Chapter 109: The Wild Boar Fighting Plan Caused by Sending Watches
In the kitchen, Wang Mudan, the second sister, and the third sister are very busy. "Xiao Qiao" is "getting married", which is a big event in the family.
The two opened their hearts, and now they enjoy doing everything together. They feed pigs from time to time, feed chickens from time to time, cut grass and feed sika deer.
We have to have a good drink tonight, and the dishes are of course indispensable. We will kill a chicken and stew the meat, as well as the soft-shelled turtles and eels that the children have caught in the past few days.
Everyone was so busy that there was no need to find Xiaodong’s matchmaker. Zhang Yanjun acted as it. In fact, he could also be a matchmaker. If he hadn’t introduced Xiaodong to Liu Chen, there would be no Xiaodong and Youdi.
love affair.
Youdi went to the toilet. No matter how tired these two people are, they can't go to the toilet and they should follow. Xiaodong ran to Liu Chen's side and said embarrassedly: "Brother, I want to give Youdi a gift, but also
Want to ask you for help?"
"It's a gift for Fourth Sister. It's a sentimental thing. What is it? Please tell me."
"Do you have a couple's watch? I wanted to give it to Youdi, but my father took my watch away." Zhang Xiaodong said with his head lowered in embarrassment.
This is a great relationship. Is selling my watch to my brother-in-law a compliment? After all, this is a couple's watch. It would be a little unreasonable to give it to Liu Chen. I'd better support Xiaodong's feelings and sell it.
Liu Chen looked embarrassed and shook his head: "Oh, you have found the right person. I happen to have a pair. I originally wanted to wait for my sweetheart to give them to her. No, God will not give them to me. Now I will give them to her.
You."
Liu Chen brought some couple watches this time, but they have to be made very precious and rare, so that others will cherish them.
Liu Chen walked into the house, opened the box, and placed a brand new couple's watch inside.
Zhang Yanjun saw it, stretched his neck to look at it, and said with a smile: "This is beautiful, this pair is really good."
Zhang Xiaodong smiled from ear to ear. He immediately took out the man's watch, put it on his hand, looked at it again and again, and put it on his wrist again: "Okay, it looks good."
I untied it again and put it in the box to bring it back later.
He took the lady's one in his hand again, blushed, and said with a smile: "This one looks good too. Youdi will definitely like this one."
After saying that, he carefully put the watch in the box and packed it up first so that Youdi wouldn't see it. Then he would take it out to Youdi during dinner. Xiaodong imagined Youdi's joy and excitement when she saw the watch.
Love, he couldn't help but laugh.
"Yes, yes, our Xiaodong is so excited that his hands are shaking."
"That's right, this good thing is coming soon. I'll ask my uncle and aunt to propose marriage again later, and we can get married by setting a date."
Zhang Yanjun patted Xiaodong's shoulder, and Xiaodong lowered his head in embarrassment.
"How much? This is my future brother-in-law, so I'll give you some discount."
Liu Chen thought to himself, this brother-in-law needs to pay more attention to it, he must show the majesty of the brother-in-law. Then he thought, let's forget it, because he is afraid that the fourth sister will know about it and beat him up.
"Forget the money, my brother-in-law can't make money from you, right?"
Xiaodong took out the money and stuffed it into Liu Chen's hand, and quickly went out to find Youdi.
"Oh, you slave women, we just separated and then we stuck together again."
"Here, let me help you count."
Zhang Yanjun took the money from Liu Chen's hand, counted it, and laughed.
Seeing Zhang Yanjun's weird laughter, Liu Chen felt that there must be something fishy about this. He stared at Zhang Yanjun and asked, "What are you laughing at?"
Liu Chen took the money, counted it, then put the money in his pocket and said angrily: "This guy actually gave me two hundred and five."
Liu Chen shook his head and curled his lips and said, "It seems that my brother-in-law has to give him some color to see, otherwise he won't know why the flowers are so red."
Here Liu Jiefang called Liu Chen and Zhang Yanjun, saying that the cabinets here were ready and asked for help to lift the wardrobe. There were too many and there was almost no room to put them.
"How many legs do you want to beat?"
Seeing that there are a lot of wood placed in the house, such as jujube, fir, and locust, looking at this posture, it is estimated that it has at least sixteen legs.
"The necessary thirty-two legs may be more than that. We also need to buy a few more stools, otherwise there won't be enough seats to sit while eating."
When Zhang Yanjun heard this, he said, "Oh my gosh, it will be enough to get a wife now, and I won't have to worry about it at all." His family only had sixteen legs at first, and his wife was very happy, and later she added a few more chairs.
Liu Chen had all taken care of the cabinets, beds, Eight Immortals table, tables, kitchenware, etc. Now that they were taken care of, he would come and deliver them all.
The Eight Immortals table was ready, and several people helped to carry it over, as well as the large wardrobe, which was slowly carried over.
These days, you can just go up the mountain and chop some wood, and you don’t have to pay for it. You just need to pay for it, and just give you something when the time comes. This is not the case in later generations. It is convenient to prepare more for your own use.
Liu Chen wanted to make two rocking chairs, one for his father Liu Jiefang, and one for him to lie down when he was fine. He didn't have to do anything with the rattan, just let Hu Zi and the others cut some, and he could just hand over the cigarettes.
After working for more than an hour, the food here is almost ready, and the food is put on the table. This is really a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law, and the more she looks at her, the more she likes her.
Wang Mudan saw Xiaodong coming over with a smile on her face, not to mention how happy she was.
Tonight's meal was very rich, including braised pork, scrambled eggs with leeks, roasted local chicken with dried bamboo shoots, cold cucumbers, braised eels, and spicy loach. Liu Chen cut up the vacuum-cooked beef and made some spiced peanuts.
Pour the wine brought by Zhang Yanjun. Zhang Xiaodong is the protagonist today, so this wine is of course indispensable.
The children took steamed buns and pieces of meat and listened to "Little Trumpet" again just like last night.
The courtyard of the new house was once again crowded with people, each bringing stools and chairs to listen to the radio.
"Tell me, why are the Youdi sisters not here today?"
"Don't you know? My dog Sheng told me that Youdi got married to the quality inspector at the grain station."
Aunt Zhang, the king of gossip, almost bulged her eyes when she heard what Aunt Li said. She said in surprise: "Accountant Liu is going to have a great career. His son has just built a big house and is making furniture. This girl
I found another person who eats commercial food, and this family will be great from now on."
"God still has eyes. From now on, Wang Mudan will be a popular drinker."
Aunt Li stood at the back, leaning against the locust tree, shaking her head. She felt miserable. Thinking of her lazy and lazy son, she was so angry that her head hurt. Her son was not active at work all day long, and would occasionally go to work.
Absence from work, drinking, or being drunk on the road. When drunk, I beat my wife or my children. It’s really not easy to worry about.
Aunt Li married into this village with Wang Mudan. She gave birth to two sons in a row. Wang Mudan has always been a daughter. At first, she looked down on her. But now she realizes that none of her sons are worry-free, and so are the daughters who married.
No one can do it.
It can be said that things are changing.
The people in the front were listening to the radio, but the people in the back couldn't hear it very clearly anyway, so they started chatting directly.
While they were eating here, Zhang Xiaodong suddenly stood up, looked at Youdi with a smile, and said, "Youdi, let me give you a gift."
Everyone looked at Xiaodong. What does Xiaodong want to give? He hasn't gone home yet, so how can he prepare it?
Youdi also stood up and looked at Xiaodong shyly.
Zhang Xiaodong took out a box, opened it, took out the women's watch first, then took Youdi's hand over, and put the watch on Youdi's wrist.
Youdi looked at her watch, lowered her head, and smiled, not to mention how beautiful it was.
Xiaodong put the other one on his wrist and looked at Youdi with a smile.
Except for Liu Chen and Zhang Yanjun, everyone present looked at them with wide eyes.
Oh my God, that's a couple's watch. It's not cheap. The most important thing is that it looks so good. This Xiaodong is really sincere.
"Sit down, sit down and eat some meat."
The two sat down and looked at each other with a smile.
The sisters looked envious. This little brother has a watch, and so does the little sister.
Liu Chen said before that he wanted to get a watch for Youdi, but Youdi didn't want anything from it. It would cost money, and there was no need to wear one for herself. She insisted on getting one after she got married. Liu Chen had no choice but to give it up.
Youdi didn't know that this was sold to her brother-in-law by her younger brother. If she found out, she wouldn't know what to say to herself.
Liu Chen also thought about giving it to them, but it was a couple's watch and it felt inappropriate to give it as a gift.
Liu Kunxiang looked at Youdi's watch. This accountant is really amazing. His family has two watches. Liu Chen wore one, and now Youdi also wears one.
The eldest sister, the second sister, and the third sister also came over to take a look. This watch is really beautiful. I wish I could have one sometime. After looking at the watch, they looked at their man again, and then lowered their heads.
Several brothers-in-law lowered their heads in embarrassment. When they got married, they were so poor that they had trouble buying a couple's watch and even having a full meal.
Watches, not to mention women want them, but I also want them. The key is that this thing not only requires money, but also tickets. Not everyone can get these tickets.
"Brothers-in-law, do you want it? Work hard and buy one for your wife."
This is not nonsense, this is a watch, who wouldn't want it? If you have a watch, take it with you when you have nothing to do, and walk on the country road, then you will be the leader of the whole team.
Work hard, how to work hard? I don’t know if I can buy it in this life based on work points.
Liu Chen looked at everyone and knew what everyone was thinking. This was the result Liu Chen wanted.
"Let's do this. When you are not at work, a few of you go up the mountain to hunt wild boars. You can live or die. I will collect them. My second uncle is the leader. He has a lot of drinking parties and a bad stomach. There are also leaders around him.
, I have a bad stomach. When the time comes, I will ask the second uncle to help him find a way to get a watch, and get one for each of you."
Anyway, there are a lot of wild boars in this era, and there is no talk about wild boar animal protection.
The rice will be ripe soon, and the corn, soybeans, etc. will soon grow up. There are so many crops, and everything that comes into contact with the crops must be removed.
"We, the people, know about this, so don't get angry yet."
That's natural. Who would say such a good thing? Wouldn't it be a problem for oneself? Everyone knows about it and has gone to get a watch, so how can one buy a watch?
