One hundred and forty-five chapters
Li Quan nodded and agreed after hearing this, and Li Zhu saw that Li Quan agreed, and his own family couldn't be coquettish, so they all agreed. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Uncle Li Hongshen said again: "This should be hurried, today you will go to the town to sign with Quan and Mu, and buy the red rope back, let your daughters-in-law come back with you, let Min teach it, and we will all fight at home." ”
Li Quan nodded hurriedly after hearing this, and Li Zhu took fifty taels of silver and got into Li Quan's carriage. Uncle Li Hongshen followed him to the town, Li Hongshen was afraid that Li Quan and Li Mu would coax Li Zhu, and then the two families would have pimples, which would not be beautiful.
After Li Cuihua and the other uncles, Li Quan, and Li Zhu left, they said to the Deng family enviously: "Uncle loves Zhu, more than Brother Quan and Mu, he is dedicated to thinking about your family, no wonder Brother Quan often complains, saying that the two of them have fathers and mothers but are not biological." Ha. ”
Deng shook his head and said with satisfaction: "Yes, Zhu is a blessed one, although his mother does not hurt him, but there are so many people who hurt." Li Cuihua nodded.
Deng said to Li Cuihua: "Eldest sister, if you tie the knot and sell it, our family will also collect some money, and you should put the money from the sale yourself, don't say that you don't want money to help, you just want to cross the road with your own money." How can there be too much money. The eldest brother-in-law said that he farmed, but he didn't know what the harvest would be if he hadn't tried it, and now that your brother is growing up, he can't just eat vegetables. ”
As soon as Li Cuihua heard this, she continued: "Do you think I don't want your brother to eat well?" It's nothing if I don't have money, but now I have money and can't take it out. Alas. ”
After hearing this, Deng Shi smiled and said, "If we have anything fresh in the future, just let your brother come over and eat it." ”
Li Cuihua smiled after hearing this: "Okay, I won't be polite to your family, and you shouldn't be polite to me." I just came to help tie that knot, and I can't collect money. ”
Deng Shi thought about it, then shook his head and said, "This will wait for you to come back, and we will talk about it again." Li Cuihua had to nod helplessly.
Li Cuihua thought that there were still some red embroidered ropes at home, so she went back to her room and took them, handed them to Deng, and asked Deng to teach herself to fight first, and then teach Luo and Zhang later. Deng said: "Okay, when Li Zhu comes back after buying the red rope, let him return it." Li Cuihua pursed her lips after hearing this, but didn't say anything.
Deng taught the eldest sister to string step by step, Li Cuihua was obviously not as smart as Li Zhujia, and Deng taught three times before learning.
Li Cuihua was in Li Zhu's room, and after tying all the red threads she had brought over, she went home to cook.
Hamahama teased the monkey for a while and pulled Lehi out of the yard, Lehi looked at Hamahama strangely and asked, "What's wrong?" Hamahama said: "Call Brother Zuo over, call him to come over and make red knots, so that he can also make some money." When Deng Chi heard this, his heart ached, his face wrinkled, and he hid.
After hearing this, Deng Shi smiled and said, "You kid." Deng got up and said, "I'll go and call you Brother Zuo." You stay at home with your brother Hai, and your mother will call. With that, Deng went out.
Li Hai watched Deng go out, and said unhappily: "If there is one more person to sell the knot, won't our family have even less money?" ”
Binbin shook his head after calling and said: "Big brother, Brother Zuo will take the Xiucai exam in the future, their family is doing long-term work in our place, not only food and accommodation in the past two years, but no money, if you don't find him some money-making work, he will take the exam in the future, and he won't pay back our family." Lehi nodded and said nothing. Deng Chi became even more uncomfortable after hearing this, Binbin reassured Shang Zuo, and he remembered everything.
In the evening, before Deng returned, Li Hai let everyone drink a big bowl of goat's milk, and then washed the rice, while Deng Chi lit the fire, and the two worked together to cook rice. Lehi also put the leftover steamed buns from today's meal on top of the rice.
Binbin watched the two brothers busy, ran to the kitchen of the eldest aunt Li Cuihua's house, and said to the eldest aunt: "Auntie, my mother is not at home, can you help our family cook dinner?" Brother Hai and Brother Chi are cooking on the fire, and we can't cook the dishes. ”
After hearing this, Li Cuihua smiled and said, "You are all good children, good children." Auntie is doing it here, and when Auntie is done, I'll bring you some over. ”
Binbin looked at Li Cuihua's kitchen, saw that there were only green vegetables, and said with a smile: "Auntie, I don't want to be a rabbit, I have eggs at home, can you go to our house and get some?" Li Cuihua smiled and nodded after hearing this.
Li Cuihua followed Binbin back to the room and took six eggs, and when Binbin saw it, he smiled and said, "Auntie, you are only four of our brothers and sisters, Brother Jiachi, and your brother will do it." It's not enough for so many people. ”
Li Cuihua thought about it, took four more, and said, "Okay, auntie add some water into it, and it will be slippery and much." Hamahama didn't say anything anymore after hearing this.
After Li Cuihua returned to the kitchen, she separated the two plates and steamed eggs. And I washed more dishes.
Binbin saw that the food had fallen, and returned to the room to Li Tao and Li Bo with a smile, and said, "Brother, wait for my aunt to bring the vegetables to us." When my father and mother come back, we can eat. ”
Li Hai looked at Binbin, and said to Li Tao with a smile: "Tao, go and call Brother Tian to come over to help, boil water, let's wash and wash, and prepare some hot water for my father and mother." After Li Tao heard this, he ran to the uncle's room.
After a while, Li Yu came back with Li Tao's little hand, and as soon as Li Tian entered the kitchen, he helped boil water. Li Yu asked Li Haidao: "Your father has gone to town, what about your mother?" ”
Li Hai responded: "My mother went to call Brother Zuo over, but she hasn't come back yet." ”
Li Yu frowned and said, "I'll go over and look for it, if you're hungry, go to your uncle's house to eat something." The children all nodded.
As soon as Li Yu opened the courtyard door, he saw Deng holding a plate of cooked wild vegetables, Shang Lao holding a pot of fish soup, and Shang Zuo three large bamboos, with bamboo fragrant rice floating out.
Li Yu looked at it and asked, "This is?" ”
Deng Shi saw that it was Li Yu, and said with a smile: "Uncle, have you had dinner?" Today Shang Lao caught two big fish, Zuo'er dug some wild vegetables, I looked fresh, it was so red in the mountains, and I came back with it. ”
After hearing this, Li Yu smiled and said: "I haven't eaten yet, your child is well-behaved, and he cooks rice by himself." I came over again and asked Tian'er to help boil the water. ”
When Li Hai saw the Deng family, he hurriedly ran over and said, "Mother, Binbin asked my aunt to help cook the dishes." I'm cooking with Blaze over the fire. ”
After hearing this, Deng nodded with satisfaction, put the dishes in his hand on the table in the courtyard, and said to Li Yu: "Uncle, if you haven't eaten yet, you will eat together at our house, and let's add vegetables today." ”
Li Yu smiled after hearing this, shook his head, and said, "Your sister-in-law is done, so I won't bother you here." Li Tian: I'll take him back for dinner. ”
After hearing this, Deng smiled and said, "Thank you!" By the way, eldest brother, after dinner, let my sister-in-law come over, the knot that our family tied a few days ago is selling well, I will teach my sister-in-law, you can also sell some and earn some pocket money. ”
After hearing this, Li Yu hurriedly waved his hand and said, "You have a lot of children, this unique business must be better, and our family will not participate." Your family is having a better time, and my eldest brother is also happy. ”
Deng Shi thought for a while and said, "Big brother, our family still has to teach Auntie, Brother Quan, and Brother Mu." When you have sold it and you have received the money, you will return it to our family. When Li Yu heard this, he nodded and said, "In this, I'll call your sister-in-law over later." Deng smiled and nodded, and asked again if he was here for dinner.
Li Yu said again that he was not there, called Li Tian and left.
Deng Zhang Luo asked the children to come over to eat, looked at the kitchen half of the cooking, and watched the fire while eating, Deng smiled and said: "It's okay now, I just thought on the way, the eldest cousin and the second cousin may not have had dinner, and they are afraid that there will not be enough food." Even if they eat it, the meal is cooked, and it can be used as a supper later. ”
Shang Lao looked at Li Hai and Deng Chi nodded, helped clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and prepared to eat. Binbin went to Aunt Li Cuihua's kitchen and told Aunt Li Cuihua that her mother had brought fish back and asked her aunt to come over and eat together.
The aunt smiled, grabbed a large handful of washed vegetables and put them in the basin, pulled Binbin back to Li Zhu, and said to Deng: "Min'er, Binbin said that you are back, I washed the vegetables, you can fry it." I've steamed eggs, I'll take ten, and I'll bring them to you later." Shang Zuo took the dishes from his aunt Li Cuihua, and went back to the kitchen to wash the pot and prepare to fry it.
Deng Shi smiled and said, "Auntie, Shang Lao caught a fish, you can also come over and eat some." Li Cuihua smiled and said: "I'm not polite to you, you can clip some to me, let Gui'er and my mother eat some, I'll just drink some soup." There are a lot of people in your house tonight, and there must not be enough. ”
After hearing this, Deng put some fish in a bowl, put some soup in it, and handed it to Li Cuihua. Aunt Li Cui took it with lace, took it and went back to the kitchen.
After Shang Zuo fried the dishes, Zhang Gui came over with a large plate of eggs, and Deng Shi hurriedly took a bowl out, divided it into more than half of it, and handed it to Zhang Gui and said, "Brother Gui, you bring it over to eat." You spend your brains reading books, eat better, and be more energetic. ”
Zhang Gui smiled after hearing this: "Third uncle, no matter how hard I study, I don't have as much effort as Li Hai and Deng Chi, both of them memorize more books every day than me." My mother said, let's eat fish today, the eggs will be left in your room, and if you want to tie a red knot later, you can also eat it as a supper. Deng smiled after hearing this, went to Li Cuihua's kitchen with the egg, and said as he walked: "Let's invite my aunt to eat, why do you talk so much?" Zhang Gui saw that the Deng family was really going to his house, so he hurriedly took the egg and thanked: "Third uncle, thank you, you are busy, I will take it back by myself." ”
Deng nodded and began to work again.
At the end of the day, Li Zhu, Luo and Zhang came back in a carriage with 50 catties of red rope.
None of them had dinner, and Deng was busy eating late.
After eating, Li Zhu smiled and said to the Deng family: "Brother Mu took me to the southeast market today and found the family of the person we bought the red rope last time, and the family promised to provide us with the red rope in the future, according to the price we bought last time." After hearing this, Deng nodded with a smile and said, "That's really good." It's getting late now, and everyone is tired from running around for a day, so let's start tying red knots again tomorrow. Shang Lao and Zuo'er can sleep here, and they don't have to run around. ”
Old Man Shang nodded after hearing this. And they made an appointment for the morrow, and went back to their houses. (To be continued.) )
