Chapter 51 Scared to death!
the other side.

Chen Yuan came to his brother's shop with his niece Xiuxiu in his arms.

This is a small shop located in the south of the city.

The name of the shop is also very simple, it is called "North and South Groceries".

Because Chen Wenqing's business mainly deals with the rural people in the surrounding villages and towns in Pingliang County.

Choosing a name with a strong charm will make people not understand it.

And at the door of the shop, there is a wooden board hanging on the wall, on which the purchase prices of various mountain products such as chestnuts, mushrooms, hazelnuts, and animal fur are written in charcoal.

When Chen Yuan came, Chen Wenqing was weighing an old man in his sixties who came from the countryside with his trousers rolled up and his shoes covered with sand and mud. A basket of chestnuts picked up from the mountains.

"Old man, the current purchase price of chestnuts is two small cents a catty, and your basket has fifteen catties, a total of three big pennies."

After Chen Wenqing weighed, he said to the old man.

"Shopkeeper, the price is too low, let's go up a little more, this old man has spent a whole day picking up blue chestnuts on the mountain."

The old man argued hard.

"This price has already reached the ceiling. If you think the price is too low, old man, you can go to another place to have a look."

Chen Wenqing said with a smile.

The old man didn't leave either, and continued to negotiate the price with Chen Wenqing.

Chen Yuan watched from the side, thinking it was very interesting.

He didn't feel that his elder brother was rich and unkind.

Although his family's economic conditions are acceptable, they are definitely not considered a big family.

This kind of grocery business is not a huge profit business, what is earned is a very meager profit.

People who are too kind-hearted cannot do this kind of grocery business, because the shop will close down while doing it.

In fact, compared with other grocery stores in Pingliang County, his elder brother Chen Wenqing's prices are already very reasonable, and he never has a lot of scales, unlike other grocery stores, sometimes a basket of mountain goods will be two or three catties or even five or six catties less.

Because of this, his brother Chen Wenqing's grocery store has always had a very good business, and the villagers around Pingliang County love to come to him to sell mountain goods.

As for the old man who wants to sell it at a high price...

It's just normal human nature.

As a seller, everyone wants to buy something at a higher price.

Under Chen Yuan's observation, Chen Wenqing finally reached a deal with the old man, the original price was still the same, and there was no additional price increase.

"Erlang, you're here."

Seeing Chen Yuan coming, Chen Wenqing said with a smile after seeing off the old man.

"Daddy."

The little girl Xiuxiu jumped out of Chen Yuan's arms and opened her arms to throw herself into her father's arms.

Chen Yuan handed Xiuxiu to his elder brother Chen Wenqing, and Chen Wenqing hugged him happily.

"Brother, I'm going to rent a house in the city and live separately from you."

Chen Yuan thought for a while, and finally expressed his thoughts.

"why is that?"

Chen Wenqing's expression changed.

As soon as his young brother came back, he was going to move out, and outsiders would poke him in the back if they found out.

"I have already entered the Taoist sect. I am considered a monk. Sometimes I need to practice. It is not convenient to live with your family."

Chen Yuan found a reason.

In fact, the main reason is that he is now an old man, and he is considered an adult.

Unlike his predecessor, who was still talking about whether he was big or small before he left the house.

Now his elder brother is busy with business outside, if he often lives at home, then there will be only him and his brother and sister-in-law left in the house, it doesn't matter if they live for a short time, if the time is long, there may be gossip.

He didn't care, he was afraid that the innocence of his brother and sister-in-law would be spoiled and others would see the joke for nothing.

"No, my brother disagrees."

Hearing the far-fetched reason given by Chen Yuan, Chen Wenqing refused without hesitation.

"If you want to practice, you can practice at home, so why move out as soon as you come back!"

Chen Wenqing said unhappily.

"I said it to tell my brother, but I didn't want to get his consent."

Chen Yuan looked at Chen Wenqing calmly and said.

"you……"

Chen Wenqing looked at Chen Yuan seriously, and only now did he realize that his younger brother's personality had changed drastically in the past three years, and he was no longer the brother who didn't have many opinions three years ago.

"When your brother and sister-in-law come, you can tell her about it. If she agrees to be her brother, she will agree."

There was really no other way, so Chen Wenqing pushed the matter to his wife.

"That's fine, when my brother and sister-in-law come, let me tell him."

Chen Yuan didn't care.

He believed that his brother and sister-in-law would agree.

After entertaining a few more guests, it was already noon, and Wu Qingping, brother-in-law, made the meals, put them in a food box, and brought them to the shop.

When Wu Qingping laid out the food and Chen Yuan and Chen Wenqing were eating, Chen Yuan raised this question again, and Wu Qingping, who took care of Xiuxiu playing in the shop, immediately changed his face.

Wu Qingping asked Chen Yuan: "Uncle Lang, but did I have a bad reception yesterday?"

Chen Yuan picked up some food with his chopsticks, took a leisurely bite and said, "That's not true."

Wu Qingping said again: "Since there is no one, why does uncle want to move out?"

Chen Yuan put down his chopsticks, looked at his brother and sister-in-law Wu Qingping, and said solemnly: "Brother and sister-in-law, do you want to hear the truth or lies?"

Chen Wenqing answered from the side: "Just tell the truth."

Because he had heard Chen Yuan's reason just now, he felt that his younger brother wanted to move out, there must be another reason.

Chen Yuan then said: "I am full this year, I am an adult."

Chen Wenqing said: "What's wrong with eighteen, you are still a brother's brother at eighteen."

He didn't think much of it at all.

Brother-in-law Wu Qingping heard the hidden meaning in Chen Yuan's words, her eyes were thoughtful.

After pondering for a moment, Wu Qingping turned her gaze to Chen Wenqing: "Mr. Lang, since Shu Lang has decided to move out, let's respect his idea."

Chen Wenqing did not expect his wife to be persuaded by his brother so quickly.

He hurriedly said: "But..."

Chen Yuan looked at Chen Wenqing from the side and said with a smile: "Brother, it was agreed just now, as long as you convince your brother and sister-in-law, you will agree."

Chen Wenqing really had no choice but to sigh: "Oh, okay."

Brother and sister-in-law Wu Qingping said beside him: "Uncle Lang, you want to move out. We both respect your idea, but you can't just move out so soon. Anyway, you have to live at home for a few days, otherwise we will be punished." Others gossip, those who don’t know think it’s us and my wife who are driving you away, and drive you out as soon as you come back.”

Chen Yuan nodded and said, "Yes."

His purpose is just to move out to live. As for staying for a few more days, it's completely fine.

Brother and sister-in-law Wu Qingping suggested again: "After the shop closes at dusk, let Lang Jun and you find a suitable house first, not too far away from us, so that it will be convenient for communication."

It was only at this time that Chen Wenqing came to his senses, and he quickly echoed, "Qingping is right."

Since it was unavoidable for the younger brother to move out, naturally, as his wife said, he should take the initiative to help Chen Yuan find a good house, preferably in the west of the city.

Otherwise, if they were looking for him in the east of the city, they would have to cross the entire Pingliang County if they wanted to see this young boy.

Chen Yuan nodded: "This is also fine."

Brother-in-law Wu Qingping saw that Chen Yuan agreed to all of her requests, and she was relieved.

After Chen Yuan and Chen Wenqing had finished eating, Wu Qingping, the brother and sister-in-law, packed up the leftovers and went home with the food box and Xiu Xiu.

Chen Yuan was in the shop, helping his brother take care of the business.

In the afternoon, when there were no people on the street and no customers in the shop, Chen Wenqing locked the door and took Chen Yuan to a dental shop he knew well.

But walking on the street, when Chen Yuan and his wife passed an alley, they saw two strangely dressed people at the entrance of the alley.

Both of them had disheveled hair and were dressed as jailers. They looked fierce and held a wooden sign with the words "Daily Patrol" and "Night Tour" written on it.

Chen Yuan's heart moved, and he suddenly understood that these two people were not human beings but gods, probably the wandering gods of Pingliang County day and night.

They are quite different from the day and night wandering gods in Lujiang City in terms of body shape and appearance.

"That young Taoist seems to be looking at us, can he see us?"

One of them was holding a "Night Patrol" sign, Ye Youshen, and seeing Chen Yuan looking at them all the time, he said to Ri You Shen who was next to him.

"It's not just that he can see us. Look carefully at the Taoist robe he's wearing. There are hundreds of immortal gods on that robe. I'm afraid he has been blessed by the heavenly gods."

Holding up the "Daily Tour" sign, Riyoushen sized up Chen Yuandao carefully.

In his eyes, Chen Yuan was wearing a Taoist robe, and there were hundreds of halos circulating on the robe, and each halo represented a fairy god in the sky.

"Not only that, but this person seems to be a master of alchemy cultivation. The foundation of his whole body is extremely solid, and his vitality and essence are so rich that it is unbelievable. He can build such a solid foundation and has received so many blessings from gods and gods. This is I'm afraid he is a disciple of that immortal, and he is not a disciple of an ordinary immortal!"

The more you look at Riyoushen's eyes, the more dignified he looks.

"In a small county like our Pingliang County, how could He De can attract such a big man to Pingliang County?"

After listening to Day Youshen, Ye Youshen murmured to himself.

When Chen Yuan and Chen Wenqing walked up to them, the two day and night wandering spirits immediately leaned against the wall, their bodies motionless, and put sculptures there.

"He can't see me."

"He can't see me."

The two little gods kept talking.

Chen Yuan couldn't help laughing when he saw this scene, he was not blind, how could he not see two such big people on the side of the road.

However, Chen Yuan didn't intend to expose them, and walked past them.

"call!"

"Finally passed by, I was so scared to death."

After Chen Yuan walked past them, the two little gods came back to their senses, and then disappeared through the wall.
