According to what Mrs. Huang said, Li Qingling and Liu Zhimo went to the town to buy pork and vegetables and came back, and by the way, they told the shopkeeper of Fumanlou about it.
They were collaborators, and out of politeness, they all had to tell him that it was his business whether he came or not.
After the two bought the things home, Li Qingling went to Lao Li Tou's house in person, and as soon as she saw Lao Li Tou sitting at the door, she called her grandfather and told him that tomorrow she was going to have dinner at her new home, and asked him to go over to eat.
Old Li Tou glanced up at Li Qingling, nodded, and didn't say whether to go or not.
Li Qingling didn't care much about whether she was going or not, she just came to tell him out of filial piety.
She saw that Lao Li Tou really didn't have anything to say, so she turned around and left.
As soon as she left, Li Laifu came out of the house and asked Old Li Tou, "Dad, how can Li Qingling, a little cheap hoof, have so much money to build such a big house?" "Such a spacious house is the only one in the village, and even the village chief's house is not so beautiful.
Lao Li Tou reached out and took the cigarette holder that was put aside, lit the fire, took a puff of dry tobacco, squinted slightly at the smoke that came out, and did not say a word.
Li Laifu held a stool, sat next to Lao Litou, and continued to brainwash Lao Litou, "Dad, Li Qingling's little cheap hoof, didn't you say that I would take you over to live?" "If he could live in such a beautiful house, he would wake up smiling when he fell asleep.
If the old man moved in, he could find an opportunity to move in with him.
When the time comes, the house will be his.
"Put away your fancy intestines, and don't mess around." What's going on in his son's mind? Could he not know?
"What do you mean by a flower intestine? Dad, Li Qingfeng is your own grandson, right? Isn't it right that you used to live with him and take care of him? You always want to go and live, and no one can find fault with it, right? ”
When he heard this, Lao Li's heart moved, and what his son said was not bad.
The word filial piety is bigger than the sky, even if he moves over, Li Qingling doesn't dare to drive him away directly.
With such a spacious and beautiful room, he was really a little moved.
Seeing that Lao Li Tou's expression was a little looser, Li Laifu persisted in persuading Lao Li Tou, hoping that Lao Li Tou would listen to him and take the initiative to move to Li Qingling's new house.
Only then will he have a chance to move in!
"Okay, don't be here anymore, go and remove the grass from the field when you have time, and it will be time for spring plowing in a few days."
Li Laifu knows how to stop from time to time, and he said to Lao Li Tou, Dad, think about it! He turned around and went into the house.
Where did he do the work of hoeing weeds? He is waiting to be the master, how can he do these things?
Lao Li lowered his head and continued to smoke dry cigarettes, but his face showed a thoughtful expression.
Li Qingling, who returned home, had no idea that the new house she hadn't lived in had been remembered so quickly.
"How's your stuff packed?" She looked at the children who were packing up their things, and she smiled and asked, "Is Rourou ready?" ”
Liu Zhirou pouted her little buttocks, and was trying to put her little clothes neatly, when she heard Li Qingling's words, she shook her little head and said no!
Li Qingling sat on the chair on the side, stretched out his hand and hugged Li Qingning in Liu Zhimo's arms, "Take your time, don't rush." She reached out and touched Li Qingning's little belly, "Is my sister hungry?" Do you want to drink grandma? ”
As soon as he heard that he was drinking grandma, Li Qingning looked at Li Qingning, stretched out his little finger, pointed in the direction of the kitchen, and screamed.
Li Qingling smiled when she saw her like this, "Okay, let's go drink grandma." She stood up and walked to the kitchen with Li Qingning in her arms.
took out a bowl of goat's milk that had been hot from the pot and brought it back to the house to feed Li Qingning.
When Li Qingning finished drinking her grandmother, several children also packed up their things.
"Sister, when will you move to the drifting house?" Liu Zhirou ran over, hugged Li Qingling's calf, held her little head high, and asked with a smile.
Li Qingling rubbed her little head, "Rourou is so good?" Packed up so quickly? Then wait for my sister to pack up her things and move over together, okay? ”
"Okay, okay!" Liu Zhirou nodded happily, as long as she could move to the drifting house and live, when she would move, she didn't care very much, "Sister, I'm going to be hungry too, and I want to drink grandma." "She saw that her sister drank grandma, and she wanted to drink it too.
"Then let the eldest brother bring it to you!"
When Liu Zhirou heard this, she ran to Liu Zhimo's side again and asked Liu Zhimo to bring her grandma to drink.
Liu Zhimo bent down and picked her up, pinched her little nose, said hello, and took her to the kitchen to drink goat's milk.
"Sister, go pack your things, I'll take my sister." Li Qingfeng ran over and hugged Li Qingning in Li Qingling's arms, "Sister, brother will take you to play!" ”
Li Qingling came out empty, so she went to pack her things.
After all the things were packed up, I slowly moved to the new home, and lived comfortably in the new home for one night, and early the next morning, Mrs. Huang brought a few women who were more diligent to help.
Li Qingling had already made breakfast, and when he saw them coming, he asked them to eat breakfast first before working.
As the saying goes, if you take people short and eat people with soft mouths, you can fill their stomachs first, and they can work willingly.
As soon as Aunt Huang and the others saw Li Qingling's breakfast, there was pork porridge and egg cakes, and their saliva immediately flowed out.
It's just that he still excuses himself, saying that he hasn't worked yet, so how can he eat first?
Li Qingling saw her careful thoughts, so she smiled and pulled them into the kitchen and let them eat, so she didn't have to be so polite to her.
Several women looked at Aunt Huang, and Aunt Huang nodded to them and said, then eat, and when you are done, you will work hard.
As soon as these words fell, several women began to eat one after another.
As soon as she finished breakfast, Aunt Huang asked Li Qingling, where did the things go? They're ready to get to work.
When Li Qingling opened the cupboard and took out the things, Aunt Huang and the others gasped, "Xiaoling, you buy so many things?" It's better than what we eat for the New Year. "This little spirit is really too good at running a house, how much does it cost to buy so much meat at once?
If you don't have an adult, you can't do it, and you spend money lavishly.
Li Qingling smiled and said, "Then I'll trouble you today." She was afraid that the whole village would come to eat, and if she bought less, she would not have enough to eat, so she bought more.
Once in a rare time, let's let everyone eat to their heart's content!
Aunt Huang said that it was not troublesome, and they got busy.
Li Qingling walked outside and went with Liu Zhimo to greet the villagers who came.
When people from the village come, they will bring a little bride price in their hands, which is not a valuable thing, nothing more than green vegetables or eggs.
Li Qingling and Liu Zhimo don't care much about these things, it doesn't matter how much they have, they just have their minds.
"Xiao Ling, how much did you spend on this house? So spacious. Looking at such a spacious house, the villagers who were very jealous in their hearts asked out loud, "I'm afraid I can't afford to live in such a spacious house in my life!" ”
Glancing at the sharp-mouthed, hanging-eyed woman, the smile on the corner of Li Qingling's mouth remained unchanged, "Ask me about this, but it's the wrong person, I really don't know how much this house cost?" This house is not mine. "If she had told me how much money had been spent, there would have been no peace in their family.
In order to prevent such a thing from happening, she could only push this matter onto Liu Zhimo.
The woman was stunned, obviously not believing Li Qingling's words, "Xiaoling, you are not kind, they are all from the same village, what is there to hide?" "This Li Qingling is really slippery, she just asked curiously, and she refused to tell her.
"Auntie, then you really wronged me, I really don't know." Li Qingling still replied with a good temper, "I'm just borrowing someone who lives here, how can I know such a secret thing?" ”
Frowning, she looked at Li Qingling, and saw that she looked very sincere, and the woman was a little convinced that this house was not funded by Li Qingling.
It wasn't her who paid for it, it was Liu Zhimo's money.
She opened her mouth and was about to ask Liu Zhimo, but before she could say anything, she was interrupted by a male voice.
"What? This house isn't yours? Li Laifu happened to hear this, and asked sharply, "Xiaoling, you're not joking, are you?" "If this house weren't for Li Qingling, how would his plan be implemented?
Li Qingling saw Lao Li's first few people, opened his mouth to say hello, and then replied to Li Laifu's words, "Uncle, can you joke about such a thing?" The name of the house was not her name, and she didn't say anything to deceive them.
"It's impossible, if you didn't pay for it, could it be this kid who paid for it? Yes? Li Laifu stretched out his hand and pointed at Liu Zhimo, who was standing on the side, and his tone was very dissatisfied, "Looking at him like this, how can he afford to build such a spacious house?" ”
He felt that Li Qingling was deliberately deceiving people.
Tilting his head to look at Li Laifu who was excited, Li Qingling's eyes were full of doubts, "Uncle, why are you so excited?" It doesn't seem like you're in business, right? As she spoke, her eyes glanced at Lao Li and them without any traces.
Immediately, she understood something.
"Why don't you ......?"
"Ahem...... cough hard" Old Li Tou coughed vigorously twice, interrupting Li Laifu's words that he almost blurted out, if Li Laifu said the words, then they would have to lose face again, "Okay, let's go in!" ”
"Dad, you go in first, and I'll ask you what's going on?" He really didn't believe that this house was paid for by Liu Zhimo.
At this moment, a carriage stopped at the door, and the shopkeeper lifted the curtain and walked out.
When Liu Zhimo saw it, he greeted him and said, "Uncle shopkeeper, rare guests!" ”
