Back to 90s she just wants to get rich

Chapter 280 279. Let It Be
Two days later, Yan Chen came to Xiang Jin and said that he was going back to the provincial capital, and asked if she would be interested in visiting the provincial capital with him?
Xiang Jin was surprised, "Why do you want to go back all of a sudden?"

Yan Chen said, "Go back and have a look at my grandfather, and take a look at our properties by the way."

Xiang Jin nodded, then shook his head again, "I won't go, just read it, I believe you, I want to catch up with the manuscript, and try to save more manuscripts before the school opens, otherwise it will be inconvenient then, I will go play again after I graduate from high school in the future."

Although Yan Chen felt a little lost in his heart, he could still understand, so he nodded, "That's all right, then, is there anything you need to bring, I'll bring it back for you?"

Xiang Jin thought about it seriously, then shook his head again, "It doesn't seem to be there!"

"That's it!"

"Oh, when are you leaving?"

"tomorrow!"

"Is Uncle Tao coming to pick you up?"

"I'll go back myself!"

"Oh, that's it? If you go back by yourself, it will probably be five or six o'clock in the afternoon, so don't you have to stay in the town tonight?"

"Well, let's go to town later!"

"Then you have to call back when you arrive?"

"Yes, I will!"

"Bon voyage!"

"it is good!"

At around six o'clock in the afternoon the next day, Xiang Jin was picking vegetables in the field and was going back to make dinner later, when suddenly the pager in her pocket rang, and she took it out to see that it was Yan Chenfa here.

So she quickly put down the vegetable basket and asked her grandfather to pick it up. She said that a classmate was looking for her, and she went to Grandma Mo's house to call back.

Her grandfather waved at her, "Go, go, go and do your work, I'm here."

Xiang Jin went to Grandma Mo's house. Grandma Mo and Grandpa Zeng were harvesting vegetables in the yard, "Grandma Mo, may I borrow your phone?"

"Use it, use it," the two old men laughed.

Xiang Jin went into the house and dialed the phone number of Yan Chen's house, and the phone rang twice before being picked up.

"Hey?"

"Yan Chen, it's me, Xiang Jin!"

"I know it is you!"

"When did you get home?"

"Not long after I arrived, I will message you when I arrive."

"Oh, then did your drive go well today?"

"It went well!"

"That's good!"

"Then is your grandfather at home?"

"No, in the army, he said that there is a military exercise recently, he is very busy!"

"Isn't it going to be a long time before you see him again?"

"It's okay, as long as he is in good health, this kind of thing happens too often, and I've already gotten used to it."

"Is Uncle Tao at home?"

"He's in the store and hasn't come back yet."

"There are only you and Aunt Jiang in the house?"

"There are two more guards!"

"Grandma Mo and the others are harvesting vegetables in the yard, do you want to talk to them, and I'll call you?"

"No, I'll call them later."

"Oh, that's fine. You must be tired after a day's driving, so you should rest first. I'll call you again in a few days."

"it is good!"

Just as Xiang Jin was about to put down the phone, Yan Chen called her again, "Oh?"

"Huh? Is there anything else?"

"Don't be too tired to catch up with the manuscript, you still need to pay attention to rest, especially your eyes, look at the green things around you more, be careful of myopia, we are not short of money now, don't have to work so hard!"

The corner of Xiang Jin's mouth curled up, "I know, okay, hang up?"

"it is good!"

Xiang Jin went out to help them, and Grandma Mo asked her with a smile while packing her things, "Would you like to talk to Chen Chen on the phone?"

Xiang Jin was surprised, "Grandma Mo, how do you know?"

Grandma Mo said with a smile, "I'm not sure, but you two children are usually close, and both of you have that pager, and at this time, I reckon Chen Chen should be here too, he If you didn't call us, you should have sent you a message."

Xiang Jin nodded, "Grandma Mo, your guess is really accurate. Yan Chen has indeed arrived. He arrived not long ago. He was afraid that you are busy now, so he said to call you later."

Grandma Mo nodded and smiled, "I know, I know, although the kid doesn't say anything, he is always considerate in his heart. He is afraid of disturbing our work, and afraid that we will rush to answer the phone and fall down, so Every time they call us at night or at noon."

Xiang Jin nodded, "Well, Yan Chen is actually very careful!"

"You think so too?" Grandma Mo's eyes lit up.

Xiang Jin nodded, "Well, I've always felt that way!"

Grandma Mo was even more cheerful.

Xiang Jin helped them put away the dried vegetables, then clapped his hands and said, "Grandma Mo, Grandpa Zeng, then I'll go back?!"

"Ah, ah, good!" Both elders happily responded.

After Xiang Jin left, Grandma Mo kept watching her back. It wasn't until Xiang Jin walked away that Grandma Mo looked back and said, "The more I look at this girl, the more I like her. If you say she is..."

Grandpa Zeng interrupted her immediately, "Stop! I know what you want to say, the two of you are still young, it's too early to say anything at this moment, what kind of character is this Wantou person? It's not that I don't know, don't mess with the two children, it will be embarrassing and they won't even have to be friends."

Grandma Mo nodded, "I know, I know, I just whispered this to you."

Grandpa Zeng said, "Let's let nature take its course, how can we explain what will happen in the future, don't be like our pearl again."

When the two old friends were mentioned, they became sad again, and Grandma Mo's eyes began to burst into tears again. Then she wiped it with the corner of her clothes, nodded, and then the topic was over.

A few days later, Yan Chen called Xiang Jin again, and told her that he had recently inspected the shops of their family, and it turned out that they were all in good operation and the sanitary conditions were also good.

Although it is a hot day, their hot pot restaurant is full of business every day, and there are no empty seats. It will not close until 04:30 in the evening from eleven o'clock in the morning.

And the business of their stewed meat shop is also very good. The four shops, plus the part provided to Han Che and the others, they have to stew about two thousand catties of pork and beef every day, as well as dried tofu and bean curd, potatoes and These vegetarian dishes such as lotus root slices and seaweed, each of their stores has to deliver goods twice a day, once at eight or nine o'clock in the morning, and once at three or four o'clock in the afternoon.

Xiang Jin asked, "With so much bittern, will there be any leftover every day?"

Yan Chen said, "There will be no leftovers, they are sold out at seven or eight o'clock every day."

Xiang Jin nodded at the end of the phone, "That's good, summer is not as easy to preserve as winter, so we'd better freshen it up every day."

"Well, I told them that too!"

"Then have you visited our land? And the houses we bought?" Xiang Jin asked again.

Yan Chen said, "Well, I've been there, I've seen them all, those workers are very serious and responsible in their work, not only some fresh vegetables are planted in the vegetable field, but also some fresh melons and fruits, when they come back, I'll bring you some."

"Wow! I'm still waiting for strawberries."

"Yes! They planted more than an acre of strawberries, as well as that melon and cantaloupe. I'll pick some for you when the time comes."

"Wow, wow, we can actually grow melons and cantaloupe here?" Xiang Jin was a little surprised.

Yan Chen said, "Yes, and a lot of them have been sold out, but this is mainly for the supply troops, and the watermelon is mainly for the hot pot restaurant."

"Hot pot restaurant? How much watermelon can the hot pot restaurant use?" I heard that they planted more than three acres of watermelon.

Yan Chen said, "Hot pot restaurants don't use much watermelons, only a dozen or twenty a day, but Uncle Tao set up a stall outside the hot pot restaurant, selling watermelons there, and some customers are eating them. After the hot pot, I bought a watermelon from us and went back."

Xiang Jin laughed loudly, "Oh, I found that Uncle Tao is very economical, he is selling in bundles."

Yan Chen said, "Uncle Tao is still very smart. I heard that our watermelons can be sold for more than 100 every day if they are placed outside like that."

"So much?" Xiang Jin asked in surprise.

Yan Chen said, "Our watermelon has thin skin, and it is the kind of crispy melon with a lot of water. Many people like to come to our house to buy watermelon."

"Oh, so, how big is our watermelon?"

"It weighs more than ten or twenty catties."

"So big?" There is a big watermelon in twenty catties.

"Well, but there are very few watermelons weighing twenty catties. There may be a few occasionally, and most of them are still weighing more than ten catties."

"It's still okay, it's selling every day."

Following Yan Chen, he talked about the house, "I took a look at the house. Uncle Tao always chooses the newer houses, usually on the second and third floors, and the light is very good. It is the employees in the store who live there, there are no vacant houses left, and they all pay the water and electricity bills themselves."

"Very good, very good! This way they know how to be frugal." Some people rely on the fact that everything is paid by the boss, so they don't know how to save anything, and they can still be extravagant.

"Yes!"

At the beginning, considering the specific situation of Uncle Duoji and Uncle Zheng Gang, they rented a two-bedroom house for each of them near their hot pot restaurant for them to live temporarily.

In this way, it is convenient for them to go to and from get off work, and it is convenient to take care of the children of their two families to study nearby.

"Tell you something?" followed Yan Chen and asked suddenly.

"What?" Seeing that his tone suddenly became serious and formal, Xiang Jin also became serious.

"Uncle Tao said that someone came to him a few days ago and wanted to buy hot pot ingredients from us and go back to open a hot pot restaurant like ours in the north of the city, so I will discuss it with you. Do you think we should sell it or not?"

Xiang Jin said, "It stands to reason that if there is business, we should still do it, but we still need to get to know the other party clearly before we talk about it. First of all, we have to find out about the character of that person. We don't want us to provide it to you when the time comes." They used the hot pot base, but he tampered with the hot pot base, slandered us, and ruined the reputation of our hot pot restaurant, don’t turn it around and blackmail us a lot, it’s not good.”

Yan Chen nodded during the phone call and said, "Well, what you said makes sense, okay, then I'll ask Uncle Tao to find out more, and I'll talk about it after I find out."

"Okay! Do you have anything else to do? If not, I'll hang up?" followed Xiang Jin.

"No more, hang up!"

"Oh, by the way, how is the business of Han Che's family? Have you visited it?" Xiang Jin suddenly remembered and asked.

Yan Chen said, "Very good, they are also very busy every day."

"Oh, that's good, then I'll hang up?"

"Hang up!"

When Xiang Jin hung up the phone, Yan Chen frowned slightly on the other end.

At this moment, Uncle Tao came over with a plate of sliced ​​cantaloupe and put it in front of him, "I finished talking with girl Jin, how about it, did you discuss it with her, what did she say?"

Yan Chen picked up a piece of fruit with a toothpick and ate it, then nodded, "Say it, she asked us to understand everything about the other party first, in case the other party uses our hot pot ingredients to make a fuss, and then blackmail our money."

Uncle Tao nodded, "Okay, then don't be in a hurry, alas, but having said that, this girl is thoughtful and careful. Sometimes I think you two children are really not like children. If you say you are thoughtful, then It's just that many adults can't compare, you are like this, and she is like this, you really look like two monsters!"

Yan Chen squinted at him, "Have you never heard of a wise man worrying a lot?"

Uncle Tao nodded, "I've heard that, I've also heard that a wise man will make a mistake if he thinks about it, or he may make a mistake," he smiled and looked at him after he finished speaking.

Yan Chen squinted at him again angrily, threw the toothpick into the trash can, and then got up, "You want us to miss something, right?"

"No, no, I wish you were all well. If you are well, I will be well," Uncle Tao hastily denied.

"It's almost there!"

Seeing his leaving back, Uncle Tao yelled at him, "Oh, you don't want to eat?!"

"Don't eat, you can eat by yourself," Yan Chen didn't turn his head.

Uncle Tao forked a piece to his mouth and took a bite, then said to himself, "If you don't want to eat it, tell me in advance, I won't cut so much, such a big plate, how can I eat it alone?" It's over, it's a waste!"

Yang Hui only scored more than 490 points in the test this time. He chose to repeat the exam. After reviewing his homework for half a month at home, he found that there were many questions that he didn't understand, so he took the book and asked Xiang Jin for advice.

When Yang Zhao saw him coming, he also followed. The two little guys from Xiang Jin's second uncle's family saw their two cousins ​​coming, and they wanted to come and play with them for a while.

In this way, Xiang Jin and his family became a big house, full of bustle and noise every day.

Looking at the few people who came to play and make a mess, Yang Zhao acted as the king of the children, and Xiang Jin looked at Yang Hui who was sitting next to him and asked again, "Are you sure you still want to continue to study in the middle school?" what?"

Yang Hui nodded, "Well, I'm still studying in the middle school."

"Actually, I don't think you should be so persistent in choosing to study in a secondary vocational school. Now the secondary vocational school is very popular, but when the country's economy develops, all walks of life will need that kind of highly educated talents. At that time, I think college students may be more popular, but I think you can choose to go to high school."

Yang Zhao said, "I know you're doing it for my own good, but I'm not like you guys. You guys are smart and have good grades. It's no problem for you to go to high school, but you see, I haven't learned many courses in junior high school yet. Understand, the high school courses are more profound, and I will definitely not understand them even more. Instead of spending three years in class like listening to heavenly scriptures, I might as well take advantage of it now to repeat a year, Then just try to get into a middle school, at least it will be a diploma recognized by the country, right?"

Xiang Jin really wanted to say that maybe they are trying their best and wasting their time to obtain the secondary school, which will become a diploma that will be eliminated by the society one day in the future. At that time, not only the secondary school is worthless, but Even undergraduate diplomas from junior colleges and ordinary colleges will be worthless, and the most popular ones are graduate and doctoral diplomas from key universities, but seeing his determined expression, she swallowed her words again , and said instead, "Okay, then you can ask me what you don't understand or what you don't understand. I usually read in my room if I have nothing to do."

Yang Hui nodded, "Well, I know, you did so well in the exam, why don't you take a good rest during the summer vacation?"

Xiang Jin lied and said, "Didn't you all say that the high school courses are profound, and my current test performance does not mean that I will do well in the future. The high school includes many top students from schools, so I dare not relax. I have to preview the high school courses first, otherwise what should I do if I can't keep up?"

Yang Hui nodded, and then Xiang Jin asked again, "Where do you plan to repeat your studies? Is it the original school or another school?"

Yang Hui said, "I plan to go to the town to repeat my studies, and my parents also support it."

Xiang Jin nodded, "Yes, it's close. Yang Zhao will also be in the town at that time. If you two want to find your uncle and aunt, it's convenient for them to bring something. Live on campus?"

"Well, live on campus. The rooms in the store are too small to accommodate so many people. Both Yang Zhao and I live on campus, so we just go to the store to eat three meals a day."

Xiang Jin nodded, then said nothing, and then waved to a few people who were fighting together not far away.

Several people rushed over like a swarm, and Xiang Jin looked at them and said, "My cousin is very happy and welcomes you to come and play, but my cousin has a request, that is, when my cousin and I are reading in the room, you can come and play." But don't bother me, otherwise, I won't make delicious food for you, you know?"

Several people kept nodding and saying "Yes", and then Yang Zhao came up with a playful smile and asked, "Sister, what shall we have for lunch today?"

Xiang Jin asked him back, "Then what do you want to eat?"

Then Yang Zhao ordered a large table of dishes from her with his fingers, Xiang Jin looked at him and said "hehe" twice with a half-smile, "You really think of me as a cook , not so much, only five vegetables at noon, and go to the field to pick vegetables!"

Then Yang Zhao played tricks, "Isn't it, cousin, people are only guests, and you still have to ask them to go to the field to pick vegetables. You don't have any hospitality at all?"

Xiang Jin gave him an annoyed look, "What kind of guests are you? I never think of you as guests, and so do you guys. What kind of food do you want to eat every day, come to me and report first. , The report is ready. I think I have the ingredients at home, so I will make them for you. If you don’t have the ingredients, you will know? Similarly, you have to go to the field to pick vegetables yourself if you want to eat. Ah, you wash the dishes by yourself after eating, you can form a team freely, two people, of course, the person who cooks the pot doesn’t have to be responsible for washing the dishes.”

Xiang Lan and Yang Xin quickly raised their hands, "I'll cook the pot!"

"Okay, then you two can take turns! For example, one cooks the rice pot and the other cooks the frying pan."

The two nodded and said they had no objections, Xiang Lan turned her head and whispered to Yang Xin, "The firewood in our house is made of hard branches, which are easy to burn, and you only need to put one in the stove once in a while. "

Yang Xin nodded "hmmmm", saying that he thought so too.

Seeing the slickness of the two of them, Xiang Jin was a little speechless.

Then she looked at the other people present, Yang Hui had no objection, Yang Xu said nothing, but Yang Zhao said with a mournful face, "Ah, do you still have to wash the dishes?"

Xiang Jin said, "Ah, that's for sure. I can't cook for you again, and I have to wash the dishes again, right? Then what have I become? Sincerely your servant servant? Then you must wash it." up!

You see, you are all my cousins, and if it is not good for me to appoint one of you to wash, then you can form a team freely, so that I am fair and just, and you have no complaints, right? "

"Okay, just wash the dishes." Yang Zhao knew Xiang Jin's principles, so after struggling for a while, he had no choice but to accept her arrangement.

In this way, Xiang Jin and his family had a few more free laborers. Even when their cattle came later, she never took care of them. They were the ones who raised them every day, or her grandfather The heads of vegetables in the field were turned back for it to chew.
