Chapter 020 Prepare to treat and return favors

"You can go out with me, but it's still raining, you have to hold an umbrella and put a velvet cloth under your butt. I just wear a hat and a straw raincoat."

Chen Tianhua nagged.

He thought that the younger sister had just started to develop and the girl had a special physiology. She was exposed to rain or was damp and was prone to gynecological diseases.

These little sisters Youjuan must not understand very much, but he, the eldest brother who was a second life, naturally had to protect her well.

But Youjuan can go with her. There was no news about Lin Gen's family in his head. I guess his ex had never been there, so my younger sister had to lead the way.

"Well..." Youjuan nodded obediently.

"Hey, do you know where Brother Genzi lives?" Chen Tianhua pushed the boat away and asked first.

"Well, I probably remember that I've been with my father once." Youjuan replied loudly.

At the front of the small boat, the board was a little wet by the rain. She wiped it with a dry rag, then put a velvet cloth on it before sitting on it, and then opened the oil paper umbrella, which seemed orderly.

The small boat walked quickly from the waterway and arrived at the market in the town after a while. Chen Tianhua asked Youjuan to look at the boat. He bought a piece of pork belly when he got ashore, and then carried the yen Shaoxing Qinjiu daughter Hong off the boat.

"Brother... Brother Genzi's boat cannot be passed. Let's go home first, move the meat and wine back first, and walk over on the boat."

Youjuan found that her brother was going to row directly to the east end of the village, so she quickly stopped him.

"All right."

Chen Tianhua turned the bow of the boat and rowed home, carried the old wine and meat on the boat back, tied the boat to the river bank, took the oars home and placed it, and then followed Youjuan to the east end of the village.

The Lin Gen family and Chen Tianhua family belong to the east and west ends of Xibutou Village, less than two kilometers apart.

The brother and sister walked for more than twenty minutes and arrived at the door of Lin Gen's house.

After Lin Gen got married, according to the rules of most families in the countryside, he had to separate the family and become independent.

When he split the family, he got two ancestral houses and one acre of more than acre of land. This house was just right, but one acre of more than acre of land and crops were definitely not enough for him.

He rented more than a dozen acres of land to plant with the village chief Liu Wenjie, but in fact he was the Liu family tenant farmer.

There are two dilapidated blue brick houses, lime and valley ash, and blue bricks are exposed in some places, and the walls are still painted. It is probably painted with white lime mortar before asking for help.

A new house with mud walls and straw roofs was built next to the house. Needless to say, it was just a pile of miscellaneous items, farm tools and straw rooms.

There is a pigpen on the edge, which raises two pigs. There is a small open space in front of the house, and there are more than a dozen chickens freely raised.

One of the doors in the two rooms was open, so the brother and sister went in by themselves.

This is a living room with 2 children playing in the house. The older one is about four years old, and the other is stumbling and learning to walk.

Chen Tianhua took a look and found that except for the hanging straw hat, straw raincoat and bamboo blue, there was nothing valuable.

Inside the house is a wooden table, three long benches, and two bamboo chairs.

The benches were all slumped on the ground, and there was also a broken porcelain bowl containing some food, which was also slumped on the ground, making a mess.

It's really called a family of vain.

Seeing someone coming in, the hostess stood up from the creaking bamboo chair.

"Sister Genzi..." Youjuan called out to her.

It was Lin Gen's wife, and Chen Tianhua also stepped forward to echo.

"It's you brother and sister. Some days ago, something happened at your house. I dragged two kids and didn't go to help. I'm sorry...hehe..."

Lin Gen's wife smiled awkwardly and said something important first, which can be considered an explanation.

In fact, on the day my father had an accident at home, many relatives did not go to the mourning hall to worship, for fear of bad luck.

But when the funeral came in the early morning, many people came. Some relatives took the initiative to carry the coffin, but most of them followed behind and sprinkled soil on the coffin. It was also considered as the friendship between neighbors and relatives.

Chen Tianhua walked in front of the house holding his father's spiritual position that day. He didn't pay attention to who was involved in the funeral.

Later, I heard from my mother that all the people who should come came still, and some of them stood a little farther away.

"We won't mention it anymore. Sister Genzi is also busy, I can understand these things." Chen Tianhua quickly made a comeback.

"Bao, bah... Look at my stinky mouth, and I mentioned these sad things again... Come and sit down..."

Lin Gen's wife said as she bent down her bucket waist, pulled up a long bench, and moved over.

Lin Gen's wife is not beautiful at all. She is twenty-five or six years old. She looks like she is in her thirties at first glance, and looks a little old.

An ordinary big face, a pair of simple big eyes, broad shoulders, tall and fat.

At a glance, you can tell that he is a carefree and lazy woman who is not good at managing the family.

Chen Tianhua was about to say a few polite words, but before he could speak, he could hear a sensation outside, with heavy footsteps.

It was Lin Gen who came from the "dong dong dong..." from the outside of the house.

"Haha, you brother and sister are here. Did you invite a drink last time? I just came out of Liu Li's house with Wu Laosan, and it was less than a minute before we broke up!"

Lin Gen spoke out loudly and shouted loudly.

"It's this matter. My mother and I have discussed it. We will invite you and Wu San Ge and others tonight. My mother will arrange for me to come and give you a prophet."

"Oh... that's right... It's almost noon now. Why don't you eat something here and then squeak it over? Otherwise, you'll go now and get to eat."

It may be due to food. During the non-busy season, you only eat two meals a day in rural areas, around 10:30 am and 4:30 pm.

The lunch that Lingen mentioned was the first meal today.

In fact, Lin Gen's family is in a difficult situation and lives a tight life. Depending on his attitude, there is nothing to eat at home, at most it is just a dustpan of sweet potatoes.

But you still have to be polite.

"No need, Brother Genzi, we came here after dinner. So, let's go over now and invite Wu Laosan and the others in person?"

Chen Tianhua saw it clearly, so he lied kindly. Why should he embarrass the master?

There are still three meals at Chen Tianhua's house. They work hard every day, which is no different from busy farming.

"That's fine. Let's hurry up and go now!" As he said that, Lin Gen took the lead and stepped out of the door.

Chen Tianhua and his sister quickly waved their hands to say goodbye to the hostess.

"Tugen, Youjuan, please go slowly. Come and sit when you have time." Lin Gen's wife held the little boy and sent him to the door to say goodbye. When she saw someone walking away, she returned to the room and breathed a sigh of relief.

My family has been unable to get rid of the pot these days. Every meal of sweet potatoes makes my stomach bloated and I keep farting.

The brother and sister bid farewell to the hostess and followed Lin Gen for a while to come to Wu Laosan's doorstep.

“Huff…”

"Sweet squid..."

"Eat slowly... no one robs you..."

Drinking porridge, chewing pickles, and carrying the sound of adults scolding children, mixed together and came from the cracks in the unclosed door.

Obviously, they have already had a meal.

Wu Laosan's family is crowded, and the situation is probably not much better than the Linggen family.
