Rebirth 1983: Murakami's Wife Wants a Divorce

Chapter 42 Prodigal Son

After eating and drinking, Liu Ye came to the backyard and saw Li Cuiyu washing clothes by the press water machine.

There are not many farmers in the Liangtoutang production team who can use the water press.Most people go to the well to fetch water to drink, and go to the stream to wash and bathe.

At this time, what Liu Ye saw was not a water press, but Li Cuiyu sitting on the bench, in front of him was a large wooden footbasin, which was filled with clean water.

"Wife, where did they go?"

"Who?"

"Of course they are family members. Our father, our mother, two babies, and the uncle, the second uncle, the eldest aunt, the second uncle, the second aunt...Why are there only two of us in the family?"

Li Cuiyu said coquettishly: "You have the face to say it? My father told you to sleep a little longer. You went to the county town yesterday and slept like a dead pig. Father won't let everyone wake you up."

"Oh. I didn't expect my father-in-law to care about me."

Liu Ye couldn't help feeling a little emotional.

Li Cuiyu: "My mother took Huahua and Linlin to pull weeds in the vegetable field. These two little scoundrels are getting less and less close to me, and there are endless snacks with my grandma. It's really annoying. Help me get rid of it together." After drying the clothes, we will go to Grandma Shan's house together."

"it is good."

When the young couple were drying clothes on bamboo poles in the yard, Li Cuiyu asked with concern: "Husband, is there enough food in the pot?"

"I'm full. I'm thinking about how to teach my uncle and second uncle how to get rich."

Li Cuiyu was a little stunned, and asked back: "This is the ability of our family to earn a living, how can you give up? Even if you are willing, I still don't!"

Five consecutive crossbows, self-made "three-step down" anesthetics, and channels for selling wild game... Once these channels are handed over to Li Yugang and Li Yutie, for Liu Ye, it is tantamount to cutting off the road.

"I disagree!"

Li Cuiyu gritted her teeth, and said four words that shocked Liu Ye, who was very shocked.

"why?"

Liu Ye asked.

Li Cuiyu: "My elder brother, my elder brother, my sister-in-law and my sister-in-law treat me well. According to common sense, there is nothing wrong with teaching them how to make a fortune. But your situation is different. You are a failed student in the college entrance examination, and you are not willing to go to university. Farming. Even if you have the ability to catch wild game, I’m afraid you learned it from books. Without this ability, where would our family of four drink the northwest wind?”

Liu Ye asked, "Xiaocui, do you have any other reasons?"

"No! There is only one reason for me. I don't want to go around borrowing rice and grain anymore. I don't want to eat after dinner! Do you know why the two uncles treat you badly? It's not because you have no money. If you If you have money, maybe they will still be willing to carry your shoes for you?"

Hearing this, Liu Ye couldn't help laughing.My wife is smart and beautiful, and she has already caught up with Liu Ye in everything she can think of.

Liu Ye said: "Xiaocui, to tell you the truth, I really thought so, and asked my uncle and uncle to carry the shoes for me. If I can't lift the shoes well, I will fire them."

Li Cuiyu asked in a daze, "What do you mean by being fired?"

Liu Ye: "It's the same as a school teacher expelling students, driving bad students out of school."

Li Cuiyu still didn't understand, she shook her head blankly.

Liu Ye stretched out his hand and scratched her Qiongsuan, and said with a smile: "You are right if you don't understand. Anyway, your task is simple, just help me manage money, and be my money jar. You can also be called the financial supervisor."

Liu Ye randomly picked up a few terms from later generations, which directly made Li Cuiyu dizzy.

Can't figure it out, just don't want to.After drying the clothes, Liu Ye rolled out the semi-new and old [-]th.Uncle Li Yugang came back carrying a load of dung buckets.

It turned out that taking advantage of the cool weather in the morning, Li Yugang fertilized the eggplants, peppers and other vegetables in the vegetable field early in the morning, hoping that there would be a good harvest in autumn.

"Liu Ye, you slept soundly. I have been working for more than three hours, and you are only going out now."

Li Yugang gave Liu Ye a blank look, and babbled with some dissatisfaction.

"I feel sorry for my sister. There are so many good men. Why did you marry a nerd like you, who couldn't get into college and didn't want to farm?"

Li Yugang put the excrement bucket in the utility room, but still refused to let Liu Ye go.

If it wasn't for Li Taishan and Li Cuiyu's face, Liu Ye would have lost his temper.

Thinking that Li Yugang and Li Yutie still needed to complete the task of building a new house, Liu Ye apologized and said with a smile: "Uncle, you have worked hard. I will let Xiaocui pay off the wages you do for me. Don't worry, although I can't pass the university entrance examination, people The product is not bad."

"you you?"

Li Yugang was so angry that he was speechless for a while.

The last time he and Li Yutie helped Liu Ye with farm work for a few days, Li Cuiyu paid them 20 yuan each, which is really not low.

Just when Li Yugang was blushing with anger, Li Cuiyu's voice came from the room: "Liu Ye, wait a moment, help me carry something."

Li Cuiyu washed her face with well water, wiped off the sweat, and went into the house to bring a bag of apples, a bag of oranges, two catties of white sugar, and two catties of brown sugar.

Liu Ye was secretly surprised, since Li Cuiyu's money was a little more generous, she was quite generous in her actions.

"Liu Ye, you ride the bike, and I sit in the back."

From Ertoutang to Yanziao, it is only three miles on foot.Riding a bicycle for such a short distance is not only for speed, but also for showing off.

Li Yugang's angry voice came from behind: "Stinky boy, eat and drink all day long, I just want to see what will happen to your ruined family! How could the old Liu family have such a prodigal son like you!"

Liu Ye heard it clearly, and asked, "Honey, did you hear uncle scolding us?"

Li Cuiyu smiled proudly: "He scolded him. We live in our own. Everyone has his own home. Don't be as knowledgeable as him. In the morning, my father asked him to gather some labor to prepare for the eighth day of August. Time to start work on our new house."

"Dad really said that?"

"I heard it with my own ears, is it still fake? This auspicious day was determined by Mr. Yang Sanbao, the most famous feng shui master in Raozhou County."

Li Cuiyu said proudly.

While riding his bicycle, Liu Ye said, "I haven't gotten the approval slip for buying fir trees yet."

Li Cuiyu: "The approval can be done slowly, the auspicious day can't wait."

The intimate appearance of the young couple attracted strange eyes from the villagers.

Liu Haitao was carrying a load of cow dung, panting from exhaustion, and still did not forget to sarcastically say: "Liu Ye, didn't the bicycle you got married pay off your gambling debt? When did you buy a second-hand one?"
