After getting off the bus at the entrance of Nanluogu Lane, Li Laifu said to Li Chongwu: "Okay, second uncle, don't be angry. I'll treat you to dinner at noon."
"You stinky boy," Li Chongwu cursed with a smile.
"Xiao Laifu, how did you come back by car?" Monkey asked while lying on the tricycle.
"Brother Monkey, we are waiting for pie to fall from the sky again."
"Yeah, he didn't wait for the pie, but a caterpillar fell down. It scared him so much just now," Qian Erbao said next to him.
The monkey sat up and cursed: "Qian Erbao, you beast! You fool me, you think I don't know that you lost the caterpillar."
"Laifu, you're back. Oh my god, isn't this Chongwu? Why are you here with Laifu?" Zhao Fang said in surprise.
"Sister-in-law, do you work in this supply and marketing cooperative?" Li Chongwu asked, looking inside the supply and marketing cooperative.
"Yes, I work here every day. It's so close to home. This is Xiaoli. I haven't seen her for two or three years and she has grown into a big girl," Zhao Fang came over and said.
"Auntie," Xiaoli shouted obediently.
Why,
After Zhao Fang agreed, she looked at Li Laifu standing there empty-handed and asked, "Laifu, where is Xiaohong?"
"Grandma doesn't want to let her go, and she doesn't want to leave grandma either. Let her play there for a few more days," Li Laifu said lightly.
Zhao Fang suddenly had red eyes and asked with an uncertain tone: "Is your grandma really willing to take her with you?"
"Why don't you want to? That's her granddaughter. It's too late for her to be happy."
"That's good, that's good!" Zhao Fang was extremely happy when her mother-in-law finally recognized her.
"We haven't eaten yet. I'll take them to a state-owned restaurant for dinner. Auntie, go ask for leave and come and eat together," Li Laifu said.
Zhao Fang no longer felt distressed at this time. All she thought about was her mother-in-law's promise to help her take care of the children. "You go and eat. I won't eat."
"Which restaurant will Laifu go to for dinner?" Li Chongwu stopped him.
"If you don't want to eat, just stand at the door and watch. I'm treating my sister to dinner," Li Laifu said jokingly.
Zhao Fang took out a small handkerchief and said, "Laifu will give you money."
"Auntie, I have money," Li Laifu said and walked towards the state-owned hotel.
Li Chongwu said: "Sister-in-law, let me go and have a look, otherwise this kid will order the food randomly."
"Then go quickly," Zhao Fang put the handkerchief in her pocket again.
Looking at the deserted entrance of the state-owned hotel, he knew that there was no braised pork. Li Laifu ordered a chicken stewed with mushrooms, a plate of peanuts, a bottle of Erguotou, six steamed buns, wine stamps, and food stamps. He never lacked them. , paid five yuan and seventy cents to open the ticket.
"Why is this kid spending so much money?" Li Chongwu jumped anxiously beside him.
"Second uncle is in town, just listen to me, your nephew is awesome," Li Laifu boasted, making the waiter laugh.
"Your nephew is awesome. Last time he beat four people and asked for 50 yuan. It spread all over the alley," the waiter said.
"What 50 yuan?" Li Chongwu asked.
Damn it,
There really are no secrets in this day and age, especially since these women rely solely on gossiping for entertainment.
"Second Uncle Xiaoli, I'll tell you later. Let's stay away from her. They like to spread gossip.
The three of them went to sit at the table by the window. Li Laifu took another bottle of Erguotou, a large bowl, and a plate of peanuts.
"You kid, just wait for your father to beat you up," Li Chongwen couldn't help but sat there smoking a cigarette angrily.
"Brother, we can't finish eating," Xiaoli said, pulling Li Laifu.
"It's okay. If I have money, let's have a bowl of it..."
In this era, you can't say the second half of the sentence, otherwise you will have to listen to the scolding. He took the bowl and poured half a catty of wine for Li Chongwu. He grabbed a handful of peanuts from the remaining half bottle and walked out the door. "Brother Monkey, I have wine and peanuts here."
"Fuck, you are so cool, brother," the monkey turned over, ran over, put the peanuts directly in his pocket, took the wine bottle, and returned to the tricycle.
The dishes of this era are really good. There is a whole pot of chicken stewed with mushrooms, and Li Chongwu and Xiaoli can eat it. If Li Laifu ruins it again.
After finishing the meal, the two men only burped. "Laifu, I took Xiaoli home," Li Chongwu said.
Li Laifu rolled his eyes and said, "What home do you want to go to? Second uncle, come home with me first. I'm going out in a while. I won't tell you anything until I get back."
"What are you doing, kid?" Li Chongwu never paid attention to what Li Laifu said about arranging a job for Xiaoli, but Li Laifu did. These days, as long as he has meat, where can he not get a job?
"Leave it alone. If you dare to leave, I will tell my grandparents that you beat me when I get back. I also told my second aunt that you saw women drooling in the city," Li Laifu threatened.
Li Laifu played a trick and finally brought Li Chongwu home and trotted all the way to the supply and marketing cooperative. "Brother Monkey, let me ride the tricycle. I have to go out for something."
Monkey and Qian Erbao squatted beside the tricycle, drinking Erguotou.
"What are you pulling? Can you help me?" Qian Erbao asked.
"I don't pull things just for convenience," Li Laifu lied.
Li Laifu rode a tricycle directly to the steel rolling mill. This time he did not bring pork but talked about business.
"Why did you come here with nothing? You don't want to steal something from the factory, do you?" the old man in the reception room said while lying on the window sill.
"You're an old man who talks too much. Why should I steal in broad daylight?" Li Laifu glared at him and said.
"Why did you, a little girl practicing girl boxing, never tell the truth, which caused me and Wang Kui to have a quarrel?"
Li Laifu rode a tricycle to the window and asked, "Why are you arguing?"
The old man said with a smile: "I called him one day after get off work. I said Wang Kui, your son would call you a bastard at home. He would be anxious."
"You little bastard, you are obviously from Li Chongwen's family, why did you lie to me?" the old man continued.
Li Laifu looked disappointed when he heard that there was no fight. Why didn't the two most annoying people fight? Then his face changed and he said: "Who do you care about me? You old man talks too much. Why didn't you let him beat you up?"
The old man chased him out of the reception room and cursed: "You little bastard..."
Riding a tricycle to the logistics office.
"Uncle Guo, are you busy?" Li Laifu entered the office.
"You're not busy, Xiao Li, come in quickly," Director Guo replied with a smile.
The two exchanged pleasantries, and Director Guo made Li Laifu a cup of tea.
"Uncle Guo, I want to ask you something?"
"If you want to ask anything, just ask."
Li Laifu said straight to the point: "Uncle Guo, our steel rolling mill has a working quota. How much money will it cost?"
Director Guo took the cigarette from Li Laifu, lit it, and asked with a smile: "What's wrong? Do you want to come to work?"
"Uncle Guo, just tell me the truth. I asked for someone else."
