Chapter 297 Beggar



"Lili, come in and sit down."

"I came to borrow a shoe pattern from you. I don't know where I put the shoe pattern at home. Winter is coming soon, and I have to start making cotton shoes."

Sun Jiaxue handed her the shoe pattern and said, "This is Mingqing's size, and this is mine."

"That's perfect, about the same size."

"I'll get some paper and cut you a copy so you don't have to go back and forth."

Wu Lili looked at her as she took out the brand new, snow-white paper and pencil and exclaimed, "Oh my god, you really don't lack anything at home."

"Brother Mingqing was afraid that I would be bored at home, so he bought it specifically for me to write on."

"Then the baby in your belly must be extremely smart and will become a top scholar in the future. Incredible, incredible."

Sun Jiaxue smiled and said, "It hasn't been born yet."

"It's not much different. The child's father is taking care of him."

Wu Lili took the shoe sample and left.

Sun Jiaxue saw Old Lady Li coming out of the house with a sickle.

"Mom, where are you going?"

"I'm going to my private plot to harvest the soybeans. I'm also harvesting the ones you planted and will bring them to you later."

"I'll go too."

After she finished speaking, she took out the lock from behind the door and locked it.

"I can do it alone. You don't need to go. It's not much."

"I can go chat with you, Mom. It's a good opportunity to take a stroll. Brother Mingqing also said that we should exercise regularly."

"Okay, then you come with me."

When Li Mingqing was halfway there, he saw the village chief, the team leader and several young men from the village.

"Uncle, are you going to pay the grain?"

"Yes, it saves you from unnecessary troubles. The sooner you make the deal, the more peace of mind you'll have."

"Why didn't you borrow a donkey cart?"

"It's quite convenient for a few of us to use this wooden cart. The amount of food loaded on each cart isn't too heavy, and it's not far from the village to the town."

This wooden cart is really convenient, it is small and can carry heavy objects.

Almost every family in the village has a wooden cart.

"Uncle, I'll be leaving first."

"Let's go, we're not in a hurry, but you're on time for work."

Zhang Tiezhu said, "It seems we are still quite comfortable, no matter when."

Zhang Chengming said: "People eat commercial grain. If I am willing to work from 8 am to 5 pm."

Li Mingqing smiled and was about to leave when he saw an old man holding a broken bowl and leaning on a wooden stick coming over.

He thought, no way, could he be here to scam me?

The old man came over tremblingly and said, "My dear brothers, please have pity on me and give me some food."

"He can walk and talk, so what's pitiful about him?"

"My leg is injured, and it hurts every time I take a step."

"It doesn't look like he's been injured."

He is a doctor, and a very skilled one at that, so how could he not see that he was pretending?

She dressed like she was ten years older, but in reality she was only in her fifties.

Although not as strong as a young man, he is still in good health.

"You really have no sympathy, young man. You are not a doctor, what nonsense are you talking about?"

"Haha, I really am a doctor."

The village chief said impatiently, "Why are you here again? In previous years, you just stood here and begged for food. You never change despite repeated warnings. Everyone in the surrounding villages knows you."

"You've got the wrong person. I came here to escape famine."

"Then keep running."

After the village chief finished speaking, he signaled Zhang Tiezhu and the others to push the cart forward.

"Please have some mercy on me, and consider it a good deed."

What he said was so sincere and he is really good at acting.

"Stop howling! Everyone who walks this road knows you. Why do you have to act like a beggar? You're not an old man who can't walk, so why are you so shameless?"

The village chief said with gritted teeth.

Two years ago, the village chief and the team leader met him when they went to the town to pay grain.

The two men felt sorry for him and gave him some food.

Who would have thought he was pretending?

After the two men paid the grain and headed back, he was happily sitting in a state-owned restaurant eating, without even having time to change out of his previous clothes.

Not only were they deceived, but he would appear on the road every late autumn.

If you can cheat someone, you’ll cheat them.

The man pretending to be an old man did not chase after the village chief and his companions when he saw them leaving. Instead, he looked at Li Mingqing.

"Young man, you look either rich or noble. Please have pity on me. I have elderly parents and young children to support. My whole family depends on me for support."

"Why don't you just kowtow to the sky a few times? God might take pity on you and give you a gift."

After saying this, Li Mingqing rode away without paying any attention to his surprised expression.

I never thought that such a thing would happen in this day and age.

This was the first time he encountered this.

The village chief and the team leader walking in front said, "We don't know which village that person is from."

"I guess he's not from our town, but from another town. It would be so embarrassing if someone recognized him."

"How shameless! He can still pretend even after being exposed."

"A shameless person is invincible."

When Li Mingqing arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative, he saw a woman with disheveled hair talking to Zhao Xiaoling.

He went in and saw, wow, isn't this an old acquaintance?

I haven't seen such a miserable life in a few days.

This is the first time I have seen Zhou Yingzi since she got married.

I have to say that I look more than ten years older. It's all my own fault. I can't blame anyone else.

The Yuan family was so good in the past, but now they have to do such chaos.

Now that’s good, I’ve found a family that’s equally matched with me, and the “good days” are still ahead.

When Zhou Yingzi saw Li Mingqing coming, he rushed over immediately.
