Siheyuan: A Very Happy Era

Chapter 24 That's too cheap.

At the same time, Banggeng was frightened by Li Guoqiang who was standing in the South Yard, and almost dropped the bag of very dangerous things hidden in his arms.

Then, he suddenly reacted, and hurriedly pretended to be calm as he walked out of the door, then brushed past Li Guoqiang and walked straight towards the gate of the courtyard, as if he had gotten up early to go to the public toilet outside.

Li Guoqiang stood there and watched Banggeng's figure disappear at the gate quietly, then he frowned suddenly.

Although Banggeng had concealed it well before, he could still sense that something was wrong from the look of surprise on Banggeng's face when he first saw him.

In addition, he had never seen Banggeng get up so early in the whole year, so he was very sure that Banggeng must have some conspiracy in his heart, and it was directed at him, or at their family.

As for what it was, he couldn't figure it out for the time being, so he could only keep it in mind. At the same time, it also strengthened his desire to write a letter of praise to Banggeng.

Whether it was to allow his family to live a more stable life in the future or to vent his anger, he had to keep Bang Geng away from him.

Although it was not necessary to send Banggeng to the Northwest where thieves occasionally occurred, he could not allow Banggeng's biological mother and stupid father to find someone to help arrange Banggeng to the suburbs of the old city.

Because that's just too cheap!
Based on his understanding of the deputy director of the Youth League Office who helped him to complete the procedures for going to the countryside in advance, if he saw the anonymous letter of praise he had sent to praise Banggeng for his dedication and active response to the call, he would definitely want to take this opportunity to establish Banggeng as a role model.

By then, due to the involvement of interests, even if Sha Zhu went to the senior leaders for help, it would be impossible for him to arrange Bang Geng to the suburbs of Sijiu City.

As long as it is not in the suburbs, then for him, his purpose of teaching Banggeng a lesson has been achieved.

Besides, don’t think that he couldn’t guess why Qin Huairu went out so early just now?

He simply wanted to go back to his mother's home to inquire about the various arrangements made by the village for city dwellers to go to the countryside to work in the fields, so that Sha Zhu could find someone to help him and choose a place with better treatment for Bang Geng.

So he immediately decided to write the letter of praise as soon as he woke up from his nap at noon, then quickly walked through the archway of the screen wall into the front yard of his house, and then quietly returned to his room.

At this time, Li Guofu was still sleeping like a pig, and he didn't seem to notice that Li Guoqiang had gone out.

Seeing this situation, Li Guoqiang breathed a sigh of relief and then hurriedly looked for a suitable place to hide things in the house.

After searching everywhere, he still couldn't find a place that satisfied him.

In addition, Li Guofu might wake up at any time, so he didn't worry about it anymore. He planned to wrap all the things in a cotton jacket and put them next to the pillow, and then think of a way to deal with them after he woke up.

Soon, he took off his shoes, hat, and cotton-padded jacket, and stuffed all the things into the sleeves of his jacket.

Just as he put away his cotton jacket and sat on the bed, preparing to take off his cotton trousers and get into bed to sleep, Li Guofu's snoring suddenly stopped, causing him to pause slightly.

Immediately afterwards, before he could carefully check whether Li Guofu had woken up, footsteps suddenly came from outside the door.

Then, with a slight creaking sound, a familiar figure walked in from outside the door.

When Li Guoqiang saw Yao Meilan suddenly walk in, he didn't have time to think about it. He quickly pulled up his cotton trousers that were half taken off and pretended to be about to get up.

"Hey, kid, why are you up so early? It's snowing outside. Go back to bed and lie down first. I'll make breakfast and wake you up to eat."

When Yao Meilan saw Li Guoqiang getting dressed, she was slightly stunned, then hurriedly spoke to stop Li Guoqiang from getting up so early, completely unaware that Li Guoqiang had already secretly gone to the black market and made a fortune.

"Okay, then I'll go back to bed and lie down for a while. Stepmother, I want to eat the dumpling soup you made!" Upon hearing this, Li Guoqiang immediately nodded and agreed, and at the same time acted coquettishly to Yao Meilan.

"Okay, I'll go to the toilet to empty the urinal, and then I'll go to the butcher's stall to buy two taels of meat and make you some minced meat dumpling soup. I'm sure you'll enjoy it!"

When Yao Meilan heard Li Guoqiang's request, she smiled and nodded without thinking and agreed.

After saying that, she saw that Li Guoqiang had crawled back into bed, so she hurriedly went up to pick up a red and white enamel spittoon with high legs placed in the corner, then turned around and walked out in a hurry, preparing to go and get the meat back early.

When Li Guoqiang saw Yao Meilan leave, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

If Yao Meilan came over and touched his quilt, he would definitely be exposed for running away secretly.

Fortunately, he was smart enough and thought of asking Yao Meilan for some dumpling soup, which made Yao Meilan rush to the meat stall to queue up for the meat, thus avoiding the matter from being exposed.

It was impossible for him to sleep at this moment. He could only close his eyes and rest while checking the changes in his personal attribute panel in his mind.

Name: Li Guoqiang
Age: 19 years old
Strength: 4.23 (adult male average 8)

Physical fitness: 3.51 (average for adult males: 7.5)

Mental: 6.7 (adult male average 6.5)

Perhaps it was because his basic attributes were too low, and it only took one point to get a total of eleven points of training effect, so it was relatively easy to improve.

Just like some people with poor health, they can achieve significant results by doing intensive exercise for a few days.

The difficulty lies in how to consolidate the training results that have been achieved, not to mention that it requires the same amount of sweat and energy.

Sometimes, even over-exercising can cause heavy burden and damage to the body, greatly reducing the effectiveness of the exercise.

Thinking of this, Li Guoqiang was very glad that he could get the life buff of "one pain, ten gains". As long as he worked hard, he would definitely get rewards, and the rewards would be tenfold.

Is there anything in the world that is more inspiring and more likely to bring a sense of accomplishment than this?
Soon, more than an hour passed and the sky outside became bright.

Seeing this situation, Li Guoqiang immediately knew that the first snow in the city had stopped.

After a while, Luo Huijuan came in with a kettle of boiling water, pushed open the door, and then whispered to Li Guoqiang and Li Guoqiang to get up and wash, while pouring the boiling water into the enamel washbasin on the washstand.

Hearing the sound, Li Guoqiang immediately sat up from the bed, shivering slightly, and used his hands and feet to put on his cotton trousers and cotton jacket.

The things that were originally hidden in his cotton-padded jacket had already been stuffed under his pillow.

By the time he had put on his clothes and shoes, Luo Huijuan had already prepared towels, toothbrushes, tooth cleaning powder, enamel teacups and other toiletries for him, looking like a crazy doting brother.

However, when she saw that Li Guoqiang had started to wash up, but Li Guofu was still lying in bed, her face immediately darkened. She walked up quickly, reached out and pulled away the quilt on Li Guofu.
