(Novel complete) She suddenly returned to a time before the apocalypse. Chu Tianhua spent her entire fortune collecting resources, ensuring she had everything for eating, wearing, and daily use, fi...
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Chu smiled with relief, "No need, her uncle sent her here, so we won't support her in vain. Let her help run the store, and her food expenses will be covered by her salary."
Chu Tian waved his hand and refused, "We are all family, what's the point of asking for food expenses? I received so much care from my aunt when I was a child. Now that my cousin is here, I will just take care of her and pay her the salary as usual. Let her save it and use it as a dowry in the future!"
What a joke! My own aunt's granddaughter came to live with me, worked for me, and I collected food expenses myself. What kind of thing is that? If you tell anyone about it, people will laugh at me!
Old Mrs. Chu didn't earn any money either, but she just wanted to prevent her grandson from suffering any loss, so she handed over all the housework to Yanfang.
Soon, Aunt Chu's granddaughter Wang Yanfang followed Wang Defa to Xinjiang. Chu Tian learned their departure date in advance, so he arrived at the train station early on the day to wait. Wang Defa was younger than Chu Tian, and even if he had seen him when he was a child, he had forgotten what he looked like now, so Chu Tian prepared a big sign and waited at the exit.
Just as he was looking around, a male voice came from beside him, "Is that cousin Chu Tian?"
Chu Tian turned his head and saw a man who looked about 40% like him standing next to him with a big bag on his back.
Chu Tian reacted and quickly put down the sign in his hand and reached out to take the package behind him, "Hey, it's me, Defa brother, thank you for your hard work."
Wang Defa leaned slightly to the side and said with a smile, "Cousin Chu Tian, I can carry it myself. Don't dirty your clothes."
He turned around and glanced at the girl who was following him with her head down, and said, "Yanfang, this is your uncle Chu Tian, hurry up and call for help?"
Wang Yanfang glanced at Chu Tian carefully, then quickly lowered her head and uttered two words as quickly as a mosquito, "Uncle..."
Wang Defa looked helpless when he saw this. He looked at Chu Tian and apologized, "Cousin Chu Tian, please don't mind. Yanfang was not like this before..."
Chu Tian knew that people’s temperaments would change when they were stimulated, so he said nonchalantly, “It’s okay. We’re not familiar with each other yet. It will be fine once we get familiar with each other.”
Having said that, regardless of his objection, she took the package from behind him and walked towards the tricycle, saying, "Let's go, let's take the tricycle back. Grandma has already started preparing dinner at home..."
After dinner, Chu Tian saw that Wang Yanfang looked tired, so he looked at Yao Xiujuan and Xinxin. Yao Xiujuan and Xinxin understood immediately and both walked forward to speak softly to Wang Yanfang.
"Yanfang, will your aunt take you to rest?"
"Sister Yanfang..."
Wang Yanfang looked at Wang Defa and saw him nod at her, so she stood up and followed Yao Xiujuan and Xinxin.
Seeing this, Lele also stood up and ran after him.
When Old Lady Chu saw the two sisters Yao Xiujuan and Xinxin Lele taking Wang Yanfang to the house that had been cleaned up in advance, she frowned.
"How did Yanfang change..."
She had always thought that he might just become less talkative, but she didn't expect it to be so serious that he couldn't even look people in the eye...
Wang Defa sighed and said, "It's even worse back home. She screams if anyone gets close to her... When I brought her here, I was worried about what to do if she goes crazy on the way. I even planned to tie her up with a rope if she runs around like crazy..."
"Maybe she knew she was leaving her hometown full of rumors, so she was very quiet along the way. She didn't dare to look at anyone or speak..."
"how so···"
"It's just damn it. Why blame Yanfang for your own bad luck?"
Old Mrs. Chu was immediately heartbroken. Although Wang Yanfang's surname was not Chu, she was the descendant of her eldest daughter, so she loved her very much when she was in her hometown.
Wang Defa lowered his head and said nothing after hearing this. Chu Tian held Mrs. Chu's hand and said softly, "Grandma, don't worry. We have Lele, the happy fruit in our family. With her around, she will be able to pull Yanfang out of her trough sooner or later."
"Um."
When Mrs. Chu heard this, she thought of Lele's personality and nodded.
There was still work to do in his hometown, so Wang Defa was taken by Old Mrs. Chu to the brigade to visit Uncle Chu and Uncle Chu's family, and then hurriedly bought tickets to go back.
Chu Tian and Chu Min sent him to the train station. "Defa, as you can see, my second brother and I are both doing business now. There are more and more people doing business outside. If you have any ideas in your hometown, you can also start some small business. Even if you don't have the capital at the beginning, you can sell some crops from the vegetable garden at home to accumulate funds..."
Chu Min continued, "By the way, if you want to sell Xinjiang raisins, red dates, milk lumps, etc., you can write to us and we will find the source for you and mail it back to you..."
During the few days Wang Defa stayed in Xinjiang, he saw the good business of Chu Tian and Chu Min, and also saw the people at the morning and evening markets. He found that many of them were selling their own crops, so he was tempted. So when he heard what Chu Tian and Chu Min said, he immediately nodded in response.
"Thank you, cousins. I will discuss this with my eldest brother when I get back..."
Chu Tianxiao and Chu Min handed him the packages in their hands. "This is a little gift from us. Please take it back and give it to your aunt and cousin..."
Wang Defa quickly refused, "No, no, I've been eating and living at your expense lately, how can I have the nerve to ask for anything? Besides, I was already given something at my eldest and second uncle's house yesterday..."
Chu Min smiled and said, "Cousin, this is from Chu Tian, my elder brother and I for my aunt and younger aunt, so don't refuse..."
Chu Tian nodded in agreement. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the staff on the platform urging people to get on the train. He urged them, "Okay, it's leaving soon, why don't you get on? You know my home address anyway, so if you have any questions, just write to us or send us a telegram..."
After saying that, Chu Tian and Chu Min took several steps back.
Wang Defa had no choice but to say goodbye to them with his bags and got on the train at the urging of the conductor. Chu Tian and Chu Min watched the train gradually drive away before turning around and walking out of the train station.
Sitting on the tricycle, Chu Min asked curiously, "Little brother, how much did you buy this tricycle?"
Chu Tian glanced sideways at Chu Min who was riding a bicycle, and asked with a smile, "Does Second Brother want it?"
Chu Min nodded. "If the price is right, I really want to buy one. I think it's more convenient than a bicycle for transporting goods."
"By the way, how much did you buy that TV? My kids are so jealous of it. Every day after school they skip their homework and run to your house to watch TV..."
Chu Tian thought for a moment and said, "The tricycle, including transportation, probably cost about 460 yuan!"
"It depends on the size and whether you buy a black and white TV. Black and white is cheaper, color is more expensive. The 14-inch color TV we put on the first floor, plus the antenna and shipping costs, cost over 1,300..."
After a pause, he continued, "This is because I'm familiar with the other party, so I offered the lowest price. The price they sold to outsiders before, like a tricycle, was at least over 500 yuan, and a 14-inch TV was sold for over 1,600 yuan..."
