In this story of daily life during the 80s, the once fat and ugly Chu Xuan is reborn in a small fishing village in 1983. In this life, she doesn't want to cause Mu Chenze's family to be rui...
Chapter 309: There is a clue
Chu Dashan, who was watching TV, caught sight of Mu Chenze's figure out of the corner of his eye. His heart beat faster, and he felt that Mu Chenze would not give up.
I'm afraid no one would believe what I've experienced if I told them.
Absolutely cannot say it.
Mu Chenze sat next to Chu Dashan and handed him an orange, "Uncle Chu, eat an orange."
Chu Dashan immediately took it and put it on the table, "Don't eat in a hurry, watch TV first."
Mu Chenze poured tea into his cup and said, "Drink tea."
Chu Dashan responded politely, "Okay, thank you."
Mu Chenze patted him on the back and said, "Uncle Chu, you are more polite and behave better than before."
Chu Dashan tried to remain calm. "Actually, I've always understood the importance of being polite and a good person, but I'm just too lazy to practice it."
"Really? Then a person's temperament can't be improved instantly, right? You are much more elegant than before! If it weren't for the fact that you have no skin on your face, I would have suspected that you were someone else pretending to be you."
"Chen Ze, it's New Year's Day, we shouldn't joke around like that. I'm not that fake Li Lai. If you don't believe me, just look at my scalp. There's not a single trace of surgery."
As he spoke, Chu Dashan lowered his head, parted his hair, and let Mu Chenze see his scalp.
Mu Chenze took the opportunity to take a closer look, but really didn't find anything suspicious.
After a while, the food was served.
After dinner, Chu Dashan said goodbye.
After the Mu family finished cleaning up, each family went back to their rooms to rest.
Lying on the kang, Mu Chenze hugged his wife and chatted.
"Xiao Xuan, I feel like something's wrong with Chu Dashan, but I can't figure out what's wrong."
"Don't worry, we'll find out sooner or later. By the way, our cram school starts on the 16th of the first lunar month. By then, we might have already flown abroad. Let's take some time to visit the teacher and bring some exercises with us, right?"
"OK."
They will take the college entrance examination this year, but they still have to go abroad. After all, their paths are not limited to the college entrance examination.
At this moment, Chu Dashan had arrived at the gate of the village-run factory. Wang Depin was waiting in the guard room and told him that he could get off work at ten o'clock tonight and come back to work at ten o'clock tomorrow morning and get off work until ten o'clock in the evening. In this way, he could have two meals in the cafeteria and have breakfast at home.
At night, patrol members take turns on duty.
This is also the decision just made by the factory office.
This was exactly what Chu Dashan wanted.
At around 10:30 in the evening, Chu Dashan returned to his residence. The kang in the house was cold, so he started burning it again. He didn't feel bad at all about burning firewood. He would not compromise himself in the slightest.
After a while, the firewood was lit. I added five or six buckets of water into the stove. After heating it up, I washed and soaked my feet.
Before going to bed, the firewood was not extinguished. There was a small mechanism at the stove mouth. When it was closed, the burning speed of the firewood slowed down, which could maintain the temperature of the kang.
Lying on the kang, thinking about things.
The temperature of the kang can be maintained overnight, but now no one gets up early to make breakfast for him, so the kang will cool down tomorrow morning.
Chu Dashan suddenly wanted to hire someone to make breakfast for him so that he wouldn't have to get up early and the kang would be warm in the morning.
After hiring someone, he locked the door with an iron chain from the inside every night. The next morning, the hired person would take the key, reach in through the crack in the door, and unlock it.
Just who to hire?
With his reputation, who else would dare to come except single women who are attracted by his money?
Unless you hire a man.
As long as you don't have to get up early, hiring a man will do.
Tomorrow he will ask Wang Depin to help him find out who is willing to hire him.
Fifty cents for making breakfast every day, hired for three months.
There was no need to worry about firewood, as Widow Autumn had bought enough firewood to last the winter.
When the weather gets warmer, he can make some breakfast for himself.
As for money, he has no worries.
He currently has 20,000 yuan in his hand, and ambergris can be sold for more than 100,000 yuan. Even if Chu Xuan only has 60,000 yuan in his hands temporarily, it is still his money.
Enough for him.
What's more, he works as a security guard and earns a few dozen yuan a month.
At your age, you should enjoy the rest of your life and never let yourself down.
At nine o'clock the next morning, the village office loudspeaker came, "Mu Chenze is at the village office to answer the phone."
Qin Mahua looked at Mu Chenze, "Xiao Ze, come back early after you finish your call. Today our family is going to your uncle's house. Go early so we can talk more."
"Okay."
Mu Chenze rode his bike towards the village office.
When we got there, only Wang Depin was there.
Wang Depin smiled and said, "It was Min Yi who called. It shouldn't be about the reward."
Mu Chenze chuckled, "There's no rush about the reward. I asked Min Yi to do something yesterday, and I think we've got some clues."
As soon as he finished speaking, the phone rang.
Wang Depin walked out and said, "You answer the phone, I'm going to the toilet."
Mu Chenze certainly knew that this was a private space deliberately left for him to answer the phone.
Answer the call.
Min Yi's voice came, "Hello..."
"Brother, it's me."
"Chen Ze, you're pretty quick to answer the phone."
"Have you made any progress on the task I asked you to do yesterday?"
"That's right. During the few days Chu Dashan stayed in the city, he sold a lot of valuable items. However, his money was almost stolen by a thief. Thanks to a colleague of mine who saw it and helped him recover the money. By the way, he was pushed to the ground by the thief and hit the back of his head, causing him to faint. He later woke up on his own and said that he was fine, so my colleague didn't take him to the hospital. Because of this, he even asked someone to write a thank-you letter to my company. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to investigate so quickly..."
"Did he have his fortune told when he went to the city?"
“I haven’t found out about this yet…”
About ten minutes later, Mu Chenze returned home.
I rode a bicycle with my wife on it, gifts hanging on the handlebars, and went to my uncle's house with my parents, older brother and sister-in-law.
Muchenfu and Fuqing were riding bicycles, with gifts hanging on the handlebars.
Mu Qinlao and Qin Mahua rode a tricycle with gifts in the cargo box.
There are six gifts in total, all of them are good things.
Last year, my family had a good income, so there was no problem in sending some good things to the Qin family.
On the way there, Mu Chenze whispered to his wife what Min Yi had found out.
When Chu Xuan heard that Chu Dashan hit the back of his head and later woke up, he finally realized that something was wrong.
Chu Dashan either changed his soul or was reborn.
Chu Dashan insisted on going out to sea with the ship because he knew there were big cargoes in that sea area.
Chu Xuan estimated that the previous life experienced by the current Chu Dashan was not the same as hers.
Chu Dashan probably knows about the things in this life, so he is more aware of the current situation than before.
"Ze, didn't Chu Dashan mention that there's a fortune teller in the city? When you have time, test him and ask him to take you to the city to find the expert."
"I mentioned it to him when we were on the boat, and he said he could take me to see a master."
"He promised, but let's see if he can actually see it. If he does, it can be attributed to him being guided by someone more advanced. But what if he doesn't?"
"If he didn't see it, then he's lying!" Mu Chenze was a little confused. "If he didn't receive guidance from an expert, how did he know there were big goods in that sea area? Did he go to the city, hit the back of his head, and then developed special abilities?"
Chu Xuan admired her husband a little. He was so smart.
"Ze, I think so too. But we have to keep this a secret."
