Chapter 238: It's a blessing, not a curse. We have to work harder to build a house.
"Haha, you didn't expect that, did you?"
"Don't think he's always wandering around the village in a disorganized way. Sometimes he can be of some use."
Chen Kaiming laughed.
What made him most embarrassed was his second son Chen Xiaoqiao, who was a bad boy.
So whenever he had the chance, he would praise Chen Xiaoqiao and make up for it.
"Uncle Xiaoqiao asked me to go find her just now. He must be talking about this matter. I'll go to her house later." Chen Hui said.
"go Go!"
"My head hurts from all the noise so early in the morning. I'm going to take a break." Chen Kaiming waved his hand.
Chen Hui took Wu Shuisheng and a few others to Lin Jiao's house.
Chen Huihong was jumping up and down to go to the village when she was stopped by Lin Jiao.
Seeing Chen Hui and his men coming back, the two of them surrounded them and asked about the situation.
"Mom, please pour me a glass of water first. I'm so thirsty."
"You don't know, I saw my uncle drinking tea in the village, and I wanted to grab a sip several times."
Chen Hui saw that the table was empty and said to Lin Jiao.
"Okay, okay, I'll go make some tea!"
"You are all back, sit down and talk slowly." Lin Jiao said repeatedly.
"Brother Chen Hui, what happened today?"
"Are we really just going to take over their wasteland? Or do you have other ideas?"
When in the village, An Wenjing kept silent.
Now that she had entered the house, she was the first one who couldn't help but ask.
"elder sister!"
An Wenyi, who was playing with a doll in the house, heard the noise, put down the doll and rushed out.
He hugged An Wenjing and climbed up to her with his hands around her neck.
"What wasteland? What's the situation?" Chen Huihong asked anxiously.
Chen Hui stopped Wu Shuisheng who was about to speak.
After Lin Jiao made tea for everyone, they blew away the hot steam and took a few sips of the tea.
He rubbed his face, organized his thoughts, and explained the matter concisely and clearly.
"Chen Hui, you."
"Tell me honestly, is there something hidden in those wastelands? Is there gold if we dig it up?!"
Chen Huihong watched Chen Hui grow up and felt that he shouldn't be so stupid.
Chen Huihong's words made Chen Hui laugh.
He picked up the teacup and handed it to Chen Huihong, saying with a smile:
"Where is the gold? Think about it, if I really ask them for money, how much money can they give me?"
"Fifty dollars is a waste of money, and I have to beg for it every day and every year."
"Even though they were the ones who caused the incident, after a while, they will only remember how I made things difficult for them."
"Then they will dislike me more and more, and it will be difficult for me to live in the village."
What Chen Hui said is correct.
But Chen Huihong still felt very unwilling.
He put down the cup and said, "We can't just give them that cheaply. Five dollars is five dollars, fifty is fifty. It's always good to have some."
"They are all coming to work for us now. This house needs to be demolished first and then rebuilt, which is a lot of work. If we really count the hours of work, it must be several dozen dollars."
"They work for me and also praise me for my good deeds. Isn't that better?" Chen Hui comforted him.
Chen Huihong sighed heavily.
Seeing Chen Hui, she felt distressed and relieved, and sighed: "You are grown up now, and you are more thorough than your aunt. I just feel sorry for you, where will you live next?" "Of course I'll live at home."
"Let's move our things in here. This hall is so big that it can hold everything." Lin Jiao said.
Chen Hui looked around.
Although Lin Jiao's house also has two floors, the area is still a little small.
The second floor is mainly used to store firewood and sundries, and there is a small room.
There are two rooms on the first floor, and the room where Lin Jiao and An Wenyi live is slightly larger.
An Wenjing's room can only accommodate a bed about one meter wide, and there is not even enough space for a wardrobe. The kitchen and living room are not big either. If she puts the things she moved in, life will be inconvenient.
"It's too far to move here, and it will be inconvenient to move back later."
"Uncle Guogang's house is big, ask him if it's suitable for the place, if not, then put it in Chen Liping's house."
"It was his son who came up with the idea of digging the pit. So his family is most responsible for this matter."
Chen Hui thought about it and expressed his thoughts.
"Brother Chen Hui, how do you know that he was the one who came up with the idea of digging the pit?"
"Uncle didn't mention this in the village just now?" An Wenjing asked.
Chen Hui smiled helplessly and said:
"We were in a hurry to bring the wild boar back, so we just hastily filled the pit with some soil to cover up the smell."
"Uncle Guogang's land is close to that place. The next day, I gave him another pound of meat and asked him to help fill the hole."
"Because of the strong smell of blood, I was afraid it would attract something else, so I explained the situation in detail and told him to be careful."
"When I was talking to Uncle Guo Gang about this, Chen Xiaofeng just came back from the mountain. He stood by and listened for a while. Before he left, he said that my idea was good."
"Who would have thought"
Chen Hui spread his hands.
Who knew that he would pick up a muntjac later, which in turn attracted a jackal, and the jackal attracted the people from the second team.
A group of people were not good at hunting, but wanted to eat meat and also wanted to intercept the prey, so they somehow ended up using their original method.
"Hey! If it's a blessing, it won't be a disaster. If it's a disaster, it can't be avoided!" Chen Huihong sighed.
"It's a blessing, it's a blessing, it's definitely a blessing." Chen Hui smiled and patted her arm.
The old house was built by my grandparents, and then my parents upgraded it based on the original one.
Chen Hui was originally worried that he would have to demolish the house in the future and Chen Huihong would be reluctant to agree.
Now, for the sake of safety, you have to agree even if you don’t want to.
"Chen Hui, you want to build a house, do you have enough money?"
"If it's not enough, just let me know. There's still some at home. Dian Yang and Dian Hai can contribute a little more, and we should be able to get together about a thousand!" Wu Shuisheng said.
"It's enough. If it's not enough, we can earn money while building it."
"I could have been lazy and played it safe, earning two days' worth of money and sleeping in for three days, but this time I have to work hard," Chen Hui said with a smile.
"Oh my! This is the first time flowers have bloomed in the Spring Gate!"
"What a good day today is! Adong and your uncle are like different people." Chen Huihong said in surprise.
In the past, when Wu Shuisheng gave money to Chen Hui, he never objected, but he felt uncomfortable in his heart.
This is the first time that someone has taken the initiative to give money to Chen Hui.
"Don't compare me with Chen Xiangdong. Who knows what his good uncle is thinking."
"If he only comes this time, it's fine. But if he comes every day, you have to be careful."
If Chen Xiangdong could be a good uncle, Chen Huihong wouldn't have to help Chen Hui so much.
Wu Shuisheng took out all his dissatisfaction with Chen Huihong's subsidies to her parents' home on Chen Xiangdong.
Chen Huihong had nothing to refute, but today she found Wu Shuisheng unusually pleasing.
"During this time, I will stay in the village and help them build a house. I will go back when you are going out to sea, cook for you, mend your fishing nets and wash your clothes before coming back.
Brothers, I'm asking for a monthly ticket! If there's a lottery at the end of the month, let's give out a red envelope.
