Li Shuhua slapped his second son on the head. What was this fool thinking?
Is he the kind of father who would covet his children's things?
Li Shuhua wrapped the wild ginseng in clothes again and handed it to Li Wenjing.
"Since you found this thing, it's yours. Keep it well and I'll give it to you as a dowry in the future."
Li Wenjing: ...
She didn't want to get married, so she didn't need a dowry, but she knew she couldn't say this, otherwise her parents would definitely not be able to sleep at night.
In this era, boys and girls have to get married when they reach a certain age. After all, men should get married when they are old enough and women should get married when they are old enough. Otherwise, the spit of the neighbors around them will drown them.
Li Wenjing's liking for Li Shuhua and Xia Yulan increased.
These are the parents who truly care about their children. If it were Li Jianguo and Liu Jinju, they would have put the money into their pockets long ago.
"Dad, I'll leave this wild ginseng to you."
She glanced at Li Yuanshan again and said, "Second brother is not young anymore. We can't let him farm for the rest of his life. This ginseng is dead. We should sell it or give it away to buy him a job."
Li Wenjing's words touched the hearts of Li Shuhua and Xia Yulan.
The second son in their family doesn't talk much, but he is a high school student after all. It is really unfair to him to make him work in the fields every day.
But what could they do? They were all farmers and had no connections. Their family didn't have much money at that time, so how could they buy him a job?
Now that his daughter brought it up, his thoughts became more active.
If we were to ask which family in their Qingshan Brigade has the widest network of connections, it would definitely be the Chen family.
But because Li Yuerong broke off the engagement, things didn't go so well.
However, thinking of the previous relationship between the two families, he felt that he could still give it a try.
No matter what he thought, this wild ginseng looked to be at least a hundred years old and was very rare. He didn't want his daughter to regret it in the future, or to think that they, as parents, were biased towards the boy in the family.
"Jingjing, are you sure you want to use this wild ginseng to exchange for your second brother's job?"
Li Wenjing nodded again.
In fact, at the beginning she originally wanted her second brother to take the college entrance examination with her, but later when they chatted, she found that her second brother was not interested in it.
His second brother wanted to join the army like his eldest brother, but he knew in his heart that there was already someone in the family who had joined the army, and it was because of his uncle's relationship.
It was impossible for him to go there again, so he pursued working in the city and having a formal job.
But he also knew the situation at home and never told anyone.
I was chatting with Li Wenjing today, and for some reason, I ended up telling her what I was really thinking.
Li Yuanshan looked at Li Wenjing with red eyes, and there were thousands of horses running through his heart.
It is said that men don't shed tears easily, but they do when they are heartbroken.
Li Yuanshan shed tears, but they were not tears of sadness, but tears of joy and emotion.
Regardless of whether this matter succeeds or not, he will remember his sister's kindness and keep it in his heart forever. He will definitely repay his sister when he has the chance in the future.
Li Shuhua really didn't expect that his own daughter would continue to bring them surprises.
He turned his gaze to Li Yuanshan again: "Shanzi, do you want to go to the city to work?"
He said that he would keep a close eye on his son's reaction in the future, for fear of missing any detail.
Li Yuanshan wanted to blurt out that he wanted to join the army, he wanted to serve his country, and he wanted to be supported by his family like his elder brother.
But he knew that he couldn't make things difficult for his father, and it was already good enough that he could go to work in the city.
"Yes, I want to go!"
Li Shuhua looked at his second son's reaction. It is said that no one knows a child better than his mother. In fact, a father also knows his son's thoughts.
He wanted to swallow his pride and go to the Chen family to ask.
What if I could fulfill my second son’s dream?
He looked at his second son and began to exaggerate: "Shanzi, no matter whether this succeeds or not, no matter what you do in the future or what position you achieve, you must never forget that your original opportunity was fought for by your sister!"
Xia Yulan also spoke up: "What your father said is what I want to say. You have to understand that if your sister hadn't found the wild ginseng, there would be no chance in the first place!"
Li Wenjing...
Before the fate was even decided, her parents had already started brainwashing her second brother.
She suddenly felt a little embarrassed, right?
Li Shuhua turned to Li Yuanbing and said, "Bingzi, you guys have to keep the fact that you found wild ginseng in the mountains a secret to yourself and not tell anyone!"
Li Yuanshan and Li Wenjing are both grown up, and they know what is more important.
But Li Yuanbing is still young, and I'm afraid that he won't be able to control his mouth and tell others about family matters, which will cause jealousy and envy, and bring disaster to the family.
Although Li Yuanbing is young, he is not stupid.
"I understand. I won't tell anyone. If I do, I won't have meat to eat for the rest of my life!"
This is the heaviest punishment the little guy can think of. In this day and age, being able to eat meat is everyone's dream, whether they are children or adults.
Li Shuhua didn't stay long. He put on his clothes and went to Chen's house.
Chen Yibin's injury has almost healed and he will be able to return to the team soon.
The leader has called him many times to inquire about the situation.
He was a little shocked to see Li Shuhua coming so late.
"Uncle, what brings you here so late?"
Li Shuhua originally wanted to come to Chen's house to talk about it, but then he thought about the other people in the Chen family. If this matter got out, their family would be in trouble, so he temporarily changed his mind.
"Yibin, uncle wants to talk to you about something. Can you come to my house?"
When Chen Yibin heard about going to Li's house, he agreed without thinking, thinking about meeting the little girl.
"good."
The two of them went around in circles and returned to the Li family.
Fortunately, they had electricity at home, and although the light bulbs were dim, they were much better than candles and kerosene lamps.
Chen Yibin came to Li's house and successfully saw the little girl he had been thinking about. He didn't know if it was because he hadn't seen her for a long time, or because of the light, but he felt that the little girl had become much whiter and more beautiful.
Chen Yibin was actually not mistaken. Ever since Li Wenjing drank the upgraded spiritual spring water, her skin had become several shades whiter than before. In addition, due to her practice, her whole aura had changed.
Li Shuhua directly took out the wild ginseng that he had just collected.
After seeing the wild ginseng, Chen Yibin's expression changed. He wanted to say something but held back, looking as if he wanted to say something but was hesitant.
In the end, he made up his mind and said it directly.
"Uncle, this wild ginseng..."
Li Shuhua wanted to ask someone to do something for him, so he told the truth.
"Jingjing dug this wild ginseng up from the mountain today. Uncle was thinking since you know a lot of people, could you use it to help Shanzi improve his future?"
He did not say that he would change Li Yuanshan's job, but talked about his future. He hoped that things would develop as he expected and that his second son would get what he wanted.
