The next day was Little New Year.
The system not only gave Li Xu a New Year gift package, but also gave him an extra gift.
This great gift was what he had longed for and dreamed of, an expansion of space.
Just over half of this year has passed, and Li Xu's space is already filled with signed items.
However, there were too many people around him, so he had no chance to take out the things in the space and use them. He had no choice but to find an opportunity to quietly throw the food into the sea.
No one knew how heartbroken he was when he threw away the food. At that time, he was thinking all day long that the system would quickly expand the space.
After thinking about it for half a year, it finally came true today.
Now that the space has been expanded tenfold, he no longer has to worry about not having enough space.
Li Xu was so excited that he didn't even care about the cold. He jumped up from the bed.
In fact, Li Xu no longer had much hope for what the system would give him.
Because he felt that the system could not give him anything good, and what it could give him could be easily obtained with his current financial resources.
The year before last, the system gave me a set of manufacturing drawings for a fan. But last year, it was like it was dead. Apart from the normal sign-in stuff, it didn’t give me anything.
So for Li Xu, even if the system stops the sign-in function, he doesn't care.
Some people may ask, if this doesn’t matter, why are we so excited about space expansion?
It's simple, he doesn't want to waste food.
If the system really stops the sign-in function, Li Xu won't even smile even if it expands the space a hundred times.
Li Xu put on his clothes with great effort and walked out the door. Du Hong, who was washing in the yard, saw him holding his waist with both hands and a painful expression. She was stunned for a moment and wondered if he had worked too hard last night?
Thinking of this, Du Hong couldn't help but hesitate, "Xiao Xu, what are you doing?"
"Don't mention it. I was trying to do a somersault just now, but I couldn't get it up and I sprained my back."
Du Hong: ...
After a moment of silence, she said unhappily, "How old are you? You're still doing somersaults. Why don't you do somersaults like a swallow?"
"What do you mean by 'how old am I?'" Li Xu was immediately displeased. "I'm only in my thirties, in the prime of my life. Is there anything wrong with me doing a somersault? As for that swallow flip you mentioned, I'll show you after my waist is healed. I'll definitely open your eyes."
Du Hong knew his temper. The more you said no, the more he would do it. As long as you ignored him, he would not mention it himself, so she stopped talking, rolled her eyes at him, and continued to wash up.
Seeing her like this, Li Xu walked behind her and asked, "Have those two little bastards woken up yet?"
"They both got up early and are probably having dinner at the old house now."
"Then I feel relieved." Li Xu smiled, slapped Du Hong on the buttocks, and then walked quickly towards the kitchen.
Du Hong's body stiffened, but she didn't say anything. She just thought to herself, I'll show you what I can do tonight.
After washing up, Li Xu and his wife walked towards the old house.
Unexpectedly, halfway through the journey, snowflakes started falling from the sky.
The snow fell heavier and heavier, and by the time they arrived, the snowflakes were as big as goose feathers.
Seeing Li Xu covering his waist, Li Jiakang and others looked at him with strange eyes.
Li Xu knew that they were misleading, and he also knew that the more he explained, the more suspicious things would become, so he simply didn't explain and let them guess.
After breakfast, we lit the brazier and played cards with nothing to do.
This game lasted the whole day.
The next day, some of the Li family members went to see friends, some went to see their card-playing partners, and those who really didn't want to go out stayed at home.
In the evening, the Li brothers came to their father-in-law's house with their wives, New Year gifts, and money to honor the elderly, just like last year.
What’s interesting is that Li Xu and Li Ping received more money than last year, but Li Chen received less money, and it was much less, only fifty yuan.
You should know that Li Chen gave 600 yuan to his father-in-law and mother-in-law last year.
In fact, he didn't want to do this, but there was no way. Zhou Miao's brothers, sisters-in-law, and brothers-in-law were really disgusting. After giving money last year, he and Zhou Miao decided not to give so much money to the elderly in the future, so as not to let those disgusting guys get it.
Of course, this idea of the couple was destined to fail.
Because within two years at most, the Li family's situation will be exposed, and it will not be appropriate to give such a small amount then.
Li Chen and his wife naturally understood this, so they decided to give it as planned before it was exposed.
They just wanted to see what kind of faces those disgusting guys would show.
It is said that when Li Xu and his wife came to the Du family, they handed over the prepared New Year gifts and started chatting with the Du family about family matters.
Li Xu asked cheerfully, "Dad, you're going to retire after the New Year, right?"
Du Ming nodded. "Yes, I'll retire on the 25th day of the first lunar month, which is March 1st in the Gregorian calendar."
"What do you plan to do after you retire?"
You know what, these words really stumped Du Ming for a moment.
As for taking care of children, after the Chinese New Year, the youngest of the three generations of the Du family will be eleven years old, and at this age he does not need to be taken care of by adults at all.
Besides, even if he wanted to take the child with him, he couldn't because the child had to go to school during the day.
But if he had to do something else, he really didn't know what to do.
Seeing his brows furrowed slightly, as if in deep thought, Yang Li said with a smile, "This can also stump you. If it really doesn't work, just learn from me and do housework in the morning and play mahjong with the neighbors in the afternoon."
When Yang Li just retired, she didn't play cards and only wanted to take care of her children.
