During the Spring Festival, relatives came and went. After visiting his two uncles, Li He stayed at home.
Steamed buns, pickled beans, and mung bean porridge, the Li family's living standard finally rose to a higher level.
The atmosphere in the morning was a little heavy. Everyone held their bowls and drank the porridge quietly. No one spoke, especially Li Long, who was exuding a very, very unhappy pressure.
Li Long nibbled on the steamed bun without saying a word. His mood was extremely low. He was wondering why he couldn't do what Fatty Chen and Li Hui could do.
The rumbling sound of the diesel engine and the suction pump by the river stimulated his heart.
Sometimes this was how jealousy was born. People couldn't be compared.
Wang Yulan said, "That's hard work. What's there to do? You have so many things to do in your own field. You can't even handle it, so why bother with them? Think about how much stronger we are now. What's there to be dissatisfied with? Just listen to your brother and stop doing it. Yongqiang and the others do their own things. Don't get involved. "
Li Long yelled at Wang Yulan impatiently, "Are you going to let me eat my breakfast this early in the morning? Stop talking nonsense. They have the ability, but I don't. "
In the end, Li Long was still a little angry at Li He for being too involved.
Ever since the Lee family's relationship became better and better, most people would talk about how capable the Lee family's Erhe family was, and how great the Erhe family was. It was already annoying enough for Lee Long to hear it. Now that there were outsiders comparing them to the Lee family, Lee Long couldn't help but feel unhappy.
Li Long was not an open-minded person. He liked to keep everything in his heart. Even if he was unhappy, he would not say it in front of others.
Li He finished the porridge and went out of the house. He leaned against a tree root at the door, took out a cigarette from his cloth pocket, rolled it, and took a puff. He was lost in thought as he looked at the white snow in front of him.
Rural families usually had several children. At that time, the more people there were, the bigger the family. Usually, there would be three or four boys in a rural family. When they were young, the brothers would have a good relationship with each other. After they got married and started a career, there would always be some friction between the brothers in the village. They might even fall out with each other.
For example, the unequal distribution of family property and the problem of supporting the elderly. However, Li He believed that these problems did not exist between the two brothers.
In his previous life, Li He rarely interfered with Li Long due to his third daughter-in-law. However, the relationship between the brothers had always been good.
Li He wondered if he had been too strict with Ol 'Three in his rebirth. He had unconsciously played the role of a father, and Ol' Three had become a little rebellious.
At noon, Li He pulled Li Long aside and asked, "Do you really want to do something on your own?"
Li Long also regretted his impulsiveness in the morning. He thought about it and realized that he had no right to complain. It was because he didn't have the ability. He didn't even have a way to make a living. He was just an old farmer who buried his head in hard work. Since he didn't have the ability, he shouldn't complain. His brother had already done his duty for him.
"It's fine. I've thought it through now. You're right. I have a wife and a child, so there's no need to take that risk. The fields are already enough for me to work on. "
Li He said, "Is that what you really think? You've thought it through. You're a man now, and you should have your own thoughts and responsibilities. I used to control you because I thought you weren't steady, so you should learn more. If you really want to do it, I won't stop you. "
Li Long hesitated for a moment, then said, "I'll listen to you."
"I've already made it very clear that the sand and stone business on both sides of the Huai River isn't easy to do. Do you know how many people have died in the Huai River since ancient times? Do you know how many bones have been buried in the mud? You and Da Zhuang are still young. If you meet a ruthless character, you won't even know how you died. Of course, I might be overthinking it, but I'm not here, and I really can't rest assured that the two of you can do it alone. We all have old and young people to take care of. If something happens, what will we do? Of course, you can also work together with Fatty Chen. He's a more experienced person, so I can be at ease. No matter how good he is, you're still relying on him. What's the point of you doing it? Can it be considered your and Da Zhuang's career? "
Li He's series of rhetorical questions left Li Long speechless. He could only say, "I understand the logic, and I don't want to do it with him. If I want to do it, I'll do it myself. I just don't want to guard these few acres of land. "
Seeing his third brother like this, Li He also felt a little distressed. He was afraid that his words were too harsh, so he could only comfort him, "I'll graduate this year. I'll give you two choices. Either you come with me to the capital, or I'll arrange for you to go south. I have business on both sides. You go and discuss it with Da Zhuang. There's no hurry to reply to me now. Wait until July or August. When the family has settled down, you can send a telegram back to me. "
He wasn't afraid that Li Long would arrange for him to watch over them. Li He wouldn't be at ease no matter what.
"Then I'll go to Da Zhuang later and discuss it with him."
Li He rubbed his third brother's head. "You're my brother, so how could I harm you? I'm happy that you guys are living a better life than me, and I don't really care about it myself."
Li He was speaking from the bottom of his heart. In his own opinion, being reborn was equivalent to living an extra life. Whether it was good or bad, it wasn't a loss. Only when the people he cared about in this life were living well would he feel happy.
Li Long lowered his head in shame, "I know, I understand. I was wrong."
Now that Lee Long understood the reason, he didn't argue any further. Although it wasn't the busy farming season yet, and there wasn't much work to do to earn money, Lee Long wasn't idling around either.
Every morning, he would go out with Da Zhuang to dig traps and scatter tongs. Other than that, he had also cultivated two more plots of land. Every day, he was so busy that he didn't even have time to rest.
From time to time, he would encounter two traps. If it wasn't rabbits, it would be pheasants. There would definitely be meat on the dining table at home.
On the eighth day of the New Year, it was time for Xi Zi to get married. This honest young man had finally found a satisfactory partner, and Li He was sincerely happy for him. He went with Wang Yulan and even asked Wang Yulan to add ten yuan as a gift in private. Although Wang Yulan wasn't very willing, he still agreed in the end because he liked his nephew quite a bit.
After the eighth day, those who worked as labourers worked as labourers, those who sold vegetables sold vegetables, and those who worked as small vendors worked as small vendors.
They also wouldn't forget that they had a few acres of land at home. Spring plowing could not be delayed, and some of the fields that weren't planted with wheat had to be plowed. Their family's rations for a year still depended on this family's few acres of land. This was their proper profession.
Auspicious snow was a sign of a bumper harvest, and the lush green wheat fields would definitely have a good harvest this year.
After the big contract, they didn't have to eat from the same pot anymore. Now that the land was their own, their own time was theirs, and they wished they could crawl in the fields all day long.
It wasn't like before when they were working alone, where they would tightly enclose a living person into a dead person. Now, there were still a few families sharing a cow, and when it was their turn to use the cow, the men would naturally go all out to roll on their own land for a few days.
When Li He's family drew lots to divide the livestock, it was He Dongmei's family, and the other family was Liu Four's family.
At noon, Li He switched Li Long home for lunch, and he went to work himself. He wore rain boots and held the plowshare in the field. The cows around him didn't listen to him, and the plowshare was always empty.
Liu Four smiled and said, "You really aren't suited for farming."
Li He snappily said, "If I were you, don't just stand there. I only have this corner left. Help me finish it, and you can quickly pull the cow away."
