The Orphan's Counterattack in the 1970s

Chapter 19 Buying Furniture

"It's not your second daughter-in-law. She went around telling others that your little niece couldn't survive in the city, so she came back here to join you." Aunt Zhao is also very tired of her old best friend's second daughter-in-law. , Chen Lin is such an outstanding young man, how come he has such bad eyesight, but he just falls in love with this troublemaker.

"What is she thinking? Xiaolin and she have never met. To arrange her sister-in-law like this, she must be mentally ill!" Aunt Chen planned to go home at night and make Liu Xiaojuan look good. Xiaolin is so good. How did a person offend her?

"I heard that she was interested in your brother-in-law's new house. Maybe your niece came back and broke her dream." The last time Aunt Zhao heard someone say that Liu Xiaojuan was interested in Chen Dazhu's new house, she didn't believe it at that time. Now she somewhat believes it.

"What does my brother-in-law's house have to do with her? Our Xiaolin is looking for a son-in-law in the future." Aunt Chen is reluctant to let Chen Xiaolin get married. Her niece is delicate and weak. What should she do if she gets bullied after she gets married?

"Some people are just greedy and like to worry about things that don't belong to them. You have to be careful about your second daughter-in-law." Aunt Zhao knows people like Liu Xiaojuan very well.

"Let's see how I deal with her when I go back at night. If Chen Lin hadn't insisted on marrying her, how could I have found such a wife for Chen Lin." Aunt Chen knew that Aunt Zhao was reminding herself that she must deal with her when she went back at night. Dun, the second daughter-in-law, just doesn't know if her son also has this idea.

Chen Xiaolin didn't care what others said about her. She had just coaxed Grandpa Chen and Grandma Chen and sent them home. Now she has to go to Carpenter Liu's house to buy some furniture. There is no place to put anything at home.

There is only one carpenter in Daqingshan Village. Everyone calls him Old Man Liu. He used to work in a furniture factory in the city. Later, because the furniture factory closed down, he returned to Daqingshan Village to continue working as a carpenter.

Chen Xiaolin had been to Old Liu's home before. She remembered that Old Liu's eldest son Liu Jianguo and Chen Dazhu were childhood friends.

"Grandpa Liu, are you at home?" When Chen Xiaolin came to Old Liu's house, the door was open. Chen Xiaolin was not used to entering other people's homes casually.

"Who is it? I'm in the yard. Come in if you have something to say." Old man Liu was planing wood. He was too lazy to go out and see who was looking for him.

Chen Xiaolin heard Old Man Liu's voice and had to go in to find him.

"Grandpa Liu, I am Chen Xiaolin, Dazhu's daughter. I'm coming in to buy some furniture."

"Oh! It's Girl Lin! The furniture is in the utility room. Go and pick out whatever you want." Old man Liu also heard about the death of Chen Dazhu and his wife by enemy agents some time ago. For Chen Dazhu's only daughter, , he thought she was quite pitiful.

Chen Xiaolin opened the utility room that Old Man Liu mentioned and found that there was all kinds of furniture in it.

Chen Xiaolin picked a wardrobe, two kang cabinets, a dining table, four chairs, a large desk, a storage rack, a cupboard, a bathtub, two buckets, and two wooden basins.

I saw dustpans and backpacks, so I ordered five of each.

"You go back first! When your uncle Jianguo comes back later, I will ask him to help you move there." Old man Liu saw that Chen Xiaolin was small, so he had no intention of letting her move the furniture by herself.

"Thank you, Grandpa Liu and Uncle Liu. I'll go back and pack my things first." Since she doesn't have to move the furniture herself, Chen Xiaolin plans to go to the mountain to pick up some firewood. She doesn't even have firewood to boil water at night!

Chen Xiaolin walked directly to the mountain after coming out of Carpenter Liu's house.

It was quite cool in the mountains in the afternoon. Chen Xiaolin really liked the continuous mountains. There must be a lot of game and mountain products in such a big mountain.

It was too late today, and Chen Xiaolin had no intention of going into the mountains, so she picked up two bundles of dry branches at the foot of the mountain and went back.

She didn't bring a hatchet with her when she came out today, so it was not easy to cut dry firewood. These branches were not resistant to burning and could only be used to boil water for cooking. If you want to burn a kang in winter, tree trunks are better.

Chen Mu came to see Chen Xiaolin as soon as he got off work today. Unexpectedly, when he arrived at his cousin's house, he found that General Tie was guarding the door, but he didn't know where he was.

Seeing that it was getting dark, Chen Mu was planning to go find her, and then he saw her cousin coming back dragging two bundles of firewood.

"Xiao Lin, if you don't have firewood, just go to my house and get it. Why do you go to the mountains to pick it up yourself?"

"Brother, why are you here! I don't have time on my own! How could I go over and take what you worked so hard to pick up?" Chen Xiaolin felt that there was no need to bother others with small things like collecting firewood. Since she planned to go back to the countryside, she could take care of it herself. Be good to yourself.

"Xiao Lin, why are you so polite to us?" Chen Mu was a little depressed. He felt that his cousin was too polite to his family.

"Brother, I can't rely on you for everything. It makes me look useless. Don't worry! If I really need it, I will tell you." Chen Xiaolin thinks that favors should be used if possible. If you bother others with everything, you will soon be bored by them.

Xiao Lin, sometimes you don't need to be so strong. Your uncle and brothers are taking care of everything!" Chen Mu discovered for the first time that his cousin turned out to be so strong. The weak and weak sister he used to have changed. . well! It seems that the death of my uncle and aunt is really a big blow to my cousin!

"I have grown up and I can support myself." It's not that Chen Xiaolin is stronger, it's just that she thinks she has money and ability, so why should she rely on her uncle's family like a dragster?

"Okay! You open the door first, and I'll help you put the firewood in the kitchen. We'll go over to eat together later." Chen Mu held a bundle of firewood in each hand, waiting for Chen Xiaolin to open the door for him. .

When Chen Mu took Chen Xiaolin back to the next door, Grandma Chen and Aunt Chen had already prepared the meal.

"Dad, is this aunt?" Goudan and Shitou were having fun in the yard, and then they saw their father walking in with a beautiful little girl.

"Dad." When two-year-old Shitou saw Chen Mu coming back, he staggered over and ran over to hug his thigh.

"Goudan, you take your brother and play while I go in with your aunt to find your great-grandfather and his wife." Chen Mu finally took off the pendant from his leg.

"Are you my aunt?" Seeing that his father didn't answer his question, Goudan came over and took Chen Xiaolin's hand.

"Yes! Here, these are the candies that my aunt brought back from Beijing." Chen Xiaolin took out a handful of White Rabbit toffee from her pocket and placed it on Goudan's hand.

"Auntie, I want candy." When Shitou saw that his brother had so much candy, he also ran over and stretched out his chubby hand.
