Zhou Jingli started to run.
But there were people everywhere and I couldn't run away for a while.
Li Mingqing asked, "You don't say anything when I ask you, but you keep chattering when I don't ask you. I saw you were talking quite happily just now, have you suddenly become silent?"
"I was just chatting for a while."
Liu Jiajia came over like timely rain and said, "That's exactly what he said. I can testify to that."
"Liu Jiajia! Shut up!"
"I'm telling the truth, why are you shutting up? You're the one who's been throwing dirty water on him, and everyone's heard it."
Zhou Jingli walked out and said, "I won't argue with you."
After finally moving out, he ran away immediately.
Yu Huaizhi and Wang Mudan did not leave. They were stacking bricks.
Wu Shengli and Zhao Youcai did not leave but stayed to help.
When the Wei Yong brothers came the next day, Li Mingqing had not returned from the town yet.
Sun Jiaxue took out three and a half bags of beans and eggplants that he had prepared in advance and gave them to them.
"Sister-in-law, why are there so many?"
"Not much, you and Brother Zheng can each take half a bag, which is just right for the three of us."
"We brothers only need half a bag."
"Hurry up and take it. There's still a lot left at home. You can eat it in no time. You don't grow vegetables in the county, right? You have to buy everything you eat."
Wei Yun said embarrassedly: "Every time I eat and take, I feel embarrassed."
"It's okay, it's not worth much."
——
The next day.
Basically everyone in the village went to Yu Huaizhi to help.
Old Mrs. Li went over to help with cooking.
When the old couple from the Yu family and the old couple from the Wang family came to the village, they specially visited the Li family. They still had to repay the favor.
Before going to work, Li Mingqing gave him ten pounds of pork and a bucket of mung beans.
"No, I'll just go to town and buy it later."
"I brought them all here. They'd go bad quickly if I took them back in the heat. I'll cook lunch for us, and I'll make some mung bean soup for everyone to cool down."
After he said that, he rode away on his bicycle.
Zhang Cuihua said, "You're really generous."
Wu Li cleared his throat and said, "He's not generous to everyone, but he's more stingy with us than anyone else. Look, even Old Lady Li is here to help."
Wang Mazi stopped what he was doing and said, "When the Yu and Wang families came over, they gave Ming Qing a lot of gifts. Giving him a few pounds of meat is only natural. It's just a matter of return."
"You are the only one who understands. Don't we know that?"
Wu Li glanced at him with disdain.
Wang Daguo was afraid that a quarrel would break out, so he was anxious to smooth things over.
"Mom, go and help too."
"My arms and back hurt. It's hard for me to do my own housework, let alone other people's. I still need to stay alive to have grandchildren. You better hurry up. You're the only young man in the village who hasn't got married yet."
Wang Daya held Wang Xiaobao's hand and whispered, "Mom, don't be too picky."
"You silly girl, what do you mean by 'don't be too picky'? I have to keep a close eye on you. You didn't keep an eye on Li Goudan and found him. He's such a jerk! I'm so worried about you. How are you going to live the rest of your life?"
"As long as I have Xiaobao, I haven't thought about getting married again."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Cuihua slapped her hard.
"What kind of dirty talk are you talking about? How can a healthy young lady stay at home forever?"
Dazhu's mother said, "Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. If I had known earlier, I would have let your Daya and my Dazhu get married."
"Bullshit, who wants to be your relative?"
Sun Jiaxue came over with Niu Niu and Yang Daya, and Zhang Cuihua's expression changed immediately.
He pulled Wang Xiaobao to his side and said, "Xiaobao, come and say hello to sister Niuniu."
Old Lady Xu stood directly in front of her.
"Yaozu, say hello to Niuniu."
"Old lady Xu, are you blind? Can't you see me standing here? You squeezed in front of me. It's really embarrassing."
"You old fool, how could I not know what you are thinking?"
Seeing that a quarrel was about to break out, Yang Daya pulled Sun Jiaxue away.
The two people, who were originally full of anger, glared at each other and walked away when they saw Sun Jiaxue leaving.
Zhang Tiezhu, who was laying the foundation there, said with a smile, "Uncle, your daughter is really popular. When she grows up, the matchmaker will probably have to run around for a while."
Old man Li said, "It's still too early to tell whether I'm going to break my legs or not."
The village chief smiled and said, "You're right. Back then, Mingqing and my Minglan were so young. Now, in the blink of an eye, Mingqing's daughter is already one year old, and you have grandchildren, both boys and girls."
"Generation after generation, we are all getting old."
Wang Mudan and Yu Huaizhi asked Li Laoguang for help yesterday to build a simple cooking place under the tree next to the house they were building.
It is a stove made of pushed stones.
Hong Bin's mother said, "That's great! Cooking under the shade of the tree is cool and convenient for eating."
Qin Chenglan also came to help.
After all, they are villagers in the future and can come to help when they have time.
Besides, I can have a free meal later, which is quite a good deal.
Of course, some people came just to watch the fun. Zhao Guiying, Old Lady Xu and Dazhu Niang stood there with their hands behind their backs, and it was obvious that they had no intention of helping.
Sun Jiaxue looked at the watch on her wrist.
It’s almost noon, I have to go home and cook.
"Mom, Brother Mingqing will be back from get off work soon. I'll go back first."
Wang Mudan quickly said, "Jiaxue, let Mingqing come here for dinner."
"No, it's too busy here, just go home and eat."
Zhou Xiaoshuang's sharp eyes noticed the exquisite watch on her hand.
He came over very familiarly and shouted in surprise: "Jiaxue, that's a watch on your wrist!"
