Early the next morning, An Guoqiang went to Li's house with Li Fang.

It's not that he is really so willing to be a cow and a horse for the Li family, it's really that the Li family doesn't have much work, and he can finish it in five or six days by himself.

He's been working for four days, and he'll be done in a day or two.

Ninety-nine bows are gone, and I really don't miss the last trembling.

But yesterday's troubles of Aunt Wan were not useless, Xu Li Fang said something to her mother, when she ate at noon, there was no wheat bran nest on the table, but a basket of miscellaneous grain steamed buns.

In addition, there are two plates of fried greens and a small bowl of scrambled eggs.

This is already the best meal that the Li family can come up with.

An Guoqiang glanced at the scrambled eggs, but he was still reminiscing about the braised pork that his sister left for him.

Tsk, the five-finger-thick meat, fat and thin, and the soft and fragrant flesh skin, the mouth is full of oil, which is called a fragrant.

It's like the Li family, and the one who picked the rope got a bowl of scrambled eggs.

Eggs, in this era, may be a rare delicacy for ordinary people.

But for An Guoqiang, who can eat an egg every day, it is not so attractive.

Especially after eating braised pork last night, every cell in An Guoqiang's body was shouting: Eat meat, Lao Tzu wants to eat meat!

There are also multigrain steamed buns brought up by the Li family, which are stronger than yesterday's wheat bran wotou, but they are definitely not as good as white-flour steamed buns.

His mother said that she saw the little grandson of the Li family holding white-faced steamed buns all over the village.

An Guoqiang looked left and right, and sure enough, he didn't see the grandchildren of the Li family.

"Eat, Guoqiang, eat quickly. ”

Mother Li was enthusiastic on her lips, but her heart was dripping with blood: two eggs, she wasted her two eggs in vain!

It's all to blame for the old woman surnamed Wan, what kind of demon is she doing?

Isn't it just that the son-in-law works for his mother-in-law's house for two days, why is it so difficult to get to her?

The mother-in-law was so enthusiastic, An Guoqiang was not easy to sit down, took a piece of egg with chopsticks and threw it in his mouth, but found that it was not delicious at all.

Also, oil is also expensive these days, and I usually take a piece of gauze and wipe it in the pan with oil when stir-frying, and just dip it in some oil stars.

The same is true of the Li family's scrambled eggs, there is too little oil, and the eggs are stained with the rusty smell of the iron pot.

An Guoqiang chewed a few bites and swallowed it with difficulty.

He turned his head and whispered to Li Fang, "Fang'er, why don't you go to the commune to change some meat." ”

He didn't say it explicitly, but everyone present knew that he was asking Li Fang to go to the commune's black market to buy some high-priced meat.

Li Fang's expression was a little stiff, he glanced at his parents who were shining with two eyes warily, and said with a smile: "Where do we have money? Okay, it's been these two days." Guoqiang, bear with it again. ”

Anne guessed correctly, the more than 100 yuan in Li Fang's hand was "loaned" to her mother's family for 80, and less than 30 yuan was left.

If she hadn't cried and said no, it was estimated that she wouldn't even have the thirty yuan left.

The reason why Li Fang, who is careful and calculating, is willing to borrow money, firstly, she really feels sorry for her father and mother, watching them beg her with tears and snot, she really can't bear it; secondly, at that time, Li Lin and a group of people were very popular in the village, and even An Dewu didn't dare to provoke easily, Li Fang felt that his brother had a chance and wanted to make an investment in advance.

Now that Li Lin was suppressed by Annie, he couldn't raise his head at all, and Li Fang was frightened and regretted.

I don't think I should lend so much money to my mother's family.

With so much money, why don't you leave it for your children to buy something?

In the past few days, my brothers and sisters have been tired and sick, and they have spent some money on medical treatment and medicine.

Mother Li pulled Li Fang to cry poor, and asked her to borrow some more money for the family.

In the face of her mother's tears, Li Fang did not relent, and repeatedly promised that there was no penny in her hand.

was also afraid that her father and mother would borrow money from her again, so she tried her best to persuade An Guoqiang to come to the Li family to work.

Li Fang thought very well, I have already worked hard, you can't force me to take money again.

pretended to be poor for a long time, but An Guoqiang missed the bottom of a word, and Li Fang was in a hurry.

Li Fang complained about An Guoqiang in his heart, and An Guoqiang blamed Li Fang for only caring about money and not knowing that he felt sorry for him as a husband.

An Guoqiang didn't know that Li Fang lent most of the money to his mother's family, he just felt that Li Fang was holding more than 100 yuan, but he was reluctant to spend even a few cents for him.

Not to mention compared to his own mother, Li Fang is not even as good as his sister.

Alas, my mother is right, some people just say it nicely, but there is no truth at all.

An Guoqiang held his breath in his heart, stuffed some food casually, and then went to work with a hoe again.

Li Fang saw that An Guoqiang's mood was wrong, and she wanted to chase after him to explain to him.

turned out to be pulled by his father.

Finally got rid of Li's father and Li mother, who were trying to borrow money from her, Li Fang hurriedly ran towards her own land.

As soon as he ran to the ground, he heard a scream -

"Ah~~"

"What's wrong, what's going on?"

Mother Li heard the movement and also ran over.

I saw my daughter crying in a hurry, "Fang'er, what's wrong?"

Li Fang cried and said, "Mother, it's not good, Guoqiang didn't pay attention when he was working, and a hoe hit his foot, and the surface of his foot was smashed into a big hole, and blood flowed out." ”

"Oh, what's that going on?"

Mother Li came closer to see that her son-in-law was curled up on the ground with a pale face, holding his right leg with both hands and moaning uncontrollably.

And a finger-long wound on the surface of his right foot, the wound was very deep, the flesh on both sides was turned up, and blood flowed all over the ground.

"Guoqiang, why are you so careless in your work, you wait, I, I'll find someone. ”

Saying that, Mother Li ran away.

Li Fang had no owner, stayed where he was, waited, and waited for a while, but he didn't see his mother come back.

In fact, she knew in her heart that according to her mother's door, she would never pay to help An Guoqiang watch his feet.

"Yo, Guoqiang's family, what are you still doing in a daze, why don't you hurry up and help your Guoqiang to go to the health center?"

There were onlookers around, and when they saw Li Fang standing stupidly like this, they hurriedly reminded him.

"Auntie, I can't help me alone, if you help me go to my mother-in-law's house, I will say that something happened to Guoqiang. ”

Li Fang was in a hurry and didn't forget to play tricks.

"Li Fang, I can still walk on that foot. You give me a hand. "Others don't know Li Fang's thoughts, An Guoqiang still doesn't know?

In the past, he was coaxed by Li Fang's sweet words, but last night's angry scolding from Aunt Wan and Anne's words helped An Guoqiang tear off Li Fang's veil.

The current An Guoqiang, although his feet hurt badly, his mind is extremely clear.

He knew that Li Fang dragged him and didn't take him to the health center just because of one word: money!

Although this incident made him very sad, it was a fact, Li Fang was reluctant to spend money for him, even if he was injured, even if his injury was because he worked for her mother's family.

The lady was very zealous, and delivered the letter in a short time.

Mrs. Wan took her two sons, a daughter, and a grandson behind her to drive the ox cart and ran in a hurry.

"Oh, Guoqiang, you are a fool, why do you still work so hard for others?"

"Are you a hoe, or are you a hoe? Even if you are a hoe, you can't hoe your own feet?"

"And you, Li Fang, you are a dead man, Guoqiang is injured, and you don't know how to help him go to the health center?"

"Guoliang, Guofu, you two give me a little lighter, don't you see that your brother hurts like that?"

Wan Damiang's unique loud voice kept shouting, obviously scolding, but it was very kind in An Guoqiang's ears.

He even has an inexplicable sense of security: when his mother comes, everything will be fine!

Anne took a new tuft of white cotton cloth and personally tied her brother's wound, muttering in her mouth, "Sister-in-law, too, even if you can't help your brother, you have to find a way to tie the wound first, look at it, there is so much blood." ”

"Mother, I see that my brother's wound is a little deep, and I guess the health center can't handle it. If not, it is estimated that you will have to go to the provincial capital. Later, let someone go and talk to the second uncle and borrow a tractor for use. ”

"Uh-huh, I think so. Our old dean's medical skills are really good, but the conditions of our health center are too poor, and the medicine is not complete. ”

Aunt Wan nodded again and again.

"Mother, you don't have to go to the provincial capital, just bandage it in the health center. ”

An Guoqiang heard that his mother and sister did not hesitate to take him to the provincial capital to see a doctor, and his heart suddenly warmed.

This is a family, no matter what happens, I will do my best to help him and save him regardless of everything.

"You don't hurt anymore, why do you have so much nonsense!"

Wan Da Niang had a tiger face and reprimanded angrily.

An Guoqiang was very happy to be scolded, snorted, and said in a low voice, "How much does it cost to go to the provincial capital? ”

"Hmph, don't worry about it!"

Aunt Wan felt sorry for her son, scolded on her lips, but her eyes were red, "You fool, why are you so careless." It's really distressing to die. ”

Anne hurriedly said, "Brother, don't be afraid of spending money, as long as you are good, you can spend as much as you want." ”

Although Aunt Wan didn't say this, she knew from a glance at her expression that she agreed with her daughter's words very much.

There was a daughter-in-law who was unwilling to spend money on him, and then there was a mother-in-law who did everything for him, and the balance in An Guoqiang's heart involuntarily tilted to his mother-in-law.

He touched his tears and said, "Mother, we don't need your money, we have money." ”

"How can we-" Li Fang subconsciously wanted to refute, but when she looked up, she met An Guoqiang's somewhat fierce eyes.

In the second half of the sentence, she swallowed it back.

Anne found such a good opportunity so easily, where would she miss it, and hurriedly made a "peacemaker" appearance, "Fourth brother, fourth sister-in-law, you only have a few dollars in your hands." This money, my mother gave. ”

"Well, as for your two jujubes, let's keep them and buy some good things for my granddaughter. ”

Aunt Wan looked disgusted, but her hand touched An Guoqiang's face very gently, "Alas, let's go to the health center quickly, and I'll talk about other things later!"

A large group of people from the An family went to the health center, and the old dean who was "coerced" by Anne to come to Anjiabao carefully examined An Guoqiang's wound, and said: "It's too deep, it needs to be stitched, I don't have anti-inflammatory drugs here, you better go to the provincial capital." ”

"Hey, hey!" Mrs. Wan couldn't help responding.

On the other side, Anne had already borrowed the tractor, along with the driver Fang Zhuo.

Aunt Wan was old, and Anne didn't let her go.

Li Fang also wanted to go, but Aunt Wan said: "Liuni is still young, you can watch the children at home first." ”

An Guoqiang was very disappointed in Li Fang, and said lightly, "Listen to my mother, you can stay at home." Anyway, even if you go, it won't help much. ”

When Li Fang heard that this was wrong, she was a little panicked.

It's not that she really feels sorry for money, but she has no money in her hand, and she really doesn't have the confidence to say that she will take her husband to the provincial capital.

Watching the tractor suddenly go away, Li Fang had a hunch that her life would also change......
