(PS: Writing these things is mainly to write about the current situation of the existing countryside and pave the way for the plot later)
"It's delicious, it's delicious, it's still my mother's cooking, this pig ear is my favorite since I was a child, and my mother's stew tastes the best."
comforted his mother, Li Fu kept praising while eating heavily, diverting his mother's attention to other things, don't think about those troublesome things.
"You kid, eat more if it's delicious, and your mother will make it for you every day."
Sure enough, seeing that Li Fu liked to eat the dishes he made, Liu Shuixiu showed a smile on her face, and said with a smile while serving Li Fu the dishes, her face was full of love.
"My mother's cooking is really delicious, and I gain a few pounds every time I go home."
Li Fu's younger brother Li Xing also followed the call, obviously seeing Li Fu's intentions, and he didn't want his mother to think about unhappy things.
"It's delicious, you two brothers eat more, the water cabbage at school, you don't even have some oil and water, you can eat more when you go home."
Liu Shuixiu looked at his two sons, with a smile on his face, although he has been crying all his life in this life, but seeing his two sons have a future, everything is worth it.
"Brother, tell me how you came up with a drug to treat HIV? You've been on the news, and the world probably knows your name. ”
Li Xing is also a clever child, and the topic shifted to Li Fu.
"I was also lucky, I researched it by accident, but I didn't expect it to really work."
Li Fu smiled, this is indeed luck, if he didn't get the seeds of super civilization, Li Fu would not have been able to have his current achievements at all, maybe he would be an ordinary college student, and he would live an ordinary life in the future.
"Oh, by the way, Mom, my girlfriend Wang Yun bought you and Dad a few clothes, you can see if it fits."
When he said this, Li Fu took out the clothes Wang Yun bought and showed them to his mother.
"This child really has a heart, and I will bring her home when our new house is built next year."
Li Fu's mother touched the new clothes, her face was full of smiles, not to mention how this gift was, at least this intention made Li Fu's mother like it very much, although they had not met yet, they also had a good impression of Wang Yun.
"Hmm!"
Li Fu nodded, and then continued to eat.
After eating a meal, the two brothers Li Fu and Li Xing tried their best to talk about their own things, so that their mother would not think of those sad things, so they talked and laughed while eating, and they were happy.
"Tsk, the changes in the village are really big enough, the old houses have disappeared, and the beautiful villas are all over the years, it seems that everyone has made money over the years."
After eating, Li Fu prepared to go to the village for a walk, looking at this place where he grew up, he felt more and more unfamiliar, and many familiar places in the past have changed dramatically.
One of the biggest changes is that the old houses in the village have basically disappeared, and every household has built beautiful small houses, each one is more beautiful than the other, and the planning is neat, and it is obvious that the construction of the new countryside is still fruitful.
"Isn't this Li Fu of Li Erlang's family, back?"
"I'm back."
Along the way, it is indispensable to greet uncles, grandparents and the like in the village.
"There are fewer and fewer old people, and many familiar faces that used to be can no longer be seen."
While walking, I also sighed, and at the same time, I couldn't help but shush the old man I met, maybe I saw him this time, and I may never see him again next time.
"Uncle, hasn't Li Qiang come back yet?"
Li Fu walked halfway through the village, and found that they were basically old people and children playing and playing, and the younger young men seemed to have disappeared one by one, and they also wanted to chat with their childhood playmate Li Qiang, so they came to Li Qiang's house and asked Li Qiang's father, Li Yuebao.
"I'm back, I've been back a long time ago, now every day is not on the mahjong table or gambling with people, I can't stay at home for a moment, you don't know, I've lost more than 20,000 these days, I don't listen to persuasion, I have to gamble, my salary is not a few dollars a month, and it's not big to play mahjong."
was asked by Li Fu about his son Li Qiang, Li Yuebao was angry, and talked about it eloquently.
"I'm working all year round, so it's normal to have time to play during the Chinese New Year."
Li Fu smiled and comforted.
"Play and play, where are these young people in our village playing, they are all gambling, and the more they gamble, the bigger they get, they all seem to be very rich, alas, it would be much better if they were stricter and read more books like you, you look, you are a big scientist now."
Li Yuebao shook his head, now his son is also hardened in his wings, and he makes his own money and spends it himself, so he can't care about it at all.
"There are wins and losses, where are they playing, I also went to join in the fun, I haven't chatted with them for a long time."
Li Fu smiled, thinking of these childhood playmates, but also with a smile on his face.
"Where else can it be, it must be where Li Dazui is in the commissary in our village, and now it has become a casino, where are the young people in our village, and there are more than ten mahjong machines."
Li Yuebao looked very sure.
"Okay, I'm going to find them, let's go first."
Li Fu smiled and said goodbye, and walked towards the village commissary.
It is said to be a commissary, but in fact, the first floor of Li Dazui's house has entered some commonly used goods for the convenience of people in the village, Li Dazui's house has a total of 5 floors, basically full of mahjong machines, card tables and the like, and groceries and the like can't make a few dollars in a year, but these mahjong machines, card tables and the like are enough to make Li Dazui earn a lot of money once it comes to the New Year.
At this time, Li Dazui's house, from time to time, there are people in the house, but it is rare to see people come out, in the room, smoke, all kinds of shouts are non-stop, playing mahjong, Zha Jinhua, bullfighting bulls...... All kinds of gambling are available here, and the young people of the whole village, as well as some people who like to be lively and gamble, all gather here.
"I said why can't I find you, it's all here."
Li Fu came to Li Dazui's house, although Li Dazui's family did not work much, but they were rich people in the village, the whole house was very large, and the area of the foundation was almost 300 square meters.
"Nobleman, nobleman, it's a great talent who has returned."
"The Great Scientist is back."
"I thought your kid wouldn't come back for the New Year."
All the familiar people also greeted Li Fuyi with a smile, and then they were busy playing mahjong.
"Li Qiang, what about that kid? How did I not see others. ”
Li Fu looked around and didn't see Li Qiang, so he asked.
"He's playing fried gold tweed upstairs, he won't play mahjong with us."
Some people who are familiar with Li Qiang responded with a smile, obviously playing cards below is really playing, a few pieces, a few pieces of mahjong to kill time, will not play too much.
"Let's play slowly, I'll go up and find Li Qiang."
Li Fu smiled and walked upstairs.
"This Li Dazui is really good at business, no wonder you can make a fortune by opening this, the first floor is an ordinary mahjong player, and the second floor is a variety of mahjong rooms similar to private rooms, and the mahjong players here are also playing bigger."
Li Fu shook his head with a smile, and walked around here on the second floor, all of them were familiar faces, where the young people were playing, and there were no outsiders between the rooms, playing cards quietly.
Li Fu came to the third floor, the third floor is all a card table, at this time each card table here is gathered a large circle of old and young masters, one by one where to play bullfighting bulls and the like, very devoted, the winner smiled and frowned, the loser scolded and scolded, slapped the table, smashed things and so on.
On the fourth floor, Li Fu finally found his good friend Li Qiang when he was a child, at this time he was sitting next to a table of eight immortals, the table of eight immortals was surrounded by a circle of people, each of whom held a large handful of red banknotes in their hands, and there were piles of red banknotes on the table, and they were silent with each other, as if they were fighting a big war.
Even Li Fu's arrival did not attract attention, Li Fu came to Li Qiang's side, at this time he was slowly rubbing cards, engrossed on the card table.
“300!”
After Li Qiang finished rubbing the cards, he threw down a few red bills in his hand without feeling distressed at all.
"Ma Dan, hell, K Jinhua actually met Shunjin."
Soon, the game had a result, and the red money in Li Qiang's hand was empty, and he lost thousands of cards in one hand.
"Hadrons."
Li Fu shook his head, the gambling wind in the village is too prosperous, now everyone has some money in their hands, and when they gamble, they are gambling more and more, just now Li Qiang and others in this game, the winning and losing on the card table is tens of thousands.
"Brother Fu, when are you coming back?"
Hearing Li Fu's voice, the others realized that there was one more person next to them, and they all hurriedly looked over and asked with a smile.
"I just got home today, and I walked around the village and found that there was no one, so it turned out that everyone had come here."
Li Fu smiled, and the people present also used to play together when they were children.
"Come, come, everyone hurry up and squeeze and make way for Brother Fu, Brother Fu is now a world-renowned scientist, and he is worth a proper billionaire!"
Li Qiang smiled and asked people to give Li Fu a place, and said to everyone that in fact, the matter about Li Fu had already spread in the village, and everyone knew about it.
"Yes, yes, hurry up, the real rich man is here, we people are nothing compared to Brother Fu, and it is rare to have a chance to play together."
Everyone else followed suit and shouted for Li Fu to join the game.
"Let's play, I really don't know how to play."
Li Fu smiled and shook his head, he didn't have any interest in gambling.
