Chapter 227 Don’t always think about taking advantage of others!
"patriotic!"

At home, Chen Aiguo had just washed his face when he heard a sound coming from the door.

"Big brother is here?"

Chen Aiguo greeted him with a smile.

Chen Aidang smiled and nodded, feeling somewhat amazed.

During the last Chinese New Year, Chen Aiguo came back and he was still quite honest, not much different from before.

But this time when he came back, he had obviously changed and was no longer as silly as before.

People have obviously become more confident and generous, and are more proactive in dealing with others.

It seems that I have really gained a lot of experience in the capital.

"I came back with your sister-in-law today, and I just happened to hear that your family was back as well. Isn't this a coincidence?"

"How about we have a reunion dinner together at home at noon?"

Chen Aidang said to Chen Aiguo with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Chen Aiguo did not answer, but turned his head to look at Li Xiaojun who came out of the house.

"Okay, even if Big Brother didn't tell us, we would have gone there too."

"I just came back to clean up the house, and then I'm going to visit my parents."

After Li Xiaojun came out, he said with a smile.

Chen Aidang looked at Li Xiaojun with a smile.

The Li Xiaojun in front of him was completely different from the timid educated youth who went to the countryside in his memory.

At this moment, she was calm, elegant and confident, as if she was a completely different person from before.

So, it was her family's real turn of events that brought about such a big change in her.

"Then you all should hurry up, your sister-in-law and our mother have already started cooking at home."

"I'm going back!"

Chen Aidang said this with a smile, then turned and left.

But after he left, the smile on Chen Aidang's face suddenly disappeared.

The second brother’s family has changed!
In fact, in his heart, he used to look down on the second or third child.

The second child is a stupid guy who just buries himself in work.

As for the third child, Chunchun is just a waste.

But in comparison, he still felt that the second son was more useful because he was stronger and could help him with work in many cases, such as transporting coal at home and hunting wild animals in the mountains.

So over the years, Chen Aidang did not show favoritism towards the second and third brothers. He looked down on each of them equally.

Fortunately, although he looked down on her in his heart, he still had some affection for her on the surface, which was why Chen Wangshi asked him to come forward.

But now it seems that the second brother's family is not as easy to control as he thought.

"I thought you didn't want to go to dinner?"

After Chen Aidang left, Chen Aiguo said to Li Xiaojun with a smile.

"I don't have to think about this. It's just a meal. It's the last one."

"Once we finish eating this time, there won't be much chance to eat again in the future."

"After this village, I don't plan to come back. If you miss your parents, come back to see them by yourself."

Li Xiaojun said calmly at this time.

Chen Aiguo solved the problem of Beijing household registration, and from then on her family were completely Beijing residents.

For Li Xiaojun, there is nothing worth returning to in this village.

This is also the reason why she returned home in glory this time.

When I came here, I came with a destitute identity label.

But when she leaves, she must leave the village in glory.

"Okay then, it's up to you!"

Chen Aiguo also felt that it was better to let Li Xiaojun meet his parents less often. If there was a quarrel again in the future, it would be troublesome.

With the current power of the Li family, it is really easy to control the Chen family.

Near noon, Chen Aiguo and his family arrived at their old house.

Along the way, villagers from the village kept greeting Chen Aiguo and his friends, and looked at them with envy.

The second son of the Chen family has completely turned over a new leaf. The clothes he's wearing are completely different from the ones below.

Look at their daughter, the little country girl who used to live in the mud and was ignored, has now transformed herself and is dressed like the rich lady she used to be.

I married a really good wife!
When the family of three entered the old house, a young woman wearing a dacron shirt and with a fashionable perm was eating melon seeds in the yard.

As soon as he saw Li Xiaojun and the others coming in, he immediately stood up and greeted them with a smile.

"The second son's family is here. Look at how beautifully Nana is dressed up. Come, let Auntie hug you!"

The person in front of him was Chen Aiguo’s sister-in-law, Zhou Lili, who came from a forestry worker’s family.

"do not want!"

Nannan turned around and hugged Li Xiaojun's neck and spoke quickly.

Li Xiaojun smiled and said, "Don't be surprised, sister-in-law. The child has been spoiled by her grandmother and uncle."

Zhou Lili drew back her hand somewhat awkwardly and said with a smile, "It seems that after not seeing each other for such a long time, we have become estranged."

"It's okay, you'll get used to it in a little while."

"Hey, Xiaojun, the material of your clothes is very good. Did you buy it in Beijing? This style is rare. The last time I went to the provincial capital to visit a department store, I didn't see this style."

Zhou Lili boasted calmly, saying that don’t think that going to the capital was a big deal, she also often went to the provincial capital.

These days, their provincial capital in the Northeast is also a first-class city in the country and is not necessarily inferior to the capital.

Li Xiaojun understood the meaning of Zhou Lili's words. After all, these were her old tricks.

When I came back before, I was often told not to touch this or that on my body. They were all high-end products from provincial capitals or the south.

"My department store doesn't sell it. I bought it at the Friendship Store in Beijing. It's imported fabric, freshly imported from the United States."

Li Xiaojun said calmly.

The smile on Zhou Lili's face froze again.

Wow, a department store in the provincial capital?
How does it compare with the Friendship Store in Beijing?
"We also have a Friendship Store in our provincial capital, but ordinary people are not allowed to enter. They want overseas remittance coupons. I heard that all the money is from foreigners."

Zhou Lili said somewhat embarrassedly that foreign exchange coupons had not yet been fully rolled out, and all she knew about were overseas remittance coupons.

Li Xiaojun nodded: "There will be no more overseas remittance coupons soon. The country has upgraded them to foreign exchange coupons. In the future, you can enter the Friendship Store with foreign exchange coupons."

"That's it!"

Zhou Lili nodded in understanding, and then suddenly reacted.

Can I enter with foreign exchange coupons?
Doesn't this mean?

"What are you talking about? Aiguo is here, come in first!"

Chen Aidang came out at this time and said with a smile.

Usually when they go back to their hometown, Zhou Lili would give him some face, and Chen Aidang would usually pretend to be very tough.

"The second one is back?"

In the room, Chen Wang also smiled and greeted Chen Aiguo enthusiastically.

As for Li Xiaojun, she subconsciously ignored it.

After all, no matter what, Chen Aiguo is her son.

"Father, mother!"

Chen Aiguo chuckled and shouted.

"Brother, I heard you brought back an imported foreign watch. Can you show it to me?"

The third brother, Chen Aijun, came up at this time and said with a grin.

"Is this the one in your hand?"

Seeing the watch on Chen Aiguo's hand, Chen Aijun subconsciously wanted to take it off.

"do not move!"

Chen Aiguo waved his hand and opened Chen Aijun's hand.

"Second brother, no way, are you so stingy?"

Seeing that Chen Aiguo refused to give it to him, Chen Aijun immediately sneered and said.

He used to like to use this kind of words to bully Chen Aiguo. How could a brother be so stingy?

"This is not a question of being stingy or not. Don't touch this thing carelessly. This is imported, you know?"

"If it's broken, it has to be sent abroad to be repaired. If you break it, will you send it abroad to be repaired?" Chen Aiguo was not a fool while working as a security guard in the school. At least he learned a lot about hermaphrodites.

"It's not that bad of a country. I saw department stores also have imported watches, and they can be repaired in the store."

Zhou Lili walked in at this time and said curiously.

"That's different, sister-in-law. Well, well, Xiaojun, what did Changhe say at the beginning?"

"This is a high-end brand from Rome. The ones imported from China are just ordinary models, not of the same level. For repairs and maintenance, this one has to be sent to Hong Kong Island for repair and maintenance."

Li Xiaojun said calmly.

Chen Aiguo nodded: "Yes, that's it!"

"Does it have to be sent to Hong Kong Island for repairs and maintenance? How much does this cost?"

Zhou Lili asked in surprise at this moment.

"I don't know about that either. Changhe gave it to us and said it was for the couple to carry together!"

Chen Aiguo smiled and shook his head.

Zhou Lili looked at Li Xiaojun curiously again and continued to ask: "Xiaojun, do you know?"

"The two pieces together would be around 10,000 Hong Kong dollars!"

"Ten thousand? Hong Kong dollars?"

"Is the Hong Kong dollar the money from Hong Kong Island? Is it also considered foreign exchange?"

Chen Aidang also asked curiously at this time.

"Correct!"

"How much is this in RMB?"

Zhou Lili continued to ask.

"About 3,300!"

Li Xiaojun said calmly.

"How many?"

"More than three thousand? Just to buy two watches?"

"Oh my God, this."

Zhou Lili completely gave up the idea of ​​comparing herself with others.

She didn't think three or two hundred was a big deal, just like a Shanghai watch that cost a hundred yuan or so, it was not like she couldn't afford it.

But I spent more than 3,000 yuan to buy two watches, and they were given as gifts.

How rich is Li Xiaojun's brother?
As for Chen Wang and the others, they were completely stunned at this time.

More than three thousand yuan! When did they ever have so much money?
Oh, no, there was one when the country was first founded, the first set of RMB. At that time, ten thousand yuan was only equivalent to one yuan now.

"Hurry up and take a seat to eat!"

"Let's eat and talk!"

At this time, Chen Wangshi smiled and began to distribute chopsticks.

"Nannan, come here, grandma will give you a chicken leg to eat."

Chen Wang specially killed an old hen at home and stewed it.

"Grandma, I want to eat chicken legs too!"

At this time, a fat boy said loudly that this was the son of the eldest brother Chen Aidang, and he was also the apple of the Chen family's eye.

Seeing this, Li Xiaojun felt like laughing for some reason.

In the past, when the family ate something delicious, like chicken, the chicken legs were usually given to two people, one was Chen Aidang’s son, and the other was the third child.

As for Zhou Lili, she never comes back for dinner.

And now, the girls in their family can also eat chicken legs, but unfortunately, their own girls don’t even want them anymore.

After taking a bite, Nannan spit it out.

"Mom, it's too greasy and not tasty. I don't want to eat it anymore. I want to eat the chicken drumsticks roasted by my uncle."

Li Xiaojun touched her daughter's head.

"Nannan, be good. Let your uncle roast a chicken leg for you when we get home. Let's eat first."

"Don't be surprised, this child has been spoiled by our family."

Li Xiaojun then gave a neutral explanation, and everyone present felt helpless.

In a trance, they suddenly realized that even if they took out the best things now, they were not worth mentioning in front of Li Xiaojun.

Even Zhou Lili, the most knowledgeable person in the family, couldn't keep up with Li Xiaojun and the others' vision when she came back and wanted to speak.

"It's okay, let's eat and ignore her!"

At this time, Chen Aiguo happily took the chicken leg and started eating.

The main thing is that he is the one who usually prepares the food that his daughter doesn’t eat, so he’s used to it.

"Aiguo, how long will you stay this time? Do you need to take leave from your job over there?"

Chen Aidang asked with a smile at this time.

He remembered that Chen Aiguo was a temporary worker for someone else there, and he probably took leave to come back during the summer vacation.

"I can't stay for a few days, but I didn't ask for leave. I came back this time to handle the household registration."

Chen Aiguo said with a smile while gnawing on a chicken leg.

"Transfer of household registration?"

"Where are you going? Beijing? Have you changed your commercial grain household registration?"

Zhou Lili reacted the fastest and asked the question right away.

"Well, Uncle Xiaojun found a job for me there. I can be his driver and transfer my household registration there."

Chen Aiguo smiled and nodded.

"Be a driver? So good? So you can drive now?"

"Xiaojun, what kind of official position does our uncle hold? How can he transfer Aiguo just like that?"

Chen Aidang asked anxiously at this time.

Li Xiaojun smiled and said, "He's not my biological uncle, but a cousin. I don't know what rank he holds, but he's an 11th-level cadre in the army."

"He came to our house during the Chinese New Year and saw Aiguo didn't have a job yet. He just happened to have a vacancy, so I gave it to him. Aiguo is also lucky!"

"This is not something that can be accomplished by sheer luck. If you are patriotic, you will be able to eat commercial grain in the capital. Your whole family will have Beijing hukou in the future."

Chen Aidang said enviously at this time, although they are all commercial grain households, can the commercial grain households in the capital be the same as those in their small border cities?

Apart from anything else, those in the provincial capital are much more awesome than them, let alone those in the capital.

An 11th-level military cadre can reach the rank of general.

It seems that what Xiaojun's younger brother Li Changhe said at their house was not empty talk.

"Second brother, second sister-in-law, since you are so capable, why don't you lend our parents some money to build a house?"

The third brother, Chen Aijun, continued speaking with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Chen Aiguo shook his head decisively and said, "Where do we have the money?"

"Your sister-in-law is still in school, and I was a temporary worker before. Together, we don't make much money a month. We have to feed a family of three and rent a house. How can we have any money?"

"Brother, don't pretend. Your watch is only a few thousand yuan. If you sell it, won't you have money?"

The third brother said subconsciously.

Li Xiaojun smiled at this time, looked at the third brother and sneered, "Third brother, this watch was given to me by my brother, how much do you want to sell it for?"

"Besides, even if you sell this watch, would you dare to spend the money?"

Li Xiaojun felt that they must not forget how Li Changhe treated their family the last time he came.

Her purpose of coming this time was very clear, which was to show off to them, to show off something they could see but not touch.

They were extremely envious, but in the end they couldn't get any benefit at all.

"That's right, Third Brother. You have the nerve to ask the Second Brother to sell something that was given to you by your younger brother."

"If you want to build a house, you should work hard and earn cents. Why are you just staring at us?"

"Your elder brother and second brother are married, who wouldn't support their wives and children? Do they have to support you as well?"

At this time, Zhou Lili decisively stood on the same side as Li Xiaojun and taught Chen Laosan a lesson without any hesitation.

Anyway, she has always looked down on this family, of course, now it does not include the second brother's family.

The eldest brother's family and the second brother's family are a real family, all of them are working class.

Third brother, stop thinking about taking advantage of others!
