Chapter 48 Go Home, Daddy Stinks
The next day, the three of them went out to do some shopping.
Everyone was carrying bags and packages home as if they were free.
Lin Qiujuan, who had originally said that she would send her son back to the countryside, no longer mentioned this matter because Li Baojun asked and was told that she could send her son to an orphanage for six yuan per month. The reason why it was so expensive was because Lin Jin was young.
Plus he has to eat at school, so it only costs six dollars.
The older you get, the cheaper it is.
But the child is only one year old and needs someone to serve him when he eats and drinks. Six dollars is really not expensive.
In addition, Li Baojun and his wife have the ability to do so.
So on the day the three of them left, Li Baojun also sent his youngest son to an orphanage.
It's very close to his workplace, only three to five minutes' walk away, not to mention that he rides a bike to and from get off work.
Since my son has a plan, there is no need to send him to the countryside.
Su Zhongguo and the other two also got in the car on their way home, and they were all excited along the way.
Having been away from home for so long, I don’t know if their children miss them, if their wives care about them, or if their parents are worried about them.
They first arrived at the town, but without stopping, they went straight to the place where ox carts were usually parked in the village.
Unfortunately, the three of them were not very lucky and did not encounter the ox cart returning to the village.
In desperation, the three of them had to walk back carrying the large packages on their backs.
Fortunately, the journey was not too far, and they arrived at Lijia Village after walking for more than two hours.
The arrival of the three people quickly alarmed everyone who was working in the fields.
"Are those the two boys from the Kaizong family and the Guixiang family?"
"Hey, it really is them."
"Didn't they say they were caught while out on business? Why are they back?"
The nosy women stopped what they were doing and stared at the three people who came in from outside the village and talked about them.
Almost all the people working in the fields raised their heads and looked towards the village entrance.
As the three of them walked, they became aware of a stream of gazes directed towards them.
Looking up, they saw that the people working in the fields had stopped what they were doing and were staring at them.
"Brother, do you want to go over and say hello?" Li Baomin stopped unconsciously and asked his elder brother.
Li Baoguo glanced at them and then looked away, "Don't worry, they will come to watch the fun after we go back." He didn't feel unhappy about it, as he would do the same if he were in their place.
The village is so small, they will be here soon, so why bother going out in the sun now?
"oh."
The three of them quickened their pace, crossed the stream, and then headed towards the hillside where their yard was.
Yes, the houses of the Li brothers are all lived in rows, all on the hillside of a mountain. The mountain is not high, and many people live up and down it.
There is also a road leading directly up the mountain, which is very convenient for a tractor or ox cart to pass through.
However, those who are close are all relatives within the third generation.
"Mom, mom, we are back." Li Baomin was sharp-eyed and saw his mother sitting under the big tree at the gate of the courtyard chatting with someone from a distance. So he shouted loudly.
This shout startled everyone.
When Aunt Li heard the familiar voice, she stood up and saw her son's silly look at a glance.
"You fool, you finally knew to come back." Aunt Li was so happy, "Old lady, old lady, your husband and his family are back, hurry up and go to greet them."
After saying that, she ran towards her sons.
Naturally, Li's mother also saw Su Zhongguo, and she followed her sister-in-law to greet him, holding her child.
Su Jiani was playing by herself, looking up at the sky and down at the ground, when she was startled by a loud voice. If her grandmother hadn't held her tightly, she would have been scared to the ground.
[Oh my, you blind man, just come back, why are you yelling?] The little girl started to complain in her heart.
[If you didn't know, you might think bandits had entered the village.]
Because of the distance, Su Zhongguo might not be able to hear his daughter's thoughts, but when he got closer, his longing for her faded.
That’s right, it was diluted by my daughter.
This little girl, not only did she not say she missed me after not seeing me for so long, she even disliked me and the others for scaring her.
No conscience at all.
"Jiani, Jiani, look, your father is back." Mother Li came closer with the child in her arms and began to push her forward, as if she was afraid that the child's father would not recognize her.
"Grandma, please be careful. Hold me tight, I'm scared." Su Jiani was so anxious, "I know Dad is back. I'm your granddaughter. Please don't abandon your granddaughter just because you have a son-in-law."
Well, Su Zhongguo no longer wants this child.
When other people’s children see their fathers, they all scream, jump and want to be hugged.
Only she spoke with a tone full of disgust.
"Mom, I'm carrying something in my hands. You hold Jiani tightly. We'll talk when we get home." Su Zhongguo didn't want to hear the disgust in his daughter's words, so he let her be quiet first.
Mother Li also knew that she was a little excited. "Okay, go home, go home. Guixiang has been thinking about you all these days. Now that you are finally back, she can rest assured."
Since they were not in the village, there was naturally a lot of gossip in the village.
As the daughter-in-law of several of them, I have naturally heard a lot of rumors.
The same thing happened to Aunt Li. Mao Hailing and Zhang Sanni rushed out of the house as soon as they heard that their husbands had returned.
Their movements were no slower than the mother-in-law who was running in front.
So, they came to their men, looking them up and down with red eyes.
"I'm glad you're back safely, I'm glad you're back safely." Although they received the letter of safety sent by Baojun, they were naturally worried because they didn't see him.
Now seeing them come back safely makes me happier than anything else.
"Wife." The two brothers Li Baoguo smiled innocently at their wives.
He even forgot about his mother.
She escorted the three of them back to their respective homes and said, "Sister-in-law, I won't keep you here. Let them wash up and then our two families can get together." Mother Li said to her sister-in-law first.
"Okay, I'll listen to you. We'll talk about it later. Come to my house for dinner tonight and invite Kailiang and the others. It's a happy occasion that they're back. Let them have a good drink in the evening." Aunt Li was also a straightforward person and agreed immediately.
There is no time to deal with others at this time.
"good."
Li Yan, who was originally at home chatting with her cousin, also walked home with her child.
Now that her elder and second brothers have returned, she naturally has to go back and take a closer look and ask.
After calling someone, Li Yan took Sui Sui away.
After returning to his yard, Su Zhongguo put the things on the big table in the main hall.
"Mom, let me hug Jiani. I miss this little girl so much when I'm not at home." As he said that, Su Zhongguo walked forward to hug her.
But Su Jiani had a certain temper, so naturally she didn't want her father to hug her at this time.
[Dad, please let me go. Can't you smell your own stench? Don't hug me, don't hug me.]
She was babbling in resistance, but Su Zhongguo wanted to play a trick on her and would not let her go.
After holding her, he patted her little butt a few times and said, "Daddy's sweet baby, do you miss daddy?"
"Come, let daddy kiss you. Daddy misses you so much." As he said that, he kissed the little face with his big mouth that had smoked.
After the kiss, she giggled.
Li Guixiang, who could hear her daughter's thoughts, also covered her mouth and laughed. Her daughter has been letting herself go these days, and asks her grandmother to take her out to listen to gossip every day. As her mother, she doesn't even want to hug her.
Should.
[Ah, ah, Dad, it really stinks, please clean it up quickly, I'm almost suffocating.]
In the end, Li Guixiang couldn't bear it anymore and rescued Su Jiani from her father.
"Okay, go wash your face. Aren't you hungry or tired after sitting in the car for a whole day?" What a guy. He knew that his daughter disliked him, but he still teased her.
Su Zhongguo looked resentful, thinking that his wife also disliked him, "Wife, do you dislike me too?"
Mother Li was confused as she listened. What were the couple talking about?
"Okay, you can hold the baby for a while. Clean up first. Mom will make you a bowl of noodles. Dinner will be ready in a while." It's too late to make lunch, but there's still some time for dinner.
Having said that, she left the main room and went to the kitchen nearby, hoping to avoid seeing it.
Without his elders, Su Zhongguo let himself go and hugged his wife, "Guixiang, I miss you. Come with me to the city in the future."
Li Guixiang didn't expect that he would hug her, and now her daughter was pressed right in the middle.
She was squeezed so hard that she kept crying out.
But the couple had no time to pay attention to her at this time, and ignored her even when she called them.
"The child is still here."
"She's right here, what does she know?"
He held her for a long time, until Su Jiani started crying, and then Su Zhongguo let go of his wife.
"Humph, you little rascal, you only know how to bully your dad. It's been a long time since your dad saw your mom. What's wrong with hugging her for a while?"
"Ah, you can hold me, but don't take me with you. Don't you know you stink?" Su Jiani said with disgust.
It's okay for ordinary children, because adults can't understand their language anyway.
However, Su Jiani was different. Her disgust went straight to her parents' hearts. At this time, Su Zhongguo was so angry with her that he almost wanted to eat his own son.
"You dislike me, okay, okay, good job, just wait for me."
Seeing the father and daughter bickering, Li Guixiang watched the show from the side in a very unkind manner. She laughed for a long time before separating the two.
"Okay, go clean up quickly. Mom's noodles will probably be ready soon. Come fill your stomach."
With the old mother's persuasion, the father and daughter finally stopped bickering.
Su Jiani just snorted and turned her head away, not looking at her eccentric father.
At the small table under the eaves, Su Zhongguo ate noodles made by his mother-in-law, and while eating, he told them about his experiences outside these days.
When they heard him talk about the prosperity of Shenzhen, they both exclaimed in amazement.
Li Guixiang even said that she would go and see it next time.
Only Su Jiani complained in her heart, "What good is there now? Only in the future will it be called a truly prosperous city."
The couple had always known that their daughter came from the future, but this was the first time they heard her talk about these future things.
For a moment, the two stopped and listened to their daughter's internal complaints.
It’s just that Su Jiani doesn’t realize it.
Endless delicious food, endless beautiful scenery, countless crowds, and convenient transportation between Hong Kong and Macau—it's even known as the Golden Triangle. If only my family could own a house in Shenzhen someday, I could become the most beautiful landlady, hehe.
Her inner complaints and yearnings were all heard by her dearest parents.
When Su Jiani grew up and got those countless house deeds, she was stunned.
"It seems that what Zhongguo said about doing business last time is really feasible. Zhongguo, how much money did you make this time?" Li's mother had no other intentions, she just wanted to ask.
It is natural for parents to worry about their children's performance outside.
"Mom, this isn't the final tally yet. I'll tell you all about it with Baoguo and the others tonight, okay?"
All the goods were sold, and of course they also took back the money.
If you keep accounts, you won’t be worried about not being able to calculate how much you have earned.
"Did you three do it together?" Li's mother thought they were two groups, but she didn't expect them to be together.
"Well, Brother Baoguo and Brother Baomin are both very good and sincere. We have similar vision, so we did it together." He also told the two about the money they contributed.
Li Guixiang didn't care, but after learning that her younger brother and sister-in-law were setting up a stall with her, she felt a little itchy.
"Zhongguo, can you set up a stall like your sister-in-law in the future?" If possible, she also wanted to go to the city for a walk.
Su Zhongguo was of course unwilling to do so. Her daughter was still young, and she didn't want the couple to focus on business and ignore her.
"Wait a little longer. Although we are close to City B, the policy has not been implemented yet. When I can open a shop, I will build a shop for you. This will make it more convenient for you to take care of the children." Su Zhongguo actually had not thought about this.
He just remembered it when it was mentioned just now.
But this matter will wait for a while. Once he can get the business license from the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, he will bring his whole family to the city.
Don’t ask why you are building a house in the village when you know you are going to the city.
You know, these days, no matter how good the house in the city is, it is not home to the rural people. Only when they have their own house in the countryside can they feel that they have their own roots.
Su Zhongguo and Li Guixiang have no regrets about building a house in the village. Instead, they plan to return to the village to live out their retirement when their children grow up.
"That's right, don't make things more complicated. Let's wait until Jiani is older." Mother Li also spoke up for her son-in-law.
On the other side, the same scene as Su Zhongguo's was happening in the home of the Li Baoguo brothers.
But there were more people surrounding the two of them.
"Baoguo, is your business really successful?" After waiting for her sons to eat, the first question Aunt Li asked was what the whole family was most worried about.
"Don't worry, Mom. We have succeeded this time, and it's a great success." Li Baoguo's face was filled with a big smile.
There is no longer any worry or fear as when I first left the village.
When they came back this time, they were all proud. At least they successfully brought back money, and their family’s life in the future would not be worse than others.
Their parents no longer have to worry about them, and they can finally enjoy their lives.
"Yes, mother, we made a lot of money, but we haven't settled the accounts yet. We thought you were worried at home, so we brought the money and accounts back and planned to settle the accounts in front of you later." Li Baomin also looked proud.
Now that I have made something of myself outside, I want to make my parents happy and proud when I get home.
Let the parents and daughter-in-law all fight for face.
"Is that so? Then let's talk about this later when your second uncle comes. Mom won't ask any more questions. But you've lost weight too. Didn't you eat or drink well when you were out?"
Mothers are more concerned about their sons' health.
The two daughters-in-law had no right to speak at this time, after all, their mother had not finished asking questions.
"How can we eat and drink well?" Li Baoguo told Lin Qiujuan about setting up a stall.
Indeed, without anyone to take good care of them, these grown men had a pretty rough life.
As soon as these words were spoken, the wives of both men had ideas.
