The next morning.
Li Mingqing stretched his arms to the side out of habit but missed.
He was the only one in bed, and judging by the remaining warmth on the sheets, Sun Jiaxue must have gotten up not long ago.
"Brother Mingqing, how are you? Are you still feeling uncomfortable?"
"Nothing's wrong," he said, taking the egg noodles from her hand. "They smell so good. My wife's cooking is really good. My third brother's cooking is far inferior to yours."
Sun Jiaxue was completely accustomed to his praise anytime and anywhere.
Li Mingqing was even happier when he saw that there was also a fried egg in her bowl. His daughter-in-law finally understood.
"Wife, this is brown sugar. Drink more when you have nothing to do. It's good for your health."
She looked at the brown sugar on the table and then at the cabinet next to it. He really took care of her like a child.
There were all kinds of precious food in the cabinet, all left for her by Li Mingqing.
The two of them were halfway through their meal when they saw Li Dahua rush into the house.
"Aunt, what's the matter that brings you here so early in the morning?"
"Mingqing, I came here to tell you something. Don't blame me for being nosy."
Li Mingqing knew without hesitation that they came for the study conference in town tonight.
He ate his noodles leisurely and didn't answer until he finished them.
Li Dahua felt sad when looking at the fine white noodles and fried eggs. She couldn't believe that the breakfast tasted so good. She thought of the sweet potato porridge she had in the morning and swallowed her saliva.
Comparing yourself to others will make you feel nauseous.
"Aunt, do you know that you're here to see my captain and Xiang Jun? I know what you want to say, but this matter is not something I can decide on my own. If there are any changes, it must be the captain who makes the decision."
Li Dahua was rejected before she even opened her mouth.
"You are such a rude kid! I never thought you, despite looking so indifferent to fame and fortune, are actually more snobbish than anyone else."
"Yes, I am a snob, and your simplicity has come to me."
After Li Mingqing finished speaking, he pushed his bicycle towards the door. Li Dahua pressed him and insisted on getting an explanation.
He had a bad habit of getting into the car and leaving her several meters behind.
Li Dahua was so angry that she stomped her feet.
On the way, Li Mingqing met Li Xiangjun who was coming in a hurry.
"Oh my God, did my mother go to your house to look for you?"
"That's not the case, but I was in a hurry to get to work so I didn't say much."
"Don't take my mother's words to heart. They are her own thoughts. My father and I definitely didn't mean that."
Li Mingqing looked at him anxiously explaining and said, "Brother, your mother actually has a point. Why don't you give it a try? Just in case it works."
"Absolutely not. I tremble when there are too many people around. If I go, it will definitely bring shame to the village. You should go to work quickly, and everything else can be done as usual. But you must go tonight."
Li Xiangjun is very self-aware.
After he said that, he walked forward to find Li Dahua.
A family of five was working in the fields. While they were working, Li Dahua disappeared, and Li Xiangjun trotted over to look for her.
"Mom, please don't worry about this. Don't you know what kind of person I am, your son, dear mother?"
"Son, you can't say that. You are truly exceptional."
"Thank you so much, it's not like you haven't heard me speak before. You're just mute when you're on the stage. Please stop meddling in my business and work hard to earn work points so I can marry you off."
When Li Dahua heard this, her attention was instantly diverted.
She thought about finding a fair and pretty city wife for her child, as no one from the village was worthy of her son.
Sun Jiaxue tidied the house before going out.
Li Mingqing hummed a little tune and rode his bicycle happily towards the town.
He was wondering when he could get the glass, and he had to hire a car to transport the furniture from Yangjia Village to Lijia Village. It would be very difficult to push it on a wooden cart.
Looking at the time, I went to Zhou Jiangang's house early.
"Brother, I wanted to come over and try my luck, but I didn't expect you to be at home."
"Of course I'm not at home, where else can I go? What good can you do with me?"
"When did the last glass arrive?"
"When it comes to the matter of the next two days, Brother Zheng will definitely drive you there."
After hearing this, he felt relieved.
"Come on, I'll treat you to a good meal at the restaurant. You've been busying me all day long," said Li Mingqing.
"It's just a message, but I still want to share your meal. I haven't had breakfast yet."
The two of them went to a state-owned restaurant, and he only ordered two meat buns. It was only when Li Mingqing paid the bill that he realized that he had already paid.
"I'm leaving now. We'll talk another day."
After Zhou Jiangang finished speaking, he disappeared in a flash, running faster than a rabbit.
Su Yuhong saw Li Mingqing sitting there and said, "How could you bear to eat in a restaurant?"
"What's there to be reluctant about for a meal?"
When he stood up and pushed the door open to go out, he heard her say, "Where's Jiaxue? Why haven't I seen her come over these two days?"
"At home, don't lead my wife astray."
"Oh, if you haven't led her astray, how could I possibly lead her astray? You don't know how lucky you are to marry her."
"What's the matter? Are you a tortoise that has lived for ten thousand years? Did you know my wife before?"
He was not polite at all.
"I don't know him, but he and your wife just get along well."
"Why do I feel that you have ulterior motives and bad intentions?"
Su Yuhong rolled her eyes at him and went to clear the table. She didn't know why she fell in love with him in the first place. He didn't seem to be very rich, and Jiaxue suffered because of him.
Li Mingqing thought about it over and over again but still couldn't figure out why Su Yuhong liked Sun Jiaxue so much.
Could it be that they are sisters who have been separated for many years?
Or simply a matter of chemistry.
I couldn't figure out what was going on the whole afternoon. It made no sense at all. Women's hearts are like the sea.
The team leader and the village chief came over before he got off work.
"Your job is really leisurely and comfortable," said the village chief with envy.
"Uncle, you haven't seen me when I'm busy. I don't even have time to stand."
Li Mingqing said seriously, but he was really busy every Monday morning, but he was quite free at other times.
"It's much better than digging in the dirt with your back to the sky, and it's sheltered from the wind and rain."
"That's pretty good, if you put it that way."
The captain talked about what happened in the morning again, "Mingqing, don't take it to heart."
"It's okay, Auntie is thinking about Xiangjun, I understand."
The village chief smiled and said, "Back then, neither your Xiangjun nor my Mingfu was reliable. I'm afraid people would laugh at me if I told them that."
"The two brothers are equally matched. I don't know what the two kids have to be so nervous about."
"I just don't have the guts, I'm not cut out for this."
Li Mingqing listened to what the two said and said, "Each of them has his own strengths. I can't plant seedlings as well as they do in the fields."
The two of them smiled but didn't say anything. There was no comparison at all. They were just content with what they had.
