As soon as Sun Jiaxue arrived, Zhou Yingzi immediately dragged her to the counter.
Sun Jiaxue, who was being pulled, looked at her in confusion. She had never seen her so enthusiastic when she came here before.
"Let me introduce you to someone new."
Hearing this, Sun Jiaxue thought she was hallucinating, "What did you say?"
"I said I wanted to introduce you to a partner, a rich man. A fair-skinned girl like you deserves to be spoiled. Comrade Li has such a bad temper that he would definitely beat or scold you."
Zhou Yingzi lied with her eyes open and her voice was quite loud, without any hesitation from Li Mingqing.
Li Mingqing looked at Sun Jiaxue with a smile, as if he didn't hear anything.
Sun Jiaxue immediately clarified: "Yingzi, you misunderstood. Brother Mingqing is very good to me. I am already married, so I can't say such things."
"You are so gullible. He has a vicious heart. Don't be fooled by him."
"No, Brother Mingqing wouldn't lie to me."
She stared at Zhou Yingzi with her bright eyes, unable to utter a word.
Li Mingqing walked over and pulled Sun Jiaxue to his side.
"Wife, she's jealous because I treat you so well. Don't listen to her nonsense."
"Yes, Yingzi is doing this for my own good."
Zhao Xiaoling almost laughed out loud after hearing this. It really is a little white rabbit.
No wonder Li Mingqing dotes on her so much, fearing that she would suffer any loss.
Zhou Yingzi was speechless. Why didn't he believe what she said? She was telling the truth.
Li Mingqing and Sun Jiaxue did not go home but went to Yangjia Village together to see whether the furniture that Old Man Yang had made for him was ready.
"Uncle Yang, how many pieces of furniture have you ordered?"
"I've only finished half of it. It will be fully completed in two weeks at most. I'll send you a letter once it's all done."
Old Man Yang took the two of them to see the finished furniture.
Yang Dafei and Yang Daming are diligently cutting wood to make a dressing table. The shape has been determined, but the details will take another day or two to finalize.
"Wife, I ordered a dressing table for you. Do you think it's the right size?"
Sun Jiaxue was flattered. She didn't expect that someone would build a dressing table for her.
"Brother Mingqing, I can't read it, just watch it for yourself."
Yang Dafei, who was standing by, said, "Everyone in the city has a dressing table like this. This size is perfect for the bedside."
Li Mingqing really doesn't understand this, so he should listen to professionals on professional matters.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Brother Yang."
Old man Yang asked, "Is this your wife? She looks about the same age as my son and has already married."
"Master, my wife Jiaxue, I got married early."
"It's better to get married early so that I can have grandchildren sooner. I have to urge my two brothers to do it. I really want to have grandchildren."
Yang Dafei and Yang Daming said in unison: "Dad, don't worry about it. It will be next year at the latest."
When the two were going back, they met Li Mingyuan who had returned from the county town.
Li Mingqing stopped the car and walked with him and asked, "Second brother, how is it?"
"It's good. Today is my first day at work."
Li Mingyuan's face was full of smiles and he couldn't control himself even if he wanted to hide it.
Knowing that he had successfully entered the machinery factory, Li Mingqing felt relieved and rode his bike to take Sun Jiaxue back first.
"Brother Mingqing, I don't have to go to work tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. When will you take a day off?"
"I'm on duty this week without any rest. For the first two weeks, it was Sister Zhao and Zhou Yingzi who were on duty."
"Then I will make you some delicious food in the next two days to replenish your nutrition."
"Thank you, daughter-in-law."
Sun Jiaxue didn't feel tired at all, and her daily life was very relaxing. In the past, she would get up earlier than the chickens and go to bed later than the dogs.
When Li Mingyuan came back, Mrs. Li immediately surrounded him.
"Second son, how are you?"
"Everything is done. You can go to work as usual from now on."
"This is really great, but you have to do it well, it's not easy," Mrs. Li reminded.
Li Lizhu was so happy that she almost cried and was absent-minded while working.
Li Mingli and Li Mingfang became much happier.
Tomorrow Li Danniu will take a few children to pick up dung balls, at least they can be counted as work points.
At this time, the fields lacked organic fertilizers and could only rely on human and animal fertilizers.
This job is basically done by children and the elderly.
When I got off work today, the village chief had just finished assigning the work. After the next rain in a few days, it will be time to plant sweet potatoes, so I took advantage of these two days to apply some fertilizer to the fields.
The sweet potato seedlings have all grown up. Every noon someone has to open the film on top to ventilate and dissipate heat, otherwise they will be burned by the sun.
This job fell on Yang Daya, who was paid one work point per day.
If I hadn't been pregnant, there would have been no such good thing. This job could have been done in two minutes.
Sun Jiaxue originally wanted to go to the fields with Old Lady Li, but Xiangnan and the other kids insisted on dragging her along to pick up manure.
She had no choice but to follow the other children and became the leader of the children.
Li Xiangxia and Li Xianghong were working in the fields with Li Dahua. They were in a very bad mood when they saw Sun Jiaxue on the other side of the road.
"Mom, my sister and I want to go home."
"Why go home? I'm still working diligently. You can't go anywhere. You can't go home unless each of you earns five work points."
Li Xianghong felt that her mother had changed and actually wanted to do five work points.
"Mom, my sister is getting married soon, how can we make her so tired?"
"Come on, don't you think I know your sister's character? If I don't change her character now, she will suffer a great loss when she gets to her husband's family."
Li Dahua was extremely worried. If she had known this earlier, she would not have spoiled him like this.
It was the captain who reminded me of this last night, otherwise I wouldn't have realized it.
Li Xianghong curled her lips, feeling extremely aggrieved.
Li Xiangxia couldn't understand why her mother had become such a different person. No wonder they say a daughter who is married off is like spilled water.
The wedding date has just been set and she hasn't even gotten married yet, but he treats her like this. I'm afraid he won't even let her into the house in the future.
Li Dahua didn't know what she was thinking and scolded her, "What are you doing? Hurry up and get to work."
Zhang Chunya felt something was wrong when he saw Li Lizhu working alone.
"My dear, where is Mingyuan? Why are you alone here?"
After hearing this, she realized that she had not yet told her mother about the happy event.
"Mingyuan works in the machinery factory in the county town."
"Really? This is not a joke," Zhang Chunya said in a low voice.
"It was my fourth brother who showed us the way. Otherwise, how could we have gotten it if we were toiling away all day at home?"
"That's great! Things will definitely get better and better in the future. You little idiot! You didn't even come home to tell me about such a big thing."
Li Lizhu took her arm and said, "I just found out last night. I didn't tell you before we decided on it."
Zhang Chunya glanced at Old Lady Li, who was working with her head down, and inwardly criticized her for hiding something. If her son, Li Shuiniu, went to work in the county town, the whole village would know about it.
Li Mingqing is truly a benefactor to everyone in the Li family, and his ancestors' graves are absolutely filled with joy.
