Chapter 016 She was the one who told me about the bird eggs, otherwise I wouldn't have known about it...
You might as well just say I'm a fool!
The car belongs to the village chief, and Boss Li knows it.
Li Wenfeng stepped on one leg and pressed the bell. The harsh sound made the hot-tempered Boss Li even more annoyed. He raised his hand and fanned himself twice, and the wind was hot!
Boss Li no longer had the energy to argue with this scoundrel.
He took out a handkerchief and stuffed it into Li Wenfeng's pocket, "Here are four hundred yuan, count it."
Li Wenfeng opened the handkerchief, took the money and returned it to Boss Li.
"No need to count, whatever big brother says is the amount, how can I not trust big brother?"
Boss Li chuckled.
"When are you going to give the rest?" Li Wenfeng asked.
Boss Li looked alert and asked tentatively, "When do you want us to pay it back? It's impossible to pay it back all at once."
"Well, I'll give you an idea."
Li Wenfeng stopped the car, put his arm around Boss Li's shoulders, and squatted on the roadside with Boss Li.
"Although Sang Chen is a temporary worker, he still gets a salary of dozens of dollars a month. If he saves fifty dollars a month, then he will have..."
He glanced at Boss Li.
Boss Li calculated in his mind, "Six hundred."
Li Wenfeng exclaimed, "Big brother should be the one to do the accounting. Accountants are different."
Boss Li, "..."
He didn't think he was being flattered, and was embarrassed.
"Six hundred a year, three years..."
Boss Li continued expressionlessly, "Eighteen hundred."
Li Wenfeng boasted again.
"The salary may increase in the next three years, so it is very likely that the remaining 1,900 yuan will be paid off in less than three years."
He patted Li Lao Da's shoulder happily, "Brother, you will be debt-free by then."
Li Lao Da was tired.
Who forced him to take on a debt of 2,300 yuan?
Staring at his brother as he walked away, Li Lao Da turned around and walked back. When he was almost at the door of his house, he suddenly remembered.
He borrowed the money from his parents and gave it to the
second brother. What would his parents say? His mother couldn't ask him for the money again, right?
He pulled his sweat-soaked shirt, fanned it, and went home.
In the yard, there was chaos.
Old Lady Li held a broom and chased Li Dasao around the yard to beat her.
Li Yuanbai clapped his hands and cheered.
Li Lao Da's head hurt from watching.
"Mom, what are you doing?"
Old Lady Li spat on the ground, "Ask your wife! She beat my grandson so hard early in the morning. Did she eat bear bile?"
Li's wife ran away with her hair in disarray. Hearing this, she sat down on the ground with grievance.
She cried loudly.
"I can't live like this anymore. I have to be beaten even when I discipline my own children!"
Li Laoda glared at her, "Hurry up, what are you doing? Don't you think it's embarrassing?"
"Dad, my mom beat me and my butt was all red. Grandma said that women must be beaten. If they are not beaten, they will not obey. You don't let grandma beat them, so you beat them."
Li Yuanbai handed the broom to Li Laoda.
Li Laoda frowned, "What are you talking about? That's your mother."
"Isn't my mother a woman?" Li Yuanbai glanced at Li's wife.
Li Lao Da lowered his eyes and asked Li Dasao, "Why did you hit him?"
Li Dasao looked at her son who was about to hit her, and she was angry and sad, "If he hadn't pushed the second son's wife down, why would the second son be crazy and ask for money this time? I hit him a few times to teach him a lesson, but he... wanted to hit me!"
"You are right about this, get up, don't sit on the ground, like a shrew, it's ugly."
Li Lao Da motioned Li Dasao to get up, and took the broom and hit Li Yuanbai with his backhand.
"Ah."
Li Yuanbai screamed and ran behind Mrs. Li.
"Mom, get out of the way."
Old Lady Li refused, she hugged Li Yuanbai, "He is only a few years old, what does he know? The second son's wife was pregnant and didn't pay attention. She blamed herself for falling. What does Yuanbai have to do with it? Big brother, you are not allowed to hit my eldest grandson."
"Mom!"
Big brother Li had a headache, "You will spoil him like this! If he didn't push the second son's wife, she wouldn't have a difficult delivery, premature delivery, and heavy bleeding, and the second son wouldn't be so angry."
"If Yuanbai doesn't care anymore, he will not be beaten just once if he does something out of line next time!"
Old Lady Li said, "How can the second son attack his own nephew for the sake of appearance?"
Didn't he already attack his own nephew? !
Big brother Li was so angry that he was powerless.
Seeing that the old lady was protecting him tightly, he planned to go to a time when the old lady was not at home and give him a intensive and severe beating!
Stay away from the second son's house in the future!
How much money is enough to pay for the second son's shamelessness? !
The sweet potato porridge for breakfast, two cucumbers, sprinkled with salt and two drops of sesame oil, is the dish.
Li Wenfeng went to the town, and Mrs. Li did not cook for her son, nor for his wife and children.
The family was eating, and Aunt Song came over with a basket.
She greeted Mrs. Li and went into the second room.
After a while, she came out with a basket, said goodbye and left.
Mrs. Li had a dark face throughout the whole process, and her eyes were glaring at the second room, one knife after another.
She cursed, but she didn't dare to make a fuss at the second room because she was afraid that the second son had not returned to the army.
The second room was quiet, and one could hear some small laughter.
...
Li Wenfeng walked around the town, bought a large cart of miscellaneous things, borrowed a cart from a fellow villager for one dollar, and transported the things back to the village.
He unloaded the goods directly at the village chief's house.
He returned the car, but did not go home. He visited every household in the village with the gifts.
He never went home empty-handed.
Especially to the gossipy wife in the village who had been a strong fighter since he was a child, he would cater to her preferences.
His words and deeds had one meaning.
When he saw his wife and children being bullied, he would help them with a few words.
If his wife and children could say a good word about them, he would double the gifts he would bring next time!
Who wouldn't want free things?
Don't refuse them!
If you say a few words, no one would be against free things. After
a busy day, he gave away all the things.
At the village chief's house, Li Wenfeng left two large front doors and two cotton embroidered handkerchiefs.
"What are these for?"
The village chief pushed it, but it didn't move.
"Uncle Qingshan, this is my gift to you and my aunt."
Li Wenfeng smiled and stuffed it into his arms, "I, your nephew, don't come back once a year, so don't complain that it's too little."
"You kid..."
Li Qingshan held the front door firmly, and with a strong smile, he patted Li Wenfeng on the shoulder.
"...Your service as a soldier was not in vain, you are stronger now."
Li Wenfeng cooperated and clenched his fist, showing his biceps.
The two of them joked for a few words, and Li Wenfeng made it clear.
Li Qingshan frowned, "It's difficult for an honest official to judge family affairs. It's not appropriate for me to interfere in this matter."
"Well, what I mean is that when my aunt is free, she can come to my house and talk to my wife, so that my mother knows that my wife has someone to support her. My mother's temper..."
Li Wenfeng didn't say much, and Li Qingshan understood.
This is not difficult. In the village, sneaking into the house is a common thing.
"Okay, I'll accept this for your aunt."
"Thank you, uncle, thank you aunt, next time I come, I'll bring you some from our troops..."
Li Wenfeng looked around and lowered his voice, "...special supply."
Li Qingshan's eyes lit up.
"Don't worry! With your aunt and I here, your wife and three children will not suffer."
Li Wenfeng expressed his gratitude again.
Back home, Mrs. Li and Mrs. Li were preparing dinner, and Li Yuanbao was turning flower ropes under the shade of the tree.
Seeing him come in, she smiled cutely, wearing a fine cotton skirt with delicate small flowers embroidered on it.
The voice was soft and cute, calling people, "Second uncle, you are back?"
Li Wenfeng had just finished an important task, and was happy. Seeing the cute child, he gave a smile, "What is Yuanbao playing?" "
Turning rope."
Li Yuanbao raised his chubby hands to show him, "Second uncle, do you want to play?"
Seeing this, Li Yuanbo, who had always wanted to play with Li Yuanbao and was always rejected, snorted, "Flatterer!"
Li Yuanbao glared at him, turned around, and went to Li Wenfeng with red eyes to complain.
"Second uncle, he bullied me."
Li Wenfeng glanced over, and Li Yuanbo remembered the kick, his face turned pale, and he waved his hands randomly.
"I didn't! Second uncle did something malicious and tried to please you! She was the one who told me about the bird eggs, otherwise I wouldn't know..."
