Li Chen waved his hand. "It's no big deal. It's a small matter."
The two chatted for a few more sentences, and then Liu Gang invited everyone to walk towards the high-end hotel.
As soon as he entered, Liu Yunxiao sighed, "If there was a place like this in Zichang County, we wouldn't have to go hungry so often."
Back then, if a county-level city wanted to build a high-end hotel, it had to prove that the local consumption level was high enough.
It is obvious that Tang County has proved itself.
But there is none in Zichang County.
There were only state-owned restaurants there, and to eat there you not only had to pay money but also food coupons.
Even though Li Chen and his companions had a lot of national food coupons, they didn't dare to spend them recklessly.
Because they are worried that one day their family will not be able to get tickets.
If that time really comes and we run out of food and all the tickets we have are used up, it will be a real hassle.
So due to careful budgeting, they have been in a state of hunger for more than two years and only have a full meal on special days.
If there were high-end restaurants in Zichang County, with the money they brought, I wouldn't say how much it would cost, but at least they could have one meal a week.
Li Xu smiled and said, "You're often hungry over there. I'll let you eat until you're full every day when you come back. Yunxiao, order more dishes later. Don't save money for your dad."
"I want to order everything on the menu, but I don't think my dad would approve."
Liu Gang glanced at him and said, "As long as you can finish it, I'll give you some."
"Can I eat from now until tonight?"
Li Gang: ...
After a moment of silence, he said unhappily, "I'll give you two hundred yuan later. You two can come over and eat whatever you want, okay?"
Hearing this, Liu Yunxiao was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly, "Okay, of course."
Liu Yunqin interrupted, "Uncle San, there's no place for me?"
"Yes, bring it to Yunqin as well."
Before Liu Yunqin could be happy, Liu Gang continued, "His father is much richer than me. I'll pay 200, and his father will have to pay at least 400. I'll ask his father for it tonight, and you three can eat it."
Liu Yunqin was speechless. Was he at a loss by this calculation?
A table full of meat dishes was ordered for lunch. It was the first time in Xiong Xue's life that she knew what it meant to eat all-you-can-eat meat. She narrowed her eyes with joy.
After returning to the Liu family, while Xiong Xue was playing with the children, Liu Yunxiao told Liu Gang and Li Xu about his plan.
After listening, Liu Gang pondered and said, "In order to show how much our family values Xiong Xue, I will personally invite her elder sister. Don't be idle either. Take some time this afternoon to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some more gifts and bring them over tomorrow.
As for your talk about going to the Xiong family, the key to this matter is not us, but Xiong Xue. Only if we convince her can we go there, otherwise we won’t even know where the gate of the Xiong family is. "
"Your father is right. If you have this plan, go talk to Xiong Xue and see what she thinks." Li Xu agreed.
He had previously learned from Mr. Liu that the Liu family was going to hold a wedding ceremony for Liu Yunxiao and his wife, so he was not surprised now.
In fact, Liu Yunxiao had never thought that Xiong Xue would disagree before. Now that both of them said so, he felt that this was possible. So he thought about it and agreed, "Okay, wait for me for a while, I'll go ask her."
After saying that, he walked over to Xiong Xue and whispered to her.
Even though they were some distance apart, Li Xu could clearly see the look of astonishment on Xiong Xue's face.
He smacked his lips and asked in a low voice, "Uncle Liu, do you think Xiong Xue will agree?"
"Who knows? I only know that if she agrees, we'll go there tomorrow with guns."
It can be seen that he, like Li Chen, believes that the Xiong family will take extreme actions.
Of course, I carry a gun just in case. I won’t shoot anyone unless it’s absolutely necessary.
After all, that is not Tang County. If someone is injured, no one knows whether the local people will favor the Xiong family.
Li Xu nodded, agreeing to carry a gun, and then talked about other topics.
Not long after, Liu Yunxiao came over with a sullen look on his face. "Xiong Xue disagreed with going to the Xiong family. She said she didn't want to see those people."
Li Xu said with a smile, "It's better not to see you, so as not to feel bad. Yunxiao, in this case, I won't ask for leave tomorrow to accompany you."
"Um."
Liu Gang instructed, "Xiao Xu, please ask for a day off for me tomorrow."
"Okay." After responding, Li Xu got on his bike and left without saying a few words.
After he left, Liu Yunxiao took his wife and children to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some gifts. When he returned home, he took out two oil-paper packages from the gifts and put them in the basket of the bicycle, then rode his bicycle with Li Chen to the Xiaguan Brigade.
After arriving at the place, after some inquiries, the two found Hong Qi and Jiang Yan who were working in the fields.
Seeing how thin and exhausted they looked, Liu Yunxiao suddenly felt like giving up.
Li Chen didn't know what he was thinking, so he just shouted, "Hong Qi, Jiang Yan."
Hearing the shouts, Hong Qi and the other man were stunned at first. After seeing the two figures on the ridge of the field, they immediately showed surprise on their faces and ran towards them with hoes in their hands.
When he came in front of him, Hong Qi opened his mouth and was about to speak, but tears came out first.
The same goes for Jiang Yan.
Seeing this, Liu Yunxiao felt even more guilty. He patted Hong Qi on the shoulder and sighed, "I wish I had advised your parents more back then."
Hong Qi wiped away his tears and forced a smile. "Brother Liu, I was so excited to see you guys that I couldn't hold back my tears. Besides, you don't have to blame yourself. You're not to blame for us coming to Tang County. We've gotten through the hardest times, and life is much better now. We can handle it. Let's talk about you two. When did you and Brother Chen come back?"
