106 Chung Yeung Festival
Li Manjun raised his hand and gave Li Jianjun a burst of chestnuts, "Don't make trouble, little brat, drink your drink." ”
"That's it, little brat." Li Lijun followed up and said a word, so angry that Li Jianjun wanted to beat her, and the sister and brother were going to fight again.
"Li Lijun, who do you think you are, don't you just go to high school, you think you are an adult!"
Li Dawei said to Zhao Yong with a smile: "These two sisters and brothers are now in one place, and without their noisy noise, Manjun and my mother feel unaccustomed." ”
Wang Xiaojuan shouted with a smile in the kitchen: "Lijun, let me have a little brother, and you will fight as soon as you come back, you two were enemies in your last life!" ”
Li Lijun rolled her eyes, "Why do you want me to let him, he looks taller than me, lady first, he should let me!" ”
Li Manjun put down everything and went into the kitchen to give Wang Xiaojuan a hand, and by the way, blocked her mother's eccentric mouth.
Wang Xiaojuan knew what level she was cooking, and she didn't expect her to do anything, besides, the work in the kitchen had already been done, so she let her stand next to her and talk to her.
Chatting and chatting, mentioning her hometown, Wang Xiaojuan hurriedly glanced at the living room, saw that Li Dawei and her son-in-law were talking and didn't pay attention, turned around and said to Li Manjun: "The village is going to have food." ”
Li Manjun looked at his mother puzzled, what happened to Shangliang?
After the autumn harvest every year, the peasants have to send the grain to be handed over to the grain bureau according to the quota, which is equivalent to a grain tax.
This situation has continued from ancient times to the present, and it was not until 2006 that the state announced the abolition of grain taxes, and farmers did not need to pay grain.
Li Dalong's family planted all the fields in his hometown, and they had to feed grain every year, relying on people's backs and cows to pull them, but later Li Daniu had a tractor, and the old Li family was always the first in the village to hand over all the grain.
Wang Xiaojuan saw her daughter's stupid appearance and reminded her to listen to what his father said for a while.
"Anyway, no matter what your dad says, you are not allowed to hear it, right?" Wang Xiaojuan told me uneasily.
In the matter of treating relatives in his hometown, the front of the mother and daughter is unified, Wang Xiaojuan said so, Li Manjun guessed that there must be no good thing, and nodded.
"Almost, you take out the power off the rice cooker." Wang Xiaojuan instructed Li Manjun while shouting to Li Lijun, who was fighting in the courtyard: "Come in and get the dishes and chopsticks, and prepare to eat." ”
Li Lijun slapped Li Jianjun on the arm, "You go." ”
Li Jianjun glared at his sister angrily, "Let's go!" ”
Together, Li Manjun snorted at him, and the two rushed into the kitchen through a door.
"Be careful not to drop my bowl!" Wang Xiaojuan didn't have the air to remind.
Chickens and ducks are indispensable for festivals, Wang Xiaojuan stewed a chicken, and fried a spicy duck with blood sauce, with two stir-fried vegetables and two cold dishes, just six people to eat, very hearty.
Li Manjun's sister and brother are all heavy tastes, and they eat the duck, and this time, Li Manjun has an extra duck leg in his bowl.
It was Wang Xiaojuan who sandwiched it, two duck legs, one for her and Li Lijun, and the remaining two duck claws, both of which were given to Li Jianjun.
Because Li Jianjun likes to nibble on duck claws the most.
Li Lijun didn't feel anything, in the past, whenever she had two legs, she had one, and if she didn't give it, she would make trouble, Wang Xiaojuan and Li Dawei were afraid that she would make trouble, even if she was not there, she would leave one extra leg to her.
But in Li Manjun's memory, she only eats wings, and has nothing to do with preferences.
Li Manjun looked at the duck leg in the bowl, glanced at Wang Xiaojuan with a little surprise, and she smiled at her, "Eat, don't you like to eat duck legs the most?" ”
Li Manjun was a little flattered, and then there was a trace of bitterness in his heart, not knowing whether it was the feeling that belonged to her or the residual emotions of the original body.
It turned out that her parents knew that she liked to eat duck legs, but they had never kept them for her before.
"Do you want chicken soup? Mom's chicken soup is much better than mine. Zhao Yong asked on the side, he sensed his wife's emotions, although he didn't know why, but he looked a little absent-minded.
Li Manjun nodded, and Zhao Yong immediately took an empty bowl and put a bowl in front of her, "It's still a little hot, drink it cool." ”
"Thank you." Li Manjun smiled at him, she was fine, she was just a little surprised by her mother's change.
Seeing this, Zhao Yong relieved himself and picked up the teacup to accompany Li Dawei to drink.
Drinking and drinking, Li Dawei suddenly asked, "Xiao Yong, are you free in two days?"
Zhao Yong asked suspiciously: "Dad, is there something wrong?" ”
Wang Xiaojuan gave her eldest daughter a chopstick cold dish and gave her a look, and Li Manjun's ears immediately stood up.
Li Dawei seemed a little embarrassed to say, first talked about the grain harvest in his hometown this year, and then talked about the fact that he and Wang Xiaojuan were busy with work and looking after the autumn harvest, and they couldn't go back to their hometown to help harvest rice.
Finally, the matter of the grain was mentioned.
"Your uncle's family is a big cow and a calf two male babies, the calf is still small, the big cow is now taking over the job, these days are not at home, to pull goods for people, there are two old people at home, this food thing, just your uncle alone, there is no tractor, just rely on people's backs then I don't know how many days to delay."
Li Dawei glanced at Zhao Yong, Zhao Yong picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, he understood, his father-in-law should have wanted him to help with the food, and the truck was pulled, and it was only a morning's work.
Zhao Yong felt that there was no problem, this kind of small favor would not affect anything.
Turning his head to look at Li Manjun, Li Manjun said with a smile: "You also have to charge fifty yuan for pulling goods, but since it is an uncle's family, you can charge twenty yuan." ”
Li Dawei glared at her helplessly, "Your uncle, do you still want to collect money?" Just a small favor. ”
"It's just a trivial matter, so why don't they let Big Niu Ge pull it with a tractor?" Obviously, Li Daniu also has a tractor, isn't it more convenient to find his son than to find a son-in-law?
Li Dawei: "It's not that Da Niu can't spare time, your uncle is not lying, Da Niu is really not at home these days." ”
Li Manjun also wanted to say that Zhao Yong hurriedly stopped it, this is just a trivial matter, and it is not good to argue with the elders.
"Dad, then can you tell Uncle and see if it's okay the next morning? I should be free the morning after tomorrow and finish it in the morning. ”
Li Manjun hurriedly asked Li Dawei: "Does anyone give it a bag?" ”
Li Dawei said that the people in the village would help, looked at Zhao Yong and smiled with satisfaction, served him vegetables, and asked him to eat more, he got up and immediately went to call Li Dalong and inform him of the time.
Wang Xiaojuan stared at the back of her husband on the phone and glanced at him.
turned his head and glared at Li Manjun again, saying that if he didn't agree, why did he still agree?
Li Manjun helplessly supported his forehead, looked sideways at Zhao Yong, Zhao Yong hurriedly explained in a low voice, "The old man has a good face, and it is even more so in the village, and he doesn't delay any effort." ”
"They don't thank you for that." She just knows that if she helps these people, people will take it for granted, and if she can't do it well, she will complain, so she doesn't want to deal with them.
Actually, it's not about asking for money or anything, but a word of thanks always has to be said, right?
"For so many years, not a single bag of grain at home has ever been delivered to our home, and every year I have to buy fertilizer for spring ploughing, so I know to look for you!"
As soon as Li Dawei finished making the phone call, Wang Xiaojuan's voice appeared, and Li Dawei laughed and said, "I know that you are the most angry, so I dare to agree." ”
Wang Xiaojuan glanced at him, too lazy to say, and greeted her son-in-law, "Xiaoyong, eat more." ”
Zhao Yong smiled and nodded, and served his wife with vegetables, "You can also eat more, don't worry, no one can take advantage of your husband in vain, you see." ”
Li Manjun raised his eyebrows suspiciously, what does this mean?
