Chapter 1269 Joint Sales
However, Ye Yuran understood it, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "The moisture is not small. When we came in, did you pay attention to the Chen family's yard?"
Zhu San began to recall.
At first, he only noticed that the Chen family's yard was indeed quite big, but now that his mother mentioned it, he realized that the Chen family's yard was not only big, but also seemed to be well-kept.
If it were an ordinary family, it would be no problem to build such a big yard, but Uncle Chen just said before - my brothers are "poor".
But the furnishings in the yard have nothing to do with poverty. At most, they are a little less affluent.
Thinking of this, Zhu San nodded and said, "Yeah."
"What do you think?" After Ye Yuran finished speaking, he blew on the noodles and ate them slowly.
Zhu San said: "Either their standard of 'poor' is different from ours, or someone is lying."
Ye Yuran raised his eyebrows: "The analysis is correct."
Zhu San didn't expect that his mother would say such a thing, and he found it both funny and heartwarming.
Of course, this kind of heart-warming made him realize that even if it was just a simple compliment, as long as it came from his mother, he would be very happy!
The corners of his mouth couldn't help but slightly raise.
"If that's the case, then why does mother still want to rent their house?" Zhu San asked his doubts.
Ye Yuran smiled and said, "This yard is quite comfortable and the price is right. Why not rent it?"
"Mom, I'm serious."
"I'm serious too." Ye Yuran said in a relaxed tone, took another bite of noodles, and praised the Chen family's craftsmanship. Although it was a little worse than Zhu Si's, it was still pretty good.
"Mom!" Zhu San was a little helpless.
Zhu Qi, who was eating noodles, observed his mother and third brother with his eyes while eating noodles, and did not intend to participate in the "dialogue" between them.
No way, he seemed to be able to understand what they were saying, but it was a bit difficult for him to say a word about Zi Chou Yin Mao.
Such controversial topics have never been his area of expertise.
"The tooth man is Uncle Chen. Do you really think that if they really want to take advantage of us, they can escape by renting another house?" Ye Yuran asked.
Zhu San really couldn't answer this, because he found that his mother was quite right.
"We have just arrived in Pushou City. We are not familiar with the place. It is normal for someone to have ideas about us. Instead of choosing someone who doesn't know the details, it is better to stay under their noses. Maybe we can get the advantage first.
, figure out what’s going on.”
Zhu San thought for a moment and felt that his mother was right.
However, he also remembered one thing: "Mom, you haven't answered me yet about that shopkeeper Gao."
"Oh, what's the problem?"
"Let me ask you, did you know what Shopkeeper Gao was planning?"
Ye Yuran took a sip of noodle soup and said: "It's not too early, I just feel that being courteous for nothing is either cheating or stealing. Besides, if he transports his goods, we will ride in our carriage and we won't have any interactions in the future.
There is no need to have a deep friendship, just be careful and careful."
Zhu San: "..."
——So, he thought so much along the way and thought his mother was so "far-sighted", but this is the result?
"Brother Bao has also said before that this team is a private team of a high-ranking family, but look at the boss, how does he look like he is a servant? If you don't know the details, you will think that the team is
His..." Ye Yuran continued, "
He is too high-profile, either because his boss is too sharp or too ambitious. For our Zhu family, what we need now is the word 'low-key'. Regardless of whether shopkeeper Gao has any ideas, we are not suitable to follow him.
Make him a friend."
Zhu San understood this time. His mother felt that the other party was too "high-profile" and a bit eye-catching.
The Zhu family was afraid that if they got to know each other closely, they would be in trouble in the future, so they wanted to stay away from each other.
But when I think about it, the style of that shopkeeper Gao is really not very likable, and he seems to be a little too quick to follow the wind.
"In the future, when you come into contact with more people, you will slowly know which people are worthy of close friendship and which people can only be kept at a respectful distance." Ye Yuran raised her eyes, looked into Zhu San's eyes, and said, "I would rather suffer some losses.
Don't offend others at will, especially villains. Because you never know when a villain will bite you."
"Yes, I understand, mother."
"Okay, eat quickly, the noodles are getting cold."
…
After the three of them finished eating the noodles, they didn't really wait for the Chen family to come and collect them.
Although people said that, Ye Yuran didn't want to treat others as "servants" as a matter of course.
I poured some water, washed the bowl, picked out a pack of dried sweet potatoes from the food I brought home, and put them into the basket together.
Ye Yuran asked Zhu San and Zhu Qi to continue cleaning up the house, while he went to the front yard to return the basket.
From the backyard to the front yard, you need to turn a corner and pass through a moon gate.
On both sides of the Moon Gate, the Chen family also planted an osmanthus tree.
It is said that osmanthus flowers are fragrant in August. Although it is not yet their blooming season, you can fully imagine what the scenery will be like in two months.
There is also a particularly tall banyan tree planted in the front yard. It should have been there before the house was built. The Chen family kept it and built a stone table underneath it, surrounded by a circle of stone benches.
Even if it is not a wealthy family, there are still some simple carvings of auspicious clouds vaguely visible on the stone table and benches.
There were two half-year-old children arguing there, seemingly unhappy about winning or losing in Go.
Mrs. Chen heard the commotion and came out with her sleeves rolled up to say a few words to them.
"Hmph! It's obvious that he is cheating, mother, why don't you tell him?" the older one said.
"Oh, he's younger than you, isn't it right for you to give in to him? Dachuan, apologize to Xiaochuan." Mrs. Chen said.
Chen Dachuan, who was named, became even more unhappy: "You know how to protect him. Is he your son, or am I your son?"
He was so angry that he stood up and ran away.
"Cousin, please wait for me..." Chen Xiaochuan saw that he had run away and quickly chased after him.
Mrs. Chen stood there, angry and helpless: "You are such a big child, why are you so ignorant?"
——She is the eldest aunt. She wants to protect her son. If the news reaches the ears of her mother-in-law, she still doesn’t think she is bullying the nephew in the next room?
——Isn’t she doing this just to protect him?
——She has already "scolded" her. Even if her mother-in-law finds out afterwards, she won't blame Dachuan for "bullying" her younger brother. She will only say that Xiaochuan doesn't understand.
It was just returning a bowl. Ye Yuran was really a little embarrassed when he encountered this kind of household chores when he turned a corner.
"Ahem!" She coughed twice and shouted proactively, "Daughter-in-law Chen, are you there? Just in time, I came over to return your bowls and baskets."
Mrs. Chen panicked and turned around quickly.
She was a little unsure. Did Aunt Zhu see it or not?
"Oh, return the basket..." She could only say with some embarrassment, "Aunt Zhu, you are right, just leave it there after you eat it. I will pick it up later, and I will ask you to go there in person.
