Eighties Housekeeper Little Wife - Chapter 84
He has been used to the simplicity of his life all his life, and he has never been reluctant to spend extravagantly, and it is even more unimaginable to go to a restaurant as a luxury.
Chen Yuejin’s first thought was: “Why go to a restaurant, it’s so expensive, let’s eat at home.”
Chen Yuan smiled and persuaded: “Dad, look at my aunt coming all the way, we can’t just entertain people like this, and everyone is tired from the car today, and it’s very troublesome to cook now, so let’s go to the county seat. How about a bite?”
Su Wanhua originally wanted to hurriedly express that she can do whatever she wants, without worrying about her thoughts, glanced at Chen Yuan’s face, and found that she had something to say, and used this to deliberately persuade his father to agree, so he didn’t open his mouth to explain.
At the same time, he lamented that Chen Laohan is indeed a living parent, and it can be seen that he is really frugal, and his daughter also wants her to live a good life.
Chen Yuejin heard that this was indeed the case, and his son-in-law, his third aunt, and three children were indeed appropriate at home, so he quickly said, “I’m really sorry, it’s because I wasn’t thoughtful enough, so just follow the instructions. Chen Yuan said go to the city to eat.”
“Okay, then Shen Huai and I will go to the city to see the location first. You and my third aunt will chat first, and we will come back to pick you up soon.”
After Chen Yuan finished speaking, she put on her clothes and prepared to go out with Shen Huai. Shen Huai didn’t know this place by herself, so the two of them went together more efficiently, without taking detours, and let the third aunt and Chen Yuejin chat. It’s also good, peers may have common topics, and the main thing is that if the third aunt can tell Chen Yuejin about her life in the city, it may be more useful than saying a thousand sentences by herself.
She also thought about Chen Yuejin’s later life, and she couldn’t stay in a small mountain village all the time. The medical conditions here are very poor, and her income can only depend on farming and raising cattle, which is very hard.
He must be reluctant to let Chen Yuejin leave this land, because he has lived here for decades, and he is used to it in all aspects. If he suddenly leaves and changes his environment, he may not be able to accept it in his heart, and after leaving, will he be able to get used to the city’s Life, this is also very difficult to say.
The situation of my father and the third aunt is different. The third aunt is not suitable for her hometown, so she thinks it is not bad to change the soil and water. In addition, she has found a career that suits her, and now she lives more comfortably.
But my father had a bumper crop this year. For the peasant who has always been guarding the land, it is obviously impossible for him to give up his life here, so he can only look at the situation and respect his choice.
However, even if her father chooses to stay in Xiaohe Village, Chen Yuan will often go home to visit the elderly from time to time in the future. It is more convenient to travel with her own car, and she can come back often.
You can also install a telephone in the Chen family’s house, which makes it easier to communicate, but this is the bottom line. The old man is not around, and he always lacks a sense of security. If there is something troublesome, the children cannot take care of it. prone to problems.
The relationship between the original owner and her sister doesn’t seem to be very good, but his sister should also pay attention to the situation of her father, but Chen Mian doesn’t live in Chen’s house, so it’s impossible to know what happened at the first time.
Chen Yuan depends on the situation, and after testing Chen Yuejin’s attitude, decides how to solve the problem.
When Shen Huai and Chen Yuan left, they took the three children out together.
Su Wanhua and Chen Yuejin were left at home.
Su Wanhua took out the gift she bought for Chen Yuejin. She asked Chen Yuan earlier what Chen Yuejin likes. Chen Yuan said that besides farming, his hobby may also be smoking. After all, there is no entertainment at home, and the elderly live And so frugal, not keen on food and clothing, life is very monotonous, only smoking that kind of rough tobacco leaves is what I often do to relieve stress.
In addition, tobacco leaves are very cheap, and you can buy several kilograms for one dollar at the county fair.
After thinking about it, Su Wanhua bought him two good Yulan cigarettes as a gift. I heard that these cigarettes are good, but for Chen Yuejin, they are the most appropriate.
Chen Yuejin felt a little embarrassed when he saw it, and hurriedly declined: “My dear, if you say you come, come here, what are you doing with your stuff, you don’t have to be so polite when you come to our house, it’s all a family, you make it like this I’m a little uncomfortable.”
Su Wanhua smiled and said, “This is all right. You have given birth to a good daughter. Chen Yuan is such a good child. If she hadn’t helped me gain a firm foothold in Wucheng, I might not know myself now. What is it, I am now working in her clothing store, and my life has changed a lot compared to before. It is also appropriate to give some gifts for this big New Year. Two cigarettes are my heart, so don’t think too little.”
The price of these two cigarettes is actually not cheap. The main purchases are Chen Yuan and Shen Huai who have already bought a lot. If I were to buy them, it would be a bit redundant and a bit too competitive. Such a tough personality is obvious. , will give Chen Yuan and Shen Huai a bad impression, and his father is even more embarrassed to accept it.
So choosing a gift, it is also learned, it should be slightly more expensive, and it also depends on whether it is suitable for the other party, otherwise the scene will definitely be very embarrassing.
“How can you dislike it? You are such a polite person, third aunt. Is that child Chen Yuan so promising now?”
Chen Yuejin was a little surprised. He heard that Chen Yuan was doing business before, but he didn’t know what he was doing, and he came back suddenly, so he didn’t have time to ask in detail. Now, hearing Su Wanhua say this is like asking in depth. .
When Su Wanhua heard Chen Yuejin’s question, the chatterbox was opened, but Chen Yuan told her not to say too many things, for fear that Chen Yuejin would not be able to digest it all of a sudden, and in this village, it was easy to be guilty, as long as To get to the bottom of it with his father, it is enough to know that his daughter has a wealthy life in the city, and it is meaningless to talk too much.
So she said to Chen Yuejin: “My father-in-law, Chen Yuan opened a restaurant and a clothing store in Wucheng. She earned that car from her business. She is really wiser now than before. You You can enjoy the happiness in peace and quiet. In the future, when you get older and older, why don’t you live in the city with your daughter and son-in-law. Your son-in-law is very obedient to Xiaoyuan at home, and you don’t have to worry about getting along well, so it’s true. There’s nothing to worry about.”
When Chen Yuejin heard that she was a restaurant and a clothing store, she was even more surprised. Although Xiaoyuan was very smart since she was a child, she was also the most promising in the whole family, but she was used to being a little arrogant. That can do it.
His first reaction was not to be happy that Chen Yuan was able to make money and to be so capable, but to feel sorry for how much hardship she had endured and how many hurdles the child had to go through to grow into the sensible look she is today.
Chen Yuejin thought about the sudden tears, and felt very uncomfortable.
After thinking for a long time, he rubbed his eyes and choked up: “His third aunt, I said something bad, don’t mind, isn’t the condition of the Shen family very difficult?”
Otherwise, why would Chen Yuan want to make money by doing business on her own? Although she felt that she was married so far, she was not enjoying the happiness, but she did not expect to suffer so much.
Although I see that the couple is very close now, I don’t know how long this relationship has been running in.
Su Wanhua was anxious: “My father-in-law, don’t cry, the Shen family is not poor, and the conditions of the Shen family are okay, but Chen Yuan is a strong person, and she is definitely not willing to be ordinary, she is not destined to be just a housewife, This is a waste of her ability, in other words, if you choose a stable life, you can only be willing to be ordinary, but your daughter is obviously not an ordinary person.”
Chen Yuejin also felt that it made sense. After all, outside, it is not as good as at home, and it is impossible for anyone to treat Chen Yuan as wholeheartedly as himself, so people will grow up sooner or later, and there is no way out.
Therefore, after some hard training and suffering, it is inevitable. It is not a good choice to be content with the status quo.
Now that Chen Yuan has come through hardships and joys, she should be happy.
Chen Yuejin sighed after a long while, with a relieved expression on his face: “Okay, okay, my daughter is promising, I’m very happy, she has really grown up and matured.”
It is also in the true sense that you can be alone, and you can make yourself completely at ease.
Otherwise, I was always worried and worried about Chen Yuan’s life outside. Now that I know that she is living a good life, I have less worries in this regard.
Su Wanhua tried to ask, “My dear family, do you want to come back to Wucheng with us?”
Chen Yuejin immediately shook his head and refused: “I can’t do it. If I go to a big city, I’m afraid I can’t tell the difference between east, west, north and south, and if I go to a big city, it will only burden my daughter and son-in-law, and I can’t do anything.”
Apart from farming, he can’t do anything else, and as he grows older, if he doesn’t do any work, his mind will become stupid, and it will still become a burden for Chen Yuan at that time. half life.
Besides, Xiaohe Village has been living in the village for decades, and it is really reluctant to leave.
Su Wanhua told Chen Yuejin about his own example: “When I first went to Wucheng, I also felt that I could only find a small worker in a restaurant, and I had no ability, but later Xiaoyuan said that I could still do tailoring, and now I can’t do it well. Okay, people just dare to try, they will always find a suitable job, and while you can still move, you don’t want to go to see the outside world. We used to have no conditions to get out, but now your daughter’s conditions are already very good. Now, it’s easy to live in a big city.”
Su Wanhua tried to shake Chen Yuejin’s thoughts, but Chen Yuejin was used to staying in the safe area, and suddenly letting him leave felt a little dangerous, not because he didn’t want to see the outside world, but because he subconsciously didn’t dare.
So Chen Yuejin just laughed and didn’t continue to speak. In short, these two words could not easily shake him.
Su Wanhua wanted to continue to say when, Shen Huai’s car had already arrived at the door.
The only person who came back was Shen Huai, Chen Yuan and her three children were already waiting in the private room of the hotel in the county town.
Su Wanhua and Chen Yuejin were both sitting in the back of the car this time. Because they were chatting just now, they were not as unfamiliar to each other as they were just now.
Through the transparent car window, Chen Yuejin also introduced the situation in the village to Su Wanhua, and when he passed the crops, he also talked about the bumper harvest this year, so Chen Yuan had to be mentioned again.
On the way, the two old men praised Chen Yuan again and again. Shen Huai was very happy in the driver’s seat driving on the road in the village.
Chen Yuejin learned that the first time he mailed special products to him, Shen Huai mailed it to him, and he was very grateful to this son-in-law.
He felt that although his daughter had suffered a lot and complained a little about his son-in-law, he thought again that his son-in-law was really good and respected himself very much. No one is perfect.
The daughter had a fiancé before, who was also promising, but his character was not good. Compared with Shen’s son-in-law, he was really far behind.
Fortunately, I saw the true face of the other party early. The other party broke off the marriage and let go of her daughter. Otherwise, if she married the other party, it would not be such a hardship, but it would be a waste of life.
Thinking of this, Chen Yuejin became more and more pleasing to Shen Huai’s eyes. After all, Shen Huai didn’t mean to be away from home for such a long time, it was because of work needs.
And they didn’t deliberately let Chen Yuan raise the three children. The life experience of the three children was too hard. Before Chen Yuan went, they didn’t live a normal life. Shen Huai’s stepmother was not very good.
Many things are accidents, no one wants to be like that, life is destined to be a lot of helplessness, Chen Yuan can change a little bit through her own hands, she is really amazing.
Shen’s son-in-law also handed over his monthly salary to Chen Yuan, which made Chen Yuejin feel that he was very honest, reliable, and very secure. Although this was only a passing line, it was already better than most men.
Shen’s son-in-law is much better than his eldest son-in-law. It can be seen that the eyes he looks at his daughter are different. The eyes that consider her feelings wholeheartedly can’t be faked.
It is also a great blessing for a woman to meet a man who has such scruples in her whole life. Besides, happiness is not innate, but must be run in the day after tomorrow. No matter how good a man’s character is, he needs to adapt.
The eldest son-in-law sometimes does not care about the feelings of the eldest daughter. Because of having another child, he has had several fights and has no special respect for his own attitude. Son-in-law Shen will never do this, because seeing Chen Chen Before Yuan’s stomach moved, Chen Yuejin knew that Chen Yuan’s marriage was definitely much better than Chen Mian’s.
Chen Yuejin sighed that the fates of the two daughters were different. Perhaps it was their character that determined their fate. If Chen Yuan was still as arrogant and ignorant as before, she would not be able to live a happy life today. Deserved happiness.
The news of Chen Yuan’s drive back spread throughout the village, and no one knew who had reached Chen Mian’s ears.
Many people in the village knew about this, and Chen Mian had no reason not to know, so when he heard the news of Chen Yuan’s drive back, he couldn’t believe it.
So Chen Mian also set off to Chen Yuejin’s house, but when he went to find the door was closed, the door was locked and fluttered.
After inquiring, I found out that Chen Yuan took his father to drive to the provincial capital.
As for what to do, I don’t know, anyway, there are a large family, and there are children.
Chen Mian felt uncomfortable in her heart. She was the last Chen Yuan she knew to come back, but guess what, if it wasn’t for an urgent matter, it was already time for dinner, and then 80 percent would have gone out to eat.
She felt very unhappy and felt that she had been ignored, but she had no choice but to wait until tomorrow to come and find someone.
Chen Yuan chose the largest and best state-run restaurant in the county. Although it was the best, it was still far from the same standard restaurant in Wucheng.
There is a big difference in the environment and the dishes, and there are fewer guests.
When Chen Yuan and Shen Huai came, they couldn’t see a few tables of guests at all, and private rooms were made casually. The environment here is already the best in the entire county, and other stores are not as good as this, so they decided to have the whole family at night. Dinner here.
The two ordered eight dishes and one soup.
This amount is enough for four adults and three children. It is very sufficient and comfortable to eat. If you order too little, the elderly will have a common problem, that is, they are reluctant to eat.
Chen Yuan knew Chen Yuejin very well, because from childhood to adulthood, no matter what good things were, he would leave them to his daughter for the first time. He didn’t eat what his daughter left, or he chose not to eat them.
This habit has been going on for several years, and it has not changed. Chen Yuan was ignorant before, but it doesn’t mean that she is still ignorant now. Reversing Chen Yuejin’s habit starts now.
After Shen Huai picked up Chen Yuejin, Chen Yuan began to arrange for the restaurant’s service staff to serve the dishes.
As soon as Chen Yuejin entered the hotel, his state was similar to the first time he sat in a car, and he felt extremely nervous.
Su Wanhua may have felt that Chen Yuejin was a little uncomfortable, so he chatted with him naturally and diverted Chen Yuejin’s attention. He walked into the private room with his son-in-law.
Looking back to see Su Wanhua’s gentle smile, he felt a little bit of affection for her in his heart, and smiled gratefully.
Of course, he could feel that his third aunt was afraid that he was nervous. Not only did he not feel that he was a hillbilly who had never seen the world, but he also helped himself out. He was really a good person.
After a while, the waiter began to serve the food, and the first thing to be served was Sixi balls. Although I don’t know how it tasted, I saw that the plate was very clean and tidy.
Four burnt brown meatballs are placed on the plate roundly, making people feel appetizing when they look at them.
There are eight dishes in total. There are chicken, fish and meat. The fish was brought by Chen Yuan and Shen Huai from Wucheng in the trunk. It just happened to be sent to the back kitchen of the hotel for processing. It looks good and tastes good. .
Chen Yuejin saw that his daughter and son-in-law had ordered so many dishes. On the one hand, he sighed in his heart that Chen Yuan’s life had really changed for the better. On the other hand, he pinched his pockets, not knowing if the money he brought was enough. .
In short, he didn’t say anything, thinking that he would secretly pay the bill in a while.
Chen Yuejin’s paying money is not arrogant, but he feels that the child has finally come back. As a parent, he wants to spend some money for his child, and he is happy to spend money for his child.
The money the child earns belongs to the child, and filial piety for the money given to him is a different matter, and it does not conflict with his desire to spend money on the child.
And there is not much, so he can’t take out more money, but even if he doesn’t want to give up a meal, he can squeeze it out.
What’s more, he has a good harvest this year and has saved a lot of money. He hasn’t seen Chen Yuan for more than a year, and he won’t say anything he misses. He can only express it in this way. Approved.
In this way, the daughter and son-in-law also know what he is thinking.
A delicious meal was probably because Chen Yuan was back, or because he usually had a rough meal, but it was good to change to a big fish and big meat meal today, and he ate a lot more.
But when Chen Yuejin wanted to go out and pay for the bill, he found out that he was told that he had already paid the bill.
Chen Yuan shouted from behind him: “Dad, that can let you spend money. What are you polite to us? Pay for such an hour, just let us do it.”
Chen Yuejin was embarrassed and smiled: “I just think it’s not easy for you to come back, and it’s not like eating like this every day.”
“Your daughter is rich now, so this amount of money for food is really nothing. You must not do this in the future. Just enjoy it with peace of mind, and you don’t have to worry about the rest.”
Seeing this situation, Shen Huai also came over and persuaded: “Dad, you really don’t need to spend the money. As a child, I can let you pay the bill. It’s not a shame for us. You really don’t have to worry about this in the future. Take it easy, and we understand what you mean.”
Chen Yuejin’s thought of sacrificing himself for others is really distressing.
The original owner actually didn’t feel bad for his father in his heart, but he felt that such a father was also worthy of his daughter’s goodness, both morally and ethically.
Chen Yuejin smiled and nodded excitedly, agreed, and once again sighed that his daughter was really different, and he shouldn’t have to be so careful.
The next day, Chen Mian visited her door early in the morning. This time, she brought her child and her husband with her.
As soon as I entered the yard, I saw a small car parked. The car is very valuable in appearance, because such a style can only be seen on TV, and the county has never seen it, so The estimated price also knows that they can’t afford it at all.
Chen Mian didn’t get a good night’s sleep last night. At this time, her mood was even more mixed, and she didn’t know what to say.
Chen Yuan’s marriage conditions are better than her own. She knows this, but she has never been convinced. After seeing Chen Yuan drive into the car this time, she suddenly realized in her heart that the gap is already so far away.
When I realized it, I felt very jealous in my heart, and I didn’t know how to describe my mood, so I wanted to get to the bottom of it and see if it was true.
At first glance, she really has a car, but how did she buy the car? Where did the money come from, isn’t her man an ordinary soldier? How can there be so much money.
Chen Mian is concerned about how much money Chen Yuan has, and what kind of wealth she has become.
Chen Mian’s husband is Yu Xu, and she has a daughter. When Yu Xu heard that his daughter-in-law’s sister came back in a car, he was very jealous. At the same time, he wondered if the other party was so rich and returned home, could he come over? Get some autumn wind.
So when I came, I also brought my daughter. Chen Yuan is her aunt. Can you tell me not to give some red envelopes for the new year?
After the two couples came, they saw the car and saw it for a long time before entering the house.
Chen Yuan greeted Chen Mian: “Sister, you are here.”
Never thought that Chen Mian had a drooping face and said indifferently, “Why didn’t you tell me when you came back?”
“It’s not too late, but you know it.”
Chen Yuan saw that Chen Mian’s news was quite well-informed. When she came back, didn’t she know it soon, and she didn’t have to tell it at all. Moreover, her filial father and the original owner’s sister were strangers to her, and she had no responsibility. Obligation, in my memory, I have never helped myself like Father Chen.
When Chen Yuan first went to Wucheng, she used the travel expenses that Father Chen gave her.
So she felt that it was necessary for Chen Yuejin to be nice, but not necessary for others.
Chen Mian’s face turned dark and cold and asked again, “Is the car in the yard yours?”
Chen Yuan nodded: “Well, yes, what’s wrong.”
Chen Yuejin saw that there was a strong sense of **** between the two sisters, and hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade him: “Your sister finally came back, how can you know the car as soon as you enter the house, how ignorant.”
Chen Mian’s expression was extraordinarily unnatural: “I’m just asking, what are you excited about, Dad, Chen Yuan hasn’t said anything yet. It seems that he made a lot of money in the big city this year. This car should be quite expensive.”
Chen Yuan smiled and said lightly: “It’s not expensive, it’s not expensive, it’s only 70,000 to 80,000 yuan.”
The door frame rattled.
Chen Mian almost fell, and stuttered in disbelief and asked, “How much… how much?”
