"Wow, he's quite sturdy." Li He stood in the middle and pretended to wipe away Zhao Chunfang's youngest son's tears. He rubbed his son's face with all his might. "You're a grown man. What's the point of crying? You're an uncle. Your nephew didn't cry when he fell to the ground.
"Don't cry. I'll get you some fried dough candy." Zhao Chunfang kept coaxing her son. Seeing that Li He was there, she didn't say much and dragged her son away.
"Did it hurt?" Li He rubbed He Zhou's head. His heart ached. He was indeed his son. If he wasn't happy, he would beat him up! Give him a hundred likes!
"No," He Zhou replied in a childish voice. He stuttered very clearly.
After a while, Zhao Chunfang's son, He Yao, stopped crying. He held the fried dough candy in his hand and showed off to He Zhou, chewing noisily.
"Are you the only one eating it?" The younger brother couldn't stand it and wanted to break one off. However, He Yao cried and threw a tantrum.
"You stupid girl. You can't bear to see your brother doing well." Zhao Chunfang scolded the younger brother.
Li He was angry watching from the side.
However, he didn't say anything. He found two marbles from He Zhou's pocket and dug a small hole at the door to play marbles with him.
"Yes, that's how we play. You can't use your hands to grab them."
He even told him the rules from time to time.
He Zhaodi parked the van at the entrance of the alley. She saw the pair from afar.
When she got closer, she didn't say anything. She just watched the father and son playing happily.
"Sister, you're back." Lai Di came out from the courtyard and broke the silence.
"En." Seeing Li He looking over, Zhao Di quickly wiped her blurry eyes with her hand. "Erhe, you're here."
"Okay," Li He answered simply and mechanically.
"Why is there so much mud on his butt?" Zhao Di touched He Zhou's cotton pants and frowned. "Why is it wet?"
"He didn't say he wanted to go to the toilet. Why did he pee?" Li He blamed himself for being careless.
Zhao Di scolded, "Go play football. My son hasn't wet his bed since he could walk, let alone in broad daylight."
Lai Di giggled at the side. "I was playing with Yao just now. I pushed him to the ground and sat down. There was a pool of water over there, so I didn't pay attention just now."
"This damned child is really asking for a beating." Zhao Di frowned helplessly. She then said to the younger brother, "Help me change my pants. I'll accompany your second brother for a chat."
"Okay." Lai Di carried He Zhou away.
There was no one else around. Li He lit a cigarette and took a deep breath. "Walk with me? Let's have a chat. "
"Sure, what do you want to talk about?" He Zhaodi did not refuse and followed behind him.
"Just chat. I don't charge you for chatting. What are you afraid of?" Li He suddenly felt that He Zhaodi was also changing.
"I'm just afraid that it will affect you badly. Everyone here knows me and your brother." Zhao Di still followed him closely. Occasionally, when she met acquaintances, she would greet them warmly. After living here for a long time, she basically knew all the neighbors.
"What do you think? Your brother is already so big and your mother dotes on him. I don't think this is good for He Zhou. "Li He finally told the truth.
Zhao Di smiled. "It's okay. I'll be moving to the oil factory soon. This house will be given to my mother. They can live separately. It's not a big problem."
"Why are you moving to the oil factory?" Li He was curious.
Zhao Di said, "Because I contracted the oil factory."
"Isn't this factory incurring losses?" Li He did not expect Zhao Di to contract it.
"How can it not incur losses to feed so many people who just eat and don't work? Now that the grain and oil market is open, the market is huge. I used to ship oil, so I know all the customers. As long as there are goods, they won't be able to sell. "She said confidently.
Li He said, "Do you have the import quota for soybeans? If not, it will be very difficult to expand this. "
The annual import quota of soybeans was basically in the hands of big crocodiles like COFCO. If the local oil factory did not have the raw materials, it would be very difficult to expand.
"I'm not as ambitious as you. I'm satisfied with a little profit. Where can't I get cottonseed, rapeseed, oil sunflower? It's none of my business whether the quota is allocated or not. "
"That's true." Li He finally realized where this woman had changed.
It was not as simple as a haircut. She began to have her own opinions and showed more of her capable and independent side. She became more and more charming.
However, she no longer agreed with him and relied on him.
He began to think back to the past.
Back then …
Back then …
He still loved her innocence and persistence.
"I have my own ways. Don't worry." He Zhaodi smiled. "Let's go back. Let's have a drink tonight. "
"No, as long as you're happy." Li He shook his head and then asked tentatively, "Why don't you give me the child?"
"What are you thinking?" Zhao Di slapped him angrily. "Go do what you have to do. I'm leaving."
"Take care." Looking at her tall and straight back, he did not even know that the cigarette butt was burning his hand.
He went to find the handbike. He did not go home directly. Instead, he planned to spend the night at Li Long's house and stroll around the county before going back.
He rejected Old Fourth Liu and the others who came to ask for a drink. He cooked a pot of porridge on the small stove. The sweet potatoes and mung beans in the pot were stewed until they were mushy. He held the bowl and drank the porridge, wishing he could have more.
Liu Four and the others were drinking and it was really eye-catching. He couldn't help but drink a cup. After that, he refused to drink anymore. Then, no matter how long they played the finger-guessing game and drank, he went to Li Pei's house, locked the door, and fell asleep on the bed.
The next day, he was in high spirits. Seeing his brother's confident expression, Lee Long felt that it was a bit ridiculous.
Li He said, "Give me the motorcycle key."
Li Long said, "Drive my van."
"Then what do you drive?"
"I have more than one car."
"Why didn't you say so earlier!" Li He kicked him angrily.
"Sigh, it's always been parked at the door." Li Long felt wronged.
"I didn't drive it back even during the New Year." Li He looked at the alley outside the door. It was indeed a silver Duke, and there was a gray van beside it.
"How do we drive on that road …" Li Long felt bad for the car.
"Then give me the key."
"Hey, what car is it?" Li Long noticed that his brother's gaze was on the silver car.
"Stop wasting time." Li He snatched the van key angrily. "Driving a van is a disgrace to you, Boss Li. I'll drive the van myself."
Li Long looked at Li He walking away and asked Duan Mei, "Did I offend him?"
Duan Mei said sarcastically, "How would I know anything about you, Boss Li?"
"What the f * ck. Go ahead." Li Long stomped his feet angrily.
The sun slowly drew a ray of light and rose slowly, marking the beginning of the day on the bustling street.
Li He liked the liveliness. With this liveliness, people could live happily and freely.
Early in the morning, he encountered a few quarrels. He even got out of the car to watch. In the end, they only talked and did not fight. He could only watch anxiously.
"This shows that the quality of the people in our county has improved!" A person who looked like a cadre sighed with his hands behind his back.
Li He was about to nod in approval when he heard another cry.
"Catch the thief!"
The crowd was like boiling dumplings in a pot, scurrying up and down. No one could tell who was the thief and who was the victim.
Li He didn't care and drove to Ye Zhi's side. Receiving a drop of water from someone should be returned with a spring.
Ye Zhi was eating fried dough sticks while arranging the goods. Hearing the urgent sound of a car horn, she looked up and saw that it was Li He. She was very happy, "You left yesterday without saying goodbye?"
Li He parked the car and came over with a smile, "Seeing that you were so busy with business, I couldn't help you, so I didn't want to bother you."
"Thank you. Thank you for your help yesterday." Ye Zhi smiled happily, "You really have the ability to come up with such a good excuse. Tell me, is there really a person called Jiang Biehe? He took so much money and ran away with his sister-in-law? "
"I only heard it when I was out of town. I learned it on the spot. How would I know the actual situation?" Li He was a little confused by the question.
"That's true. I just don't think it's true. 350 million! How much is that? "Ye Zhi's eyes sparkled," You're good at math. How many zeros are there? "
"Eight." Li He didn't even hesitate.
"Really?" Ye Zhi counted with her fingers, "Ten, ten, ten million … It really is."
"Your grades were better than mine back then, and you still ask me." Li He couldn't help but roll his eyes at her silly and cute look. But for a man, it was quite a sense of accomplishment.
"I'm a girl, how can I compare with a boy."
"Big sister?" Li He got goosebumps from her cute tone and wanted to ask her if she needed to take medicine.
"Go away! Who are you calling big sister? I'm so old! "
