As soon as he entered the house, he called all his relatives affectionately, and then presented them with gifts one by one. What Chen Mo bought were relatively high-end tobacco and alcohol. It was not like going to an ordinary relative's house and getting some ordinary gifts. This is my uncle's house, my mother's younger brother, so I have to do my best. Just one portion of cigarettes and alcohol costs thousands, and Chen Mo also spends it happily. My uncle's family helps my family with a lot of work, like the money I borrowed for school, it was all raised by my grandpa and uncle's family. Coming here to buy a gift is nothing.
Grandpa and grandma were very happy when they saw Chen Mo coming. Not even talking about cooking for Chen Mo, but not letting Chen Mo move, just waiting for it to be cooked and eating.
Chen Mo took out the cigarettes from his pocket and handed them to his grandfather and two uncles one by one, lighting them up for them all.
"Erwazi, why don't you smoke? Do you want one too?" Grandpa asked.
"Grandpa, I don't smoke!" Chen Mo said with a smile.
"Yeah! It's good not to smoke. You can't ruin your body when you are young." The uncle nodded and said, but looking at the way he was puffing away smoke, it was not what he said at all.
What else could Chen Mo do besides curl his lips? His uncle was teasing him, so he could only continue.
Everyone was laughing and chatting, and the meal was ready. It's not like seven big bowls or eight plates, just a few side dishes and noodles with oil, absolutely the taste of hometown.
Youpomian is a very common noodle, and it is also a kind of noodle that Chen Mo likes to eat in his hometown. Boil the hand-made noodles in boiling water and put them into a bowl. Then add chopped green onion, pepper powder, salt and other ingredients and a thick layer of chili noodles, spread them on the surface, and pour hot vegetable oil on them. For the seasoning, heat the oil immediately, blanch the pepper noodles and chili noodles until the bowl is red, and then add an appropriate amount of soy sauce and vinegar.
Noodles that are as wide as one finger, plus some cured meat, tomatoes, eggs, etc., and you have a bowl of prosperous noodles. Not only is it smooth and refreshing when you eat it, but it also has the fragrance of vegetable oil. It's spicy and you eat it in one big bite. It's full of onion and sour taste, mixed with the smoothness and elasticity of the noodles. It's so refreshing!
Before it was put in front of me, smelling the aroma of vegetable oil mixed with chopped green onion, etc., I was already salivating.
It’s a crazy meal, with refreshing cold vegetables, fat and lean meat in cured sauce, and golden eggs. Chen Mo didn't even have time to answer his grandfather's questions and just stuffed his mouth full. It was so delicious. Grandpa and the others looked at Chen Mo's eating and smiled happily. Home-cooked meals are the best meals that children like to eat.
After the meal, the family sat on the kang and chatted together. Nowadays, the adobe kang in rural areas has also changed a lot. It is no longer the kind of adobe kang that used to be filled with dirt. Instead, it is made of bricks. Finally, there was a trendy fire pit with ceramic tiles on the outside and blankets on it. There was a small table in the middle of the heat pit. Everyone gathered around the table for two days to enjoy themselves. It was very comfortable.
But the weather is almost April now, so of course there is no need to burn the heated kang.
"Erwazi, how did you feel after meeting that girl today?" My aunt asked Chen Mo with a smile after everyone chatted for a while.
Chen Mo smiled. His aunt had good intentions in introducing him to the person, so he could only follow the words: "We talked for a while when we met, but the other person thought my family was poor, so we stopped talking."
"What's going on?" My aunt suddenly had some questions, and then everyone in the family looked at her and asked her to explain.
It turned out that a few days ago, after his father Chen Jianguo took the money and paid back all the money he owed to his two uncles, everyone knew that Chen Jianguo started to have some money in his family. And I heard Chen Mo's mother say that since the second baby came back, she was planning to develop in the village, and she also made some money outside, renovated her home, and other things.
The two uncles and grandpa were also happy to hear that their nephew could make a difference, and they were also very happy. However, when she went to her uncle's house to pay back the money, her mother asked her uncle to introduce Chen Mo to a partner, so Chen Mo went on a blind date.
Wang Ling's family has a pretty good relationship with her brother-in-law's family, so after her child Wang Ling came back, her brother-in-law behaved quite honestly and wasn't that fancy. She just liked to dress up, so she didn't think too much about it. Girls Well, it’s her nature to love dressing up, so she got in touch with Wang Ling’s family and introduced her to Chen Mo.
When Chen Mo heard this, he realized that the root of this problem was still in his mother Fu Huili. He suddenly felt like ten thousand alpacas had run past. He was extremely depressed, but he still had no choice but to knock out his teeth and swallow it in his stomach. The baby I feel bitter, but the baby won’t say it!
I can no longer live at home, so I must find a way to keep myself busy and out of my mother's sight. Otherwise, my mother will keep looking for things for me when she sees me sitting at home with nothing to do all day long.
Chen Mo decided that after returning home, he would think carefully about how to move out of his home. Then you can live a happy life, ensuring that your ears will not be spoiled by nagging. In addition, you should not be too far away from home. Part of the reason for coming back is to be filial to your parents. If you are too far away from home, it will violate your original intention.
I stayed at my grandpa's house for a long time before leaving. I rode my motorcycle back home, but Qinggang Village is not far from Chenjia Village, and it only takes a few dozen minutes to get home by bike.
The entire house at home has been renovated, and after a few days of solidification, all the floor tiles are ready for removal without any problems. The walls and other items are all completely dry, and a new stove has been installed in the kitchen. Chen Ming's workers have been working in the countryside for a long time. There is a man who is very good at building stoves. He directly tidied up the kitchen at home. Not only the stove, but also the kitchen cabinets and so on were all made of ceramic tiles. Chen Mo's mother was very happy.
Now the kitchen is ready for use, and it is still good. The clean and bright kitchen is much better than the old and dark one before.
After Chen Mo returned home, Chen Ming was waiting at home.
While Chen Mo was chatting with his grandfather, Chen Ming made a phone call.
The main reason for waiting for him was that all the renovation work had been completed and all that was left was inspection. Chen Ming and Chen Mo just wanted to collect the final payment for this project, and they also wanted to discuss with Chen Mo about the construction of the old house.
After Chen Mo settled the final payment for the decoration, he heard Chen Ming say: "Erwazi, the project here at your house is over. You can see how the project on the old house will start."
After the old house was demolished, all the remaining garbage and so on had been cleaned up. Chen Ming has almost completed all other projects now, and the workers are freed up, so he wants to ask Chen Mo if the old house can start construction, because once the construction starts, the down payment must be paid.
"Uncle Ming, is there any problem with the simultaneous construction of houses and roads in the old house?" Chen Mo asked.
"It definitely didn't work a few days ago, but in the past few days, my other projects have been completed, so I can pull everything in, and there are no problems with the construction at the same time." Chen Ming said.
"That's good. You can start construction tomorrow. I'll just go take a look." Chen Mo said.
"Okay!" Chen Ming said, without saying anything else, he took out the contract and handed it to Chen Mo.
After looking at it, I saw that they were all regular contracts, and there was nothing unreasonable about them. So the two of them signed and pledged all the contracts for house construction and road construction.
He returned to his house, took out 200,000 yuan, and then went to the main room and handed it to Chen Ming as a down payment.
