Chapter 3871 Chapter 3873 [Qiao Gu]
After the excitement, everyone went home.
“Dad, what happened to the three thousand yuan you mailed back?” Zhang Jiuxiang asked Chen Jintu curiously.
Chen Jintu sent home 3,000 yuan within a few days of going out this time, which surprised Zhang Jiuxiang. She didn't know where the money came from, so she was frightened these days, and she couldn't eat or sleep well.
“Oh, that’s a long story. Let me tell you, our son is going to be very promising.” Chen Jintu smiled and told his wife that his son had exchanged a piece of candy for a treasure.
"Oh my god, what kind of bowl is it worth so much?" After hearing this, Zhang Jiuxiang was so surprised that he couldn't help hugging his son and kissing him several times, "Oh, son, you are really rich." Good luck. Three thousand yuan is enough for our family."
At that time, the villagers of Chenjia Village worked hard all year round and could only earn a hundred or so yuan. It can be said that it is not even enough to eat. That’s why they take risks, endure hardships, and make money by cracking candy everywhere.
In fact, who would be willing to take such a risk unless they were forced by life.
Now my son earns 3,000 yuan per bowl, which is the lifetime income of other villagers. He is really very capable.
She has also deposited this money in the bank for five years. By then, she will be able to earn 150 yuan in interest and be able to buy a bicycle.
He doesn't need to get involved in shouting, gathering people, bargaining, or selling sugar. He doesn't have to get involved. His son can run the business clearly by himself. If his son wasn't still young, he would have decided to go out and let his son take on the burden on his own.
Besides, Ji Fei is different from him. He looks like a child, but in fact he is an old monster who lives for more than a thousand years. He has inherited so much knowledge and wisdom, and it is normal for him to perform superbly.
“Dad, don’t talk about Brother Ji Feo like that, he’s doing pretty well.” Xiang Nan persuaded him when he saw what he said.
Don't judge others in small talk, after all, walls have ears. If these words were to reach other people's ears, wouldn't they just cause trouble?
On the twenty-fourth day of the twelfth lunar month in the south, sacrifices are made to the stove.
“That’s not as good as you.” Chen Jintu said with a smile, “Okay, today is the New Year, let’s cook something delicious to worship the Kitchen God and our Five Internal Organs Temple.”
"Kitchen Lord, please bless me. God says good things and the lower world brings good luck. Our whole family kowtows to you. I hope that in the new year, you will continue to bless our family and keep us safe and prosperous." Chen Jintu burned paper, While praying sincerely.
“Jin Shui always praises Ji Fei for being clever, but if he can’t implement it, he has to see it from the ground up.” Chen Jintu said proudly, “Ji Fei’s performance this time is obviously not as good as ours.”
Therefore, Chen Jintu really can't do anything wrong by flattering others and comparing his own children with other people's children.
“For me?” Qiaogu was immediately delighted, “Is it true?”
"Qiaogu, I give this silk flower to you." Xiang Nan secretly handed the silk flower he bought to Qiaogu.
…
Not to mention that Xiang Nan earned three thousand yuan per bowl, but just in terms of daily business, Xiang Nan's performance was quite good, and could even be said to be impeccable.
When offering sacrifices to the stove, Chen Jintu specially placed two hangings of red earth flowers, twice as much as other villagers.
Zhang Jiuxiang smiled and nodded.
"Uncle Jinshui, Auntie~" Xiang Nan first greeted Chen Jinshui and Chen Jinshui's daughter-in-law Xu Cui'e, and then went to play with Ji Feo and Qiao Gu.
After offering sacrifices to the stove and eating, Xiang Nan quietly slipped out and came to Chen Jinshui's home.
Xiang Nan and Zhang Jiuxiang also kowtowed together, in fact, it was just for psychological comfort.
Ji Feo is a real child and still needs to learn and grow. And he has performed really well along the way. He is not only hard-working, but also learns business very quickly.
"Of course." Xiang Nan nodded and smiled, "Here, I'll put it on for you."
“Does it look good?” Qiao Gu tilted her head and asked with a smile. "It looks good, it looks so good." Xiang Nan nodded repeatedly.
When Qiaogu heard this, she was very happy, "Daguang, my father has told you everything. You are really capable. One bowl sold for three thousand."
"Nothing." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said with a smile, "Let's go play. I brought a lot of firecrackers, let's set them off together."
“I don’t dare.” Qiaogu waved her hand.
"It's okay, I'm here." Xiang Nan smiled.
…
Xiang Nan took Qiaogu and Jifeo to the village yard, found a bamboo tube, and stacked two firecrackers into the bamboo tube, with the lead on one end exposed.
Xiang Nan then lit the fuse and heard a bang. The bamboo pipe was blown to pieces. At the same time, another firecracker was also blown out. It exploded in the air with a bang, just like a cannon.
Qiaogu and Jifei were very surprised when they saw it. They had never thought of this method of setting off firecrackers.
“Put one for me, put one for me~” Qiaogu clapped her hands and laughed.
Xiang Nan nodded, found another bamboo tube, put the firecrackers away, and handed the incense head to Qiao Gu.
Qiaogu held the incense head and carefully touched the lead while covering her ears.
“Bang~” Ji Fei saw this and shouted from behind.
“Oops~” Qiao Gu was startled, “Brother Ji Feo, don’t scare me, it’s so annoying.”
Ji Feo laughed.
"Here, let me help you." Xiang Nan said, grabbing Qiaogu's hand freely and steadily approaching the firecracker fuse.
The fuse was quickly ignited, and then there was an explosion, which made Qiaogu tremble. Then the firecrackers were blown away and exploded in the air again.
“Haha, it’s so fun.” Qiaogu said happily.
"Come on, let's continue playing." Xiang Nan smiled and continued to take out firecrackers and coax Qiao Gu.
●Qiaogu was naturally happy to play, and everyone had a great time together.
…
In the next few days, Xiang Nan came up with various ways to tease Qiao Gu.
For example, you can make birds and puppies out of bamboo; you can make grasshoppers and rabbits out of straw; you can make kites out of paper; you can make little people out of mud...
He is proficient in various handicrafts, and weaving these things is easy for him. But other children are not as skilled as him, so they are naturally surprised to see him making bamboo weaving, straw weaving, kites, and clay figurines.
It can be said that every item I took out made the children in the same village cry. They looked at it eagerly, wishing they could have one of their own.
But Xiang Nan paid no attention to anyone and only gave all these gadgets to Qiao Gu, which naturally made Qiao Gu both happy and proud.
Although she is still a teenage girl, she still doesn’t know what love is. But she had already developed a vague affection for Xiang Nan, and it was growing day by day.
Xiang Nan wants to achieve this effect. After all, he and Qiao Gu are still young now, only thirteen years old after the Chinese New Year, so it is too early to say anything.
It’s already good to have such a vague good feeling. In two years, when they have grown up, it will be too late to fall in love.
Xiang Nan is not worried that chicken feathers will be an obstacle to him. Because he and Qiaogu grew up together, they have been called brother and sister since childhood. It's not easy to switch to husband and wife, and it's not like playing house.
