It's not until five o'clock in the afternoon.

Fujitou Village, in the street.

On the dirt road under the corner of the mountain, a man in his sixties with half-white hair and dark skin was limping, his brows furrowed, and anxiously pacing back and forth on the main road.

The man's cotton shirt was yellow, his trousers were still stained with mud, and there were patches in several places.

Before dawn today, Chen Chunlong rented his family's wagon to make ends meet to his uncle Chen Qingshan.

I thought that the other party was coming to borrow potatoes for Chen Guodong's family.

Later, listening to the people in the village, he learned that his uncle had given the carriage to his eldest grandson Chen Xu, and it was only dawn today that someone saw Chen Xu driving the carriage out of the village!

If he hadn't been taken

by Chen Xu to sell for money, he would have written Chen Chunlong's name upside down! At the beginning of this year, the little piglet he had just raised in his pigsty was not caught by this fool and sold to others for 1 yuan

! For this eldest nephew, in the past 20 years, he Chen Chunlong can be said to have suffered greatly from it!

Since he learned the news that the horse was pulled away by Chen Xu, he couldn't even calm down to do the work in his own field, and he even went to Chen Guodong's house to find people twice, but he still didn't come back in the field.

Seeing that after five o'clock in the afternoon, it was about to get dark, so how could he sit still, and quickly ran to the back of the house, which was the only way for Chen Xu to go home, to block people.

"If Na Ha'er really dares to sell Lao Tzu's horse, Lao Tzu won't fight with him!" Chen

Chunlong paced with a limp in a hurry, cursing and cursing in his mouth, and even made up the picture in his mind that when he saw Chen Xu later, he jumped up fiercely and punched that fool

!

If Chen Xu sold it for him, could he not fight hard?

At this moment, on the road that Chen Chunlong had been staring at, a familiar figure was slowly walking towards this side.

Chen Chunlong fixed his eyes and was slightly stunned.

That was....

Reacting

, Chen Chunlong quickly spread his legs and limped forward.

The woman in the dirt house on the side of the road was coming out with a basin of clothes, looking at the person limping forward, and couldn't help but joke, "Chen Lame, what happened to this, lame legs still run so fast?"

Chen Chunlong scolded, and quickly ran to his carriage.

At this time, Chen Xu in the car also saw the person running towards this side, took the reins, jumped out of the car, led the horse and strode towards the man.

"Second uncle. Coming

to the man, Chen Xu greeted with a smile.

The little fish in the carriage also greeted politely.

Chen Chunlong glanced at Chen Xu lukewarmly, and quickly took the reins from his hand, and checked his old horse to confirm that there were no missing arms and legs, and then he was completely relieved.

"Ancestor bless, Chen Xu's Ha'er didn't sell my horse today.

Chen Chunlong muttered in his heart, looked at the coal stove cauldron on the carriage, and the sack, before taking the horse and continuing to walk in the direction of Vine Head Street.

Although I don't know what this Ha'er went out for, but fortunately he sent his horse back, and the things were delivered to his home, so he quickly brought the horse back.

As for the rent.

Hehe.

Chen Chunlong also did not expect Chen Xu, the smelly boy, to have money.

This Ha'er can't even feed himself, let alone the more than one piece of rent--the idea

in Chen Chunlong's mind has just popped up, and two paper tickets with a face value

of one yuan are now in front of him! In this era, especially in the countryside, a large face value of money such as one yuan is rare

! Chen Chunlong saw two at once, and his eyes were straight!

Chen Chunlong was stunned, and a sense of foreboding immediately appeared in his heart, his face changed suddenly, and he almost blurted out, "Chen Xu, you, you went to rob it?"

How many sins did the original owner make?

How he earns money, it is a person who thinks that he robbed it.

Chen Xu sighed secretly, patiently, and said to Chen Chunlong, "Second uncle, I didn't rob it, it was the money I earned by selling chestnuts in town, this is the rent promised to you, 2 yuan a day."

Chen Xu said, and shoved the money into Chen Chunlong's hand.

If it was someone else, he would give a piece of five.

But the original owner has been a scourge to this second uncle since he was a child, and it doesn't hurt to give more.

Chen Chunlong looked at the money in his hand, and then looked at Chen Xu, only feeling unbelievable, for a long time, before he spoke, "You, will you sell chestnuts?" Yesterday

Chen Qingshan told him that Chen Xu was not stupid, he still didn't believe it, thinking that the other party was confused.

Now looking at his nephew who can communicate with him normally and earn money carefully, does it really feel like that?

Chen Xu said with a smile, "Yes, selling chestnuts earns, and in the future, I will go to the town every day to sell chestnuts, second uncle, your carriage, I will give two yuan a day as usual." When

Chen Chunlong heard Chen Xu's words, he was stunned for half a beat before reacting, he was simply surprised and delighted

! His nephew doesn't seem to be stupid!

And he rents his carriage and pays two yuan a day for rent?

You

know, even if he personally drives on weekdays, pulling grain and things for people, even if he works for a day, the wind and sun help unload and load the goods, at most there is only one piece of five!

And there may be such a money-making job every day.

Now Chen Xu, this kid, only needs him to get out of a carriage, so he will give two

yuan a day! This Chen Chunlong can't refuse at all!

2 yuan a day, 60 yuan a month.

More than a month's salary for a city worker.

In an instant, Chen Chunlong's eyes turned upside down when he looked at his nephew.

There was also a smile on his face, but he was still a little uneasy, and asked Chen Xu, "Then do you make a lot of money, give me two yuan of rent at once, do you still have money to earn?"

In Chen Chunlong's cognition, the average person who earns three or five yuan a day is already topping.

He was also afraid that his eldest nephew would be stupid and give him more rent.

It's really not good, it's worth it to give eight cents a day.

Chen Xu took the reins from Chen Chunlong's hand, led the horse forward, and said to him, "Second uncle, don't worry, I will give you so much rent, it must be more money, in the future, you will manage to feed the horse every day, and you can rent it to me with confidence." When

Chen Chunlong heard Chen Xu say this, he was completely relieved, smiled and nodded, "Okay! In the future, I will also improve its food, and pull dozens of pounds of goods for you every day!"

Saying that, Chen Chunlong couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart.

The ancestor of the Chen family really showed his spirit

! Chen Xu is not stupid, and he will still earn money

! Listening to this tone, at least ten yuan a day is also earned!

The uncle and nephew laughed while talking, and Xiao Yu'er was also carried by Chen Xu on horseback, obediently listening to the second uncle talking to his father.

The woman in the courtyard of the dirt house on the side of the road was simply surprised to see Chen Chunlong talking to Chen Xu with a smile like an old chrysanthemum today.

"Oh, what kind of wind is blowing today, Chen Lame doesn't care about losing the old hen and piglet over the years, and he has a smile with his eldest nephew?" The

woman did not dare to greet Chen Xu, but only dared to joke with Chen Chunlong with a smile.

When Chen Chunlong heard this, he turned his head to look at the woman, "you, wash your clothes well!"

After speaking, he happily followed Chen Xu to Vine Tou Street.
