"Your handwriting is well done, you deserve it."
"Uncle Captain, don't be too confident. Some people might not appreciate my handwriting."
"During the joyous Spring Festival, every family would want to buy some beautiful Spring Festival couplets and celebrate the New Year with great fortune. Besides, our village believes that you and your mother are blessed, so you must share in the good fortune."
Hearing this, Li Mingqing didn't know what to feel for a moment.
I actually believed such groundless rumors.
The key is that it is spread so mysteriously.
Old man Li said cheerfully, "Old man, please sit down. I forgot to get you a stool after being here for so long."
"Don't bother. I'll leave the red paper behind and leave first."
"Anyway, I have nothing to do, so why rush back? Let me chat for a few more minutes."
The captain waved his hand and said, "My chimney is hard to light. The room is full of smoke when I light it. I have to go back and fix it. The room is not bright to begin with, and if it is covered with ashes, it will be even darker."
"Maybe the wind is blowing in the wrong direction. It has nothing to do with the chimney."
"But we can't have smoke coming out of the house at all times. Every time I cook, it feels like there's a fire and it's choking."
Li Mingqing thought of the chimney and stove in his home.
It lights up easily without any smoke.
No matter what kind of wind blows, it has no effect.
He said, "I don't know who made the chimney when the house was first built, but it's so easy to burn."
Old man Li clapped his hands and said, "I did it."
"Dad, you have this skill, it's really good."
The captain clapped his hands suddenly and said, "Yes, you are an expert at repairing stoves. I will help you dig the vegetable cellar. Come to my house later and show it to me."
"The vegetable cellar is not a big deal. I'll go to your house first."
"No, we can dig it in less than an hour in three months."
Li Mingqing felt that there was no point in standing here, so he took the red Spring Festival couplets paper and went home.
"Jiaxue, mother, let's wait until there's a big market to buy some red paper and write couplets."
"There's a big market tomorrow, I can go."
Old Lady Li said.
"Mom, I'll go with you. I have nothing to do at home. My aunt is in good health."
"Okay, I'll come and call you tomorrow morning, and I'll also call your sister-in-law."
The place where the big market is held is not far away and can be reached in about half an hour.
"Where did you get this?"
"He's from the captain's family, helping with the housework."
"I haven't thought about this yet. It's time to get ready. I also need to buy New Year pictures and the Kitchen God."
There must have been a lot of people attending the fair over the past half month.
It really feels more and more like the New Year.
When Mrs. Li returned home, the vegetable cellar had already been dug. It was not big, about one meter wide, enough to store the vegetables.
"Where's your father?"
"I went to fix the chimney at the captain's uncle's house. The bottom of the pot was hard to light."
Yu Huaizhi came over with a briefcase. It seemed that he had returned from the county town to get money.
Li Mingqing took the money and handed the ginseng to him.
"I really don't know how to thank you. If you need anything in the future, just ask me. I will definitely help you if I can."
"Okay, I need to talk to you."
He replied without any politeness.
Yu Huaizhi nodded in satisfaction when he heard this. This was a good idea. He had gotten a great deal.
Liu Jiajia stood at the gate of Li's house and looked inside.
What are you doing? It's so mysterious.
"Hey, isn't this Dazhu's wife? What are you doing sneaking around someone else's door? Are you planning to steal money?"
When she turned around, she saw Zhou Jingli standing there with a sarcastic look on his face.
"I think there's something wrong with you. This is my business, not yours."
"You turned your back on me after you got married. Be careful or I'll expose all the bad things you did. Then Wang Dazhu's family will probably kick you out."
"No one believes what you say, and you are involved in everything."
"How do you know there's no belief? Even if it's just a rumor, there are people in the village who believe it, not to mention it's true."
Liu Jiajia was not afraid and said, "Just tell me. The whole village knows we're dating, so there's nothing to say. If you tell it now, people will just think you regret not marrying me and are jealous of Wang Dazhu."
"Bah, you're so shameless."
"It's the same with you. Don't mess with each other."
As soon as Yu Huaizhi and Li Mingqing went out, they saw two people in a tense situation.
Why did they come to his doorstep?
After seeing Yu Huaizhi, Zhou Jingli understood that Liu Jiajia came to the Li family with him.
Yu Huaizhi and Lin Qianxia ignored them and one left while the other went into the yard and closed the door.
"Tsk, see? No one is paying attention to you."
“It has nothing to do with you!”
The two parted on bad terms.
Li Xiangxia and Zhu Huamao came to the village when the sun was about to set.
When they arrived at the Li family's door, Li Xiangxia asked them to stop the car. She had to go find Sun Jiaxue to show off.
"Wife, are you getting off the car?"
"Yes, isn't this Li Mingqing's house? Let's go in and take a look."
"Why don't you go home first?"
"What are you talking about? Go in and take a look."
Before the two of them even got close to the door, they were scared back by Wangcai.
When Li Mingqing heard the call, he came out and saw Li Xiangxia standing at the gate.
If he had known it was her, he would definitely not have come out.
"Mingqing, where's your wife? I'm pregnant too and came to talk to her about something. I want to ask her if I don't understand something."
"Just ask your mother. She gave birth to you three siblings and has experience."
"What? Are you afraid that I will eat your wife?"
