Genius One Second Remember If You Want To Go? Shuo → Net provides you with wonderful novels to read.

Just like that, Fu Xia stayed for two days before leaving. Li He gave Fu Xia a suggestion. "Those experienced artists with real skills should be able to work with them. 【Love ↑ Go △ Small ↓ Say △ Net



It takes time to accumulate those skills. It's not something that can be mastered in three to five years. You must keep it. Do you think you will be the only furniture factory in the future? Their salary is just a few dollars higher than yours, and they can poach you away. You won't even have a place to cry. "

Fu Xia carried her bag and said casually, "I know. I'm not an idiot. If I really don't understand, I'll just listen to you and find a book to read."

Li He felt that it would be a waste of his breath to say more. He walked out of the door and looked at the inverted donkey that was parked at the entrance.

Then he asked the two young men squatting on the doorstep, "Is this how you rode over?"

The two young men were both in their twenties and were wearing white shirts. Their foreheads were covered in sweat, and their shirts were sticking to their bodies. The other young man seemed to be hostile towards Li He. Only the other young man said, "Yeah, we rode for more than five hours."

Li He couldn't stand the heat. "Why don't you rest for a while and wait for the weather to cool down before you leave?"

The two young men glanced at Fu Xia, and Fu Xia said, "Let's go, or we won't be able to get home when it gets dark."

Fu Xia put on the straw hat and jumped into the car. However, the car was so hot that it almost burned her hands.

He reckoned that even an egg would be cooked in it.

The three of them were not afraid of the heat, so they left at noon.

Li He thought that the Skinny Monkey would be back soon, so he went to the post office to send a telegram to call the lawyer over.

Skinny Monkey's wife had given birth to a daughter. Skinny Monkey was overjoyed. As a father, one could imagine how he felt when he couldn't see his daughter. He was burning with anxiety and wanted to come back. He sent a telegram to ask for Li He's opinion.

Li He felt that it wasn't a big deal for Skinny Monkey to come back. The situation had stabilized, so he agreed to let Skinny Monkey come back.

He wasn't afraid of the heat anymore. He took off his shoes and went to the post office. He sent three telegrams in a row. One of them was to Skinny Monkey, telling him that he could come back. The other one was for Su Ming, telling him that he could come back. The last letter was for the useless lawyer, telling him to bring the documents and come over as soon as possible.

After leaving the post office, it was still unbearably hot. There were tea stalls all around the entrance. He ordered a big bowl of tea and drank it under the shade of a tree. Only then did he have a chance to catch his breath.

He Fang came back with big and small bags. She looked at Li He and said, "What a surprise. You actually wore clean clothes when I wasn't here."

Li He said, "Fu Xia came back yesterday."

"No wonder." He Fang took everything out and went to take a shower.

Li He made a bowl of egg noodles for him. "Eat it first. I'll be depending on your cooking tonight."

He Fang drank some cold water first before picking up the bowl to eat. "Your noodles are all broken. It's not chewy."

"There's a gas station nearby. I'll go buy a gas tank in the afternoon. Cooking with kerosene stoves smells." At this time, there were only a few people in the city who used gas tanks. Most people used kerosene stoves, coal stoves, or firewood stoves. When it came to cooking at night, the smell of kerosene in the air was not pleasant.

"You've grown up. Tell me the address and I'll go. You're so clumsy."

"A tank of gas weighs more than 60 kilograms. Forget it." Li He thought for a moment and continued, "Old Zhao's wife and children have been brought here. Why don't you cook and call them out for dinner?"

Zhao Yongqi had already brought his wife and children over for more than a month. He even called Li He over for a home-cooked meal.

When Li He invited them back, he wanted to invite them to a restaurant. However, he felt that it would be too insincere. It would be better to cook at home. He could also get to know the place.

However, his cooking skills really couldn't pass the test. He still had to wait for He Fang to come back. Moreover, He Fang and Old Zhao were classmates. It wouldn't be right to wait for He Fang to come back.

Li He didn't call anyone else. He only called Zhao Yongqi's family.

His eldest son was also 14 years old. His daughter was also 12 years old. The two children were no longer as timid as they were when they first came.

Li He asked Old Zhao, "You've heated the kang bed for your wife and children. It's very comfortable."

Zhao Yongqi shook his head and smiled bitterly.

Old Zhao's wife was a quick-witted person. She was unhappy that Old Zhao had forgotten his roots after only a few days as a city dweller. "Eh, how many times have I told you not to throw away the celery leaves? You just won't listen. You've been burning the money you earn. That's not the way to live! During the famine, we didn't even have tree bark to eat. With such good celery leaves, our ancestors must have done a great deed! Now that life is better, don't forget to be thrifty. "

He Fang was cooking in the kitchen. This old lady didn't stay idle either. She helped He Fang cook. "Sister, don't cook so much. Cooking is a waste. Eating vegetables is a waste. It would be strange if you don't squander. Life is good now, but it doesn't mean it will be good in the future. Save as much as you can. The cabbage leaves that our family ate a few days ago were picked up by me from the market. Those vegetable sellers are the same. There are a few bug holes on the shiny white vegetable leaves. They can just gouge them out, but they actually threw them away and stepped on them. I said I wanted them, and they quickly gave them to me. Look, I didn't spend a single cent, and we have a meal to eat. This is how we live our lives. This money is saved from the cracks between our teeth. If you don't know how to save, you'll be extravagant. That's why you don't know how to live. "

He Fang smiled and said, "Big Sister, you're right. At that time, I saw the fish seller throw away the fish's organs. It was a pity. When I came back to make soup, it tasted good."

The two of them seemed to have found a common language, and they chatted very enthusiastically.

Li He took two apples and said to the two children who were sitting on the chair with a serious expression, "Why don't you go to the yard to play? There's a pond there with fish inside. Why are you so restrained here?"

The two children were a little moved and glanced at Zhao Yongqi.

"Go play." Zhao Yongqi waved his hand and said, then sighed, "These two children are too tightly controlled by their mother. Don't look at how uneducated this aunt of mine is, she has a set of principles. I can't even win against her. She also understands reason. A few days ago, when someone came to give me a gift, she forcefully threw it out. Guess what she said? "This is forcing a man to make a mistake."

After Zhao Yongqi finished speaking, he burst into laughter again.

Li He brewed a cup of tea for Zhao Yongqi, and said with a smile, "You're doing pretty well here, there's even someone who walks through your back door."

Zhao Yongqi took a sip of tea and shook his head, "How is it going through my back door? I'm the one who's going through the back door. They want to go through the back door of a big leader through me. You're living a good life. You live in such a big house, and it's easy for you to go to work.

Li He said, "Didn't you buy a pretty good house?" Why do you have to envy me? I'm the one who envies you. Your future is bright. "

Under Li He's encouragement, Zhao Yongqi bought a small house last year. When his wife arrived, she was overjoyed. She cleaned the house until it was spotless. She even wanted to clean the house from the cracks in the bricks.

"Don't give me that, you just lack the drive to improve yourself. "Everyone has their own ambitions anyway, I won't force you." Zhao Yongqi didn't understand Li He. He was clearly smart and capable, but he had to hide it.
