Of course, he didn't stop there. That night, he had a door-to-door service.
"Thank you." Zhao Di plucked up the courage to lie on his body for the first time.
"That's what I should do." Li He turned her over and teased, "Even without me, Chu Xiurong is no match for you."
In fact, he was just one more person to take the lead. If he didn't take the lead, Li Hui would take the lead, and Fatty Chen wouldn't hesitate either. With these two people taking the lead, Fourth Liu and the others who were one with them couldn't hide even if they wanted to. They had to follow!
"Of course." Zhao Di actually agreed with Li He's words. She, He Zhaodi, didn't live for nothing!
"I'll leave in a few days." Li He didn't expect that he would stay in his hometown for so long. He had broken the record.
"You say it like you're always at home."
"You don't care about me?"
Zhao Di played with her nails. Her indifferent attitude made Li He very uncomfortable.
"You care about me?" Zhao Di asked back.
"Of course I care." Li He answered without hesitation.
"Then I care."
"Take good care of the kids at home." Li He said what he thought needed to be said.
"My son." It seemed that what Li He said was nonsense. "You have your own son."
"I …" Li He found that this woman's words were getting more and more irritating. "They are all my sons."
Zhao Di came for three nights in a row and left in the middle of the night. Li He also habitually left the door open after dinner. However, from the fourth night, she didn't come back. When he heard that Hunchback Wu went to Pearl City, he was very disappointed.
Every morning, the man who sold game in the market would bring him a rabbit or occasionally two pheasants. He didn't stop for a week. No matter how delicious it was, Li He was tired of it.
So he gave him 200 yuan and asked him to bring it to Old Grandma's house every day. After that, he didn't need to do it anymore.
Although the person selling the game felt that it was a pity, he was content. He had already earned a lot of money from Li He. It was equivalent to selling a big fat pig, and it was free. Hunting game was just a waste of time.
Zhang Zhuyang had come twice. Li He wanted to talk to him about something, so it was understandable that he wanted to help him. However, Zhang Zhuyang didn't want to lose face, so he didn't want to reveal anything.
There was no reason for Li He to climb up the pole. He was not in a hurry.
Almost all of Li Zhuang's men had left. From Fatty Chen to Li Hui, they were either digging sand or going to their sports cars. None of them stayed at home. Only he seemed to have nothing to do all day.
In fact, he still had things to do. When he had time, he would go to the county or town to check on the development of the logistics project. This was the reason why he stayed at home.
He didn't know the specific data, but one day, he was sure that the number of trucks in the county was increasing exponentially. Even BMW microtrucks weren't rare.
To his surprise, the Commercial Bank actually introduced a loan policy for excavators, bulldozers, cranes, road rollers, and other construction machinery. This was the first in the country!
For a time, the domestic sales of construction machinery soared. From mechanical engineering factories to real estate companies, they almost treated the Commercial Bank like a boss!
Old Grandma probably couldn't bear to see him idle, so she assigned him the task of herding geese. As long as he had time, he would herd the big white geese on the river slope. He also held a book in his hand. In fact, it was just for show, and he hadn't turned a page.
He sat cross-legged on the riverside, biting the foxtail grass in his mouth. Occasionally, he would look at the old geese and the dog fighting.
If it weren't for the cold weather, he would have jumped into the river.
When he was tired of sitting, he lay on his back on the ground, pressing on the green sawtooth grass and chrysanthemum. His nose was filled with a fresh smell. The blue sky suddenly disappeared and was replaced by a smiling face.
"Erhe, are you herding the geese?"
"Yes." Li He quickly sat up and said with a smile, "What are you doing?"
He didn't expect it to be Chu Xiuhong.
Chu Xiuhong raised the basket in her hand to Li He. "Look, I dug out shepherd's purse. I'll make dumplings tonight."
"It's pretty good. The shepherd's purse is very fragrant. It's delicious." Li He felt that he should also dig some so that his grandmother could make some dumplings.
Shepherd's purse filling, just thinking about it made him salivate.
Even though he swallowed, his saliva still came out.
"Erhe?" Chu Xiuhong looked at Li He's eyes, then lowered her head to look at her chest. She quickly buttoned up a button, blushing. "You want to eat it? Then don't rush the geese home. I'll bring you some later. "
"No need." Li He wiped his mouth with his sleeve in embarrassment, then said, "I'll dig it myself later. Let me make the milk buns."
"You want to dig it yourself? Then this is for you. "She wanted to give the basket to Li He.
"No need. There's a lot here." Li He refused her kindness.
"It's a lot. I dug for 15 minutes and there's so much. It's just that you don't have this, so it's definitely not easy to dig. "She waved the small shovel in her hand.
"It's okay. You can go back first. My milk definitely doesn't have any fermented noodles. It's useless to take it back now. It'll wilt. "Li He still refused very bluntly. He was determined not to have any relations with this woman.
The kind of people he hated from the bottom of his heart in this life were those who had ambiguous relationships with other people's wives. Although Chu Xiuhong was divorced now, her background was still unclear. As long as there was a 10% chance that they would get back together, even if she was still his wife!
This had nothing to do with He Manjun's character!
He had to ensure that his character was good!
Although he had let down Zhao Di, Fu Xia, and many others, he firmly believed that his character was not bad.
"Oh." Chu Xiuhong was silent for a moment before saying, "Thank you for helping me that day."
"It's no big deal." Li He waved his hand indifferently and asked, "Are you two really going to get a divorce?"
"He Manjun isn't a bad person, but he's not right in the head. When he goes crazy, no one can stand it, so there's definitely no way to get over it. We didn't get a marriage certificate when we got married, and we just had a banquet. So now that we're disbanding, we can save a lot of formalities. "
"That's pretty good." Li He didn't know how to rate him, so he could only say, "There are many good men. You're still young, so you can take your time to find one."
"I will." Chu Xiuhong continued, "My brother said that you're a good person and quite responsible. He said that he was giving you face that day. Otherwise, no one else would have been able to do it."
"Then thank him for me." Li He had to be careful not to let anyone pass by while talking to her. Otherwise, it would be hard to explain a man and a woman snuggling in the grass and rye alone.
At the thought of this, he didn't sit anymore. He stood up, patted the grass off his butt, and pretended to chase away an old goose that was running around. Only then did he keep a distance from Chu Xiuhong.
The two of them chatted casually for a while. When they saw people coming from under the dam, Chu Xiuhong took the basket and left.
It was Old Grandma. She had sharp eyes and asked, "Is that the girl from the Chu family?"
Li He nodded. "Yes."
Old Grandma asked warily, "What did she say to you?"
Li He shook his head. "She's digging shepherd's purse. She's just passing by."
"Don't bother with her." Old Grandma took the bamboo pole from Li He and said, "Go home and eat first. It's heating up in the pot."
"Okay. The slope here is steep. Walk slowly."
Li He went home and ate first.
After eating, Old Grandma happened to come back. He went to the goose coop to help her close the geese before telling her that he would leave the next day.
Old Grandma said in surprise, "Why didn't you say so earlier? I could have prepared some bacon for you."
"There's no need. It was a last-minute decision." Li He wanted to send the old couple to Hong Kong to be with Li Zhaokun several times, but the old couple rejected him so decisively that he couldn't do anything about it.
He chatted with the old couple for a while before going home.
The next morning, he packed up his luggage, locked the door, and stuffed the key into the doorframe. He took one last look at his home before sighing and starting the van to head to the county.
When he arrived at the county, he had lunch at Li Long's place. Then, he brought Da Zhuang to the provincial capital.
"Drive slowly."
Li He smiled and said a few words to Da Zhuang. Then, he entered the airport, got his boarding pass, and boarded the plane.
Above the thick clouds, they headed north.
It was Sunday. Li Lan was in tears as He Fang punished him to stand at the door. Li Yi was licking strawberries and giggling at the side.
"Did you miss Daddy?" Li He picked up his daughter as soon as he put down his luggage.
"Yes," Li Yi answered briskly.
"Where?" Li He was encouraged.
"Here." Li Yi pointed to her heart and didn't forget to lick a strawberry.
"Eat it. Daddy will get more for you." Li He was heartbroken. His daughter couldn't even bear to eat a strawberry! Second Brother Li was the richest man in the world!
"Mommy won't allow it," Li Yi said, feeling wronged.
"I have the final say. We can have as much as we want …" Li He said proudly.
He Fang pointed at the strawberry stem in the basin and said, "Look at how much she has eaten. Don't worry about her stomach. Give her as much as you want."
"My dear, this should be half a catty, right?" Li He looked at the strawberry stem and was speechless. He put her down and asked, "Daughter, are you a pig?"
"I'm a sheep!" Li Yi didn't forget to correct him.
"What's wrong?" Li He patted his son's head.
He Fang said angrily, "Ask your son!"
Li He smiled and said, "Fine, he must have done something wrong again."
He was all too familiar with this routine. If his son performed well, He Fang would proudly express how 'my' son did so and so, but if he did poorly, it would immediately become 'your' son did so and so, and it was all your fault.
"Second Brother Li, tell me who he inherited it from." He Fang handed a test paper to Li He angrily.
"45 points?" Li He frowned. "Son, this is too much. Your father would never get such a result even if he took the test with his eyes closed!"
Who did this kid take after! This was!
"Your son doesn't even know three plus five. Why don't you discipline him?" He Fang was really angry. She and her husband didn't dare to say that their intelligence was invincible, but it shouldn't be this touching!
"He's only a first grader. There's no need to be so anxious." Li He then patted Li Lan's shoulder seriously. "Daddy is busy with work. Don't make me go to school to see the teacher."
He then went to take a shower.
