Dashan Orchard 1988

Chapter 115 Brother Shepherd, you are dishonest

Li Muyang hid the rabbit in the vegetable field in advance.

It wasn't that he was reluctant to give the rabbit to the Xue family's sister-in-law, but he didn't want the Xue family's sister-in-law to know what he was doing so soon.

On weekdays, except for children who occasionally go to Taoshan East Peak, adults generally do not go there.

As the grass continued to grow taller, the children gradually became too lazy to go.

Every child is warned countless times by his parents when he is very young that there will be a monster called "Old Boy" hidden in the thick weeds in summer, which specializes in eating children.

Especially good-looking children.

In summer and autumn, when the crops and grass grow very high, there are green gauze tents everywhere, and children will hide in them and get ready to move.

In order to convince their children, parents even gave some practical examples.

For example, so-and-so’s family originally had six children, but because they were disobedient, the children took away two of them every year, and now they only have two children left.

Or they always take a few very ugly and even pitiful people in the village as counter-examples, telling them that these people's disabilities are because they were too ugly, so their ears were eaten by children, etc...

Under this kind of warning day after day, children will have an instinctive fear of dense weeds and crops.

"Yangwazi is back?"

The Xue family's sister-in-law had a bad look in her eyes. Li Muyang was already standing in front of her, so she squinted her eyes for a long time and recognized him.

"Brother, you just came back. My sister-in-law is waiting for your boss to meet, and she said she has good news to tell you."

"What good news?"

Li Muyang had already made a guess in his mind, but he still had to remain reserved for a moment in front of others.

"You really don't know?"

Unexpectedly, the Xue family's sister-in-law looked like someone who had come before and asked with a smile.

Li Muyang had no choice but to smile and say, "Is there a reply over there?"

"Isn't that right? You are extremely lucky. That Xiuli said she is very satisfied with you."

"That's good."

"That's good?" Sister-in-law of the Xue family looked at Li Muyang with a smile, "I remember that you were not so steady when you came back from the blind date that day."

"Haha~"

Li Muyang, who was exposed, rubbed his head and sat down on the horse, "Then... did you make any demands over there?"

"There are definitely requirements, but they are not high. I have told them about your situation before. I heard that you also told Xiuli. The old man over there is also a very open-minded person. It is normal to say, wait a minute. …”

Sister-in-law of the Xue family said, taking out a piece of kraft paper folded into a square from her pocket.

"Here, it's all recorded here."

Li Muyang took it and opened it:

'"The gift is 280 yuan"

"A moped."

"A Little Bee sewing machine."

"Three new houses."

"..."

Next are some basic requirements, the most important of which are the first few big items.

Strictly speaking, this requirement is relatively low.

Not to mention the three major items, when newlyweds come here, they usually need at least a new house to use as their wedding room. In this era, it was called "honey house kiln", and its symbolic meaning can be seen from its literal meaning.

Letting new people come in and live in the old house is a bit difficult no matter what.

But the house is indeed a bit troublesome for Li Muyang now.

The house he lives in now is several years old. It is a bit old for a new house. But if he builds a new house, he will need some funds, which is not something he can think of now.

And it doesn't fit in with his long-term plans.

He is planning to wait until the orchard in Mooshan is almost settled and he has some savings, and then he will plan his yard carefully.

Not to mention it is best to build a whole village, at least it must be a unique courtyard.

In his previous life, he had seen many new rural courtyard styles on his mobile phone, and he had always thought about renovating the courtyard to look like that when he got rich.

I never found the opportunity in my previous life.

It will definitely come true in this life.

It was not his plan to build a few houses hastily and without planning.

But what~
Plans are subject to change.

I will come to my father-in-law and have a good talk with my parents-in-law another day, and tell them my plan. If I can get the consent of my two elders, I can postpone the house matter for the time being, and everyone will be happy.

If the second elder is really worried about his daughter marrying a poor man like him, then it doesn't matter if he builds three new tile-roofed houses first.

If it doesn’t work, it will be renovated or renovated when the time comes.

"Yangwazi, take a look at this condition. If it works, I will take you to your door when I have time to say goodbye to Lao Taishan. If nothing unexpected happens, I will settle the matter in a good day."

"I have no problem, these conditions are not high."

"I also think so. If your situation is tight, just work with your brother and the others. If that doesn't work, you can borrow it from anywhere. When your wife gets married and comes home, we can slowly pay it back together.

This life is not just like this, we live it slowly and little by little, everything is provided. The main thing is that people should be united and husband and wife should take care of each other. You said that even if the family has a fortune, the husband and wife are separated and sleep on the same bed, but they think about it. It was a difficult time for the two families to live together. "

Sister-in-law of the Xue family explained to Li Muyang in a serious manner.

"Sister-in-law said it very well, I think so too."

"Okay, go ahead and get busy. I'll pass the message to you here. Look at the time. When will we go to Xialin?"

Li Muyang thought about it, "Let's wait another ten days and a half. In a few days, I will take my mother to the city to see a doctor. She may have to be hospitalized. At least until things stabilize, I can think of visiting her."

"Auntie is going to have a check-up. Can this disease be cured?"

"Always go check it out. If you have a chance, don't miss it."

"Okay, okay, Yangwazi is a filial child. My aunt is lucky enough to have you as her son in her previous life."

Li Muyang smiled and said nothing.

"That's okay. If you say half a month, it's half a month. Then we'll agree on May 25th. What do you think?"

Li Muyang estimated the time and nodded: "I think it will work."

After chatting for a while, he and Li Xiangqin sent the Xue family's sister-in-law out of the alley.

Watching her wandering away, Li Xiangqin sighed: "Look at the body of my sister-in-law of the Xue family. She is already in her 70s and her body is still so strong. Look at my mother, she is not yet 60 years old. Lying on the kang, it’s a matter of life or death.”

"How can this be compared? Human bodies are very different."

"I think Sister-in-law Xue will probably live for seven or eight years, at least past 80 years old."

Li Muyang smiled and pulled open the vegetable patch and pulled the rabbit out.

What are you thinking about being 80 years old? He almost lived to be a hundred years old. He is the record holder of longevity in the village that has never been seen before or since.

People in the village said that this was the Xue family's sister-in-law who helped people act as matchmakers and accumulated a lot of merit. Fu, Xishou and others were members of the same family.

"Hey, where's the rabbit?"

Li Xiangqin looked at the plump rabbit in Li Muyang's hand and was extremely surprised. '

"Caught on the mountain, take it back and deal with it. Let's have a good tooth ceremony as a family."

"This is a good feeling. I haven't eaten hare in many years. I'm so greedy."

Li Xiangqin took the rabbit and looked at it up and down, very happy.

"You have no future. You are such a big person, and a rabbit can make you like this."

"Hmph, brother, you are not greedy. When I cook it tomorrow, you are not allowed to eat it."

"Hehe~"

Li Muyang rolled his eyes and thought that I really didn't want to eat it before, but after being back for so long, the food was indeed bland and there was no taste in my mouth.

"Then I'll deal with the rabbit. If I don't kill it tonight, the rabbit meat will be sour tomorrow."

"Well, thank you for your hard work... Oh, by the way, did Brother Hongyun and the others deliver the cordyceps today?"

"Well, it's been delivered, as well as my sister-in-law's and the others'. I'll brush them again in the evening. There will be more than 160 in total." "Okay."

Although Li Muyang went to the street, the others did not delay the Cordyceps matter.

The output is about the same as usual, but his share is missing.

"Brother, it rained so heavily in the afternoon, where were you hiding?"

"Where else can I hide? I just have to carry it."

"Yeah, be careful if you catch a cold. I'll make you some ginger soup to drink later. Change your clothes and I'll help you wash them tomorrow."

"Oh, thank you for your hard work."

Li Muyang changed his clothes, cleaned himself up and down, and went to his mother's room to chat with her about her partner.

Because his mother is about to go to the city for medical treatment, Li Muyang has made new progress in his marriage plan. He has been in a pretty good mood recently and his energy has improved a lot.

There are no longer as many complaints as before.

Nuannuan fell asleep long ago.

Otherwise, I would definitely have to catch his uncle to talk.

He gently kissed the child's forehead, and was thinking about when his daughter would be born.

His daughter Li Jing was pink and tender when she was a child, and she was loved by everyone.

In so many villages around, I have never seen a few children cuter than Li Jing.

This is not a boast of one's own child, but one who has earned a reputation for being cute.

Moreover, Li Jing was the first student in the village to be admitted to high school and university, and was a key university student.

Also... the first master's degree, the first doctoral student.

Li Muyang himself has no future, but all of his children are outstanding.

He has no culture and cannot impart much knowledge to his children. He can only talk to them about how to behave and how to be a good person.

It's more about providing a good example.

He repeatedly told the children that people must be successful, but more important than being successful is to be an upright person.

The children are very sensible, and this is what he is most proud of.
.
In the next two days, Li Muyang still dug Cordyceps with everyone during the day.

Go to the plains at night.

In other words, he has more energy than the average person, or else he really can't stand it.

No matter how strong the cow is, it needs to rest.

In fact, there is no need to be so hasty on flat ground. It is not too late to do it slowly after a few days when the cordyceps are completely gone.

Anyway, he has enough money for a while.

But he just couldn't rest.

If I don't release all my energy, I won't be able to sleep well at night.

Visible to the naked eye, the mountain path of the East Peak is extending forward little by little.

This is still the first step. After Li Muyang plans to repair the dirt road, he will also lay a layer of gravel on it.

If it is just a dirt road, it will be all muddy when it rains, and it will not be easy to bear heavier loads.

It would be much better if it was paved with stones.

When the time comes, call a tractor or two oxen to pull the stone roller and grind it, and it will be roughly usable.

On the evening of May [-]th, after Li Muyang finished his meal, he went to build a mountain road as usual. As soon as he walked out of the path in front of his house, he saw Li Fafa coming towards him. When he saw him, he shouted with some displeasure: "Muyang, you Will you be free here?"

When Li Muyang saw Li Fafa and the expression on his face, he could probably guess what he wanted to do.

This was also something that was expected before.

He smiled and said: "I'm getting ready to go to the fields. What's going on, Brother Development?"

"Wait to go to the fields, my brother has something to do with you."

"Brother Jianshe?"

"Ah."

"Okay, then you go back first and I'll go change my clothes."

"Then hurry up."

Li Chengfeng's attitude was very indifferent, and it seemed that he was suppressing some emotions.

A look of displeasure.

Li Muyang pretended not to see it and turned back to change clothes.

Li Fafa left alone.

"Brother, didn't you go to the mountains? Why are you back again?"

"Oh, the village chief said he has something to do with me. I'll stop by their house."

"Why is the village chief looking for you for no reason?"

"Maybe it's to take care of Momoyama."

Li Muyang left home and went straight to Li Jianshe's house.

After knocking on the door, it was Li Fangfa who opened the door.

When Li Muyang entered, he closed the door and inserted the latch.

Follow Li Muyang.

As if worried that he would run away.

Li Muyang remained calm and pretended to be fine.

If he can't handle such a small scene, he doesn't expect to be able to do other big things in the future.

"Are you in the main room?"

"Yes."

"it is good."

Li Muyang entered the main room and saw Li Jianshe and Li Tuanjie in the room. Both of them looked a little unhappy, as if someone had pulled out his uncle's carrot.

Li Muyang continues to be as steady as an old dog.

If the other party didn't tell the truth, he didn't bother to say anything.

"Brother Jianshe, do you want to see me if you have something to do?"

Li Jianshe picked up the teacup and took a slow sip. He glanced at Li Muyang across the teacup and said with a smile: "Brother Muyang, I found that you are dishonest!"

"This... where did you start?"

Li Muyang smiled, very innocently.

"Suppose, brother, you don't know me anymore. If I'm not honest, then I'm afraid there won't be many honest people in this village, right?"

"Humph!"

Li Tuanjie stood next to him and sneered: "Honest people don't say they are honest."

"This is really an injustice to me. We can go to the village and ask, who doesn't know that I, Li Muyang, am an honest person..."

"You still..." Li Tuanjie's expression became even worse.

"What on earth do you want to do with me? Don't play riddles for me in the middle of the night."

Li Muyang also suppressed his smile and sat casually on the sofa next to him.

"In addition to being an honest person, I am also a straightforward person. We can talk about things when we have something to do. There is no need to be arrogant. We are all members of the same clan and know each other well. What should we test?"

This is Li Muyang's rare black face.

He actually knew in his heart what Li Jianshe wanted to do with him, so he was mentally prepared in advance.

It’s nothing more than Cordyceps.

Since he chose to cut off his hair in the first place, such a scene was destined to happen. How could he not be prepared?
