Fifty-three, little aunt

The sun was so hot that the summer day was blown away by a gust of autumn wind, and the rice in the fields drooped their heads in yellow robes in a low-key and fruitful manner, and the season of harvest and toil came again. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Unlike previous years, Li Tianxue did not take the village cadres to inspect the rice fields one by one, arrange the harvesting, and arrange the time for the tractor team. This move made Zhu Changlu, who had a ghost in his heart, very confused, and he didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Li Tianxue's gourd, so he did things seriously and well.

In fact, Li Tianxue has no conspiracy at all, but he doesn't want to be in the fly camp on this acre and three points of land, since he came back from studying at the party school, the father and daughter had a deep conversation, and the daughter asked him innocently, why did some people say that his bookshop was using power for personal gain, and why did Zhu Zhengbing say that sooner or later his bookshop would be his? Li Tianxue was shocked, and carefully asked his daughter about the situation at the time, listening to his daughter finish telling the matter, Li Tianxue had a sneer on the corner of his mouth, and was completely disappointed in some people, he valued the friendship that he grew up with since childhood, and pulled it out of the situation of a cub, but he didn't expect to cultivate a white-eyed wolf, he has endured it again and again over the years, but he is seen as weak, since he wants this position so much, then give it to him!

From that day on, Li Tianxue gradually lost his mind about the affairs of the brigade, and at this time, the brother-in-law discussed with himself to contract a section of the Huai River embankment, Li Tianxue knew that this was the brother-in-law pulling himself, so he agreed, and this time was running this matter.

Li Manman's brother-in-law Zhou Yuxin is a very ordinary rural man, in fact, there is a splendid belly, his ancestors are big landowners, there are thousands of acres of fertile land, there are many shops in the county, there are groups of slaves at home, the father of the little uncle has received an old-style private school education, has been to a new school, is considered an enlightened gentleman, during the Anti-Japanese War, he donated a lot of family property, leaving only dozens of acres of sacrificial land, so after the liberation he also did a CPPCC member for a period of time, but in that chaotic era, down everything, the sister-in-law became a black five category, Even the Li family was implicated, and Li Tianxue's several opportunities to leave the countryside were lost because of this relative, although Li Tianxue didn't say anything, and respected his brother-in-law as always, Zhou Yuxin felt that he owed his brother-in-law a good future, so when he was rehabilitated, he did his best to help Li Tianxue.

Li Manman has been a little calmer since she talked to her father, and some of her childish behaviors were pretended, which made her feel a lot easier. Although the rental of the bookstore has not yet expired, Li Manman has decided to wait for August 15 to end, saving some people from blushing and saying sour things, if he hadn't promised his father not to get angry with others easily, Li Manman would have wanted to beat Zhu Zhengbing into a pig's head.

Today's weather is good, although the autumn tiger is still in full swing, but the sun is much milder than in summer, Li Manman carried a shovel, to put the water in the rice field at home, and when the field was dry, it was time to cut the rice. This was originally Lin Xiujuan's job, but she was very busy during this time, and now she has rented two stalls in the supply and marketing cooperative, expanded her business projects, not only selling snacks, but also concurrently selling children's clothing, this is Gao Runsheng's way, his wife opened a clothing store in the county, adults and children are all in business, there are some defective products to find a way, just heard Li Tianxue say that his wife set up a stall in the countryside, and reached an agreement, the countrymen don't pay attention to what style, as long as the quality is passable, those with small holes, or off the line, Lin Xiujuan embroidered a small flower to cover it, it was beautiful and cheap, so the sales were good, and the monthly income actually exceeded the money for food, which made Lin Xiujuan full of energy.

Seeing that his mother was busy every day and had to worry about the work in the field at home, Li Manman was distressed, so he took the initiative to take this job, anyway, he was not tired, wearing a straw hat, and in the morning Li Manman transferred from Beidi to Xiwan and then to Xichang, it can be said that he turned the land of the entire Lijia Village again, and then he got the land at home. In fact, Li Manman's land is not much, only about eight acres, but the distribution is relatively scattered, basically a few points of land, a few points of land distribution, the largest piece is only one and a half acres, and the bay land, most of the height is uneven, a piece of land to build a few dams, otherwise the side of the seedlings will dry up if there is no water, the low side of the water is big, the seedlings will be waterlogged.

Wiping a handful of sweat, Li Manman shook the clothes attached to his body, went to the ditch to wash himself with water, and his hot face was soaked in cold water, Li Manman shivered comfortably. I picked a cucumber from the space, took a big bite, full of fragrance, stood in the shade of the tree, fanned the wind with a straw hat, and looked at my hand distressedly, there were a few big blisters on it, and it hurt when I touched it.

Rest enough, look at the sky, it's noon again, I don't know if my mother can get home at noon today, if you can't come back, you should go to grandma's place for a meal!

"Oops, Da Hong, what are you doing here, look at this hot red head sauce face!" As soon as Li Manman entered the yard, he was pulled into his arms and looked up and down, Li Manman knew that it was his wife when he heard the voice, but he didn't expect her to come back today, and hurriedly called with a smile: "My wife, when did you come?" ”

"Where have you been this morning? It's like this! Li Tianrong looked at his niece, and asked with distress and anger, "I see that you are still carrying a shovel and digging loaches without dying, right?" ”

"No, I'm going to put water in the rice field!" Li Manman explained, shouting to the grandmother in the house, "My grandmother, is there a well to pull out the cold?" I'm thirsty! ”

"Hey, yes, come in and drink!" Grandma Li agreed, stood up and scooped a scoop of water from the tank, ready to hand it to Li Manman.

Li Tianrong snatched the water scoop, poured the water into the basin, and said to Li Manman: "Girls don't drink cold water, hot water quenches your thirst!" You wash your face first, and it won't be hot after sitting for a while! ”

"You girl, how can there be so many ways, the child is so hot, what's wrong with drinking some cold water?" The water scoop in Grandma Li's hand was taken away by her daughter, and she couldn't get off the stage a little, muttering.

"Girls are born with a weak constitution, and they are easy to get cold when they eat cold things!" The old woman patiently explained, watching Li Manman wash his face and bring her his cup, "The water in my cup is warm, just drink it in one gulp, you drink it!" ”

Li Manman took the water cup, and she was very moved, in fact, she also knew that it was not good for girls to eat too cold, but she was used to it, so she didn't care too much, and Lin Xiujuan was a careless character, and she didn't care about it. In this case, Lao Xian was the first to say it. Thinking of the situation of his family after his father passed away in his previous life, he had just graduated, his younger brother was still in high school, his mother's body collapsed all of a sudden, and he still owed so many foreign debts, if it wasn't for the help of the old woman's family, Li Manman felt that he would definitely not be able to hold on.

"Da Hong, where is your mother? How do you get off the ground? Li Tianrong watched his niece drink a large glass of water in two sips, and asked distressedly.

"My mother hasn't come back from Baitang yet, she is busy every day, this work is not heavy, I can do it myself!" Li Manman put down the cup, wiped her mouth, and explained that she heard the dissatisfaction in Lao Huan's tone and said a good word for her mother.

"Da Hong's mother is also busy every day without touching the ground, your brother, you also know that you can't do much work in the field, it's all done by Da Hong's mother!" Grandma Li said a fair word to her eldest daughter-in-law.

"What about Taotao, does he also sell things with your mother?" Li Tianrong is dissatisfied with his brother and daughter-in-law today, and it is too ruthless to let a child as old as Dahong go to the ground.

"No, Taotao is in kindergarten, Baitang Ji. He went with my mother every day, and after my mother sent him to kindergarten, he went to the supply and marketing cooperative, and then picked it up at noon and came back with my mother! I have learned a lot of things in kindergarten in the past six months, and I can count addition and subtraction within 20! Li Manman explained, with a proud tone.

"Yes, Taotao is so powerful!" Li Tianrong was happy, she knew that the niece in front of her was recognized as a little prodigy, and people often praised her in front of her, but after all, girls are human families, and boys are the followers of the old Li family, so she is even happier when her nephew has a future, and she can't help but think of her son, who is one year older than Dahong, smart is smart but he is so good that his father is still used to him, saying that the boy is promising! sighed in his heart and said to Li Manman, "Look at what vegetables you have at home, bring them, I brought the meat over, and eat it at your grandmother's place today!" And go and see where your little brother is crazy? ”

"Hey, good!" Li Manman ran into his house, picked cucumbers, tomatoes, beans, eggplant, and a pumpkin from the space, and finally picked two watermelons and put them in the basket, and brought them to his grandmother's room.

"So many dishes? It's pretty fresh! Li Tianrong took the basket and looked at the dishes, "Where did the watermelon come from?" ”

"I bought it!" Li Manman said with a smile, boasting to his wife, "I have made a lot of money this year!" ”

"Oh, it's your half-dead little bookstore!" Li Tianrong glanced at his niece, "It's really with your father, and his hands are scattered!" ”

"I'm going to find my brother! Call him to eat watermelon! Li Man grinned and ran out. Li Tianrong smiled and went to cook.
