After the dog days of summer, it is time for the autumn harvest.
——
It rained heavily on the first day after all the wheat in the village was stored.
It rained all night long.
With so much rainfall, I guess there will be a lot of people catching cicada monkeys in the woods in front of the village early tomorrow morning.
When Li Mingqing went to work, there were many children standing in front of the village.
Zhou Jingli was actually there too.
Following his gaze, Li Mingqing saw Liu Zhenzhu leading Zheng Jiefang standing in front.
The drunkard's real intention is not to drink.
Liu Jiajia said sarcastically: "What evil things are you thinking? Be careful if you do something bad, the village will not tolerate you."
"Fuck you."
Zhou Jingli said impatiently.
Li Mingqing rode his bike past quickly.
Liu Xiang cursed: "What are you showing off? It's just a broken bicycle."
Old Lady Zheng said, "I'm just riding normally. There's no point in showing off as you say. Liu Xiang, you need to work on your temper."
"You old woman, how dare you teach me a lesson?"
Seeing her cursing like this, Old Lady Zheng stopped talking.
Since the other party didn't appreciate it, she didn't say anything more.
She looked at Zhou Jingli, then at her daughter-in-law, with a worried look on her face.
She hasn't figured out how to bring this up yet.
She did not approve of Liu Zhenzhu and Zhou Jingli's relationship.
Not only do I disapprove, I'm also strongly against it.
Li Mingqing came to the supply and marketing cooperative.
In less than ten minutes, Sun Xiuhong and Wei Xueyi came over.
The two of them came over and asked hesitantly, "Comrade Li, I have something to ask you. Is my mother-in-law okay?"
"What's the meaning?"
"It's Xiuhong's younger brother. Is he in good health?"
"What are you talking about? What do you mean by good health? Do you want your child to be unhealthy?"
"Of course not, I just care."
"If you really care, just go back to your parents' home."
Sun Xiuhong didn't dare go back.
Ever since the two sisters almost lost their child last time, they have been afraid to go.
Even though it had been so long since Zhao Guiying gave birth to the child, she had never visited him once.
A child born at such an old age will definitely be in poor health. What if something happens to him?
"Ming Qing, after all, we are from the same village. Tell me the truth, is my brother particularly weak?"
"It's fine, just like a normal child."
"That's impossible."
"Exactly. Didn't the child almost die? Isn't there any sequelae left?"
Li Mingqing knew that the two men had no good intentions.
"It's incredibly healthy."
Sun Xiuhong whispered to Wei Xueyi, "In that case, let's not go."
"I really can't go. It would be terrible if I went."
"Let's talk about it later."
The two of them left after talking without buying anything.
He thought that if Niuniu found him a son-in-law like this in the future, he would be so angry that he would die.
What the hell, hoping something bad will happen at home.
He directed all his evil intentions at his own family.
Who would have thought that Zhao Xingguo would come to the supply and marketing cooperative.
Zhao Xiaoling thought he was here to see her and asked, "Brother, why are you here?"
"On behalf of the county, I present a banner to Comrade Li, honoring you for your contribution to flood relief efforts. This banner was given to you by the villagers in the disaster-stricken area."
Li Mingqing didn't expect such a big scene.
It was Zhao Xingguo who came here in person.
"Ming Qing, good days are still ahead. If you want, you can go to the county town to work."
"I don't have such grand ambitions. I'm fine living in town."
"Isn't this a waste of talent?"
"Where are Doctor Zhou and Doctor Ren? Do they have any banners?"
It would be bad if he was the only one who told others about this, as he was not the only one who went to the disaster area.
"Everything. We'll go to the hospital later."
"Shouldn't the hospital be giving out the banner? Why are you here?"
"The mayor of the county next door sent it to the office hall."
Li Mingqing never expected such a big scene.
It's mainly because of those big bags of grain.
Zhao Xingguo chatted here for half an hour before returning to the county town.
That afternoon, Dr. Zhou and Dr. Ren rushed over.
"Doctor Li, thanks to you, we've become celebrities in the hospital. If it weren't for you, we probably wouldn't have received the banner."
They feel that their virtue does not match their position.
The banner should only be given to Li Mingqing.
"It's not like you didn't go. The three of us are exhausted, and it's not like I went alone."
"You can't say that. You saved most of the people with acupuncture. It was so fast that we were stunned."
"You two came here just to talk about this?"
"Yeah, this is no small matter."
The two of them came in a hurry, said a few words, and left in a hurry.
I have to say they came at just the right time.
If he had been two minutes later, he would have been off work.
He put the banner in the basket of his bicycle and rode home.
As soon as he arrived at the village entrance, he was stopped by Xiangnan.
"Uncle, I caught a lot of cicada monkeys. I'll give you a few later."
"Come and grab it after I put the bike down."
"Okay, okay. Please help me carry three bottles, one for each of us."
Li Hongbo came over and said embarrassedly: "Uncle, can you bring one for us?"
"Why don't you come to my house and get it? I can't carry so much."
Xiangnan and Hongbo trotted beside Li Mingqing's bicycle.
The Li family placed all the empty soda and wine bottles in a basket against the wall in the yard.
