When the first rays of morning light broke through the clouds, everyone had already gotten up and packed up.
"Dad, Mom, I have something to do and won't be going to work this morning. Remember to ask for leave from the scorekeeper." Wen Jianguo put down the shredded potatoes and spoke calmly.
Cui Yulan snorted, "What's wrong? What are you going to do today?" How could she not know what was going on.
Wen Wan saw this and said with a smile, "Mom, I promised to exchange some mountain products such as red dates and walnuts for my colleagues. I need my brother to accompany me."
After saying that, without waiting for Cui Yulan and Wen Dafu to speak, he said calmly: "Don't worry, I'm not selling it on the black market. I'll just exchange it for Sister Yumei."
Hearing Li Yumei's name, Cui Yulan nodded in agreement, "As you should, Li Yumei treats you well."
My daughter handles things properly. As a newcomer, she has established good relationships with her colleagues at the unit so that they can help each other if there is any problem.
"Xiao Wan, don't just bring things for Li Yumei. Help other colleagues to change some too." Cui Yulan added worriedly.
Wen Wan picked up the bowl and nodded obediently, "Mom, I'll listen to you."
Well, she didn't go against her parents' words and sell things in the black market.
After dinner, Cui Yulan and Wen Dafu picked up their hoes and backpacks and went out.
Wen Jianguo breathed a sigh of relief and patted his chest, "Xiao Wan, luckily you came to my rescue just now, I was almost scared to death."
"Brother, don't be so timid. What we are doing requires courage and carefulness." Wen Wan said seriously.
Wen Jianguo patted his chest and said, "Xiao Wan, don't worry. I was afraid that Mom wouldn't be able to accept it and would be too angry."
How should I put it? His fear of his mother stems from the fact that he has been disciplined too many times since he was a child, but outside, he is a strong man.
Wen Guan thought about it and it was true. His elder brother was well regarded in the village. He was hardworking and had a quick mind.
Wait until the kitchen is cleaned up.
Wen Wan led Wen Jianguo to the corner of the backyard and said, "Brother, pick this up and we'll go from the back."
"Okay." Wen Jianguo didn't ask where it came from. He took the shoulder pole next to him and walked away.
Anyway, he knew Xiao Wan was capable, and he went to the county town to attend high school, so three or four of the friends he knew must be very capable.
When they were halfway there, Wen Jianguo knew the destination and burst into laughter.
"Xiao Wan, you really did not make a wrong choice by choosing Er Ni and her husband."
Wen Wan raised an eyebrow, "Why, brother, do you know the location of their house?"
In her memory, her elder brother and Liu Erni did not spend much time together and could only be considered acquaintances.
Wen Jianguo shook the carrying pole and said, "I know. My father and I helped make the cabinets and tables for their house."
"I haven't heard of it."
"Do you still remember the cured rabbit and cured chicken we ate a few years ago?" Wen Jianguo joked with a smile.
Wen Guan thought about it and nodded. That was true. That was the year he ate the most meat.
"That's the compensation that Erni and the others paid us for making the cabinets," Wen Jianguo admitted.
Wen Wan frowned slightly, "I remember when I went home, you told me that you set a trap in the mountains to catch him, and asked me not to tell anyone."
"Well... well... is there one?" Wen Jianguo's eyes were evasive, and he shook his head to deny it.
When he said that at that time, he was hoping that Xiao Wan would be convinced that he was the big brother.
Wen Guan laughed and gave Wen Jianguo a look, letting the other party figure it out for himself.
