Several people entered the house, let Alu lie on the kang, wiped his sweat, changed his clothes, and heated food for them.

While eating, Mrs. Wang briefly talked about her trip to Fucheng. The treatment process went smoothly, but Alu suffered a serious crime. When the bone was broken, he passed out from the pain. When he woke up, he cried in pain, which made Chen Ming and others shed tears.

However, he recovered very well from his injuries. Even the doctor at Qianjin Medical Center said that he recovered faster than others. I spent a total of twelve taels and five cents on treatment and medicine, and brought back more than twenty packets of medicine and a dozen ointments.

Ms. Wang also said that they had been staying at Chen Shi's house for more than half a month, and Chen Shi's family had helped a lot, and they didn't want any money from them.

Because there was so much money left, before leaving, Wang went to the cloth store to buy a piece of silk to make clothes for each of his family of five, but she secretly left the two silver coins at his house.

He also said that the life of Chen Shi's family was far from as easy as these people said. The yard was very small and they were frugal. They stewed some meat every day just for Alu to eat, and the three children in the family couldn't eat it. Chen Shi borrowed a few taels of silver to repair Dafang's house, which was repaid in the past few months. Chen Shi's daughter-in-law, Ms. Zhang, was full of complaints against Mr. Hu, saying that she no longer wanted to return to Luo Village...

Chen Shi has a good reputation. In the past, he always told Mrs. Chen and Brother Chen Ye about good news and bad news. After making money, I am also willing to honor my mother and two brothers, and often bring money and things to the family. After being stabbed to death by Mr. Hu, he no longer cared about his face and let Mr. Zhang tell the story. They were running a small business in Fucheng. They worked from dawn to dusk every day and earned less than ten taels of silver a month. Life in Fucheng is expensive, and two sons have to go to school...

Several people were heard sighing.

A few people talked for a while, and Chen Dabao reported that Qiqi and his mother had made another amount of money, and had established a relationship with Xile Restaurant, which made Wang and Alu very happy.

Alu looked at his sister's little eyes with even more admiration and said, Look at the business of my third uncle's family. It's not easy to run and make money. How come my sister is so capable and earns so much easily?

Chen Afu laughed a few times and said, You must be good at using your brain when doing things and do things that others have not thought of, so that you can make more money.

Chen Ming educated A Lu and Dabao, Did you hear that? What A Fu said is a wise saying. No matter what you do, including learning, you must be good at using your brain.

Alu and Dabao nodded.

After Wang and Alu rested for a while, they asked Dabao to go to the main room to invite Mrs. Chen over, and also invited Chen Ye over for dinner.

In a short time, Mrs. Chen came running.

The old lady hugged Chen Alu and cried again.

Mrs. Wang gave her a pound of candy that she bought for the old lady in Fucheng, and gave her the snacks that Chen Shi bought for the old lady.

Then the old lady asked how much they spent this time, and Wang honestly said twelve taels of silver.

The old lady was surprised, Why do you have so much money?

Chen Ming whispered, I made some money selling sewing baskets, and Ah Fu made some money making sewing bags.

The old lady looked even more satisfied when she saw Chen Afu's eyes, and said, Afu is really capable. You must remember how your father raised you and respect him throughout your life.

Chen Afu smiled and said, Don't worry, I will always remember it. Not only must I be filial to my father, but I must also be filial to you, the old man.

The old lady became even more happy and asked again, Don't say that you earned so much money by making sewing kits, and don't say how much money Alu spent on treating his illness. That girl from the Hu family has short-sighted eyes.

Mrs. Wang told the actual situation of Chen Shi's family again, which made the old lady wipe her tears.

The old lady also complained about Chen Shi, That silly boy, your life is not easy, why do you want to build such a big yard for us?

Mrs. Wang endured it and did not dare to tell Mrs. Hu about secretly crying for a house.

Just as he was talking, Chen Ye, Hu, Chen Dahu, and Chen Daya came.

Before Mrs. Hu entered the house, she said loudly, Hey, how much money have you made? You still have such a big piece of meat hanging under the eaves, regardless of the age? When he entered the kitchen, he saw the remaining food on the table. Half a basin of pig's trotter soup and two small bowls of leftovers, he shouted again, Hey, you cooked so much meat, where did you get the money?

Chen Afu explained, We didn't buy these meats. Young Master Yang came to play at home this morning and they brought them.

Chen Ming also told how Young Master Yang was the young owner of Xile Restaurant and played well with Chen Dabao. Then he ignored Hu's curiosity and directly told Chen Ye about Alu's treatment situation.

After the meal, when they left, Wang gave them the candies she bought for Dafang and the snacks Chen Shi bought.

Mr. Hu looked at the dim sum with a look of disbelief on his face and asked, Uncle San didn't just give us this pack of dim sum, did he?

Wang's face turned red with anger and she said loudly, If my sister-in-law doesn't believe it, wait until my third uncle comes back and ask him. I'm not so short-sighted as to be greedy for things that others bring to you.

Chen Ye quickly explained, Third brother and sister, please don't be angry. Agui Niang didn't mean that. He scolded Mrs. Hu again, What's going on with you? Do you know how to speak? You are getting more and more confused. Didn't the third brother and sister just say that? , life at my third brother’s family is not easy either.”

Mrs. Hu muttered, No matter how hard it is, it's still much better than what we have in the countryside.

Old Mrs. Chen didn't want to save face for her anymore and scolded, You are the only sister-in-law who can care about what my brother-in-law wants. San'er only brought me a pack of snacks. How could he show his filial piety to you? More than me?

Chen Ye blushed and glared at Mrs. Hu again.

Hu Shifang said nothing, but looking at her face, she still didn't believe that Chen Shi only brought her a pack of snacks.

Wang was so angry that she panicked.

From the next day, Chen Afu prepared a nutritious meal for Alu. He must drink milk in the morning, bone soup at noon and evening, alternate between eating lean meat and pork liver, and also let him bask in the sun outside.

Every day when Mrs. Wang goes to buy meat, and when people envy her family's easy life, Mrs. Wang will say, I don't buy much, so I can replenish Alu's health.

In her spare time, Chen Afu asked Wang to teach her how to make clothes and pants. When she watched Mr. Wang cutting his trousers, she said it didn't look good and was uncomfortable to wear. She suggested how Wang would cut it, but Wang didn't dare to do it yet.

Chen Afu used the fabric he bought for Dabao to practice. What Wang didn't expect was that the pants not only fit well, but also looked good on them. It's a good fit, but relatively speaking, it's still relatively wide, but it's not as straight up and down as before, and the waistband and crotch are smaller and shallower.

After Chen Fu's was finished, he made it for Chen Ming. After putting it on, Chen Ming said, It's much more comfortable to wear than the original pants.

Mrs. Wang was so happy that she cut the rest of her trousers like this.

At noon on the 26th, Xiao Shitou ran over and said, Aunt Fu, your furniture is ready. My father and second uncle will deliver it right away. Then he ran to the west end of the village to find a walking bird and pick it up. Chen Dabao of Chaihuo went to play.

Chen Afu was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly went to the new courtyard with Mrs. Wang to open the door. Chen Ming and Alu, who was on crutches, also came over to take a look.

Thank you Feng Liu'er for the sachet, and thank Xiao Huan'er, Jane and Rose for their purses.
