Chapter 376(1/2)
: Not even close to each other
Chen Ling was so surprised to see who the person was that he was stunned for two seconds before he went up to call for someone.
It's really unimaginable.
It was my aunt Chen Junying who came.
No wonder Wang Susu called for relatives to come to the house before entering the house.
The person who came was my husband's aunt, who was the last relative on my husband's side.
Husband’s last relative.
Even after the death of her father-in-law, the aunt had not visited the house for more than three years, and her son had not come over for a full month. Wang Susu had nothing to complain about. After Chen Junying came, he left the village medicine shop behind without saying a word.
, and took her to the farm.
When Chen Ling saw Chen Junying, he didn't show anything special.
To put it bluntly, even though this aunt is not close to my family, she is a relative of my family, not an enemy. She is here to visit relatives. As a nephew, I must treat her wholeheartedly.
So after greeting her with a smile, Chen Ling took the big and small bags brought by Chen Junying, and Chen Ling asked again: "Aunt, how did you come? It's such a long way, and my uncle and Brother Xiaoyuan didn't accompany you."
"Hey, they all went out to work in the spring of this year. It's not interesting to leave me and your sister-in-law at home with the baby. Just a while ago, our village spring gave birth to his mother-in-law who went back to her parents' home and talked about what happened here.
It was a Turtle Prince who came to the reservoir outside our village. It was very lively and very effective. As soon as I heard this, I also wanted to go back to my hometown to see you guys, so I took your sister-in-law and my two children in their car and came back together.
Already."
Chen Junying said with a smile.
She is a very strong woman with short hair, a square face, red and black face, big eyes, and a big mouth, which looks like a lion's nose and wide mouth.
I heard from people in the village that back then, whether it was training animals or borrowing animals from other villages, all the tasks on the team were left to her. She was also a good hand at farm work and had no shortage of strength.
However, despite her strong appearance, Auntie is good at farm work.
In fact, she is an honest and cowardly woman with no independent opinions.
When he talks, it's not just ordinary chatter.
If you talk about one thing, you can talk about it for thousands of miles. If you talk too much, you will be even worse than Tang Seng.
Even how to hold a hoe to save energy and how to wash the dishes clean are all given.
Chen Ling's mother was extremely disgusted with her. Sometimes she would listen to the nagging in her ears, and when she got tired of it, she couldn't help but get angry and scold the eldest sister, telling her to stop talking. If she thinks I'm not doing a good job, I'll replace you.
Come.
Whenever this happens, my aunt will feel very aggrieved, thinking that she obviously means well.
As time goes by, the relationship becomes worse and worse, and the conflicts between the two stem from this.
Chen Ling also knew very well what kind of person his aunt was, and knew that if he followed Chen Junying's words and said what Lao Turtle said, he would definitely talk endlessly, so he turned to ask about other things.
"That's right, where are the sister-in-law and the baby? Why didn't they see anyone?"
"Oh, I'm so angry when I talk about this. Your brother's little boy is so disobedient. When he saw the bustle at the reservoir, with a lot of food and entertainment for sale, he cried and made trouble and refused to leave. Your sister-in-law is taking her
He's playing there."
Chen Junying smiled helplessly, "There are too many acquaintances over there. As soon as I, the old daughter of Chen Wangzhuang, came back, she gossiped with me everywhere. When I was walking here just now, I told Su Su that we were here.
I saw Cunye and Xiulan at the reservoir, and they were very friendly. Seeing your sister-in-law taking Xiaobo and buying them food and toys made the people in our village laugh, and I was so embarrassed...
…”
When Wang Susu heard this, she took her hand and said, "Auntie, what's the joke? It's a rare trip, but I should buy something for my baby."
"Xiao Bo is still young, so you shouldn't let your father and mother waste money on him. I taught him this before I entered the village."
Wang Susu meant what she said, but Chen Junying felt a little hot-skinned and said hurriedly.
People always buy this and that for their little grandson, and they are very willing to spend money, but they don’t buy anything to eat or play for their grandnephew.
I only brought some cloth for clothes and a small blanket.
Especially when she thought about the teasing words of acquaintances in the village, joking about what good things she had brought to her grandnephew.
This made Chen Junying suddenly feel that he couldn't get rid of the things he had originally gritted his teeth to buy.
She is an honest person. If Chen Ling's uncle, who was not right, was not around, she would be a very kind woman.
At this time, feeling a little guilty, he teased Ruirui in Wang Susu's arms and said with emotion: "I haven't come back in the past two or three years, and I don't know how prosperous Fugui is now. Now that we have a family and a baby, what's the point?
It’s different.”
"Susu, you don't know. People outside are praising Fugui for his ability. When they heard that I was Fugui's aunt, they all stuck their heads out and looked at me like a monkey."
Wang Susu just laughed after hearing this.
Then he and Chen Ling looked at each other. Chen Ling immediately understood. He put Chen Junying's things aside and said, "Auntie, you and Su Su should go into the house and have a rest. It's not early now. I'll hurry up and prepare for lunch."
meal."
When Chen Junying heard this, he wondered why his eldest nephew was cooking. Can the food he cooked be eaten?
He quickly went to stop Chen Ling and asked her and Wang Susu to come.
After all, there is no reason for visiting relatives to let men go to the kitchen.
"It's okay, aunt. You and Susu can go inside and rest. Ruirui is very active and can't live without people watching. I was cooking at home before Susu got pregnant. Don't worry, it's no problem to cook pot rice."
.”
"Yes, Auntie, Aling's cooking is very delicious. You will know in a moment."
Wang Susu said this, and Chen Junying gave up, but was not in a hurry to sit in the house, and just let Wang Susu take her around the farm.
To be honest, she still felt like she was dreaming until now.
No matter how hard you think about it, you would never have imagined that your nephew, who has never been promising, could earn such a huge business in just two or three years.
Two days ago, I heard Wang Chunsheng's mother-in-law talk about her nephew. At first glance, she really couldn't believe it.
When I came here today, I realized that they really weren’t lying. Looking at the farm built by my eldest nephew, it looked like he was going to make a fortune.
This farm is said to be a farm, and it doesn't sound as grand as the small western-style buildings outside. But when you walk here, you'll see what you can see.
She couldn't say how good it was. She just felt that there were mountains and rivers, many flowers and grass, beautiful scenery, and exquisite buildings, which were not inferior to those small western-style buildings.
For a time, she wanted to see every room and touch and take a look at everything. Her face was full of envy and lingering, as if Grandma Liu had entered the Grand View Garden.
"Good guy, I fed so many dogs, so many birds, and so many fish..."
Chen Junying didn't pay attention at first, but now he realized that there were so many dogs on the farm, birds were hanging all over the corridor, and there were even schools of fish swimming in the lotus ponds and canals.
I was even more convinced that this nephew was definitely going to make a fortune.
It’s not just getting rich in the ordinary sense.
In her opinion, these dogs and birds are just playthings. Who can raise these things in a poor family? That is, only those who have no worries about food and clothing and have a rich family have the spare money and time to raise these things.
Look, the eldest nephew has a house, mountains and land. He has been playful since he was a child. It is normal for him to work hard when he has made a fortune.
Not to mention anything else, there are probably dozens or hundreds of bird cages.
But this is just what he thinks in his heart. Chen Junying praised Chen Ling all the time.
I lamented that the changes in my parents' home have been so great, and it has been completely different since I came back in a few years.
There are not many old houses left in the village, and now every household has renovated a new brick house.
The land that was cleared for more than ten years was built into a farm by my eldest nephew.
The old tomb at that time was also moved and was contracted by my eldest nephew and turned into farmland.
Wang Susu accompanied her and responded, and later called Wang Zhenzhen out and asked her to boil a pot of water to make tea. After walking around the farm with Chen Junying, they went into the living room to drink tea and chat.
Chen Junying was startled when he saw the big TV in the living room, and was naturally amazed again.
After marveling, I suddenly felt a little restless.
She was quite relaxed when she came here, but now after walking around and seeing this big TV, she unconsciously became cautious.
I just felt that this eldest nephew and nephew-in-law suddenly became strange and tall, and even the original intention when they came and all the things they discussed with their daughter-in-law were forgotten.
Chen Junying felt relieved when Wang Cunye and his wife came back with Chen Ling's cousin and a four or five-year-old boy at noon.
There is a saying in the countryside: "If you don't come to your door for three years, you won't even get married."
If you live together all day long, or are relatives who come and go frequently, then naturally you won't feel anything.
But the embarrassing thing is that Chen Junying, the aunt, does not have close contact with Chen Ling's family due to various reasons.
In addition, Chen Ling's side has changed a lot. After praising Chen Ling's family for all the good things and talking about the changes in the village, she suddenly didn't know what to say.
Fortunately, Wang Cunye and his wife came back with Chen Ling's cousin, mother and son, otherwise Chen Junying would still be sitting in the living room uneasy.
At this time, Chen Ling also prepared the lunch meal, which consisted of four dishes and one soup, both meat and vegetables. He also cut a few salted duck eggs and laid them out, which could barely be considered a dish.
My aunt's family is not rich, and my uncle is a stingy man who can't bear to eat meat twice a year. When they smell the aroma of meat, Chen Junying and the other three people can't help but have their throats roll and they swallow hard.
When the meal was finally served, as soon as the rice was served, Chen Ling's taciturn cousin and the boy named Xiaobo began to devour the rice. They kept picking up the vegetables with their chopsticks, putting them in the bowl and quickly eating them.
