Zhao Si, who was knocked to the ground by Li Xiaogang, when he heard that the person who beat him, it was the big boss he was thinking about and looking forward to day and night, and his heart immediately sank, and people also panicked. I just felt as if the sky was about to fall at this moment. Trembling, he got up from the ground, drove the villagers away from Li Xiaogang's side, 'released' Li Xiaogang, and inadvertently did Li Xiaogang a big favor.

Li Xiaogang tidied up the clothes that were a little messy by the villagers pushing around, looked at Zhao Si coldly, and said, "What, the lesson just now is not enough?" ”

Zhao Si hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, no!" Just now I didn't know Taishan, I offended you, and I ask for your forgiveness! Li Xiaogang snorted and did not answer.

Zhao Si hurriedly said again: "This big boss, I see that you are also tired, why don't you go to our house for a light meal, I will let my daughter-in-law prepare a few dishes, and I will have a few drinks with you!" ”

Li Xiaogang sneered a few times and said, "No need, I'm here to collect grain, not to drink." You'd better save it. ”

Zhao Si was a little stubborn, and said with a smile: "You want to buy grain?" It's a coincidence, I have food at home, how much do you want! ”

Li Xiaogang pursed his lips and said, "I'll just look at your family's grain!" You'd better keep it to yourself and eat it slowly. ”

Li Xiaogang's words immediately made Zhao Si's heart half cold, and he said loudly: "Don't ...... Don't mind! I...... I know you're mad at me, so you can beat me up, but don't stop taking our food......"

Li Xiaogang said coldly: "Do you know, I don't look down on scum like you, who specializes in bullying old people and women!" I can't wait to beat you up, and you still expect me to buy your food? You're so whimsical! ”

Hearing that Li Xiaogang really didn't plan to buy his family's grain, Zhao Si knelt down with a plop. Crying bitterly, he said: "Big boss, listen to me, my wife has been sick for almost three months, just wait to sell food and go to the hospital to see a doctor, otherwise I wouldn't be such a bastard." It's embarrassing with the village chief! ”

listened to Zhao Si's crying. Li Xiaogang turned his head and looked at the old village chief.

The old village chief sighed and nodded lightly.

For the sake of Zhao Si's filial piety, Li Xiaogang is really embarrassed by him.

said coldly: "Your name is Zhao Si, right?" ”

Zhao Si nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes." I'm Zhao Si! ”

Li Xiaogang said: "Just what you did just now, I was determined not to want your family's food!" But for your sake, you are buying food to save your mother, and I am not so ruthless. I want your food, but I still can't help but remind you a few words, treat the township kindly. Especially the old man and the woman, they are unscrupulous and unreasonable, and the person who suffers in the end must be yourself! ”

Zhao Si lowered his head in shame, his lips curled and he couldn't speak.

Li Xiaogang waved his hand and said, "You go back, I will inform you to bring the grain when the time comes!" ”

sent away Zhao Si, and sent away the onlookers. The old village chief laughed, took Li Xiaogang's hand and walked into the house, and Tian Rui's mother and daughter also followed.

As soon as he entered the house where the old village chief lived, Li Xiaogang couldn't help but feel stunned, he didn't know how to describe the home he saw. Stripped bare? Not an exaggeration at all. In the hall of Noda, there was only a table of eight immortals against the wall, and a simple bench was placed on each side, and nothing else. Seeing Li Xiaogang's expression, the old village chief smiled a little embarrassedly: "I'm sorry to make you laugh." Hehe...... I'm alone at home, and it's hard to put things in place, so it's better to be so refreshing and simple. Li Xiaogang shook his head and didn't make a sound.

The old village chief hurriedly said to Tian Rui's mother: "Ah Yun, you go to the village deli to get some meat, and then prepare a few side dishes, and Boss Li and I have a few drinks." As he spoke, he took out a handful of crumpled small bills from his pocket and handed it to Zhang Yun.

Zhang Yun pushed his money back and said, "Old village chief, what are you doing here?" Boss Li has helped our family a lot, I haven't thanked others yet, I invited this meal, you and Boss Li will wait steadfastly! ”

"How's that going to work? Rui Rui has just been admitted to university, and it is a time when you need money everywhere, so you might as well save your money for your children's education......" The old village chief shook his head and said.

Tian Rui's mother said: "That's not bad for this money!" Besides, the money Boss Li used to buy our food last time was more than enough for Rui Rui to go to college, and our mother and son invited us to this meal! ”

After speaking, he secretly gave Tian Rui a look, and Tian Rui immediately stepped forward obediently and hugged the old village chief's arm and shook it coquettishly and said: "Village chief grandpa, don't fight with my mother, you and Brother Li Xiaogang sit first, and I'll make tea for you!" ”

The old village chief smiled bitterly and said, "Okay, you mother and daughter come together to bully me, an old man!" Hehe...... Go ahead, I'm a little hungry! ”

In a string of crisp laughter, Tian Rui's mother blew out like the wind.

Li Xiaogang's heart was a little moved, such a meal may be regarded as a coarse tea and light meal for him at best, but the affection contained in it is heavy.

Just when Li Xiaogang was distracted, Tian Rui brought the tea, although it was filtered, but it was inevitable that there were many tea foams left in the tea, but there was no complete tea piece.

The old village chief took it and drank it without looking at it, obviously accustomed to this kind of tea made with tea foam.

Li Xiaogang was originally a poor peasant, so he didn't even frown, and poured the tea in the cup into his mouth.

After drinking tea, the old village chief looked at Li Xiaogang with a smile and said with a smile: "Boss Li, if you don't come again, I'm afraid I, the village chief, won't be able to stay in the village." ”

Li Xiaogang looked a little guilty and said, "I'm sorry, I was delayed this time and couldn't come back in time." The old village chief waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay, as long as you can come back." To put it mildly, in the past few days, my heart has been up and down all day long, for fear that you will come out and go back and never return. Now that you're finally back, I can finally let go of this heart of mine, hehe......"

Although the old village chief said it easily, from his words and demeanor, Li Xiaogang could see how tormented and painful he had been during this period of time.

Li Xiaogang's heart added a little respect to the old village chief, you know, he is just a village chief, whether the grain in the hands of the people can be sold or not has nothing to do with him, and the reason why he is inevitable day and night because of his own non-arrival is that he really takes the affairs of the villagers to heart.

"Boss Li, now the peasants across the country are encountering the problem of difficulty in selling grain, it seems that the grain has become worthless all of a sudden, can you sue me, what are you going to do with so much grain?" The old village chief looked at Li Xiaogang curiously and asked.

Li Xiaogang smiled slightly and said, "What, old village chief, you are ......?"

The old village chief hurriedly said, "No, don't misunderstand! I'm afraid that you won't be able to sell the grain you buy and will suffer a loss. What's more, the price you set for us is so high, not to mention the market price, even the purchase price of the government is so high, you are a good person, I am afraid that you will lose money because you want to help us......"

The simplicity of the old village chief once again moved Li Xiaogang, Li Xiaogang shook his head with a smile and said: "Old village chief, don't worry, not only will I not lose money, but I can also earn a lot!" It's just that I still have a lot of problems that I haven't been able to solve......" Li Xiaogang's brows furrowed tightly, and some doubts shot into his eyes.

The old village chief's heart tightened, and he hurriedly asked, "What's the problem, maybe I can help." ”

Li Xiaogang looked at his ravine-filled face and said: "First of all, who will collect these grains, you let me sit there and settle the accounts, I can't do it!" Secondly, after the grain is harvested, how to transport it out and where to put it? Is there enough wagons to transport them to a nearby port? These are all questions. ”

After listening to Li Xiaogang's words, the old village chief's brows couldn't help frowning and fell into contemplation.

After a while, the old village chief's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said loudly: "Although I can't think of a good way, but there is a person, he will definitely be able to come up with a good way, after eating, I will take you to find him!" ”

Looking at the old village chief's appearance of swearing that the problem had been solved, Li Xiaogang was a little curious, who could this person be in the old village chief's mouth?

Tian Rui's mother's hands and feet were very quick, and it only took a moment to prepare a table of exquisite side dishes.

Swinging it on the table, he took out another bottle of rice wine, and said to Li Xiaogang with a smile: "We don't have anything to entertain you, so let you try our best rice bar here." ”

The old village chief smiled and said: "Boss Li, you are blessed, the rice wine brewed by Ayun is a famous fragrance in these ten miles and eight villages, she is reluctant to take it out on weekdays, you must drink more today!" ”

Li Xiaogang nodded with a smile, and said to Tian Rui's mother and daughter, "You guys also come to eat together, right?" ”

Tian Rui's mother shook her head and said, "It's better for you to eat with the village chief, our mother and son are easy to deal with." ”

Li Xiaogang smiled and said: "I can't finish such a big table of dishes anyway, so it's not good to waste it then." ”

"Okay, Ah Yun, Boss Li is not an outsider, you don't have to worry about so many rules, let's eat some together!" The old village chief also persuaded.

couldn't resist the request of the two, Tian Rui's mother and daughter also sat down.

Li Xiaogang glanced at Tian Rui, who was dressed plainly, and said, "Tian Rui, you went to South China University, right?" Tian Rui nodded shyly and said, "En! ”

Li Xiaogang took out a wad of banknotes from his pocket, handed it to Tian Rui and said: "Brother, I want to congratulate you on being admitted to a good university and winning glory for your village. Let those city people see that we farmers are not dirt buns! (To be continued.) (。 ))
