pei is more beautiful than her. If you can bring Xiao Pei, you are the Chen family. The most promising cub."
"Is there such an exaggeration?" Chen Chuan smiled.
"Why not? If you can bring Xiao Pei, you will be the star of the Chen family. If you can bring Nazar, then you will be the star of the whole village. At that time, not only you, but the prestige of our family will rise like a rocket. "Zhang Xiangyun said, and went to cook again.
During this time, folks from the same village have come to send incense papers, and you can see the reputation of the Chen family in the eight villages.
Waiting for the start of the luncheon banquet.
Chen Chuan stood to bask in the open space outside the courtyard.
At this time, Chen Chuan saw Ling Jiao carrying a garbage bag and walking outside the courtyard, looking like he was throwing garbage.
Ling Jiao saw Chen Chuan and said, "It's you, what are you doing out, wouldn't it be out smoking? I can tell you that you should smoke less."
"Don't smoke, come out to get air, there are too many people in the courtyard." Chen Chuan said.
"Your village is well planned, all asphalt roads are paved. Unlike our village, it is still a cement road." Ling Jiao chatted casually.
As she said, she stepped on her long and vigorous legs, walked to the trash can, threw the trash into the trash can, and said: "Your brother said, let you be the best man, then you will have to come."
"I will go if I have time."
"You must be free." Ling Jiao said, walking back to the courtyard.
After a while, it was noon.
At the banquet.
Chen Shan opened a bottle of Great Wall dry red and poured it on the table for several younger siblings, as well as his younger brother's girlfriends: "Brothers, you have never drunk since you were young. Now you are in college, you can learn to drink a little. When you enter society, you won't be able to drink. Today, my brothers will accompany you to drink."
Chen Chuan has no pressure to drink because of the permanent effect of [Sober Pill], but he has never drunk red wine, and now he can't taste good or bad.
After a few sips, I had the opportunity to buy a few bottles of good wine, such as the Lafite in 1982. After all, there is now [double rebate on consumption] permanent, and he is qualified to taste these high-end wines that he could not even think of before.
After a few drinks, the faces of the young people on this table are all red.
Chen Chuan accidentally discovered that Ling Jiao seemed to have a good amount of alcohol, and she had the clearest eyes on the whole table.
"By the way, Chen Chuan, I'm going to the auto show in two days to buy a car. Are you with me?" Chen Shan took Chen Chuan's shoulders and said, "Brother, I didn't find that you drink well before. When you got married , You have to help me block the wine, and your sister-in-law and I will invite you afterwards."
This wine has been drunk until evening.
Chen Chuan felt that the atmosphere was not right when he returned home.
嘭!
The door of the main hall was pushed open roughly, and Zhang Xiangyun walked out angrily, carrying a bag in his hand.
"My son's house has not been sold. You can still lend money to others to start their own business. You can really do it! Hot pot restaurant has no business, and the money is not kept for decoration, so you can lend it to others to buy a car? Alright." Zhang Xiangyun said as she strode out of the yard, opened her red jeep car, and went up and started the car.
Father Chen chased out and patted the car door: "Hey, where are you going? Listen to me to explain to you that Chen Shan is about to get married, but the wife's family still has a request for at least 200,000 cars..."
Boom!
Zhang Xiangyun started the car and drove away.
Chen Chuan looked dumbfounded, did not know what was going on, and did not dare to ask.
Father Chen watched the car go away, turned around to look at Chen Chuan, continued to explain: "You are there today, are you at the table with Chen Shan? Did Chen Shan tell you, The request of the woman's family?"
"Nothing to say." Chen Chuan said.
"The wife's house is not satisfied with this marriage. The two younger selves have decided to go and get the certificate. The woman asked Chen Shan's family to leave the house and the car to pay three golds. Your uncle bought the house for Chen Shan, and it is in the city. In the East District, although it is a small second, it is also a new house, which is enough for two people. I just bought a house and didn't have the money to buy a car, so I borrowed 100,000 for them. That's it... Your mother is in a hurry." Father Chen said.
"Then what happened to the hot pot restaurant my mother said?" Chen Chuan asked.
"Recently, a new hot pot restaurant has been opened on the opposite street. The decoration is very good, and the food is not expensive. Our business here has gone over there. We originally prepared 100,000, but I also reinstalled it to enhance our competitiveness... …" Father Chen hesitated to speak, "Your mother said that she wanted to reinstall. I mean, reinstalling is laborious and costly, and the effect may not be good."
Chen Chuan understands, co-authoring is to lend 100,000 yuan to the uncle's family.
The two father and son stood in the yard with big eyes and small eyes.
Father Chen is 43 years old this year, but he has gray hair on his temples, and he looks rather old, so I guess he doesn't worry about it.
"What should I do now?" Chen Chuan asked.
"Your mother asked me to return the 100,000 yuan. She wants to renovate the hot pot restaurant. She said she would not come back if she wanted to come back. She went back to your grandma's house." Father Chen rubbed his face with both hands, squatted down and scratched his head. Xiang Yun is too willful when transferring it to others."
"How much cash do you have?" Chen Chuan asked.
Father Chen looked up at Chen Chuan, and thought for a while and said: "Less than 50,000, and another 400,000 are reserved on a regular basis and cannot be taken out. That is what we have saved for you to buy a house these years."
