"That's because my son is capable. Otherwise, if the two pigs died, do you think you would have any choice?"
"You, the Li family, rely on your numbers to bully others."
"Even if we bully you, it's still your fault even if the king of heaven comes. Choose quickly, we don't have time to argue with you."
She definitely didn't want to go to the commune because she couldn't stand the hardship.
"We're all from the same village, why make things so awkward? Daguo, go get two dollars for Old Li's family."
"Two dollars? Zhang Cuihua, you're really thoughtful. It should be at least ten dollars."
"Ten dollars, you're robbing me!"
"If you don't want to, go to the commune and talk about it."
Wang Daguo and Li Mingqing said, "Ten yuan is ten yuan. Don't mention this matter again."
"As long as your mother doesn't cause any trouble, our Li family will definitely not say anything."
When Li Goudan came back carrying firewood, he heard that ten yuan had been wasted at his home.
You can hear the sound of skipping stones on the water.
This is nothing, both the wife and the army were lost.
Wang Daguo pulled Zhang Cuihua into the house to get the money.
"You idiot, you idiot! Ten yuan! That's ten yuan! You have to work so many work points to earn it back. Your sister is so pregnant that she can't earn many work points. Are you going to starve this whole family?"
"Mom, do you want to go to the commune? If you want to go to the commune, I will definitely not stop you."
"Bullshit, how could a son send his own mother to jail?"
"Take out the money quickly."
Zhang Cuihua then knocked away the bricks on the kang and took out a small iron box.
The money in it was saved bit by bit.
If she hadn't been the one who caused this disaster today, she would never have taken out the money.
It's her fault that her old arms and legs are too weak.
She also wanted to give birth to a child for Wu Li to carry on the family line, so she definitely couldn't be detained in the commune.
Part of this money was given to her by Wu Li.
Ever since she found out that Wu Li hid the money in his underwear, she never asked for money openly or secretly.
Wu Li originally disagreed.
She tried every possible means to persuade him, even crying, making a fuss, and threatening to commit suicide, to get all the money out of his hands.
Wu Liqi threw the basket aside and stopped weaving it, as he had wasted his money.
Li Mingqing smiled when he saw him like this, thinking that a fight might start in the Wang family soon.
Zhang Cuihua took out the money with a vicious look.
Every time she confronted the Li family, she gained nothing and always looked for trouble with ill intentions.
Old Lady Li took the money, counted it, and left.
Li Goudan said dissatisfiedly: "A bunch of robbers."
"Ask your mother-in-law about the intricacies of right and wrong. If you don't know anything, just shut up."
I was thinking of saying something but seeing Li Mingqing's timid look, I said nothing.
Wang Daya stood there quietly with her belly bulging.
For a moment, no one in Old Wang's family spoke; they all stood there dejectedly.
Li Goudan said, "Mom, I told you a long time ago not to mess with the Li family. Look at how I got beaten last time. I had to stay in bed for half a month before I could barely get out of bed."
"How did I know I would be discovered?"
Wang Daguo said, "Stop talking now, stay home and live your life well. Don't have any bad thoughts. Mother, we've suffered so many losses at the Li family's hands, but there won't be a next time!"
"You two are really going against the grain. You're talking so disrespectfully here."
Zhang Cuihua spoke in the manner of an elder.
Although she knew it in her heart, she couldn't be embarrassed.
Wu Li said, "I'll take care of the family's money from now on."
As soon as these words came out, the other three said in unison: "No!"
On the surface, they are a family, but in reality, people's hearts are different. Wu Li had a bad reputation before he came to Lijia Village.
"Uncle Wu, you and I are both from outside, so let's just live an honest life."
"Shut up, who's like you?"
Li Goudan and Wu Li looked down on each other, mocked each other, and fought openly and secretly, not for money but for face.
The Wang family has no money and no power, so the two of them are really bored.
Old Mrs. Li went back and checked on the two piglets with a worried look on her face.
"Mom, she must be full of life."
"I have to see it with my own eyes to be assured. Zhang Cuihua really did kill me."
Li Mingqing and Sun Jiaxue returned to their new house.
Xiangdong and a few others were having a lot of fun throwing sandbags at the door. Several children of similar age from the village were also there.
"Big girl, how about you guys learning from some grandpas?"
"Uncle, the grandfathers are very kind and friendly. We have learned a lot. In just a few days, Xiangdong's handwriting has been praised by the teacher at school."
Li Mingqing was relieved. "From now on, you will go to the bullpen once a week, and I won't remind you every time."
"Thank you, little uncle, for worrying about us all day long."
Li Xiangdong ran over and said, "Uncle, grandpa praised me for my great progress."
“Keep up the good work.”
Don't waste this good opportunity. If these big guys don't come to the village, you may never have the chance to meet them in your life.
When Li Mingqing and Sun Jiaxue returned, they saw a pheasant with its neck bitten off in the yard.
"This must have been caught by Wangcai in the mountains."
"With Wangcai, our family will never lack meat."
"Wife, please sit down and rest for a while. I will remove the chicken feathers."
Sun Jiaxue smiled and said, "It just so happens that Mom wants to make a feather duster. I think pheasant feathers are pretty good and shiny."
She squatted down and plucked the feathers from the pheasant's back and wings.
"A feather duster requires a lot of chicken feathers. How many have you saved?"
"I don't know about that, but whatever I can get is good."
"If Mom knew, she would be so touched."
"Mom is good to me, so I should be good to her, otherwise I would be an ungrateful person."
Li Mingqing laughed and said, "There are no conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in our family."
"How could there be any conflicts when my mother is so good? Our Li family's daughter-in-law is envied by everyone. Li Xiaolan even told me that the girls in the village dream of living like this."
Seeing her beaming, Li Mingqing said, "Indeed, everyone in the village says our family is a blessed place. But wife, have you forgotten someone? Have I been bad to you?"
"Okay, great."
He leaned over and whispered in her ear: "Really? I thought you had forgotten me."
"You...you stay away from me."
Her ears felt numb and her whole body shuddered.
Seeing her like this, Li Mingqing smiled and said, "Wife, go get the thermos."
Half an hour later the pheasant was simmering on the stove.
The radio was on in the room, and two people were sitting in chairs drinking tea leisurely.
"Brother Mingqing, have you decided on a name for the child?"
"Not really. There are still several months to go. There's no rush."
"The Zhao family is racking their brains to come up with a name for their child, and they want your help in choosing a name that sounds culturally appropriate."
"That won't do. Our own baby hasn't been named yet, and I'm really not good at naming things."
A name follows a person throughout his life.
It's fine if it's done well, but if it's not done well, it will ruin the child's life.
