A blessing in disguise.

Now we have the money to hire someone to build a house.

Seeing that everything was fine, the villagers went back.

"Brother Mingqing, is it really serious enough to warrant jail time?"

"Xiaobao is a minor. No one was killed at such a young age. At most, he should be given some ideological education."

"I have to go back and talk to our two sons. Tell them to be careful with fire and not set off firecrackers and burn the house down. It's too dangerous."

After saying this, Sun Jiaxue quickened her pace and walked back.

Li Mingqing held her back and said, "Wife, there is no haystack or firewood at our door. My son and I have told you to be careful before. Don't worry."

"I see that the villagers are living better and better every year, but Li Goudan is standing still."

"Wife, he's not standing still, he's regressing."

If Li Goudan had lived an honest life with Wang Xiaoya, there wouldn't have been so many twists and turns.

He and Liu Xiang quarreled every day.

With Wu Xiaobao setting the fire, the couple might have their own ulterior motives.

The villagers tacitly went to Lao Li's house to continue watching TV.

This time we didn't watch TV but chatted about what happened just now.

Li Mingqing and Sun Jiaxue did not go to the old house but returned to the new house.

There are too many people in the old house and there is no room for standing.

Brothers Xiaohong and Xiaozhe trotted into the house, "Dad, are there any more fireworks?"

"Yes, it's in the west room. Go get it yourself."

"Okay."

Sun Jiaxue shouted, "Xiaohong, Xiaozhe, don't be anxious. Come here. I have something to tell you."

"Mom, what's going on?"

"You can't set off firecrackers in haystacks or places with hay."

"Yeah, my brothers are waiting for us outside, so I'll go out first."

The two brothers went to the west room, got the firecrackers and ran out.

After returning to the village, I was like a monkey going into the mountains.

After a while, Li Lizhu came over with Erniu and Sanniu.

"Second sister-in-law, come in and sit down."

"The house is full of people, all talking about the arson. I just heard from my mother that my two nephews saw the Wu family's grandson quietly go to the wheat field, but they didn't see the fire with their own eyes."

"It's really hard to see in the dark."

"I usually think Wu Xiaobao is quite honest. He goes to the fields with his father to help every day. I didn't expect him to be so ruthless when he got into trouble."

Li Mingqing suddenly remembered that Wu Xiaobao pushed Li Xiaowei during the last earthquake.

The child must be dissatisfied with Liu Xiang.

I think it’s because of Li Xiaowei that I don’t go home to take care of him.

If we don't intervene in time, who knows what he will do in the future.

But it seems that Wu Liqiang's education of him is pretty good.

It's just that his attitude towards Liu Xiang is a bit radical.

It is understandable. After all, with a green hat on his head, no one can calmly let his son continue to recognize his mother.

The other side.

Wu Liqiang beat Wu Xiaobao severely as soon as he got home.

"I'll teach you a lesson. Luckily no one was killed. If someone had died, your life would be over!"

"Dad, I just wanted to give that woman a hard time."

"When did I ever ask you to cause trouble for her? I just asked you to leave her alone. There are some things I can do but you can't. This is a grudge between me and that woman, so don't worry about it."

Wu Xiaobao asked in confusion: "Dad, why?"

"Why so many whys? You'll understand when you grow up. Don't start a fire without thinking. If you say anything else, tell me first."

"Know."

"Hey, this time I got ripped off by that inhuman Li Goudan out of a hundred dollars."

The more Wu Liqiang thought about it, the angrier he became, but he endured it for the sake of his son.

Li Goudan and his family of three were setting up their beds in the village office.

The atmosphere was somewhat solemn, and no one spoke.

——

New Year's Day.

Going from house to house, full of joy.

As soon as Li Mingqing and Sun Jiaxue went out, they saw Zheng Jiefang who came to pay New Year's greetings.

"Sister-in-law, uncle, happy new year."

"Happy New Year."

Liu Zhenzhu smiled and said, "Jiefang dragged me over after dinner."

"You've grown so tall," Sun Jiaxue praised.

"Yeah, it's grown so big in the blink of an eye. When it was first born, it was like a kitten, but at least it gained some weight in the past two years."

As they were talking, Wu Lili came over with her child.

"Zheng's daughter-in-law, you came out to pay New Year's greetings so early. I thought I was the first one out. By the way, don't you plan to find another one at such a young age?"

Liu Zhenzhu said slightly embarrassedly: "No."

Sun Jiaxue quickly changed the subject and said, "Come on, come in and sit down."

"You have to go in, I'm just here to eat candy. But Zhenzhu, you have to take what I just said to heart. You can't be alone all the time. What will you do with Jiefang when Uncle Zheng and Aunt Zheng are gone?"

As soon as Zhang Chengming got closer, he heard his wife say such outrageous words.

He quickly pulled her away.

It’s just that Liu Zhenzhu has a good temper, otherwise the bricks would have been thrown at her.

"Can you please keep your mouth shut? What are you doing on New Year's Day?"

"I just said it casually. I think Uncle Zheng and Aunt Zheng also want Zhenzhu to find someone else."

"There are things a family can say but we can't."

"Okay, stop nagging."

Wu Lili said impatiently, broke free from his hand and shamelessly went to Lao Li's house.

Every Chinese New Year, Li Mingqing would buy melon seeds and various candies.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, there was a constant stream of people coming to our house.

Whether adults or children, everyone wants to come here more often.

Li Mingqing was called home by Li Xiangjun to play poker.

"I spent a huge amount of money on this. To be honest, my mother scolded me after I bought it."

Li Xiangjun said with a smile.

Li Dahua said, "Let me see if I can play this card well. It would be great if I could use the extra money to buy some white flour buns."
