When Li Jiyi heard this, he was also aggrieved in his heart, he worked hard to support himself, and he thought about doing his job well, hoping that he could bring changes to his family and life, but no one understood, only blamed himself for being ignorant. So far, he didn't want to quibble, and he didn't bother to explain, so he kept silent.

Li Wansan saw that he didn't speak, and he didn't want to look at his face, so he said helplessly: "It's useless to talk too much, and you don't want to listen." Well, the day before yesterday, I came back from the street and ran into your third uncle. He had just returned from a trip and said he was working as an overseer in the salt transport. I told him about it, or you ask him, no matter what the result is, it's also a chance, don't miss it. It's just such a thing, you think about it again. ”

Li Ji pondered for a while, and then said, "I'll take a look when I go back." ”

Li Wansan instructed again: "If you go, you can bring something for him, don't go empty-handed!"

Li Jidao: "Okay, I know. ”

At night, Li Ji couldn't sleep back and forth, and pondered his father's words back and forth, feeling that there was a reason for what happened, and there was a reason. Looking at the situation in front of him, he can't help but feel a little sad. After thinking about it, I decided to go to the third uncle's house, and I couldn't miss the opportunity as the result was. If it goes well, it can change the current bad situation. That is, if it is done, it can change the current life, and if it is not, it will not be in the way if you continue to come back to do your old job.

Thinking about it this way, Li Ji also made plans for tomorrow's actions.

When he woke up early in the morning, Li Ji didn't write a lot, and only went to the wine and meat shop in the market to buy a pot of daughter red and two catties of beef.

The shopkeeper of the wine and butcher shop asked with a smile: "Li Shusheng, what day is it today, why are you generous?"

Li Ji smiled: "Where and what day, even if it is a special day, it is not the same as usual." It's my third uncle who came back from out of town, and I specially prepared these to take a look. ”

Shopkeeper Wang joked: "Presumably it is to find someone else to do something, otherwise there is no way to give up this bloody capital!"

Li Jidao: "Don't hide it, it does mean this, but the result is not necessarily what it is." ”

Shopkeeper Wang quipped: "It's okay, it's better to see it than not to look at it." Besides, you who have wine and meat, can he leave you alone?"

Li Ji said with a smile: "Borrowing the words of the king's shopkeeper, I hope my trip will not be in vain." Then I'll go first, you get busy first, and I'll talk about it later. ”

Shopkeeper Wang said happily: "Don't worry, it's going to be fine." Come back when you're free. ”

Li Ji carried wine in one hand and beef in the other, walked out of the wine and butcher shop, and went straight to the third uncle's house.

When he entered the courtyard door of the third uncle's house and saw that he was wandering around the door, Li Ji shouted at him: "Third uncle!"

The third uncle looked over along the shouting voice and found that it was Li Jiyuan who came over, so he greeted him with a smile and said, "Oh, this is not Jicheng's child, why do you have time to come to the third uncle's house today." ”

Li Ji smiled and said, "I heard my father say that the third uncle is back, so I came to take a look." ”

The third uncle said: "Let's go, go into the house and sit down and talk slowly." Then he led Li Ji into the house together.

As soon as she entered the house, Sanniang was coming out of the house and said to her: "Jicheng is here, come into the house." ”

Li Jidao: "Sanniang has been in good health recently," he said, handed her the wine and meat, and said, "Bring something to my third uncle, and come over by the way." ”

Sanniang smiled: "Okay, okay, you kid, come here, what else do you bring!"

Li Jidao: "A little heart, it's okay." ”

Sanniang took the wine and meat, led the two of them to sit down on the kang in the room, and then made tea on the table and brought it up. Li Ji and the third uncle sat face to face, drinking tea and briefly talking about the past.

Tea is over. The third uncle asked, "Jicheng, are you still writing and selling on the street?"

Li Jidao: "I haven't changed, I'm still doing my old job." ”

The third uncle said: "What should you do in this business, is there a future?"

Li Jidao: "It's just an interest, it's a problem to support a family, so I can barely do it." ”

The third uncle said: "Your father doesn't care about you, and he doesn't want to do anything else to make a living?"

Li Jidao: "I also discussed, my father asked me to do his business a long time ago." Third uncle, you also know that I will be able to write this skill in my life, which is also my interest, but I can't do anything else, and I did it unintentionally. So in the end, I didn't go with him, I just did my own business in the market. ”

The third uncle sighed: "Yes." If you don't like it, you can't do it ”

"No, let's look for others, or ......," the third uncle wanted to say and stopped.

Li Ji didn't follow the third uncle's meaning and asked, "How is the third uncle doing?"

The third uncle replied briskly: "Like you, you still do your old job." ”

Li Jidao: "Still working as a supervisor in the salt transportation? ”

The third uncle sighed: "What can you do if you don't do it here, it's all this age." Let's eat a mouthful of food, and try to be steady. ”

At this time, Li Ji didn't say much, but only detailed his current situation, which caused the third uncle to be full of emotion.

Li Ji asked rhetorically: "I came this time, and when I learned that the third uncle had come back from other places, I came here to have a look." Then the third uncle is an overseer in the salt transportation, and I don't know if there is anything that can be done for me. If you are not afraid of hardship and tiredness, you can do it, and you can do it, and you can be stable. ”

The third uncle frowned and said, "Oh so, let me think about it." There's a job here, it's just ......."

Li Jijian asked, "Just what?" Third Uncle. ”

The third uncle said: "It's just that I said that it doesn't count, it's true that I'm in Yanyun, but there are still people up there, if you want to come, I have to ask you." You can't rush this. ”

Li Jidao: "The third uncle must help me ask, if there is a place that needs to be checked, I will definitely send it." ”

The third uncle said again: "Don't worry about this, you will listen to my arrangement when the time comes." I'm afraid I'll arrange it for you, I'm afraid you'll ...... when the time comes."

Li Ji asked anxiously: "What are you afraid of?" Third Uncle, please speak directly. ”

The third uncle said: "I will arrange for you to be a transporter, with your physique and body bones, I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it and can't do it." When the time comes, won't all these tosses be in vain?"

Li Jidao: "Then there is no other work?"

The third uncle said: "Do you want to do other jobs? I guess I'll have to give you an effort. ”

Li Jidao: "Third uncle, that's okay, the transporter will be transported, I can afford it, it just so happens that I will also exercise, let me give it a try." ”

At this time, Sanniang entered the house and said: "Jicheng, this is not a joke, and the transportation worker is not an idle job." That's really a real knife and a real gun tossed back and forth, but it's not something that can be done by exercising. It's not that Sanniang is too talkative, just your body, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on for a long time. ”

Li Jidao: "According to Sanniang's words, this transportation worker is not easy to do?"

Sanniang said: "That's not it, who doesn't know how tired the transporter is every day." Sanniang is also well-intentioned, I advise you not to go, it is better to make a living by yourself. I'm not tired, I'm still free, and no one cares, unlike that transporter, who lets people chase and urge behind you all day long, and you can't adapt to it at all. ”
