Chapter 95 Why is she here?
Hua Daling didn't know that this news was very important to Chu Xuan.
"Aunt Hua, this is something we just need to keep between us. Don't tell anyone else. If you have the chance to find out the specific time she's going to Hai City, remember to tell me as soon as possible."
Hua Daling swore, "Don't worry! From now on, I will only tell you about Feng Chunhua. Let's go!"
"good."
After Chu Xuan sent her out, he said hello to his younger brother, packed a lunch box of boiled peanuts, and went to the village entrance to wait for the carriage.
I plan to go to town to find Uncle Long.
After a while, Uncle Qi drove over in a carriage and stopped.
More than a dozen villagers got off the carriage one after another.
After seeing Chu Xuan, they all took the initiative to say hello.
Chu Xuan responded with a smile.
Chu Xuan's reputation in the village has been getting better and better recently.
After all, Chu Xuan was half responsible for the village's grilled fish fillet factory.
Among them, some will invest, and some will work in factories, which can more or less increase their family income.
After watching everyone leave, Chu Xuan got into the carriage and said, "Master Qi, I'll hire a car."
Uncle Qi guessed that Chu Xuan might hire a car, so he didn't get off the carriage and replied kindly, "It's 15 cents to hire a car."
"no problem."
"Hold on tight." After Uncle Qi gave Chu Xuan his instructions, he immediately shouted to the horse, "Go!"
The horse broke into a trot.
At this moment, Feng Chunhua hurried over and wanted to jump into the carriage, "Old Man Qi, stop and take me to town! I have something urgent to do."
Uncle Qi didn't even turn his head. "Sorry, Chu Xuan has already hired a car. Go... Go! Go! Go!"
The horse understood that the owner was urging it to run faster, so it ran faster and faster.
Feng Chunhua put her hands on her hips and cursed from behind, "Old man Qi, just wait and see if I will ever ride in your carriage again! You old fool..."
After cursing, she muttered quietly, "Wait until I get a bicycle ticket, wait until I have a bicycle, I will envy you to death!"
I had no choice but to walk towards the town.
A few minutes later, a village tractor drove past her.
Feng Chunhua saw that the tractor driver was Liu Dapeng and hurriedly shouted, "Wait a minute! Give me a ride to town, I'll pay for the fare!"
Liu Dapeng had already recognized her and said, "I'm busy!"
Speed up and drive away.
He has no good feelings towards Feng Chunhua, and he will not help anyone who treats Chu Xuan badly.
Feng Chunhua stamped her feet in anger. "None of you give me face. Just wait, you will regret it later!"
About ten minutes later, Chu Xuan paid the taxi fare and walked towards Uncle Long's shop.
Uncle Qi didn't think much about it and thought Chu Xuan was just there to pay off his debt.
He drove the carriage to the place where he usually took work to wait for customers.
When Chu Xuan walked into Uncle Long's shop carrying a lunch box, he didn't see Uncle Long, only Xiao Huan.
"Brother Xiao, is Uncle Long here?"
Xiao Huan pointed to the backyard and responded cheerfully, "We're discussing a big deal in the back."
He poured Chu Xuan a cup of tea and handed her a plate of melon seeds.
"Thank you." Chu Xuan handed over the lunch box. "There are boiled peanuts in it. You and Uncle Long can try some."
Xiao Huan took it with a smile and opened the lunch box. "Is this the first crop of peanuts this year?"
"Yes."
Xiao Huan peeled them and ate a few. "They're so delicious! I'm taking advantage of Uncle Long today. Boiled peanuts are not something you can buy just by having money. To be honest, Uncle Long and I both like them. I remember your village can't grow peanuts. Tell me where you buy them. I'll buy a few dozen kilograms and cook them every day."
"You can just ask Liu Dapeng from our village. His uncle's family grows it. I don't know where exactly it comes from."
"Liu Dapeng? I know him. He's the tractor driver from your village. He's as skinny as a monkey. He drives his tractor through town two or three times a day. I'll meet him at the town entrance later."
"Even after you buy it, you can't eat it every day, otherwise your stomach won't be able to handle it."
"I know."
Xiao Huan continued to peel and eat peanuts.
Chu Xuan grabbed a handful of melon seeds and started cracking them. There was a spittoon at his feet, and he threw the melon seed shells into it accurately.
Take a few sips of tea from time to time and have a refill.
After waiting for about an hour, Uncle Long finally came over.
Chu Xuan stood up and called softly, "Uncle Long."
Uncle Long said with a loving look, "Xiao Xuan is here, come and sit down!"
Xiao Huan also stood up and stuffed a handful of peanuts into Uncle Long's hands. "Chu Xuan brought these, they're delicious! Did the guests leave through the back door?"
Uncle Long found a chair and sat down, biting the shells of the peanuts with his teeth as he responded, "That's right. We made a net profit of 10,000 yuan on this order today. He'll come to pick up the goods tonight."
He didn't avoid Chu Xuan at all.
Xiao Huan was very happy. "Okay, I'll come over when the time comes. I'll go first, you guys chat."
He grabbed two handfuls of peanuts, put them in his pocket, and ran out the door.
I was afraid that if I ran too slowly, Uncle Long would snatch the peanuts away.
Uncle Long said helplessly, "This kid!"
Keep eating peanuts.
After a while, he began to reminisce about the good old days. "These fresh peanuts are delicious! When I was little, my family was poor and I craved peanuts. I begged my grandfather to buy me half a pound of peanuts. After cooking them, I couldn't bear to even throw away the shells. I ate the tender shells directly and the hard shells in my mouth until they were tasteless before I was willing to feed them to the pigs."
Chu Xuan couldn't help but say, "Uncle Long, you're happier than me. My younger brother and I only had boiled peanuts this year. Even when my parents were with us, we couldn't have them because Feng Chunhua had the final say and controlled all the family money. My younger brother and I didn't want to embarrass our parents, so no matter how much we wanted to eat, we wouldn't tell them."
"You and your brother were really stupid before. You should have said what you wanted to say. Your parents are so busy every day that it's hard for them to guess, and they don't have that much time to guess."
"yes!"
"Is there something important that you came to see me today?"
"Yes, I heard that Feng Chunhua is going to Hai City next month, but I haven't found out the exact time yet. I'll tell you as soon as I find out."
"Okay. I'll send someone to Hai City. Who knows, we might find something."
"Uncle Long, did you know that my mother is sick?"
Uncle Long stood up, and the chair behind him fell to the ground. He didn't bother to eat the peanuts or to fix the chair. "I don't know! Why didn't your mother tell me? I said she promised to mail me the game, but she hasn't sent it yet. Maybe something happened? Tell me the details."
"I just learned that my mother left because she was seriously ill and didn't want to burden me and my younger brother. Two years ago, she had surgery, and a few days ago she had another surgery abroad. In three months, my mother should be fully recovered and will come back to tell me the details in person."
"Is the medical fee enough? Which country is she in? I want to go see her!"
"The medical expenses are enough, but I don't know which country it is from. Before I could ask Uncle Wu, he had something to do and hung up. I will definitely ask next time."
"Okay! You must tell me."
"Yes."
They chatted for another ten minutes before Chu Xuan said goodbye and left.
After walking a distance, I passed by Feng Chunhua.
Feng Chunhua glared at her fiercely, said nothing, and walked towards Uncle Long's shop.
Chu Xuan wondered what this old woman wanted to see Uncle Long about?
Are you going to buy jade?
Or are they here to sow discord?
Chu Xuan pretended to leave and returned by a detour.
Let’s see what Feng Chunhua wants to do!
