Year: I had a good time when I was young

Chapter 377 As always
After being polite for a while, I handed over 60 kilograms free of charge and two sheep to the second uncle and third uncle each with half.

The second aunt stayed in the kitchen, looking at the flour and the whole sheep that had been processed, including the haggis, and couldn't help but swallow her saliva.

He secretly thought that the eldest nephew was capable and could actually get two whole sheep.

But it was already the end of May and it was too hot to store meat.

But today is the Dragon Boat Festival. The second aunt rolled her eyes and hurriedly went back to the main room and asked, "How about we all fire forward today?"

Chu Xiangqian's house is two to three hundred meters away from Linchang Village and is still on the hillside.

Get some meat or something, and the aroma will hardly reach the village.

If the wind is blowing from the north, there is no need to worry.

Chu Qianqian, who was holding the little girl Ai Qiu in his arms, understood what the second aunt meant after just a moment's thought.

Aiyuan and Aimin happened to have put their things home and came back here. Chu Qianqian immediately said to the three siblings.

"Go and help the second aunt prepare food. My second uncle and third uncle and I will go and visit my father's grave."

The second uncle and the third uncle nodded hurriedly. As for the boy Ailin, he didn't know where he went to play with the other half-grown boys in the village.

Chu Qianqian picked up Ai Qiu in his arms, "Little sister, go with your elder brother to pay homage to your uncle, and I'll get you something delicious when you come back."

Ai Qiu, who was eating dried peach preserves, nodded hurriedly, and reached out to grab all the dozen pieces of peach preserves on the table and put them in his pocket.

However, this little girl still kissed herself and knew how to put a piece in her mouth.

The second uncle and the third uncle prepared some things for worship, and soon they arrived at their father's cemetery.

People are cremated, so the cemetery is not big. Chu Qianqian put down his little sister and silently knelt on the ground, looking at the tombstone and not knowing what to say for a while.

This body has all the memories of the previous 19 years, but in the end, it is still dominated by its own memory.

I definitely have feelings for my biological father in this life, and I am grateful that he could risk his own life to pounce on the black bear, just to save his son.

In the end, I could only kowtow politely, and then silently thought in my heart that I would definitely have many children and grandchildren in the future.

Let this branch of the Chu family grow stronger in your own hands.

As for whether there would be conflicts if there were more children, Chu Xiangqian knew that was for sure.

After all, there is a high probability that he and Lan Lan will not have children alone.

But think about it, 60 years later in 0202, I will only be 80 years old.

The caretaker is healthier than his son and daughter, and those troublesome things will no longer matter immediately.

The worst case scenario is that when the children get married, a large amount of money and property will be distributed to them, which can be regarded as officially separating the family and going on their own.

Moreover, even if I leave the family property to my children after they are 40 or [-] years old.

That was already the 90s.

He left the company alone and set up an investment company, focusing on the U.S. stock market and some high-tech companies in the 90s.

In the new year, I’m eyeing several domestic companies.

There is a high probability that I will make more money in the 90s than I did before the 90s.

At that time, judging from the prestige that he had been successful for decades, the children and grandchildren in the family had to obey him honestly.

Seeing Chu Qianqian kneeling and kowtowing, Ai Qiu's face tightened, and she knelt beside Chu Qianqian and kowtowed accordingly.

When Chu Qianqian saw this, he smiled, rubbed the little guy's head, and said to himself that it's not a shame that big brother loves you so much.

The second uncle and the third uncle muttered a lot, but the main point was of course that Chu Xiangqian had not mentioned anything about his career, but also transferred his younger brothers and sisters Aiyuan, Aiguo, and Aimin to the capital, and they were given a job in the country. food.

Now, in the forest farm, the brothers don't have to risk going into the mountains to cut trees like before.

He was also promoted to the Forestry Bureau and was considered a cadre, and his salary was increased by more than ten yuan.

Chu Qianqian listened to the nagging of his second uncle and third uncle, and he didn't feel nagging at all. Instead, he was a little worried that they would not go to Hong Kong Island with him in a few years.

Originally, as long as the two forestry workers were not loudmouths, basically no one would make things difficult for them.

But during the storm, relatives abroad would be subject to scrutiny. Chu Xiangqian could only take his second uncle and his third uncle's family to Hong Kong Island in the first year or two.

But if the older generation doesn’t go now, they can let the younger generation go first.

After five or six years, I will be familiar with life on Hong Kong Island, and I will be able to take care of my parents by myself in the future.

The second uncle, second aunt and third uncle would definitely prefer to live with their respective children.

So Chu Xiangqian really planned to take a younger brother or Aiyuan to Hong Kong Island this time.

What Chu Xiangqian didn't expect was that after lunch, the person who objected the most was the second aunt.

Chu Xiangqian didn't understand why at first, until he remembered that his second aunt was at the table and told his second uncle that he wanted to send some food to his parents' family.

The second uncle looked at him at that time, and the second aunt quickly said that the weather is too hot now, and the mutton cannot be stored for long.

Rather than letting it go bad, it is better to divide some of it or take it to the commune to exchange for rations.

Chu Xiangqian didn't care about this trivial matter at all now, he just nodded and let his second uncle and aunt take care of it.

Thinking of this, Chu Xiangqian reacted.

He sighed secretly, if his second aunt was in the forest farm or in the capital, she could always send some food to her parents.

If she leaves, I really don't know if her parents and brothers can survive these two years.

Patriots and people love you, look at me, and I look at you, you will see that you have no opinion at all.

In the end, I just said, my parents and eldest brother make the decision.

However, Aiyuan quietly walked up to Chu Qianqian, lowered his head and said, "Brother, can you take me there?"

Chu Qianqian was stunned, and looked back in surprise, with a look of expectant love on his face.

But it makes sense to think about it, my cousin has a bad temper, can curse, and even hit people.

Besides, in Aiyuan's heart, his eldest brother is on Hong Kong Island, and he will definitely not ignore anything.

Chu Qianqian thought for a while and decided to take Aiyuan away.

"Okay, when I leave the capital this time, I will bring Aiyuan to help me take care of some business matters."

Chu Xiangqian had already thought about it. He didn't want to manage trivial matters, but he really needed someone he could trust to keep an eye on the company.

Moreover, it is better to love and support a girl than to allow people who love the country and the people to join your company.

Of course, Chu Xiangqian never thought of letting his second uncle, third uncle, Aiguo, Aimin and Ailin join his company.

On the contrary, Aiyuan and Aiqiu are the ones who can make him feel at ease.

And even if Aiyuan goes, Chu Xiangqian will only let her manage the goods exchange with the mainland.

Or, ask her to collect rent for you.

In the afternoon, the person in charge of the forest farm came to see me.

But this time the big guy didn't mention that he asked Chu Xiang to go hunting in the mountains.

Chu Xiangqian had already let the tits fly into the mountains as early as lunch.

In the past, pheasants, hares, and even wild boars that could be seen within three to five miles could not be found at all now.Flying further into the mountains and forests, after wandering around for a few times, I actually saw more than a dozen hunting teams, in small groups, holding shotguns.

Chu Xiangqian knew immediately that the wild beasts in the mountains were really afraid of people now.

Those who could hide must have gone into the Yanshan Mountains.

Others were basically caught.

Chu Xiangqian only agreed to see if he could get some sea salt for the forest farm.

Qin Dakui, the captain of the forest farm, and Accountant Jiang couldn't help but feel excited when they heard this.

As long as you have enough salt, you can also make bacon and preserve it if you hunt wild boars or the like.

When food is really running out, if you take it out, it will be life-saving food.

If any family really ran out of food, he would actually take out chestnuts or something to save people.

Give away 10kg or 8kg. If you resist for a week, you can wait until the grain is distributed next month.

The sky darkened in the evening, and every household was celebrating the festival. Chu Qianqian and his family also had a delicious meal of hand-picked mutton and haggis soup in a house on the hillside.

When they returned to the city the next morning, the little thing Ai Qiu cried heartbreakingly again, which made Chu Xiangqian feel very uncomfortable.

In his eyes, this little girl is not only a sister, but also because she is too young, she is like a daughter.

Ailin looked at Chu Qianqian with tears in his eyes.

But Chu Xiangqian was more willing to believe that this boy did not want to continue to stay in the forest farm, and because he was not old enough, he could not enter the capital.

Then he became sad.

When he arrived at the commune, Chu Xiangqian told Aiyuan, Aiguo, and Aimin that he had something to do in the morning and afternoon.

Let them take the shuttle bus back to the city and then go to work.

The three Aiyuan siblings have long been accustomed to Chu Qianqian being away from home from time to time.

And in their eyes, their eldest brother must have a lot of entertainment and relationships to maintain.

Chu Qianqian rode his bicycle forward, taking Da Zhuang and Hong Niu with him first.

Aiyuan suddenly pulled him and asked, "Brother, if our director comes to me and says he wants to exchange for food, what should I say?"

Chu Xiangqian knew very well that at this time, it was even more important to change with others, otherwise all the relationships he had formed in the past might be ruined.

In the past, I just couldn't eat well. If I only ate whole grains like the third uncle's family, I would be at least 6 or 7 minutes full.

Now, it would be nice to be half full.

But if you change too much and agree too easily, that won’t work either.

"I have stuff, but not much."

Speaking of this, Chu Xiangqian wanted to say that he only wanted gold bars, but thinking about what he wanted today, he could buy it on Hong Kong Island.

Exchange gold bars with supply and marketing cooperatives and steel rolling mills, and the price is only a dozen or twenty gold bars per day.

Twenty small yellow croakers only weighed 630 grams, not even a kilogram. There was really no need to worry about this.

It's better to just say that you don't have anything in your hands and can only exchange for a few dozen kilograms of dried fish.

As for what to exchange for it, tobacco, alcohol and money are all fine.

After returning to the city, Chu Qianqian looked at his watch. It was only after 9 o'clock.

I simply went to Maoer Hutong.

Entering the yard, I put the clothes drying pole up on the yard wall.

Then we walked around the house, kitchen and side room used as a storage room.

As expected, there were half a house full of bamboo baskets and baskets in the side room.

The kitchen is so clean that mice can escape.

Chu Xiangqian casually took out a pheasant, a hare, 10 jins of white flour, 10 jins of rice, and 1 jin of salt.

He looked at the cupboard and saw that a box of 10 pieces of deer glue that he left for Qin Huairu two months ago was gone.

He took out 3 more boxes and put them in the cupboard.

His attitude towards Qin Huairu and the Jia family has never changed, and there is no problem in giving Qin Huairu food.

But the person named Jia cannot do it, not even a baby of several years old.

In the main room, as soon as I entered the room, I saw more than a dozen pieces of porcelain, placed randomly on the table, the altar in the middle hall, and other places like ordinary furnishings.

Just as he was looking at each item and entering the novice village directly, the tit standing on a tree outside the yard suddenly gave him a reminder.

Focusing on the sight of the tit, he saw Qin Huairu dressed in work clothes and a straw hat on his head, walking quickly towards the yard with his head lowered.

I raised my head and glanced at the yard, and saw that there was a clothes drying pole erected. I was so excited that I almost wanted to run over there.

Fortunately, Qin Huairu was experienced. She looked around to make sure no one was paying attention to her, then turned a corner and entered the alley in the yard.

When he arrived at the door, he took a deep breath, straightened his clothes, took off his straw hat, wiped his sweat, straightened his hair, and then opened the door.

Seeing that the door to the courtyard was not locked, Qin Huairu's heartbeat did not speed up.

As soon as he entered the door, he turned around and closed the door. When he turned around, he saw Chu Qianqian just walking out of the house.

The two of them just looked at each other four or five meters apart for more than ten seconds. Qin Huairu's eyes turned red and she couldn't help but rushed over quickly.

He threw himself into Chu Qianqian's arms, suppressed his throat, and cried softly.

Chu stepped forward and patted Qin Huairu on the back, and said comfortingly, "Okay, okay, I'm back now, right? I'll get it for you if you're in need of food or use from now on."

After hearing this, Qin Huairu finally felt at ease.

"Qiang Qian, you don't know how painful I have been for more than a month. I often can't sleep at night, either thinking of you or thinking that I killed the father of the child."

Chu Qianqian was stunned and thought to himself that there must be something he didn't know about, right?

He grabbed Qin Huairu's shoulders, looked into her eyes and asked, "What are these words?"

Qin Huairu said with a sad face, "If I hadn't gotten along with you, I wouldn't have slept in the same bed as Banggeng's father.

BangGeng's father doesn't work every day. He goes to see that woman as soon as he gets off work and doesn't come home until 9 or 10 o'clock.

Nor will I fall asleep at work often and end up having an accident. "

When Chu Qianqian heard that this was the reason, he felt relieved.

"Let me ask you, did Banggeng's father hook up with that woman before I got along with you? Also, did he dislike you for having a rural household registration early on and was thinking of divorcing you?"

Qin Huairu knew that Chu Qianqian was trying to comfort her, but after all, it was about human life, and she felt guilty about getting along with someone within marriage.

It’s normal to have random thoughts.

The two rested for a few minutes before Qin Huairu recovered and lay on Chu Qianqian's chest, "You bastard, you are still like a mad cow as before. You don't know how to give in to me."
