slack farmer in the wasteland

Chapter 282 Worry
oh!oh!oh!
With a cock crow, Cang Hai comfortably opened his eyes.Sleeping on his own bed made Cang Hai, who stayed in the hotel for almost a week, feel very comfortable, and he didn't want to get up.

After opening his eyes, he didn't get up, but stared at the roof of his house for a while, and waited for the second cock crow to be heard in his ears, and then he lazily got up from the bed.

Tonight the little girl was sleeping soundly, Cang Hai got up together and found that the little girl was already wrapped in a small quilt, and he squeezed himself against the wall.

After getting up and taking a shower, Cang Hai changed his clothes and stood outside the house, the drowsiness that was originally drowsy was immediately blown away by the breeze.

At this time, the little morning breeze was already feeling cool, and Cang Hai couldn't help shrinking his neck, and cursed: "I'm going, it's cold!"

Shi Wei just came out of her own kiln, and when she heard Cang Hai's words, she immediately interjected, "Since you know it's cold, you don't want to wear more, what's the use of wearing a thick singlet?"

"Wouldn't it be warmer when I start working later?" Cang Hai said, tightening his thick singlet and walking into the kitchen, taking a basket and preparing to go to the vegetable garden.

When they walked halfway, they happened to meet Wu Hui and Ping An who were going uphill. They grabbed the basket and asked Cang Hai what vegetables he wanted, and they went straight to the vegetable garden.

Cang Hai stood on the half slope, looking at his vegetable garden at the bottom of the slope. It was already dark when he came back last night, so he couldn’t see it clearly, but now he saw that his vegetable garden was almost completely covered by white plastic sheds. It is fully occupied, and then look at the vegetable gardens of other houses. Most of the plastic greenhouses have not been half built yet.

With such a good result in a few days, it can be seen that Wu Hui and Pingan must have put in all their efforts, and Cang Hai, who did this job, could not find any faults anyway.

Cang Hai thought for a while but did not return to the kitchen, and continued to walk down the slope, picked out a piece of meat from the water tower, and walked out of the water tower with his hand.

Just out of the door of the water tower, I suddenly saw a middle-aged man in his 40s and [-]s walking towards him.

Cang Hai felt that this person was unfamiliar, and after a closer look, he felt a familiar feeling: "Danbo?"

It was Li Lida's son Li Dan who was walking towards him. Li Dan was one year older than Cang Hai's father, and Cang Hai couldn't remember, but Cang Hai was called Danbo according to his age.

Li Dan looked at Cang Hai carefully, and then smiled all over his face: "Haiwazi, tsk tsk, I haven't seen him for more than ten years, and he looks more energetic."

Seeing Cang Hai, Li Dan took two steps forward, looked at Cang Hai carefully and said.At this moment, Cang Hai has gone through the influence of Shanghai for several years and has lost the rural flavor on his body. He is completely like a young man in the city. If he meets him on the street, Li Dan would not dare to recognize him.

Cang Hai is also looking at Li Dan at this moment. When he left the village, Li Dan still had thick black hair. Now not only is his hair more than half gray, but his spirit is not as sharp as before. Wrinkles began to appear on his face. , the back also slightly began to hunch.It can be seen how heavy the burden of life is and how hard it is to work part-time.

"You look a bit old," Cang Hai said.

Li Dan smiled and said: "Hey, you were in your teens at that time, and you are 27 or [-] now, so I don't look old."

Li Dan's straightforward temperament has not changed much, and he is not angry when he hears Cang Hai say that he is old, so he chats with Cang Hai with a smile.

"What are you going to do this early in the morning?" Cang Hai asked.

Li Dan said: "Go to the water tower to get some beef. I'm going to make some stuffing in the morning and make pot stickers. When it's ready, I'll send it to your house to try?".

Cang Hai was not too polite, and nodded directly in response: "Then I will thank Dan Bo first."

"It's okay, it's just a small matter. Oh, right, Haiwazi, you, Brother Li Qun and Brother Li Wan, and I are going to work in the engineering team. Do you know the people there?" Li Dan asked.

Cang Hai shook his head: "I really don't know him, why are you working in such a hurry?"

Li Dan said: "Brother Li Qun was told about a marriage for you. Girl, we met and she looks pretty good, but you know that there are a lot of gifts for marriage now. I looked at each other twice, and the girl's family proposed I got a gift money of 36 yuan, how can I do it if I don’t earn more…”

Hearing what Li Dan said, Cang Hai was stunned, and asked Li Dan: "36 dowry money? Has the market in the countryside reached this level now?"

"The girl's family looks pretty good. She is tall and slender, about 1.7 meters tall, but she is a little lighter, just over a hundred catties. According to my opinion, this girl is a bit too thin, but not now. Girls with this look are popular, you, Brother Li Qun, fell in love with it at a glance... ".

While Li Dan was talking here, Cang Hai saw two strong young men walking down the slope, and after only one glance at the two men, Cang Hai felt that there seemed to be something wrong with this marriage.

The two boys who came here were not tall, only about 1.6 meters five, strong and solid, not even handsome, and their faces were still simple and honest.No need to ask, it was Li Qun and Li Wan who came.

When he left the village, Cang Hai felt that Li Qun and Li Wan were not bad in size, but now that he was waiting for Cang Hai to come together, he suddenly felt that the two brothers were quite different from what he vaguely remembered.

When Cang Hai saw the appearance of the two, and then thought about the girl's appearance described by Li Danbo, he suddenly felt that there was something tricky in it. According to Li Dan's description, such a tall girl with such a good figure, why should she look at her ugly appearance? Li Qun?

Thinking so in his heart, but Cang Hai was not stupid enough to say it, but greeted Li Qun and Li Wan with a smile on his face.

The four of them chatted for a while, then Cang Hai turned around and went home with the meat in his hands.

Li Dan, father and son were looking at the slope on the Canghai Sea, when Li Qun said: "Big, I heard that Canghai took a lot of money, why don't we ask Canghai for a loan?"

Li Dan glared at his own son: "It's not that I don't want to borrow it, but your father won't let us open our mouths to Cang Hai. Alas, besides, the bride price alone is 36, and the miscellaneous things can't survive without 50." , you borrowed the money here, and your brother will borrow the money in two years, when will the three of us pay back the one million yuan?"

Li Qun thought about it for a while, how could he think of any way, in his mind, he went to work when he had no money, and then saved every penny. As for doing small business or something, Li Qun really thought Yes, I have tried, but there has never been a bloody head without a loss?

There's no way. Master Li Qun's brain is not flexible. He also set up a stall in the night market. He can make money there, and he loses money. Not only does he lose money, but he is also harassed by some hooligans from time to time. In addition to the hooligans, there are also urban management and so on. The longest business has been done for more than half a year, and it will be ruined. Where can I make any money.

Li Wan said: "Isn't the village going to make a lot of money next year? It won't be less than what we earn from working outside for a year."

"It's the village that makes the most of the money. I asked your father last night. Don't think about it," Li Dan said with a sigh.

Thinking of my old man's outburst of temper last night, Li Dan was a little scared. What Li Dan thought was that since the village has money, it's worth several million. Let his old man go out and borrow one or two hundred thousand, who knows? Upon hearing this, his father was like a violent lion, not only refused, but also pointed his finger at Li Dan's nose and scolded him.

Just when the three of them were desperately thinking about money, Cang Hai returned to his kitchen, started cutting meat, and put the cut pieces of meat into the pot to blanch.

Shi Wei was choosing dishes with Ping An and Wu Hui, and she was distracted when she saw Cang Hai standing by the pot, so she opened her mouth and asked, "What are you thinking about early in the morning?"

Cang Hai turned his head to look at Ping An and Wu Hui, and suppressed what he wanted to say. These two are not tight-lipped people. If they find out what he said, go out at that time That's not embarrassing to say the least.

So Cang Hai shook his head at Shi Wei.

After waiting for breakfast, Cang Hai told Shi Wei about his thinking about filtering.

"36 beauties?" Shi Wei was almost taken aback when she heard that.Generally speaking, there are not many marriages here around 20 yuan, and the bride price of 36 yuan is equivalent to the money for ordinary people to marry two daughters-in-law. Although Shi Wei is rich now, she is still surprised by so many bride price gifts. To get married is obviously to empty out a family.

After thinking for a while, Shi Wei asked in a low voice, "Isn't it a liar?"

Marriage cheating is not a matter of two things. Some unscrupulous matchmakers and women specialize in this matter. After negotiating the bride price, after the engagement is made, the girl will not marry directly, and the man will want to cry without tears. Yes, asking for money?At most half of the money will be returned, and you can take the rest of the money slowly.

Because this matter is not uncommon, and even when encountering ruthless people, people are killed directly.

It stands to reason that this matter is easy to solve. Marriage fraud is fraud. If you don’t get married, you can get your money back, but the fact is so strange. As long as the police are serious about their affairs, it will be fine. But everyone knows the attitude of the police. If the officials don't investigate, even if the case is reported, the police will shirk it from time to time, for fear that there will be too many cases in their jurisdiction, and the indicators will be broken.If the law is ignored, it must be resolved by the power of the people. Now the timid ones can only go home and wipe their tears secretly.

Cang Hai said: "I'm also worried about this matter. According to Dan Bo's description, tall and beautiful girls like Li Qun?"

Blind dates and love in the countryside are all nonsense, people and money are met, and a bride price of 36 per mouth, is it ridiculous to talk about love or not? It is more straightforward to talk about money directly.Marriage cheating is not uncommon now, and it has slowly developed into the norm.

"Then what should we do?" Shi Wei asked.

Cang Hai said: "I would like to ask Zhao Changchun and Li Fang about it. After all, they are businessmen, so the sources of information should be wider."

Shi Wei listened and nodded, both of them were nesting in Sijiaping, so the news was naturally not as wide as that of Zhao Changchun, who has been working as a small boss in the town.

"Brother, sister-in-law!"

At this time, a muffled voice came from outside,

Only then did Shi Wei say: "Let's go, go to work, or we are too shameless, go out to play for a few days and throw the work to others, and then come back and be lazy."

Cang Hai smiled and left the room with Shi Wei.

Seeing Cang Hai and Shi Wei leaving the room holding hands, Meng Meng's small face was full of doubts.

"What are you looking at? Let's go to work in the field." Cang Hai picked up Mengmeng with one hand, and Shi Wei picked up the hoe by the wall, carried it on his shoulders, and followed behind Cang Hai. The three said Talking and laughing, he walked down the slope.

The three of them hadn't walked a few steps when they met Li Qun at the intersection, who was holding a small plate full of golden beef potstickers. Tanned and looking very attractive.

"Cang Hai, come and try my big potstickers."

Cang Hai reached out to take it, smiled at Li Qun and said, "Thank you, Brother Qun."

"It's okay, it's okay." Li Qun smiled and waved his hands, put the plate in Cang Hai's hand, then turned and went back.

Cang Hai stretched out his hand to pinch a potsticker and put it in his mouth. After eating it, he said to Shi Wei and Mengmeng, "Try it, it tastes pretty good."

Shi Wei nodded after taking a bite, while Mengmeng kept nodding her head while puffing, praising the deliciousness of the pot stickers.

Cang Hai really didn't expect that Li Dan would have such a hand.
