Chapter Eighty-Five: Unwillingness
Deng Yong's house can be seen along the road down, and it only takes about a quarter of an hour to walk.
"Huh, hey, you two!" Deng Yong chased after the Li family brothers.
Yes, the two brothers didn't speak all the way, and the two of them puffed up their breath and walked past the door of Deng Yong's house. Deng Yong watched in the yard as the two young men led the ox cart and floated past him, and he didn't react for a while.
But according to what Second Uncle Xu said, those two debt collectors should have almost come here! Deng Yong looked out, only the two young men who looked like two stunned people, and these two people had never seen them in this area, so he realized that those two people should be the ones that Second Uncle Xu said to collect debts. Deng Yong hurriedly chased after him with a hoe.
When the brothers heard someone shouting behind them, they stopped and looked behind them, only to see a big man rushing over with a hoe, Li Mingren and Li Mingyi were so frightened that they hurriedly hugged each other.
Li Mingren shouted: "Big brother, we have no money, if you want to beat me, don't beat my brother!" ”
Li Mingli also shouted: "This good man, I have money, don't beat my brother, I'll give you money!" ”
Deng Yong was stunned by these two brothers, and hurriedly said, "Why am I beating you two!" I'm here to ask you what you're doing here? ”
Li Mingren hurriedly said: "Big brother, we are here to find a person named Deng Yong. ”
Deng Yong thought about it for a long time, but he didn't know the two people in front of him, and asked, "What are you looking for him, do you know?" ”
Li Mingli: "We don't know each other, we came to ask him to work." ”
As soon as Deng Yong heard this, his feelings were not for debts, but for money, so he put down his hoe: "I am Deng Yong, what are you looking for me to do." ”
When the brothers heard this, they suddenly relaxed, Li Mingren saw that his younger brother was still holding him, and he was disgusted for a while, and quickly pulled his younger brother down.
Li Mingli was stimulated by Li Mingren's actions again: "Boss Li, you can hug me tighter than me just now." ”
Li Mingren was not to be outdone: "I was afraid that you would cry in fear, so I hugged you and gave you a little comfort." ”
Deng Yong watched the two brothers start arguing again, and hurriedly stopped: "You guys stop for a while, and tell me what's the matter with me first, I'm still busy!" I don't have time to spend time with you two. ”
Only then did Li Mingren put away his childish behavior: "Brother Deng, we want to ask you to help plant fruit trees, you see when you are free." ”
When Deng Yong heard this, his eyes moved, it was best to have this kind of fruit tree, so he asked: "Tomorrow, where can I plant it?" ”
Li Mingren said: "Lijia Village, then Brother Deng hurry up and go back and pack up your baggage!" It may take some time. ”
As soon as Deng Yong heard that he was going to live in Lijia Village, he thought about it and returned: "Then forget it, the situation of my family is not very convenient to go out, thank you for your kindness." With that, he turned around and went home.
The two brothers of the Li family were stunned in place, this Deng Yong actually did not agree, Li Mingren hurriedly called Li Mingli and led the ox cart to follow Deng Yong.
As soon as Deng Yong arrived home, Zhang Heru asked: "Xianggong, what's the matter, you are not injured!" ”
Deng Yong said: "It's okay, two young men, ask me to plant trees, but I didn't agree." ”
Zhang Heru: "Why don't you agree, this kind of work is already rare." ”
Deng Yong said: "Hey, in Lijia Village, it's a little far, and I have to go there to live for a while." ”
Zhang Heru could only regret it, thought about it and said, "It's better to go to Xianggong, I can take care of the family." ”
Deng Yong shook his head: "I'm not worried, Da Zhuang is still young, I can't help with the work, you take care of your mother, and you have to take care of Da Zhuang, you were injured before, and now there is another one in your stomach, where can I lose this home." ”
When Zhang Heru heard Deng Yong say this, he could only touch his stomach and sigh in his heart.
Deng Yong's mother, Chen, listened to the conversation between the two on the bed, and could only silently complain about her uncompetitive body.
The two brothers of the Li family followed Deng Yong to the outside of this courtyard, and neither of them knew how to persuade Deng Yong again. The ox cart could only be parked on the side, and the two brothers sat on the cart until the sun went down completely.
Deng Yong's family ate and saw that the two young men outside the courtyard had not left. Li Mingren and Li Mingli didn't dare to leave, for fear that it would be difficult to explain to Zhao Yunlan if things were not done well, after all, they promised to bring people back before they left. In addition, it was dark and it was a mountain road, so the two of them planned to spend the night here.
After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the weather became colder and colder, and there was a cold air at night, Deng Yong saw that the brothers did not plan to leave, so he had to invite the two in, cook a bowl of paste for the brothers, and let the brothers sleep in the room of the second child before. The brothers were grateful to Deng Yong, and saw that Deng Yong was still busy in the middle of the night, and they couldn't bear to continue to ask Deng Yong about his work. The two brothers of the Li family were tired after a day of traveling, and the two fell asleep in the small bed after a while.
Early in the morning of the second day, Deng Yong gave the brothers a bowl of paste, and asked the brothers to go back quickly, he would not leave home for too long, so he could only quit the work of the Li family.
The brothers no longer persuaded them, and when they left, Li Mingli put the twenty wen he picked from Li Mingren on the bed he slept on last night, and added thirty wen himself.
The two of them returned home after a day's journey, and this time the brothers did not quarrel again, after all, the two did not complete the task, and the brothers were very annoyed, and they were depressed when they entered the house.
Old man Li saw that the brothers were so unhappy when they went home and said, "What's the matter, is this family's ground hot feet?" The face collapsed like this. ”
Zhao Yunlan looked at her brother's appearance, guessed that it should have not been done, and stepped forward and asked, "How?" ”
Li Mingren raised his head: "Lady, Deng Yong's family is too bitter, he really can't leave, he doesn't want to live here permanently." ”
Zhao Yunlan nodded: "What is the situation in his family?" ”
Li Mingli said: "His mother is sick, Deng Yong's mother doesn't seem to be in good health, she can't do heavy work, and his child is only one or two years older than Xiaobao, hey~"
Zhao Yunlan knew about it, so she stopped talking and let the brothers eat first.
At night, Zhao Yunlan lay in bed, still feeling unwilling to miss out on talents like this, so she wanted to invite someone again. Turned his head and patted Li Mingren: "Xianggong!" ”
Li Mingren was quite happy, his wife talked to him for the first time. restrained his excitement and obediently agreed: "Lady, what's the matter?" ”
Zhao Yunlan: "Get up early tomorrow, you take me to Xiaoqing Mountain, and we'll go to find Deng Yong again." After speaking, he tucked the quilt for Xiaobao, turned his head and fell asleep.
Li Mingren was stunned, this is the end, is there nothing else to say?
Li Mingren was lost, Xiaobao's little hand snapped, and he greeted Li Mingren's face, Li Mingren had no choice but to put away his lost emotions, take Xiaobao's hand down and continue to sleep.
