Chapter 656: The competition is quite fierce
Carrying a bag of fish and oysters, he walked towards Lin Jiao's house.
Passing by Chen Kaiming's house, Chen Xiaoqiao stopped him and asked, "Chen Hui, where are you going?"
"At this point, of course I'm going to my mother-in-law's house for dinner."
"Grilled oysters, would you like some?"
Chen Hui picked up the bag in his hand and shook it.
The few that were taken later were originally intended for Chen Xiaoqiao and others.
"bake?!"
This word was a little unfamiliar to Chen Xiaoqiao, and he immediately became interested.
He turned around and shouted into the house, "Wang Shuhui, tell mom later that I won't be home for dinner tonight."
There was silence in the room for a long time.
Then he said helplessly, "Got it!"
Chen Xiaoqiao has become completely immune to Wang Shuhui's reaction.
He said with a smile: "Let's see what new tricks you can come up with. Are you going to the beach tonight?"
"Let's not go. There's nothing good to see even if we go. The tide will be high in two days." Chen Hui shook his head.
"Go ahead, I haven't been there for a long time."
"I don't have much money recently, and my luck playing mahjong isn't good, so I won't go there for the time being."
"What's the point of going fishing alone? I can't get anything."
Chen Xiaoqiao complained and picked up a piece of wild grass to pick his teeth.
"Okay, then I'll reluctantly accompany you." Chen Hui smiled.
"That's what brothers are like!"
"Call Wenjing and my wife, and we'll go together." Chen Xiaoqiao said with a smile.
"I guess Wen Jing is not available to go tonight, but you can ask her if she will give you the honor." Chen Hui said.
Chen Xiaoqiao was wondering why.
When I walked into Lin Jiao's house, I saw a pile of books in front of An Wenjing.
She was holding a book in one hand and a pen in the other, and was concentrating on reading.
"Wow! What are you preparing for? Taking the college entrance exam?"
Chen Xiaoqiao made a joke and picked up one of the books to read two lines.
He shook his head and put the book back. "This is weird. I know every word on it, but when they are put together, I don't know what they mean."
"Uncle Xiaoqiao, learning requires gradual progress."
"Why don't you read something simple first, like a newspaper or something like that."
Faced with An Wenjing's serious proposal.
Chen Xiaoqiao quickly shook his head and said, "I'm not cut out for studying. I'd better wait and eat."
"What are you thinking about? Do you want to do nothing but wait for food?"
Chen Hui said and walked out the door.
Go to the store and get the garlic that Lin Jiao had peeled.
I washed the oysters myself and asked Chen Xiaoqiao to chop all the garlic into minced garlic.
I have already practiced it at Chen Huihong's house.
When he bought garlic today, he also bought the portion he would use tomorrow.
Looking at the big bowl of garlic in front of him, Chen Xiaoqiao seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Seeing that Chen Hui wasn't paying attention, he gestured to An Wenjing and slipped away quietly.
"Brother Chen Hui, Uncle Xiaoqiao ran away!" An Wenjing said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Chen Xiaoqiao quickened his pace and disappeared in a flash.
"I knew it!"
"If it was that much at my aunt's house yesterday, he would have chopped it up if I asked him to."
"There are so many. If I don't run, I won't be Chen Xiaoqiao."
Chen Hui walked to the kitchen door, glanced outside Lin Jiao's house, and complained with a smile.
"I'll do it!"
An Wenjing stood up and put the books and pens back into the room where she had slept before.
Put on your apron and bring the big bowl of garlic and the cutting board to the living room.
After washing the oysters, Chen Hui went back to his home and got a kitchen knife, a colander and an iron rack.
After chopping the garlic, we grilled the oysters.
An Wenyi was at Shi Lan's house, playing games with Niuniu and Zaizai. He smelled the fragrance from afar, put down the half-made clay figurine and ran back.
Before he even entered the door, he shouted excitedly, "Brother-in-law! I came back smelling the fragrance."
"You are really smart. You smelled the fragrance and knew to go home for dinner."
Chen Hui said jokingly.
Put the first batch of five roasted oysters on a plate and ask An Wenjing to take it to Chen Kaiming's house.
"Brother-in-law! Can't we eat one first?"
An Wenyi swallowed several times and watched his sister walk away with a fragrant smell.
"We still have a dozen here, you'll have something to eat later."
Chen Hui pinched An Wenyi's little face, then took a few more and put them on the oven.
With yesterday's experience, Chen Hui added more garlic sauce today, and the other side dishes were only stir-fried vegetables and rice soup.
"Chen Hui, why didn't you tell me earlier that you were going to make something so delicious?"
"There are only a few at home, so I'd better eat here."
As soon as the family sat down, Chen Xiaoqiao ran over with a bowl of rice.
"I asked you to chop garlic, but you ran faster than a rabbit. You are quite active in eating."
"You can eat for free, but you have to wash the dishes at night."
Chen Hui said this and moved the stool.
Chen Xiaoqiao stopped Lin Jiao who was about to stand up, and took a stool and sat down.
"Xiaoqiao, don't listen to his nonsense."
"Wen Jing and I are at home. We won't let you, a guest, wash dishes."
As soon as Chen Xiaoqiao sat down, Lin Jiao spoke immediately.
"Hehe! I knew Sister Lin Jiao was a good person!"
"Unlike Chen Hui, who behaves like a nobody all day long."
Chen Xiaoqiao grinned.
He first picked up an oyster and put it in his bowl, then looked at An Wenjing and asked:
"The pile of stuff you were reading this afternoon was for the end-of-year civil servant recruitment exam, right?"
An Wenjing nodded.
Chen Xiaoqiao continued, "Then you have to work harder. The competition is quite fierce. My dad said that there are four people in the village who asked him for letters of recommendation."
"Four!? So many? I thought I was the only one." An Wenjing said in surprise.
"Hey, who are they?" Chen Hui asked.
"In addition to Wen Jing, there are Chen Xiaowu, Quan Yamin and Chen Qingshui."
Chen Xiaoqiao did not hide anything and told everything he knew.
Chen Xiaowu is the second child in Chen Guogang's family and the older brother of Chen Xiaoming.
Quan Yamin is the son of a clerk.
Chen Qingshui is the son of Chen Guanghua, and his sister Chen Xiaowei was almost engaged to Chen Xu.
The matter was blown up because of the rumor that Chen Xu went to Chen Hui's house to steal money.
Including An Wenjing.
Those who want to take the exam are all outstanding among the younger generation and have good relations with the village community.
"Yamin is also taking the exam? Wasn't he assigned to the flocking factory?" Lin Jiao asked.
"My dad told me that Yamin felt the salary at the flocking factory was not high, and the company only allocated one house."
"His wife is going to give birth in the spring of next year, and there's only one bed, so it won't be enough for them by then."
"He wants to take the exam and come back to the village, where there are more rooms for him to live in, and he can grow his own food and save money."
Chen Xiaoqiao said.
"As long as I can pass the exam, it's a done deal, right?"
"He is the clerk's biological son. There is no way the village will block his interview."
An Wenjing felt a little weak.
"Xiao Wu is also Brother Guo Biao's nephew!"
Chen Xiaoqiao added another sentence.
There are only two people in total.
Not to mention those who might be transferred from the town, county town and other villages, there are four people who have signed up in our own village, and Quan Yamin and Chen Xiaowu have "connections above them".
An Wenjing's face became even uglier.
