Chapter 98 Giving Clothes
The second aunt quickly prepared the meal. Because she didn’t like the third uncle and grandpa, a poor relative, the meal was not very rich. It was just a plate of scrambled eggs and some A pot of potatoes, cabbage and bacon stew, the staple food is steamed buns.
But with this treatment, the old man still thinks it’s too good.
Chu Jianshe also opened a bottle of Erguotou. The three generations of old, middle-aged and young people at the table chatted and soon drank a few glasses of wine. The third uncle and grandpa, who had never been embarrassed to mention the matter of borrowing food, also Finally spoke.
This old man, who never frowned even when he was going through a sea of blood, now had to lower his proud and stubborn head for the sake of the lives of his whole family.
With a red face, he said to the two men who were in charge of the Chu family: "I really had no choice, so I found your family. This year, the fields were plagued by insects, and the harvest was reduced by 30%, and the rations were all allocated. You can't survive the winter, you...you Let's see if you can... lend me some, and I'll return it when the food is distributed next year."
The second aunt next to her put down her chopsticks, her face became slightly gloomy, and she kicked it gently under the table. She slapped her husband in the face and hinted to him not to be a big head.
It’s not that the second aunt is cold-tempered, it’s because she really can’t afford to help these poor relatives. If you help these poor relatives today, maybe there will be a group of people coming tomorrow. Even if their family’s conditions are good, they can’t stand it. Such a disaster.
Unexpectedly, Chu Jianshe was unmoved. He had always admired his distant third uncle who had been upright for most of his life. He also knew that the old man really couldn't live any longer, otherwise he would not be able to survive. I would not shamelessly come to beg him, a relative who has given me the fifth service.
He picked up the wine glass with a smile, touched it gently with the old man, and said: "Third uncle, our family is rich with thirty kilograms of stick noodles and more than ten kilograms of sorghum rice. You can take them with you when you leave. ”
The old man was very excited when he heard this. Although the more than forty kilograms of food was not much for his large family, if he saved a little food, it could still save his family's life. As long as they could survive until spring, There are wild vegetables to eat, so you can survive no matter what.
Just as he was about to stand up and thank him for his life, the big dog owner next to him suddenly interrupted: "I still have fifty or sixty kilograms of stick noodles. I will bring them to my third uncle and grandpa later."
< br>For him who has millions of kilograms of grain and oil, he is still happy to do this kind of thing where a few kilograms of grain can save the lives of a family. Saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. It’s time to accumulate merit for your children.
But this guy is not the Holy Mother. His good deeds are all based on his preference. If you are interested in him, you can help him, but if he is unhappy, no one can take a piece of food out of his hand!
The third uncle and grandpa saw that his uncle and nephew had lent him so much food in one breath. His eyes were red with excitement. He stood up with a "hurrah" and knelt down like a jade pillar pushing down a mountain of gold: "I'll give it to you." You kowtow!”
"Oh, aren't you going to shorten our lifespan?" Chu Heng quickly helped the old man up and said in a dumbfounded voice: "It's just a little food, we won't be like this, who has never been in trouble? What if our family is in trouble in the future? If you encounter difficulties, just give me a helping hand.”
“I didn’t say anything. In the future, whenever you need help from our house, just say hello." The old man slapped his chest loudly, and finally promised firmly: "Don't worry, I will definitely return the food!"
Then! The second aunt next to her turned green and stared at Chu Heng coldly, telling him not to be stupid.
Fifty or sixty kilograms of stick noodles, can’t you go on?
Unfortunately, Chu Heng’s Divine Friendship skill was not activated. He did not understand the second aunt’s eyes at all. Instead, he thought she was praising him and continued to drink and eat with a playful smile.
Make the second aunt so angry that she grinds her teeth!
After the banquet was over, Chu Heng and his third uncle and grandpa left with the food.
The second aunt, who had been holding back for a long time, finally got angry. She pinched the second uncle’s ears and scolded him: "You give dozens of kilograms of grain to a poor relative. How can you not survive this day? What if this happens again? Come a few more, will our family Do you have to break up?”
“Third uncle is really in trouble, we can’t just sit back and watch.” Chu Jianshe smiled and took his wife’s hand, hesitated for a moment, then bent down and picked up Er. Auntie, turned around and entered the bedroom.
"What are you doing! Put me down!" the second aunt angrily slapped him on the back.
"Let's go into the house and say, don't disturb the child's sleep!" The two quickly entered the bedroom. They were still arguing at first, but after a while there was no movement
A long and long time passed like this.
The second aunt, who was finally convinced, panted and lay on her man's chest, rolled her eyes at him with satisfaction, and said softly: "I still have some old clothes at home, give them to the old man later. Go."
"Okay." The exhausted Chu Jianshe nodded weakly and fell asleep as soon as he closed his eyes.
Third uncle, you owe me a huge favor!
......
The third uncle and grandpa set out from home to Sijiu City before dawn this morning. He had traveled a long way, braved the wind and snow, and was already exhausted. In addition, he had drunk Ordered some wine, returned to Chu Heng's house, lay down and fell asleep.
Good guy, this snores like he fell into a pig pen.
Because Chu Heng had to accompany Hu Zhengwen to chase girls at night, he didn't go to bed. He took out the antique guide given by the old man and ran to the lamp to read it with relish.
It's late at night and the lights are dim.
The young man was so intoxicated among the books that he almost forgot himself.
The only drawback is that only the old man snores, and there is no red sleeves to add fragrance.
At around ten o'clock, Hu Zhengwen ran over.
When he entered the room and saw an old man lying on the bed, he was stunned: "Monitor, who is this person?"
"Relatives from the countryside." Chu Heng was still reading the book without raising his head. He naturally pointed to the empty enamel jar next to him and said, "Pour me a glass of water."
"Oh. ”
Hu Zhengwen quickly picked up the iron thermos pot placed by the stove and walked forward. He filled a glass of water for him, wiped himself, found a cup for himself, and poured some water from his enamel jar. .
After Ziyouyou drank a few cups of tea, seeing that Chu Heng still had no intention of getting up, he couldn't help but start urging: "Squad leader, it's almost eleven o'clock, shall we go? "
"It only takes twenty minutes from me to the food factory. What are we going to do now? If you are in a hurry, just go by yourself." Chu Heng rolled his eyes at this guy and lowered his head to continue reading.
Hu Zhengwen was afraid that he wouldn't accompany him, so he quickly shut up and didn't dare to push any more. He could only keep his head down and continue pouring water and drinking tea. It was like his butt was sitting on a nail, and he kept twisting there. If it wasn't That chair is of good quality, but it might fall apart!
After staying up until eleven twenty, Chu Heng slowly put down the book, stood up slowly, stretched his body, and then squinted at the idiot next to him who looked like an ant on a hot pot: " Clothes.”
“Oh!”
Hu Zhengwen quickly took the cotton jacket hanging on the wall and gave it to him.
After getting dressed neatly, the two of them pushed into the car and set off. They drove at a brisk pace and arrived at the place in less than twenty minutes.
At this time, many people had gathered at the entrance of the food factory, all family members who came to pick up their family members after get off work. A group of people gathered together to chat. There were big melons and small melons flying all over the sky, which was very lively.
