Cross-country exchange

As soon as Xia Yu said this, the grandmother and father of the Xia family looked at each other, put down what they were doing, and sat down. Xie Yun also slowly moved to Xia Yu's side, wanting to hear what his husband wanted to say. But I didn't pay much attention to it. Some were washing dishes on the stove, some went to embroider clothes in the inner room, and some ran outside to play. This was the first time Xia Chun saw Xia Yu in such a formal appearance, and felt a little novel, so he didn't leave. Just sit and listen.

Seeing that the main members of the family were all there, Xia Yu didn't beat around the bush, and went straight to the point, "Father, Grandma, I've been thinking about it for a while, and I want to open a shop in the county."

As soon as the words were finished, Xia Yu heard a lot of objections, everything seemed to be expected in advance, Xia Yu maintained a faint smile.

The grandmother of the Xia family was the first to disagree, but she didn't lose her temper, and said directly, "My boy, do you know how much it costs to open a store in the county?"

Just thinking about the money for that house would scare people to death, not to mention other things. Opening a store requires money and buying some other items. Anyway, it costs money.

The father of the Xia family was silent, and just sighed beside him, his temples had grown white hair, he seemed to be ten years old during this period, he had injured his psoas, and he couldn't go to the fields to do heavy work, let alone build a house The matter, the things in the house are messy now, he sees it in his eyes and is anxious in his heart.

The grandma of the Xia family saw that her boy was silent, and she was afraid of hurting his self-esteem, so she couldn't help persuading, "Boy, it's not grandma who is talking about you, but we'd better live our lives down-to-earth and wait until we have saved enough money." Money, let's consider where to open a store, do you think it will work?"

Xia Chun echoed from the side, "Little brother, it's not that the second brother doesn't support you, you just listen to grandma about this matter, don't mess with other things, live with Xiaoyun steadily, and have a baby." Let grandparents hug a grandson early."

How could this matter be involved in giving birth to a baby? It's really embarrassing.Xie Yun simply bowed his head and put his hands on the table to reduce his sense of existence.Although he didn't open his mouth, he felt that since Big Brother Xia had thought about it for a long time, he must have considered all aspects of things properly, but seeing the whole family sighing, he didn't want to talk too much, but at the end, he asked in a low voice , "Brother Xia, what kind of store are you going to open?"

In Xie Yun's heart, Xia Yu regards wood carving as a treasure. If he plans to open a shop in the county, he will probably open a shop related to wood?

Xia Yu didn't expect the little thing to ask this question suddenly, so he said, "I want to open a special restaurant."

At the beginning, Xia Yu also wanted to open a shop related to art, but with his temperament, he would probably run the shop as dull and featureless as his temperament.Coupled with his observation for a period of time, he found that ordinary people would not take the initiative to patronize this kind of art shop.Most of them are those who have a unique vision, or those who really have nowhere to spend money at home will want to buy something to go home and enjoy.Thinking about it now, being able to meet Mr. Feng was really a great blessing in his life.

Xie Yun clapped his hands inappropriately and said, "Brother Xia, this is a great idea of ​​yours."

Xia's grandmother and father looked at each other, Xia Chun couldn't help but kicked his sister-in-law under the table.

Xia Yu saw that the atmosphere was not very good, so he took out the prepared baggage from the inner room and put it on the table. Finally, he went to the door to take a look, closed the door, and said, "Daddy, grandma, actually I have another thing to tell you."

Xia's grandma and grandma couldn't help but feel a little thump in their hearts when they saw that their kid was nagging and closed the door in broad daylight.The grandma of the Xia family immediately pulled Xia Yu aside, and said in a low voice: "Boy, tell grandma honestly, is the crime serious? Do you want your second brother to take your little brother-in-law to avoid it first? "

Xia Yu was dumbfounded by Grandma Xia's surprise, but was moved by Grandma Xia's thoughtful behavior. He took Grandma Xia's hand, sat him on the stool and said, "Grandma, Don't worry, I didn't do anything wrong with your kid."

Xie Yun sat obediently, blinking his eyes at the bundle on the table, and took it apart if he really wanted to.He knew this bag, and there was a lot of silver in it last time.At that time, he weighed it and was too scared to take it home.Otherwise, if his second brother saw it, he would definitely snatch it away.

Xie Yun understood this time, and he dared to mention the matter to them after his husband had considered the matter thoroughly.

Sure enough, Xia Yu opened the bag, and displayed the money and bank notes inside in front of everyone.The grandma and dad of the Xia family took a deep breath and were completely dumbfounded. Xia Chun was the first to make a sound. After he realized it, he immediately yelled, "Ah——little brother, where did you come from?" How much money?"

With this shout, the other brothers were immediately called over. Xia Qiu, Xia Dong and others put down what they were doing one after another, and all gathered in front of the only dining table at home.

"Wow, why are there so many silver coins?" Xia Dong couldn't help but took out a tael of silver and weighed it.Then Xia Zhi took out the bank note and looked at it, "It's ten taels of bank note."

"How much should there be? Little brother, where did you get so much money?"

The brothers were talking all over the place, and they didn't care, they just said what they had to say.

On the contrary, Xie Yun was not so surprised when he saw such a silver. After seeing the dozen or so taels of silver in Xia Yu's baggage last time, he seemed to be a little surprised.The only reaction is that there is a sense of pride in his heart, his husband is especially able to earn money, earning more than his grandmother and father.

The grandma of the Xia family came back to her senses after being called out like this, and immediately twisted her second brother's arm, made a silent movement, "Be quieter." Then she turned her gaze to Xia Yu, her face was rarely tense, and she was extremely serious He said, "Boy, tell Grandma honestly, where did all this money come from. If you..."

Xia Yu seemed to know what Grandma Xia was going to say next, and before Grandma Xia finished speaking, he admitted it frankly, "Grandma, you can rest assured that the money was earned by me with those twelve wood carvings. here."

Father Xia's face rarely showed a relaxed expression, he frowned and thought.

Speaking of woodcarving, the Xia family knew that Xia Yu spent a long time on it, an average of more than six hours a day, and the longest even twelve hours a day immersed in carving.Even so, Grandma Xia has complained more than once before. After all, Xia Yu is a kid who stays at home all day and is always gossiped.If it's a brother, it's acceptable to leave the door.However, as Xia Yu took out money at critical moments time and time again, the grandma of the Xia family had gradually accepted that Xia Yu was fond of woodcarving, because the money he earned was more than what he got from working in the fields.How could he have imagined that this was not just a few taels of silver, but so much at once.

Xia Yu couldn't help but sweat secretly for himself. There were only 50 taels of silver on the table, and he put the remaining 20 taels in the pit under the wooden bed.If he had told Aunt Xia and Dad before that he exchanged the items carved in four months for 100 taels of silver, no one in the family would believe him, but fortunately, the time buffer was almost enough.

Aunt Xia still couldn't believe it, "Boy, can those wood carvings earn so much money and banknotes?" Aunt Xia said as she picked up the silver to have a look, and then picked up the banknotes to look at.Having grown up so big, he has never seen so much money, so he pushed Xia Chengyou in a panic, "Boy, dad, why don't you say a few words?"

Dad of the Xia family nodded in praise and said, "Our boy, you're doing well."

Xia Chun chuckled and added, "Little brother, good job."

Xia Yu saw that everyone's emotions seemed to have stabilized a lot, so he mentioned the previous topic, "Father, Grandma, I think the end of the year is approaching, and we are basically busy with things in the field, and the harvest is also less than usual. Many, we can’t change this, but we can make up for it in other places, why not open a store in the county town and let a few brothers help out in the store.”

Xia Yu's original thought was also considering that the Xia family had such a large population that there might be other ways out besides working in the fields. Can't every elder brother be like the eldest brother, working hard in the fields all day long?If he wants to change the environment of this family, he must create a better environment for them, which is the real reason why he gave up opening a handicraft store.

This time, Xia's grandmother and father began to seriously consider Xia Yu's proposal. After all, the biggest problem blocking them has been solved.

"Boy, you mentioned opening a specialty restaurant earlier. Do you have a plan in mind about how to open it?" Xia's grandma asked tentatively. He was just a rural grandma who couldn't read or know much. .As for what kind of shop he wanted to open, he had no idea after much deliberation.Seeing that my boy has really taken responsibility since he married his brother-in-law, he can earn money, and he does things more reliably, so he simply threw the problem on Xia Yu again.

Dad of the Xia family also had the same idea, if he was asked to farm, he would know how to open a store, it would be difficult for him.

Several elder brothers were also trying their best to come up with ideas, Xia Yu just listened to them, accepted any good suggestions, and automatically skipped bad ones.

"Grandma, Dad, that's what I think. Anyway, it's impossible to open a store soon. It just so happens that I have a few friends in the county. I want to go to the county to see the shop first. If there is a suitable one Let’s rent it first, as for the details of the restaurant, I still need to finalize it, what do you think?”

The Xia family agreed unanimously.

That night, the Xia family had a smile on their lips in their sleep, opening a shop or something, their good life will soon catch up with the Cao family.
