In mid-June, the backyard workshop, paper money shop, and funeral team were all successfully handed over and put into operation. After celebrating the birthdays of Chu Sanshu and Chu Xiuxiu in the old house, the young couple and their family moved to the county seat.
On the morning of the moving day, Shen Songjie drove his ox cart from Hexi Village. Chu Ping also followed Chu Yi's instructions to go to the dirt road at the entrance of the village and stopped two ox carts that usually traveled between the town and the village. Money, please come and help us go to the county town together.
Coupled with the original ox carts of Chu Yi's family, four ox carts were parked neatly in front of the courtyard of the Chu family's old house. Such a big movement naturally attracted the attention of the villagers, and neighbors gathered around them.
"Daughter-in-law of the Chu family, are you moving to the county town today?"
Uncle Chu and a few children were sent to the next door in advance. The men were moving in and out carrying packed luggage and bedding. Shen Luzhu was helping to arrange the things. When he saw someone coming around to ask, he smiled. Explain to the aunt.
"Yes, Auntie, we moved there today, but the house and shop are still in our village. If anything happens at home, Auntie has to help me keep an eye on it. There is also the business of the shop, and I will have to ask Auntie in the future. Please take care of me!"
How could the aunt next door not know that the Chu Ping family took care of the affairs of the Chu family's old house, but she was still very happy after hearing Shen Luzhu's words. In this situation, whoever is stupid will be more and more prosperous. The Chu family had a grudge.
"That's natural. Your shop is open, which is convenient for us guys. There is no reason to take care of it. The village will look after your house for you. Don't worry, isn't it? ?」
The other people watching the excitement behind them naturally responded: "Yes, don't worry, wife of the Chu family, we are all watching for you."
"Then I really want to thank you all, folks. When you are not busy in the future, when you come back from the county, we will treat you all to dinner."
When everyone heard this, they just answered in passing and got a meal as promised by the Chu family. They had the nerve to continue standing like this. I don't know who saw Chu Yi who was moving things out and said: "Everyone, stop being idle and lend a hand to help move things!"
A group of people rolled up their sleeves and stepped forward to help, as if they had just woken up from a dream. With the help of the villagers, the moving process went much faster. In a short time, three oxcarts were filled. Chu Yi placed his wife, children and children on his own oxcart, and then Chu Ping and others got on several oxcarts. .
Just as they were about to set off, Qian, Yuan Shuang and others also discussed whether to go to the county town with them: "If there are still seats in the car, we will take the girls with us."
Jiang Quan looked at his sister, who was not taking Xiaobao with her today, and advised her, "Sister, moving can only be done with a few of us guys, so don't bother with it."
Shen Luzhu also said: "That's right, we have enough manpower, cousin. You and Yuan Shuang still have to take care of the two babies at home, so don't bother."
Unexpectedly, Mr. Qian waved his hand and said, "Their grown men are just helping to move things from the car to the house. When we go back, we'll pack them up the same way. It's not just you and Xiuxiu. We'll follow them." So I can help you clean and put it away."
Jiang Juan also advised: "Yes, cousin, aunt is right. You and Xiu Xiu are so busy no matter how busy you are, you might as well take us with you."
"Chu Ping and the others have already helped a lot. How can I ask my aunt to come with you to do this tidying up work? Besides, the elders and children in the family are all here. Everyone is here." He left with us and won't be able to come back for a while. What should we do at home?" Kanshu La
Seeing that Mrs. Qian was about to come forward to persuade her, Jiang Juan pulled her hand and said, "Auntie, the two children at home are still young after all. You and sister Xiaoshuang can stay at home. I will follow you to help." , I specially left Xiaobao at home today. Now that he is older, he doesn’t need me to stay with him all the time. Auntie, do you think so?"
"Yes, Auntie, we do still need someone to take care of us here at home, so don't worry about it. Once we have everything sorted over there, we'll ask you to stay with me for a few days."
"Okay, then you should be more careful on the road. Don't rush and take your time to clean up these things. It's fine over there.
Take care of yourself! "
Shen Luzhu knew that Mr. Qian was not at ease, so he hurriedly comforted him: "Don't worry, cousin, we will come back and stay when we are not busy. If you are fine, ask your cousin to take you around."
Seeing that his old lady was nagging her endlessly, the cousin hurriedly advised her: "Now that I'm an old lady, hurry up and tell them to leave, otherwise it will delay the rest of the matter. It's not like we'll never see each other again. It won't be long before the grandkids are older." , let’s take our parents with us to see Luzhu and the others.”
Seeing Jiang Juan follow the bullock cart, Qian reluctantly said goodbye to Chu Yi and his group. She had always seen the older children since she was a child, and suddenly left, which always made her feel a little uncomfortable.
The oxcart swayed all the way to Changqing Street in the county seat. Chu Yi had asked people to clean the east and west courtyards a few days ago, and the furniture in the house had been placed. The young couple first settled Uncle Chu and Zhengzheng in the house. After entering the main room, they began to move things into their respective houses one by one.
No matter where you are, it is always human nature to watch the excitement. Neighbors on Changqing Street who were moving in came together one after another. Chu Yi came to the town from time to time to supervise the work, and many people had seen him. , and also knew that it was this family named Chu that became the new owners of the two houses of the Lu family.
"Boss Chu, are you moving here today? Where are these things? Do you need our help?"
The middle-aged man who spoke was Mr. Zhou, who opened a bun shop two shops away. Chu Yi had bought buns from him several times before. Compared with others, it was easier to strike up a conversation with Chu Yi.
Chu Yi nodded towards Boss Zhou, took the package from Shen Luzhu's hand, and picked a lighter one for her: "There are many brothers at home to help with the work, so I won't bother Boss Sun."
Only then did Boss Zhou notice the young woman beside him, and asked with some confusion: "Boss Chu, is this your lady? Why does she look familiar? Have you been to the shop before?"
Before the young couple could recall anything, Aunt Sun, who opened the cloth village next to the Chu family's west courtyard, slapped her hands and said: "Oh, isn't this the little lady who helped the Lu family a lot that day? It seems that she just listened to you that day. I said that I was going to the county town to find a shop to do business, but I didn’t expect that it was you who bought the Lu family’s shop in the end. If it hadn’t been for you that day, how could the Lu family have been able to get the shop back so smoothly? What a coincidence, isn’t it!”
Shen Luzhu smiled sheepishly, secretly complaining that it was indeed a coincidence. It had been so long, how could anyone still remember her, but the Lu family definitely didn't miss her so happily.
"This is my aunt, are you also doing business around here?"
"Well, right next to your house, you see, there is a cloth shop. You two are warm-hearted, I don't know how much better than the Yu family. I will be very happy to be my neighbor in the future. Woolen cloth!"
As he spoke, he mysteriously moved closer to the young couple and whispered, "I'm afraid you don't know yet. The Yu family's grocery store was moved to the opposite side. It was suddenly moved there a few days ago. The day before yesterday It just opened again."
"Moved across the street?"
Shen Luzhu was a little puzzled. These two houses were bought by them last winter. At that time, the government required the Yu family to move out within ten days. She remembered that Chu Yi came back the day he took over the house and said that the Yu family had no house within ten days. After finding a shop that I was satisfied with, I even went to the Yamen to beg for mercy. In the end, it was said that I moved to a shop in the outer city. Only more than half a year later, I moved the shop back again?
Aunt Sun had some troubles with the Yu family earlier, but now she sees that annoying guy has become a neighbor who lowers his head but never raises his head, so naturally she feels unhappy: "Well, it's right across the street, it's really unlucky!"
"Don't be angry, ma'am. We're just across the street. I don't think we'll have much contact with each other in the future. Why should I ruin my good mood over such a trivial matter?"
I don't know if it was because of the relationship with the Yu family that they couldn't deal with, but the more Sun looked at Shen Luzhu, the happier she became. She patted the other person's hand with a smile and said: "You are right. If she dares to come to the door to cause trouble in the future, old woman I will let the dog bite her. But you still have to be careful, the Yu family has always been very narrow-minded. If I find out that it was you who bought the Lu family’s shop in the end, I’m afraid you will hold a grudge.”
"Okay, thank you, auntie
, let’s pay more attention, wait until the house is tidied up, and then we invite the neighbors to our house for a warm meal, the aunt will definitely give it a thumbs up. "
"Chengchengcheng, the old woman is my favorite to join in the fun."
As they were talking, Ding An's voice suddenly came from the side: "When you invite me to Nuanju for dinner, Brother Chu and his younger siblings must not forget to call me when they arrive!"
When Chu Yi saw it was Ding An, he hurriedly greeted him: "Brother Ding, are you not busy today?"
"I just finished my work. I have nothing to do at the moment. I remember you seem to be moving today, so I came over to take a look."
As soon as Jiang Quan came out of the yard, he looked up and bumped into Ding An, who was talking to Chu Yi again. He took two steps forward and said, "Brother Ding, are you here?"
"Jiang Quan, are you here to help your cousin?"
"Well, my parents said that my cousin might have a lot of work here, so they asked me to come and help with the work for a few days. By the way, my sister is here too!"
Hearing this, Ding An smiled and patted Jiang Quan's head: "Let's talk while working."
Regarding the matter between Ding An and his sister, Jiang Quan was the only one in the Jiang family who voted in favor from the very beginning. In his opinion, his sister should be matched with a Ding An who is brave, resourceful and responsible. man.
My sister always said that she was not good enough for Brother Ding, and her parents also said that it was inappropriate for her and the Ding family to be in the same family, but he felt that the two of them were not a good match. Brother Ding made it so clear that his family How can one be so unsure of my sister?
Now that things are so good, my sister is happy, and so is their whole family!
