1983 Small Island, Starting From a Large Farmer

Chapter 421 No Way, Then I Will Find a Way in (1/2)

Chapter 421 No way, then I’ll find a way to go in

After autumn.

The sun becomes shorter, and after six o'clock, it is already very dark.

Cooked meals also cool quickly.

Chen Huiying said: "In the future, if the weather gets colder, we won't be able to eat outside."

Chen Huiying glanced at the three small houses. None of them could place the Eight Immortals table on the ground floor for everyone to eat together.

After finishing the meal, Xiaoying and Shuihua helped put away the dishes, and Zhang Lin and Zhang Yun also helped.

After the children and women left the table, Lao Li suddenly said: "Duoyu, Yaoguo, Mingsheng, I want to talk to you about something."

Everyone sat on the stone strip, Lao Li got a cigarette, and his brother-in-law Zhang Mingsheng quickly struck a match and lit it for his father-in-law.

Lao Li first said to Li Duoyu and Li Yaoguo: "Two days ago, I received a letter from your eldest brother. He said that he would take your eldest sister-in-law to the island to celebrate the New Year this year."

Li Duoyu said happily: "This is a good thing. If the eldest brother and sister-in-law come back, the Chinese New Year will be lively this year."

If he went back to celebrate the New Year, he would probably be laughed to death by the villagers. Instead of going back and suffering, it would be better to stay on Dandan Island.

"It's not you who asked me to be more careful."

"I know, she seems to be back in a few days, I will tell her."

Li Yaoguo smiled awkwardly.

"If Xiaorong comes back this year, then we brothers and sisters will be reunited. It seems I have to buy some fireworks to celebrate."

They were afraid that after learning about these things, the Li family would be impulsive and come directly to ask for an explanation.

"That's good. You'd better leave an extra room. Before the New Year, ask your parents if you want to go to Dandan Island to celebrate the New Year together."

Lao Li finally looked at the playful and smiling Lao Si: "You have become the village director, so be careful."

"Dad, my whole family is here now, and my house is built here. I may not go back during the Chinese New Year."

"OK."

Zhang Mingsheng didn't expect his father-in-law to tell him about this matter. To be honest, he really hadn't thought about this issue.

Li Duoyu smiled.

"Aren't you old and stable?"

Zhang Mingsheng scratched his head: "My house is not big and relatively simple. I can definitely build it years ago."

Li Shuihua, who was clearing away the dishes, was startled for a moment. She glanced at Zhang Mingsheng, and her brows instantly knitted together.

Zhang Mingsheng knew that they had been wronged, but he didn't know many details, and Shui Hua didn't tell him.

Lao Li stretched out his hand: "Don't think that now that you are rich and have become the village director, I won't dare to beat you."

After hearing this, Lao Li shook the ashes from his cigarette and sighed: "When will your house be built?"

In fact, he wanted to say that the person who had the guts to kidnap her was definitely a man.

Next.

His parents were somewhat accommodating. His family was quite special. He was the only boy among the five sisters.

In the past few months since he returned to his parents' home, his two daughters felt "safe" before they were willing to tell him.

After Lao Li finished speaking, he looked at his son-in-law Zhang Mingsheng and asked, "What are your plans for this year? Are you going to stay here or go back to celebrate the New Year?"

All these things were suppressed by Shuihua, and Zhang Lin and Zhang Yun were even told not to tell their grandparents or their uncle.

And they often refused to let them eat at the table, saying that people who have not inherited the family line are not qualified to serve at the table, and they often beat them both with whips.

Lao Li frowned and glanced at Lao Si: "Save it if you can. Fireworks are so expensive. Don't buy too many. You know?"

If he didn't go back, his and Shuihua's reputation in the village would definitely get worse, and they would be said to be unfilial.

When he first heard these things, Zhang Mingsheng felt really guilty, and finally understood why the somewhat heroic woman he liked at the beginning became timid and timid after marrying him.

So I lived with my parents since I was a child, and we used to celebrate the New Year together around the fire every year.

Lao Li continued: "I also asked Xiaoying to help write a letter to Xiaorong, asking her to try to go home for the New Year this year."

After living on Dandan Island for several months, he really didn’t want to go back. No matter what they said, my family just wanted to live happily.

Li Duoyu cleared his throat and became serious instantly: "Captain Li, if you have anything, please report to me."

It turned out that every time he went out to sea to fish, his mother and those aunts began to behave like monsters. They often refused to give Shui Hua and his two daughters rice, and would only give them sweet potato noodles.

I don’t know why, but the people in that corner of his hometown are obsessed with carrying on the family line, and now his third child is also a woman.

Although Zhang Mingsheng promised, thinking about his parents, they probably wouldn't dare to come to his in-laws' place.

Although I broke up with my family, during the time I came to Dandan Island, I also received several letters from my hometown.

After he returned to his parents' home, his father-in-law and mother-in-law realized how much injustice their daughter and two granddaughters had suffered in their village.

Once, I even wanted to secretly take my dick to someone else's house and sell it. Fortunately, Shui Hua discovered it and the sale failed.

But when I think about the faces of those relatives, and what they said at the beginning, if they continue to have girls, they will give them away or sell them, I feel that this place is particularly boring.

Lao Li said to the second brother Li Yaoguo:

"Xiuhua, you have to call me back to know if you know. She is doing things outside and you don't contact her. She will run away with someone else later and you won't even know."

Lao Li sighed: "That house of yours, please give me more treats. How many times have you been there since you built the house?"

Li Duoyu smiled and said:

"Master Cao, I can rest assured when doing things."

Lao Li said angrily: "Lao Cao is a good man, but he didn't build the house by himself. If your mother and I hadn't often helped you supervise the work, his two apprentices would have cut corners."

Li Duoyu thought for a while: "Well, this year I will give my second boss a big red envelope."

Lao Li glared and said, "We are not old yet, so don't call us old all day long."

"By the way, after discussing with your mother, I still plan to live in the old house, but I will live in your new house. When the time comes, you might as well change the room downstairs into a guest room, so that when your elder brother and sister-in-law come back, they will also have one. Sleep somewhere.”

"No problem. If they come back during the Chinese New Year, they will be accommodated on the first floor."

"By the way, your sister-in-law seems to be pregnant. She is older. If you have any fish maws by then, it would be better to leave a few good ones for her."

Li Duoyu was surprised: "It's been a few months."

Li Yaoguo and Zhang Mingsheng also looked surprised and happy.

"Jinchuan said in the letter that it might have been three months."

"Okay, when the time comes, if I go to Rongcheng, I will pay a visit to my eldest brother's house alone and bring some supplements with me."

Lao Li emphasized:

"My belly is not yet four months old. Don't tell anyone. Let others hear it and know if you know."

"We understand this."

Li Duoyu smiled quite happily. Tonight was probably the most talkative time for Lao Li this month. It probably had something to do with his sister-in-law being pregnant.

Li Duoyu knows very well that Lao Li has two hurdles in his life that he has never been able to overcome.

One is to cut off the mother-son relationship with the old lady and not allow his brothers to associate with him.

Although the old lady seemed to have let go in her last days, the two of them had not spoken for more than twenty years.

Another incident, the incident when his eldest brother ran away from home in anger, also became a knot in his mind.

Fortunately, the eldest brother is doing well now and is married, although the eldest daughter-in-law is married for the second time and has a child.

But they didn't dislike it at all. The only thing they were worried about was that both of them were cadres in the factory. In special circumstances like theirs, if they wanted to have another child, they had to get approval from their leaders and get a quota. .

It seems that this time, the eldest brother is lucky. The eldest sister-in-law is already three months old, so she should get a quota.

Lao Li has finally overcome these two hurdles. Since there are more and more children at home, Lao Li often plays with the children, especially doting on the two girls Zhang Lin and Zhang Yun.

During this period of time, Li Duoyu could clearly feel that his father had become more talkative and his personality was no longer so axial. The whole family is developing in a good direction.

After talking about the matter with Lao Li.

Li Duoyu returned to the hut and found that Xiaoying had just finished bathing little Tutu. The little kid was running around the house naked but refused to put on clothes.

After running up to him, he picked him up and patted his butt gently.

"You kid, you are getting more and more naughty."

After pouring the bath water, Zhou Xiaoying asked: "Did Principal Zhu come to you to ask for money?"

"Um."

Li Duoyu nodded and replied: "He wants me to take the lead in donating money to build several classrooms for the school."

Zhou Xiaoying said: "If we really build it, it's impossible to build only a few rooms. Don't be the one who takes advantage of us. Do you know?"

Li Duoyu said: "If it is not covered, you can only have classes in the open air."

Zhou Xiaoying hummed: "Open-air is open-air. Didn't we also have open-air classes when we were children? Besides, there are a lot of open-air classes in China. Tanjia Village and Shanxi Village in the next town are not the only schools in our school."

Li Duoyu came up behind Zhou Xiaoying and hugged him directly: "The main reason is that I feel bad and I'm afraid I'll tan you."

"I don't believe it."

Zhou Xiaoying rolled her eyes, then stretched out a finger: "If you really want to donate, you can't exceed this amount."

Li Duoyu was surprised: "Ten thousand?"

Zhou Xiaoying gritted her teeth and said, "It's one thousand."

Li Duoyu smiled and said: "Yingzi, isn't one thousand too little? Will it make me look stingy?"

"If one thousand is too little, then eight hundred."

"Ah, why do you shout less and less?"

Zhou Xiaoying frowned and said, "It's true that you made some money, but there are a lot of things you need to spend money on at home. I haven't bought the furniture for the new house or your toilet.

Recently, eel ponds have been dug and the sea has been reclaimed. Do you have that much money? "

"It really does."

Li Duoyu took out the bankbook directly from the box and showed it to Zhou Xiaoying.

When Zhou Xiaoying saw the balance in the passbook, her expression froze on the spot: "You have done so many projects, how come you still have so much money left."

Li Duoyu pretended to be cool on the spot and said, "Don't look at how much money your men have made this whole year. In this year, it is quite difficult to spend almost 200,000 yuan."

Zhou Xiaoying frowned and thought for a while: "Even if you have money, it can't exceed one thousand at most. If you donate too much and let them know that you are rich, they might catch you alone in the future."

"That makes sense."

Li Duoyu hugged Zhou Xiaoying again and stretched out his hand from under his clothes. Unexpectedly, he got an unexpected surprise.

"Get started, I'm so annoyed!"

Zhou Xiaoying slapped off his dog's claws, with a look of disgust on her face: "He just came here the day before yesterday."

"You are energetic and hot-tempered, but that's not enough."

"Don't say these nonsense, Xiao Tutu is still watching. If he learns from us, we will be embarrassed."

Li Duoyu looked at Xiao Tutu with disdain and said, "Go to bed quickly. I have something to talk to your mother about."

"Hmph, sleep with mom."

Zhou Xiaoying quickly pushed Li Duoyu out of the room: "You go out first. Xiao Tutu can't sleep at all if you are here."

"By the way, mother thinks you are too tired recently, so she killed a chicken for you and stewed it in the kitchen. Go and eat it yourself."

"No wonder I felt it was so fragrant when I entered the room. Don't stew chicken for me next time. It's more practical to get a few more oysters."

After eating some chicken and drinking some chicken soup, Li Duoyu sat in the kitchen picking his teeth.

About half an hour later.

Zhou Xiaoying came out of the room and started to get hot water to take a bath.

"Xiao Tutu is asleep."

Zhou Xiaoying nodded.

Li Duoyu smiled mysteriously and said, "Comrade Xiaoying, I have good news for you."

Zhou Xiaoying frowned slightly: "What good news?"

"By the way, let me ask you first, how is your English learning recently? What's your level?"

Zhou Xiaoying was stunned by Li Duoyu's question. She really didn't know what her current level was.

"I don't know what my level is."

"Can you communicate in English?"

Zhou Xiaoying said: "I should be able to speak a little, but I don't communicate very often, so I'm probably not very good."

Li Duoyu thought for a while: "How about this, I speak Mandarin, you answer in English, let's try to communicate."

Zhou Xiaoying shook her head and said: "Why did you suddenly test me in English? Is your good news related to English?"

"Hurry up, if your English level is good enough, I will tell you the good news."

Zhou Xiaoying was very reluctant, but she didn't know how to start the conversation. The first sentence she said was:

"How are you?"

"I'm fine."

After hearing this, Zhou Xiaoying was surprised: "I haven't started to translate for you yet, how do you know what this sentence means."

Li Duoyu smiled awkwardly: "I always hear you reading it, and occasionally I secretly learned one or two sentences, but I only know one or two sentences."

Zhou Xiaoying then spoke a sentence in English and then a sentence in Mandarin while talking to Li Duoyu.

The whole conversation was a bit awkward, but at least it was coherent. It was definitely not as good as those with foreign language majors, but simple daily chats should be no problem.

Li Duoyu smiled wickedly: "Then can we do that tonight?"

"No way."

"No way."

"If there is no way, then I will find a door to go in. Next, don't get too excited about what I am going to say."

Li Duoyu did not keep it a secret: "This time I went to the city for a meeting, and the leader wanted me to go to Hong Kong Island to attend a party."

Zhou Xiaoying was surprised: "Ah, you are going out again, do you want me to teach you English?"

"Don't interrupt, okay, just listen to me first."

Li Duoyu continued: "Then, I told the leader that my English is very bad, can I bring someone who can speak English with me, now you understand."

Zhou Xiaoying was stunned, she understood , but also became very nervous, frowning and said: "My English is not good, I can't be your translator."

"You think too much, how can those big people in Hong Kong communicate with us, our primary goal is to find your relatives, maybe we can find your grandma."

After hearing this, Zhou Xiaoying was so happy that her eyes were red: "You have been better to me in the past two years than the previous twenty years combined."

"So now there is a way."

"I have been in class outside all day today, and my body smells sour. I'm going to take a shower first."

"Together, I'm very good at scrubbing backs."
