Chapter 152: I have been working hard
Xia Chan also filled everyone's tea jars with orange juice. In fact, she originally wanted her brothers to drink. After all, the youngest brother is already over twenty years old and can drink and practice. Otherwise, he will go out of the countryside in the future. What should I do if I get tricked by others when I enter the city?
Some people don't care whether you have a wife or children, as long as you have money and she can make a profit, they will use drinking to plot against you.
Some people want to steal resources or opportunities from you, or just to ruin your reputation, and they will also use drinking to cause you trouble, so you still need to practice your drinking capacity.
She just thought that she would have to take care of her brothers when they were drunk. She couldn't take care of five of them by herself, so she used orange juice instead of wine. As for practicing drinking, there will always be opportunities for them to practice drinking in the future.
"Thank you, Xiaochan, for letting us live a life we never dared to imagine before." Xia Qi picked up the teapot and made a toasting gesture towards Xiachan.
Xia Chan picked up the teapot and clinked glasses with Xia Qi, and said with a smile, "Actually, we are able to live such a good life now because my brothers are diligent and hardworking enough, so there is no need to thank me. I really didn't do anything, so I still want to thank you." Thank you for always working hard.”
"It used to be difficult to fill our stomachs, but now we have meat to eat every day. This is something I never dared to think about before." Jin Pengfei couldn't help but blush as he spoke.
Xia Chan knew that he must be remembering things from his childhood. When his father was still alive, the allowance was sent to his grandma, who could only cover the sky with one hand, and could not reach his mother's hands, so it meant nothing to them that his father had a salary. , their life in the Jin family was not easy at all.
Later, with the help of his father's comrades, they severed ties with the old house and became neighbors with Xia Chan's family. Their life became a little easier. However, they were not old at that time and could not earn many work points and did not have much food. Except that no one bullies them, life is still difficult.
Later they grew up, earned enough work points, and lived a normal life. It was only in the past two years that their lives became better. They could eat as much as they wanted, and they could eat meat as much as they wanted. They all knew that all this was Because of Xia Chan.
Xia Chan reached out and patted Jin Pengfei's shoulder and comforted, "Brother Pengfei, if we work hard, we can live a better life than people in the city in the future. Believe me, we can live in buildings and ride bicycles in the future."
In the future, she can live in a villa and drive a car, but this is too far away and won't be possible until the 1990s, so I won't talk about it now, lest her brothers think she is bragging about not drafting.
"Well, let's work hard and save money to build a building and buy bicycles." Jin Pengfei nodded firmly. In fact, they are already rich now. Not to mention bicycles, they can afford one bicycle per person.
But they couldn't afford the consequences, so they stopped doing these eye-catching things.
Xia Chan really wanted to say, you should find a partner first, otherwise you will really become a leftover man, and no one will want him by then. Could it be that the five brothers and sisters can only work together to support themselves in old age?
Today is New Year's Eve, and tomorrow is the New Year. Jin Pengfei and Xia Qi are twenty-two years old, and they are already considered old leftover men. There is no market for them in the market.
But they were not in a hurry at all, and seemed to have no intention of marrying a wife. Xia Chan did not dare to mention it, for fear that they would reward her with chestnuts.
After a lively New Year's Eve dinner, the five brothers and sisters washed the dishes and cleared the table. After a quick wash, they soaked their feet and got on the kang. Today is New Year's Eve, and the money sharing process will begin soon. So I won’t study today.
Xia Chan just sat down and before he could speak, Xia Qi took out a small wooden box from his back and placed it in front of Xia Chan. Xia Chan was shocked, but she still opened the small box in front of everyone.
Unexpectedly, the old wooden box contained a watch. Although it was an ordinary Plum Blossom watch, it was not something that a country person could afford. Xia Chan looked up at Xia Qi in surprise and asked in confusion, "Brother, why did you buy me a watch? I have a watch!"
"Your watch was bought by an outsider, not by my brother. My brother hopes that you will not use watches bought by other men in the future, but the watches bought by your brother." Xia Qi said seriously.
Others may have designs on her, but they are sincere as brothers.
Xia Chan was very moved after hearing this, thinking that the money would be divided soon, and her brothers were not short of money, so she didn't say anything more, but happily accepted the watch.
"Xiaochan, the gift that the eldest brother bought may not be as valuable as the gift from the second brother, but the gift that the eldest brother bought was definitely carefully selected by the eldest brother." Jin Pengfei handed a large and thick-looking cloth bag to Xia Chan, and Xia Chan was pleasantly surprised. He reached out and took it. It was a little heavy, but he wasn't sure what it was.
Xia Chan quickly opened the cloth bag, and to her surprise, it turned out to be a maroon cotton-padded jacket. You must know that in this era, there were only a few colors of fabric. Red cloth was very rare, and others might not be able to wear red wedding dresses even when they got married.
But Jin Pengfei actually gave her a maroon cotton-padded jacket, which she could wear to get married.
"Brother Pengfei, thank you. You have good taste. The maroon color matches your skin very well. If I put it on, it will definitely look particularly white and look very good. I will definitely cherish this set of clothes." Xia Chan reached out and touched the thick cotton jacket. , I felt particularly moved in my heart, as if something was stuck in my chest and I wanted to cry loudly.
Jin Pengfei smiled and said, "Then try it and see if it really looks that good."
"Brother Pengfei, don't you believe me?" Xia Chan glared at Jin Pengfei angrily, then took the cotton-padded clothes to the curtain to change into, then opened the curtain and came out. Several brothers looked at Xia Chan, and they were all amazed.
Good people look good in anything they wear.
Jin Pengfei suddenly came over and hugged Xia Chan, her shoulders shaking. Xia Chan felt something cool falling into her neck. She was a little surprised, then she reached out and patted Jin Pengfei on the back, "Pengfei Brother, have you been wronged in any way?”
"I just thought that if you get married and live with other men in the future, how will we live our lives?" Jin Pengfei cried even more as he spoke, "What about other men being as good as brothers? Yes. Do you treat me like my brothers? Can you spend money freely? Can you eat as much meat as you want? ..."
The other brothers felt very sad after hearing what Jin Pengfei said. They couldn't follow Xiaochan to her husband's house. If Xiaochan was bullied, they wouldn't know it right away.
Xia Chan was really speechless. She originally thought that he had been wronged in some way, but she didn't expect that he was actually worried about her marriage.
