Chapter 617: Worried, Shrinking
On the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, Li Shenyuan personally went to the provincial capital to pick up people.
When the train arrived at the station, it was noon, and Li Shenyuan found the carriage recorded on the train ticket at the beginning, and saw the three people who were crowding out of the carriage at a glance.
"Big uncle, Uncle Bai, Big Brother Bai. ”
"It's Shen Yuan, why are you here? Ming'er is your engagement banquet, why are you still coming to pick us up?" Bai Yiming said with a smile.
Li Shenyuan took the package in his and Li Zetian's hands, led them to walk outside the train station, and said: "The engagement banquet has basically been arranged, and there are many people in the Zhouzhou family, so this thing can be prepared in one day; I basically couldn't intervene there, and I didn't feel comfortable asking someone to pick you up, so I came in person. ”
Bai Yiming nodded clearly, but he was curious, "How big is the Shenzhou family?"
"It's very big, hundreds of people in the entire Li clan live in Lijiabao. ”
Bai Yiming was startled, and forcefully suppressed the look of shock on his face, generally such a big family was either a gentry or a nobleman in ancient times, and it seems that the Li family here was a gentry that could not be underestimated in the past.
Li Zetian's brows kept frowning, and he didn't speak when he left the train station.
Bai Xiong talked to Li Shenyuan and asked some about Li Shenzhou's hometown.
Li Shenyuan rented a car in the county seat and went back to Lijiabao; no, when he was out of the city, he met Li Mingshan, who had come to buy something.
"Uncle Naruyama. ”
"Yo, it's Shen Yuan! I'm back so soon. Li Mingshan pulled the ox cart, smiled, and glanced at the three people next to him, "Don't introduce me?"
Li Shenyuan jumped out of the rented ox cart, the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, and a light smile appeared on the corners of his mouth, "Well, Uncle Mingshan, this is the captain of our village, surnamed Bai, Bai Yiming, who took good care of me and Shen Zhou at the beginning; ”
"Hello, I heard Shen Yuan say early in the morning that he was going to the county seat to pick up the three of you; I am Shen Zhou's cousin, Li Mingshan, you can just call me Mingshan. Thank you for taking care of Shen Zhou in previous years, Zhou Zhou's child is also miserable, he was taken away at a young age and is still outside, and it was not easy to find it back. When I got home, let my fourth uncle thank a few of them. Li Mingshan smiled and introduced himself frankly and generously.
Bai Yiming looked at him in surprise, and then turned his gaze to Li Shenyuan.
"Uncle Bai, Uncle Bai, Brother Bai, this is indeed Shen Zhou's cousin, and the things he came to buy now should be used tomorrow. Li Shenyuan helped.
Li Zetian's mouth moved, but he didn't step forward.
Bai Yiming saw that it was going to be bad, and hurriedly got off the ox cart and stepped forward and said enthusiastically: "Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, back then, I just watched Shen Yuan and Shen Zhou have a hard time, and occasionally stretched out my hand, I can't afford to thank you." ”
"Yes, since we met, let's go back together!" Li Mingshan looked at Bai Yiming's gaze and softened a little, but he was not so enthusiastic about Li Zetian;
"Naturally. Li Shenyuan turned around and asked Bai Yiming to get on the ox cart, and asked the owner of the ox cart to follow Li Mingshan's ox cart and walk on the dirt avenue together.
Bai Yiming glanced at Li Zetian, couldn't help but shake his head silently, sighed secretly, raised his hand and patted Shen Yuan's arm, "Shen Yuan, you go to the front to help, let's rest here for a while." ”
Li Shenyuan looked back, there were doubts in his heart, but he saw Bai Yiming's sincere eyes, and he was a little confused for a while, "Uncle Mingshan is experienced in driving ox carts, and he can't get calories." ”
"No, we don't need you to be here. Bai Yiming pushed him, looked up and said to the person driving the ox cart: "This big brother, please stop and let this kid go down." ”
"Done. The oxcart was driven by a middle-aged man, who looked a little older than Bai Yiming; after listening to Bai Yiming's words, he naturally nodded and stopped.
Li Shenyuan was full of doubts and refused again, and got out of the car; watching the ox cart go again, the doubts in his eyes were even worse. Quickly caught up with Li Mingshan's ox cart, "Uncle Mingshan, let's be together." ”
"Don't call you Uncle Xi from behind, why are you here?" Li Mingshan looked at him puzzled.
"Uncle Bai asked me to help you, I'm afraid that you have too many things and there will be a breakdown on the road for a while. Li Shenyuan explained while paying attention to the handlebar behind him.
Li Mingshan glanced back at the people in the carriage and nodded, "Then hurry up!"
"Alas. Li Shenyuan jumped on the ox cart and sat in the vacant seat next to Li Mingshan, occasionally swapping with Li Mingshan to drive the ox cart.
On the two ox carts in the back, Bai Yiming saw Li Shenyuan get into the ox cart in front, so he turned around and looked at Li Zetian beside him, and there was a fire in his heart.
"Boss Li, what do you think?"
"How do you think about it?" Li Zetian turned his head to look at him, pretending to be stupid.
Bai Yiming hated iron and steel, "Tell me about you, you're here, why are you putting on a face? That's Shen Zhou's cousin, people are talking to us, you can't deal with it with a pleasant face, what are you doing with a stinky face?"
Bai Xiong consciously moved to the side, the elder said this kind of thing, he didn't want to interject, just listen to it on the side.
Li Zetian listened to his words, a little embarrassed, but he couldn't resist the injustice in his heart, "I'm just worried that Shen Yuan will suffer losses in the future, Captain Bai, you can tell me that Shen Yuan is more productive now! After marrying Li Shenzhou's girl, I will not be allowed to go to Li Shenzhou's relatives in the future." Moreover, Shen Yuan has no parents, and I am his eldest uncle after all, what if the Li family takes Shen Yuan as a son-in-law in the future?"
The door-to-door son-in-law is not easy to do, and it depends on the woman's face; not only that, but the child born cannot follow the man's surname.
"Why do you think that?"
"Shen Yuan hasn't been in the village since he was ten years old, and he has always been taken care of by people from Li Shenzhou's side; the people of Li Shenzhou's family are powerful and powerful, I'm afraid! That kid from Shen Yuan has no foundation, and if Li Shenzhou's relatives do something, Shen Yuan will not have a helper. Moreover, seeing that Shen Yuan attaches so much importance to Li Shenzhou, he will not be able to obey Li Shenzhou's words in the future? That is the child of our old Li family. ”
Bai Yiming smiled angrily, "I said Boss Li, after listening to it for a long time, I think that you are looking at Shen Yuan's life now, and I am afraid that the relatives over there will win him over and prevent him from being filial to your Li family!"
He hadn't arrived at Shen Zhou's house yet, but if he had arrived at Shen Zhou's house, he would let those people in his family see what had happened;
