Chapter 8 Heimlich Maneuver



Chen Yigen held a piece of meat in his right hand, touched Chen Dong's head with his left hand and said:

"All of this must have been taught by your father. You should study medicine with your elder sister and elder brother and become an excellent doctor."

"Well, I'll listen to Fourth Grandpa and become a good doctor in the future. But unfortunately..."

Chen Guoqing asked curiously, "Xiaodong, what are you regretting?"

Chen Dong said cautiously, "It's a pity that we only ordered five dishes today. It would have been better if we ordered ten. We could have gotten a refund in the end anyway."

"Hahaha……"

Chen Yigen, Chen Guoqing, Chen Xia and Chen Qiu all burst into laughter.

Chen Qiu added, "Who says it's not true? The braised pork just now tasted really good."

Since it is rare for everyone to come to the "big city", Chen Xia naturally wants to buy more things to take back.

Especially my younger brothers and sisters, now that we have 1,000 yuan as a base and the family’s financial crisis has been resolved, it’s time to buy them some school supplies.

So Chen Qiu and Chen Dong let themselves go and bought a lot of pencils, erasers, books, and a schoolbag each at the supply and marketing cooperative.

Chen Yigen's mouth twitched and his blood pressure began to rise again.

Chen Xia looked at the worn-out clothes on himself, Chen Qiu and Chen Dong, and waved his hand again, "Buy, buy ready-made clothes and pants directly."

Although buying cloth and having someone make clothes for you can save some money, how good are the tailoring skills of rural aunties?

Chen Xia was not confident, so it would be best to just buy clothes and pants.

Chen Qiu and Chen Dong shouted "Long live brother" while constantly signaling to the teller at the supply and marketing cooperative which clothes they wanted to try. Chen Yigen's hand touched his chest again.

Chen Xia’s clothes selection is very simple, a white shirt, a pair of navy blue pants, and a pair of sports cloth shoes will be enough.

It’s just that the trouser legs in this era are so baggy that he feels a little uncomfortable with it.

Chen Yigen and Chen Guoqing watched the three siblings of the Chen family picking up things in the supply and marketing cooperative as if they were free.

Especially when he saw Chen Xia swaying in front of the appliance cabinet and asking about the prices of electric fans and radios, Chen Yigen's patience had reached its limit.

"You bastard, are you planning to empty out the supply and marketing cooperative? What are you looking at?"

Chen Xia said innocently, "It's too hot. I want to buy an electric fan. I'll be bored at night and listen to the radio."

"Hot, hot, hot! How could you possibly have acquired so many bourgeois ideas at such a young age? Do you know how much this electric fan radio costs?"

"I know. This Red Lantern brand radio is 65 yuan, and the West Lake brand all-aluminum electric fan is 190 yuan."

Chen Yigen looked at the frivolous brat in front of him speechlessly, wishing he could take off his shoes and beat him up again.

"Do you have industrial coupons? You can't buy these appliances just because you have money. Second brother, listen to Fourth Grandpa. We won't buy these things now. Let's wait until you get married, okay?"

Chen Xia turned around and looked at the electric fan with regret, and had no choice but to give up.

Of course, it was not because of Fourth Grandpa's persuasion, but mainly because he did not have any industrial coupons. If he had, he would definitely take these home appliances away today.

In such a hot summer, he could hide in the space hospital to cool down, but his younger brothers and sisters would be hot.

When they arrived in Ke Town in the morning, the five people came empty-handed.

When we returned home in the evening, we not only had rice and meat, but also got a job and a free lunch, so everyone was in a good mood.

Chen Xia sat on the back of Fourth Grandpa's car and sang at the top of his lungs:

"I want a life that blooms, like flying in the vast sky, like walking through the boundless wilderness, with the power to break free from everything..."

Chen Guoqing said with a grin, "Second brother, what kind of song are you singing? Why haven't I heard it before?"

"This is called the latest pop song. It's very popular in the capital and Shanghai."

"Brother, brother, can you sing another song? It's nice."

"Okay, listen. You are my little apple. I can never love you enough. Your rosy little face warms my heart and lights the fire of my life. Fire, fire, fire, fire..."

Chen Yigen laughed and scolded in front, "You dare to sing such a love song at such a young age? Be careful if someone hears you. It seems like it's time to find you a wife."

"Fourth Grandfather, the motherland has not yet been unified, how can I be sentimental? I'm not in the mood to find a wife."

"Hahaha……"

Five people and two cars rushed to Qingfeng Village in the sunset. Chen Yigen was very relieved. It seemed that the Chen family had hope again...
