rebirth of cataclysm

"Xiaochen, how are you? Does it hurt? Grandma was too harsh." Hu Yandie rummaged through the cabinets and found some safflower oil. She didn't have a cotton swab, so she could only pour it on her hand and wipe it gently with Hu Mingchen.

"Grandma has always been so cruel. She beats my brother even if she doesn't help. I don't like her." Hu Yujiao stood nearby and said sadly.

"It's okay. I don't feel any pain. I'll be fine in a day or two. Don't blame her. Speaking of which, I have to thank her." It's impossible that Hu Mingchen's face really doesn't hurt, but he doesn't want his sister and sister to

The element of grudge is left in the young mind.

No matter what, she is grandma after all, and this will never change no matter what.

"Thank her? Why do you have to thank her after I beat you? It doesn't make sense." Hu Yandie pouted.

"It's very simple. If she hadn't hit me twice, it would be really hard to get the thirty-six yuan." Hu Mingchen patted his wallet containing the thirty-six yuan and forced a smile.

"But...for thirty-six yuan, your face is swollen and the corners of your mouth are cracked. Grandma didn't beat you just to get people to give you money." Wiping the wounds on Hu Mingchen's face, Hu Yandie

Still heartbroken.

"If you can't get the money, you will suffer in vain." Hu Yujiao said.

"Haha, don't you get it? With the example of the Luo family in front, we can still collect money when others come to worship the sacred tree later." Hu Mingchen endured the pain and grinned.

"Wow, brother, are you planning to collect other people's money? You were beaten like this just today." Hu Yujiao said in surprise.

"What's the matter? If you can still receive money, it doesn't matter if you call again." Hu Mingchen is now like a villain who has fallen in the eyes of money. He will do anything for money.

"Stop thinking like that, why don't I give you the rest of the money? Don't make any mistakes again. This time you have completely offended grandma, and...if dad

Mom came home and heard that you rely on the sacred tree to collect money. Maybe you will have to get a beating. You have thirty-six yuan now, I will give you another forty yuan, it should be about the same, right?" Hu Yandie hurriedly said

said.

"That's enough, that's enough. Sister, you are so kind. Don't worry, I will make money. As soon as I make money, I will return your money to you as soon as possible." Hu Yandie's promise and support,

Hu Mingchen was very happy that his heart could finally fall into place.

To be honest, if Hu Yandie continues to disagree, Hu Mingchen can only stop others from worshiping the tree again.

"That's not Xiaojiao and I's money. It was left by my mother for the three of us as living expenses. A dozen yuan of it originally belonged to you. I don't expect you to pay back the money. As long as you don't cause trouble again, the remaining few dollars will be fine."

One yuan should be barely enough for us to last for a while." Hu Yandie handed the forty yuan to Hu Mingchen and said holding on to the remaining few yuan.

As a sister, Hu Yandie also had to leave a way out, so she didn’t leave all of her money to Hu Mingchen. It’s better to say that she believed Hu Mingchen would really make money than she spent 40 yuan to buy Hu Mingchen’s money.

Make trouble and get beaten.

Hu Yandie usually complained about Hu Mingchen, but they were siblings after all. What's more, Hu Mingchen's recent changes really made her feel satisfied and moved.

Even though the remaining few dollars would make her life more difficult in the future, compared to Hu Mingchen's beating, she felt it was worth it.

"Sister, don't worry, our family's life will not be so difficult anymore. Please believe me, I will definitely make money and give you, Xiaojiao, and your parents a good life. I am determined."

Hu Mingchen patted his chest and promised.

Hu Mingchen's simple treatment was completed, and the Luo family also finished their worship ceremony and went back.

Hu Jianqiang went to Qingshui River to have a drink and help others, and came back on time at noon.

"Xiaochen, what's wrong with you? Why is your face so swollen? Who hit you?" Hu Jianqiang was shocked when he saw Hu Mingchen.

Hu Jianqiang thought Hu Mingchen was beaten by someone else. Looking at his posture, as long as he knew who it was, he would immediately come to his door to argue and settle the score.

"Third uncle, it was grandma who beat me." Hu Yujiao answered unconvinced first.

"Ah? Why did your grandma hit you? What happened?" I heard that it was the work of his mother Zhong Ying, which was beyond Hu Jianqiang's expectation.

"Actually, it's nothing. Grandma has no choice. My face will be better in a day or two. It's not a big problem. Third uncle, are you done? Can we go to the street?" Hu Mingchen didn't take it as a big deal and still

In turn, he helped Zhong Ying soothe his cheeks.

"No, why did your grandma beat you so hard?" Hu Jianqiang was still quite curious and confused about this question.

"Third uncle, let me tell you, the thing is like this, doesn't Xiaochen want money for business..." Hu Yandie was also dissatisfied with Zhong Ying's behavior, so she simply told the whole story.

.

After listening to Hu Yandie's story, Hu Jianqiang really didn't know how to evaluate it.

Is it wrong to talk about mother Zhong Ying? However, Hu Mingchen blocked others and asked for money to worship the sacred tree. This has never happened before.

Did her mother Zhong Ying do the right thing? That's hard to say. After all, Hu Mingchen is also his own grandson, isn't he? Besides, his parents are not at home, so it's hard to justify beating him like this.

"Okay, Third Uncle, this is not a big deal. You have to pay something for what you get. I don't mind. After applying the medicine, I feel much better. Let's go to the street quickly. I may still have time to go to the street after finishing the work.

I'm going to the city to purchase goods." In contrast, Hu Mingchen felt that purchasing goods and doing business was his top priority.

"You are going to the city today? Who are you going with?" Hu Jianqiang didn't expect Hu Mingchen to be so impatient.

Of course Hu Mingchen was impatient. He was waiting for no time and was seizing the day.

The sooner you earn money, the sooner you can pay off the debts owed to others. The sooner you earn money, the sooner the family situation can be improved. What's more, I don't know what the situation is with my father Hu Jianjun yet.

If you need more money for treatment in the future, you have to be able to spend it.

No matter what the situation is, in a word, Hu Mingchen is particularly eager to make money now and must make money.

"Isn't Sanniang taking the shuttle bus to the city? I can take the bus with her."

"She took the early morning bus today, and she probably hasn't returned from the city yet. Unless you go again tomorrow, but even if you take her car, she won't have time to accompany you to buy goods. She has to sell tickets. In addition,

Do you know where the wholesale market is? Do you know the market conditions? What if you are cheated? You are so young. If you want to go today, you have to stay in the city for one night." Hu Jianqiang frowned.

Of course Hu Mingchen knew where the wholesale market in the city was, but others didn't know that he knew.

"Yes, Xiaochen, I heard that there are many rules and bad people in the city, and you haven't been to the city much. I think you should not go. What if you go and can't come back?" Hu Yandie

He said worriedly.

"I can't wait for tomorrow. Let's go now and come back by train in the evening. The city is not as scary as you said, and it's not Lion Rock. I'm not going to steal or rob. It's okay. If I don't know the place, I will ask

As for the police, can the police also be bad people?" In order not to worry his sister, Hu Mingchen could only comfort her in this way.

There is a train station in Duge Township, but this small station is not on the street of Duge Township. Instead, it is a two-hour walk from the township government. It is located in Yakou Village, halfway up the mountain above Hu Mingchen’s house. Since the station is still in Duge Township,

Within the territory of Ge Township, the station name is also called Duge Station. It takes more than an hour to walk back to Hu Mingchen's home from Duge Railway Station, no matter how fast it is.

"Forget it... let me go with you. I'm really worried about a person like you... If anything goes wrong, how will you explain it to your parents when they come back?

?" Hu Jianqiang thought for a while, and decided to go there alone.

"Uncle...if you go, you will have to pay for the round trip." Hu Mingchen's current capital is very small. If he pays the shuttle bus fee, the principal that can be purchased will be reduced even more.

"Don't worry, kid, you don't have to pay for my travel expenses. I will find a way myself."

"Uncle Third, I didn't mean that. I...you don't have much money now. It's fine for me to go alone. Why spend more money?" Hu Mingchen said awkwardly.

"No matter how little money I have, I won't be able to find more than ten yuan in tolls. Okay, let's do it like this. I'll go to the street with you first."

After Hu Jianqiang gave Hu Yandie and Hu Yujiao some instructions, he accompanied Hu Mingchen and rushed to the street.

When they arrived at the school, Hu Jianqiang and Hu Mingchen went to reserve the side room.

After talking, Hu Jianqiang actually got to know the family somewhat. The man's surname was Zheng and the woman's surname was Zhang. With an adult coming forward, Hu Mingchen was able to successfully rent the side room.

After settling the rent issue, the uncle and nephew went to the intersection where the shuttle bus was parked on the street to prepare for a ride to the city.

Currently, there are only four shuttle buses operating in Duge Township. Two buses go to the county and make two round trips a day. Two buses go to the city and only make two round trips a day.

Go here in the morning and come back at noon, or go here in the afternoon and come back from the city the next morning.

Hu Jianqiang borrowed 20 yuan from a relative who owned a shop on the street, and went to catch a shuttle bus with Hu Mingchen.

Ten minutes after getting on the bus, the shuttle started its journey.

At this time, the roads from Duge Township to the city or the county are very difficult to walk. Using the road dug by people who violated the planned business policy can save a lot of detours, but this road is completely muddy.

The road is full of potholes and bumpy, and the people sitting inside are like riding a roller coaster, with ups and downs.

It's okay for those who don't get motion sickness. If you do get motion sickness, you'll probably be vomiting and your whole body will be paralyzed before you finish walking the dirt road from Duge Township to Fangwo Village.
