Chapter Forty-Eight: Discussing the Hiring of People

Li Zhu kept weaving the bamboo screen while watching his wife and daughter funny, and his heart was full of joy. Although there is no place to take a bath on this hot day, www.biquge.info mood is not very good, but at this time, the wife and daughter will dispel this mood.

When Shen Shi, Brother Li Hai woke up, and Li Zhu took them to the well in the courtyard to wash their faces, and then took them to the uncle's house. The uncle had just woken up, and when he saw Li Zhu coming, he poured a glass of water for Li Zhu, and woke up Aunt Sun to help take care of Li Hai's brother. Dinner was also eaten at the uncle's house, and he went home to the Deng family as usual. After eating, Li Zhu and Li Hai went home together, and as soon as they entered the courtyard of the Li family, they saw the eldest brother Li Yu weaving a bamboo screen in the courtyard.

Li Zhu greeted: "Big brother, weave the bamboo screen, do you want to take a hand?" Where are you going to put this screen? As he spoke, he asked Brother Li Hai to go back to the room and walked to Li Yu's side to help. When Li Yu heard this, he smiled and said, "How do I know where you want to put it?" This is your home. Li Zhu was surprised when he heard this: "This? Li Yu said: "Your sister-in-law came back and said that she saw people in your family making up this thing, and you taught me before." I've had dinner and watched the sky, so I've already gone to your house to get it and make it up. Your daughter-in-law is in confinement, so you can't let her get tired. After hearing this, Li Zhu thanked gratefully: "Thank you, big brother, I didn't plan to make Min'er tired, I just planned to make it up myself." ”

Li Yu continued: "You don't know when you get it alone." Your house is full of things, how are you going to take a shower now? Li Zhu said embarrassedly: "I want to weave this bamboo screen, cover it in the kitchen, and wash it." Li Yu nodded and said, "That's it, if it hasn't been made up in the past few days, you can come to me to wash." Min'er just happened to be confined, so there was no need for trouble. When the bamboo screen is finished, Min'er is just out of confinement. Then you can install it in your kitchen for easy use. Li Zhu listened to this reasoning, then nodded and said, "Big brother, I have always washed cold water, so you don't need to boil water for me." When Li Yu heard this, he was happy and said with a smile: "Your eldest brother and I also take cold water, and I really don't plan to prepare hot water for you." It's not a, it's not so reasonable. Li Zhu smiled and nodded.

When it was dark, I saw Li Tian and his brothers coming back with grass and firewood. Li Tian said to Li Zhu: "Third uncle, the grass in Li Qiunu's hand is for your family, and we plan to give it to our family for one day and give it to your home one day, do you like it?" Li Zhuyi shook his head when he heard this and said, "No, how can I be embarrassed to let you work so hard." Li Tian was stubborn, so he notified him and asked Li Qiu Nu to help feed the cows, sheep and chickens, and then carried Chai He into his kitchen.

Li Zhu looked at it gratefully, turned around and asked, "Big brother, didn't you tell me before that your family was going to hold the piglet, why hasn't there been any movement?" Li Yu replied while making it up: "I asked Old Man Yu to help hold the two heads, Uncle Zhang held the two heads, and if I wanted a mother, I entrusted Uncle Zhang's family." It is not that the wind and rain come, but that it will take four or five days. After hearing this, Li Zhu nodded and said: "Big brother, our family is many but small, and we don't need so much firewood, don't let Li Tian pick it up for me the next day, your family will also prepare firewood for the winter." After a few weeks, when everyone started to prepare for the storage of firewood, it was difficult to pick it up. Li Yu nodded and said, "It's okay, our family has a lot of labor, and a few boys can help with the work." Now my dad is with me, and my dad is also helping with the work. You also know that Daddy has not stopped his hands and feet, and when he comes back from the field, he will bring back bundles of firewood. Of course, I let him keep it at home, and he ate it at my house, and the firewood he picked up by my father was stored for the winter. Maybe you can also give some of your home. Li Zhu nodded, knowing that his father and eldest brother would live a good life, and he would no longer discuss this aspect. Li Zhu said: "Big brother, I bought hundreds of chickens a while ago, and they were all raised in the backyard of my uncle's house, and now we want to build a big chicken pen." Uncle is old and can't stand too tired, I want to ask one or two people to take a hand, so that I don't have to be tired of Uncle quickly. ”

"The family you just divided, everyone in the family is sick and injured, how can there be so much money, it is your uncle who asks for this matter, your uncle wants him to pay this money. Let's not bother your uncle, when your eldest brother's land is good and after planting things, I will go over with your eldest brother and Li Tian to busy you for two days, and it's almost over. Suddenly, Old Man Li's voice came from behind Li Zhu. Li Zhu was startled, turned around and saw Old Man Li, and shouted weakly: "Dad." Old Man Li nodded, held a small wooden pier in his hand, sat down to help weave the bamboo screen, and then said to Li Zhu: "You can't go out if your face is swollen like this now, you just wait a few days, and when your eldest brother and father are done, I will go over to give you a hand." It's not a thing, it's just a matter of inserting bamboo pieces. Alright, that's it. Li Zhu looked at his father and looked at his eldest brother, obviously Li Yu agreed with Old Man Li's statement, so he nodded.

Old Man Li looked at Li Zhu and said: "Zhu'er, when your mother sold you, don't blame her, there is a reason why she has always disliked it, and this reason is none of your business, but your mother has a hurdle in her heart, a thorn, and she is pressing." Back then, I thought she would be crazy, but she didn't have to thank you, you have a hard time, and she is at ease. She loves Li Dao because Dao'er is like her. Alas. Li Zhu was surprised when she heard it, why didn't her mother go crazy to thank herself, she was her own son, and she was at ease if she didn't have a good time. What the hell is going on? He opened his mouth, and saw that Old Man Li didn't want to say deeply, so he didn't ask, thinking that his mother and his second brother went to a neighboring town, and there would be an opportunity to ask his father in the future. Old Man Li looked at Li Zhudao: "Zhu'er, your mother didn't let you continue to study back then, don't blame her, my father has a little silver tael on hand now, and it's okay if you want to continue studying." Li Zhuyi was startled when he heard this, shook his head and said, "Dad, no need." The silver you have on hand is the family's emergency money, and you can't use it casually. Isn't it a bit ridiculous that I'm the age and the father of a few children, sitting with a group of five, six or seven-year-olds? When Old Man Li heard this, his face shook for a moment, and he stopped talking.

Li Yu hurriedly said: "Dad, don't worry about the affairs of our two brothers, my family plans to hold four little pigs." The families also asked the uncle to raise some chickens, and when the grain in our field comes out in the coming year, our life will get better and better. Old Man Li nodded after hearing this, and didn't say anything more. Li Shi came out with a small bucket and said, "What are you guys talking about so happily, come and drink saliva to quench your thirst." Li Qiunu took three bowls out, handed a cup to Mr. Li and Li Zhu respectively, he held Li Yu's cup, and after Li poured water, he took a sip of it, and then handed it to Li Yu, Li said happily: "Oh, you kid." Old man Li smiled when he saw Li Qiunu's movements.
