Chapter 319: Many Sons and Many Blessings
"Boss, it's only been a few days since you came back from governing the country, you just let him go out by himself, don't let people bully him......"
Qinjiazhuang, next to the big wooden table of the Li family, Mother Li, who was sitting on the kang, said uneasily.
Li Yuan smiled: "Mom, the ruler is almost as tall as you, are you still worried about him?" Don't worry, Xiao Liu looked silent and didn't like words, and knew in his heart that he couldn't suffer a loss if his brothers made trouble at home...... Eat vegetables and eat vegetables, the chef I was looking for used to cook Tan family cuisine, but I didn't expect that the older the craftsmanship, the more refined it became. ”
Looking at the three uncles who were obviously a little cramped at the big round table, the eldest sister-in-law smiled and said, "Boss, you can say a few words to the juniors and give them relief." You see how scared Zhao Ning and them......"
Li Yuan shook his head and smiled: "My uncle is a distinguished guest in front of the hall, what am I scaring them for?" I have to be respectful, pour them wine, coax them well, and beg them to be kind to our girls when they go back. When you quarrel, don't do it......"
The Li family's aunt's face was almost colorless, and then Li Mei stood up and sneered: "Eighth uncle! If you do this again, we will get divorced too! ”
The eldest sister-in-law and others hurriedly scolded and scolded, and Li Yuan also added fuel to the fire, and said with a few fingers: "Look, look, don't be angry!" Don't let you say good things, and don't let you say good things. Alas, it's really a girl who got married, and spilled the water. But if you don't want to say it, you have to say it, who made our daughters the most precious? ”
Wu Zhaoning couldn't sit still, picked up his wine glass and stood up and said, "Eighth Uncle, although this is the second time I have seen you, Xiaomei has talked about you countless times in our family. Talk about it once, cry once......"
Li Yuan was surprised: "That's not right, I haven't bullied Xiaomei, it's all picking up Kun'er." You must have made you cry, you did it? ”
After the family laughed, the eldest sister-in-law said angrily: "Listen well, the younger generation is talking." ”
Li Yuan nodded and said, "Let's talk about it...... Although I generally only look at how people do it. ”
Wu Zhaoning's face turned red, the eighth uncle of the Yue family is really powerful, this mouth is like a knife......
He said: "Eighth uncle, then I'll make a long story short." I promise you that Xiaomei will never eat a little grievance at home. If I don't let her suffer, I'm talking nonsense. The child has a headache and brain fever, and she is very hard. Sometimes I'm on a business trip, and it's even harder for her to meet the aftermath. However, I will never let her give birth once, with the thoughts that I regret. ”
Seeing Li Mei's tears in the back, Li Yuan was so angry in his heart, he didn't dare to think about it, when Xiao Qi and Xiao Jiu came back with bastards in the future, would he directly smash them with Bagua Palm......
In a bad mood, Li Yuan stretched out his hand to let Wu Zhaoning sit down, and snorted and said, "How can you live without stumbling?" Our family is not so domineering, and it is not like saying that you should compromise everything. To live, you still have to discuss and go. Just like me and your eighth aunt, how busy she is, let alone home, and she can't take care of her own son.
At first, I also had opinions, and I cleaned up a few times. In the end, she cried and said, "If she doesn't do it, go home and cook and take care of the children......"
Before he finished speaking, the people at the three tables laughed for the most part.
Mother Li stopped looking at her youngest son, and scolded with a smile: "Let you talk well, what are you bragging?" ”
Li Yuan shook the pot: "It's all Xiaomei's fault, Zhaoning is not salty or indifferent, she was moved to tears when she said two words, I didn't let her cry, just let her laugh!" It's not promising, it's infuriating! ”
Li Mei came over and hugged Li Yuan's arm and said coquettishly: "Eighth uncle, you are the best, I know that you love me the most!" ”
"Go, go, go!"
Li Yuan didn't appreciate it and said, "Aren't you afraid that I will pick up your Wu Zhaoning again?" Bring it over, bring it over, they're sitting here, they're not used to it, and it's an eyesore for me to look at. The girl who was raised in her heart is coaxed away like this, what is it called......
Don't say anything now, wait for the Chinese New Year...... Forget it, let's wait until next year's New Year when the whole family has a reunion. ”
Li Mei was pleasantly surprised: "Really? Eighth uncle, next year, Aunt Xiao'e and Brother Tangyuan will all come back for the New Year?! ”
Li Yuan nodded and said: "Yes, I will come back next year, even the three soldiers will call back, I will find a way to have a reunion!" ”
Li Gui was a little excited, and nodded again and again: "Okay, good!" Let Kun'er and them all come back! Let's have a good reunion year! At my age, I don't know how many years I'll live. ”
The family said that the old man should not say this, and the old lady was not happy: "I want to go with you, I haven't lived enough." ”
Li Yuan said with a smile: "It is said that there are many sons and many blessings, and it is not bad to let our family go." The father and mother have hard bones and good pulses. Rest assured, there is still a chance for the New Year! ”
The family members were excited, and Eighteen Li Yuan said: "I will start preparing two months ahead of schedule next year!" Buy the biggest fireworks and set off firecrackers for three days and three nights! Good fellow, my twenty-fourth brother is coming back......"
This time, even his father didn't scold him.
Looking at this longing family, Li Yuan also smiled, the Li family actually has not many opportunities to have a reunion.
In '82, Dong Lao proposed to promote thousands of young cadres, and the Li family's group of children with academic qualifications, work experience, and sufficient achievements were basically unlikely to stay in the oil sector.
At the division level, most of them have left the first-line production and entered the middle management.
There is an extreme shortage of such knowledgeable young cadres throughout the country, and the poorer the place, the greater the shortage.
Moreover, the road paved by Li Yuan for them was also paved too positively, and the ten years were not wasted, and the solid and dazzling achievements laid the height for them to take off.
In the future, after they take up the leadership at all levels, it will be even more difficult for them to have a large-scale reunion.
Needless to say, they will be assigned to the harsh conditions of the Midwest.
What can be tempered by fire is real gold.
At a certain height, Li Yuan is not good at continuing to feed resources, first, there are not so many resources to fill in, and secondly, he is also taboo......
One or two are okay, feed a dozen, that's no different from death, you will only be smart but be smart and mistaken.
So it's better to keep a low profile.
So next year's reunion may be the only one......
……
While the Li family was eating, Li Yuan came out and went to the kitchen.
The two men who were squatting on the firewood pile and eating with mouthfuls full of oil were a little embarrassed when they saw Li Yuan coming in.
Li Yuan also sat down next to the pyre, and said straight to the point: "Uncle He, I know a Hong Kong Island owner, who will soon open a restaurant in Wangfujing, and needs a head chef and a chef." You don't have to say anything about your cooking skills. How's it going, are you interested in trying your hand at making a career? During the internship, the minimum salary is 351 months, 501 months after the regularization, and there is a bonus at the end of the year. At that time, the prize money was estimated to be the big one. ”
He Daqing's eyes were straight, five hundred and one month, that is higher than the salary of a stupid pillar for a year!
If he can earn this money, he still needs to make the dog scolded by his spicy daughter-in-law bloody and lose face?
He Daqing swallowed his saliva and asked urgently, "What is an internship...... It's not a full-time job, is it? How to turn positive? ”
Li Yuan said with a smile: "You have to bring out a team of chefs, and you have to be strict, and if you manage it well, then it will be considered a regular." The bad habit of splitting two portions of a chicken and bringing vegetables home without permission must not be had. There is a word called high salary, 500 yuan salary to buy chickens, you have a chicken a day, you can't eat it from the beginning of the year to the end of the year, do you still need that trick? ”
He Daqing thumped in his chest, stood up and promised: "Dongjia, just look at it!" Don't talk about dismantling the chicken, as long as I'm here, they don't want to go a little bit after the crushed garlic cloves! ”
Li Yuan said with a smile: "The main thing is to do the dishes well." Recruit people, you go to recruit, a few cooks, a few cooks, a few apprentices, you are an expert. You may have to get started at first, and when you bring in talent, you can just point you out. When you can't do it, let Brother Zhuzi come, Brother Zhuzi can't do it, He Dan has also grown, and ensure that your family is prosperous. Brother Zhu has been good to me over the years. The rain is also close to me, and he calls me my brother, so I don't treat your family as an outsider. There is only one, and the others in the courtyard will not be recruited. Don't show me that I'm the owner here. ”
He Daqing laughed and said: "Owner, you are an understanding person!" Those are the best to be a neighborhood, and if you get a little more, you can't do it! ”
When He Daqing and the two of them finished eating the rice in the bowl, Li Yuan was about to give money, He Daqing hurriedly waved his hand and said, "You are ashamed of me!" Owner, you give Lao He's family a golden rice bowl, where can you ask for money to cook for your family? I'll go back first, find some old fellows, and wait for your letter from the owner. ”
After the two left, Li Yuan returned to the north house and drank with a group of nephews.
Today, he wants to put down everything, that is, he wants to use his strength to tell them that if he doesn't have this amount of alcohol, he will drink less outside!
……
"Yo, Lao He is back?"
In the courtyard, Yan Bu Gui Freeze's face turned white, and when he saw He Daqing and He Dan's grandson coming back, they greeted him with a smile as if they had met their relatives.
He Daqing still has the previous decadence and despondency at this moment, his hands behind his back, his eyelids are only half raised, he glanced at Yan Bugui, and said: "Xiao Yan, is there something?" ”
Yan Bugui was stunned, Xiao Yan?!
Where does this come from?
Seeing that he didn't speak, He Daqing snorted in his nose and raised his legs to leave.
Yan Bugui came back to his senses for a moment, didn't care about anything else, and asked, "Brother He, Brother He, I heard that Yuanzi found a job for your grandfather?" ”
Before He Daqing could speak, He Dan said proudly: "Uncle Yuanzi found me and my grandfather a restaurant opened by Hong Kong Island people in Wangfujing, my grandfather is three or five hundred a month, and five hundred is turned into a regular one, and I am not too much off!" ”
Yan Bugui seemed to have been struck by a thunderbolt and hit Tianling Gai'er, and these two numbers almost made him out of his body!
The way of the world!
This world is coming to an end!!
The two stinky cooks can actually make money that can't be held in a big bowl, and then look at him Yan Bugui, who is pure and noble, and he doesn't even have a fraction of other people's money in a month......
Oh, my God~~~~
This is the trilling sound of Yan Bugui's soul!
He Daqing frowned and glanced at his grandson, and said, "Didn't you say it, be low-key." Your mother also said that Lao Tzu didn't leave anything for you, and this craft alone is a mountain of gold. She's a shallow eyelid, and there are times when she regrets it. ”
"Who is this? Old and immortal! ”
The last four words are very light, and probably only a few people can hear them, and they are in a state where they can turn their backs at any time.
But He Daqing was still startled, looked at Zhao Jinyue who came out of the second gate, and said dumbfounded: "Aren't you leaving?" How did you come back again? ”
"Phew!"
Zhao Jinyue scolded: "The first time I saw the old thing that persuaded my son and daughter-in-law to divorce, I didn't leave, I was angry with you!" ”
"Mom! You're really not leaving, huh? That's great! ”
He Dan was overjoyed, ran over and hugged Zhao Jinyue's arm and began to shed tears.
Zhao Jinyue's momentum also softened, and said: "It's not that I can't rest assured that you two puppies and things, I'm leaving, the money earned by your father's dog thing must be mistreated by Yi Zhonghai and this old thing, and you and your sister will starve to death." Look at the wrongful sin your aunt suffered back then! I'm back. Hmph, sure enough, when Yi Zhonghai heard this, he was disappointed. With me, he wants your dad to take care of his dog for him, and wants you to give him and urine, dream! ”
As soon as He Dan was excited, he couldn't control his mouth, and said to Zhao Jinyue: "Mom, Uncle Yuanzi has found a job for grandpa and me, let us be a cook for the big boss of Hong Kong Island in the restaurant opened by Wangfujing, grandpa is the head chef, three hundred and five a month, five hundred after becoming a regular!" The cook, the cook, let the grandfather recruit, my father will come when the grandfather dies, and I will come when my father dies! Grandpa said, this is Uncle Yuanzi's golden rice bowl for our old He family! ”
Zhao Jinyue froze there with a "click", and after a while, she slowly asked, "Really?" ”
He Dan nodded again and again: "Really! Mom, when did Uncle Genzi tell a lie? The second grandfather has always said that although Uncle Yuanzi is bad, his words have always counted. ”
"Ouch, Jin Yue, look at you, what kind of official is Yuanzi's daughter-in-law now, and he still has the heart to tease you?"
Yan Bugui's face turned into a chrysanthemum, and he looked at He Daqing and said, "Brother He, are you still responsible for recruiting people?" Hey, hey, don't kiss my hometown, look at my two sons......"
He Daqing has no way to deal with this stupid grandson, he loves to show off, and he doesn't open the door when he is excited.
He snorted, "Nothing. Even if you recruit people, you only recruit people who know how to cook. Otherwise, if you don't do it well, even I will smash the pot. ”
"To !!"
Zhao Jinyue's eyes were round under the excitement, although the He family was not yet developed, but she couldn't afford to look down on the three masters, she stepped forward to support He Daqing, and shouted in a gentle and obedient tone: "Dad, you are still smart in this matter!" As long as your position is secure, there is hope for our family. No one can hold you back! Let's ignore those stinky toads, let's go home. I'll cut some meat and make dumplings for you in a moment! ”
He Daqing called a diaphragm in his heart, and on the way back, he still thought that when he made a lot of money, he would find a wife first, just a twenty-year-old one, it was really difficult to find, and thirty years younger would make do with it.
And then marry a good son too, at least who can speak human words.
After two years, he will marry his grandson, and the old He family will be considered prosperous.
But who would have thought that unproductive and useless dog son would not even be able to get married.
Now that I know this dog skin plaster, it's a dream to get a divorce.
What is this called?
After the He family returned to the courtyard with "happiness", Yan Bugui, who wore a shabby velvet hat and glasses that looked like a toad, stood alone in the middle of the courtyard, refusing to enter the house no matter how urged by his family.
Somehow a piece of dry wood fell from the ground, Yan Bugui looked up at the earthquake shed above, oh, the piece of wood that poked out was rough......
He bent down to pick it up, and suddenly had a thought in his heart, at this moment, is he like a lonely old eagle, picking up all the cold branches and refusing to perch......
Catching a glimpse of the smile on the face of his second son Yan Jiefang, his heart became colder and colder: Why did you give birth to so many in the first place?
In my mind, there was a faint erhu sound of "Erquan Reflecting the Moon".
Yuanzi, after all, you have lost your three masters......
……
"Goodbye Uncle Qiao, goodbye Aunt Liu, goodbye Sister Xiaoyue."
In the courtyard of the capital, Li Zhiguo said goodbye to the Qiao family in front of the unit building.
After Qiao Yue made an appointment to call Li Zhiguo tomorrow morning, the car drove away, and after turning the corner, Li Zhiguo turned around and went home.
Liu Yuan said to Qiao Xing: "How do you say that this child is raised, why is he so mature and sensible?" ”
Qiao Xing sighed and said, "People are different. The first time I felt this way was when I saw the children of the Bai family that year. At that time, on the National Day, everyone went to the auditorium for dinner. Although Dad is strict with the three of us, he still has a new set of clothes, which he wears during the New Year's Festival. Children of the Bai family...... They were wearing old clothes with patches on their bodies. But I found out that the little guy in the Bai family was different from others, and it was estimated that he was about the same age as the kid who ruled the country at that time. No matter what other people's eyes are, they always look calm, and they don't feel any shame in it. That kind of calmness can't be pretended. When eating, he is also steady, not to mention children of his age, even we were babbling at that time. At that time, I thought to myself...... This man and man are indeed incomparable. ”
Liu Yuan was curious: "Is that one child like this, or are all the children of the Bai family like this?" ”
Qiao Xing smiled: "Just that one, his younger brother is the same as the other children." It's all cultivated like this, so what's the point? ”
Liu Yuan said: "Didn't you say that he still has a big brother who is better at governing the country?" ”
Qiao Xing said meaningfully: "The two of them are not on the same path. However, it is really hard to say who will achieve high and who will be low in the future. Don't look at the Li family is still a rural family now, in the future, it will be amazing! ”
……
"My son is back?"
Li Yuan sat in the living room reading a book with an apron, and after Li Zhiguo entered the house, he asked with a smile, "How is today?" ”
Li Zhiguo said today's events with a smile, skipping Liu Weihong's paragraph, which is not worth mentioning, and finally said: "Grandpa Qiao said, let you go and see him and talk about it when you are free." ”
Li Yuan didn't think about it, so he smiled and said: "This kind of thing, it's better to let your mother come forward, or when you grow up, you can go on my behalf." ”
Li Zhiguo said strangely: "Dad, don't you say that Sister Qiao Yue's grandfather is a respected elder?" Don't you want to get in touch with the Qiao family? ”
Li Yuan shook his head, patted the sofa beside him, and said, "Sit down and say." ”
After Li Zhiguo sat down, Li Yuan said: "Dad's principle is: to be a man, happiness is the most important thing. People live so heavily in just one lifetime.
How can I be happy? Doing what you like, getting along with people you can get along with, and eating what you like to eat is what you are happy about.
Of course, I respect Qiao Lao, and I respect all those old comrades. However, respect does not mean that you enjoy meeting each other. The old man is highly respected, and the rules are also big. You're still young, so it's easier to get in. If Dad went in to visit, he had to go through a lot of inspections, fill out forms, take photos, and sign all kinds of ...... It's troublesome.
Of course, I understand, for the sake of safety, but I still don't want to bother too much.
But you are different from your father, who has no big ambitions, except for doing some medical things, he just wants to live a leisurely life, take care of the lives of your mother and your children, and don't let you be wronged, and it doesn't matter if you have any other fame and wealth.
You're more like your mom, you have your own thoughts at a very young age.
It's also good, it's fun to do what you want to do, and it's a happy choice, isn't it? ”
Li Zhiguo nodded with a smile and said, "Thank you, Dad, I know." ”
It's always so comfortable to talk to my father.
It was the filial piety of the father and the son, the door lock at home rang, Li Yuan said "hey", and said happily: "Mom is back!" ”
The two of them got up, and sure enough, they saw Qin Daxue entering the door in a dusty manner, and when they saw this father and son, they laughed happily.
Li Zhiguo said happily: "Mom is back!" ”
Go pick up a coat for Qin Daxue and put slippers.
Li Yuan also said happily: "My wife is back, I'll give you something to eat!" ”
Qin Daxue felt that she was hopeless, and she was led astray by this bastard in an instant, and he told her this joke......
After glancing at him fiercely, the beautiful eyes smiled again, and scolded with a smile: "Virtue! Go for it! ”
……
Hong Kong Island, Tsing Yi Bridge.
He Pingshi drove the car, glanced at Li Xing, who was holding a thick tome in the passenger seat, and sighed a little distressedly.
The day after accepting Ho Shanheng, Li Xing began to study finance.
They originally studied business administration at HKU, and they already had a lot of homework, plus a finance subject, and the pressure was not ordinary.
The car drove all the way to the Li family manor on Tsing Yi Island, Li Xing was still immersed in books, and He Pingshi was reluctant to disturb him, so he sat quietly in the car and accompanied him.
The moonlight in the sky is charming, and you can see the moonscape of the sea in the distance, and you can be with your beloved, even if it is a little cold in the car, what is it?
It's a pity that the good atmosphere was ruined by a nasty person......
"Sister-in-law, I really didn't bother me on purpose, my mother is worried about you, so I don't dare not come if I have to call!"
Looking at his sister-in-law who was glaring at him angrily, Li Si explained with a wry smile.
He always felt that after this sister-in-law entered the door, his status in the family was instantly lowered by another place.
But seeing He Pingshi taking care of her eldest brother so doting...... Forget it, you can bear with it......
Li Xing raised his head, rubbed his eyes, and said with a smile: "Xiaoshi, it turns out that she has already arrived home, you should call me." It's so cold in the car, don't catch a cold...... You go in first, I'll make you a cup of lemon honey black tea, and go to the cold. ”
When He Pingshi heard this, she smiled like a flower, and said sweetly: "Then I'll go to see Mommy and them first!" ”
Li Xing nodded and smiled: "Go ahead." ”
After He Pingshi left, Li Si saw his eldest brother coming down from the car with a thick stack of books, his face could not hide his tiredness, and said, "Big brother, it's almost done." Are you so tired? ”
Li Xing smiled: "Be less verbose, each has its own way of living." You just think I'm tired, but I think that every time I learn a little more knowledge, I become stronger. Let's go, go inside and give me a massage of my cervical spine, I feel a little stiff...... Later, stand on the stake and read a book. ”
Li Si smiled angrily, took a few books from the eldest brother, and the two brothers entered the house together:
"Mom, we're back!"
Under the moonlit night, the whole world was enveloped in soft moonlight, and even the undulating outlines of the distant mountains became soft.
On the surface of the sea not far away, it seemed that the moonlight was covered with a layer of glittering silver veil, dotted with crystals, like stars.
This month, this sea and this night outlines a fantastic night scene on earth......
