Dashan Orchard 1988

Chapter 125: The moon is dark and the wind is high, exploring the Nangou
"Fifth brother, why are you here today? Are you teaching me a lesson?"

Li Xiangyuan's mood was obviously much better.

His face, which was tight just now, is much more relaxed now.

"That's not true. I actually came here to see you. By the way, if you have time, you can go over and watch our mother with your seventh sister.

No, I just happened to see this happen and I felt it. "

"I don't know yet. The fifth brother is also good at talking about the truth. He can speak better than the eldest brother-in-law."

"Really?"

Li Muyang scratched his head.

The eldest brother-in-law works in the grain bureau in the next county and is a moderate leader.

He is actually quite nice, but he likes to show off.

From time to time, he would put on some official accent or something.

Everyone would often make fun of him, and even many juniors would deliberately imitate him.

He wasn't angry when I saw him, he was quite a kind person.

The relationship with my eldest sister is also very good.

"Okay, I won't say anything then. It's getting late. You can get busy first. I'll go back right now."

Li Muyang said and stood up.

"Are you leaving now? Are you full? Do you want me to order something more for you?"

"No, I'm full. Life is much better now than before."

Li Muyang walked out as he spoke.

Li Xiangyuan sent him to the door and watched him wave his hands and slowly walk away.

He finally smiled.

The feeling of being criticized earlier has improved a lot.

She works hard outside alone, but many people in her family don't understand her.

These days, the universal value for a good girl is to find a capable and honest man to marry.

No matter how capable you are, you might as well marry a capable person.

But Li Xiangyuan just didn't think so.

She just wants to become stronger.

Even if no one at home understands it, it doesn't matter.

She believed that when she became strong and achieved certain achievements, everyone would praise her in turn.

Isn’t it always like this since ancient times?

Everyone only looks at the results, who cares about so many processes.

You have been cowardly, and finally got a good result, that is, you have to endure hardships.

If you have been working hard but failed at the last moment, you are not knowing how to endure and how high the sky is.

Isn’t this the case in novels?

only……

Today I suddenly heard a lot of work advice from Li Muyang, but she was not advised to go home and find someone to marry.

This surprised and surprised her.

Nothing would make her happier than receiving such support from her brother.

This gave her a lot more confidence and she was no longer alone.

Um! ! !
I will continue to work hard and become better.

She silently encouraged herself.
.
Li Muyang said goodbye to his little sister, came to the West Bus Station, and took the bus home.

Cars can only go as far as Qingquan Town, and you still have to walk the rest of the way home.

Along the way, the car pulled people everywhere, starting and stopping many times, and it took a long time.

It was already past five o'clock in the afternoon when we returned to town.

It took nearly an hour to walk home from the town.

I arrived home at exactly six o'clock.

First, she went to her two brothers' houses to talk about her mother's situation. After discussion, Zhao Yali went to stay with her in bed tomorrow and came back three days later to change to Milan Lan.

Just keep two people around at all times.

I also learned that although he did not dig up cordyceps yesterday and today, due to the previous "network" construction, the brothers still retained the purchased fire seeds and obtained more than 600 cordyceps in two days.

Li Muyang is planning to resume digging Cordyceps in the next few days as long as his mother is in the hospital and nothing serious happens. He estimates that he can dig for another week to ten days.

If you are lucky, you can probably earn 800 yuan.

If he could follow his ideas, he would earn a total of more than 4000 yuan from the Cordyceps business.

It is a very good harvest.

When leaving his second brother's house, Li Muyang saw a human-powered tricycle in his second brother's yard and was very interested.

After asking, I learned that it turned out to be a second-hand cargo truck that I had purchased.

Charged at 90 yuan.

Sometimes the second brother needs to haul some tools when working outside, and it is inconvenient without a car.

But if this is the case, I don’t know when his motorcycle will come back.

Li Muyang thought to himself, the second brother didn't say anything, and he didn't ask.

However, when he saw the tricycle, he suddenly remembered something and thought it could be put on the agenda.

"Second brother, please lend me your tricycle."

"What are you going to do? Don't you have a car?"

"Isn't the truck at the hospital? I want to go to Nangou to bring back some scrap bricks."

"Waste bricks?"

Li Mu was stunned, "What kind of waste brick?"

"It's just the broken bricks burned by those brick and tile factories next to Nangou. I want to bring them back for hanging branches."

"What's the hanging branch?"

Li Mudi couldn't understand what his brother was saying at all.

He was stunned for a moment.

Li Muyang then remembered that he had not told his brother about the contracting of Taoshan, so he had to tell him again.

It happened that my sister-in-law Zhao Yali also came out and listened together for a while.

After listening, the brother and sister-in-law looked at each other with confused looks, especially Zhao Yali, who looked worried.

"Mu Yang, sister-in-law, did you hear that right? You mean you contracted the thirty acres of land on the east peak of Taoshan Mountain?"

"Well, yeah."

"A contract is for 30 years?"

"Yes, it's 30 years."

"Oh, why are you so confused?"

Zhao Yali was so anxious that she wanted to take Li Muyang and shake him to shake the water out of his head.

"You clearly know that the peach trees on Taoshan cannot bear fruit, so you let others contract the contract, but they are too lazy to take it. Why do you still pay for the contract? Isn't this giving money to others in vain?"

"That's right, Lao Wu, you are out of your mind. If you can't make up your mind about this kind of thing, you have to discuss it with us. Let us come up with an idea for you. Look at you. You are confused without saying anything. .”

"Your brother is right, you gave all the money to others?"

"Ah."

"Let's see if we can come back?"

"Who are you going with? You don't know who Li Jianshe's group is. You want to spit out the meat that they put into their mouths. You are overthinking it. See if I can give you a bone." Scum."

Li Mudi rolled his eyes at his wife and said angrily.

It looked like he was really pissed off by Li Muyang's confusion.

Li Muyang laughed secretly when he saw his brother and sister-in-law like this.But I didn't dare to laugh.

After all, they all care about themselves.

If he hadn't been capable now, he wouldn't have been a typical victim.

"Brother, sister-in-law, you don't know that I have been studying how to plant fruit trees recently, and I have accumulated a lot of experience in cultivating peach trees. I have an idea of ​​why the peach trees on Taoshan do not bear fruit. I will explain it later. Try it slowly and I believe it will solve this problem.”

"You said you learned your skills, where did you learn them?"

"Yes, Muyang, this matter is not simple. If it were too simple, how could Taoshan remain empty for so long? Someone would have taken care of it long ago."

Li Muchi and Zhao Yali are still full of worries.

"I told you that you don't know it, but you have learned it anyway. You just have to take a closer look at me."

Before Li Muyang knew that things were not done well, explanations were in vain.

Rather than repeating such a shocking thing, it is better to put it into action directly.

Let the facts speak for themselves.

"Okay, if you want to make trouble, then go ahead and see how you can get a wife like this. Which girl would marry a person who can make trouble like you?"

"What are you talking about? Isn't it the girl that Mu Yang fell in love with last time? She's already coming to propose marriage. You can't say so many depressing words, it's not a good omen at all."

Zhao Yali persuaded her husband.

"It's just that the girl agrees. What's the use? It mainly depends on the parents. The matchmaker's words are decided by the parents. What can she know about a girl's family?"

"That's true."

When Zhao Yali heard what her husband said, she felt a little unstable and looked worried.

But it got better in an instant.

"It doesn't matter, let's see what the girl's parents say first. Everyone is asking for conditions. Once they raise the conditions, we will find a way to collect money and buy things, right?"

"That's nice to say, so I can collect the money. Where can I collect the money? The strong wind will blow at you!"

Li Mudi said unhappily, turned around and went into the main room, "Just use it. The front of this bike is a bit crooked and the direction is difficult to control. Be careful when riding and don't fall into the ditch."

"Okay, I'll be careful."

Li Muyang rides a tricycle.

After so many years, it was a bit unaccustomed to ride a purely human-powered tricycle again. He probably needed to get used to it.

When I went out, I almost bumped into the gate of my second brother's house.

It made him a little nervous.

"Sister-in-law, let's go."

"Be careful. I see you are swaying. Why are you a little scary?"

"It doesn't matter, just get a little familiar with it."

"Okay then, let's go."

"Very good."

Seeing Li Muyang go out, Zhao Yali followed him and looked at the gate for a while to make sure that Li Muyang could ride normally before going home and closing the door.

After arriving at the main room, he saw Li Mudi applying oil to his mud mask.

This is what he relies on for survival and food. It is like a soldier's weapon. He takes care of it on weekdays. As long as he does not go out to work, he must wipe it at home.

"Would you like some water, shopkeeper?"

"Don't drink."

Zhao Yali poured herself a glass of water, sat down next to Li Mudi, hesitated for a moment, and said with a smile: "Don't keep saying depressing words in front of Muyang in the future. You are the brother, so you should encourage and support your brother more."

"What did I say? Don't arrange people randomly."

Li Mudi was not convinced.

"You still said no. Mu Yang wanted to do something, so he contracted Taoshan. Shouldn't you support him? Looking at what you said, you can pour cold water on others."

"Am I wrong? You don't know what the peach trees on Peach Mountain are like. Who doesn't know? He doesn't know?"

Li Mudi didn't say it was okay, but he became even more angry when he said it, "I thought he was more mature, but I didn't expect he was still like this."

"Look what you are talking about," Zhao Yali said helplessly, "In the past, Muyang was an honest person and didn't know how to take the initiative to do things. You said he was worthless. Now that he has taken the initiative to do things, you said he is unreliable. You are the elder brother. How can you be the younger brother? It’s not good, you have to help him, just say it, it’s easy for this brother to be on stage, right?”

"Help him, who will help me..."

Li Mudi's voice was much higher.

He seemed a little aggrieved, "Besides, who said I didn't want to help him? You know what the heck."

"Oh, you're talking dirty words to me now, I think it's going to make you angry."

Zhao Yali was not angry with her husband. Seeing that he was unhappy, her tone became softer.

"However, what you said is partly right. No matter what, he should focus on marriage. He should first marry a wife, have a child, and then live his life slowly.

Now that he is 31 years old and he still doesn’t have a wife, it would not be good for him to tell her, and it would not be good for him either. "

"Who knows about him!"

Li Mudi was so angry that he threw the mud mask aside and started rolling a cigarette.

"If only he could actually make the peach tree bear fruit."

"I find it difficult. As I said before, we are just ordinary people. We should live our lives diligently and do it bit by bit with our hands instead of messing around."

"You're still thinking about him marrying a wife, right?"

"I don't think so, I want it to be of no use."

"Really? Then tell me, I originally planned to buy someone else's old motorcycle, but now I have almost collected the money, why did I buy a tricycle instead?"

Li Mudi was stunned for a moment, his expression slightly unnatural.

"You still say you don't care."

"You bitch, what are you talking about?"

"Okay, okay, I didn't say anything. Just rest for now. I'll go see how the leaven is fermenting. I'll make gourd buns for you tomorrow. How about it?"

As soon as he heard the gourd buns, Li Mudi immediately felt better.

"Go and see, I'm not tying your legs."

Zhao Yali smiled and left the main room.

I laughed secretly in my heart.

I was still pretending to be confused. We had already agreed to buy it, but when I heard that my younger brother was talking to a good partner, he suddenly changed his mind.

I don't want to keep the money, just in case it turns out to be more.

This little trick can deceive others, and it can also deceive me.

I have been married to you for more than ten years. If you move your eyebrows, I will know what you are thinking.

Just blink your eyes and you will know your mood changes.

Others say that you, Li Mudi, are a stingy man, but I know that you are actually a very good person.

You just try your best to make the people you care about have a better life.

Otherwise, why would I care about you so much?

"Don't overdo it. Like the steamed buns last time, you could open your mouth wide enough to eat people."

Li Mudi was still emphasizing inside.

"Okay, I understand. The shopkeeper must be careful and don't dare to serve you the grinning buns."

Zhao Yali pursed her lips and smiled.

The children who were doing homework in the room happened to see their mother's smile as she walked by through the window.

They smiled tacitly at each other.

They know that this is what their parents are like.

In this family, it seems that the father is the strong one and the father makes the decisions, but the real backbone is the mother. The father is like the solid iron pieces, but the mother is like the ropes that tie the iron pieces together.

Only by connecting the iron pieces with ropes can they become armor that can block all attacks.

This home exists under such armor.

Although I am a little poorer and a little miserable, I am very happy.
