selling chili peppers in chronology

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

The cock crows early in the countryside, and the villagers get dressed and get up one after another.

When the farming season is busy, I carry farm tools to the field, and when the farming season is slack, I carry a chopping knife to the mountains to cut firewood, fertilize and prepare the land. In short, as long as there is work in my eyes, there is definitely work to do.

Chen Bei and Zhou Ping'an had to walk to the town to study, and they also got up early.

After harvesting the sorghum and soybeans, the time is not so rushed, and the work in hand is not so tedious. According to the habits of rural people, they should stop eating breakfast.

But the Chen family is an exception.

It takes three hours to go back and forth to the town. Chen Beizhou didn't go home to eat lunch in Ping An, and if he didn't eat breakfast, his family would feel distressed.In addition, Chen Chen used to eat three meals a day, and he was not used to it in the first few days, but because it was like this all year round, he didn't dare to mention it rashly. Now that he finally caught the autumn harvest for breakfast, he definitely couldn't Letting go of this opportunity, with a little push, the whole family agreed.

Not only did Liu Dongxue make some simple breakfast, but he also prepared lunch for Chen Bei and Zhou Pingan. The meal was served and put into an enamel jar, then the lid was put on and the whole enamel jar was tied tightly with a cloth, and it was put in the schoolbag like this It won't overturn even if you carry it on your back.

When the school is eating at noon, the cloth is removed, and then I go to the school cafeteria to borrow some hot water and put the enamel jar in it to scald it, so that the food can have some temperature.

It's definitely not as delicious as the freshly fried hot dishes and hot rice, but it's also better than the ones in the school cafeteria.

The meals at school contain less oil and salt than those at home.

After a hasty breakfast, Chen Beizhou went to school safely; Liu Dongxue cleaned up the dishes; Chen Jianye didn't talk about the pepper planting that Chen Chen mentioned yesterday, and went directly to the field; I went up the mountain to cut firewood.

Since the bamboo leaf green last time, Chen Chen didn't dare to go up the mountain for several days, and he continued to set off after recovering.He learned how to behave. According to the experience taught by Du Xingwei and his family members, he would bring a stick every time to scare the snake out of the grass. After that, he never encountered such a dangerous thing again.

After chopping firewood, the sun has come out completely, and the temperature has begun to rise. After washing, Chen Chen went to pick up the chili seeds soaked in Lingquan.

Recently, it is the season of autumn planting peppers. Regardless of whether Chen Jianye agrees to use six acres of land to grow peppers, the seeds have to be prepared. Anyway, this time, we can only plant a lot more than before.

Chen Chen handed the chili seeds to Liu Dongxue who had just returned from fetching water and was about to go out with the cabbage seeds.

"Aunt Liu, if you want to grow peppers, sow the seeds."

Liu Dongxue was puzzled, "Is it different?"

"These are the seeds I got from the batch of chili peppers that I made badly earlier. The chili peppers have grown well, and they should grow well again this time."

It is important to save the seeds, and we must choose the best fruits to save the seeds, so that the things that are planted later have a higher probability of growing well.This is the empirical method summed up by farmers based on years of exploration.

As soon as Liu Dongxue heard Chen Chen's words, he took the chili seeds over, "Those chilis are indeed growing well, and they taste delicious. I'll keep those seeds first, and I won't be able to sow seeds until tomorrow or two days later."

Chen Chen asked: "Scattering cabbage seeds today?"

Liu Dongxue replied, "Yes."

Chen Chen said: "Let me go together, I can help a little bit."

"No need." Liu Dongxue said hastily, "The ground is almost hoeed. I'll go and scatter the seeds. I can finish it in the morning without your help."

Chen Chen's farm work is not as good as Chen Jianye's and Liu Dongxue's, so he didn't insist any more after hearing the words, "Well, I'll make lunch according to the time, and you can eat it when you come back."

Liu Dongxue smiled kindly, "Okay."

After Liu Dongxue went to the field, Chen Chen went to look at the peppers in the yard and in the flowerpots, and watered some that needed watering, without adding the spirit spring.

These seeds were also soaked in Lingquan at the beginning, and the amount of Lingquan should be relatively large in the future, so he has to save them and can no longer use them for watering vegetables.

While serving the peppers, Chen Chen remembered what he told Chen Qian yesterday.Chen Qian hasn't delivered the chili seeds yet, so it seems that things are not going well.

But he had expected it long ago, so he was not in a hurry.

Just thinking about it, Chen Qian's voice came from outside, "Fourth brother, are you at home?"

Chen Chen raised his eyes and replied, "Yes."

Chen Qian came in from the outside, scanned left and right, and asked, "Aren't third uncle and aunt at home?"

"They went to the field." Chen Chen asked, "Did you have something to do with them?"

Chen Qian's face was not very cheerful, "I'm not looking for them, I'm looking for you, brother four."

Chen Chen's expression remained unchanged, "What's the matter?"

"As for the matter we discussed yesterday, I brought it up to my parents after I went back yesterday, but guess what, they all disagreed." Chen Qian felt upset when he thought of what happened later, and complained: "After I figure it out Only then did I realize that they didn't believe me at all, and thought that I was idle and didn't do business all day long, and now they are still thinking about marrying me, which is simply to make things difficult for me on purpose."

Chen Chen was slightly taken aback, "About kiss?"

There was a feeling of lovelessness in Chen Qian's voice, "Yeah. Speaking of dear, although the boys in the village at my age are talking about it, our family is different from them. Don't say anything else, fourth brother Aren't you married, and you don't know why my parents are so anxious."

Chen Chen:"……"

He remembered that this place is different from later generations. Rural people should get married when they are eighteen or nine years old.

Chen Chen suddenly felt a panic that he would be forced to marry, after all, he didn't study now, and he was indeed older than Chen Qian!

but……

Chen Jianye loves the child so much, if he didn't want to, he probably wouldn't force him, right?

In what year was the new marriage law established?Is it released at this time?

Chen Chen decided to look into this when he went back to the county. Recently, some people in the village kept mentioning that he was not going to study now and wanted to introduce him to someone. When the leader heard it, he felt that it was time to say it, so he could have a valid reason to shirk it, right?After all, Chen Qian, who was younger than him, did not escape the forced marriage from his own mother.

Right now, Chen Chen frowned and asked, "Then what are you going to do?"

"I don't want to get married at all now, I just want to make money." Chen Qian's goal is very clear, "I'm going to have a hard time living, why don't I ask other girls to follow me to suffer hardships."

Chen Chen glanced at him appreciatively, "It's right to have such an idea. At the age of teens and 20s, no matter what kind of marriage to get married, it is only serious to find ways to earn money and live a good life."

Chen Qian, who hit a wall when he went back yesterday, finally heard a sentence that made him happy, and he regained his strength, "Fourth brother, you still understand me!"

Chen Chen smiled, "Because I think so too."

Chen Qian said: "Then we have to find a way to convince them."

Chen Chen asked: "What do you want to do?"

Chen Qiandao: "To be honest, fourth brother, I came here to find you because I want you to persuade my parents."

Chen Chen was taken aback, "How can I persuade you?"

"Just tell them the truth." Chen Qiandao: "My dad actually doesn't believe me. He thinks that I'm wasting time doing other things besides farming. Anyway, I knocked me down with one shot. Like yesterday I went back and said In addition to the situation of selling bad peppers, they didn’t believe it was true, and felt that I deliberately exaggerated the matter just to coax them into growing peppers.”

Chen Chen: "..." capitalized miserable.

Chen Qian felt concerned, "Since they don't believe it, I'll find someone who can convince them to tell them about it. Then I can't still say that I'm lying to them."

Chen Chen understood: "So you came to see me?"

Chen Qian nodded, "Fourth brother, you are the first high school student in our family. You have been good since you were young. My dad thinks you are promising. He will believe what you say."

Chen Chen sighed: In the eyes of people of this age, a person who can read is basically a decathlon.

But it's no problem to help Chen Qian talk about it. If you plant a piece of land, you can earn a lot of money!

"Success." Chen Chen directly agreed, and asked, "Is Second Uncle at home right now?"

Chen Qian replied: "He's gone to the field, fourth brother, look around at noon or later in the evening, they must be here."

Chen Chen: "Yes."

The happy Chen Qian didn't know that his father who went to the field was talking about it with his third uncle right now.
