selling chili peppers in chronology

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

When Chen Jianye came back from the field, Chen Chen brought half a pot of cucumbers to the table. When the father and son sat down to eat, Chen Jianye was still a little surprised. When the delicious cucumbers were in his mouth, Chen Chen calmly asked Liu Dongxue when he passed the door. Even more shocked.

"Xiao Chen, you, you don't object?" Chen Jianye stammered.

"I was thinking about it before." Chen Chen said, "Dad has worked hard all these years, and he doesn't have a confidant around him. Now that he wants to, then I shouldn't stop him."

Chen Jianye is an honest and honest man, his eyes were reddened by Chen Chen's words.

Chen Chen didn't want to talk about what the original body did before, so he changed the subject and asked, "Dad, what day did you discuss with Aunt Liu?"

Chen Jianye hurriedly said, "I haven't discussed it in detail yet, I will ask tomorrow."

Chen Chen nodded, "Okay."

Chen Bei breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't expect his brother to do what he said, he really mentioned this matter, and he agreed right away.

"Brother, how do you make cucumbers? It's spicy and sweet, very fragrant!"

"The chili grown at home is spicy. I added some mashed garlic and made chili oil. There is still some left in the bowl. Afterwards, the vegetables and noodles are delicious." Chen Chen replied.

The chili oil mixed with cucumber is really spicy, and it will be exciting in the mouth after one bite, and then a mouthful of hot potato rice, the mouth can't stand it, and the people who eat it are screaming.

But even so, he didn't even lift his head.

When the food was almost finished, Chen Bei said, "It's delicious, but it's a waste of oil."

He just watched it in the kitchen, and the oil in the oiler has gone down a bit.

In fact, it's not that obvious, only he can see it.

Chen Jianye, who had just broken up the rift with his son, was happy and said, "It's okay, I'll fight after eating."

Chen Bei sighed, "I want money."

Yes, I want money.

When lying on the bed at night, Chen Chen was worried about where he would get the first sum of money.

Even if you want to set up a stall, you have to go to the town or county, and this also requires capital.

But all the money in the family was in Chen Jianye's hands, not to mention that he didn't have much money, even if he had, Chen Chen really couldn't say that.He sorted out Yuanshen's own savings, and it was only 2.35 yuan, which was the fare and living expenses given by Chen Jianye when he was studying in the county, and it was left after Yuanshen ran out.

And as far as Chen Chen knew, the bus from the village to the town costs [-] cents, and to the county costs [-] cents, so these two yuan and [-] cents are really useless.

Are you really going to work in that factory for a few months to save some capital?

***

When cooking the next day, Chen Chen ransacked the box and cabinet, but he didn't find any wine koji at home, so he went to his uncle's house to ask his aunt to borrow some.

Wang Guizhi couldn't help asking: "Xiaochen, do you want to serve wine?"

"I want to make some rice wine." Chen Chen replied.

Wang Guizhi looked at Chen Chen as if he was looking at a prodigal son. The food at home was mixed with coarse grains, but Chen Chen even used rice to cook rice wine? !

Wang Guizhi immediately persuaded: "Xiaochen, rice is a precious thing, don't waste it."

Chen Chen responded with a smile: "I cook a little to make it useful, so I don't want to waste it."

Wang Guizhi was hesitant to say anything, but he didn't want to say more, so he wrapped some wine koji in a newspaper and said that he didn't need to pay it back.

Chen Chen thanked you.

Chen Bei was captured by last night's potato rice with cucumber, so he suggested to eat that again this morning, completely forgetting about the waste of oil he complained about last night.

Chen Chen tried to save trouble, so he didn't refuse, and did it directly.

After lunch, everyone went to their own business. Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one in the kitchen, Chen Chen diluted and soaked the rice with Lingquan. After waiting for four, five, 10 minutes, he put the remaining Lingquan into the pot, and then added some more Water, fire to boil water.

After boiling, put the soaked rice to cook, and pour the rice washing water on the vegetable field.

While steaming the rice, Chen Chen stepped into the kitchen and asked wonderingly: "Brother, didn't you just finish eating? Why is it steaming again? It's still pure rice."

Chen Chen said, "I'll make some rice wine."

Chen Bei asked, "Why make rice wine?"

Except for the Chinese New Year, their family will make some of that stuff, and they don't see it at all at ordinary times!No one is willing to make it like this.

"It's useful." Chen Chen didn't want to explain further, "When will your results come out?"

"A week later." Chen Bei paused, and then asked, "Brother, when will your college entrance examination results come out?"

Chen Chen added two sticks of firewood to the stove, "There is still more than a month, but it doesn't take that long. I know how I did in the exam."

Chen Bei asked cautiously, "Then how did you do in the exam?"

Chen Chen said frankly: "It's not that good, I'm sure I won't be able to get into university."

"Bah, bah, bah!" Chen Bei hastily bawled twice, "The good ones are the bad ones, brother, you will definitely be admitted to university!"

Chen Chen was funny, "When there is no hope, don't expect extravagantly."

Chen Bei: "..."

It was hot in the kitchen in summer, so the two brothers went outside, where the eaves covered a shaded place, where at least it would be cooler when there was wind.

Chen Bei looked at Chen Chen from time to time.

The other party is still that thin, in fact, everyone in the village is like this.It's just that Chen Chen was more shy before, giving people a soft feeling. Chen Bei used to think that his brother's behavior was not good, because he looked easy to be bullied.But looking at it now, it seems to be very different.Obviously the face is still the same face, and the body is still the same body, but the feeling is different, becoming bolder, more confident and imposing.

Various thoughts kept popping up in Chen Bei's mind, all of which were speculations about why his brother suddenly became different.

Finally, he couldn't hold back anymore, "Brother, you seem to be different from before."

Chen Chen's hand shaking the cattail fan paused, and then asked nonchalantly: "Why is it different?"

Chen Bei thought for a while before concluding his statement, "I feel more comfortable than before."

Chen Chen:"……"

This adjective is simply perfect.

Chen Chen then said: "Then it must be because your brother and I have become more handsome."

No matter how smart and precocious Chen Bei was, he was still just a child who had just graduated from primary school, and he really couldn't think of a reason, so he agreed after thinking about it: "It should be."

After all, it does look better now than before.

Temperament is an important plus point of appearance. The appearance of low self-esteem and fragile heart in the past is indeed not as good as that of a confident and calm person.

However, Chen Chen gave a more reasonable explanation just to be on the safe side, "Actually, the main reason is that I was under a lot of pressure to study in the past. I was afraid that I would embarrass my father and grandma if I didn't pass the university entrance exam. I want to do well in the exam even more if I repeat it this year. In the end I didn’t do well in the exam, everything has already been settled, and I have no room to struggle, so I can only accept it, which actually relieves the pressure in my heart.”

Chen Bei opened his lips, not knowing how to reply.

His brother is under pressure, so of course he is, but his grades in school are worse than his brother's, so he is more confident, so he is not as tormented as his brother.

Seeing his embarrassed appearance, Chen Chen reached out and rubbed his head, "Okay, don't think about it, what should I do, I've already thought about it."

The two brothers never had a heart-to-heart talk before, and never had a scene like today's inner analysis. Chen Bei was not used to it in various ways, and now he said in a hurry: "I'll go to the village to play for a while."
