"Where have you been these past two days?"
Li Yurong was almost pissed off at her jerk brother. She thought he had gotten better after lying in bed for half a month, but she didn't expect that it was difficult to change a person's nature and he just disappeared. It was really outrageous.
"I went to the provincial capital to buy saplings."
"Well, you're so bold that you dare to run to the provincial capital alone. I'll beat you to death." Li Yurong picked up a wooden stick and hit him. Xu Jing was not the kind of person who would stand still and take a beating, so he was chased all over the place by Li Yurong.
"Second sister, please control your temper. It would be bad if others saw you."
"Stop right there." The little bastard was quite good at running, and she was determined to break his legs.
"Second sister, can't we talk it over nicely?" Xu Jing was helpless. There were no mobile phones back then, and no one would agree if he told them, so he could only sneak away. "Didn't my eldest sister go live with my fourth sister? You all know about this?"
"What else?" Li Yurong panted and said, "Stop it, you little brat! Wait a minute."
"Just agree not to do it first."
"OK."
Xu Jing still didn't believe her and stood half a meter away from her. "Second sister, let's go back."
"Hmph." Li Yurong threw the stick away and tugged at his arm twice, causing Xu Jing to burst into tears. "Second sister, I was wrong. Let go."
"Let go." Qin Chuan hurried over to pull his arm. "Don't hit him."
Li Yurong looked at the skinny, dark-skinned boy who had followed him. "Who is this?"
"Qin Chuan, from the next village, is a neighbor of Brother Wu Yu's classmate."
"What are you doing going to the provincial capital with him?"
Xu Jing said, "You two let go." His arm was so painful from being pulled.
Later, Li Yurong was stunned to see the orange trees in the abandoned warehouse. "Did you rob the orchard?"
"No, I bought it."
"Where did you get the money to buy the trees?" Li Yurong counted them carefully. "Oh my god, it's over two hundred. If one tree is five yuan, then two hundred trees would be one thousand yuan."
Li Yurong's eyes widened instantly. She pulled the younger brother to her and asked in a low voice, "Did you steal money?"
"No, second sister, do I look like a gangster who has committed crimes?"
You are. Li Yurong knew her brother's character all too well. He had been stealing since he was little, and now that he was in the city, he was still restless and had even started stealing money.
Thinking of this, she was so angry that she almost fainted.
"Second sister, are you okay?" Xu Jing hurriedly tried to calm her down, and it took a lot of effort to help her calm down.
Li Yurong pulled his arm and said, "Whose money did you steal?"
"I really didn't steal it. I earned it."
"You earned it?" Li Yurong looked him up and down, almost looking him in the eye. "Second sister, I went to gamble."
"You little brat are really hopeless." Li Yurong was so angry that she hit him twice. Farmers are usually rough with their hands. She almost twisted Xu Jing's arm to pieces.
"Big sister, please don't do it." Qin Chuan was so distressed watching from the side that he quickly pulled the two apart and protected Li Heng behind him. "Li Heng is really good. He made a lot of money playing big and small betting."
"Qin Chuan, stop talking." Didn't you see that he was so popular that he was fuming.
"Oh my God, what sin did our Li family commit to raise such a little beast?"
Li Yurong was so angry that she burst into tears, her heart broken.
Not to mention Xu Jing, even Qin Chuan was frightened.
After the two looked at each other, Xu Jing said, "Second sister, don't cry. I'm back safely."
Li Yurong was so angry that he picked up a stick and hit him. Qin Chuan quickly reached out to stop him. After a few blows, he was also hit a few times.
"Qin Chuan, let go." Xu Jing's growl didn't make him let go, but instead made him hold on tighter. He looked back, a hint of a smile in his eyes. "I'm fine."
He just wanted to protect him and instinctively didn't want Li Heng to get hurt.
"She just beat me up and then stopped. It's my family's business, don't meddle in it." Xu Jing broke free from his restraints and pulled him behind him. "Second sister, don't be angry. I promise I won't gamble again."
Li Yurong wiped away her tears and said loudly: "What guarantee do you have?"
Xu Jing was helpless. "If I go out gambling again, I'll never get married and live alone. Is this okay?"
That's reasonable.
Li Yurong snorted coldly and waved at him. "Second sister, take a look and see where you are hurt."
"Don't look at me, I'm fine." He deserved the beating, and Qin Chuan was just suffering from it. "I'll buy some bruise medicine and apply it later, and it will be fine."
The brat has thick skin and will be fine.
He should learn a lesson from this, so that he won't get into big trouble in the future and no one will take care of him.
"What are you going to do with the orange tree?"
"After I go through the discharge procedures, I'll hire a tractor and take it to the mountains to plant."
Li Yurong nodded. "Where are you going to plant it?"
"Let's plant the oranges in Qinchuan Village. There's a barren hill to the east of the village. I'll talk to the village chief about acquiring the wasteland and then plant oranges."
"You little brat, you can plant anything on a barren mountain. Why do you need to report me?" Li Yurong poked his face with his finger and said sarcastically, "Have you become stupid from studying?"
"It's just a matter of planting. What you plant can be stolen by others." Only with legitimate development rights can you legally farm the land. "Second sister, come with me."
"I won't clean up your mess." She is not the hardworking elder sister who would let the brat do things.
"Okay then. I'll go with Qin Chuan first."
"Come back here." Li Yurong said, "I give you my all. Let's go to the hospital first."
Xu Jing returned to the hospital and completed the discharge procedures first, then bought some herbal medicine, took off his clothes and applied the medicine.
