A Genius in a Second to Remember Love Go? To provide you with exciting novels to read.
This New Year's Eve didn't have many new ideas. The New Year's bell rang loudly, and thousands of firecrackers went off. Although the firecrackers weren't as magnificent as the fireworks, they were like the rolling spring tide, shaking the corners of the village.
On New Year's Eve, when the dinner was served, there was a sudden power outage.
Li He didn't check the circuit, as he was already mentally prepared for a power outage. Power outages were a common problem. Moreover, it was the New Year's Eve, and it was the peak time for electricity consumption, so there was nothing to be alarmed about.
Wang Yulan lit the kerosene lamp in the dark, but she suddenly couldn't find the lampshade. She shouted at Five, "Did you take it to play with? Where did you put it? Hurry up and look for it, it's so troublesome. "
Five felt wronged and said, "It's so dirty, I don't want to play with it."
Li He quickly smoothed things over, "It's fine if you don't have a lampshade. You can just put it in the central room, there's no wind in the room. If you go to the kitchen, there are candles in the drawer. I bought a lot of them in the county, it's enough for the kitchen. "
Li He opened the drawer and lit a candle, making the room brighter.
Wang Yulan said, "That's such a waste, we can just have the kerosene lamp."
Li He said, "The child is running around, and when someone comes later, it'll be too dark to see anything."
Wang Yulan didn't discount the New Year's Eve dinner, and there was a complete set of chicken, duck, and fish. Li He and his brother opened a bottle of Maotai, and Li Long said, "It's still a good wine, and it doesn't go to your head at all. Let's finish this bottle."
Duan Mei said, "Don't drink too much, you'll have to bring the child to pay New Year's greetings later."
Li Long was very obedient, and he drank the last glass of wine before passing the bottle to Li He. He didn't want to drink anymore.
Seeing that her son was being controlled by her daughter-in-law again, Wang Yulan was a little unhappy and said, "I won't drink properly on New Year's Eve. When will we drink? Drink more, I'll take care of the child later."
Duan Mei said, "You can't coax the child to sleep, he's very noisy at night. My stomach is also making a lot of noise tonight. I haven't been able to sleep well for the whole night. Long Zi drinks too, and I can't sleep well at night. "
When Li He saw the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law arguing over such a small matter, he didn't care. All he cared about was eating his food and drinking his wine.
However, Wang Yulan had a soft personality after all, so she couldn't do anything.
After dinner, Wang Yulan took out her handkerchief and gave each of them one yuan as a New Year gift. Only his eldest grandson made an exception and gave him two yuan.
Li He also gave Li Pei five yuan as New Year's money. This time, the child was not shy. He stared at the money and refused to let go. He even called Li He uncle.
Li He said, "He's going to be a money-grubber in the future."
Five reached out to Li He, "Where's mine?"
"I don't have money, but I do have clapping. Do you want it? Go play on the side, wash your face, and go visit your third brother. "Seeing that Five was about to pout, Li He quickly took out five dollars." You're not allowed to cry during the New Year. If you dare to cry, I'll beat you up and let you cry to your heart's content. "
Five immediately took it with a smile. Li He sighed. Indeed, the crying child had milk.
Because Li Zhaokun and Li Mei weren't home this year, it wasn't good for Li He to go visit. If someone came to visit, he wouldn't be able to greet them. Wang Yulan couldn't do it alone.
Because Duan Mei was pregnant and her body was heavy, she let Li Long send her home after dinner and went straight to bed. After sending Duan Mei off, Li Long carried the child and left with Four and Five.
Li He saw Wang Yulan busy in the kitchen and went over to help heat up the stove. "The water is hot enough, right?"
Wang Yulan said, "Go take out the peanuts and melon seeds. When people come, don't lose them."
"I'll go get them later. I think they'll have to wait for a while. Our family ate early, and I think they've just set off the firecrackers."
Wang Yulan sighed and said, "When you graduate this year and get married, I'll be completely relieved. If your father comes back, I'll take back Third Brother's land and plant it myself. I won't get involved with them. "
Li He said, "I'm getting married early, so don't worry about it. I'll deal with my own matters. Just give the land to Third Brother and ask him to give you as much food as you need every year. It'll be enough for the three of you to eat. I'll give you the money. I'll pay for Four and Five's school fees, so you don't have to worry about it. Just eat, drink, and sleep well. "
"That's easy for you to say. You're already 23, so it's still early. If we delay it any longer, we'll be an old bachelor. We can't find a girl in the city, but there are plenty at home. "Wang Yulan had this bit of confidence. After all, her son would be eating commodity food after graduation, so he would be able to pick a good match.
Li He took out a ring from his pocket and handed it to Wang Yulan. "This is for you. Try it on."
This gold ring was something that Old Man Lee had gotten from somewhere. It was rare, and Li He liked it, so he kept it.
Wang Yulan said, "Where did you get it from?"
"Take it first. Wipe your hands clean."
Wang Yulan wiped her hands clean with a rag and carefully took the ring. She squinted at it in the dim candlelight and looked at it for a while. "This is old, right?"
"I don't have the land to buy a new one. I bought it from someone else and kept it for you. Try it on."
Wang Yulan said, "You're already so old. Wearing something like this, it'll be too eye-catching. You keep it for yourself. "
Li He directly put the ring on Wang Yulan's right ring finger. The size was quite suitable. "Not bad, it's quite pretty. Wear this old one for now. I'll give you a new one later. "
Although the color had faded from oxidation, it still looked a little golden under the candlelight.
Wang Yulan turned her hand over and over a few times. She gritted her teeth and said, "Then I'll wear it first. I don't have to spend this money in the future, so why buy a new one?"
As the conditions had improved over the past few years, many people had dug out old items and wore gold and silver. Wang Yulan had seen this at the commune.
Li He took out another stack of money and stuffed it into Wang Yulan's jacket pocket. "This is 2,000 yuan. I'll give you this amount every year. Spend where you need to spend. Four and Five will be under me from now on."
"Where did you get so much money from? Don't tell me you're fooling around outside again?" Wang Yulan asked anxiously.
"Look, you're worrying for nothing again. When did I let you worry about me? Take it if I give it to you. "
"I have my own money. Your father couldn't find it no matter how many times he tried," Wang Yulan continued in a low voice, "Then I'll save it for you. You'll definitely need it when you get married in the future. You'll just waste money."
Li He left the kitchen and lit a cigarette. He probably wouldn't be able to express his affection for his mother in two lifetimes, such as giving Wang Yulan a hug, giving her a back massage, or saying, "I love you, mom." It was just that the love between mother and son was so deep that it was hard to say it out loud.
As soon as Li He finished his cigarette, Li Zhaoming and Li Zhaohui's children came. Li He filled everyone's pockets with peanuts and candies that he bought from the county.
The children happily received the candies. When they went out, they attracted a lot of other children. Because the candies were good, they all came.
Li He bought a lot of candies to begin with, so he wasn't stingy and gave each of the children a big handful.
When Chen Yongqiang and Li Hui came, they all wanted to play cards.
Li He said, "It's fine as long as you don't cry when you lose money."
More people came one after another. Li He felt that he couldn't play at home anymore. Coincidentally, he had the key to the village committee. "Let's go to the village committee. It's big enough."
The group of people naturally agreed. They went to the village committee and started a game of mahjong. They put together two tables.
