Chapter 53: Homecoming
Li Mingren was ashamed at home, looking forward to the return of the Li family every day, but also worried that they would come back and face it without a word.
Zhao Yunlan is happy in the county. Old man Li's wound accidentally got wet again during the recovery period, so he had to remove the stitches later.
Zhao Yunlan thought about going back first, just in time to remove the stitches, and take the Wang family to Fucheng for a follow-up.
Old man Li and Wang had been looking forward to going back, and the two of them were happy when they got up in the morning.
Old man Li stretched out his arm to support his legs, "Oops! The gold nest and silver nest are not as good as their own kennels. ”
Wang patted Old Man Li's back in fear: "Then you go back to sleep in the kennel, and I'll sleep in the bed." ”
Old man Li smiled.
Zhao Yunlan went to hire a mule cart and brought a lot of things. When I came, I didn't take anything with me, except for money, and now that I'm leaving, there's nothing left, but a lot of things. Old man Li and the Wang family were used to being thrifty, and they were reluctant to throw anything away, so Zhao Yunlan had to load them all into the car. This is a pain for Li Mingli to move things again and again.
Well, there is also the jade crisp cake that Zhao Yunlan wants to bring back to Li Mingren to eat. When Li Mingli looked at this snack box at that time, he wondered why Zhao Yunlan didn't take it out and eat it, so he had to take the initiative to ask Zhao Yunlan. Zhao Yunlan wanted to say that it was not delicious, but then she said happily: "Harm, look at my memory, come and taste it for you and your father, it is said that the nobles of Fucheng love to eat." ”
Li Mingli stuffed it in expectantly, and Old Man Li was not to be outdone, Zhao Yunlan only listened to two "vomit~" outside the door~"
When leaving, Zhao Yunlan went to settle the money for Mrs. Feng, and the money was all in a money bag, and Mrs. Feng didn't take it out and count it. I just feel that I haven't taken so much money for a long time, and this money is a lot heavier.
"Granny Feng, if you have time to come to our Lijia Village, next time we come to the county seat, we will come to rent your yard."
Mrs. Feng: "Well, okay, the house will be kept for you next time." I'll sit with you when I'm free. ”
The four of them said goodbye and got into the car and left.
Old Mrs. Feng turned around and entered the house, intending to put the money given by Zhao Yunlan away, but when she opened it, she didn't seem to match the copper coins inside, and after counting it carefully, she gave half more of the price. Old Lady Feng could only sigh again and again.
After all, Zhao Yunlan was afraid that the old lady would see it for a while, so she deliberately and thoughtfully replaced all the money with copper coins and put them in bulk in the money bag.
Zhao Yunlan and the four of them arrived in Qingshui Town at almost noon, Zhao Yunlan first took Wang and Old Man Li to the shop, the old couple had never come, so they thought that they would just come to see it this time.
Li Mingyi and Li Mingming were busy, and Li Mingmei was checking out at the counter, and there was a small treasure sitting next to her. Li Mingmei lives in the backyard of Buzhuang is too idle, although she has the Wu family's sister to accompany her to talk, Li Mingmei always feels that she is tired of not doing something, so she has to tell Li Mingyi to come to the shop to help.
In order to be able to take care of Xiaobao at any time, he also went to find a circle chair and circled Xiaobao in the chair, but Xiaobao was also well-behaved and did not add to the chaos at all.
Zhao Yunlan went over and picked up Xiaobao, and Xiaobao cried.
"Mother, you're finally back, woo woo~" Xiaobao wiped his snot and tears on Zhao Yunlan.
Zhao Yunlan also thinks about Xiaobao very much, and when she goes out this time, she thinks most about what will happen to Xiaobao at home. Xiaobao hugged Zhao Yunlan and refused to let go, and Zhao Yunlan also let him.
Li Mingli took Wang and Old Man Li to sit on the empty table and wait, just a few people didn't eat lunch, Li Mingyi cooked a bowl of Zhenzi powder for several people.
When Li Mingyi was done, Old Man Li said, "Let's pack up and go home today, and the family will have a good meal in the evening." ”
Lee Mingyi and Lee Mingming responded.
Zhao Yunlan hired this mule cart for a day, and when Zhao Yunlan and the others were having lunch in the shop, Li Mingyi also invited the coachman to come in and eat together, and the coachman was already waiting by the car at this moment.
Li Mingyi and Li Mingli helped Wang and Li Lao get into the car left and right, and the family sat in the small carriage, which looked particularly warm.
In Lijia Village, Li Mingren was trying to burn a fire to cook, and he looked for a fire fold for half an hour, and finally found it, the fire was lit, and it was extinguished after a while, and the whole person was disgraced.
When the fire in the stove stabilized, Li Mingren hurriedly threw the dishes down and stewed them in a mess. But the fire was about to go out again, and Li Mingren stumbled over this meal. Although the vegetables were not cooked, Li Mingren was so hungry that he squatted at the kitchen door and ate without hesitation.
The first time Wang entered the door, he saw a man with messy hair, dark complexion, and dirty clothes squatting at his door, and just wanted Li Mingyi to use a broom to beat people, when he heard: "Mother, Dad, you are finally back." ”
Wang was stunned in place, and in the next second, he rushed over and hugged Li Mingren: "Boss, why does the boss look like this, who bullied you?" ”
Li Mingren: "Mother, it's my son's fault, Dad, I'm wrong, I deserve it." ”
Wang and Old Man Li were confused, why did they start to repent. Zhao Yunlan thought to herself, it should have been like this a long time ago, now, hum~ The matter is not over.
Li Mingyi stepped forward to help Li Mingren up: "Big brother, come into the house and sit down." ”
Li Mingren looked at Zhao Yunlan, who was standing behind, thinking about what to say, but seeing that Zhao Yunlan didn't care, he had to follow Li's side.
The family sat down, and Li Mingren didn't care about eating, so he knelt in front of the second elder: "Dad, mother, it's the child who is not filial, and he can't share his worries for his father, and he has been letting his father and mother work hard for his son's affairs, which hurts his body." ”
Wang's eyes were full of tears: "Hurry up, hey, get up and sit." ”
Old man Li stepped forward and patted Li Mingren on the shoulder, "Boss~"
Li Mingyi pulled Li Mingren up, and Li Mingren continued: "Younger brothers, little sisters, it's all my fault for being the eldest brother, I'm useless, I avoided things when I encountered them, and I didn't set a good example for my younger brothers and sisters." ”
Li Mingli had to be comforted: "Brother, I don't blame you, if we were replaced, we might be like this." ”
Li Mingren still admitted his mistake, and turned his head to look at Zhao Yunlan: "Lady, I can't stand you." I didn't do a good job as a father, I didn't do a good job as a father. ”
Zhao Yunlan nodded and didn't say anything.
Li Mingren couldn't help but feel a little nervous when he looked at Zhao Yunlan's attitude.
Li Mingren had no choice but to continue: "After this time to serve in labor, I ...... it."
Wang was surprised: "Serve as labor!" You've gone to the Clear Water River. You're off to work! ”
Li Mingren: "Mother, yes, my father came back at that time, and we need to change someone over there, I..."
Zhao Yunlan: "Mother, I asked my husband to go, I just want to ......"
Li Mingren: "Mother, I decided to go by myself, and as their eldest brother, I should have go." ”
Wang: "That's it, just come back well, listen to Yunlan more in the future, don't hold back if you have anything." ”
Li Mingren responded and continued the topic just now: "It was because I went to serve in conscription this time that I saw how stupid I was before. In the past, I drilled the tip of the horns, and I won't be like this in the future, Dad, how is your injury? ”
Old man Li smiled with relief: "Hey, it's much better." Boss, it's good that you understand, this time thanks to Yunlan! ”
Li Mingren also looked at Zhao Yunlan: "Well, thanks to the lady." ”
Zhao Yunlan didn't want to look at Li Mingren's gaze anymore, and turned her head to look at the jade crisp cake that Li Mingli was holding in his hand: "Xianggong, I brought you back the pastries from Fucheng." ”
Li Zhizhi said greedily: "My sister-in-law only brings pastries to my eldest brother, and we don't have any!" ”
Wang pouted: "If you want to eat, you can eat it." ”
Li Mingren took a piece of it one after another, only to listen to one after another: "Gross~"
Zhao Yunlan smiled evilly: "Well, this is for Xianggong, just if you don't eat it, Xianggong must eat." ”
Li Mingren looked at Zhao Yunlan pitifully, and then looked at the Wang family, but no one paid attention to him.
