Early the next morning, as soon as Li Xiangyang and Lin Lan arrived at the department store with Xiaodouzi, He Li said to Li Xiangyang: "Brother Xiangyang, my father came back with a letter and asked you to go to the pig farm quickly." ”

"Good!" Li Xiangyang put the little bean down and said to Lin Lan: "You shouldn't have raised the price for them last time. Now the market is not good, the pig farm is far away from the East Market, if it is not good, the pig farm will be returned, and the pig farm will be raised on the side of the central brigade. ”

Lin Lan nodded: "It's inconvenient over there, if it doesn't work, return it to them." Thinking about it, he admonished, "The strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, you must not act with them." ”

Li Xiangyang smiled: "Don't worry, I won't quarrel with them." ”

The pig farm of the Red Star Brigade is a little far from Dongshi, and it is also three or four hours away by bicycle, Li Xiangyang rested twice on the road, and arrived at the pig farm built in the col of the Red Star Brigade at noon.

Since the old captain stepped down last year, the old guy who used to help with pig raising quit his job and went home to help his son take care of the pig farm. Li Xiangyang asked Lao He and his son to come here.

He pushed his bicycle and stood outside the earthen wall, glanced at the collapsed fence wall of the vegetable patch in the doorway, and walked towards the courtyard.

When Wangcai here saw him coming, he cried out affectionately.

Lao He walked out when he heard the sound, and as soon as he saw him, he angrily pointed to the fence wall outside that had been broken down: "Xiangyang, the second-rate son of the Qian family has brought a few laizi to make trouble." The captain came to persuade them, and they said that the captain had accepted our benefits and rented the land to us at a low price. ”

Li Xiangyang frowned and said, "What did the captain say?" ”

He seems to have heard someone say that the newly appointed Captain Yang is the son-in-law of the Qian family, and it is impossible for him to be unjust about this!

"The captain said he didn't care, and he shook his hand and left." Lao He glanced at Li Xiangyang as he spoke, "Qian Shu only restricts us from moving out of here at the end of next month, otherwise we will look good." He also said that if Captain Qian dared to shield us again, they would go to the commune to accuse him of corruption. ”

Li Xiangyang looked at Lao He: "Qian Shucai said that the captain accepted our benefits, so the captain didn't shake his hand and left?" ”

"The captain scolded them for spitting blood, saying that he would never care about it in the future, so he shook his hand and left." When Lao He said this, he looked at Li Xiangyang and said, "You mean they are singing double reeds?" I just gave them a rent increase, this piece is just a piece of mountain, what do they want to do? ”

Li Xiangyang smiled faintly: "They just saw that the market was opened, and they wanted to rob our pig farm to raise pigs and sell them themselves." I still think it's too far away from Dongshi to go back and forth, and I want to return this place to them, since this saves me the trouble of talking, maybe I can find some losses back! ”

He mentally counted the number of pigs in the farm, more than twenty piglets, more than thirty and a half large; Twenty heads are about to be slaughtered, and when they go back, they will ask someone to expand the pigs in the center brigade, and it is just right to pull them over at the end of the month.

Lao He frowned and said, "You mean, give it back to them?" What about those pigs? ”

Li Xiangyang said nonchalantly: "Give it back to them, move to the central brigade, it is close to Dongshi, and it is convenient to take care of it." ”

Lao He nodded: "Okay." I just cooked the rice and you're going to eat it here. Saying that, he glanced at him embarrassedly, "The cowpea porridge and red-billed taro that Erhan and I cooked, I don't know your eating habits, don't you?" ”

Li Xiangyang said with a smile: "Red-billed taro with cowpea porridge is very good." ”

The two of them walked towards the stove room.

The tall and strong He Erhan stood in front of the stove with taro, and when he saw Li Xiangyang coming, he said angrily: "Xiangyang, Qian Laizi is making trouble again, I want to throw him out, but my old man won't throw it away for me." ”

Li Xiangyang: "Listen to Uncle He, if you throw him out and fall out of trouble, what should he do if he relies on you?" ”

He Erhan thought about it: "Hmm! Don't lose it. ”

"Alas!" Lao He smiled and sighed, "He listened to you once you said it, my mouth was dry, and he was still making a fuss about throwing the money tree out." ”

He Erhan looked at him dissatisfied: "I didn't lose it!" ”

"I'm too lazy to talk to you!" Lao He twisted some pickled peppers from the pickle jar, ran out of cowpeas and pickled ginger, and said to Li Xiangyang: "Our grandfather and son are too lazy to cook, only pickled cabbage." ”

"Sauerkraut porridge is just right." Li Xiangyang helped bring the boiled taro to the table, and the three of them sat down to eat.

The cowpea porridge has long been cold, pickled pepper is sour and spicy, pickled ginger is sour and spicy and salty, don't eat too much.

drank a bowl of porridge, took a piece of red-billed taro, peeled it and dipped it in a little pea sauce, the taste of the flour and glutinous flour was not bad.

"The red-billed taro is quite delicious, are they the ones on the edge of our pigsty?"

Lao He smiled: "That's it, I have sent a lot this year, and I have dug some to feed the pigs." In the afternoon, we started digging for artichoke, red and taro. Dig them all up, and don't leave a nest for those turtle sons. ”

Li Xiangyang nodded: "Cut all those ramie seeds, dig up the roots, and transport them back to sell to the pharmacy." ”

Lao He reluctantly said: "It's a pity that most of those trees have been planted." ”

"That's not easy, before leaving, find someone to dig it up, get some grass to wrap the roots, and transport it back to the pig farm over there."

He Erhan drank the porridge in the bowl and looked at the two of them puzzled: "We're leaving?" ”

Li Xiangyang smiled: "Yes, we are leaving, moving back to the pig farm of the central brigade." ”

He Erhan nodded happily: "It's good to go back, the rice cooked by Xiao He Li is delicious." ”

At this time, the barking of the dog was remembered outside the door, and Lao He stood up: "It must be Qian Shucai's dog again, I already knew that Wangcai was released." ”

As soon as the words fell, a black man and three men walked to the door of the stove room, and looked at a few people with a hippie smile on the door: "Yo! Boss Li is here! ”

Li Xiangyang ate the taro slowly, turned his head and looked at the black man lightly: "Qian Shucai, are you in trouble?" ”

Qian Shucai sneered: "Boss Li, what's the point of pretending to be crazy and stupid?" ”

"It's just, I've come here, and I'm still pretending to be crazy there. Hurry up and move out, and at the end of September the farm will be copied to us. The man who followed said smugly.

Lao He said angrily: "You are too unreasonable, there are dozens of pigs in the pig farm, where can we find the pig farm after a month's work?" ”

Qian Shucai looked at Li Xiangyang with a smile: "Who doesn't know that Boss Li's family has a big business, and dozens of pigs are a trivial matter for you!" ”

"You ......" Lao He still wanted to speak, but was stopped by Li Xiangyang raising his hand, he looked at Qian Shucai: "You are here on behalf of the Red Star Brigade?" ”

Qian Shucai: "Yes, the team agreed to lease this piece to us." ”

Li Xiangyang said unhurriedly: "Since you are here on behalf of the Red Star Brigade, you should know that we still have a three-and-a-half-year lease, and if you give us what you should pay, I will move immediately." ”

Qian Shucai glanced at each other and said arrogantly: "The contract is none of our business, you go to the captain yourself!" ”

Li Xiangyang said lightly: "Since you can't afford to compensate us for our losses, then according to the contract, I will return it to you as soon as the time comes." ”
