It's still such a quiet mountain village, and it's still a few dilapidated mud houses.

head, carefully counting the herbs in the medicine basket one by one.
"Dad, I'm back. Wang Lu stepped forward gently, biting her lip tightly, her eyes full of tears.
"Uncle, I'm here. Li Chen stepped forward and looked at Wang Fa squatting on the ground and said.
When Wang Fa heard the voice, he raised his head, found the two of them, and couldn't help but ask suspiciously, "Xiaolu, why did you come back?"
Why are you here?"
"Dad, this ......" Wang Lu couldn't speak.
"Uncle, let's go into the house first. Li Chen saw Wang Lu's embarrassment and cleared the siege.
"Oh, well, it's a guest from afar, come in, come in. Wang Fa put down the herbs in his hand, took Li Chen's hand and said.
"Uncle, I'm in love with your daughter. After entering the house, Wang Fa sat down on a shabby chair, and Li Chen said bluntly. "What is love?" For a farmer like Wang Fa, who has never been out of town in his life, the word "love" is new

"What?" Wang Fa exclaimed in surprise, and then asked, "You mean, you and my daughter are on good terms and want to get married?"
"Not bad. Li Chen affirmed: "The purpose of my visit this time is to ask you to marry your daughter to me. β
Wang Fa glanced at Li Chen, did not answer his words, but asked Wang Lu: "Xiaolu, marriage is a major event in a lifetime, meaning."
You're going to stay together for the rest of your life, have you really thought about it?"
"Well," Wang Lu lowered his head and replied shyly, "Dad, I have thought about it, I want to marry Li Chen." β
Listening to Wang Lu's words, Wang Fa did not speak, but stood up, took out a box of cigarettes from under the pillow on the kang on the side, took out one, and used it
The match trembled and lit it, took a hard breath, and sat back in his chair.
"Uncle, do you agree?" asked Li Chen cautiously.
Wang Fa listened to Li Chen's words, took a puff of cigarette again, and said, "Okay, since Xiaolu has already thought about it, I will no longer object." However, Xiaochen, you have to remember that you have to be good to Xiaolu for the rest of your life, and you can't wronged her. β
"Uncle, thank you. Li Chen said excitedly: "However, I still have two fiancΓ©es, and I must tell you about this situation." β
"What? You actually have someone outside with Xiaolu on your back?" Wang Fa stood up from his chair in surprise.
"Dad, I already knew about this, and the other two are my good sisters. Wang Lu walked up to Wang Fa and said in a low voice.
"Then Xiaolu, don't you feel wronged?" Wang Fa asked with a frown.
"No, I'm already very happy, Dad, you agree. Wang Lu replied.
"Alas!" Wang Fa sighed heavily, sat down on the chair again, and said to Li Chen: "I can't call the shots in this matter, I have to be with Xiao."
Lu's mother discussed. Alright, you all go out and leave me alone for a while. β
Li Chen helplessly pulled Wang Lu, who still wanted to say something, out of the house, and a woman in a gray shirt walked over.
"Ah, Xiaolu, why are you here? Also, Xiaochen, why are you here. The woman asked.
"Mom, I have something to do when I come back this time, just ask my dad for details, he is waiting for you in the house. Wang Lu lowered her head and replied.
This woman is none other than Wang Lu's mother, Wang Fen.
"Oh, then I'll go in and ask, and you'll take Xiao Chen around. Wang Fen found out that her daughter was abnormal, but she didn't ask much
It was walked into the house.
"Tell me, what's this called!" As soon as Wang Fen walked into the room, Wang Fa shouted.
"What's wrong? Who made you angry?" Wang Fen said suspiciously.
"Well, it's not the two of them. Wang Fa sighed heavily: "Xiaolu came back this time to bring Li Chen to the door to propose his relatives." β
"Then this is a good thing, why are you still unhappy, how good Xiaochen is this child. Wang Fen asked puzzled.
"Alas!" Wang Fa sighed again: "Xiao Chen, this kid is too good, many people like him, no, Xiao Lu told me."
, said that she was going to marry Xiao Chen, but Xiao Chen already had two wives. β
"Ah, is there such a thing?" Wang Fen exclaimed in surprise, lowered his head and thought about it carefully, and said, "Alas, since the child has already considered it."
Okay, then let's not worry about her, Xiaolu has grown up and has her own opinions. β
"But......," Wang Fa wanted to say more.
"Forget it, you can fulfill them, as long as Xiaolu is happy. Wang Fen persuaded again.
"Alas!" said the king, with a sigh, "go and call them in." β
"Do you agree?" asked Wang Fen.
"What if you don't agree? The children have grown up, and they can't always take care of her. Wang Fa said helplessly.
"Alright, I'll call them both in. After speaking, Wang Fen turned around and went out.
When Wang Fen came to the courtyard, Li Chen and Wang Lu were in a hurry in the courtyard, seeing this situation, Wang Fen smiled and said, "Hehe, okay,
Don't worry about it here, go in. β
"Mom, my dad did he agree?" Wang Lu asked in surprise by pulling Wang Fen's cuffs.
"Well, that's good. As soon as Wang Fen finished speaking, Wang Lu pulled Xiao Chen and ran into the house.
"Hehe, this child, I have a husband and forget my mother. Wang Fen looked at Wang Lu's back and said helplessly.
"Xiao Chen, come here. As soon as Li Chen walked into the house, Wang Fa said to him.
"Uncle, what's the matter with you?" asked Li Chen uneasily.
"Xiao Chen, you are a good boy, you are excellent in all aspects, Xiaolu followed you, you won't let her suffer, right?" Wang Fa took a sip
Smoke, asked.
"Uncle, don't worry, I will definitely love and cherish her, and I won't let her suffer any grievances. Li Chen promised.
"Well, I'm relieved to have your words, and I'll hand over Xiaolu to you. This child's life has been bitter since she was a child, and when we beat her when she was young,
I haven't given her a good day, and now, she is with you, and it can be regarded as a bittersweet one. Wang Fa took Wang Lu's hand and handed it to Li Chen. "Dad!" Li Chen shouted heavily, closing Wang Fale's mouth.
"Well, my family decided to get engaged in two days, and I hope you can go. Li Chen continued.
"Engagement? It's a betrothal, right? I'm not going to go here, it's such a long way. Wang Fa thought for a moment and refused.
"It's okay, we flew and arrived quickly. Li Chen explained.
"But, I've heard, it's expensive. Wang Fa said hesitantly.
"Hehe, Dad. Wang Lu chuckled: "You may not know that you, your son-in-law, are the richest person in the world." β
"Don't talk nonsense! no matter how big the world is, how can Xiao Chen be the richest?" Wang Fa said in disbelief.
"Dad, it's true. Li Chen explained: "Believe it or not, these ticket money is a drop in the bucket for me. β
"Oh well. Wang Fa thought about it carefully: "Then let's go, but when I get married, I have to come back early, I still have it here."
Live it. β
"Haha, don't you pick up medicine, climb cliffs all day long, climb cliffs, how dangerous it is, in the future, I will support your old age. Li Chen smiled
Suddenly, he said.
"How can I do it, I have my own hands and feet, and I'm afraid that I won't be able to eat. When Wang Fa heard this, he hurriedly refused.
"Dad, don't fight. Behold, this time you have moved your home, and from now on, you will live with me. Li Chen said.
"No!" Wang Fa categorically refused: "I have lived here for decades, and I have feelings, but I can't bear it." Besides,
Although the place is broken, it is my own home. β
"Well, I'll send someone to build you a new home, and it's still here. That way, you don't have to leave your hometown. Dad, you'll listen to me this time
Yes. Li Chen thought for a moment and said again.
"yes, Dad, it's time to do it this time. Wang Lu also agreed.
"Alright then, just do as you say. Wang Fa thought for a moment and agreed.
"Alright, Dad, you pack your things, and we'll go. Li Chen arranged.
"Well, I'll go. Come in, get some clothes, let's go to Xiaolu's marriage!" Wang Fa stood up and shouted out the door
Road.
"Dad!" Wang Lu called helplessly: "You don't need to take the clothes, I'll buy them for you when you get there." β
Li Chen watched with tears and laughter.
Wang sent to pack up his things, Li Chen took out his mobile phone again and dialed a call: "Hey, Secretary Li An?"
"It's me, who are you?" said Li An, the secretary of the municipal party committee of M City, on the other end of the phone.
"Hehe, Secretary Li is so busy, he even forgot my voice? I'm Li Chen. Li Chen joked.
"Ahh Why do you have time to call me?" said Ang Lee in surprise.
"Hehe, I'm here for you, please do something. Li Chen explained.
"Chief, if you have any orders, I will do it. On the other end of the phone, Li An said with a package ticket.
"It's not a big deal, it's just that you want to send a few cars to pick me up, I'm in Wangzhuang, Lotus Town, the family you came to last time. Li Chen said
Road.
"Yes, don't worry, I'll be there in a moment. Ang Lee agreed.
"Okay, that's it, Secretary Li, you're busy. After Li Chen hung up the phone, he called again to book four more tickets.
At this time, Wang Fa and Wang Fen walked in with large bags and small bags.
"Huh?" Li Chen and Wang Lu were dumbfounded, because the big bag contained some clothes, pancakes, and even herbs!
"Dad!" Li Chen said helplessly: "What I mean is, you change into a clean set of clothes, why do you take so many big and small bags."
You don't have to take these things. β
"Look, I'll leave some of these clothes for a change of clothes, and I'll eat them on the way to the pancakes, and I'll sell them when we're in town, and I'll be sure to get them for a good price." β
Li Chen felt like he was about to collapse.
