Chapter ninety-seven

Li Quan and Li Mu's faces turned red for a moment after hearing this, and Li Zhu saw the appearance of the two elder brothers, and hurriedly said: "It's okay, this is a good thing, I want to thank the two elder brothers for their reminder." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

As if he hadn't heard it, Li Hongshen slapped a piece of wood on Li Quan's buttocks, and Li Hongshen had worked for a long time and had great strength, and a piece of wood would pull Li Quan forward a few meters. Li Hongshen shouted: "Come here, both of you come here." Then he held his heart and gasped. When Li Quan and Li Mu saw Li Hongshen's appearance, they were afraid that they would frighten the old man, one was not good, and what kind of illness would be caused. The two of them obediently stood in front of Li Hongshen and were each slapped ten times. This happened in an instant, so much so that Li Zhu's family did not react.

Li Zhu saw that the two eldest brothers were pumped, and hurriedly pulled Li Hongshen and said: "Uncle, on a festive day, how can you draw Brother Quan and Brother Mu?" Li Hongshen twitched ten times, as if he had exhausted his own strength, grabbed Li Zhu with one hand, leaned on Li Zhu's shoulder, and sighed: "Zhu, our family doesn't talk to each other. The uncle's family has been a businessman since they separated from your father, and you know this status. Your second brother, eldest sister, and second sister don't look down on us, and you know that. The two brothers Quan and Mu thought that they could only be businessmen for the rest of their lives, but you came out and won the show, so that our family could see hope, and Sibin and their hope! While speaking, Li Hong couldn't help but burst into tears, and after Li Quan and Li Mu heard this, the corners of their eyes were also moist.

Li Zhu replied with an understanding face: "Uncle, I know. Life will be better. Li Hong wiped the corners of his eyes and said, "Zhu, you haven't encountered any major events, and your assertiveness is still poor." You can't be led by my sons. They are businessmen, and something is not clear. Borrowing a name is no small matter. After hearing this, you two calves must ask Zhu first, there are some things we don't know, you can ask Deng Ju's family, they are decades old, and they have vision. We must not tarnish your name. Li Quan and Li Mu nodded directly after hearing this, it was indeed the wishful thinking of the two of them in the soup kitchen, which was their own fault.

Li Hongshen saw that his two sons had repentance, and his heart was relieved, and he said: "Zhu, your family goes to your father-in-law's, invites him over for lunch, and asks him, how is the soup porridge?" We're here to prepare the table. I'll report with you later. Li Zhu nodded after hearing this. Li Quan and Li Mu immediately helped unload the things on Li Zhu's car as if they had been granted amnesty.

Li Zhu's family didn't need to be here, so they went to Deng Ju's house with a basket of eggs.

When he arrived at Deng Ju's house, Deng Caixuan stood at the door and looked around, and when he saw Li Zhu's family, he greeted him with a smile and said, "Zhu, Min, you are finally here, my father has been chattering in the house for a morning." Deng Caixuan took Binbin and said with a smile: "Does Binbin miss his uncle?" Then he shaved Hamahama's face with his beard, causing Hamahama to laugh.

Deng Shi responded: "I have just come here with Zhu, please have dinner at my uncle's house at noon today, everyone should come over." Deng Caixuan nodded and asked, "After you went to report, did you think about where to go to give porridge?" I asked Yun to prepare some steamed buns and porridge. After hearing this, Deng Shi smiled and said, "Brother, Brother Quan, they are also ready." Deng Caixuan nodded after hearing this, and said, "The cloud should be ready, let's bring it with us." I won't accompany you to report later, so I don't have to worry about others. Folks, go by yourself, and remember to give some silver to the people who do the work. ”

After hearing this, Li Zhu smiled and said, "Uncle said to go with me." Deng Caixuan thought for a while and said, "It's better for you to go alone." It's not that the uncle's identity is not good, the report is about a lot of things, if you don't want to take the official road in the future, you can go by yourself. ”

Li Zhu nodded after hearing this.

Deng Juren saw the arrival of Li Zhu's family, and said to Li Hai with a smile: "Hai'er, let's see what grandpa has prepared for you?" Deng Juren took out an inkstone, although it is only a palm, but its stone color is like an open pine color, the color is pure green, delicate and warm, green and flawless, and it is extraordinary at a glance. Deng Shi hurriedly shirked and said, "Dad, this is too valuable. How can you give it to a kid? Deng Juren glared at Deng Shi and said, "It's not for you, Hai, see if you like it or not?" Take it. ”

As soon as Li Hai saw that the inkstone was already a star, he swallowed his saliva with difficulty, took the inkstone, touched the inkstone with his small hand, and returned it to Deng Ju: "Thank you, grandpa, I like it, but I can't ask for it." Then he put his hands behind his back and hid behind Deng, his eyes looking away.

Deng Caixuan was very surprised, ordinary three-year-old children, when they see the things they like, they rush over, and they can't take them away when they hold them in their hands, but Li Hai can now distinguish them. Deng Caixuan didn't believe his father's words before, but now he really believes it, and he may be able to achieve the material of the royal forest and the door of the prime minister. When Deng Caixuan thought of this, his mood suddenly stirred and his blood became enthusiastic. Teachers educate people not to teach students with long faces.

Deng Juren nodded, "Ha, ha" said with a smile: "You hold this inkstone, it's not valuable." It was a plaything given to me by a student a few days ago, and I don't need it, it's too small. Take it. ”

Deng looked at Li Hai's appearance, his heart was sour, and he looked at the inkstone, which was the size of a palm, and his father and eldest brother really didn't need it, so he hurriedly thanked: "Dad, thank you!" Hai'er, thank you grandpa yet. When Li Hai heard this, he immediately turned around, grabbed the inkstone, and said with a smile: "Thank you, grandpa." Deng Juren nodded after looking at it. At this time, Mrs. Deng had already taken the egg basket in Li Zhu's hand. Deng Juren seemed to have just seen Li Zhu, and said with a smile: "I heard that I got the fifth place in the exam, which is good." Later, you will go to the soup kitchen yourself or ask someone to go. ”

Li Zhu said respectfully: "Our family will go with Brother Quan and Brother Mu." Deng Juren nodded, and then turned around to test Li Hai's homework in the past few days.

Li Zhu and Deng Caixuan gossiped for a while and talked about their own plans, Deng Caixuan saw that Li Zhu had made up his mind, but he felt pity and didn't say anything more.

Li Zhu's family sat for a while, and then went back to Li Quan's house to help. Deng Caixuan drove Li Zhu's family to Li Quan's house, and sent a large pot of porridge and half a frame of steamed buns.

Li Zhu and the uncle said what the eldest brother confessed, Li Hongshen felt that Deng Caixuan was right, and he also thought about whether he would embarrass Li Zhu if he accompanied Li Zhu.

Li Zhu had no choice but to go to the yamen alone to report.

The whole family thought that just by reporting to the scene, Li Zhu's new talent should not be embarrassed. After a while, Li Zhu took Xiucai's red certificate and a set of Xiucai clothes home with a black face, and the family didn't answer anything, and only showed a smile after seeing Binbin's smiling face, and didn't talk about the report.

Li Zhu and Deng left the four brothers and sisters of Li Hai at Brother Quan's house, and the two couples went to invite Master Mu, and they praised them for a while, and Master Mu also made a pot of porridge for Li Zhu. Li Zhu accepted it as a matter of course, and said with a smile, the master is half a father, and the master is half a mother, these are what should be done. It made Master Mu's family even say yes.

At the dinner table, Master Mu praised Li Zhu's goodness and said that Deng Juren was blessed. Li Zhu was praised so much that his face turned red.

Because of the need for soup soup in the afternoon, everyone hurriedly ate lunch and pulled the ox cart to give soup porridge.

Today, more than a dozen people in Fucheng who have won the show in this session have come to give porridge, and from the gate of the temple, there is a long queue of people.

Li Zhu and his gang came late, so they could only give alms in the farthest place from the temple, and even so, they would be finished in a while. Hamahama frowned as she looked at it, she found that the people who came to receive the things were very cleanly dressed, and they didn't look like they needed porridge.

When Shen Shi, Li Quan asked Li Zhu to send them home, and Li Zhu saw that there were many things, so he helped pull them back to Brother Quan's house with an ox cart.

When he arrived at the door, Li Mu went inside and took out a box of dishes. The dishes are served in a bowl one by one, and one by one they are clasped back into the bowl. Li Mudao: "Zhu, there are pork, chicken, and rabbit here, which are specially left at noon, and you can just use it for a banquet tonight." Li Zhu smiled and said, "I also plan to do the same." Everyone laughed.

At the time of the unitary, Li Zhu's family returned to Lijia Village. Li Yu's family is ready for a feast. The dish that Li Zhu brought back was just the icing on the cake.

Old Man Li greeted everyone in front of the door, and happily said to Li Zhu: "Hurry, sit down, everyone is waiting for you." Old Man Li pulled Li Zhu and introduced the people in the courtyard one by one.

Hamahama looked at it, many people didn't know each other, so they listened to their father and his father calling him one by one, these should be something to speak in the village. Uncle Zhang and Uncle Yu are here, and Dr. Zhang is also there. And their own aunt's family didn't come, and what happened last night, it was okay for their family not to come. The second uncle didn't come, and the second aunt didn't come either. These relatives will not become relatives in the future. The eldest uncle's family, the eldest uncle and the eldest aunt are all busy helping before and after, and these are sincere. The eldest mother is not there, and may have been taken away.

After the banquet, the people left the table, and the old man Li had to be tall, and said to Zhu with a smile: "I said before that I want to provide you with a study, and you can do a good job, you don't need to go to the academy, and you can take the exam before coming back." Ming'er, let's just lift people's houses and enter scholars' homes. Li Zhu poured a bowl of honey water for Old Man Li, turned around to clean up his things, and missed Old Man Li's relieved expression.

Old Man Li sat under the peach tree, and after the family had cleaned up, he said to everyone: "I and Dr. Zhang will send your mother to Daona today." Dao said that he would make monthly offerings. When everyone heard this, they all nodded, "It is right to make offerings, and it is necessary to fulfill this duty as a child."

Old Man Li paused, sighed, and said, "Alas, the share of rice is a bit big, so let's hand over my share." I can't eat that much alone anyway. After hearing this, everyone looked in anticipation and did not say anything.

Old Man Li suddenly lost his demeanor just now, as if he was suddenly aging, and said: "Rice needs two bags of rice, two catties of meat, and three seasons of cloth every month. Li Yu said angrily when he heard this: "Two bags of rice, how can my mother use so much alone." Old Man Li closed his eyes and sighed, "Send my father's share too." On weekdays, we don't need any good wine and food, just coarse tea and light rice, and live casually. It's not that there is no way, she is at home, one of that, isn't it scary? Moreover, this is not how to live. ”

Li Yu sighed after hearing this and didn't say anything more. Li Zhu nodded and didn't say anything.

Li Yu thought for a while and said to Li Zhu: "Zhu, your family has no income now, and my family will provide all the food in the past few months." Li Zhu thought for a while and said, "Big brother, your family has a kid to study next year, I'll be out for a few months, you will be out for a few months, let's take a turn, at most you will have two more months, and the meat will be in our house." Li Yu nodded after hearing this, and Li Zhu suddenly said strangely: "Big brother, I am a Xiucai, the second brother should know, why didn't you come today?" ”

After hearing this, Old Man Li's face darkened, and he said: "Your little second sister-in-law, it's not a thing, as soon as I heard that you were in Xiucai, I wanted to see it." I didn't let me come, they were all in the neighboring town. Li Zhu nodded in surprise and didn't say anything more. Li Yu continued: "Your second sister asked someone to bring a message, she just had it, and it was inconvenient to move around in the first three months. (To be continued.) )
