Rolling around and showing off all kinds of requests~

At noon, Li Dalang and Li Erlang returned home. The two large baskets of vegetables they brought in the morning were sold out, and there was a jar of vinegar and two jars of salt inside.

Da Liu greeted them and drove home in a mule cart.

Guan Wen helped move the basket into the kitchen, and Shan Zi circled around Li Dalang's legs.After a lot of work, Li Dalang noticed his son, and said a little dotingly: "If you don't stay here obediently, why are you wandering around?"

Li Erlang said with a smile: "Shanzi didn't see his father all morning, think about it, isn't it Shanzi?"

Shan Zi blinked and shook his head at Li Erlang, "No, Second Uncle, I want to tell Dad a secret!"

"What's the secret, little boy?" Li Dalang rubbed his little head indifferently, picked up a jar of vinegar and put it in a corner, and said a little sadly: "I forgot to put vinegar in a jar, and I bought it with it." I'm afraid my mother will be unhappy when the jar comes back."

"It didn't cost much, and besides, the mule cart wouldn't fit in when we left early in the morning."

Li Erlang put the salt jar in the cupboard, turned around and saw Shanzi pouted there with dissatisfaction, and teased him, "Shanzi really wants to tell your father a secret?"

"Yeah, second uncle is not allowed to eavesdrop! Mom said you can't talk nonsense!"

"Hahaha, okay, I won't listen, I won't listen!"

Li Erlang smiled and stacked the two baskets together, went out of the kitchen and put them in the utility room, and went to see his wife.Guan Wen looked at Shan Zi, the little man was white and tender, very lovable.He chuckled, gently pinched Shanzi's face and said with a smile: "Then uncle doesn't listen to Shanzi telling your father secrets anymore."

"Uncle knows."

Shanzi blinked, leaned into Li Dalang's ear and whispered: "Father, father, and uncle are all here! Let me tell you, grandpa is beating uncle!"

Li Dalang paused, and immediately raised his eyes to look at Guan Wen.Although Shanzi spoke close to him, Xiaowazi's voice was high-pitched and there were no noises, so Guan Wen's hearing was good, so he naturally heard it.He didn't mind that this little boy would still complain, he was stunned and said: "Did Shanzi see it?"

"Yes, yes, but when I asked my mother, she didn't say anything...and told Shanzi not to talk nonsense."

Shanzi bit his finger in distress, and turned to look at Li Dalang, "Later, my mother went to see my aunt, and I saw that the uncle was kicked out by grandma, hehe..."

The little boy was ignorant and thought it was a very funny thing, so he slapped his hands and thought about it, and then asked, "Daddy, why did grandpa hit grandpa?"

"Uncle will be beaten if he does something wrong. If you are disobedient, you will also be beaten!"

Li Dalang bluffed him, Shanzi quickly hugged his little butt, gave Li Dalang an aggrieved look, "Daddy is bad..." Then he ran away pouted.

Li Dalang then asked: "Brother Wen, what happened?"

Guan Wen naturally couldn't hide it, and he had to tell Dalang Erlang who was not at home, so he didn't hide anything. Some, Yue Zhang is very annoyed."

Li Dalang thumped his fist and remained silent for a long time. Guan Wen raised his head and looked at him questioningly, and he said: "...Brother Wen, don't feel uncomfortable..."

It's hard to tell.

Li Dalang sighed, but Guan Wen understood what he was trying to express, smiled and said: "Don't worry, I knew about this before we got married, besides, Xiner is very good."

Hearing that Guan Wen called Li Xin so affectionately, Li Dalang was also happy that the two of them had a good relationship, and patted Guan Wen on the shoulder, "Our family only has a sister and a girl, and I cherish her when she was young. It's because her life is bad. At that time, my dad started to gamble, but he was impatient to lose. I had no money to pay and was deducted by the casino. My mother was looking for people to borrow money, and all relatives and friends borrowed money, but it was still not good. Mother listened to Mrs. Sun's words and thought she was sending her younger sister to be a servant girl in a rich family. It was just an emergency, but she never thought she would be tricked by this old woman, and she would never be able to find her younger sister again."

All these Guan articles have been mentioned by Aunt Li when she was a matchmaker, but Li Xin has not talked about that kind of thing after marrying into the Guan family. He also remembers what Aunt Li said, never ask, and never dig out the scars of his wife.

"Actually, in the first few months, my mother and I received a letter to pick up my sister. At that time, my mother didn't care much about other things. I heard the messenger say something about my sister at that time. I just don't know my sister. Did I tell you?"

Guan Wen shook his head, and Li Dalang sighed and said, "I think my sister's luck is better than other people's. Who entered that door was not a person who was tortured? That old bustard is still a She is a kind person. I raised my sister for two years and waited for her to come out when she was seventeen. I also respected my sister's appearance. This is a lucky one. Another lucky one is that my sister only followed one man there. I heard it was a man. A businessman who came to our place to do business. When my sister was 20 years old, something happened to the merchant’s family and she returned home. My sister fell ill at that time and never came out again... Well, then I went home and talked to you in front of me. Became a relative."

Li Dalang was silent for a while and said: "There is no other meaning in saying this. I just want to say that you can also treat your sister as a widow and remarry. As the eldest brother, I just hope you can treat her better. What's the matter?" , you can protect her. Sometimes she can't stop the gossip, please help, the man speaks hard, and she has the confidence to speak. Because of the guilt, the parents have regarded her as a sharp-hearted girl since she came back. , but my younger sister has a good temperament and good looks, and she never hides from housework, she works when she is free, and she is not suspected at home. To be honest, she doesn't want to deal with others, and she has made up her mind to live at home in the future. I would also like to raise her for the rest of my life."

Guan Wen said softly: "Xiner has a good brother..."

"I can't be considered a good brother. As a brother, I can't help her..." Li Dalang laughed at himself: "At that time, if I could think of ideas more, or stop her Mother sells her younger sister to be a maid, so there are not so many things to do."

It's just that at that time the Li family was anxiously waiting for money, not only the gambling debts from Li Houzhong's casino, but also the money from Li Fei's marriage at that time.

"Hey, let's not talk about this. It's getting late, and they are all waiting for us in the main room. Let's have lunch first."

Li Dalang put Guan Wen's shoulders on his shoulders and headed towards the main room, just in time to hear Li Erlang yelling inside, "Father, are you so patient?!"

"Qiuzi!"

Li Dalang hurried over and pulled him to sit down, and cursed bitterly: "Look at your fiery temper, you are not afraid to scare your wife!"

Only then did Li Erlang let out a deep breath, and turned to Jiang, "It's okay, let's eat."

Jiang shi ate rice with red eyes, and took the opportunity to pick up a chopstick for Li Erlang.

"Okay, there's no need to make my family bitter and bitter. It's not enough to have a falling out with the uncle, and the family still has to fight?" Li Xin said while feeding the big guys: "I said the second brother , your temper should also be changed, the second brother and sister can't stand being scared now."

Li Erlang was very angry, and he was still uncomfortable after hearing what his sister said, so he took a mouthful of food, wiped his mouth with the heel of his palm, and chewed the food in his mouth without saying a word, as if it was his enemy Same.

Mrs. Liu poked the table with her chopsticks and shouted, "Da Lang, uncle, eat!"

Guan Wen sat down next to Li Xin, and the whole family of eleven people sat at a large round table. The dishes on the table were not rich, but there were still two kinds of rabbit meat and a pot of chicken, and the rest of the vegetarian dishes were also stir-fried.Although the menu is monotonous, it is also warm.

It's just that from the beginning to the end, Li Houzhong didn't say a word.

After dinner, Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Liu washed the dishes, and Li Xin planned to pack up and go back to Guan's house with Guan Wen.But Li Houzhong touched it at this moment, he watched Guan Wen and talked to his three sons, but there was no one with his daughter.

Li Xin heard her father calling, and hurriedly responded, Li Houzhong rubbed his palms, "Is it back now?"

"Hey, Guan has a lot of family members and a lot of things to do. It's not good to delay any longer. I can make dinner in time now."

"Does my uncle hurt you?"

Li Xin paused, helped Li Houzhong to sit down, and said as if to comfort a child: "Father, don't worry about me, Ah Wen is very good to me. But you, now that you have fallen out with uncle, you will have to deal with it in the future." what to do?"

Li Houzhong clicked his lips, "What can we do? At worst, we won't communicate."

"How is that possible? If nothing else, Grandma is still alive."

Even if Li Yue's family has gone, don't the three sons under his knees all have to wear hemp and mourning?But Li Xin didn't say that.

Li Houzhong thought for a while, then sighed: "Your uncle is too hurtful..."

Li Xin didn't care, "Uncle is just talking fast, and he didn't think so deeply when he said that." Li Xin knelt down and pinched Li Houzhong's leg, and said, "Uncle is a bit of a son in this village. It is rumored that he and his brother have a rift, I am afraid it is not good."

Li Houzhong was silent, "Our family just doesn't say anything."

Li Xin smiled, "Father is soft-hearted, no wonder uncles and uncles are bullying you, and mother can control you."

"Calling your father?" Li Houzhong patted Li Xin on the shoulder lightly, sighed: "This time, father is really hot."

"I know, Dad is angry at what Uncle scolded me." Li Xin smiled and said, "Father and Mother are also a little more sensitive, I'm afraid Uncle really didn't mean that, but you, Dad, listen to the wind and rain."

Li Houzhong hummed twice, then hissed, "Little girl, lighten up your hand."

Li Xin laughed, changed pinch to thump, and muttered: "How old are you and call me a little girl..."

"She is in her seventies and eighties, and she is also Daddy's little girl."

"……Ai!"
