Chapter 80

Half a month after the wheat harvest was over, Old Man Jin led a team of twenty or so Qingshan villagers to the second room of Fu's house in the dark.

"Brother Jin, sit, sit..." Fu Quan took Old Jin's hand and pulled him to sit down: "Come on, leave the physical work to them young people, let's have a good drink."

"Okay, I can't move my old bones anyway, let's have a drink." Uncle Jin was not polite.

After half a round of drinking, when Fu Quan was about to mention the hot sauce, old man Jin spoke first: "Brother Fu, I have to trouble you again during the autumn harvest to help me raise a batch of rice."

"No problem, why don't you help me? I bought your leather goods and made a little money. This kind of thing should be, should be..." Fu Quan asked in a hurry: "Didn't it last time?" I bought a bunch of hot sauce in your village!"

"Remember, said that your nephew and daughter-in-law liked it, and bought dozens of cans!"

"The child has no other hobbies, but loves to eat. It didn't take long for her to eat almost [-]% of that batch of hot sauce."

Uncle Jin burst out laughing when he heard this, but he still remembered that He Tao ate three meatloaf in one go, stroked his beard and said, "That girl is actually pretty good-natured, and I like it when I look at it."

"Don't say she likes it, but I really like that flavor too. A while ago, when I went out for shopping, I took a can with me!" Fu Quan gradually brought the topic to re-purchase: "What's more coincidental, This hot sauce has also caught someone's fancy, and asked me to buy a batch for him, and to tell you the truth, the price he offered me was this amount..."

Fu Quan made a comparison of "seven": "Seventy yuan a can, so, Brother Jin, I just want to have the cheek to earn hard money and talk to you about the hot sauce business."

Uncle Jin was surprised. At the beginning when he sold a can of [-] Wen to Fu Quan, he felt that it was too expensive and felt sorry for his friend. He didn't expect Fu Quan to resell it for a higher price.This thing is not uncommon in their village, so he would be willing to sell it for money, so he nodded quickly and said, "Okay! Tell me, but no one in the village has any extras for this thing now, and we have to wait until the end of autumn when it is ripe." Do. How much do you want?"

"No problem, anyway, this is not waiting for the rice to go down, the end of autumn is the end of autumn. Things, a can can earn [-] yuan, so the more the better!" Fu Quan cheerfully filled a bowl for himself and old man Jin. Jiu, continued: "Anyway, that buyer is also a foreigner, and he only comes twice a year. Even if I prepare the goods tomorrow, I will have to wait until he arrives at the end of the year to deliver the goods. The end of autumn is just right, just in time for the end of the autumn harvest." , when you come down the mountain to transport food, you can also bring down the hot sauce, which saves me a lot of energy, you don’t know, the last time I went to the mountain, it really cost me half my life..."

"The people on your dam are like this when they go to the mountains. They came back and lay down for a few days..."

The business has been negotiated, the food has been shipped away, and the fur goods have been piled up in a batch. The family has nothing to worry about now. Fu Quan plans to go to the provincial capital again in the near future, so he told Wu.

Naturally, Wu would not object.Originally, she regarded her husband as her god, but after getting the 250 taels of silver note brought back by Fu Quan last time, she almost confessed to Fu Quan as a god.However, she still has other worries on her mind - Fu Lei's marriage.

"Father, you have to talk to the fourth brother before you go out, I'm out of luck!"

Because of the good reputation of the couple, when they married the first three sons, many people were willing to marry their daughters. Now that the family has opened a shop and is getting richer, more people want to marry them.

Ever since she let out the rumor that she wanted to show Fu Lei, the matchmakers in this village and other villages almost leveled the threshold of their family. They met more than a dozen girls, all of whom were from good families and could be considered rich peasants. , and the girls themselves are all upright, and one of them is the village flower of their village, but Fu Lei didn't like any of them.

Wu only thought her son was picky and didn't think too much about it, but recently she heard some gossip in the village that Fu Lei wanted to marry a lady from a rich family!

"Although these words are sour words from those who have nothing to do, after hearing them, I feel uneasy. Do you think it is the fourth child who knows that our family is rich now? Although you said that the matter of hot sauce money is temporarily Don't tell the children, but the fourth child followed you when you entered the mountain. Could it be that he knew about it, that's why he was so picky, and really wanted to marry a lady from a rich family in the future!" Wu said and sighed.There are rich and rich troubles!

"If he really thinks that way, he should talk about him, but I don't think this is the problem." After hearing this, Fu Quan fell into deep thought.

The reason why he didn't tell his sons that the family had made a lot of money was because he was afraid that they would become more thoughtful when they became rich.Not to mention the kids who just grew up, even he himself had a lot of shameless thoughts at the beginning. If he didn't deal with it properly once he got rich, he might ruin a few originally good kids.

Regarding the matter of seeing his wife, Fu Lei was very positive at the beginning, and the change did not appear after the start of the hot sauce business. In fact, there were signs of this in the first two months.But what was the reason, he couldn't figure it out even after thinking about it.

Wu suddenly said: "Is it possible that this child has someone in his heart? Hey, what am I thinking, how is this possible..."

As soon as the words came out of her mouth, she denied it herself.Although the couple are indeed stricter than others in disciplining their children, they are not blindly arbitrary. When it comes to matters related to the children, they will ask the children their own opinions, especially the important events in the child's life. Fu Lei's wishes are the first principle, otherwise, he would not have rejected so many people who seemed suitable to them, and there would not be the conversation they have today.

Fu Quan frowned suddenly and said, "Unless..."

"Unless what?" Wu asked hastily.

"We won't agree unless that kid thinks he likes it!"

"No, we have to tell him clearly, our family can't tolerate that kind of dubious person!" Wu Shi became anxious when he heard that.Afraid that they will not agree?Why didn't they agree?Doesn't it mean that the girl has a problem!
The old couple were immediately irritated by their guess, and rushed to find Fu Lei, but when they opened the door, they found that he was not at home!Where can I go this big night? !

Could it be that……

Fu Quan and Wu Shi glanced at each other, and they both understood what the other was thinking, and suddenly felt a sense of dizziness.

Wu suddenly complained: "If the door had been sealed back then, would he have come out so quietly?"

The current house of the second room of the Fu family is composed of two parts. Fu Quan and the eldest family live in the yard built by Fu Quan, while the other three sons live in the yard of the original big house.The two courtyards originally shared the same courtyard wall. After Fu Quan bought it from Fu Shi, he thought that the family would be separated anyway, so he didn't tear down the middle wall, and opened a small door on it. The door was not sealed either.

Fu Lei was still there during dinner, and after the meal, the couple stayed in the courtyard to enjoy the cool air. It was impossible for Fu Lei to slip out under their noses, and he must have gone out through the original gate of the big house.

"This bastard, see if I don't deal with him properly today!" Fu Quan snorted heavily, lifted a bench and sat in front of Fu Lei's door, intending to beat him up when he came back.

"It really needs to be cleaned up!" Mrs. Wu also took a bench and sat down next to Fu Quan.

As soon as the two got angry, their voices became louder. The second child Fu Chao and the third child Fu Tian both left their room when they heard the noise, and then saw their parents sitting in front of Fu Lei's door like door gods. They couldn't help but dumbfounded.

"Father, mother, what are you two doing?" Fu Chao stepped forward and asked.

"What's wrong with fourth child?" Fu Tian asked without seeing Fu Lei.

"Provoking trouble? What's causing the trouble?!" Fu Quan asked back with a beard and staring eyes when he said this.The more he talked, the more he got angry, he said angrily: "You three brothers live in the same courtyard, knowing that he likes to make trouble, why don't you think highly of him, just let him slip out!"

"It's because of this?" Fu Tian sighed and said, "I know about this, it is said that I went to catch frogs with Nianzu..."

"Catch frogs? Do you believe everything he says?! If he really went to catch frogs, he can't tell us, so why don't we let him go!" Mrs. Wu shook her head, the third child was too honest.

Fu Tian was told by Wu that he didn't know what to say, but Fu Chao figured it out by the side. It was not the first time that the fourth child ran out without saying a word. So this is definitely not the reason why parents are angry, the fourth child must have caused trouble again!

"How about I go find him now?" Fu Chao asked tentatively.

"What are you looking for, you have to make it known to all the neighbors!" Fu Quan patted his legs: "You go back to sleep with yours, and your mother and I will wait for him! Come back and take care of him!"

He said so, but Fu Chao and Fu Tian really went back to the house and continued to sleep. Not only that, even Cheng Miao and Xue Ya who were hiding in the house also came out, and the two young couples stood quietly. Behind the old couple, wait for Fu Lei to come back with them.

After the six people had fed one crop after another of mosquitoes, Fu Lei finally came back, and was immediately dumbfounded when he saw the battle—who can tell him what happened? !

"Kneel down!" Fu Quan roared.

Fu Lei quickly knelt down without saying a word, raised his head and asked, "Father, why?"

"Why?! Do you still dare to ask why?" Fu Quan fell back angrily, and was about to ask him which shameless person he was seeing, but Wu Shi pulled him back and said to Fu Lei, "Let's go!" , Come back to the house with me, I have something to ask you about your father."

After finishing speaking, he dragged Fu Quan to his room, and whispered as he walked, "Save him some face, let's talk about him in private first."

Taking advantage of their inattention, Fu Lei shot his brothers and sisters-in-law begging for help—why?

Fu Chao and the others shook their heads to express their ignorance, and warned him not to say the wrong thing with their eyes, so as not to make the inexplicably angry parents even more angry.

Fu Lei had no choice but to shrug his head and follow behind Fu Quan and his wife, and went to the main room in a daze.

"Tell me honestly, is there someone in your heart?" Fu Quan asked straight to the point.

Does Dad have supernatural powers or something, he even knows this? !Fu Lei almost held his breath when he heard that, he stared at Fu Quan dumbfounded, and stammered in denial: "Father, you, what are you doing, I, what am I doing..."

His performance fully affirmed the conjecture of the old couple. Wu Shi was so angry that her heart ached, she covered her chest with one hand and pointed at Fu Lei, so angry that she was speechless.

"Are you trying to piss us off?!" Fu Quan supported Wu Shi with one hand, and threw a teacup towards Fu Lei with the other: "Son!"

Seeing Wu Shi's appearance, Fu Lei was so frightened that he didn't even want to hide. Regardless of the bag on his head, he stepped forward and knelt in front of Wu Shi: "Mother, don't be angry, I was wrong, I'll be honest, Don't get mad at yourself."

"Then tell me, who exactly are you looking for?" Wu Shi asked after she was relieved.

Fu Lei gritted his teeth and said, "He Lian!"
