Chapter 615 Arrange a Phone for You

The weather at the end of September finally became comfortable, and the wind blowing in our faces became very cool.

An Wenjing sat on the back seat of the bicycle.

Holding the bucket in one hand, she put her other arm around Chen Hui's waist and hugged him.

The smaller cedar bass in the bucket fluttered and the other one immediately followed suit.

An Wenjing found it interesting and asked with a smile: "Brother Chen Hui, where should we send the fish these two days?"

"Send it to Sister Xiulian. She always says that I don't think of her anymore when I have good things."

"Besides, Sister Juanjuan's family probably doesn't need it today." Chen Hui said.

"Huh? How do you know that Sister Juanjuan doesn't need it at home?"

"Brother-in-law Wang saw the fish today. If he wants it, he will definitely tell me."

An Wenjing thought it made some sense and nodded slightly.

The two of them arrived at Huang Xiu Lian's house together.

I happened to meet Huang Xiu Lian who was coming out of the house carrying a small bag.

"Hey! Chen Hui, why are you here?"

Huang Xiu Lian saw the two of them and invited them to come out and open the door with a smile on her face.

Looking at the bucket in An Wenjing's hand, he asked with a smile, "Tiger banderillas! Two really big ones!"

"How can I give you a tiger banderilla? This is a cedar banderilla, which is usually found only when you go out to sea."

"The common cedar grouper weighs only half a pound, but these two weigh more than three pounds."

"Don't be fooled by its ugly appearance, the meat is very good."

Seeing that Huang Xiulian didn't quite understand, Chen Hui explained it in detail.

This thing is hard to come by, and it would be a shame if it was just treated as a larger tiger grouper.

"Oh? So this is Sugihara."

"I have heard of it, but I didn't know it looked like this."

Huang Xiulian became interested.

He reached out and grabbed the fish's tail.

The fish inside fluttered around, making her laugh.

He turned around and called Li Ping to get out the basin, put a fish in it and go back. He waved to Chen Hui and said, "Let's go to Juanjuan's house."

"Go to Sister Juanjuan's house?" Chen Hui was puzzled.

"Yeah, I asked her to go do something together."

"By the way, bring her a fish! How can we not show off such a good thing?"

Huang Xiu Lian smiled proudly.

Remembering that he hadn't paid yet, he asked Chen Hui as he walked, "By the way, how much is the fish today?"

"Sister Xiulian, just give it to me. You won't let me suffer any loss."

"Then follow the old rules. If you suffer a loss, just take a little."

As Huang Xiu Lian spoke, she took out her wallet from her small bag, counted out two hundred dollars and handed it to An Wenjing.

An Wenjing was a little surprised and glanced at Chen Hui.

"Why are you looking at him? I don't even know who manages the money in your family."

Huang Xiu Lian laughed and stuffed the money into An Wenjing's hand.

Along the way, they talked about what happened after returning from Chenjia Village that day.

Huang Zuoren had a very good impression of Chen Hui.

She felt that he was a bit lost staying in the village, and asked Huang Xiulian to ask him if he wanted to go out and make money.

If Chen Hui wants to go, he can help lead the way.

"Chen Hui, what do you think?"

"Although your current situation is not bad, you will earn much more if you go out with them," said Huang Xiu Lian.

An Wenjing panicked after hearing this and looked up at Chen Hui.

Chen Hui felt the gaze of his wife.

He held her hand in his own and said with a smile, "If I go, who are you going to go to if you want to eat something different in the future?"

"what?!"

Huang Xiu Lian didn't expect him to say that and was stunned for a moment.

After realizing what was happening, he smiled and said, "If you don't want to go, then don't go. You're using me as an excuse."

"Making money is all about having a better life." "I like my life now. I have something to do but I'm not too busy or tired."

"I don't have too much psychological pressure. I can sleep soundly every day when I lie in bed. I don't have to worry about making a wrong decision and having to start all over again."

“You can never make enough money. No matter how much you make, it will never be enough.”

Chen Hui thought of the old days.

Although material things are not as abundant now, our living conditions are much worse than before.

But it feels really good to be able to sleep soundly every day and wake up refreshed physically and mentally.

Huang Xiulian burst out laughing after hearing this.

"Sister Xiu Lian, what are you laughing at? Am I wrong?" Chen Hui asked.

"This is the first time I've seen someone say that being unambitious and content with the status quo is so...

Huang Xiulian gestured with her hands and was at a loss for words for a moment.

He didn't finish his words, but everyone understood the meaning.

The three of them couldn't help laughing.

"I was wondering why you haven't come yet. I was going to look for you."

"What did you three say? Why are you so happy?"

He Juanjuan waited for a long time, still wondering why Huang Xiulian hadn't come yet.

I heard some noise coming from the alley entrance and walked out to see what was going on.

"Oops! Sorry to have kept Boss He waiting for so long!"

"I've brought you something. There are two grouper fish weighing more than three kilograms. I'll give you one of them." Huang Xiu Lian said with a smile.

"If you have something to collect, then it's not impossible to wait a while."

"Chen Hui is here too. I just happen to have something to tell you. Everyone, come in first."

He Juanjuan took a look at the bucket and nodded with satisfaction.

He invited a few people into the house.

First take the fish into the kitchen and tell the nanny to bring it back and prepare it for dinner, and ask her to make four cups of tea first.

A plate of washed grapes was brought from the dining table.

He put them on the coffee table in the living room and said, "Everyone, have some grapes. I have to warn you! They're a little sour."

Hearing that it sounded a bit sour, Huang Xiulian retracted her hand that had been stretched forward.

He waved his hands and said, "I can't eat sour food!"

"Then I'll eat a few." An Wenjing said, picking up a few and eating them in her hand.

"Sour boy, spicy girl, Chen Hui, it looks like you are going to have two sons."

“Then we need to make more money.”

He Juanjuan joked.

Let's get back to the point, he said seriously:
"Chen Hui, Boss Huang has arranged the village road for you."

"Then I'll install a telephone for your home as a gift for moving into a new house."

"But this matter is not that easy to handle. I gave advance notice last month, and I will probably have to wait about a month."

Before Chen Hui could speak, Huang Xiulian asked in surprise, "So fast?"

Chen Hui had never laid telephone lines in the 1980s, so he didn't quite understand the specific procedures.

He looked at Huang Xiu Lian in confusion.

"You don't know, building a telephone is much more difficult than building a road."

"To build a road, you just need money, but to build a telephone, you need a lot of connections."

"It took me two or three years to get a phone for my home, and I spent several thousand dollars on it."

"Juanjuan's family was faster, and it took more than a year." Huang Xiu Lian explained to Chen Hui.

"It's really fast this time!" An Wenjing said in surprise.

"Juanjuan, how did you do it?"

"Those people at the Post and Telecommunications Bureau don't really care about our relationship." Huang Xiu Lian asked in confusion.

"We all use it for private purposes. If they don't give you face, we won't give it to them."

"Chen Hui, the county magistrate will have to call him later."

After He Juanjuan finished speaking, she made a "hush" gesture.
