Jianbao life

Chapter 952

When getting married in rural areas, the most important thing is the house. If parents can’t build a new house for their son, it’s hard to say whether the bride is willing to marry, not to mention that others will look down on her.

In fact, Hu Yong did not agree with his family to build a new house for him at first. After all, he will definitely live in the capital in the future, and he hardly has the opportunity and time to go home. Even if he builds a new house, it would be a waste.

However, Hu Yong's parents don't think so. They think that since Hu Yong was born here, this is his root. How could he not have a decent home?And they felt that since Hu Yong was from the capital, he should build a new house, which would look more beautiful.

Besides, wouldn't it be possible to run away if the house was built there?Even if you look at it from the perspective of doing business, you can't lose money.

Seeing that his parents insisted, Hu Yong could only agree.

However, Hu Yong has never talked about a partner, and he is not in a hurry to build a house. Before that, his parents only left the foundation for him. It was not until the second half of last year that Hu Yong was getting older and his parents became a little anxious. I started construction, but I didn't expect it to be used within a few months after it was built.

This made Hu Yong somewhat thankful that he had listened to his parents, otherwise the wedding would have to be held in the old house. In that case, he would feel a little sorry for Li Xiaoping.

When the group got out of the car, Hu Yong's parents, elder brother and sister-in-law, and Li Xiaoping's mother and daughter all came out of the house to greet them. The two old people looked like they were in their 50s, and they looked a little old probably because of hard work.Hu Yong's brother and sister-in-law also look older than their actual age.

Knowing that Chu Chen is Hu Yong's boss, Hu Yong's family members are very enthusiastic, but because of Chu Chen's identity, their enthusiasm is somewhat restrained.

After exchanging greetings for a while, everyone surrounded Chu Chen and the others to welcome them into the room.

After entering the hall, Hu Yong's parents had already prepared the food and drink. The wine was the famous Dukang wine. In Cao Cao's "Duan Ge Xing", a sentence "generosity should be generous, and worries and thoughts are unforgettable. Only Du Kang can relieve worries" has become an eternal The swan song also made Chinese people remember this historical famous wine brand.

In addition to the common chicken, duck and fish, there are also several local specialties. One of Hu Yong's mother's specialty dishes, stewed dish, is oily but not greasy, salty and palatable, delicious and mellow. The staple food of rice, together with a lighter soup, is really memorable.

Hu Yong's elder brother is quite simple and has never talked much.Father Hu didn't talk much at first, but when he drank more wine, he talked more and his voice became louder.

"Dry it!" Father Hu drained the wine in his glass in one gulp.

Hu Yong persuaded: "Dad, drink less."

Father Hu glared at him: "I know how much I can drink. Besides, Boss Chu rarely comes here, so what's the point of drinking with him?"

Seeing that Chu Chen drank all the wine in one gulp, he went on to say, "Look, Boss Chu is so refreshing. It's not like you. After only a few glasses of wine, his face turned red like a monkey's butt."

Seeing Hu Yong's embarrassed face, Chu Chen smiled and helped him out, and said, "Uncle, it's also because Hu Yong is working, so he can't drink."

Father Hu heard what Chu Chen said, and snorted, and didn't say anything more on this topic. After a while, he thought of something, and said, "Boss Chu, you are not in that second-hand business. Well……"

Before Father Hu finished speaking, Hu Yong interjected, "Dad, how many times have I told you that it's not a second-hand item, it's an antique."

"Okay, okay, it's an antique, this is the head office!" Father Hu waved his hand: "Let's continue... hey! Where did I say it?"

Hu Yong reminded silently: "You said Brother Chu is in the antique business."

"Oh, yes." Father Hu patted his forehead and said, "There is a boy named Er Dan in our village, he seems to be in this business too..."

Hu Yong interjected again: "Dad, isn't that right? Isn't Er Dan a boy who just hangs around every day? When did he start playing antiques? Besides, I haven't heard you mention why I've been here for so long!"

Hu's father said: "Erdy went out before the New Year, let me tell you what he is doing."

Hu Yong was still a little surprised: "That's not right, he just messes around, how can he understand antiques?"

Father Hu said: "How do I know about this? Anyway, Er Dan said so, and every time he came back, within a few days, someone would bring the big boss to his house to look at those bottles and cans. , those things will be bought.”

As mentioned above, some so-called "antique dealers" now go to the countryside to plant landmines, and then fabricate some stories to deceive some careless bosses.Therefore, when Chu Chen heard Father Hu's words, he felt that this bastard was very much like a partner of those "antique dealers".

Hu Yong asked, "Dad, how do you know about this?"

Father Hu said with a smile: "You don't know what Erdanniang is. As long as she knows something, the whole village, men, women and children will know it in a day or two. Her son has made money, so it's even more important to show off." .”

When Hu Yong thought about it, it was really the case. Erdan Niang is a famous gossip woman in the town. She didn’t say that Erdan was not up to date in the past. Now it’s normal for Erdan to publicize the money earned by Erdan in the village. thing.

Thinking of this, Hu Yong asked Chu Chen, "Then shall we go and have a look tomorrow?"

"Then go and have a look." Anyway, there's nothing to do tomorrow, so it's good to go and have a look to pass the time, Chu Chen nodded in agreement, and then asked: "However, you will be the groom's official the day after tomorrow. Is there anything else?"

Hu Yong said with a smile: "Everything has been arranged at home, I just need to send Xiaoping to the hotel in the town tomorrow."

Marriage must have the step of welcoming the relatives. Li Xiaoping's hometown is not close to here. If I really want to go to Li Xiaoping's house to greet the relatives, I guess I have to leave tomorrow night.But Li Xiaoping is married for the second time, and her natal family is not so particular about it, just welcome her in the hotel.

Of course, if Li Xiaoping was still a girl, the woman's parents would not be so easy to talk to.

"Okay, let's talk about this tomorrow..."

After a meal, Hu's father was already top-heavy when walking, Hu's mother hurriedly helped him back to the old house to rest, while Chu Chen and the others went to the room arranged for them to rest.

Early the next morning, just as Chu Chen and the others got up, they saw villagers coming one after another, and the yard started to make noise.

Wedding banquets in the countryside are still the old rules of the past. The banquets are all cooked by chefs at home. In addition, it is only 2002, and the materials and services are not as developed as later generations. Not to mention a lot of things to buy, and many Everything has to be prepared by yourself in advance.

Fortunately, there is something good about being in the countryside. Generally, people in the village will come to help when it comes to weddings and funerals, which undoubtedly reduces the burden on the host family.

In addition, Hujia Village is basically a big family, and Hu Yong has his parents and elder brother working there. Apart from offering cigarettes to the villagers and elders, he basically has nothing to do.

After breakfast, Hu Yong sent Li Xiaoping's mother and daughter to the hotel in the town first, because the hotel had already been arranged, and with Chu Chen and the others there, Hu Yong didn't stay in the hotel for long, so he drove back Home.

After Hu Yong returned home, he found Chu Chen and the others who were wandering in the village: "Brother Chu, I'm sorry to keep you waiting."

Chu Chen said with a smile: "There's nothing to be ashamed about. To be honest, it's rare to come to the countryside now, and it feels pretty good, and the air here is much better than that in the capital."

Wu Ke also nodded with a smile and said: "Brother Hu, you have a beautiful scenery, with mountains and waters. Isn't there a farmhouse now? I think it can be done here too."

Hu Yong smiled wryly and said: "Our scenery and resources are not bad, but the roads are too bad, and the economy is not developed. It is basically impossible to repair the roads without the support from above."

Chu Chen took over the conversation and said: "The road is not good. On the other hand, the economy here is underdeveloped, and the business of the farmhouse will not be very good. It's like a person whose money is just enough for him to eat rice. How can he risk hunger? , go buy a piece of meat and try it?"

Wu Ke smiled embarrassingly. He felt that his thinking was too simple. It seemed that he had to work harder in the future. Otherwise, how could he help Chu Chen take care of those businesses?

The group walked and chatted, and arrived at the door of Erdan's house in a short while. At this time, the door of Erdan's house was closed, and a Poussin was already parked at the door.This car should not belong to an idiot, otherwise Father Hu would definitely have mentioned it yesterday.

Seeing this, Hu Yong was surprised and said: "Hey, why are Er Dan's goods so popular? I came back yesterday, and someone came here today?"

Chu Chen shook his head slightly: "It's not necessarily that his goods are in high demand. Maybe someone has already contacted the seller."

He has been around Chu Chen for a long time, and Hu Yong also knows that the antique business is quite tricky. In addition, he thought it was wrong for Erdan to suddenly step into the antique business. Now that he heard Chu Chen say this, he quickly asked: "Chu Yong Brother, is there a problem here?"

Chu Chen replied: "The possibility is relatively high."

Hu Yong felt that Chu Chen said the possibility was relatively high, so there must be a problem: "Then shall we go in?"

Chu Chen said with a smile: "If you don't enter the tiger's den, how can you get a tiger cub? It's already here, how can you not go in and have a look?"

Wu Ke and Zuo Shan nodded with a chuckle. They were very confident in Chu Chen's eyesight, and felt that even if there was something wrong with the bastard, they would not be able to deceive Chu Chen.

"Okay, then I'll ask him to open the door." As he said that, Hu Yong stepped forward and knocked on the door with a "bang bang bang": "Dumb, open the door!"

"Come on, come on! Don't knock, you'll fall apart if you knock on the door again!"

After a while, a young man in his 20s came to open the door. He was simple-looking and dressed in very plain clothes. He looked like an honest farmer. Most people would never have guessed that this man was just dawdling in the past. of.
