126 Second Uncle is kind
During the meal, the second uncle asked Li Changhui about his future plans, and even took the initiative to say that if Li Changhui was willing, he could find him a job in a nursing home or something like that, and the salary was not low, and he could stay in the county seat.
After all, Li Changhui has been in the army for ten years, and being able to come back safely is enough to show that his military strength is not bad.
Listening to Li Yu boasting that his father is super good at hunting, he feels even more that he should not stay in Xiang'an Village to farm.
It's a pity that Li Changhui refused, he felt that life was very good now, saying that he was farming in the village, but it was not all farming, and his life was not poor, and he was even very comfortable.
For the past 20 years, he has been abiding by various rules, and he likes the current life very much.
Lin He is also not happy, working for others, even if it is a nursing home, he is also restrained by the master's family, not to mention that there is no freedom, it is better to make money at home faster.
Not to mention anything else, Li Changhui has been hunting a few times before and after, and he has to work as a nurse for several years, okay?
Fortunately, the second uncle only suggested, and seeing that the two of them were unwilling, he learned that Li Changhui could even catch a wild boar, and knew that they were not short of money, so he did not persuade them.
However, when it comes to the little wild boar, the second uncle is a little moved.
"Changhui, how many little wild boars do you have in your family, wait until the Chinese New Year, it's good to leave one for the second uncle, don't worry, the second uncle won't let you suffer, and you can have as many as you want."
Wild boars are not very rare, but they are not very common.
Lin He grabbed ahead of Li Changhui: "This is no problem, but second uncle, the wild boar grows slowly, I am afraid that by the time of the Chinese New Year this year, the wild boar will still be small." ”
The few at home, don't look at the lively ones, the destructive power is quite strong, but in fact, they are only about ten catties, and it is estimated that it is difficult to raise a hundred catties until the New Year.
Li Changhui also followed: "Second Uncle wants to give away wild meat? ”
Although he is in charge, during the Chinese New Year, he can get a lot of rewards for getting some good things for the owner, or the owner is happy, and the manager is more free to do things, which is a good thing no matter how you look at it.
Li Yongjian nodded: "I won't hide it from you, the owner wants to find a chance to go to Fuzhou, there is an official in Fuzhou who likes game, but things that are too ordinary can't get into his eyes." ”
If you can please the old man, it will be much easier for the Liu family to enter Fuzhou, and the stewards below will also be a lot more polished.
"In Fuzhou, there should be a lot of game, right?" How can it be strange to have a wild boar?
Li Yongjian said with a smile: "You don't understand this, there is no shortage of game in Fuzhou, but there are many rich people in Fuzhou, and it is not easy to buy a whole wild boar, especially a live wild boar." ”
No wonder.
Li Changhui thought for a while: "Then pull a wild boar over at that time." ”
Li Yongjian hurriedly said: "If Changhui can hunt some strange prey, and let people send it, the second uncle promises not to treat you badly." ”
Li Changhui naturally responded.
After lunch, a few people went to the second uncle's house, and Li Yongjian even specially asked someone to send a message back to the oil mill, and then went home with them, and sat for a while before leaving.
When I left the second uncle's house, it was already night, and the dinner was still made by the second aunt and the eldest daughter-in-law, and Lin He also went to help.
In the evening, the eldest of the second uncle's family also came back, but he didn't expect that he was still a master in a primary school, who seemed to be polite and very talkative, and pulled Li Changhui to ask together.
Even Qi'er's cousin, who was still embarrassed by HSBC, came over to listen.
It seems that men, women, and children are very interested in the affairs of the border war.
Li Changhui naturally picked what he could say, even if he didn't join the army now, there were some things that he couldn't talk nonsense.
That's why they talked so late.
Even when he knew that they would be home early tomorrow morning, he held on for a long time.
However, this is a scheduled itinerary, not to mention that the taro at home still has to be guarded, and now it is all handed over to the three brothers of the uncle's family.
Next, I have to plant seedlings and sweet potatoes, and there are a lot of things in the field, but I don't have time to play more.
After leaving the second uncle's house, Lin He asked him curiously: "The restaurant where we ate today seems to be the Liu family, and the steward also knows the second uncle, why don't you tell the second uncle about taro?" ”
When they left after eating, the steward greeted the second uncle.
From this point of view, the development of the Liu family in Nanzhi County is really good.
Many industries are involved, and it is no wonder that they want to develop in Fuzhou.
However, Lin He was curious about why Li Changhui didn't say anything about taro.
Anyway, the Liu family has a restaurant, if you take taro to Fuzhou, you must be able to gain a firm foothold in a short time, as for the future, it depends on the Liu family's own.
Taro can be used as a stepping stone, a stepping stone that can be left behind.
But Li Changhui did not say.
As for Lin He herself, although the second uncle had a good attitude towards her, he only treated her as Li Changhui's daughter-in-law, and didn't pay too much attention to it, and she wouldn't be stupid enough to show off.
However, Li Changhui shook his head: "This matter has nothing to do with the second uncle, the second uncle manages the grain village and the oil mill, and the restaurant is taken care of by other stewards." ”
"And the matter of taro should soon spread to the county, and then naturally someone will go to Yonghe Town to inquire, if the steward of the Liu family comes, we only need to talk about business normally."
If it is through the second uncle, it will indeed allow the second uncle to get a decent place in the Liu family, but it will not be beneficial for their interests.
Maybe even because they are all acquaintances, come to a preferential price or something.
So Li Changhui only promised to hunt, and the rest was silent.
When Lin He heard him say this, after thinking about it a little more, he understood Li Changhui's concerns, so he didn't ask any more.
When they returned to the inn, it was just time for curfew, Li Changhui told Xiao Er to help them feed the horses, and sent hot water upstairs, so that they would have a good night's rest tonight, and they would leave for home early tomorrow morning.
Just as he was about to go upstairs, another junior who was cleaning the lobby hurriedly ran over.
"Two guests, someone brought something over this afternoon, saying that it was for the two of you to bring home, and I asked someone to put it in your room."
"Got something?"
"Yes, the man said of a customer with a scar on his face, and a lady and three children, and I think it's just you in the store now."
Lin He pondered: "It can't be the second aunt who sent it, right?" ”
Xiao Er nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, it seems that it was sent by the uncles and aunts of the two guests, and you asked you to bring it back to the elders of the family." ”
Li Changhui nodded: "Okay, we know." ”
Lin He walked upstairs quickly with the two children: "The second aunt is too polite, she entertained us all day, why did she give gifts." ”
It is estimated that they are afraid that they will not accept it, so they specially sent it to the inn.
Looking back, it seems that they did ask which inn they stayed in.
It was strange at the time, but it turned out to be this reason.
