Li Mingren went back into the room and lit the oil lamp. Zhao Yunlan took Xiaobao to wash up and go to bed, looking at Li Mingren's appearance that he didn't plan to sleep yet, Zhao Yunlan politely cared for him: "Xianggong, it's time to rest." ”

Zhao Yunlan was very apprehensive in her heart, but thinking that Xiaobao was beside her, Li Mingren would not do anything.

Li Mingren said: "You guys go to sleep first, and I'll study for a while." I saw Li Mingren take out the book, sit at the end of the bed, and lean against the wooden box.

Zhao Yunlan thought to herself, even if the room is lit with an oil lamp, it will not be dim, so it takes her eyes to read the book, but she didn't say anything, after all, the two of them used to get along with each other silently, and it would be embarrassing if they cared more, Zhao Yunlan went to the inside of the bed, put Xiaobao in the middle, and only left the outside place for Li Mingren, it is still very convenient to have a baby! There's no need to make excuses for dealing with this kind of thing.

It's just that there is one more person to occupy the position of the bed, and she can't move when she sleeps at night, Zhao Yunlan closed her eyes and gently patted Xiaobao, while thinking, she slowly fell asleep.

Li Mingren watched the mother and son fall asleep so quickly, and involuntarily lowered the sound of turning the book, and when he turned another page, he heard Zhao Yunlan's small snoring, which seemed to be infected, and sleepiness followed, and after holding on for a while, he decided to close the book and lie down to sleep. Li Mingren didn't realize that tonight was the earliest time he had slept in so long.

Li Mingren covered the quilt, I don't know if it was because today's quilt was freshly dried and became warmer. Smelling the faint smell of sunshine emanating from the quilt and listening to the snoring around him, Li Mingren also fell asleep quickly.

Early the next morning, Zhao Yunlan got up and didn't see Li Mingren's figure, Zhao Yunlan didn't expect that there would be more strangers next to him who could sleep so well, Zhao Yunlan looked at Xiaobao in the middle who was still sleeping, so she had to shake her head and smile helplessly, it was really two mother and son.

Zhao Yunlan has recently developed the habit of getting up early and exercising in the morning, so she got up earlier than the Li family, but she didn't expect Li Mingren to get up earlier.

Zhao Yunlan got dressed and folded the quilt for Xiaobao and walked out gently, and saw Li Mingren standing there in the courtyard shaking his head and recognizing, and greeted Li Mingren out of politeness: "Xianggong, good morning, you got up really early." ”

Li Mingren never greeted others in the morning, and was a little stunned for a while, and then said: "I am used to getting up in the morning to memorize an article all year round, so I get up early every morning." ”

Zhao Yunlan nodded clearly, Zhao Yunlan didn't care if Li Mingren got up early or not, the two of them just seemed to have an intersection.

Zhao Yunlan walked out of the courtyard and trotted slowly, perhaps after Zhao Yunlan's brainwashing and a good night's sleep yesterday, Li Mingren easily accepted Zhao Yunlan's behavior, continued to memorize the book, and the Li family also got up one after another to clean up.

When Zhao Yunlan trotted back, there was smoke in the kitchen, and the little sister had already started to cook breakfast, Zhao Yunlan went back to the room to wash up and see if Xiaobao got up, and as soon as she opened the door, she saw the father and son staring at each other.

Xiaobao woke up and heard what the scum was saying outside, and there was no familiar mother around him and cried directly, Li Mingren heard that he hurriedly came in, and he didn't know how to coax him to look at Xiaobao, Xiaobao didn't cry when he saw someone coming, and there was the scene when Zhao Yunlan entered the door: "Xianggong, you go to the room first to greet your father, I'll dress Xiaobao and come." ”

Li Mingren was frustrated all of a sudden, but he had no choice but to go out to see his father and mother first. Zhao Yunlan took Xiaobao down and peed, stuffed it back into the quilt, then scrubbed herself, and dressed Xiaobao and washed her face.

Li Mingmei shouted that it was time to eat, and Zhao Yunlan hugged Xiaobao and went to the upper room. The family sat neatly together and had breakfast. After eating, Zhao Yunlan talked about going to the village chief's house to borrow money for a while, and the family's nerves suddenly tensed. Zhao Yunlan continued, "Xianggong will study with peace of mind, if my father and younger brothers go to the field, they will go normally, and my little sister will take care of my mother at home, and I will make arrangements when I borrow the money back." ”

Li Mingzhi said that he was going to the mountains to see if there were any mountain goods, but the old man Li didn't say anything, he went out with a hoe, the second and third followed behind, and the fourth ran out in a hurry with a basket on his back, as if he could pick up another chicken in the next second.

Zhao Yunlan saw that the Li family was busy with their own affairs, coaxed Xiaobao and went to the village chief's house, the village chief's house was in the center of the village, and it was not too far to walk over, and when she arrived at the door of the village chief's house, she looked at the village chief's daughter-in-law drying firewood in the yard, and shouted, "Auntie, is the village chief's uncle at home?" ”

Wang Guifang looked at Zhao Yunlan standing outside the courtyard, and hurriedly put down the firewood in his hand and let Zhao Yunlan enter the door to sit: "Your uncle is cleaning up in the backyard, you come in first to sit, and I will call you." With that, he walked to the backyard.

Zhao Yunlan looked at the house of the village chief's house, the bright brick house, the furniture in the house was old but very clean, and there was no damage, the house was spacious and bright, the yard was also clean and neat, and the house was twice as many as Lao Li's house.

The head of the Li family village is called Li Chunsheng, the family has three sons and two daughters, the eldest son Li Dashan is in the county government to catch fast, already has a son and a daughter, the second son Li Dachuan takes care of the fields at home, assists his father in dealing with the big and small affairs in the village, and also has a son, the third son Li Dalin is in the town's restaurant as a shopkeeper, just married, the eldest daughter Li Yulan got married, married to the town to sell wine in the Xiao family wine shop, the youngest daughter Li Guihua has not yet said kiss.

At present, only the eldest grandson of the Li family is studying in the county, because of Li Chukuai, the family lives in a house arranged by the county government.

Looking at the village chief coming from afar, followed by the youngest daughter Li Guihua, and the village chief's daughter-in-law, at this moment in Zhao Yunlan's eyes, the village chief is a capable middle-aged man, but in ancient times, he got married early, and his life span was not long, the village chief was considered an old man, and he was a few years older than Old Man Li, but because the food at home was not bad, he did not look as old as Old Man Li.

Li Guihua: "Hello sister-in-law, I'll pour you a bowl of water." ”

Zhao Yunlan: "Hey, don't bother the girl." ”

Wang Guifang next to him, "If you want it, if you want it, just drink a bowl of water poured by your sister-in-law, how is your mother-in-law's health, I heard that my spirit has improved a lot that day, and I can do needlework." ”

Wang Guifang and Wang are both from Dawang Village, the two of them married to Lijia Village before and after, in the first few years, when Wang's body and bones were still OK, the two often went to the river to wash clothes together, and did homework, since Wang's illness no longer left the house, the two people had less contact, and had to be free, Wang Guifang would go to visit Wang.

Zhao Yunlan: "Thank you aunt for your concern, my mother's body has improved a little during this time, and she used to do needlework with energy, you also know my mother, she is a person who can move and never lie down, and I can't persuade her." ”

Wang Guifang: "Okay!" Tell your uncle if there's anything. ”

Li Guihua: "Sister-in-law, drink saliva and talk slowly." I went to the backyard to feed the chickens. Stay for lunch later. ”

Zhao Yunlan said: "Auntie, don't be polite to me, I'll go back after I finish speaking, I came this time to borrow money from the village chief's uncle, my father-in-law is about to take the exam, and you have to use money inside and out, this is still a few days away from the spring rush, and I can't make up the money all of a sudden, so I have to find my uncle here, that is, this spring busy harvest may not be enough to repay the money, and the latest autumn harvest will be repaid, uncle, can you borrow a thousand dollars if you have enough money." ”

Li Chunsheng: "Hey, it's not easy to provide a reader, your eldest nephew has been studying in the town for two years, and we all feel that it is not easy!" What's more, in the situation of your family, you can still insist on letting Akihito study, hey, it's just so many years, the boss is still..., don't talk about these, money, your uncle lent you, the last time your father sold land, I persuaded him, don't sell it, I'll take it here first to save an emergency, he doesn't listen to persuasion, I don't ask more, uncle borrows you, I don't ask when you will pay it back, uncle believes you. ”

Zhao Yunlan didn't expect the borrowing to be so smooth, and when Li Chunsheng took out a string of money, Zhao Yunlan's eyes were red, this was the first time she had borrowed money in her two lives, and she was moved and excited.

Wang Guifang left Zhao Yunlan to eat, Zhao Yunlan resolutely postponed, she was used to eating two meals on weekdays, and it was a little novel to see that the village chief's house was three meals.

Zhao Yunlan took the money and went out, and Li Chunsheng instructed the osmanthus to send Zhao Yunlan. The two of them walked for a while, and Zhao Yunlan said that there was no need to send it anymore, let Li Guihua go back.

Zhao Yunlan went home in a good mood.
