Li He said to Liu Four, a bachelor sitting in the corner, "Four, how long has it been since you last changed your clothes? It smells." [Love ↑ Go △ Small ↓ Talk △ Net w
】
Liu Four sniffed himself with his nose and then said a very classic sentence, "Damn it! It's not my fault. Why does it rain every time I wash clothes? "
From this sentence, the following conclusion could be drawn: The frequency of Liu Four washing clothes was less than the frequency of rain.
Liu Four was small and thin. His family was poor and his body had not grown up. He was timid and obedient. He talked and laughed. He did not have a temper. He was in his thirties and did not have a wife. His mother burned incense and prayed to Buddha every day, praying that her son would get married soon.
Li He looked at this happy-go-lucky bachelor. No one would have thought that he would become rich by picking up junk and collecting scrap metal. Every year, when he returned to his hometown, he would set off tens of thousands of yuan to hear the sound of fireworks.
Li He said, "It's eight o 'clock now. Let's play until eleven o' clock. Win or lose. Bullfight is fine. "
Li Hui said, "Two cents at the very least. Bullfight doubles. Bullfight triples. Bullfight fourteen times. What do you think?"
"That's too small. It should be at least ten cents, right?" Fatty Chen thought that a few cents worth of cards was boring.
The people at the other table had already started playing mahjong. A few people were cursing. The stakes for playing mahjong were very small, ten cents per round.
"Where's your Japanese card? Hurry up! Home, hurry up! "
"A thousand cuts are not the same as the first."
"If you win, a mountain of gold will not bubble. If you lose, your pants will not surrender."
The cards played by the previous table were often eaten by Li Hui. Li Hui scolded, "I'm a happy breeder."
Li Hui hit a pancake and shouted, "A pile of sh * t." Pan Guangcai, who was sitting next to him, quickly said, "I ate it."
Li He looked at Liu Four, who was extremely jealous. If he lost too much, he probably wouldn't have a peaceful New Year. He interrupted Fatty Chen and said, "Everyone knows that you're rich and willful. I can't afford to lose more than 2 points. Let's draw a card, whoever has the biggest card will be the first player. "
Hearing Li He's words, the others no longer objected. The top card, Liu Four, drew an eight of hearts, which was considered the highest, and began to be the banker.
Liu Four's luck was good tonight. After a few rounds, he won two dollars. He was beaming with joy.
At eleven o 'clock, Li He had lost three dollars. The room was getting colder. He looked at the time and said, "It's almost time. It's too cold. My feet are numb."
Li Hui had lost thirty cents, but he still wanted to earn back what he lost. He was a little unwilling.
"Let's go, we still have to wake up early tomorrow morning to send the new year off," Fatty Chen said, then looked at Liu Four who was smiling and counting the money, "How much did you win?"
Liu Four chuckled and said, "4.30 dollars. Luck, luck."
Seeing that the people who were playing cards had left, the people who were playing mahjong were still in high spirits. They didn't want to leave and continued.
When they got home, Four got Li He a basin of water to wash his feet. Li He sat comfortably on a small stool to soak his feet.
Wang Yulan was sewing clothes by the kerosene lamp. Her sleeves and pants were worn or torn, revealing a few big and small holes.
This scene made Li He sigh. He couldn't help but say, "What are you doing tonight? You might hurt your eyes. Wait until tomorrow."
Wang Yulan scratched the needle on her head and said, "Your sister and the others will be back tomorrow. They still have to cook. Where will they have time to do this?"
"I bought so much fabric. It should be enough to make new clothes. If it's too tattered, I'll just throw it away."
Although Li He was a rough man and it didn't matter whether his clothes were good or bad, sometimes he felt uncomfortable wearing patched clothes, and he didn't lack money for clothes.
Unexpectedly, Wang Yulan said, "You're more exquisite than others. Look at these clothes. They're fine. Just a few stitches and they'll be fine. It's a pity to throw them away."
Li He thought about it and couldn't refute it. A child using a fertilizer bag to make shorts could be so excited that she could fly. He could only say, "Then you should light another candle. It's not good to hurt your eyes."
Seeing that Wang Yulan didn't listen and was still sitting there without moving, Li He could only get up and pour out the water to wash his feet. He lit a new candle for Wang Yulan, and the room was much brighter than before.
Li He turned around and returned to his room. Just as he reached the door, he found that the light in Wang Yulan's room had dimmed again. He smiled helplessly.
The next morning, he woke up early again. Hearing the sounds of Wang Yulan and Four working inside and outside the room, he couldn't sleep anymore. When Li Long finished setting off the firecrackers, the family had a lively breakfast.
On the first day of the New Year, they didn't take out the broom or take out the garbage. They prepared a big bucket of waste water and didn't splash it on the day. They also couldn't break the furniture on the New Year, as it was a sign of bankruptcy. They had to quickly say, "Happy New Year (s)" or "Flowers bloom, wealth and glory."
When Li He came back with his siblings, Li Mei's family was already there.
Yang Xuewen's eyes were full of work. He naturally took a sickle and walked out of the courtyard. He went to the river slope to cut some pigweed and brought it home. He used a knife to mince it and mixed it with cornmeal to feed the chickens, ducks, and geese in the courtyard.
Seeing that a few bricks on the wall of the pigpen had been dug out by the pigs, he picked up a tile knife and repaired the pigpen.
This year, they raised quite a number of white geese, ducks, and hens. There were more than fifty of them in total. Whether it was chicken eggs, duck eggs, or goose eggs, Wang Yulan put them all in a rattan basket. At the moment, the basket was already half filled with eggs.
Li He took the child from Li Mei's arms and said with a smile, "This child is good. He's not shy with strangers."
Li Mei said, "Calling him Yang Huai is good. His grandmother said that the word 'Huai' is good. She also said that cultured people are different. Then you carry him. I'll go to the kitchen to clean up. Four can't handle it alone. "
The grandmother here was the Yang family's Old Madam. She naturally treasured the only boy in her great-grandchild's generation. Ever since Li Mei entered the family, she seemed to have lost her mind. She didn't get sick anymore. She looked after the child and cooked all day. She was full of energy.
Yang Xuewen washed his hands and came over to take the child. "This child is quite heavy. When are you leaving? I'll tell you that you know more than me. You still need to help me with my fish pond."
"Have you bought books from the bookstore?" Li He was only half-baked in the field of fish farming. He could only do his duty to remind her.
"I bought a few books. I read them occasionally. It shouldn't be a big problem. I've already fertilized the fish pond. It's almost spring. I'll throw in the fry." Yang Xuewen seemed to be very excited.
"Your fish pond is in a depression, so there won't be a shortage of water. But take note that there will be a lot of pig farms and paper factories opening upstream. The fish will die easily. Also, we often lose water. Once the pond is filled, the fish will run away. "This was all Li He could think of.
"I built a pile at the fish pond's embankment. It's fine. If there's water, I can't do anything even if I surround it with a net. "
At noon, Li Mei cooked and prepared a big table. Li He took out all the good wine. The two brothers accompanied Yang Xuewen to drink.
Yang Xuewen's alcohol tolerance was quite good. Li He couldn't compete with him. Halfway through, he left, leaving only Li Long and Yang Xuewen to drink.
