"And you!"
Hu Li pointed to her two sons and said, "Anyway, there is no work at Ji Feo during the Chinese New Year period. Starting from tomorrow, you will also go to the market to set up stalls."
Chen Hong and Chen Ping's mouths turned into grins.
"Mom, what are we selling? The cloth shoes and tiger-head shoes made by Yuliangu are really good. You made them..."
"What's wrong with what mom made? Haven't you always worn shoes made by mom since you were a child? Oh, as you grow up, your wings have become stronger. But you don't like the shoes made by your mom because they don't look good? Just make them yourself if they don't look good."
The two of them dared not speak.
At this time Chen Jinzhu left and returned.
Hu Li glared at him: "What did the old lady say?"
Chen Jinzhu shook his head.
"Don't agree?"
"I did not say."
Hu Li asked him to go to the old lady to object to the construction of a side house on the west wall and the south. He walked around the main room and tried several times, but finally gave up.
"Chen Jinzhu, you want to rebel!"
"Hu Li, the carpenter's wife and others all know about this. It's the old lady who made the decision. The side house won't be built after the new year. Doesn't this cut off everyone's financial path? At that time, my mother and Yulian didn't talk. Human spittle can drown us. I am also a member of the village committee after all. If I do this, the next village committee will appoint me without me. Are you happy?"
Of course Hu Li was not happy. All she could show off in front of her family was that Chen Jinzhu was a member of the Chenjia Village Committee. If she really wanted to do something that ruined people's wealth, as a rural woman, she knew very well that the carpenter's wife What a group of people can do, but once Chen Jinzhu loses his position as a village committee member, it will be more of a loss than a gain.
"He did it on purpose, that little brat did it on purpose!"
Hu Li said angrily. She felt that the reason why the carpenter's wife and others arrived so timely was because Lin Yue was behind it. In this way, the old lady made a decision and agreed to the factory director Chang to build a house, with them as witnesses, her son The daughter-in-law can only take this path by pinching her nose.
Chen Jinzhu, Chen Ping, and Chen Hong all thought that she was a little bit demented. The factory director Chang came to Chenjia Village to investigate the situation. The carpenter's wife gathered people who were good at handicrafts to show him the strength of the villagers. Pretty normal behavior? How come it was planned when it came to her mouth?
…
The Spring Festival passed in a blink of an eye.
Chen Jinzhu didn’t know how other people’s New Year’s Eve dinner was eaten. Anyway, they ate separately. Fortunately, no villagers came to visit. If anyone saw it, he would have to poke his bones and scold him to death. He lives under the same roof as my mother. Next, four members of their family are eating New Year's Eve dinner together, and three members are eating together there. Are these still family members? Since we are celebrating the festival under the same roof, strangers who are not related by blood will gather together to have a lively meal.
All in all, this year passed awkwardly.
It is worth mentioning that what people discussed most during the Chinese New Year was not how much money they made from Jifei this year or how to arrange their work and life next year, but that Chen Yulian and her son were lucky enough to become the deputy director of a carpet factory in the provincial capital.
Because Lin Yue made Chen Jinshui sick, Chen Yulian was ostracized and isolated by the villagers intentionally or unintentionally. Although Chen Jianghe did not express his opinion on this matter, he did not say anything, and no one knew what he was thinking, so they could only With the intention of seeking good luck and avoiding evil, he had little contact with Chen Yulian, so as not to be recorded in the notebook and give them little shoes to wear in the future.
Now that the news came out that the carpet factory was going to set up a cooperation point in Chenjiacun, the villagers, especially the women who thought they were good at sewing, started talking to Chen Yulian in different ways, hoping to bring her along to make money.
Yes, according to the standards given by Director Chang, if you work eight hours a day, you can earn 14 to 5 yuan a month. It may not seem like much, but it is more stable and lasting, and does not delay cooking, washing, and working in the fields. In other words, you are very free in terms of time. You can do more and get more money when you are free, and you can do less and get less money when you are busy. Unlike Chen Jianghe’s place, you can become fat one day and tighten your belt tomorrow.
Everyone's idea was that if there was work at Chen Jianghe's side, they would work with Chen Jianghe, and if there was no work at Chen Jianghe's side, they would sew carpets at home. As a result, Chen Yulian, who had been neglected a few years ago, became a favorite in the eyes of the villagers. cake.
…
It's spring time in March.
The mayor's house.
Chen Jinshui tore off a piece of steamed bun and put it in his mouth, looked at Chen Jianghe and said, "Have you heard about the Zhuzhu family?"
"heard."
Chen Jianghe lowered his head and answered, just picking up the food, showing some indifference to this matter.
"Eat these eggs, these eggs were fried by Qiao Gu."
Chen Jinshui pushed the plate of scrambled eggs in front of him.
Chen Jianghe didn't pick it up and still only ate the plate of vegetables in front of him.
The reason for his indifference is not that he has no interest in Chen Yulian's family affairs, but that he has no interest in Chen Jinshui, because he has been very miserable these days.
He is alienated from Luo Yuzhu, and Luo Yuzhu is also indifferent to him. The reason why the relationship between the two people has reached the point where they cannot become lovers is because of his adoptive father Chen Jinshui.
"After dinner, you go to Chen Yulian's house to check on the situation."
"Why?"
Chen Jianghe stopped picking up the food and was a little surprised by Chen Jinshui's decision to not let him get close to Chen Yulian? Why do you want him to visit Chen's house now?
"I want to know how many people in our village work at her place."
"Uncle...you can go by yourself."
"Hey, I asked you to go because I want you to learn from the cooperation model between the carpet factory and Chen Yulian, and see if you can find some work for the men in our village."
That's what he said, but Chen Jinshui knew very well that the purpose of letting Chen Jianghe do this was to find a job if he had no work, and to make a smooth transition to the engagement with Qiao Gu, so as to prevent his son from running away with Luo Yuzhu.
…
It has been two months since the Spring Festival.
The side rooms have been repaired, with two rooms on the south side and three rooms on the west side, totaling five rooms. Shelves are placed on both sides, and a pony is made in the middle to sit on, so that the women can stitch and sew carpets.
Lin Yue calculated it and found that it would not be a problem to accommodate more than twenty people if it was crowded.
"Phone, this is a phone."
"Even if people from the provincial capital are capable, they can still bring this to their families."
"I haven't called yet."
"How about giving it a try?"
"What kind of beating? Can you afford to pay for it if it's damaged?"
"Okay, if anyone has an emergency in the future, they don't have to ask the mayor."
"..."
In the south room, a group of women gathered around the landline phone with envy and endless discussion.
The whole Chenjia Village has a telephone in the village committee, which conveys an instruction. Anyone who has an emergency can rely on it. No one expected that Director Chang actually got through the relationship with the telecommunications department and got a phone for Chen Yulian's family. .
But thinking about it carefully, Director Chang is right. Chenjiacun is close to the train station, making it convenient for people to deliver goods. It can also radiate to the entire Yiwu from here. The factory is not willing to recruit workers here. After all, taxation, management , the industrial and commercial department has a lot of troubles, it is better to outsource the work to Chen Yulian and let her find someone to sew the carpet. In this case, it is necessary to install a phone to keep in touch with the factory.
Little did they know that this was actually a deal reached between Lin Yue and Chang Xiyun. This model also has a novel word - outsourcing.
The reason why he does these things is to keep Chen Yulian busy. Chen Jinshui has been wearing small shoes for several months, and Hu Li is making things difficult for her. There is an old lady above and a son below to raise. Reality will force her to change her mind. At this time, if Chang Xiyun is asked to come forward for an interview and cooperation, Chen Yulian, who has learned from the painful experience, will no longer focus on him. She will watch him every day, prevent him from running around, and study and do homework at home.
Moreover, it would be best for her to deal with the humiliation given by Lin Yutang herself.
"Aunt Yulian, Aunt Yulian..."
There was a call from someone outside the door.
Lin Yue walked out and took a look and found that it was Chen Jianghe.
"Brother Chicken Feather."
"Lin Yue, where is your mother?"
Chen Jianghe walked into the yard with a bag of apples in his hand.
Lin Yue said: "She went to the county to buy things."
"Oh." Chen Jianghe handed him the fruit and looked at the newly built side house: "It's pretty good."
"Well, Sanlitang's construction team is very famous in our county."
Chen Jianghe said: "I'm not talking about the house, I'm talking about you. I heard... that you gave the idea to Factory Director Chang from the provincial capital? It's amazing, it's amazing."
Lin Yue said: "Isn't this all inspired by Brother Ji Feo? When the villagers were doing mops, the cooperation model between you and Sister Yuzhu was similar to this."
Chen Jianghe thought for a while, don't say it, it's true.
Luo Yuzhu provided raw materials to the people of Chenjiacun, who processed them into mops, and then Luo Yuzhu and Feng Yan sold them on the market. Chen Yulian just replaced Luo Yuzhu with a carpet factory.
"What do you call this? By the way, learn it and apply it!"
Lin Yue smiled slightly, thinking it was time to give Chen Jinshui and Chen Jianghe and his son some fire.
"By the way, Brother Ji Feo, I heard that you and Sister Yuzhu... you... separated?"
