Chapter Seventy-Eight: To the Town
Li Yu shouted angrily at Li Zhu: "Zhu, why do you always buy such useless things, what's the matter with this bird?" Is there anything wrong with this bird? Li Zhu said embarrassedly: "These are five birds, one tail is more beautiful, you have to be careful with that tail, it is poisonous." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info This bird pecks, be careful when you feed it. ”
Li Yu said to Li Zhu: "Zhu, your family has just been divided, and the family wants to make silver everywhere, and you don't care about the flowers in your heart, and you won't be defeated this day." Min'er doesn't talk about you, but you can't live like this. We peasant families, don't talk about the pomp, we just have something to eat with peace of mind. What I hope for is that the children can go to school, be literate, and it is best to come back after taking the test, which is a lifelong thought. You are a sheep and a bird, this is not something that a serious person raises for a living. If you want to raise it, you should be like me and come back with a few pigs. Tell me, is the whole yard you bought enough for pig money? Isn't the whole yard worth as much as a pig? Now that you are in charge of your own house, you should have your own success in your heart. Otherwise, it doesn't matter what other people do to your family, you yourself will be defeated. ”
Li Zhu was scolded speechless and wanted to argue, but when he thought of his eldest brother's temper and thought that his eldest brother really cared about him, he put out the fire and let Li Yu scold, and Li Zhu stood aside obediently.
Li Yu saw Li Zhu standing aside with his head bowed, he couldn't bear it, sighed, and said, "Alas, tell me how to get things at home, I'll show you." ”
Li Zhu happily responded after hearing this.
Li Zhu explained all the things that Li Yu did, which were all things that he often did on weekdays, that is, feeding the animals and cleaning up the manure, and Li Yu wrote them all down after listening to them.
Because he didn't know the specific day when Li Dao went home, Li Zhu was afraid that he was still busy with the bird circle before the second brother came back, and told the eldest brother Li Yu that he wanted to do the bird circle with his uncle Li Hongshen. Li Zhule said: "Big brother, I won't be polite to you this time, and if your family needs such a need in the future, just say it." Li Yu nodded happily after hearing this.
On the second day, Li Zhu and Li Yu both went to Li Hongshen's house to help make a bird pen, Li Zhu and Li Yu tied the bamboo piece erected by the original east fence to a high place, and then tied it horizontally one after the other, this time it was one person high, and Li Hongshen put the board that had been split horizontally and put it into the ground, so as not to sweep the bird's tail and sweep people.
Because there are only five birds, there is no need for a large place. Li Zhu was near the east side of the original acre, enclosing it along the back of the water source. Circle an oval, then two feet away, and then circle the chicken pen. This separates the two circles. Because it is along the river circle, the less the circle is on one side, and the action is faster.
Li Zhu was afraid that the birds would fly away, so he laid down ten pillars in the bird circle and set up a grass hut on the bird circle. The roof of the straw shed is just connected to the braided bamboo chips, and at first glance, it becomes a large cage.
Li Hongshen looked at it and boasted: "Although this kid is stupid, he is still clever in doing things. Li Yu laughed, and Li Zhu touched his nose embarrassedly. Li Yu said to Li Hongshen: "Uncle, you will be with you for a while, and you have to teach him to live." What he bought since the separation, alas. Big land, small chickens, it's really not acceptable to ordinary people, so Min'er has a good temper. Li Hongshen nodded in response, and Li Zhuying said: "My daughter-in-law is good!" ”
Li Hongshen and the three of them spent more than five days setting up the bird pen, and Li Zhu saw that everything was ready before going to Li Lizheng's house to pay the money and lead the five birds back. Now that it was winter, the birds had lost their tails, and Li Zhu led the five birds home by himself.
After the birds were settled, Li Hongshen and Li Zhu's family put the matter of temporary residence in the town on the agenda.
Li Hongshen had asked the old man Yu to report a letter to Li Quan and Li Mu before, but he was afraid that when Li Zhu's family went to the town, the two sons would be in a hurry and embarrassed.
Li Hongshen and his wife went to the town for the New Year, and they had nothing to pack. But considering that she would not come back until the Lantern Festival, Aunt Sun still packed two or three sets of clothes, packed up the hairpins and silver, and embroidered shoes for her son and grandson.
After preparing for two or three days, although there was nothing, there were many people and the cattle were still small, Li Zhu put on the cattle and sheep, and let the cattle and sheep pull them to the town. Li Hongshen laughed at Li Zhudao for this: "The messy things that your child raised are also useful. Because no one has ever pulled a cart with sheep, Li Zhu's appearance is strange, and Li Zhu's family and Li Hong went on the road when they were in the middle of the day, so as not to touch acquaintances and look embarrassed. The big sheep wanted to help pull the cart, Li Zhu was not worried about leaving only the little sheep at home, thinking that he could reduce the work of the eldest brother, so he hugged the sheep into the car. Li Hongshen smiled and said: "You have even brought sheep with you." Li Zhu also caught a few larger chickens in the chicken pen and put them in the car, planning to go up to the town to give them to Li Quan and Li Mu.
When catching chickens, Li Zhu's family had some small disputes with the uncle's family, and in the end, Li Zhu's family won slightly. Li Hongshen and Aunt Sun saw that they couldn't stop the two couples, so they had to say: "Take it, and then give you the power and money to you." Deng Shi hurriedly shook his head and said: "Uncle, if you say this, you will be divided, you really have to count the money, do you have to count the money for food and accommodation with Brother Quan and Brother Mu's house?" Aunt Sun was busy when she heard this, Li Hong thought about it deeply, and saw that she couldn't persuade Deng and Li Zhu, so she took the hand of Aunt Sun, who still wanted to persuade again, and said to Li Zhu: "Bring it, you can bring some for Deng Juren and Master Mu." This chicken grows well, is small, and can only be eaten if it is raised, and it is still okay to give it to your own family. Aunt Sun didn't say anything more when she heard Li Hongshen say this. She knew that Li Hongshen would not lose Li Zhu, and Li Zhu's family was a distressing child.
Li Zhusheng, the first time he caught the car, he arrived at Li Quan and Li Mu's place at the same time.
Li Sibin looked around the street early in the morning, saw the cattle and sheep carts from afar, and waved his hand. Li Quan and Li Mu both came over to help carry things. Li Quan and Li Mu were very excited about the return of their father and mother and the arrival of Li Zhu's family. Li Quan patted Li Zhu on the shoulder and asked, "Brother Mu and I have left you a vacant room, tell me where do you plan to live?" No matter who you choose, you will give me a clear reason, otherwise you will be beaten. Li Zhu said while untying the rope: "Our family lives in Brother Mu's house, the uncle and the aunt are in your yard, your family has the aunt to help cook, our family lives in Brother Mu's place, and we can also help cook." After Li Quan heard this, he slapped Li Zhu with all his strength and said, "Good boy, what do you have in mind to come to my house, you want my brothers to discord." Don't you know that as long as my mother is at home, we both eat together? ”
After hearing this, Li Zhu stopped what he was doing, looked at Li Quan with envy, and said embarrassedly: "Brother Quan, I don't mean anything else, I really don't know." Li Quan looked at Li Zhu's cautious appearance and said with a smile: "Just tease you, we can see your thoughts more thoroughly than yourself." After hearing this, Li Zhu smiled and continued to work. Li Quan then asked: "This is not a reason, let's talk quickly, where to live." ”
Li Mu took his mouth and said, "Brother, everyone said that they live in my house, why do you ask so much." No matter what the reason is, it is said that going to my house is going to my house. Li Quan said unhappily when he heard it: "Yo, you haven't heard of the orderliness of the young and the old," Li Mu snorted when he heard it: "I still bully the small with the big, Zhu, you quickly explain it to your brother Quan, you should let him extinguish this idea." ”
Li Zhu looked at Li Quan and said, "Brother Quan, our family will go to Brother Mu's house to live, anyway, it's close, just a few steps." Li Quan saw that Li Zhu had made up his mind, so he had to help move things.
