Li Xiangdong lived a wealthy life until sixty, with a house full of children and grandchildren, but one day he was sent to the heavens by the two green hats his wife gave him.
When he opened ...
Park Young kicked him, "You dare mention the police?"
Driver Huang Dafa winced in pain, yelling, "Damn it, you just wait..."
Park Young wanted to punch him again, but Zhang Lu stopped her, saying, "Don't waste time, hurry up and go, saving people is the priority!"

Lijiapo.
Two years ago, Li Tang returned from the provincial capital and has been working as the factory director of Baiyanghe Food Factory.
In fact, Baiyanghe's products are of good quality and reasonably priced, and there are always new products being produced, so business has always been very good.
When Men Shifang suddenly arrived, Li Xiangdong said that they had a lot of unsold goods that they couldn't sell, which almost drove Li Tang crazy with worry.
He mobilized goods from warehouses in Dongfang City, Yibai City, and several nearby counties and cities overnight to gather enough supplies.
As the large truck rumbled away, carrying away all the goods, Li Tang's left eyelid twitched incessantly.
Xue Ran patted his bottom, stood up, and said to Li Tang with a smile, "Director Li, I've helped you sell so many goods, shouldn't you treat me to a meal?"
To be honest, Li Tang looked down on Xue Ran, who was a sleazy and uncouth man.
However, they did indeed act as a go-between, introducing them to a large order. If a salesperson had that kind of performance, they would definitely earn several thousand yuan in commission.
After several years of experience, Li Tang was no longer the ordinary people who wore their emotions on their sleeves.
He smiled at Xue Ran, "Of course!"
Li Tang originally wanted to eat at the village restaurant, but Xue Ran insisted on eating at home. Li Tang couldn't persuade him otherwise, so he had the restaurant prepare the food and deliver it to Guo Yuxi's house.
This house was bought by the Guo family for Guo Yuxi's wedding, so Guo Jinfang and others did not live here.
After the food was placed on the plates and set on the table, Xue Ran took out a bottle of Jiannanchun liquor that had been opened earlier and filled the wine glasses in front of each of them.
There are a lot of people here today.
Guo Haiguang, Guo Jinfang, Li Tang, Li Chang, Li Guoqing, Zhao Suixin, Zhao Xiaojun, and others were all present.
The table where the woman was seated was for the family members of each household. Xue Ran also asked Guo Yuxi to invite He Xiaohong and Zhao Sufang over.
There were separate tables for men and women, where everyone was eating and drinking, creating a lively atmosphere.
At the end of the meal, Xue Yuyu brought out a bowl of sweet soup and served a bowl to everyone.
Women love sweets, and this sweet soup was indeed delicious; in no time, each of them finished a bowl.
The men, having drunk too much, each drank two bowls to sober up.
A little while later, Zhao Sufang rubbed her head and said she was sleepy. Liu Ju, her cheeks flushed, laughed and said to her, "Sixth Sister-in-law, you were drinking rice wine just now! How come you can't hold your liquor..."
She was teasing Zhao Sufang when, before she could finish her sentence, she collapsed onto the dining table with a thud.
The women burst into laughter.
Zhao Sufang laughed until tears streamed down her face. She wiped them away with her hand, saying, "Look at her, this is all she can drink, and she still dares to make fun of me?"
Xue Yuyu didn't laugh. She hurriedly came over to help Liu Ju, "Auntie, Auntie? Let me help you to your room to sleep!"
But Liu Ju was fast asleep and couldn't be lifted up.
The people at the table burst into laughter again, praising Xue Yuyu for being such a good girl, immediately helping her to rest when she saw her future mother-in-law was drunk.
Xue Yuyu couldn't lift Liu Ju up, so she went to another room to call Guo Yuxi for help.
To everyone's surprise, in just a short while, all the women at the table, just like Liu Ju, started yawning.
"Ha-ho-"
"Ha~"
"Ha~"
"Oh dear, I feel a little sleepy."
"Me too, my eyelids are too heavy to keep open, I'm so sleepy..."
The sound of yawns rose and fell incessantly.
Just then, Guo Yuxi lifted the curtain and came in. When the men in the outer room saw the women yawning, before they could even make fun of them, they suddenly felt sleepy and waves of drowsiness washed over them.
Guo Yuxi, "Yuyu, let's get my mom... oh dear, she's so sleepy..."
He simply went limp and fell asleep.
Upon seeing his son suddenly fall asleep, Guo Jinfang laughed and scolded, "This ignorant brat, just you wait..."
"Thump~"
Guo Jinfang had only taken two steps when he also fell asleep.
However, Guo Jinfang fell in a relatively good position; he was walking along the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed), so he fell right onto it.
Then one after another, people kept falling asleep.
More accurately, they seemed to have fainted.
In the end, the only ones still conscious in the room were Xue Ran and his daughter Xue Yuyu, and Men Shifang's two subordinates.
Xue Ran patted Guo Jinfang's face, who was lying next to her, "Hey, wake up! Wake up!"
Guo Jinfang remained motionless, as if he were dead.
Xue Ran asked the two men beside her, "Won't this medicine kill someone instantly?"
"No, it will only make them fall into a deep sleep for one night."
Xue Yuyu was a little nervous. She kicked everyone in the room one by one, and only felt relieved when she saw that they were all sleeping like dead pigs.
"How's Li Xiangdong doing?"
"Don't worry, the boss said he's already under control."
Xue Ran breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good!"
Xue Yuyu grabbed Xue Ran's arm, "Dad, now that we've drugged them all, let's go!"
As she spoke, she glanced at the wall clock. "Let's go now. By the time they wake up, we'll be far away!"
Unexpectedly, Xue Ran firmly shook his head.
"no!"
Xue Yuyu became anxious, "Why not?!"
If they wake up, it will definitely be exposed that I drugged them in the sweet soup!
Xue Ran, unusually affectionate, stroked her daughter's thick, raven-black hair. "Silly girl, have you forgotten what your mother said?"
What did her mother say before she died?
But can those things be taken seriously?
Seeing the doubt in her daughter's eyes, Xue Ran said firmly, "Your mother wouldn't lie to me, so if she says it's true, it definitely is!"
Xue Yuyu found it hard to describe how her father used her mother as an analogy.
“Daughter, you don’t want us to keep doing this kind of swindling business, do you? I’ve already talked to the eldest brother. As long as we get our hands on Old Lady Jiang’s gold, he’ll give us half and set us free!”
Xue Yuyu suddenly gasped for breath, "What? Father, are you telling the truth?!"
"Of course! You can ask these two older brothers if you don't believe me."
The two older men ignored the ambiguous look Xue Yuyu gave them, and instead casually asked Xue Ran, "When are we going to dig for gold?"
The voice was filled with excitement and exhilaration.
Xue Ran smiled cautiously, "There's no rush, we still need to bring two more people over."
"who?"
"Dr. Gu and Granny Jiang!"
————
Grandma Jiang hasn't actually lived in Quanshui Village for the past few years.
She spends most of her time in Douzui'er Hutong.
Dr. Gu stayed by her side the whole time.
Recently, it was only because the Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching that Li Xiangdong took me to Lijiapo to celebrate the festival.
