He didn't collect the eels anymore, and he could finally sleep peacefully. Every day, he would bring his sleeping mat to the courtyard and sleep until he woke up naturally.
At this moment, the sun was starting to shine. It shone through the gaps between the trees and shone on Li He's face. He wanted to continue sleeping, but he was afraid that his sleepiness would disappear. He stood up and tried to close the curtains, but his body tilted and he staggered. He woke up and looked up at the bright sun. He was just sleepwalking.
Subconsciously, he returned to the mansion with the big, comfortable bed and wide open floor-to-ceiling windows. It seemed like he could not let go of it in his previous life. Li He got up and washed his face. He looked at his slightly tanned face in the water. He could not be considered handsome. At best, he had regular features and was a little thin. He had a sparse mustache and did not look good. At one glance, it was obvious that he had not fully grown hair. There were a few pimples on his face that could not be squeezed clean. He patted his face in disgust. Puberty was also like this.
When a bird grows up, no forest can hide it. Although Li Zhaokun was still the same, the siblings treated him as an invisible man. Li He felt that he had made all the necessary arrangements before he left. The only thing he was worried about was his eldest sister's marriage. However, his eldest brother-in-law's family was poor, and he had no parents. Although he had a grandmother, the old lady was not in good health, and the old man was getting on in years. Their lives couldn't get any worse. In the production team, no matter how hard a man worked, or how much he worked, it didn't matter how much he worked. Before he made it big, there wouldn't be any blind people who would try to get close to him. Therefore, Li He wasn't that worried about his eldest sister's marriage. Even if he created an opportunity for them now, school was about to start, and they didn't have that much time.
At the moment, the whole family was busy preparing for the feast. Li He made the decision to order a big fat pig from Chen Yongqiang. He slaughtered more than 300 kilograms of meat. These days, people did not care about balance and nutrition. The most important thing was that there must be meat, fat, and large pieces of meat. The most important thing was that there must be a lot of food and wine.
Li He prepared the wine, meat, and vegetables and left the rest to Li Zhaokun. Li He could not interfere with the rules of the village. If he made a mistake, he might be scolded for being insensible. [Love ↑ Go △ Little ↓ Say △ Net

Li Zhaokun invited the master chef the day before. Every village had its own master chef. These masters could make the first table of banquets in a year. Their skills were absolutely amazing. They set up a table and a stove in the corner of the yard and set up three to five big pots. Then, they borrowed tables, chairs, pots, bowls, ladles, and kettles from other families. If it was their own family, they would not be able to gather all of it. The villagers would borrow each other's things when holding a wedding. The banquet would be held in their own yard.
The day before the banquet, Li He's first uncle, second uncle, and third aunt came early to help chop, chop, and wash the vegetables. When it was time to sleep at night, his aunt's family went to Li Fucheng's place. Wang Yulan's maternal family did not want to trouble others, so they squeezed in here. The women and children slept in the house, while the men slept outside directly on the mats.
The next day, they all woke up early. Li Zhaokun was orderly. He distributed the work to who did it, who would be troublesome to do it, and who would be invited to do it. There was no ambiguity at all. There was someone to carry water, someone to chop firewood, someone to cook, someone to pick and wash vegetables, someone to clean the table, someone to wash the dishes, someone to help the kitchen, someone to carry the square plates, someone to boil the big teapot, and someone to serve tea and pour water. There was a lot of work inside and outside.
Li He had to be an obedient child. After Li Zhaokun greeted them, he had to serve cigarettes to them. There were 12 tables for the banquet. Although half of the tables were occupied by children, Li He had to follow behind and toast to them table by table. Moreover, he could not be ambiguous. In the end, his brain would be buzzing and he would not be able to hear what others said. After the toast, Li Zhaokun looked at Li He, whose face was pale and the corners of his eyes were red. He scolded, "How can you drink so little? You're not like me at all."
Second life was not long. Some wonderful things could only be experienced once, and some painful things needed to be experienced twice.
When Li He woke up from his sleep in the small forest, there were only a few relatives left at home. They were almost done. After delivering a few benches, they were done. The relatives had packed up unfinished fish and pork for them, and they were overjoyed. After the relatives had finished, the siblings took turns to deliver some leftover food to the people who had been helping in the kitchen for the past two days. This was also a custom in the countryside.
In the evening, after Li Zhaokun finished calculating the gifts, he muttered and scolded, "Holy sh * t, I've suffered a great loss."
Li Mei asked curiously, "How much?"
Li Zhaokun said, "27 yuan 52 cents, not including the 30 yuan given by the production team, it is not even enough for cigarettes and alcohol. I bought 47 yuan for cigarettes and alcohol, and they are very clean. Not to mention the food, these old guys have taken advantage of me."
Li He did not expect much from the gifts. He just wanted to show off. He said, "It's okay. Anyway, it's just this once. Look at who didn't praise you in the afternoon. If you don't come back, we can't have fun at home at all."
Li He praised him sincerely. Without him, they really couldn't have fun at home. Li Zhaokun was also a person who cared a lot about his reputation. Today, he got such a big scene, so he was very happy. "Nonsense, we are the first one in the Li Village. Whoever offers Hongtashan, whoever offers wine to welcome us, the pork will be enough for their gifts to be multiplied by several times."
It was rare for Li Zhaokun to be so normal today. He was able to speak calmly. Li He tried to persuade him. "Dad, I think I'll leave soon. The family still needs to rely on you. Why don't you stay at home? With someone to take care of us, life at home is still okay." “
Li Zhaokun glanced at Li He and said, "Don't interfere in my business. Don't think that you are great just because you got into a university."
Li He almost spat out a mouthful of blood. Watching Li Zhaokun busying himself, the little bit of goodwill he had gained during the day was now gone.
In the middle of the night, Li He was lying in the courtyard. Actually, he was not asleep. Based on the memories of his previous life, he knew what would happen. He hoped that there would be changes in this life. Happiness was not the end of the long road, nor was it the other side of the river, but the small changes along the way.
Obviously, he was disappointed.
In the middle of the night, he heard the creaking sound of the door opening in the house. A figure slowly retreated from the house and closed the door, carrying a bag in his hand.
When the figure passed by Li He, he paused for about two minutes. Then, he squatted down and opened his bag, seemingly taking something out. He picked up a stone from the ground and placed it on top of the bag. Finally, he stood up and left without looking back.
Li He slowly stood up and ran out of the courtyard. Looking at the figure walking further and further away, he couldn't help but cry. It wasn't that he wanted to cry, it was just that he couldn't cry when he wanted to. His tears fell unconsciously.
Even if he was reborn, he still could not change the ending he should have. He suddenly felt that rebirth was an illusion, a dream. He was powerless and could not change anything. He was so helpless and hesitant.
Lying on the mat, watching the sky outside getting brighter little by little, he did not feel sleepy at all.
At dawn, there was a burst of crying in the house. Li He did not comfort Wang Yulan. Maybe she would get used to it after crying.
In the end, Li Zhaokun left. Probably only he knew what he was looking for.
Li Mei quietly pulled Li He aside and whispered, "He took all mom's money, except for 100 yuan."
Li He took out a 10-yuan banknote from his pocket that Li Zhaokun had pressed in front of his feet when he left in the middle of the night and said, "He left me 100 yuan."
Most of the money at the banquet was from the siblings' small coffers. Wang Yulan's money was basically not touched. Plus the savings at this stage, even if the 200 yuan left was deducted, Li Zhaokun had at least 1,600 yuan when he left.
The whole family was in a state of depression that day. Old Master Li Fucheng came to see them, and his cigarette pot was broken.
After lunch, he said goodbye to Da Zhuang and asked him to hitch the donkey cart to go to the commune in the afternoon. Li He was about to start school, so he needed to get the household registration certificate.
He went to the commune first and then to the police station. He was familiar with the way. When the police saw that he was the county's top scholar, although he did not want to curry favor with him, he did not neglect him. He even teased him with a smile. In the time it took to smoke a cigarette, he wrote the certificate and stamped it with an official seal. That was it. When Li He left, he politely gave him two packs of cigarettes.
On the way back, he met He Jun, the commune cadre who had sent him the notice last time. Li He got off the donkey cart and greeted him, "Cadre He, long time no see."
He Jun stopped his bicycle and said, "Hello, Classmate Li. Long time no see. What are you doing?"
Li He shook a few pieces of paper in his hand and said, "Hehe, school is about to start. I'm going to get the household registration certificate done."
He Jun smiled and said, "I thought you forgot. I was going to urge you when I had time."
Li He felt that He Jun was also a considerate person. In the future, He Jun would also be a local bully. It would not be bad to make friends with a local man. He said, "How can I forget? If you have nothing to do, do me the honor. Let's go to the bridgehead for a drink."
He Jun didn't refuse. He agreed and walked toward the restaurant at the end of the bridge.
He Jun hid his intention to take care of the younger generation. Li He was thinking about short-term investment and long-term returns. Both of them had made up their minds to treat each other. When ordering the dishes, no one was polite. Chicken, duck, fish, and fish were all available.
Da Zhuang was speechless. There was a commune cadre next to him. He did not dare to interrupt. Usually, when they saw Liu Chuanji, these brigade cadres, they would be frightened.
However, the restaurant owner next to them understood their intention. He smiled and said, "There are so many dishes. So the three of you can finish them all?"
Li He was very familiar with the restaurant owner. He collected eels at the bridgehead every day. His meals were settled at this restaurant. He was not pretentious. He smiled and said, "Then you can order your specialty. If you don't like it, I won't pay. I won't pay even if you beat me to death."
The restaurant owner smiled and pointed to the banner on the wall. "It's a small business. No credit."
The few of them burst into laughter.
