Chapter 32: The Banquet of the Clerk (3)

"Yueji, you come in and serve the dishes, the dishes are all fried!" Tao Xiutian shouted in the kitchen.

Li Yueji hurriedly walked to the kitchen, "Old classmate, you sit, I'll help." ”

Jiangbian nodded, looking around at the village party secretary's house. A round table was set up in the hall with a tablecloth on top. The floor is clean, and the patterns on the stones of the grinding stone floor are clearly visible. There is a staircase at the back of the hall, and there are several pairs of shoes at the top of the staircase, and it seems that you have to change your shoes when you go upstairs.

Li Yueji walked into the kitchen and was about to pick up the dishes on the table.

Tao Xiutian said, "Yueji, let your dad serve the food, be careful not to burn your hands." Mom asks you something. ”

"Mom, what's the matter? I can't say that there are guests at home! Li Yueji looked at Tao Xiutian's strange expression and said impatiently.

"This kid. Mom asks you, do you know the situation by the river? Tao Xiutian asked.

"You know, what's the matter?" Li Yueji asked.

"It's good to know, you know what I mean. Jiangbian saved your life, yes, we have to thank people, and we will do our best to help him when he is in trouble in the future. But gratitude is not the same thing as affection. You know what? You are now working in the town, and the people who eat the national food are not all the way to the river. So don't get too close to him in the future. Do you understand what Mom means? Tao Xiutian said.

Li Yueji is also a very thoughtful person, so she can naturally understand what Tao Xiutian said, "Mom, you are all blind!" What do I mean to where by the river? It was he who saved my life, and I am grateful to him, and he was still my junior high school classmate, so talk to him, what is this. It's not like two sentences, it doesn't matter! ”

Tao Xiutian smiled, "Mom just gave you a wake-up call." By the way, daughter, do you have a suitable male teacher in your school? If you meet the right one, talk about it, you are not small now, if you are in the countryside, you will have a baby. You know what? ”

"Are you in a hurry to get me out? Or are you afraid that I won't be able to find my in-laws in the future? As soon as I came back, I said it, and if I did it again, I wouldn't come back on weekends. Li Yueji threatened.

"It's better not to come back, if this happens, if you come back, I won't worry about it every day?" Tao Xiutian said.

Soon, the round tables in the hall were filled with floors.

Jiang Bian hurriedly said a few polite words, "So much, how can you finish eating." ”

Li Changdong said with a smile, "You saved the only daughter of my old Li family, I can't thank you enough, but our transportation here is not convenient, so we can only make a few dishes." Let's take our time today and have more wine. Uncle Li, thank you so much! ”

Jiangbian rarely drinks alcohol, and he has no money to make a share of the happy events in the village. So the amount of alcohol was not large, and when he heard that Li Changdong was going to drink with him, his head immediately became bigger.

Li Changdong is a well-known "Li Wujin" in the village, and there is no problem with drinking rice wine from a five-catty mountain village alone. And Jiangbian estimates that he is the usual "two or two pours", and he has to get drunk after a drink.

Tao Xiutian looked at the riverside and said with a smile, "Don't listen to your Uncle Li, drink as much as you want." Drinking too much hurts your body. ”

Li Changdong and his wife are very enthusiastic, but there is always something unnatural in this enthusiasm. Jiangbian is not very familiar with Li Changdong and his wife, so naturally he can't notice it, and even if he does, he won't care too much.

"Jiangbian, Uncle speaks very straight, don't care. At a young age, it's not okay to nest in a mid-mountain village. I have to go out and make money, and now there is a shortage of people everywhere outside, and it is easy to find a job. If you want to go out, I'll find you an acquaintance and a good factory for you. Work hard to make some money, come back and fix the house, and when the time comes, let your aunt introduce a beautiful mother-in-law. Li Changdong said.

As soon as Li Changdong finished speaking, before Jiangbian could answer, Li Yueji said, "Dad, what are you talking about?" Fishing in the Lulu River by the river, it costs thousands of dollars to go to the town for a trip, and three or four thousand yuan a month! Will you be able to find such a high-paying job for it? How many of them went out to work, more than 3,000? It is difficult to go to the rent and food to be able to leave 2,000. Can you have such a high income by the river? ”

"Can you have three or four thousand a month?" Li Changdong was very surprised.

Tao Xiutian was also surprised, and his eyes turned around.

For a time, the focus of Li Changdong and his wife was on the riverside.

"It's not as exaggerated as the moon season said, I didn't know how to fish to sell, a few days ago I caught dozens of catties of fish, and two old turtles, to catch the market, good luck, met a hotel, people collect wild fish at a high price. That's when I sold it for some money. However, this fish is not caught every day. Anyway, it's okay! Kawabe said.

Li Changdong and his wife have some insight.

Li Changdong nodded, "The people in this city are very picky now, and the fish raised in this pond are not eaten, and they want to eat wild fish, saying that they are high in protein and trace elements." Wild fish are much more expensive than domestic fish anyway. It's a pity that the river is not like when we were younger, and there were more fish in the heron river at that time. ”

Tao Xiutian also smiled, "This is a good livelihood, and only Jiangbian can eat this one." No matter how many fish there are in the heron river, you must be able to get them. In the past, there were still fishing with electricity, but now that the management is strict, you really need to be able to catch fish from the Lulu River. ”

Jiangbian and Li Changdong touched a glass, and the alcohol had begun to exert residual heat in Jiangbian's body, but fortunately, Jiangbian's heart was still bright, "Let's just make do with it, I didn't learn any culture, let me go out, it's a problem to enter the factory!" It is also possible to nest in this half-mountain village and eat while guarding the Lulu River. ”

The riverside was originally poured two taels of wine, but this time, I drank several glasses with Li Changdong, and I had to drink at least seven or eight taels, although I was a little drunk, but it was not to the point of getting drunk.

"The young man seems to be still hiding and pinching, and he says he can't drink! So far, it seems that I haven't drunk it at all. Li Changdong pointed to the riverside and said with a smile.

Where did Jiangbian know how he drank so much, "I really couldn't drink before, but today it may be that Uncle Li's dishes are doing well." ”

Tao Xiutian was also happy, "Whether the food is good or not, what does it have to do with the amount of wine?" Your boy's mouth is so sweet. ”

"Haha, your aunt's craftsmanship, that's not to say. If you have time in the future, you will come to my house, there is no good food, and the food is still full. Li Changdong said with a smile.

In the end, Jiangbian was still a little drunk, and Li Changdong's family wanted to stay in Jiangbian, but Jiangbian insisted on going home.

The golden nest and silver nest are not as good as their own kennels, and the riverside grows so big that they have never slept outside their own nests. It's like a farmer's livestock, and when it gets dark, it always runs to its nest. The riverside also walked a little shaky towards his home.

"If you go back to the river like this, it won't be good if you fall! I'd better go and deliver it! Li Yueji said.

Li Changdong and his wife were a little reluctant.

"Yueji, if he falls, it's not convenient for you to be a girl, so let your dad send it!" Tao Xiutian said.

"Forget it! Let him send it, I don't know who will take care of whom! I know that I can drink. Li Yueji has a lot of opinions on Li Changdong's liking for wine.

Jiangbian didn't know how he got home, but when he suddenly woke up when his mouth was dry, he found that it was late at night.

The rice wine of the farmhouse is not high, but it has a lot of stamina. Jiangbian rubbed his aching head, got up, scooped a scoop of water in the jug, and drank it with a bang.
