In the courtyard, Li Rui asked, "Why don't you go home?" Li Feiyan replied, "I'm waiting to cook dinner for you." Li Rui smiled and said, "Don't be like this, my big sister. I beg you, you'd better hurry home. I'm here to help the poor, not to be a boss. You're always coming in and out of my house to serve me. In other people's eyes, they'll think I'm trying to be bureaucratic. You're not being nice to me, you're harming me. "Li Feiyan replied," But my man asked me to serve you. " Li Rui laughed, "Your man is too polite. I haven't even found a sales channel for his rockery and bonsai and he's treating me like this. I'm ashamed."
Li Feiyan replied, "Don't worry, no one will know that I'm here. Even if I walk into this alley, people will think I'm visiting my sister's house. Who would know that I'm here? " Li Rui thought it made sense and sighed, "You serve me all day and don't even have time to rest. I'm sorry." Li Feiyan pursed her lips and smiled, "You don't have to be polite with me. I'm willing to serve you …" She was a little embarrassed and didn't continue. Li Rui said, "Come, come in and drink some water."
The two chatted and drank water in the house. Seeing that it was past five, Li Feiyan stood up and said, "I'll cook for you."
Li Rui couldn't accept such a beauty's kindness. Just as he was thinking of how to refuse, a woman in the courtyard shouted, "Director Li, Director Li, I'm Huang Cuifen. Let's go to my house for dinner. The food is ready, hehe."
Li Feiyan's face sank when she heard that she was here.
Li Rui was afraid that Huang Cuifen's imagination would run wild if she saw Li Feiyan in her own house, so he rushed out of the door and stopped her in the courtyard. "Director Huang, you're too polite. There's no need for that. I'll just eat whatever I want at home." Huang Cuifen reached out and pulled his arm, "No, no. I heard that you've eaten at Secretary Wang and Director Xie's houses. You're only missing my house. How can you not go? Let's go, the food and wine are all ready. "Then she pulled him out. Li Rui saw that it was difficult to refuse such kindness, even though he knew that she did not have good intentions, he could not refuse and sighed, "Ah, okay, wait for me to go back and get some things." Huang Cuifen laughed heartily and said, "You don't have to take anything, we have everything at home." Li Rui nodded and turned to go back into the house.
In the house, Li Rui said to Li Feiyan in a low voice, "She invited me to her house for dinner. I couldn't refuse and could only go. Don't be busy and hurry home." Li Feiyan looked at him pitifully and asked, "When will you come back?" Li Rui said involuntarily, "You aren't thinking of waiting for me to come back, are you? Just go home. " Li Feiyan really couldn't bear to part with him, her beautiful eyes were filled with reluctance as she said, "Tell me first, when are you coming back?" Li Rui said, "I'll come back after dinner." Li Feiyan said, "Then I'll come back after dinner."
Li Rui was flattered and said, "What are you doing? Why are you running around in the middle of the night? "Li Feiyan said," I'm going to wash your clothes. "Li Rui said," Wash clothes? Didn't you already wash them during the day? Why are you still washing them? There's nothing to wash. "Li Feiyan said shyly," Then I'll wash your socks. "Li Rui was extremely moved and said," My socks are smelly so I won't disgust you. Hurry home and go to bed early after dinner. Don't run around outside. "Li Feiyan said," It's okay, I often come here at night to play with my sister. Don't worry about it, I'll come back after dinner. " Li Rui saw that she was not obedient, not only was he not angry, he was a little happy and nodded, "Okay, then I'll see you tonight. Don't go out first, wait for me to leave with Director Huang before you go out. "Li Feiyan nodded obediently and a sweet smile appeared on her face.
Li Rui saw that her well-behaved appearance was very cute, and he wished he could touch her sharp chin. This kind of thought did not have any obscene thoughts, but just pure love for her from the bottom of his heart. He smiled at her and quickly walked out of the room, leaving with Huang Cuifen.
This was not the first time that Li Rui came to Huang Cuifen's house, but every time he came, he would be shocked by the poverty of her family. He could not help but ask, "Big brother's asthma can't be cured? Take some time to bring him to a big hospital for a checkup. " Huang Cuifen played it down and said, "There's no need to cure it, anyway he won't die, so let's just leave it as it is. Besides, our family doesn't have that much money anyway." Li Rui saw that she was so heartless and wanted to immediately turn and leave. Suddenly, he heard coughing in the house. He thought for a while and walked in.
The north house of Huang Cuifen's house was also an old grey brick house with a total of three rooms. After entering the house, it was the central room and also the kitchen, but it was not a place to entertain guests. The villagers usually entertained guests in the bedroom. The central room was divided into two rooms, east and west, and also two bedrooms.
Huang Cuifen led Li Rui to the east room. The east room was both a living room and a bedroom, and the decoration was very simple. On the left side of the door was an old television cabinet with an old-fashioned Peony brand black and white TV. Opposite the television cabinet was a kang, which took up all the space between the east and west walls. There was a pile of bedding in the corner of the kang, and an old-fashioned wooden window on the south wall. Huang Cuifen's husband was sitting on the edge of the kang. In the space between the television cabinet and the kang, there was a table with a few simple cold dishes, a bottle of Erguotou, and a few wine glasses.
Huang Cuifen's husband was about the same age as Huang Cuifen, but because of his chronic illness, he had aged earlier. In addition to his illness, he had become a wretched and thin little old man.
Li Rui did not have a trace of disdain or disgust for him, but only pity. He pitied his fate and also sympathized with his marriage. Thinking that he was already sick and had a wife like Huang Cuifen, his life was really … Sigh, he did not know what he had done in his previous life. He walked over and took the initiative to greet him: "Big brother, I will have to trouble you tonight." When the man heard Huang Cuifen mention Li Rui's identity and importance, he grinned and said: "Don't be a stranger, you are a guest at home … Cough, cough, cough …" Li Rui said: "Big brother, you should apply for the poverty relief fund and cure your illness first."
Huang Cuifen interrupted: "The doctor has already sentenced him to death, what treatment is there for him?! Director Li, don't pay attention to him, quickly sit down. Here are some cold dishes, you eat first, I will go and make some stir-fried dishes. It will be ready soon, haha. "After saying that, she turned around and went to the living room.
Li Rui saw that the man had a simple and sad smile on his face, and his heart was filled with sympathy. He wanted to take out his wallet and give him a stack of cash so that he could go and see a doctor first. But he also understood that there were many poor people like him in this poor village, and it was impossible for him to give money to everyone. Even if he gave money, his money might not be able to cure their illness. The most important thing now was to help them get out of poverty and let them know how to earn money. When they have money, would they still need to worry about not being able to cure their illness?
He thought for a while, got up and went to the living room. He saw Huang Cuifen squatting on the floor and adding firewood to the stove. Her fat buttocks were protruding out like two big rubber balls. He thought that this woman's body was really voluptuous, no wonder Xie Sanping could collude with her. He said: "Director Huang, after the small loan application has been revised, you should follow suit and get a loan. Start a small business and earn money to treat big brother's illness."
Huang Cuifen was unhappy when she heard this and said: "Let's not talk about earning money first, I am not going to get a loan. If I get a loan, I still have to pay it back and there is also interest. Is this helping the poor or earning our hard-earned money? I am not going to get a loan, I want to wait for the free poverty relief fund to come down. " Li Rui frowned: "How can free poverty relief fund come down so easily? You will have to wait for a while." Huang Cuifen smiled: "It's okay, there will be a day when it will come down. When the time comes, based on our friendship, you have to give me more money. " Li Ruixin sneered. This woman was really greedy to the extreme, but she didn't use her brain to think. How could there be such a good thing? He patiently advised: "Your family's situation is special. Big brother's illness can't be delayed any longer, otherwise it will be a heavy burden for your family in the future …"
Huang Cuifen immediately scolded, "I, Huang Cuifen, don't know what kind of sin I have committed. How did I end up with such a sickly good-for-nothing? He can't earn money to support me, but I have to earn money to support him. What kind of f * cking world is this? I'm so f * cking unlucky … Director Li, you have to be the judge. How can there be such a pitiful person like me? Just mentioning it makes me feel wronged. I am more wronged than a little cabbage … "
Hearing this, Li Rui couldn't listen anymore and said angrily: "Director Huang, how can you say that? Husband and wife are in the same boat and should help each other. How can you say that just because Big brother is sick? "Huang Cuifen didn't know that he was angry and said:" What, am I wrong? The old men in the family are all strong and healthy. They go out to work to support the family. How can I have such a sick person? He has no future at all. All he does is cough on the kang all day. It's fine if he can't support me, but he also burdens me and makes me unable to live a good life. Humph, if I have this kind of illness, I might as well die. I won't be a burden and I won't have to suffer! "
While the two were talking, there was no movement in the East Room. Even the coughing stopped.
