Chapter 16 End of the year!(1/2)
In a blink of an eye, four months passed.
It's the end of the year in a flash.
On New Year's Eve.
Zhen Lu, Widow Qin, Shi Tou, Xiao Lingdang, Xiao Xiangchun's family of five, Yi Qinghe, an old lady and a couple gathered at He Dashan's house. Together with He Dashan, He Xiaoyu and his brother and sister, and the lame old lady in the backyard, they gathered together in a room of people making dumplings together.
It's lively and bustling.
Zhen Lu looked at the lame old lady and an old lady: "The Cao family in the front yard has become wider in the past few months. I just saw that the family was full of chickens and fish, so I carried it to the back yard, and I didn't say that I was filial to the old lady."
After a few hours, the Cao family was booming, and Zhen Lushi was extremely jealous.
I only regretted that my family died early, which made Cao Zhang proud, so I took the opportunity to apply eye drops to the old lady.
"Half of my body is buried in the soil. What's the use of respecting me, an old woman?"
The lame old lady also felt a little sour when she spoke.
She naturally wanted everyone in the slums to come and respect her.
The old lady heard something wrong and said to the Cao family: "It's not easy for the Cao family. After escaping from the northwest, only five of them were left for more than a dozen people. It took only half a year to make a living to make a little better. In this way, people have not yet bought all their belongings."
If someone lives a good life, it means that the Cao family's big man is capable, has a wild path, and is willing to endure hardships.
When the Cao family arrived in the yard, your old lady didn’t stretch out her hands or said a little good words. The Cao family was filial!
It's unreasonable.
"Hey!"
"It's hard to live a good life and it's big fish and meat? I see what people eat, no one in the courtyard can compare to. Don't you think about what the five-member boy looked like when the Cao family came?"
“Slim disfigure!”
"It's worn so badly!"
"The only property is a shoulder pole, two baskets and a jar."
"Look at now--"
"The strong ones can kill the cows!"
"How many months have these?"
Zhen Lushi was sour and jealous, and the more she spoke, she became more and more angry. Seeing that an old lady was dissatisfied, she said with a sour smile: "I almost forgot that yesterday, the eldest son of the Cao family and the fifth son went to the old man's house and brought a lot of good things, right? The ones with a basket of big and small, and those who don't know thought they were going to the in-laws."
"mother!"
Widow Qin and He Xiaoyu were coming in with dumpling fillings. When they heard Zhen Lu's words, they hurriedly interrupted.
An old man and an old lady are nearly fifty years old and have nothing to do. She said she went to her in-laws in person. Isn’t this a slap in the face!
An old lady looked ugly.
But it didn't happen either.
Since the eldest son of the Zhen family was still alive, the first uncle has been close to the Zhen family and has helped a lot in the past. After the eldest son of the Zhen family, the man who was the Widow of Tan, had lost his men, he helped more often.
If there is a dispute with Zhen Lu's family, let alone Zhen Lu's combat effectiveness is second only to the lame old lady in the entire compound. Even if an old lady has the upper hand, the old man will inevitably have to fight and settle the matter.
Repeatedly.
The old lady had long stopped fighting with Zhen Lushi, which developed the confidence that Zhen Lushi dared to ridicule the old lady with her face.
Every family has a difficult sutra to recite.
It's especially hard to read for an old lady.
...
Not only the Intermediate Court.
At this time, Master Yan’s family in the front yard also talked about the Cao family.
"The Cao family is so smart!"
"At the beginning, I bought rabbits and sold them to the Sun restaurant through Xu Dazhi, and I made a lot of money."
"Later, I changed to selling fish and made more money."
"The weather has become cold in the past two months, and the price of fresh fish has risen a lot, and the Cao family's goods have never stopped."
Master Yan took a sip of the soju wine mixed with water, and sucked it, feeling uncomfortable.
The Cao family's life is getting better and better.
On the contrary, the Yan family, as the grain prices in Xijing City did not fall but rose after the autumn harvest, the Yan family's income did not change, so life would be even more difficult!
Compare the two, one up and one up.
Who doesn't feel uncomfortable?
In fact, when the Cao family started selling hares, Master Yan wanted to follow suit, but unfortunately he couldn't get the source of goods at all.
After the Cao family started selling fish, he went to the dock to inquire, but he had no way to buy some miscellaneous fish, and it was impossible for those big fish of good quality to take them.
If you buy and sell miscellaneous fish, wouldn’t you become a complete fishmonger?
What other face does this mean for a scholar?
The eldest son of the family is not happy to do this.
The most important thing is to make money.
Master Yan also wondered: "Where did the Cao family come from? It's so wild!"
"What other way?"
"The Cao family's Dalang is in the Caishui Gang, and along the Caishui River, it is all of the Caishui Gang's territory. What big fish do you want?"
Yan Bi's face was full of envy.
In terms of geographical location, the entire slum is closest to the Cao family. In addition, the Cao family has a "hate of robbing houses" towards the Yan family, so they naturally pay more attention to it on weekdays.
However, no one expected that in just four or five months, the Cao family would flourish like this.
Some of the hostility of the past has long disappeared with time.
Now Yan Bi and Yu Li are thinking about earning more money so that they can move out as soon as possible. This will prevent Master Yan and their young couple from calculating clearly and clearly.
And this profitable business is probably going to fall into the Cao family.
"Let me go to the Cao family?"
"What do you think!"
"When we get along with the Cao family, do we still have a reputation for our family?"
When Master Yan heard this, his head shaking like a rattle and refused.
"Why did it delay reputation when you get close to the Cao family?"
"Xu Dazhi's family is close to the Cao's family. I don't know how much I have made in the past six months!"
"There is also an old man's house! An old woman is getting close to Aunt Cao. Yesterday I saw it really. Cao Ren took a basket of eggs and two big carp and went straight to the old man's house."
Yu Li was not convinced.
Their family is closest to the Cao family. If they have better relationships, how can they not benefit from it? If they bow their heads and take it softly, if they can earn money and make a living, what is the point of being a little face?
Not to mention that the Yan family was afraid that Cao Ren was a worldly scattered and did not dare to bite him randomly, and the two families did not really break up at all.
"Okay! Don't discuss it again!"
"Other people's family is someone else's family! Our family is a student, and we are not the same people as the gang!"
Master Yan refused to let him go.
Yan Bi looked embarrassed and dared not speak anymore.
Yu Li was so angry that she bit her teeth, angry that her father-in-law was too stubborn, and that her man was not good at doing well, so she couldn't help but hide in the house to wipe her tears.
...
I finished eating at Xu Dazhi's house at noon.
Back home.
Cao Zhang also mentioned it: "There are several companies in the yard asking me about it and want to ask the boss to introduce the way and do some water business."
"Pooh!"
"Think beautifully!"
Before Cao Ren could open his mouth, Cao Xian spat, his eyebrows and eyes wide open.
She is the most vengeful.
When I first came to the slum, no one in the yard liked the Cao family and everyone joked. Later, under the guidance of Cao Xin, Cao Xian and Cao Zhang went to find an old lady. In addition, the family life gradually improved, so there were more interactions between neighbors and neighbors.
But it's just mediocre.
Want your elder brother to introduce the business to them?
