Chapter 433: Chapter 434: To See Money as a Stranger

The news that Li Zhiqing had visited the Chen family spread throughout the collective farm by morning. Everyone knew that the Chen’s child, Guibao, was born intelligent. At such a tender age, Guibao learned spelling and arithmetic with ease, even earning praise from the cultured Li Zhiqing.

"Madam Chen, we now know. Guibao is so smart!"

"Indeed, he looks so intelligent!"

"How come Madame Chen is so blessed to have a treasure like Guibao!"

...

The people working in the fields were all singing praises. They felt that the Chen Family’s luck was really on the up and up, what with building a brick house and receiving commendation from a teacher.

Ma Xiulian was beaming, while Chen Dazhu maintained an impassive face, yet their pace of work sped up, gaining momentum.

Guibao was indeed a lucky star sent by Heaven!

As a result, Helian Qiao’s reputation in the village grew even more significant, and the people in the collective farm believed that she would undoubtedly be able to marry into the city in the future, just like Chen Honghong.

In the blink of an eye, a month passed. The new brick house was built and just needed to dry for another week before it could be moved into.

The Chen family gathered together for dinner. After all, during the brick house construction, Chen Jianguo and his brothers worked the hardest, and the daughters-in-law were off work early to help with the cooking.

So Ma Xiulian cooked two big pots of meat: "Everyone’s been tired this past month, today there’s plenty of meat and rice, eat all you can!"

Dabai, who was in the corner, had also started eating. Ma Xiulian filled a large pot with braised pork for him.

For the past month, Dabai almost daily brought back some wild rabbits and chickens from the mountains to supplement the meals, even once dragging back a not so small Plum Deer.

"Mom specifically went to town to buy a bottle of liquor." Zhou Zhaodi, holding a large bottle of alcohol, cheerfully poured for each of her brothers.

Chen Jiandang, looking at the alcohol, was instantly reminded of the amusing incident when their little niece wanted to drink and deliberately asked Helian Qiao, "Guibao, do you want to drink some wine today?"

Zhou Zhaodi, evidently remembering too, laughed and pinched him.

Helian Qiao, who was eating her meat, looked at the wine with disgust, her chubby face clearly rejecting it: "Not drinking! This wine tastes awful!"

The wine she liked was the fruity wine that the mischievous dragon used to drink. It was fragrant, sweet, and delicious, unlike this wine which was throat-burning.

Recalling the taste of the fruity wine, the Little Princess couldn’t help sticking out her tongue.

Seeing her adorable behavior, the adults in the room laughed heartily, making the house lively and joyful.

After everyone ate and drank, Chen Jianjun took out some money from his pocket, placed it on the table, and said earnestly, "My brothers, you’ve all worked hard this month. This is your payment."

Even among brothers, accounts should be clear. This was the money he promised to give. The other people in the collective farm who came to help had already received their wages by noon.

Chen Jianguo took a look and muttered, "We’re all brothers, we should obviously help each other."

Zhao Mei has always obeyed her husband’s words. Whatever he said, goes.

Chen Jiandang also promptly waved his hand and said, "You’re wrong here, fourth brother. Giving money to us, your own brothers, makes us strangers."

He was resolutely not going to accept it!

Zhou Zhaodi also laughed and said, "Indeed, we’re all family. We should do these things. You’re being too courteous, fourth brother."

Moreover, she was still thinking about maintaining a good relationship with the fourth brother’s family to continue enjoying the blessings of her little niece in the future.

"Use this money to buy more meat for Guibao and your parents." Liu Lanzhi and Chen Jianmin also nodded in agreement. They did not lack this amount of money.
