Siheyuan: A Very Happy Era

Chapter 83 Newcomer Arrival
"That's the thing. Your uncle Lu said that Dahua will never be given to our family. But if our family wants Dahua to help pull the sled to the county town, we can borrow it from him!"

"Okay, I get it!"

When Li Guoqiang heard the news, he felt a little disappointed.

Originally, he wanted to use money or other things as a betrothal gift to make Xu Guanglu agree to marry Dahua to Dahuang.

In this way, with the cooperation of Xu Guanglu, the original owner, he can slowly conquer Dahua and even buy a big one and get a small one for free.

However, Xu Guanglu seemed to see through his plan and directly rejected his request.

Fortunately, Xu Guanglu agreed to lend him the big flower, which helped him solve the problem of going to the county town in the future.

Soon, he put the matter aside for the time being and went to the north stove to busy himself with cooking.

After this period of hard work, he not only improved his physical fitness to the standard of a normal person, but also consumed a lot of rice and noodles.

当然，这同时也让他消耗了一些物资，分别是20个馒头、10斤米饭、5只老母鸡、5只老母鸭、2只兔子、2斤羊肉、20个鸡蛋、还有300多斤柴火。

Without these supplies, he would not have been able to improve his physical fitness so much.

This is still considered a small amount. After all, people who practice martial arts are famous for their big appetites. There is not only a saying that those who are good at literature are poor but those who are good at martial arts are rich, there is even a legend that some people can eat a whole cow a day.

According to the situation, I guess one chicken would not even be enough for him to have in one meal.

Therefore, it is time to put hunting in the mountains on the agenda.

In addition, during this period of time, he also brought more than 2000 kilograms of firewood into the house, basically using up all the firewood in the storage space.

When the time comes, I can go into the mountains to hunt, pick up some firewood, and get some soil and water to manage my little world.

However, before that, he had to find time to go to the county town and take the opportunity to get some meat from the storage space to replenish the nutrition of Qu Yinfeng and Xu Dani from time to time.

Since Xu Guangshan entrusted the family to him, he has the responsibility to take good care of Qu Yinfeng and Xu Dani.

After planning what to do next, the meal was ready in a short while.

Since he had asked Qu Yinfeng to cook the pork and fish he brought back, the family had been eating sauerkraut, potatoes, pickles, etc. in recent days, which made the little girl Xu Dani look a little sad.

As the saying goes, it is easy to change from frugality to luxury, and it is difficult to change from luxury to frugality.

If Qu Yinfeng hadn't taught her well, the little girl would probably have started to curse.

"Eat it quickly, and I'll give you another candy after you finish it!"

When Li Guoqiang saw Xu Dani like this, he felt happy, then he laughed and made a promise.

"Ok!"

Xu Dani's eyes lit up when she heard that, and then she hurriedly started eating in big mouthfuls.

"Just spoil her as much as you can! You will regret it sooner or later!"

Upon seeing this, Qu Yinfeng couldn't help but say something bad.

However, the slightly raised corners of her mouth and the smile in her eyes still betrayed her true feelings. Soon, it was the next morning.

As usual, Li Guoqiang got up early to practice health-preserving breathing techniques and Xingyiquan, allowing these two skills to take a small step towards L6. Then, after having breakfast with Qu Yinfeng and Xu Dani, he went directly to Xu Guangfu's house.

At this time, Shang Xiuzhen, Shao Ruian and others had arrived.

When they saw Li Guoqiang coming, except Shang Xiuzhen, all of them widened their eyes at once, as if they couldn't believe that the man in front of them, who walked with a gait like a dragon and a tiger, with an upright posture and exuding a strong aura, was the Li Guoqiang who used to look a little frail.

Especially Li Guoqiang's face, which should have been more gentle, but now, the facial lines suddenly became hard, as if they had been carved by a knife and an axe, so handsome!
correct!

Nowadays, no matter who sees Li Guoqiang, they will think that this young man is very handsome, and will not think that he is beautiful at all.

Soon, Li Guoqiang walked in front of the crowd, and then jokingly asked, "What's the matter? Why are you all looking at me like this? Don't you recognize me?"

Hearing this, Shao Ruian and the others immediately came back to their senses. Then, Zhao Dabao couldn't help but ask first: "What have you been doing all this time? Why do you suddenly seem like a different person?"

"Harmful!"

Hearing this, Li Guoqiang quickly waved his hands and replied, "What else can I do in such a cold day? Team Leader Shang saw that I was weak, so she taught me a boxing technique. I have been practicing boxing at home all this time!"

"It's true. After this period of exercise, my body has become much stronger all of a sudden."

"Speaking of which, this is all thanks to Team Leader Shang!"

Having said that, he did not forget to bow to Shang Xiuzhen who was sitting next to him to express his gratitude.

The reason why he did this was, on the one hand, to find a reasonable excuse for his change, and on the other hand, he wanted to take the opportunity to fulfill his agreement with Sang Xiuzhen and express his support for her to be the team leader.

"okay!"

Shang Xiuzhen was instantly satisfied when she saw Li Guoqiang giving her face. She quickly waved her hand and said, "Don't flatter me. I just taught you a few boxing moves. How well you can practice depends on your own practice."

Hearing this, Li Guoqiang just smiled and didn't respond. Then he walked to the edge of the kang and sat down, waiting for the arrival of the newlyweds with everyone else.

He now holds a laissez-faire attitude towards Shang Xiuzhen and others. If they can get along well, that's great. If not, he won't force it.

Afterwards, everyone stopped focusing their attention on Li Guoqiang and continued talking about their own situations.

Since there were no entertainment activities during those days and they didn't have to work in the fields, they basically stayed in the homes of the people they were staying with during the winter.

Moreover, the fish they had been given earlier also satisfied their cravings a little, so apart from the fact that the food was not very good, the weather was relatively cold, and it was a little inconvenient to live in someone else's house, they did not have any major worries.

After chatting for a while, they suddenly heard Old Sun's shouting outside the house. Then they saw Tian Guixiang, who was busy cooking porridge and pancakes with her daughter-in-law Li Xiuqin in the outer room, lifting the door curtain and shouting.

"The people have been picked up, you guys should go out and welcome them!"

Hearing this, Shang Xiuzhen immediately stood up and walked out, and the others followed her.

Soon, they saw three young men and three young girls, standing in the yard somewhat uncomfortably, just like when they first came here.
