Report

A Genius in a Second Remember to Go? To provide you with exciting novels to read.

It had only been less than a year since this incident happened. Later on, Li Zhaokun probably knew that he was in the wrong and ran away in the blink of an eye. No one knew where he went.

Li He rubbed Four in pain. "It's okay. Even if she's gone, she'll still be a pretty girl."

Actually, Li He paid the least attention to Four. It was probably because she was too sensible. She did things steadily all her life and didn't need him to worry about her, so he paid less attention to her.

Li He glanced at Five at the side. This child was the most noisy and also the one who worried him the most.

In the kitchen, Wang Yulan seemed to have heard something. She picked up the spoon that had fallen and threw it down heavily, making a loud noise.

Li He didn't ask what was wrong. No matter what happened in his two lifetimes, it was still fate.

At noon, Old Master Li and Old Mistress Li Fucheng also came over, and the table was also filled with dishes.

Li He gave the old man a big black felt hat and the old mistress a red cotton round hat.

The old mistress said, "Why would I need to spend money? I'm old enough to be your husband's wife. This color is too bright. Don't tell me you're getting old? "

Li He said, "I don't have much money. The red picture is auspicious. Everyone in the city wears it. Try it. "

The old mistress tried it on, then looked at the table full of people with an uncertain gaze.

When everyone said that it looked good, she was finally relieved. "Even if you say it's ugly, I'll still wear it. It's warmer than my headscarf. I can't bear to take it off when it's cold."

The old mistress was afraid of the cold. In winter, she liked to wrap her entire head and face with a tattered black coarse cloth, revealing only her eyes. It kept her warm and protected her from the wind. She also wore the flowery cotton-padded jacket that she had left behind when she was a girl. She couldn't bear to wear it all her life, but in the end, she put it on in her old age.

Li He had thought of adding a few more rooms at the back of the house and letting the old couple move there. In the end, Li Fucheng retorted, "Out of sight, out of mind."

Li He could only give up.

After dinner, Li He asked Li Long, "Where is Da Zhuang's house?"

"He's not far from me. I called him over, and he's been talking about you for a long time. If I don't call him, he'll probably come over by himself."

If it was in the past, Li He would have directly scolded him. However, he was a man with a wife and a child. Which man would be willing to be scolded in front of his wife and lose face? Even if it was his own brother, he wouldn't do it.

That was why Li He had repeatedly lamented that growing up wasn't fun anymore.

Therefore, Li He still cared about his pride and said with a smile, "I wasn't at home when he got married, and I wasn't at home when he gave birth to the baby either. I'll have to be present for this gift. Hurry up and leave."

Da Zhuang's wife was still his original wife. It was a little awkward to put it this way. She was still the Da Zhuang's wife that Li He had known in his previous life. This one hadn't changed. She was average in height, but she had a good look.

Da Zhuang's wife was nursing her child under the sun at the door. It was a small house, so there were usually not many visitors. She didn't avoid it in broad daylight, and her clothes were half pulled up.

When she suddenly saw the person, she was shocked. Li Long often came to visit, so Li He was unfamiliar with him.

Da Zhuang's mother was in the yard boiling a pot. When she saw Li He and his brother enter, she smiled and said, "I heard that Erhe is back in the morning. My son even said that he's going to look for you. I said that I'll wait for you to rest and then look for you in the afternoon. I didn't expect you to come. "

His mother wanted to pour water, but Li He quickly waved his hand. "A cup was thrown at home. Don't bother. Where's Zhuang Zi?"

"He's fixing up the pigsty for Yongqiang's family. He went in the morning. I think he's drinking now."

Li He played with the child and stuffed 10 yuan into the child's hand. "He looks like Zhuang Zi. Uncle is leaving this money for you to buy candy."

Da Zhuang's wife glanced at his mother.

Da Zhuang's mother gave the money to Li He. "This is a little too much. Take it back."

Although their lives had been better in the past two years, and the market for social relations in the village had increased, it was only 2 to 3 yuan for relatives in the village, and 58 to 80 yuan for ordinary relatives.

Li He waved his hand, turned around, and walked out the door. "It's for the child. Don't stand on ceremony. I'll go to Fatty Chen's house to take a look. "

Da Zhuang's wife asked, "Who is this? He's so generous. It's 10 yuan."

"The second son of a loafer. The one who's going to university."

"Li something Kun? I used to buy rat medicine from him when I was young. "

"Li Zhaokun. I don't know what kind of luck he has," Da Zhuang's mother said in disdain.

When Li He and his brother arrived, Chen Yongqiang enthusiastically invited them to sit down and drink. Seeing that they didn't want to drink, he said, "Let's go to the riverside to get some fresh air. I'll show you my pigsty. Da Zhuang and I are almost done drinking, and we can't drink anymore."

When they arrived at Chen Yongqiang's pigsty, there were 17 to 18 pigsty with at least 80 pigs.

Li He realized that the pigsty's door was welded with iron posts, so he asked, "Where did you get so much iron from?"

Chen Yongqiang pointed to the other side of the river. "From the people on the other side. They got it from a passing truck. It almost drove the passing driver crazy. "

Da Zhuang said, "You don't know, but many passing drivers who dare to stop their cars will have their goods taken away. Wow, even a few hundred kilograms of iron was carried away, not to mention the money on their bodies. "

People who lived through 1983 couldn't forget the scenes: police cars roaring past everywhere, the people tied up in the bars of the cars …

For Li He, he only remembered the bandits and robbers at the junction of two provinces. Most of them were relatives, and some even worked together in the same village. When the police cars entered the village to arrest people, they might even be tied up together.

Li He said, "Then don't stop the car."

"Don't stop the car? The main road was also blocked by tree trunks, and cars couldn't go through. Even more ruthless, find an old woman to lie on the road, and see if the driver dares to run over her. "

Chen Yongqiang continued, "There are really ruthless drivers who carry machetes, or else they won't be able to scare people."

Li He said, "Do you know who did it?"

Chen Yongqiang chuckled, "I don't know exactly who did it, but there are both on the other side of the river and here. If there's a crime on the other side, the goods will be sold here. Didn't you see that there are a few waste collection stations in town?"

Li He had never thought that there would be such a thing, because the locals later went out to work. Other than driving trucks, the most common jobs were collecting junk. Of course, there were also other jobs, such as hair braiding, bathing pool back scrubbing, fortune-telling, and focusing on building leaks.

Thinking back to the manhole cover incident, Li He suddenly felt that he had been a scapegoat for a lifetime.

Of course, there was nothing he could do. Generally, the junction of two provinces would not be peaceful. Not only Hubei, Henan, and Anhui, but also Xiangxi, Yungui, Guangdong, and Mengshan.
