Year: I had a good time when I was young

Chapter 679: Officially giving Feifei Hong Kong students a status

Chu Xiangqian stared at Aimin and Ailin and practiced martial arts for more than an hour before letting them go to change clothes and have breakfast.

Then he watched Ai Qiu perform a set of Baguazhang in a serious manner. Although he looked lackluster, he was very skillful in doing so.

It seems that the little girl has practiced a lot in the past, and she has practiced very hard.

As for whether he has the talent to practice martial arts, in Chu Xiangqian's eyes, no one's talent is as good as his own.

However, if Xiao Qiu'er continues to practice like this for three to five years, then he, the eldest brother, will also start to teach her real kung fu.

But before that, we still have to test Ai Qiu’s character.

Otherwise, after practicing kung fu, he would break the law for hitting someone. This is not what Chu Qianqian, the eldest brother, wants to see.

I asked Aiqiu why she started to like martial arts.

The little thing chuckled and whispered that he could beat several nearby boys of similar size by himself.

There are also children in kindergartens, many of whom like to follow behind them and be followers.

After hearing this, Chu Xiangqian's mouth twitched a few times, and he couldn't help but think of the scene the year before last when Xiao Qiu'er had just moved to the courtyard, and one day she beat Bang Gang, who was two years older than her, to tears.

Ai Qiu grew up in a forest farm. In the wilderness environment, her temperament was indeed a bit wild. She was indeed much tougher than the sweetheart she was always treated as.

Then he hurriedly asked, "Did someone bully you in kindergarten?"

Ai Qiu shook her head blankly and murmured for a while. Only then did Chu Xiangqian know that when she first entered the kindergarten for children of the steel rolling mill last year, there were indeed a few little boys who disliked her for coming from the countryside.

But at most he just didn't play with her, but he didn't really bully her.

But later Chu Xiangqian also asked her to practice martial arts, treating it as a physical exercise. Unexpectedly, while practicing, she once beat up a little boy in the next class.

This matter was not reported to the teacher, probably because the culture of stubbornness in Beijing is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Even children want to save face, and calling their parents if they lose in a fight is the most embarrassing thing.

That's why the teacher didn't let Ai Qiu call her parents, and the Chu family didn't know about it.

But this matter spread widely among the children around the courtyard.

Then, around the courtyard, he beat up a few children from other courtyards, and Ai Qiu became even more motivated to practice martial arts.

Recently, all the children in this area like to play with her. Even those two or three years older than her, several have become her followers.

After hearing this, Chu Qianqian smiled and rubbed his little sister's head, and warned, "Don't bully others intentionally."

Ai Qiu nodded quickly, and Chu Xiangqian thought about it and felt that it would be no problem for him to pass on his kung fu to his younger brothers and sisters, but he could see through the talents of Ai Guo, Ai Min and Ai Lin at a glance.

It is true that he started practicing martial arts too late. Ai Lin was already 13 years old when he started practicing, and Ai Guo and Ai Min were 17 and 1 respectively.

Only little thing Aiqiu still has some hope.

Thinking of this, I glanced at some long old bridge stones unused in the front yard.

Walking over, a long stone about 1.4 meters long and 40 meters wide was erected casually.

He said to Ai Qiu, "Watch it."

After saying that, under the watchful eyes of Ai Qiu and five or six other young men in the yard who had nothing to do after getting up, Chu lowered his horse forward, gathered his luck, and punched the stone with a fierce punch.

There was only a muffled sound, and the stone was shattered by his punch.

Ai Qiu jumped up excitedly, ran to Chu Qianqian in a few steps, and jumped into his arms.

The young men watching the excitement were first shocked and then turned pale.

This is a rectangular stone 40 centimeters wide and 1 meter long, and because it is an old bridge stone, even if someone hits it with a hammer, it will take many times to make a small hole.

But Chu Xiangqian broke the stone with just one punch, and broke it into dozens or hundreds of pieces. If it hit a person, it would only break a few ribs.

There is a high probability that he will be beaten to death directly.

Ai Qiu was still young, so she didn't care about so much. She felt that her elder brother was extremely powerful. While she was excited and admired him, she naturally wanted to become as powerful a master as Chu Xiangqian in the future.

After being picked up by Chu Qianqian, she put her little hands around his neck and shouted excitedly, "Brother, I will become as powerful as you in the future."

Chu Qianqian laughed, pointed at the gravel on the ground to Yan Jiekuang, who was already 15 years old in the Yan family, and asked him to clean it up in a while.

Yan Jiekuang nodded hurriedly, and waited until he saw Chu Qianqian carrying Ai Qiu back to the east wing.

I took a few friends with whom I had a good relationship and walked over quickly to see if the broken stone fragments had been decayed by blisters or were still as hard as ever.

After confirming that even the gravel was as hard as granite, these young people couldn't help but swallow their saliva and thought to themselves, don't mess with the Chu family.

And the focus is on the little girl from the Chu family.

Otherwise, if Chu punches him forward, he will either be killed or maimed.

If Chu Qianqian uses a dirty trick, it is clear that he just slaps you on the arm, but in fact it has secretly hurt your heart, then you may be a useless person who can't lift your hands and gets out of breath after walking a few steps for the rest of your life.

Chu Xiangqian carried his excited little sister into the east wing and asked Xue Jinglan, who had just woken up, to change her underwear to avoid catching a cold due to sweating.

Ai Qiu had always listened to Chu Xiangqian's words, but now that she knew her elder brother was super powerful, she became even more obedient.

Urging Xue Jinglan to change her clothes quickly, she ran out of the bedroom, pestered Chu Qianqian and started asking questions.

Chu Xiangqian simply showed his hand again, turned his palm in front of Ai Qiu, and a flying knife appeared in his hand.

At this time, not only Ai Qiu looked in disbelief, but Xue Jinglan also came over curiously and reached out to touch his sleeves.

He was even more surprised when he didn't find the flying knife hidden under his sleeves.

Chu swung his hand forward, and the flying knife in his hand was like a bullet, instantly hitting the door frame a few meters away.

Then he swung his hand a few more times, and 5 flying knives were thrown into the door frame in a straight line.

Seeing this, Ai Qiu's face turned red with excitement. She grabbed Chu Qianqian's hand and shouted, "Brother, teach me, teach me this quickly."

Chu Qianqian laughed and said, "Let's talk about it after you master the steps of Baguazhang."

Ai Qiu pouted in dissatisfaction, but this time Chu Qianqian really aroused her desire to practice martial arts. She raised her head and said confidently, "Brother, just wait, I will definitely be able to practice my footwork."

Chu Xiangqian heard the determination of his little sister, rubbed the little guy's head, and said with a smile, "Okay, I believe you, but let's have breakfast first.

Also, practicing martial arts is not something that happens overnight, and you must eat well to avoid hurting your body. "

Because Aiguo, Aimin, Ailin and Aiqiu are all practicing martial arts, they always have a good breakfast.

In addition to eating porridge and Erhe noodles and steamed buns, each of the four younger siblings now has an egg every morning.

If you go to the Qianmen Courtyard, there is no shortage of meat buns, soy milk, wontons and fruits. Here in Luogu Lane, you can only have one egg per person. But now there is no shortage of rice porridge and steamed buns.

This is definitely considered a luxury in this day and age.

Although the neighbors in the yard are envious, everyone knows that except for Ai Lin and Ai Qiu, the second and third bedrooms of the Chu family are all full-time workers.

Six workers, plus Ai Lin and Ai Qiu, also receive fixed grains. The total amount of rice or flour they receive every month is more than 6 kilograms.

It is really not a problem to let children eat Erhe noodle steamed buns.

In addition, Chu Xiangqian knew how to hunt, and exchanged game meat and units such as the steel rolling mill for rations, which was now considered a serious job.

If someone wanted to cause trouble over this matter, Chu Xiangqian could immediately produce an official document from the steel rolling mill, acknowledging that his hunting in the mountains was official business.

If you can get more rice and flour every month, no one can cause trouble for Chu Xiangqian.

Not to mention, Chu Xiangqian would help the neighbors in the yard to get some chestnuts or big fish every year, and no one wanted to see anything happen to him.

When Qin Jingru started eating like the four brothers Aiguo and Aimin, she felt so excited.

Not to mention that one egg, white porridge, and steamed buns with noodles are enough every day. Even if it's just sweet potatoes and steamed buns, it's already a good life that I couldn't even imagine when I was in Qinjiazhuang.

When I think about my parents’ home, I only had a bowl of wild vegetable porridge with far more wild vegetables than cornmeal, or very thin millet porridge, and how I started to feel hungry again after eating a few times.

Qin Jingru felt that her current life was so beautiful.

Only those who have been hungry will cherish the hard-won good days.

Not to mention just making breakfast and dinner for her husband's family every day, she is willing to pay for all the clothes and housework in the house.

After breakfast, Chu Qianqian said to his second uncle, second aunt and third uncle, "Lanlan and I won't be living here starting tomorrow."

The second uncle and others nodded. The Qianmen courtyard was almost as big as the courtyard here, but only four people including Chu Qianqian and his wife lived there, as well as eight other people including Sister Tao and Zhao Di.

Moreover, the decoration and layout are better. If it were him, he would definitely be willing to live in a big house, not to mention that Chu Xiangqian didn't let Hong Kong Sheng and Feifei attend the patriotic wedding banquet yesterday.

Hong Kong students and Feifei naturally wanted to get married patrioticly, but this was not Hong Kong Island, and marriage and concubinage had long been prohibited.

Although Chu Xiangqian knew that no one would cause trouble for him.

But among the neighbors and the residents of Luogu Lane, it was inevitable that some would gossip, so they were not allowed to attend the wedding banquet.

The two little girls didn't say anything, but they must be sad in their hearts. After Chu Qianqian returned, he would definitely comfort the two little wives.

However, Xue Jinglan secretly enjoyed herself all day, but for the sake of future family harmony, she also knew that she had to give Hong Kong Sheng and Feifei some benefits when she returned.

Returning to the Qianmen Courtyard, Hong Kong Sheng and Feifei looked unhappy as expected. Chu Qianqian stepped forward and hugged the two of them, "When we return to Hong Kong Island, I will take you two to apply for a marriage certificate, and then how about we go on a trip as a family?"

Hong Kong Sheng and Feifei were stunned. Although it was definitely the concubine's marriage certificate, it also meant that they had truly become members of the Chu family.

Moreover, although Hong Kong Island recognizes concubinage, it also explicitly raises the status of concubines.

It is no longer the old society where concubines can be given away casually.

You can divorce if you want, but the concubine is also eligible to claim some family property, and the children have inheritance rights.

Of course, it is difficult to say if it is actually implemented.

But the more famous they are, the more they will spend money to appease their concubines as long as their demands are not excessive.

Xue Jinglan is not worried. Although she and Chu Xiangqian got married in the capital and got a marriage certificate from China, everyone in the Chu family, old and young, as well as Chu’s friends, business partners and lawyers in Hong Kong knew She, Xue Jinglan, is the daughter-in-law of the Chu family's Ming matchmaker.

Hong Kong Sheng and Feifei couldn't care less about being angry now. They excitedly threw themselves into Chu Qianqian's arms, hugging him tightly and not letting go.

I heard Chu Xiangqian continue to say, "Okay, okay, let's think about where to spend our honeymoon after getting the certificate.

By the way, I'd like to change my and Xiao Lan'er's marriage certificate to one from Hong Kong.

By then, the four of us can go to Mount Fuji, Hokkaido, Bali, Hawaii, Africa or Europe to see lions. "

Now not only Hong Kong Sheng and Feifei were excited, but even Xue Jinglan began to admire her.

The three women just said a word to each other and soon forgot what happened yesterday.

It was not until noon that the three of them decided to take a trip to Europe. If Chu Xiangqian had enough time, after leaving Europe, they would go to the African grasslands to see lions.

Chu Xiangqian calculated that the trip would take at least ten or twenty days.

If the schedule was more relaxed, I wouldn't be able to stop for a month.

But Chu Xiangqian did not refuse this time, but before setting off, he still flew to Los Angeles alone.

That night, Ichiro Matsuno drove a van and appeared in a valley near the ranch with $3 million in cash.

Chu Xiangqian took the 3 million in cash and asked Matsuno to go to Panama first.

I stayed with my master, his wife, and my uncle at the ranch for three days. In the evening, I also played with Maria Tucker in the wooden house next to the artificial lake at the ranch several times.

During the day, he processed and checked the ranch's accounts, then crossed the US-Mexico border on horseback and arrived at the outskirts of Tijuana, a city on the northwest border of Mexico.

Fly directly to Panama in a small propeller private plane.

Put the money in a warehouse, then notify Ichiro Matsuno and wait for the ninja to pick it up, and then through the tits, watch the ninja successfully transport the money to Pablo.

Get the bill of lading for the 29 tons of grain that Pablo bought from Latin America and stored at the Brazilian port terminal.

Then he flew back to the ranch, then flew to Hong Kong Island and handed the documents to Qian Guotai.

He handed it over to the superiors, who arranged for people to pick up the goods in Brazil and transport them back to China.

When meeting Qian Guotai, Chu Xiangqian asked specifically, "I shouldn't need to purchase large quantities of grain from foreign countries this year, right?"

Qian Guotai nodded, "The comrades who went to Canada to discuss food procurement have finally made considerable progress with Canada and the Chinese people on the issue of food procurement.

If nothing goes wrong this time, we should be able to purchase 100 million to 150 million tons of wheat.

Together with your batch of 29 tons, we can basically survive the first half of the year and the difficult months before the grain harvest.

Chu Xiangqian knew that although droughts continued to occur in many provinces in 62, in the second half of the year, the drought that lasted for four or five years was truly over.

Even if there are still grain harvest failures in some areas, the affected area is no longer the entire province, or even several provinces.

Naturally, it will not affect the whole country.

In other words, from now on, when Chu Xiangqian and Pablo do bank business, all they receive will be cash.
