012 Deliberation
It was Qiao Ximei who broke the silence first.
She gave Li Jingfu a chopstick of sauerkraut, and asked everyone to move the chopsticks:
"The second and third children should have brought their words today. Let's eat first, if you have any ideas, we'll talk about it after eating. ”
And they began to eat.
It's just that the Cao family, Li Tao, and the Cao family's daughter Li Yunzhu are inevitably a little unpalatable.
The chopsticks wandered around the dining table, but they didn't know where to start.
In the end, Li Tao sandwiched a wild vegetable dumpling, and ate it in small bites, small bites, and gnawed and eaten.
Cao's only sandwiched a chopstick of sauerkraut, and Cao's daughter, Li Yunzhu, only sandwiched a chopsticks of vermicelli.
The contents of the two people's bowls combined, not as much as the others have in one bite.
Qiao Ximei only felt her temples jump suddenly.
She endured and endured, and almost threw her chopsticks on Cao's face.
Li Huai's behavior was quite natural, and the wild vegetable dumplings produced by the Nie family could even be eaten.
only half-jokingly asked Li Jingfu:
"Dad, let's two of you, don't you take two sips?"
Li Jingfu naturally loves the contents of this cup.
It's just that Qiao Ximei is usually strict, and he doesn't dare to show up.
Hearing Li Huai say this, he hurriedly glanced at Qiao Ximei's face secretly.
Seeing Qiao Ximei's face was pale, and she looked like she was trying her best to forbear, Li Jingfu hurriedly shook his hand:
"What to drink, it's high for a while, how can you discuss business?!"
Li Huai smiled and didn't squeak.
He knew his father's fault, and he was afraid of guilt.
However, no matter which old man is replaced, it is impossible not to be afraid of a woman like his mother.
His father and mother all fled from the wilderness, and they encountered a lot of messy things along the way.
His father followed the family, dozens of men, women, and children, most of whom were young and strong.
But on the way, he encountered bandits and routs twice, and he was scattered.
Among the dozens of people, in the end, all of them arrived at the backer, only his father Li Jingfu and his second uncle Li Jingmao, the lonely brothers.
Her mother was pushing a small cart at that time, carrying her father and sister-in-law, a family of four, with a little salute.
Unexpectedly, the wife walked peacefully to Bohai County all the way, and there was no shortage of four people!
Can the wife be peaceful on the way to escape?
Who will believe it?!
A few months ago, Li Huai heard his father mention that when his mother first arrived in Gushantun, she was not as old as Sister Zhu. It's about the same age as Sister Rou'er now.
Along the way, how can it be possible if you don't encounter something?
Li Huai sometimes can't help but suspect that his mother's hands are not ready for life.
When his father bought land, built a house and bought blue bricks and red tiles, the money was not together, which time was not the "dowry" paid by his mother?
But Li Huai always felt that his mother's dowry might not really be so thick.
The origin of the "dowry" is not the same color.
Therefore, against his father, Li Huai occasionally dared to blow up.
If it's against his mother, he only dares to coax, but he never dares to screw it!
Qiao Ximei was in a bad mood and was worried about business, so she hurriedly ate a few bites, filled her stomach, and put away her chopsticks.
Cao's, Li Tao, and Li Yunzhu were overjoyed when they saw that Qiao Ximei was not eating, and immediately put down the dishes and chopsticks.
The rest of the Lao Li family, although they have a lot of shadows about the Nie family's craftsmanship, after all, they have been busy for a day, and when they are tired and hungry, they are naturally not so picky.
Seeing Qiao Ximei and others putting off their chopsticks, they were still a little reluctant. Hurriedly gobbling up the bottom of the bowl neatly, ready to get off the table.
Li Mei has a more stable temperament, no matter how much she doesn't like to eat, you can't see it.
Li Yunxin's pain is actually no less than that of the Cao family.
This time, she had a deep understanding of what real coarse grains are.
Moreover, Nie's craftsmanship really can't stand the mother-in-law Ding and purslane that Li Yunrou worked so hard to dig back.
The wild vegetables that were originally fragrant and crisp and tender, I don't know how Nie picked them up.
The chewy head is almost on par with sun-dried enoki mushrooms.
The bitter taste is said to be the old vegetable root left over from last year, and some people believe it.
The mixed noodles seem to be not fermented properly, or the alkali is not used correctly, in short, there is an indescribable strange taste, just like the smell of stinky feet.
Li Yunxin stiffened, wrinkled his nose, and gnawed his teeth for a long time before he finished gnawing half of the wild vegetable dumplings with great effort.
When Qiao Ximei saw it, she only felt that her temples suddenly jumped even harder.
But at the moment, there is no time to make extraneous branches and teach the little girl a lesson.
Sister Xin is just one of the many granddaughters, so let the fourth family worry about it!
Qiao Ximei didn't say anything, only glared at Li Yunxin, and asked the big guy to get off the table and remove the dishes and chopsticks.
If you want to get down to business, you naturally have to drive everyone else away.
Only the five sons of the Li family, the five daughters-in-law and daughters-in-law, and the two married daughters Li Tao and Li Mei were left in the hall.
Qiao Ximei first asked Li Jingfu to repeat the detailed news he had heard from the lieutenant commander about the conscription order, and then said to everyone:
"In the past, when there was an exemption order, our family didn't have to worry about this. Now I can't worry about it.
You all talk about it, how should our family deal with this matter. ”
Li Huai looked calm.
He was lame.
Presumably, this conscription order will not be able to recruit him for a while.
Lao Li's family was not separated.
Except for Li Tao and Li Mei, the two married daughters, everyone else's household registration is in one place.
If the old Li family only needs to produce one strong man, then what about such an old man in his brother's generation!
The second, third, fourth, fifth, which one can't go?
The army of other people will definitely not let go of a strong man with good arms and legs, but will be specially named, and he must be recruited as a lame and frail scholar!
The second Li Liu is also very calm.
He had many brothers and many sons.
Either the brother goes, or the son goes, and he doesn't go anyway.
If you really can't do it, you will pretend to be sick.
By the way, I have to hurry up and go to the crude medicine shop in the town to buy some croton and come back to prepare.
If you really can't shirk it, you can eat some croton ruthlessly, and you can't look down on those conscripts!
The third Li Song, the fourth Li Yu and the fifth Li Tong are not as confident as the eldest and second.
All three were a little apprehensive.
If you go by yourself, you can't bear your wife and children.
If you let my brother go, I can't say that.
Alas, if only there was no such conscription order!
Or, can there be another way to do it?
Li Song couldn't help but ask, but he turned out to be the first to speak:
"Father, mother, didn't this conscription order also say that money, grain and people should be requisitioned?
How much is this money and food?
Can this man and his military service be replaced with money and food? ”
Li Song thought simply.
The sword has no eyes on the battlefield. His own brothers are all mud legs that are shaved in the soil, and none of them are the material for the soldiers.
It's best not to go at all.
