Cross-country exchange

The next day, Luo Liang got up early in the morning to do cleaning and so on, and worked diligently throughout.He even took over Xia Qiu's work.

After a whole day, the Xia family looked at a loss.Aunt Xia pulled Xia Yu aside and asked, "Boy, did you bring Luo Liang here because you wanted him to stay here to help?"

Xia Yu recounted his own thoughts, "Grandma, you watched Luo Liang grow up since he was a child, I think you should be at ease."

Of course Aunt Xia knew about it, but if my kid didn't tell, he didn't count.

"Well, let him stay."

As for the Xia family's matter, as long as Xia Yu proposes it, and Grandma Xia and Daddy both agree, the matter is basically finalized.

Luo Liang looked at Aunt Xia's eyes from time to time at first, but after a few days, the Xia family didn't say anything about him coming to help, and his heart settled down. This was his first job, and he Want to get it done.It's no wonder that he was afraid of Xia's grandmother in his heart. It was because he and Xia Yu were naughty when they were young. Sometimes they would go home covered in mud from playing, and then they were caught by Xia's grandma once. He won't do anything to him, but he was terrified when he saw Xia Yu being held down in the soil by Xia's grandma crying daddy and grandma.

From then on, the sky and the earth were not afraid, Luo Liang, who was not even afraid of Luo's father, was afraid that Grandma Xia would do something like this to him.

Luo Liang felt relieved, but Xia Qiu became more and more unhappy.When he was in the village, Xia Qiu didn’t treat Luo Liang very much. If it wasn’t for Xia Yu’s eccentric temper when he was a child, playing around, Luo Liang, a little friend, he would have wanted his little brother to leave Luo Liang as skinny as he was. The monkey guy is far away.

Who would have thought that this person would come to their new shop in such a shameless manner.

In recent days, when sleeping at night, Xie Yun habitually lay in Xia Yu's arms and bit his ears.

"Brother Xia, don't you think the third brother is acting weird recently?"

The warm breath sprayed on Xia Yu's face, which was warm and humid. The little guy rubbed against him casually, which made Xia Yu feel a little distracted.He is not a saint, his little brother-in-law is lying on him, and he can still feel nothing, especially after having tasted the ups and downs once or twice, the original intimate movements have all changed in his eyes.But because we all live in the same room, some things have to be tolerated.

"Well, tell me what's wrong with the third brother?" While trying to suppress the burning desire in his heart, Xia Yu couldn't help but penetrate into the little guy's underwear and stroke the smooth body.After Xie Yunshang had an illness, his body temperature became a little low. Xia Yu would wrap him in his arms from time to time, and help him warm up at night. This kind of feeling that can't be touched is really a sweet feeling. burden.

Xie Yun twisted the sensitive waist that was touched, rubbed it up again, and whispered in Xia Yu's ear, "The third brother has been absent-minded recently, and he has done several things wrong."

The food was delivered to the wrong table, and when I asked for money, I missed money...

Xia Yu lightly bit the earlobe that was close at hand, and kissed lightly all the way, not surprisingly, he heard the voice of the person in his arms groaning softly.

Xie Yun panted lightly, and his body's immediate reaction told Xia Yu what he was thinking.

"Brother Xia."

Thinking of the people in the room, Xia Yu couldn't help but smile bitterly. He touched Xie Yun's head and kissed him lightly on the forehead, "Sleep, don't think too much."

As for Xia Qiu's matter, Xia Yu even observed it when he was in the shop.Third brother Xia was indeed a little absent-minded, especially after Luo Liang swayed in front of him twice...

Luo Liang is also a monkey, and while helping Xia Qiu, he also angered Xia Qiu. He thought it was very amusing for Brother Xia to be angry.

Xia Yu saw it in his eyes, and he had some calculations in his heart.During the division of labor, the two were deliberately separated.One person is in charge of the upstairs and one is in charge of the downstairs.After a whole day like this, they hardly meet each other a few times, and the two of them can work with peace of mind without interfering with each other.

Xia Yu thought that this temporarily solved the problem, so he didn't pay attention to the movements of the two of them. Who would have thought that something like that would happen in a few months.

"Boss Xia, what do you think of my previous proposal?" Feng Shao first drank tea and chatted with Xia Yu about family affairs. After the conversation became quiet in the room, he turned to the topic.

The shop's business is pretty good, except that it's a little busy during the peak hours of eating, Xia Yu will find a private room and carve something quietly in it when it's not busy.Since the store opened, he put the wood carvings of fortune dolls aside.

Sculpture is his favorite technique. If he hadn't considered the various situations of the Xia family, he would have wanted to open a handmade shop before.However, he also considered the market environment before. After all, carved handicrafts are still acceptable and appreciated by a small number of people in this era. Most people think that wood carvings, jade carvings, etc. are luxuries.If he invests in a store, the risk must be greater.

In the early stage, he did not have this capital.

However, the suggestion made by the young master of the Feng family is very exciting.When two people work together, the risk is half and half.And in the early stage, he didn't need to invest too much money in it.

It has to be said that Xia Yu was already a little moved.

"Master Feng, I still don't understand the conditions you mentioned earlier." Xia Yu pointed out several of them very frankly.

The young master of the Feng family also explained one by one. In fact, after collecting two sets of wood carvings, Feng Shao had already made up his mind to pull Xia Yu onto the boat.He was even more sure about the matter of the Appraisal Pavilion.

"How about it, Boss Xia, I am very sincere, and we will split the profit at that time."

"In this case, let's cooperate happily."

Feng Shao immediately took out the contract he had prepared and handed it to Xia Yu.

Xia Yu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "It seems that Mr. Feng already expected that I would agree. If I didn't agree, Mr. Feng's contract was prepared for nothing."

Feng Shao was also very calm, "I will wait until you agree."

Xia Yu picked up the contract and looked at it one by one. Many regulations in the contract are beneficial to him. The profit is divided into half and the investment is not required. Can such regulations really be included in the contract?If this contract is viewed by outsiders, they will probably feel that Mr. Feng's forehead is caught between the cracks in the door.Where is it to make money? It's clear that it's upside down.

"If you have any other requests, you can ask them now. I hope we can cooperate happily in the future." The sincerity of Mr. Feng's family has made Xia Yu at a loss for what to say.

But Xia Yu is not stupid. As the saying goes, there is no wasted lunch in the sky. It is obvious that the other party has taken a fancy to his carving skills.

Xia Yu thought for a while, and signed on it without hesitation, "It's a happy cooperation."

As soon as the contract was signed here, Mr. Feng went crazy with joy.A series of things that had been conceived before were ordered one by one. First, Feng Yang was asked to close the previous handicraft workshop, and then he started to find a shop.

Coincidentally, the shop is just across from Brother Shu's workshop.

The two families looked down and saw each other.

Xia Yu was a little speechless when he saw the location of the new shop they cooperated with.Do you dare to say that Mr. Feng's family opened a new store just to win such a breath?

But he didn't have much to say, so the two discussed the layout of the shop.Xia Yu even spent some time drawing out the layout and handing it over to Mr. Feng's family to decide.

"Xia Yu, where did your idea come from? It's really great." After the two got acquainted, Feng Shao stopped being polite and called him by his first name.

Xia Yu also felt a little more at ease.

"Which one do you like?" Xia Yu drew three layout plans for the layout of the shop. After all, this shop can be regarded as his investment. If the income is good, their family's family situation can be better.So Xia Yu has worked hard every day like a spinning top. After finishing his work in the restaurant, he rushes here, even though the two shops are only two streets away.

Mr. Feng's vision is also profound. He thought for a long time before choosing a more traditional layout.Xia Yu had no objection to this.

Once the shop is finalized, Mr. Feng's speed will be swift and resolute, and a series of things such as decoration, layout, purchase and display will start.

There are not many items that Xia Yu can take out, and carving is a technical job that takes time.Thinking of the items needed for the opening, Xia Yu felt extremely stressed.

After discussing with Feng Shao, Xia Yu proposed to select some items from the previous handicraft workshop that can be sold and put them in it. If possible, the two series of woodcarvings purchased from him before can also be placed. As for the follow-up Of course, he had to work hard to carve the items.

Feng Shao touched his nose in embarrassment, and said, "Xia Yu, don't get me wrong, it's not that I'm stingy, but the two sets of wood carvings you gave me before, and they're all in the Appreciation Club at the moment..."

Xia Yu: "..."

Things are going on in full swing, and Xia Yu has even planned that if it really doesn't work, he will recruit apprentices and open a sculpture school.

Of course, these are still planned for now.

Just when Xia Yu was busy making money and the business of the restaurant was getting better and better.

The matter between Xia Chun's second brother and Chen Jinsuo has made some progress.

Coincidentally, Xia Chun has been helping in the county, and the family and the county are very busy, too busy to spare time to exchange feelings.Seeing that Xia Chun hadn't been to their house for a long time, the grandma of the Chen family felt a little anxious.If the two families settle the matter, there is no need to worry about it. However, the two families have visited each other, but there is no verbal agreement, which makes people really worry.Besides, the grandma of the Chen family also saw that the economic environment of the Xia family seemed to be getting better and better, and that brother Xia Chun was also a capable person, so she was very satisfied.

And my kid seems to be quite satisfied with the other party, since the other party doesn't move, there must be one party who takes the initiative.The grandma of the Chen family urged Chen Jinsuo to run more in the county.

So after going back and forth like this, the relationship between the two has gradually stabilized.

Even though Grandma Xia always does Xia Chun's ideological work, Xia Chun always feels that something is missing, and she just doesn't let go when it comes to marriage.Aunt Xia had no choice but to let the two of them go.

No, it happened to be raining cats and dogs that day.After Chen Jinsuo brought some fresh vegetables from home, he didn't see Xia Chun after helping for a while, so he couldn't help asking Grandma Xia.

Aunt Xia was busy, so she didn't care, and said, "Second brother went home to pick up vegetables, and he will be back soon."

Most of the dishes in Xia's restaurant are brought from their own village to the county by Xia's family. One is that they grow some, and the other is that it is cheaper to buy vegetables in the village than in the county, and they are all from the same village. Those who know the basics are more at ease.So every few days, Xia Chun would ride a donkey and drag a cart home.

Originally, this kind of work was left to Luo Liang, but Luo Liang happened to go shopping with Xia Qiu, Xia Chun saw that the weather was not so good, so he hurried back.Unexpectedly, there was a heavy rain...

After Chen Jinsuo heard Grandma Xia's words, he waited in the shop while helping out, but after waiting for several hours, it was already dark, and Xia Chun was nowhere to be seen.

When a group of guests left, the restaurant was empty.

Grandma Xia looked at the sky, it was dark, the rain outside was heavy and urgent, and the north wind was blowing loudly, "Second brother didn't bring a coir raincoat when he went out, right?"

"Grandma, the second brother has been gone for several hours, and logically he should have arrived early." Before Xia Chun left, Xie Yun told him to come back earlier.

I was a little worried in my heart, but Xie Yun was still taboo about some things and didn't dare to say them.

"Don't worry, I'll look for it." Chen Jinsuo said aside, he couldn't sit still anymore, he should have gone back at this time, but he was somewhat unwilling to see Xia Chun.The two of them didn't spend much time together, and it took a long time before they could see each other.In the beginning, he just obeyed Grandma's advice and came to the running field, but now, he really wants to meet this person.

"How is this possible? Luo Liang and I should go find it. You are waiting here."

As soon as Luo Liang heard that Grandma Xia called him, he immediately took the coir raincoat and bamboo hat from the house, as if he was ready.

Xia Qiu on the side said, "Grandma, the younger brother hasn't come back yet, you and Xiao Yun will look for the younger brother, and Luo Liang and I will look for the second brother."

When Xia Qiu reminded him like this, Xie Yun immediately thought that Xia Yu was still outside and hadn't come back. He had been busy for a day, so he might still be in the new shop. As long as it was related to Xia Yu's affairs, Xie Yun's mind would turn very fast. Quickly, he quickly put on a coir raincoat and walked towards Brother Shu's workshop.

Aunt Xia was overwhelmed by Xie Yun, and before she had time to say anything, she put on a coir raincoat and chased her out.

"What are you going to do? It's raining so hard, and you don't know which road the second brother Xia Chun is on. You should stay at home and wait for Xia Yu and the others to come back. Just leave it to the two of us."

There were only two coir raincoats left at home, Luo Liang snatched Xia Qiu's and threw it to Chen Jinsuo.

Chen Jinsuo gave him a grateful look, put it on immediately, and rushed into the rain quickly, Luo Liang followed.

Xia Qiu was so angry that he stamped his feet at home, but there was nothing he could do, he and Xia Zhi were the only ones left in the house.

Here, Xia Yu came back not long after.

There are two roads between the county seat and Hexi Village. One is a relatively spacious road. On weekdays, large things such as carriages and carts pass by. The other is a small road. OK.When the two of them were at the fork in the road, they hesitated for a moment, and each chose one for the other.

"If you find someone, return to the restaurant immediately."

It was already dark and the path was full of bumps, but Chen Jinsuo was still trotting forward despite the heavy rain.The coir raincoat couldn't resist the rain at all, and it didn't take long before his whole body was wet, and he was half frozen to death by the cold wind.

Xia Yu changed into a clean set of clothes, drank a bowl of hot soup, and saw several members of his family sitting at the gate, blowing the cold wind, waiting anxiously.

"Grandma, Xiaoyun, come here first and have some hot soup first. Luo Liang and the others are looking for it, and they should be back soon." Xia Yu is not too worried, as Second Brother Xia has walked this road many times , should not get lost.The only possibility is that it was either delayed by family affairs, or the car broke down on the way and was stranded halfway.

It was really guessed by Xia Yu. Xia Chun felt that there might be a rainstorm, so he rushed all the way back. After picking up the usual dishes, he didn't even have time to say a few words to his Xiaosi and Xiaoliu. , and rushed to the county. In order to catch up with the time, Xia Chun's brain became hot and he chose a shortcut path.

Unexpectedly, the wheel of the cart was crooked, and it accidentally got stuck in a field ridge on the way.There were a lot of vegetables on the trolley, and Xia Chun tried her best but couldn't move it.

At this time, the rainstorm suddenly came down.Xia Chun couldn't hide if she wanted to. She didn't go to the village or shop behind her, and she didn't even have a place to shelter from the rain.

Xia Chun was reluctant to throw these vegetables on the side of the road. When he waited for several hours and did not see a passerby passing by, he was almost desperate.

Chen Jinsuo stumbled all the way, and saw a scooter parked on the side of the road from a long distance away. He ran over anxiously, and saw a figure get out from under the scooter, and heard a familiar voice, "Brother, Do me a favor, will you?"

"Xia Chun, I finally found you."

Xia Chun wiped the rainwater off his face, and then he could see who came.

Chen Jinsuo was worried all the way, fearing that something might happen to Xia Chun.Now seeing the person standing in front of him properly, he couldn't hold back for a moment, and pulled him into his arms tightly.

The two of them were all wet, their clothes were almost sticking to their bodies, and their body temperature was passing through each other. Xia Chun was stunned for a while before recovering, and pushed Chen Jinsuo awkwardly, not knowing where to look. "How did you come?"

"I went to the restaurant to look for you. I couldn't wait for you, so I came to look for you." Chen Jinsuo was also a little embarrassed. He explained while looking at Xia Chun's car.

The wheel of the wheel got stuck, and half of it left the cart, and the donkey ran into someone's field. It looked a bit miserable, no wonder Xia Chun couldn't get away.

"Let's straighten this board first." One man led the donkey, and the other tried to push the cart up.The two tried several times but failed to push the car up. Later, Chen Jinsuo used all his strength to push the car up with the help of a stone on the ridge of the field.
