Chapter 328 Whose House Do You Want to Find?
Tan Chen naturally had no objection to this. Even if his wife didn't mention it, he would have said so.
After returning home, Shang Ruoting gave Old Lady Shang three hundred yuan.
"Grandma, these are for you."
Old Mrs. Shang looked at the huge amount of money in front of her and felt a little confused.
"Tingting, grandma has enough food and drink every day, why do you need money?"
Shang Ruoting coquettishly stuffed the money into Old Lady Shang's arms: "Grandma, this is the money I earned from selling roast chicken and roast duck."
Old Mrs. Shang refused to accept it: "I don't have any money to spend, so you can keep it yourself!"
There was no reason for Shang Ruoting to take back the money she had given away, so no matter how Old Lady Shang refused, she insisted on giving it to her.
Old Mrs. Shang had no choice but to carefully put the money away.
This was the first time the old man had so much money in so many years. He was so excited that he almost cried.
Seeing her grandmother getting a little agitated, Shang Ruoting was afraid she might cry, so she quickly used her tried-and-true trick, saying she was hungry, and then started ordering food...
Sure enough, when Mrs. Shang heard that her granddaughter wanted to eat delicious food, she immediately forgot her sadness and got up to go to the kitchen to busy herself.
Before dark, Tan Chen contacted those who were going to work in the city together and prepared to set off early the next morning.
The woman who cooks has also been found. She is the sister-in-law recommended by Aunt Chen Si.
The next morning, Tan Chen took his men and left Sihe Village. According to his plan, he arranged things there and came back, and then went back the next day to check.
He couldn't bear to let such a sweet-smelling wife stay alone in the empty room...
Tan Chen went to the city to help Zhou Ergu build a house, and Shang Ruoting continued to make roast chicken and roast duck at home with Old Lady Shang. This time, without Tan Chen's help pretending to deliver the goods, Shang Ruoting could only take some time in the afternoon to go for a walk outside.
On the third day after Tan Chen left, Shang Ruoting prepared to go out in the afternoon as usual, pretending to deliver goods. At the same time, she was thinking that Tan Chen should be back today. He had worked hard outside for several days, so she wanted to prepare some delicious food for him.
Just when Shang Ruoting had finished strolling outside and brought some food back to the village, she saw a military jeep parked at the entrance of the village.
The young driver was a soldier. He got out of the car first and then opened the back door. A middle-aged man and woman who looked about 30 got out of the car.
The man was tall and slender, wearing a neat military uniform. He stood there as straight as a pine tree. At first glance, his posture was somewhat similar to Tan Chen's. Perhaps because they both came from a military background, Shang Ruoting didn't think much about it.
The woman was also dressed very decently, wearing a short-sleeved floral dacron shirt, army green pants with the trouser line pressed straight, and her short hair was combed meticulously, giving people a feeling that she was not to be neglected.
The two looked around and saw a few women chatting under an old tree at the entrance of the village. They were also looking towards them.
Sihe Village has never lacked people with good reputations. When they saw the newcomer, they saw that he looked very impressive and wondered where this important person came from, so they shamelessly stepped forward to say hello.
"Comrades, why are you here?"
Tan Shaowen and Jiang Ping had originally wanted to ask someone about this, and when they heard someone ask, Jiang Ping took the initiative to ask, "Hello, comrade, is this Sihe Village?"
When the village woman saw such a respectable person talking to her, she immediately felt proud.
"This is Sihe Village. I've lived here my whole life. I'll take you there if you want to find someone's house."
Jiang Ping showed a warm smile, and even though she was a bit older, she couldn't hide her elegant temperament.
"Comrade, does Tan Mingshan live here?"
When the village woman saw the visitor asking about Tan Mingshan's family, her expression changed slightly.
You know, there have been a lot of troubles in Tan Mingshan's family recently. First, he kicked the blind Tan Chen out of the house, then Tan Kai went to Tan Chen's house to steal things and was bitten by a wild boar, and Zou Meihua broke off relations with Tan Chen.
And recently, the villagers often heard Zou Meihua cursing at Tan Mingshan...
Seeing that the village woman had not answered for a long time, the middle-aged woman thought that they had looked in the wrong place again. Just when disappointment appeared on her face, the village woman spoke.
"His home is in the center of the village. I'll take you there."
Seeing someone leading the way, Jiang Ping quickly asked the driver to take out two boiled eggs from the car and give them to the other party as a thank you gift.
The village woman didn't expect that the visitor would be so generous. She just showed her the way, but the visitor actually gave her two eggs.
Immediately ran to the front to lead the way.
Seeing this, the women who were chatting under the old tree also followed. They all wanted to see what kind of remarkable person had come to the Tan family and why they were so generous.
