=============================

Chen Chen didn't want them to think too much about it, so he directly concluded: "No matter what, just plant it."

Mrs. Li also thinks this is the reason, "No, it's also thanks to those peppers being grown, otherwise how can I live such a comfortable year."

"It's a good day." Chen Jianlan didn't know about those things at all, and she didn't have the desire to mention them. "Now everyone in the ten miles and eight villages knows about it, and life at home will be easier in the future."

Mrs. Li smiled, "That's not true."

After laughing and chatting for a while, Chen Jianlan asked, "Then do you want to do chili business next year?"

"Of course we have to do it." For a while, Mrs. Li didn't understand what was so obvious about this matter, "It's hard to get through these days, so I must not be lazy anymore, otherwise I won't have a good life in the future."

Chen Jianlan hesitated to speak, "Then..."

Chen Xiangwu glanced at her.

Mrs. Li also heard something was wrong, "What's wrong?"

Chen Jianlan glanced at the people in the room, and asked: "Then can we do this business together?"

Zheng Changhai sat on the bench nervously.

Li was stunned for a moment.

Chen Chen had already guessed the meaning, but he didn't answer immediately.

Chen Xiangwu asked, "What do you mean?"

"Isn't it good to do the chili business at home? Dad, you also know that life is hard, so I thought that if the chili business can be done, we will follow suit." Jianlan continued: "I don't seek wealth, I just hope to have some in my hand, at least during the holidays, I can buy some children's favorite food, so that I can live a good life at home, don't use money but can't even get it out .”

Chen Xiangwu looked sharply at Zheng Changhai, and Zheng Changhai said nervously, "Dad, you know what kind of family our family is. The family has no money for food and clothing, so you just think about how to earn something..."

Chen Xiangwu looked away, "It's not wrong for you to have such thoughts."

Chen Jianlan sighed, "Everyone's life is so good, don't you want to ask for an idea?"

"That's right." Of course Li understood what her daughter and son-in-law said today, but she couldn't make up her mind, so she turned to look at Chen Xiangwu, "Old man, what do you think?"

Chen Xiangwu didn't answer, but asked Chen Chen: "Xiaochen, what do you think?"

Everyone looked at Chen Chen immediately, and Zheng Changhai re-evaluated the weight of Chen Chen's words.

Chen Chen had thought about it a long time ago, and now he said: "The bad pepper business belongs to our three families. I can't give the recipe of bad pepper to you, aunt and uncle. Of course, if you can test the bad pepper by yourself Fang Zi came to pretend that I didn't say anything."

Chen Jianlan immediately said, "I don't want a prescription."

Chen Chen nodded, "Since this is the case, I have two solutions, you can refer to them, aunt and uncle."

Chen Jianlan asked quickly: "What plan?"

Chen Chen said: "Auntie, you should have heard that last year, grandpa said that we can harvest at most one mu per family in the spring pepper village this year, and what grandpa told them is how much they planted and we harvested." How much, today’s words are the same for you, aunt, if you are willing to grow peppers, then we will harvest them when the time comes.”

Chen Jianlan and Zheng Changhai's eyes widened when they heard this. How much pepper do they grow? !

Chen Jianlan asked with trembling lips, "There are quite a few families in Pingba Village, and each family has hundreds of acres of land for one mu of land, and they also need to collect peppers from uncle and the others. How can you collect so many peppers? "

"It can be accepted." Chen Chen didn't explain as much as before, but continued: "This is the first plan. If you think this plan is not reliable, you can try the second one."

Zheng Changhai asked, "What's the second one?"

Chen Chen said, "Raise chickens or raise pigs."

Except for Chen Xiangwu, the other three did not know why.

Chen Jianlan hesitated, "Raising chickens? Raising pigs?!"

Chen Chen nodded, "I plan to make some chili peppers with meat in the future. At that time, I will need chickens and pigs. If you are willing to raise them, aunts and uncles, I will take them from you."

Chen Jianlan and Zheng Changhai were shocked again. To make a pepper, you need to put meat in it? !

Who makes chili and puts meat in it? ! !

The couple are already dizzy.

Even Mrs. Li, who has heard it once, is a little dazed at the moment. Don't ask, if you ask, people who have been poor for most of their lives can't understand.

There was no reaction on Chen Xiangwu's face, but he felt that his grandson was really courageous. He hadn't made any arrangements for the soy sauce and chili, and he was already planning the meat chili.

but……

Regardless of raising chickens or raising pigs, it does take time, and it should be prepared early.

The shocked couple finally came back to their senses after a while, and Chen Jianlan confirmed it again, "Are you really planning to put meat in the pepper?"

Chen Chen answered very positively: "Yes."

"This is really good..." Chen Jianlan muttered in a daze, not knowing what to say.

Zheng Changhai also asked: "Are you sure you will accept it?"

Everyone didn't feel that this question was wrong. After all, such a big matter, how could it be decided in one sentence? Even if the two families are such close relatives, they should ask clearly, otherwise they would feel too flustered up.

"I will accept it for sure." Chen Chen was not angry either, "I mentioned this matter to my grandpa and uncle last year, but everything had to be done one by one, and I couldn't take care of it before, so if you are willing to raise chickens There is no need to worry about raising pigs, I will definitely accept them.”

Zheng Changhai himself was quite embarrassing, "The main reason is that no one has done this before, and I feel uneasy."

Chen Xiangwu said: "Being cautious is a good thing."

Zheng Changhai was relieved to see that the old man was not angry.

For such a big matter, it is definitely impossible to make a decision in a short time, so Chen Chen said at the end: "Auntie, uncle, think about it, and just tell us after you think about it."

Chen Chen kindly thought of them, but he turned out to be far more decisive than he thought, so Chen Jianlan said: "Buying piglets requires money, and the family can't afford the capital now."

After listening for a long time, Mrs. Li realized that this is a very important opportunity for her daughter's family, not to mention that the Chen family also needs it, so they can't support it. "If you want to raise pigs, your father and I still have some money here. I can borrow some from you first."

Zheng Changhai looked at Chen Xiangwu, but Chen Xiangwu had no expression on his face, but he agreed, "You can borrow it if you want."

"Thank you, Mom and Dad." Chen Jianlan was naturally happy when her parents made faces for her, but she refused, with a thorough analysis, "Since it's used for business, I'm afraid one or two pigs won't be enough."

Chen Chen said: "That's definitely not enough."

"So we can't afford to raise these pigs." Chen Jianlan said, "Even if parents, you and elder brothers are willing to lend us money to buy piglets, we don't have that much food to feed so many pigs."

Everyone is speechless, and this is indeed a reason that cannot be ignored.

"So I still raise chickens." Chen Jianlan said: "The chickens grow fast, and they can be driven out to peck in the fields by themselves. The chicken food is also wheat bran, which is finely chopped and mixed with crushed corn. It needs less food, and Chickens are also cheaper than pigs, so if we borrow some from your parents, that will be enough."

Chen Chen asked, "Auntie, how many chickens are you going to raise?"

"I'm thinking about two hundred or so?" Chen Jianlan said with reason and evidence: "Since you let the whole Pingba Village grow chili peppers, I know how much chili peppers can be harvested per acre of land. I think two hundred chickens are definitely needed."

Chen Xiangwu was stunned for a moment, Li Shi gasped, and Zheng Changhai suddenly turned to look at Chen Jianlan.

Chen Chen looked at Chen Jianlan with admiration, he didn't expect this aunt to have such a plan in her heart.

Although two hundred chickens are not enough, for a rural person, daring to say that number is definitely a group of people with courage.You know, ordinary people raise a dozen or twenty chickens to death, and ordinary people only look like seven or eight chickens. It’s not good to have a single one that is precious, but it is an important property of the farmer’s family.Now Chen Jianlan dares to say that there are two hundred, that is indeed courageous enough.

Chen Jianlan clearly knew who was the most important to ask, "Xiaochen, what do you think of this number?"

Chen Chen smiled, "Not enough."

Chen Jianlan took a light breath.

Chen Chen said: "I think it can be doubled."

Zheng Changhai couldn't stand it anymore, even his voice was trembling, "Is this too much?"

Chen Chen didn't force them, just said: "Then uncle, if you are worried, you can try to raise two hundred chickens first. Anyway, the chickens grow fast. After the first batch of chickens are raised and sold, it is okay to buy chickens." OK."

Zheng Changhai breathed a sigh of relief, "This is a way."

Chen Jianlan glanced at Zheng Changhai and said, "Let's discuss it first."

Chen Chen is very talkative, "We need to discuss it carefully."

After finishing the business, everyone was preoccupied with their own affairs, and there was no desire to chat at all.Just sitting like this, peeling the peanuts on the table, eating slowly bit by bit.

Chen Chen couldn't stand the atmosphere after sitting for a while, and he felt that it was useless for him to stay, so he found a reason to go home.

Before going out, Mrs. Li asked him and Chen Bei to come over for dinner tonight, and Chen Chen agreed.

The relatives who are away from their natal family usually come back after dinner, and those who are far away have to stay at their natal home for one night.So they added Chen Jianlan and Zheng Changhai at night, and there were only six people in total. It was nothing to eat in one pot, and it was still lively.

Chen Bei was not at home, so he probably went to play in the village. On the side of the road where he just came, he could see many children playing in the village.

Chen Chen added two lumps of coal to the coal stove, then added some crushed cinders mixed with water on top, and then covered the coal stove cover, so that it would last for a long time without going out. Although there was no temperature, the coal would not be wasted.

Chen Chen dealt with the fire, then went into the room and lay down.

He lay down until Chen Bei came back from playing and pushed open the door before waking up.

"Why is there so much movement?" Chen Chen's voice was still hoarse just after waking up.

Chen Bei, who was completely unprepared, was startled by the sudden voice. He followed the voice and heaved a sigh of relief when he saw his brother lying on the bed. "Brother, you are at home. You scared me."

Chen Chen raised his wrist to look at the time, and found that it was already 02:30 in the afternoon, "At home, what are you doing?"

Chen Bei fumbled in the dark space of the headboard of his bed, "I'll get something."

Chen Chen responded.

At this point, he didn't sleep anymore and got up to get dressed.It's really cold when people come out of the quilt in winter.

Chen Bei took out his things and was about to leave, "Brother, I'm going to play first."

Chen Chen reminded him, "I'll have dinner with grandma and the others at night, remember to go there early."

"Okay." Chen Bei answered and left.

Chen Chen looked at the door frame that had already slipped out of the room, and felt that this kid had a lot of fun.

Get dressed and come out and watch the fire first.

The inside of the coal stove had burned to the layer of cinders, and the whole coal stove began to glow red.Chen Chen inserted it with tongs, then added some cinders mixed with water, and continued to cover the coal stove.

Wash your face and go out.

Chen Jianlan and the others have already disbanded. When Chen Chen arrived, Mrs. Li was scooping rice out of the rice vat and preparing to soak it.

"Auntie and them?"

"I'm going to your grandfather's side." Li Shi replied.

Chen Chen immediately understood.

Going back to her mother's house to visit relatives, it's not true that there is only one relative in the mother's house, and the relatives who should go next to her also have to go.

"Grandma, is it too early to make dinner?"

"I'll soak the rice first, and then cook it later."

"Row."
