Chapter 240: I made a lot of money by visiting other people, and arranged for half a pig
Chen Kaiming also returned home.
When Chen Hui arrived at his house, they happened to be discussing what happened in the morning.
After listening to Chen Kaiming's account of what had happened, Yuan Chuanfang praised Chen Hui for having become a completely different person after getting married. Not only had he become more motivated and hardworking, but he had also become more and more efficient in doing things.
"It will take at least one or two months for Chen Hui to build a house. You have to help him keep an eye on it. Don't say good things today and then everyone will be lazy and not work or make excuses not to go."
Yuan Chuanfang was packing up the corn she had harvested from the fields. As she spoke, she looked up and saw Chen Hui.
He said with a smile: "See, you can't talk about people behind their backs. Fortunately, I didn't say anything bad about you!"
"Aunt is the best person in the world. If anyone can be said badly by you, it must be his fault."
Chen Hui walked in, talking and laughing.
He found a bench, sat down and worked with Yuan Chuanfang on the corn.
"Are you here to look for Xiaoqiao?"
Chen Kaiming shouted at Chen Xiaoqiao to come down.
When seeing people coming, I don't forget to compare them.
"Look at how lively Chen Hui is now. He knows how to help with the corn right away. You were the same person before. Why don't you learn from him?"
"Wow! The new hope of Chenjia Village, you are finally back! Where is my bicycle?"
Chen Xiaoqiao joked and found a bench and lay sideways.
Sitting next to Chen Hui, he complained, "Why are you acting so good, kid?"
"Your bicycle is still in Dasha Village. The road is hard to travel on after the rain stopped this morning. I'll ride it back after lunch."
"Uncle Xiaoqiao, it was you who investigated what my uncle said about our family."
"What exactly happened?"
Chen Hui ignored Chen Xiaoqiao's teasing and bumped him with his elbow.
"This is an extremely exciting story. Guess who I heard it from first?" Chen Xiaoqiao kept the secret.
"."
Well, I don’t really want to guess.
"Forget it. I don't think you can guess it. Chen Guangming, you didn't expect it, did you?"
"what?!"
Chen Hui looked at Chen Xiaoqiao in surprise. This was really something he couldn't guess.
"Hehe!" Chen Xiaoqiao smiled proudly.
"Tell us what happened exactly!" Chen Hui's curiosity was completely aroused, and he urged while peeling the corn husk.
Chen Xiaoqiao couldn't help laughing for a while before he started talking.
This matter is actually very simple.
Chen Liping doesn't smoke or drink, and his only hobby is to brag on the bridge after a meal."
Some time ago, Chen Hui took Chen Guobiao and others to hunt jackals, and the villagers discussed it on the bridge with envy for several days.
Not long after, Chen Liping also started bragging.
Even though the jackal is right behind his house, Chen Hui is not the only one who can fight it.
Maybe he was afraid that someone else would snatch it away.
Chen Liping emphasized several times that a trap had been dug in the mountain behind Chen Xiaohui and the people from Team 2, and the jackals caught in the trap belonged to Team 2, and no one was allowed to snatch them.
If it belonged to Chen Xiaohui alone, it might have been robbed.
But it’s different for Team Two. No one would offend seventy or eighty households for the sake of a prey.
As he was talking excitedly, Chen Xiaoqiao felt a long "gulp" from his stomach.
Chen Xiaoqiao reached out and took the corn from Yuan Chuanfang's hand and urged:
"Mom, go cook. I'm hungry! Let Chen Hui and I take care of this!"
"Yes, yes, Chen Hui will have lunch at home in the afternoon, right?" Yuan Chuanfang stood up and said.
"My mother-in-law has already cooked it! Come back next time."
Chen Hui responded and then asked Chen Xiaoqiao, "Then what? What does this have to do with Chen Guangming?"
"Well, this is the time to show the benefits of having good relationships in the village!" "You really need to learn from me!"
After being used as a negative example for a long time, Chen Xiaoqiao finally got a chance.
After boasting a bit, he continued:
"You know Chen Guangming. He's a young man without a wife, and he gossips with a group of old men at the bridge every day."
"He was the one who inquired about this. One day, I was bored at the door and he happened to pass by and started a conversation with me."
Chen Hui nodded thoughtfully.
After coming to his senses, he looked at Chen Xiaoqiao and said:
"I thought you had learned some useful skills from listening to so many stories about Justice Bao with your uncle, or that you had a talent for finding detailed evidence and making judgments."
After saying that, he did not forget to smile contemptuously and increase some magic damage.
"Hey! I'm telling you, don't have that expression! I really do have one!"
"That day my dad went with a few old men to patrol the village. I was worried so I followed them. It was a coincidence that I passed by your house and saw the mountain rushing down."
"I reacted immediately and took a few old men to Chen Liping's home."
Chen Xiaoqiao raised his chin complacently.
"Yeah! Your uncle Xiaoqiao was really good that day. He asked all the questions in just a few words."
Chen Kaiming was listening attentively at the table and also started to agree.
"Oh?! Uncle Xiaoqiao is so mighty! Then how did you scare Chen Liping?" Chen Hui asked curiously.
"How can you talk like that? We've all been to school, and how can we call that intimidation when we're educated?"
"I just presented the facts and reasoned with him, and he explained the matter clearly."
"Tell us how many people from the second team went together, and if we all share the burden, the responsibility will be less."
"Otherwise, he'll have to take care of it himself."
Chen Xiaoqiao chuckled and saw that while Chen Hui was listening to a few words, he had processed several more corns.
The movements of his hands also became much faster.
"Uncle Xiaoqiao, thank you!"
"When the new house is built, I will definitely treat you to a nice drink!"
Chen Xiaoqiao stopped and looked at Chen Hui in surprise.
Seeing that Chen Hui looked serious and not as joking as usual, he smiled awkwardly.
"What a big deal! Don't say that this is something my dad should be in charge of. You're my brother, how can I not stand by you?"
While Chen Hui was processing the corn, he also chatted with Chen Xiaoqiao about Qiao Mei's situation.
I heard that the two are in love and have decided to get engaged next month, and set a date for the wedding at the end of the year.
Chen Hui was also very happy.
With a smile, Yuan Chuanfang, who was standing behind the stove, joked, "Aunt! I have contributed the most to this matter, right? You must give me the biggest pig's trotter when the time comes!"
"Here you go, here you go! I'll chop off two for you when the time comes!"
"If you can guide Xiaoqiao and make him more motivated, I will buy you half a pig!" Yuan Chuanfang said with a happy smile.
"Uncle Xiaoqiao, you should be more motivated! Just pretend!"
"We'll take half of the pig to town to sell, and we'll split the money equally."
Chen Hui's words caused a burst of laughter.
Yuan Chuanfang jumped up and down and said that Chen Hui was playing tricks! He needed to be beaten up and taught a lesson!
The meal at Lin Jiao's house has been cooked.
Chen Huihong went to Jiang Houfa's house. When she heard that Chen Hui had come to Chen Kaiming's place, she came over and asked him to come back for dinner.
Yuan Chuanfang pulled Chen Huihong aside and explained everything.
Tell her that if she needs help or if the people in Team 2 are not cooperating, she should just come to Chen Kaiming!
The two chatted eagerly for a while.
