Li Mantun quickly opened the two bottles of wine, poured some for his eldest brother, poured some for himself, and gave the rest to his sons and nephews.
"Uncle, this is not enough, give us that bottle too!" The third brother stretched out his hand to ask Li Mantun to hide the bottle of wine behind him.
"You little kids, just try it. How can you expect to drink four or five bottles of wine? There is loose wine over there. If it is not enough, go and pour it yourself!" Li Mantun opened the third brother's hand. It was good enough for the little brat to drink some loose wine. At his age, he couldn't even afford to eat, and he was still drinking!
The old man nodded in agreement. The remaining bottle was enough for their children to eat for three days.
Several good grandchildren, looking at the half-ounce of wine in the bowl, can't even taste it! They can also turn their drinking capacity into appetite, and eat some meat!
The children were also provided with soda, and the women drank fruit wine, which was sweet and not too strong.
The family happily ate the reunion dinner, feeling extremely satisfied, with happy smiles on their faces
The meal lasted until about three o'clock. Li Mancang's face was red from drinking. He said to his second brother, "Mantun, the temporary worker at our second son Xingye will quit after the Chinese New Year. His father-in-law has contracted a lot of land, so he has to go there. Do you think Xinghu and the others want to work there? Temporary workers can't be converted to regular employees, and it's very tiring, and the salary is not high."
"Let's do it, why not! It's so good! How can we not do it!" Liu Cuihua drank some fruit wine, her face was a little red, and she said excitedly
"I really don't want to work in Xingye anymore. Farming is not as popular as being a worker." Li Mantun asked his second nephew.
"Uncle, I'm quitting. I can't get a permanent job. It's too hard to find a regular job in the city now. I've bought a lot of land. Next year I plan to dig a fish pond and build a greenhouse. It's definitely better than being a temporary worker." The second brother's face is full of confidence in life.
Li Mantun nodded, his eldest brother and his family had already discussed it. Xingye didn't want to work because he bought the land by himself and his family didn't get involved.
His situation is different. He has four sons and he himself is less than 50 years old. If he supports the whole family, the family will not be able to earn much. Besides, the cash income from farming can only be seen in autumn. His salary of a few dollars is not enough to support the whole family throughout the year.
The four sons all looked at Li Mantun and said, "Xinghu, you are the eldest in the family, so I will take care of you first, and we will take over the next one when there is a chance."
The other sons were a little disappointed, but since there was only one job, it was reasonable to let the eldest brother go first.
"Dad, let our second brother Xingyuan go. He'll find a job in a few days and might be able to find a good match!" Li Xinghu said naively. His wife Xiulan lowered her head quietly and said nothing.
Xingyuan is already 23 after the Chinese New Year. He had dated several people before, but none of them worked out. The girls with good conditions looked down on him because he was the second child. The eldest child is loved and the youngest child is spoiled. He would not be reborn as a half-child. The middle child is usually ignored by their mother.
He can't take advantage of his father's family when he is young, and his mother-in-law won't take much care of him when he is young, so most girls don't like to date the middle son.
The conditions were not good enough, so Liu Cuihua didn't like it and the marriage was delayed.
Li Xingyuan didn't expect his elder brother to give him the job. "No need, elder brother, you go. You are the eldest son in the family, and you have children. You have a heavy burden. You go!"
"I'm worried about your sister-in-law and her children. We still have so much land at home. You go. We are brothers. It doesn't matter who goes." Li Xinghu patted his second brother's shoulder. He hoped that his brothers were all doing well.
Li Xingyuan lowered his head quickly, tears welling up in his eyes. What his elder brother said were all excuses. He said that because he saw that Li Xingyuan was old and was afraid that he would not be able to find a good match.
The elders are all satisfied, the brothers are friendly and respectful to each other, and the family is harmonious. There is no chaos because of this work.
