Siheyuan: I just want to live

Chapter 253 Chatting with Sun Xiaojuan

Let’s not talk about Yan Fugui for now, and just talk about Chen Feng’s family. Chen Feng’s move of moving Jin Ming’s things to the next door did not cause any ripples.

After all, Jin Ming's household registration had already been moved out of Chen Feng's house and settled in the next door house, so Chen Feng moved Jin Ming's things next door. For Jin Ming, it was nothing more than changing the place to sleep.

Every day at mealtime, Jin Ming would still come to Chen Feng's room, but Chen Feng did not ask for the key to his house back, so Jin Ming still had one.

Naturally, Chen Feng also reserved a key for Jin Ming's room next door. Of course, Chen Feng would not enter Jin Ming's room unless necessary, and leaving a key was to facilitate Jin Ling to clean the room next door.

Ever since Mr. Xu hurriedly left the courtyard last time, he was like a yellow crane that never returned. It seemed that he had made up his mind not to come back to look for Chen Feng. It seemed that he had really given up the two houses in this courtyard.

Faced with this situation, Chen Feng was naturally very happy, and spent his time like this day after day until the May Day holiday came.

As the May Day holiday approaches, Chen Feng is once again busy. He not only has to carefully prepare the pork to be sent to the street office, but also has to worry about the pork share required by the police station, and he must not forget the share for his own unit - the waste recycling station.

There is no doubt that among these matters, the most important and numerous are those related to the steel plant. As early as the beginning of April, Hou Debang personally visited Chen Feng.

To be honest, Chen Feng felt quite confused about this: For a large-scale enterprise like a steel plant, it stands to reason that all kinds of materials allocated by superiors should be quite sufficient.

But why did Director Hou buy so much rabbit meat from him every month? Could it be that they would feel unhappy if the factory's funds were not spent?

However, if it is really necessary to spend this money, then why not use it to increase the output of the factory? After all, increasing production capacity is crucial to the development of steel plants and can bring more economic and social benefits.

However, the act of purchasing rabbit meat does not seem to have really promoted the long-term progress of the factory. Perhaps there are some unknown reasons or considerations behind this...

It seems that spending money on knife handles has become a common practice. Fortunately, this steel mill also knows how to buy rabbit meat to reward the workers, which is much better than those schools that installed elevators and repaired gates in the cafeteria just for the sake of appearance!

On the 28th, after completing the transaction with Director Hou, he rested outside the city for a day. The next morning, Chen Feng still kept time and delivered the items that had been prepared to the waste recycling station.

After all, the items in these scrap yards must not be delivered too early, otherwise Li Guotao will definitely think that it is easy for him to purchase materials, and he may even have the idea of ​​adding extra work burden to him.

Therefore, whether it is food, various supplies or meat products, Chen Feng will grasp the time accurately and send them to the recycling station on time every time.

It was almost noon when Chen Feng finally arrived at the door of the scrap station, pulling a cart and panting.

Of course, don't get me wrong, it wasn't Chen Feng who was making the noise because he was tired, but the wild boar on Chen Feng's cart making the noise.

This time, there were not only wild boars on Chen Feng's cart, but also fifty chickens and roosters, and about fifty fish weighing three or four pounds.

As for the wild rabbits, there were none left. This time, all the wild rabbits were given to Director Hou by Chen Feng, and not a single adult one was left.

Chen Feng pulled the cart to the door of the warehouse, called Zhou Ping out to weigh the weight, and then took the list to the finance office to find Sun Xiaojuan.

After Chen Feng gave the bill to Sun Xiaojuan, Sun just took a look at it, then started writing the receipt and then paid the money.

Chen Feng signed his name on the receipt, then took the money and stuffed it into his schoolbag without counting it. Chen Feng believed that Sun Xiaojuan would not fool him with money.

After stuffing the money into his schoolbag, Chen Feng prepared to leave the finance office and pull the cart home.

"Chen Feng, don't leave yet, I have something to tell you!"

Chen Feng had just turned around and was about to leave when the crisp and urgent voice reached his ears. This sudden call made him pause, and a trace of doubt and curiosity surged in his heart.

Chen Feng slowly turned his head and his eyes fell on Sun Xiaohuo who was sitting behind the desk.

He thought to himself: Why did Sun Xiaojuan call me today? Is there something important?

Otherwise, with her usual temperament, she would not have rashly asked him to stay. Thinking of this, Chen Feng could not help but turn back to his desk.

When he got closer, Chen Feng looked at the beautiful woman in front of him, a faint smile appeared on his face, and he asked softly.

"Sister Sun, I wonder why you called me here? If there is anything I can help you with, just let me know."

When Chen Feng spoke, his words were full of humility.

However, Sun Xiaojuan did not answer Chen Feng's question immediately. She just gave Chen Feng a fierce look, as if she was somewhat dissatisfied with what he had just said.

Then, she opened her red lips slightly and said with a hint of resentment: "Humph, how dare I give orders to a busy man like you!"

After saying this, Sun Xiaojuan curled her lips slightly.

Hearing this, Chen Feng suddenly felt at a loss whether to laugh or cry. He scratched his head and responded with a wry smile.

"Sister Sun, you are joking. How can I say I am busy? Sister Sun, you have always been dignified, generous and considerate. Your behavior today really makes me confused."

Hearing this, Sun Xiaojuan raised the corners of her mouth slightly, looked at Chen Feng with a smile, and asked, "Why? Do I have to have something important when I call you? Can't I just chat with you about family matters and reminisce about the past?"

As he spoke, there was a barely perceptible cunning in his eyes.

When Chen Feng heard her words, he hurriedly said like a lackey, "Yes! Why not? Then where should we start talking, Sister Sun? How do we talk about our old relationship?"

When Sun Xiaojuan saw Chen Feng like this, she rolled her eyes at him again and said, "Look at you!"

After that, Sun Xiaojuan said to Chen Feng in a serious tone, "Okay, I won't argue with you anymore! I called you because I have something to tell you."

Chen Feng saw that Sun Xiaojuan's face had become serious, so he put away his playful smile and put on a serious expression.

If an outsider saw the two of them in such a serious state, they would think they were discussing some military or national affairs.

Sun Xiaojuan was the first to speak, "Chen Feng, I plan to send all the children of my relatives back to the countryside after July."

"Not only that, even the relatives in the countryside no longer help us!"

When Chen Feng heard what Sun Xiaojuan said, he didn't have any special feelings in his heart. After all, the child was not his own. He could send the child here and there as he pleased. It had nothing to do with him, so he didn't feel sorry for the child.

After understanding what Sun Xiaojuan meant, Chen Feng said, "In other words, after I deliver June's food to you, I won't have to deliver any more?"

After listening to Chen Feng's words, Sun Xiaojuan nodded and said, "Yes! You don't need to send any more after June's!"

"The situation in the countryside has improved a lot now, and I have helped them for several years. I don't want to help them anymore."

After hearing what Sun Xiaojuan said, Chen Feng still asked with some confusion, "Why did you wait until now? You should have ignored them a few years ago?"

Seeing Chen Feng asking this, Sun Xiaojuan sighed and said, "Isn't that my mother-in-law? She is so stubborn! She insisted on sending the children to school, saying that she couldn't let them be blind."

"She doesn't even think about it. The tuition for several children is more than ten yuan a month. How much do I earn a month?"

"Now that the kids are about to graduate from elementary school, I wonder what else she can say this time?"

"After they graduated, I sent them back to the countryside. I guess I'm not blind this time!"

When Sun Xiaojuan said these words, it was obvious that she was very resentful. Chen Feng thought about it and understood that Sun Xiaojuan's salary was not much.

Although Chen Feng supported her in food matters and she didn't have to worry about it, the tuition for so many children would cost more than twenty yuan a year.

What's more, there are tuition fees, notebooks and pencils, clothes and shoes every year, etc. Sun Xiaojuan's salary is really stretched.

Although he knew what was going on, Chen Feng, who had lived in the afterlife for a long time, still asked with some concern, "Sister Sun, those children are still so young. If you send them back, will they adapt to life in the countryside?"

When Sun Xiaojuan heard Chen Feng say this, she immediately rolled her eyes at him again, and then said in a bad tone, "You have to adapt to it even if you don't like it!"

"Otherwise, they will go to middle school in the second half of the year, and I don't have the money to support them."

"Why? From what you said, you want to provide for them?"

Hearing Sun Xiaojuan's slightly sarcastic words, Chen Feng immediately shook his head and said, "I have no relationship with them, so why should I support them in school?"

Seeing Chen Feng say this, Sun Xiaojuan curled her lips and said, "What relationship do I have with them? Anyway, this is my plan!"

Seeing that she had made up her mind, Chen Feng said, "Okay then! After the food is delivered in June, I won't leave any more food for you!"

After hearing what Chen Feng said, Sun Xiaojuan wanted to come over, but then she said, "No! You have to leave me some food!"

When Chen Feng heard her words, he was a little surprised, so he asked, "Don't you care about your relatives in the countryside? Why do you still need food?"

Seeing Chen Feng asking this, Sun Xiaojuan said helplessly, "Little boy, don't you know that you have to eat four old men? My son is at an age when he can eat. Without food, how can I feed him?"

Seeing her say that, Chen Feng asked, "Then is it enough for me to give you 50 kilograms of food every month?"

After hearing what Chen Feng said, Sun Xiaojuan silently calculated in her heart, and then said, "Okay! That should be enough! If not, I'll ask you for more!"
