Lu Wensheng didn't believe his sweet words. If men's words could be trusted, then even sows could climb trees!
Not wanting to see him jumping up and down in the courtyard like a monkey, he said unhappily:
"Okay, stop talking nonsense. Why don't you go to the captain's house and explain things clearly? Do you want to wait to be beaten?"
Ma Yingjie nodded: "Yes, yes, yes, I'll be back soon!"
After saying that, he ran out happily. Dahua glanced at Lu Wensheng and followed him resignedly...
Lu Hao was destined to come up empty-handed, as the captain was currently at the matchmaker's house discussing the conditions for finding a brother-in-law!
It was Xiaodouzi who came out to open the door.
"Brother Xiao Luzi, why are you back again?"
Ma Yingjie touched his head as he wished: "I came to find your father, where is he?"
Xiao Douzi opened the door and led Lu Hao in, saying as they walked: "My dad said he was going to Grandma Hua's house and asked my brother and I to stay at home to look after the door."
Ma Yingjie looked around but didn't see Qian Juan: "Where's your mother?" Why did she let a child come out to open the door in the middle of the night?
Xiao Douzi subconsciously leaned close to Ma Yingjie's ear and whispered:
"My parents and my aunt had a big fight last night, and then my father took my mother and my aunt to the village chief's grandfather's house overnight. After returning, my mother kept crying and went back to my grandmother's house before dawn today."
Lu Hao stretched out his voice: "Oh~"
I rushed back to my mother's house...
Don't mention it, this little bean speaks quite logically
"Brother Xiao Luzi, come in and wait. Your brother is still in the room!" His father told him to watch his brother sleep before he left.
Ma Yingjie nodded: "Okay, let's go inside and wait."
The big spotted dog was unfamiliar with the place and didn't follow them in. Instead, it turned around and found a warm place near the stove to lie down.
The little dog Dan in the room lay obediently on the windowsill and looked out. When he saw that it was his brother who gave him candy, he was very happy and clucked like a hen.
Xiao Douzi first let Lu Hao sit on the kang, took off his shoes, and then climbed onto the kang himself and played with his brother while talking to Lu Hao in a casual manner.
Lu Hao had been waiting for nearly an hour but the captain still hadn't come back. Xiaodouzi and Xiaogoudan were so sleepy that they were leaning against each other and dozing off.
There was no other way, Ma Yingjie had to spread out the quilts for them, blow the kerosene lamp, and rack his brains to tell stories to coax the two brothers to sleep.
————————
The captain was chatting animatedly with the matchmaker Hua at the moment. The two of them were screening good young men from the surrounding villages one by one. Once they started chatting, they forgot the time and even forgot that his wife had already returned to her parents' home.
He subconsciously glanced at his watch and found that it was already late at night. He suddenly slapped his forehead and rushed out in a hurry:
"Oh no, oh no, the two kids are home alone, I totally forgot about it! Aunt Hua, let's talk about it tomorrow. I have to go home to see the kids, I hope nothing happens to them."
The matchmaker yawned: "Okay, okay, you go quickly!"
Damn it! I almost died from being tortured by this old woman...
Li Fugui rushed back home in one breath, and was not so worried when he saw that the door had been locked from the inside: Xiaodouzi has grown up and even knows to lock the door.
He had no choice but to climb over the wall. As soon as he jumped down, he saw a pair of blue eyes staring at him at the kitchen door:
"Oh my god!" There's a wolf!
He shone the flashlight over there tremblingly and saw clearly that it was Ma Yingjie's dog.
Li Fugui took a deep breath: "Oh my god, Dahua, you scared me to death..."
Hmm? That's not right. Why is Dahua at their house? It must be that Ma Yingjie ran too fast and forgot the dog at home.
Thinking that Ma Yingjie must be asleep by now, he didn't care about it and thought about sending him shares tomorrow! He walked straight to the main house. There was no light in the house, so he might have gone to bed.
Li Fugui tiptoed into the room and lit the kerosene lamp. He saw three heads, one big and two small, sleeping soundly in a neat row on the kang.
Huh? Why is Ma Yingjie back again?
He was relieved to see that both kids were fine. He was scared to death!
Thanks to Ma Yingjie, otherwise these two children wouldn't know how to sleep.
I looked at the watch and it was already early morning. I didn't wake anyone up. I simply spread my quilt at the end of the kang and went to sleep. I'll talk about it tomorrow if there is anything.
The slaughtering of pigs at the educated youth site was very busy and the work was clearly divided. Some were dealing with the internal organs, some were removing the bones, some were scraping the hair, and some were cutting the meat.
Of course, the master chef was still Li Sihai. Han Muchen also came out of the house to help and learned very seriously from Meng Qingtang.
After all, they will have to cook the pigs themselves tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.
It was already late at night when Han Muchen finished his work. He then realized that Ma Yingjie was not at home. He wiped his hands and asked:
"Where's Xiao Luzi?"
Lu Wensheng winked at Shen Lingling and signaled her to speak.
Shen Lingling immediately said: "Oh, he...he went to the captain's house to ask for leave for you. It was probably too late and the captain kept him overnight. Don't worry."
Han Muchen nodded: "Yes."
He was not worried at all. That kid always had a good time wherever he went.
Then he said to Li Sihai next to him: "Brother Sihai, stay at my place tonight. We can leave together tomorrow."
Li Sihai didn't care, it didn't matter where he lived, so he agreed: "Okay, then go back to sleep quickly, you have an exam tomorrow!"
As he said that, he climbed over the wall with Han Muchen. Don’t tell me, don’t tell me, climbing over the wall is really easy...
Meng Qingtang gave them a look of disdain: Tsk, a knave trying to climb over the wall, unlike him, he has a way!
"Then I'll go back too." After saying that, he pushed open the side door and went back.
As for Lu Xie...as usual, Lu Xie sleeps in the cowshed!
When he left, he took the pig liver in the basin with him, and went into the kitchen to get a large bag of salt:
"I'm going to the teacher's house."
Lu Wensheng waved his hand, sent the person away, and then locked the door and went to sleep~
I'm so tired from doing this every day!
Lu Xie also climbed over the wall to get into the cowshed. The teacher must be asleep at this time.
He tiptoed into the house and took out the only casserole, spread a thick layer of salt on the bottom of the pot, then put the processed pork liver in, and poured all the remaining salt into it to cover the liver.
He lit a small pile of wood chips in the corner, and when he was done, he put the casserole on it to start simmering and went into the house to sleep.
In this way, Su Qishan will have hot salt-baked pork liver to eat early tomorrow morning.
