"There are only two conditions. First, you have to fetch water for food in the yard, and second, you have to collect the firewood we burn here every day."

When Chen Anan heard that she had never done these two things before.

He couldn't help but feel a little worried, but when Liu Binghua heard this, he wondered what was going on?Anyone with arms and legs can do it.

"Xiao Chen, please agree."

Chen Anan pulled the production team leader to one side and said,
"Captain, to be honest, I have never done any of these jobs. I really can't do this job."

Liu Binghua was stunned when he heard this. He had never seen any young people who couldn't do this job. People in his village started doing housework for their families at the age of seven or eight. Who knew how to cut firewood? No. Can you fetch water?
What can I do?

"Captain Liu, I heard that you have three sons. Otherwise, I will discuss something with you.

You are Liu Minhua's brother, and you also know that Xiao Liuer and my brother have a life-long friendship, otherwise he wouldn't be able to entrust you to take care of me.

Just take care of me.

I'll give you two dollars every month.Do you think you can let your boy help me with fetching water and collecting firewood every day? "

Chen Anan also knew that when things got to this point, he couldn't escape this job.

Even if you live alone, you still have to face this job.

But it’s a fact that she really can’t do it. Since she can’t do it, she might as well find someone else to do it.

"This is inappropriate, you are my brother's friend.

You said he entrusted me to take care of you, how can I charge you? "

When Liu Binghua heard this, he shook his head hastily. How could people in his village do such a shameless thing?
Besides, charging people two yuan a month for fetching water and firewood is definitely not appropriate.

“Captain Liu, if you don’t accept my money, I’ll be embarrassed forever.

Just help me. I am a city dweller who can't do anything. If you do the work for me, I will pay you a certain amount of money. This is what you should do. "

Liu Binghua still shook his head. If the villagers found out about this, he would have a reputation as a speculator.

"You also know that you are not in favor of this kind of thing now. If outsiders find out about this, it will be fine."

"Brother Liu, please help me. You see, it is really not easy for me as a city man to settle here. I beg you, just help me. No one of us will tell anyone about this."

You know, I know, maybe you don’t want money, I have candy stamps and cloth stamps here.If you need it, I can exchange these tickets with you. What do you think? "

My brothers will write these things to me every month, and there will be a few tickets in the envelope.

Chen Anan really doesn't lack these things.

But for the people in the village, these things are still scarce.

Sure enough, Liu Binghua's eyes lit up after hearing this.

"If that's the case, then you can exchange cotton and cloth tickets with me, and I'll ask my son to fill up the water and pick up the firewood for you every day."

I just asked my son to help me.

"Okay, Captain, since you said so, let's make an agreement."

Chen Anan was also happy and immediately took out the ticket from his pocket.

Captain Liu hurriedly pressed her hand and glanced at the old lady, which was worse than the old lady seeing her.

"An'an, you can stay here with the old lady. Well, auntie, from now on, my second brother will come over to help you with the water and firewood for your home. Don't worry, he will do it for you as long as An An lives here. "

Mrs. Liu snorted coldly,
"I don't care which one of you does it, this is what happened anyway, and this is my condition."

Liu Binghua nodded and helped Chen Anan move his luggage into the small house next door. The old lady lived in the main room in front.

Before Liu Binghua left, he told Chen Anan, "Remember, no matter what outsiders ask, you are a distant relative of our Liu family."

This is also for Chen Anan's consideration, and even more for his own consideration. Otherwise, if others find out about collecting department tickets and cotton tickets, they will inevitably be criticized.

After Liu Binghua left, Chen Anan looked at the cabin. This cabin was really small.

In addition to a single bed, there is no room for a desk.

There is a wooden table placed narrowly against the wall. It is very narrow and thin. It is more like a case than a table.

This house is in the north, and the old lady lives in the south. The sun is shining in the old lady's room, but Chen An'an's room doesn't even have sunlight. There is a sense of moisture in it.

Because the house was too small, there was no Kang. The hut where Chen Anan lived had a wooden bed.

You can feel the coldness by touching the bed board.

This little bed is under the window, and the window is very cracked.

You can feel the wind blowing inward.

Chen Anan packed his luggage. Several bags were not opened. It was useless to open them. None of the things inside were used now. The room was so small. If it were really opened, he wouldn't know where to put it.

I just laid out my bedding, briefly cleaned the room, and hung curtains on the windows.

After cleaning up everything, Chen Anan felt hungry, but when he thought about the kitchen, what should he do?
I can't cook myself.

At this time, the old lady had already walked out. When she passed by her room, her eyes lit up when she saw the small floral curtain hanging on the window.

Apparently the old lady likes these things.

The old lady thought for a while and knocked on his door. Chen Anan hurriedly walked out.
"Aunt Liu, what's the matter?"

"It's dark today, I'm going to cook soon, what are you going to do with the meal?
I can lend you the kitchen.

But you have to prepare the food and seasonings yourself, as well as the firewood.

We each do our own thing, there is no need to get involved, and there is no need to make you think that I, an old lady, am taking advantage of you. "

Chen Anan smiled bitterly, what would the old lady do if she lent her the kitchen?

She can't cook.

"Aunt Liu, how far is it from our place to the nearest supply and marketing cooperative?"

When the old lady heard this, she frowned and looked at Chen Anan. The clear expression on her face made Chen Anan blush all of a sudden.

I had to explain it honestly.

"Aunt Liu, I don't know how to cook, but I can cook noodles and poach eggs.

He can also make fires, but he really can't do other things. If he does, he will probably poison people to death. "

After hearing this, the old lady couldn't hold back her serious face for a moment and burst into laughter.

Chen Anan was even more embarrassed. He couldn't cook, and he could never get rid of this reputation.

"I can see that you are a spoiled young lady in the city, and you really don't know anything."

The old lady slapped the dirt on her body and said,

"How about we eat together, I cook, but you wash the dishes and do the laundry."

Chen Anan sighed helplessly. The old lady was really shrewd. This was equivalent to sending out all the work in the house because of her arrival.

But compared to not having food to eat, washing dishes and laundry are nothing. She can still do this job. (End of chapter)
