When Lu Lin went to the countryside to collect wild berries, Mrs. Chen went to see it from afar. When she saw Zhang Rui, the old lady became a little angry.
Before, Mrs. Chen and the old man went to the son-in-law's house to ask for money, but they were scared back by the sharp knife Zhang and lost face. The old lady hated this son-in-law very much, and even hated Zhang Rui.
Seeing that her grandson and Lu Lin got mixed up, the old lady felt that this daughter and that bastard Chen Xiaomi were on the same team, and they were here to beat her.
Mrs. Chen sat on the kang, and said sullenly: "This is a married daughter after all, the water that was thrown out! I didn't expect Chun'er to be so cruel.
Mr. Chen is also a little depressed. Mr. Chen still hopes that his daughter can share some of Chen Jing's troubles.
If Lin Chun'er married an ordinary person, Lin Chun'er would definitely bleed a little if the two elders went up to make a fuss, but Lin Chun'er married a butcher, and the Chen family's two elders were scared back immediately.
Lu Lin picked up the wild berries and went back to town. The thoughts of the Chen family didn't affect Lu Lin at all.
As soon as Chen Mai came home, he found Chen Xiaomi Xianbao.
"Brother, look, there is a snake."
"That's right, it's a big snake, and it looks very fat!" Unlike Lu Lin, Chen Xiaomi is still very face-saving.
Chen Xiaomi spent a period of time in the mountains, often able to catch snakes.
If Chen Xiaomi catches a snake, the three brothers will eat grilled snake meat in the mountains. Therefore, in Chen Xiaomai's eyes, snakes are no different from chickens and ducks, they are all edible.
Chen Xiaomai tilted his head and said, "I'll show Brother Lin, but he won't even look at it. Qin Ming said that Brother Lin is afraid of snakes. Brother Lin is so powerful, would he be afraid of snakes?"
Chen Xiaomi: "..." Lu Lin must be afraid of snakes. When he encountered a snake before, he had to cut off the snake's head and repeatedly confirmed that the snake was dead before he dared to approach it.
Chen Xiaomi rubbed his nose and said, "You Brother Lin don't like this thing, so if you catch this thing in the future, you don't have to show it to Brother Lin."
Chen Xiaomai tilted his head and said, "It turns out that Brother Lin is really afraid of snakes. I didn't expect Brother Lin to be so useless."
Chen Xiaomi: "..."
Lu Lin was busy pulling a large cart of wild berries into the yard, completely unaware that his tall and mighty image in Chen Mai's heart had collapsed. Chen Xiaomi came out, looked at the wild berries in the yard, frowned, and said: : "Isn't that too much!"
Lu Lin nodded and said, "Yeah, so it's best to deal with it quickly." Those that can't be dealt with can only be put in the canteen first. "I'm afraid there aren't enough jars for jam. Go and buy some."
Chen Xiaomi replied without thinking, "Okay."
Zhang Rui and Qin Ming were sitting in the yard washing wild berries, and Chen Xiaocai was also washing, eating while washing...
Zhang Rui said with some headaches: "Boss, after the wild berries are washed, they are even more difficult to store!"
Qin Ming glanced at Zhang Rui and said, "Don't worry, Brother Lu can sell them all."
Qin Ming blindly worships Lu Lin. Ever since Lu Lin sold a doll for dozens of taels of silver, or even earlier, Qin Ming has admired Lu Lin's five bodies. From Qin Ming's point of view, what does Lu Lin do? All are right. Lu Lin would never do business at a loss.
Lu Lin and Chen Xiaomi got into the kitchen and drove everyone else out.
Lu Lin made a batch of jams before, and the sugar in the canteen was almost used up. Now the sugar is bought by Lu Lin separately. As a result, the production cost has been greatly increased.
Chen Xiaomi looked at several baskets of quickly washed wild berries, and said, "There are really a lot of them. It's not easy to sell them all at once!"
Lu Lin nodded, and said, "That's right, it will be troublesome if you hold so many wild berries in your hands. You can send a batch to Liu Town for sale."
"Let's make jam first." Chen Xiaomi said.
Chen Xiaomi licked her lips. It was a long time ago when Lu Lin made jam last time. When I think about it, I really miss it.
Lu Lin nodded and said, "Okay."
Lu Lin poured a lot of wild berries into the pot, and Chen Xiaomi helped watch the fire.
After the jam was made, Lu Lin took the jam directly to the store to sell, a bottle of one tael of silver.
There is also a discount, if you buy more than three taels of silver in the store, you can get a bottle of jam as a gift. Many people in Lin Town have eaten the jam that Lu Lin consigned and sold in the restaurant before, so the acceptance of jam is very high. As soon as the very high jam came out, many people came to buy it.
Because buying three taels of silver will give you jam, the sales of other things in the store quickly increased.
Yang Hengzhi saw the jams on sale in the shop, and waved his hand to buy eight bottles, "Brother Lu, you finally started selling jams again."
The old lady of the Yang family is a fan of jam. In the past, the jam sold in restaurants was very popular with the old lady.
Lu Lin sighed, and said, "There's no way. The business is deserted. If we don't develop some other products, we won't be able to solve the problem."
Yang Hengzhi smiled helplessly, and said: "Brother Lu is really guilty of saying this, everyone knows that this whole street belongs to your firm with the best business, and customers come like clouds."
Lu Lin smiled and said, "I'm overwhelmed."
Three days later, Lu Lin followed the convoy to deliver the goods. Afraid that the jam would be spoiled on the way, Lu Lin put a few empty jars in the car to hide from others, and put the real jam in the canteen to keep it fresh, and went to Liu Town with the team .
Chen Xiaocai was very excited when he saw Lu Lin coming.
"Brother Lin, did you bring jam?" Chen Xiaocai asked.
Lu Lin glanced at Chen Xiaocai, and asked suspiciously, "How do you know about the jam?"
"Because there is a lot of shopping in Lin Town, and there is a jam giving event, so yesterday someone asked me if there was jam for sale." Chen Xiaocai said.
Lu Lin raised his eyebrows, thinking to himself: I didn't expect that the news would spread so quickly, and it's all here.
"I brought you a batch. However, the shelf life of the jam is limited. If it can't be sold out within the time limit, don't keep it, just throw it away." Lu Lin urged.
Chen Xiaocai nodded and said, "I know."
Chen Xiaocai thought to himself: Throw it away? Lu Lin, who was at a loss, figured it out, and it couldn't be sold out within the time limit, so he naturally had to eat it.
Lu Chengyuchun failed the test again, and after a turmoil at home, he went to school again.
This Lu Chengyu has been studying for so many years, and the family counts on him to pass the examination as a scholar and shine in the family. Under such circumstances, as long as it is not difficult to a certain extent, the Lu family will not give up easily.
However, the Lu family is not the same as before. Although the old lady loves Lu Chengyu, the pocket money she gives him is less.
Having no money in the academy means losing face, and Lu Chengyu's temperament has become much more gloomy than before.
"Brother Lu, it's okay to see Brother Chen, do you know how he is?" Liu Feng asked.
Chen Jing often cheated money from the old lady of the Chen family, and went out to hang out with his friends in the school. Liu Feng was one of them. The disappearance of Chen Jing made Chen Jing's old friends feel a little regretful.
Lu Chengyu said lightly: "Something happened to his family, so he stopped reading."
Liu Feng sighed and said, "Is it really because of the usury he borrowed before?"
Chen Jing had also asked Liu Feng to borrow money before, but Liu Feng and Chen Jing were just good friends, so when they really wanted to borrow money, they naturally avoided it.
Lu Chengyu nodded and said, "Not bad."
Lu Chengyu originally thought that Chen Jing was quite annoying, but Chen Jing suddenly stopped learning, and there was no one in the village to put him at the bottom, so Lu Chengyu felt a little uneasy.
Liu Feng sighed, and said, "I didn't expect Chen Jing to give up so much. Brother Cheng Yu, I heard that you have a cousin named Lu Lin, who married into Chen Jing's twin cousin."
Hearing Liu Feng mention Lu Lin, Lu Chengyu couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable. Now when talking about Lu Lin in the village, most of them are praises, which makes Lu Chengyu very uncomfortable.
"There is an old boy in our village. He took the imperial examination all his life, but failed to be a scholar. This guy opened a school in the village to teach people to read and write. This bunch of students is very good, and not many people in the village go to it. I heard He said that last winter, he was invited to Huaxia Commercial Firm."
Lu Chengyu asked with some doubts: "Why did he go to Huaxia Commercial Bank?"
Liu Feng played with the folding fan in his hand, and said: "It seems to be enlightening some little devils in Huaxia Commercial Bank. According to the old boy, it is mainly for Chen Xiaocai and a little Shuang'er. A pair of children can learn to read together, isn't this nonsense?"
Lu Chengyu said suspiciously: "Xiao Shuang'er, are you a fool?"
Liu Feng shook his head, and said: "I heard that there is a foolish one, but that one is a spectator, and often slips out after hearing half of it. There is a twin, who seems to be engaged to the master's boy, so, just Let's grow together."
Lu Chengyu immediately thought of Shen Chi. For a while, many people in the village were rumoring that Shen Chi had an affair with Chen Xiaolai. Seeing that Shen Chi's reputation was going to be ruined, it turned out that Chen Xiaocai and Shen Chi were really engaged. It is said that Many girls in the village were envious of Shen Chi's fortune. A few years ago, Lu Chengyu never imagined that Chen Xiaolai, who had a mother and no mother, could become a hot commodity.
Liu Feng shook his head and said, "Well, what do you need to know to read? The old boy said that the master's family is too incomprehensible, but they have given you a lot of Shuxiu, so you have to resign yourself to it. Cheng Yu, you Is my brother rich? He still has money, so please ask someone to teach a twin.”
Lu Chengyu said sullenly: "I don't know either, I just heard that he works for a big boss in Huaxia Commercial Bank, and the big boss hasn't come back for a long time."
Lu Chengyu thought to himself: Lu Lin and Chen Xiaomi really should have taken kickbacks a lot, otherwise, how could Lu Lin bother with so many things? Lu Chengyu couldn't help being a little surprised that Lu Lin actually found someone to teach Chen Xiaocai how to read. .
Lu Chengyu has always been proud of being able to study, seeing Chen Xiaocai and Shen Chi receiving such treatment, he couldn't help feeling depressed.
Liu Feng said sourly: This Huaxia Commercial Firm should have earned a lot of money, and the boss behind the scenes is also big-hearted, so he actually gave it to a Shuang'er with confidence.
Lu Chengyu thought to himself: The rumors about Lu Lin taking kickbacks in this village have already spread like that, and the boss still doesn't show his face behind this scene, and he doesn't know what's going on.
I heard that Chen Xiaomi was raising sheep and children in the house, almost covering the sky with one hand! Shen Chi was sitting opposite Chen Xiaocai, eating jam, a look of distress flashed across his face.
"Shall we eat jam like this? This thing is very expensive!" Shen Chi said in a bit of a dilemma.
Chen Xiaocai waved his hand and said, "Eat, eat, Brother Lin said before he left, throw it away if you can't eat it, naturally you can't waste such a good thing casually."
Shen Chi said with some embarrassment: "Actually, if the price is lowered, it can be sold."
Chen Xiaocai shook his head and said, "It's not acceptable to lower the price. Brother Lin said that we are going to take the high-end route." What's more, Lu Lin didn't have much jam left behind, and even if the price wasn't lowered, it would soon be sold out. Well, when Chen Xiaocai said that to Shen Chi, he just hoped that Shen Chi would eat jam and not be burdened.
Shen Chi took a mouthful of jam, put it into his mouth, and said happily: "It's delicious."
Chen Xiaocai took a sip, and thought to himself: It's delicious, but it seems a bit too sweet. Chen Xiaocai was shocked when he found out that his own taste was approaching Lu Lin, a picky guy.
