As soon as Li Shiqiang took a bite of the hot dumplings, Chen Xianglan on the side immediately asked: "How was it?"
“It’s still as delicious as before!”
Li Shiqiang gave a thumbs up while eating dumplings.
"Haha, if it tastes good, eat more."
Chen Xianglan smiled happily, sat next to her and asked, "How about going to the county seat today? Did Director Wang collect the meat?"
"Take it, take it!"
Xu Sheng nodded excitedly and said with a smile: "Ms. Chen, ask Erwa how much we sold today!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Xianglan smiled even more happily, and quickly urged Li Shiqiang to ask: "Tell me quickly, how much money did you make today?"
With a dumpling in his mouth, Li Shiqiang stretched out his hand to make a sign of one, and then made a sign of three.
When Chen Xianglan saw this gesture, she immediately shouted in surprise: "One thousand three!?"
Then she asked hurriedly: "Why so much? This time it's just antelope meat and wild boar meat? Wild boar meat shouldn't be worth much, right?"
Li Shiqiang didn't say anything, and just took out all the money he distributed today and put it on the table.
When she saw the thick wad of banknotes, Chen Xianglan believed it immediately. She was so happy that she took the money in her hands and started counting: "There are really so many!"
However, after she counted for a while, she suddenly frowned and said, "Er baby, that's not right. How do you have more than 800 yuan?"
"Oh! And Zhang Baoshan didn't give him any money. He just went home and forgot to give him any money."
Li Shiqiang patted his head and unexpectedly forgot Zhang Baoshan's money.
After hearing this, Chen Xianglan said: "Forget it today, it's so late. Remember to send it to others tomorrow."
"Um."
After Chen Xianglan counted the money again, she was suddenly stunned again, and then said with a smile: "You actually didn't spend money randomly this time, and you brought all the money back!"
As soon as he heard this, Xu Sheng laughed and said immediately: "Ms. Chen, if I hadn't stopped him, he would have spent two hundred yuan to buy a watch from someone else."
"Two hundred dollars!?"
Chen Xianglan was so frightened that she couldn't help but said, "Is a watch so expensive?"
What surprised Xu Sheng was that after Chen Xianglan heard what he said, she simply sighed that it was expensive and did not blame Li Shiqiang. Instead, she asked: "Where is the watch? Why don't you buy it back?"
Li Shiqiang shook his head and said: "A second-hand watch is not suitable. I want to buy a new one."
Chen Xianglan reacted immediately and quickly agreed: "New one? Yes, yes! You should buy a new one!"
After saying that, she also specially reminded: "When you are getting married, remember to take Sister Yun to buy a gold ring. We don't have any decent jewelry to give her."
Li Shiqiang raised his head in surprise and asked, "Mom, when did you become so generous?"
"You're right! Am I usually very stingy?"
Chen Xianglan rolled her eyes at him angrily, and then said: "I feel that Sister Yun has suffered a big loss by marrying an inconsiderate person like you, so I want to compensate them. Besides, the money spent is yours. It’s not mine.”
"Haha, okay! Then I'll buy a gold ring for Mom too!"
As soon as Li Shiqiang finished speaking, Chen Xianglan couldn't help but asked happily: "Really?"
But as soon as she finished speaking, her face immediately darkened, she shook her head and said, "I'm already this old, why would I buy that thing? You'd better keep the money for Sister Yun."
Li Shiqiang wanted to say a few more words, but after thinking about it, he decided not to.
No matter what he said, Chen Xianglan would probably say no.
When the time comes to buy it for Huang Yun, just bring it to her along the way.
When Chen Xianglan married old man Li Nongchang, they were very poor and had no money left to buy wedding jewelry.
After all these years, she still hasn't seen any decent jewelry.
Now that the family is gradually starting to get rich, they can't just buy things for their future daughter-in-law alone and forget about their own mother.
After Li Shiqiang and Xu Sheng finished eating the dumplings, they went back to their houses to rest.
The next day is Labor Day.
However, this year’s Labor Day doesn’t have much to do with a holiday, but it will be even busier.
At this time, the rapeseed in the field is almost ready to be cut, and the village is rushing to cut the rapeseed flowers.
Moreover, there are no more kraft vegetables to feed the pigs, and the sweet potato seedlings have not yet emerged. In order to feed the pigs, we have to search for wild vegetables all over the mountains and fields.
As soon as Li Shiqiang got up, he found that most of his family members had left, and there was not even a soul left.
But when he came to the main room, he still found sweet potato porridge and pickles on the table.
When he sat down and just picked up the bowl to start eating, he suddenly found that something was holding his feet.
He looked down and saw that the family's red panda was under the table trying to bite his pants.
"You go ahead and bite me. If you bite me, I will send you to the mountains later!"
The red panda had stayed in his home for so many days, and the wounds on its body had long since healed.
The family is busy now and there is no time to get bamboo for it to eat, so I might as well send it back to the mountains early to avoid giving it the habit of eating and drinking for free.
The little panda under the table didn't understand Li Shiqiang's words, and still tried to bite Li Shiqiang's pants very naughtily.
Li Shiqiang had no choice but to pull out his feet, stand up, carry the bowl and come to sit on the threshold.
But as soon as he sat down, the little panda crawled over again, put its two paws on his shoulders and started playing.
"You really don't stop at all!"
Li Shiqiang took two sips of porridge and looked at it helplessly.
After finishing the porridge, he took the red panda directly to the bamboo forest on the mountain and let him get bamboo to eat by himself.
Li Shiqiang himself found a cleaner place, sat on a bamboo, and leisurely watched the red panda eat the bamboo.
"I just finished my work yesterday and I'm really too lazy to move. When we go into the mountains, I'll send you to the mountains."
The red panda ignored him, tilted its head and continued to bite the bamboo.
"Ah..."
After Li Shiqiang looked at it for a while, he couldn't help but yawned.
I actually went to bed too late last night and felt sleepy as soon as I woke up.
Thinking that his family was busy early in the morning and he was still idle, Li Shiqiang didn't want to be lazy.
But the environment inside the bamboo forest is really too quiet, and even a breeze makes it feel noisy.
Just thinking about it, Li Shiqiang lay leisurely in the bamboo forest and fell asleep.
He didn't know how long he slept like this when he was suddenly awakened by someone.
"Second baby! Second baby!"
Li Shiqiang opened his eyes drowsily and saw Xu Sheng squatting in front of him.
"Why are you so free and still sleeping here?"
"What's wrong? What happened?"
Li Shiqiang pushed himself up and sat up, rubbing his eyes.
"Your sister Xiao Xuemei got into a fight with someone!"
