The next morning.
After breakfast, Li Shiqiang drove out the family's oxcart, and his eldest brother-in-law Tong Shunqiang was also carrying the red deer meat from the kitchen.
When I went to the county town last time, I got a sewing ticket from Mr. Chen in the hotel, and someone else also paid for fifty pounds of red deer meat in advance.
Now that I'm back, I'm almost done with all the work at home, and it's time to deliver the meat to others.
"Er baby, let your strong brother follow you this time, and take the guy with you by the way, so as not to meet those awesome dicks on the road again."
On the way back from the county town, the family encountered a group of thieves, so when Li Shiqiang planned to go to the county town again, his mother Chen Xianglan was a little worried about him going alone.
Li Shiqiang shook his head, looked at Xu Sheng who was walking next to him and said, "It's okay, Mom. I asked Sheng Wazi to come with me last night. Didn't he move out from his eldest brother's house? He didn't have a lot of things. Come on, let’s go buy something on the way.”
Xu Sheng, who had just walked over, raised the gun in his hand and said to Chen Xianglan: "Don't worry, Mrs. Chen, I also brought the guy's. We have two guns, no matter how many cocks there are, we won't be afraid!"
"Okay, then go ahead."
Seeing this, Chen Xianglan nodded with relief and headed to the new house carrying a bucket of freshly boiled tea.
And here, as soon as Xu Sheng jumped onto the bullock cart, Li Shiqiang pulled him off: "What are you doing? There are still things that have not been moved. Did you forget the Eucommia ulmoides we got before? Those things are still piled at home and not sold. It’s over.”
"Oh, then I'll move it right away."
They brought more than 200 kilograms of Eucommia ulmoides from the mountains before. After selling 20 kilograms, they still had about 200 kilograms left at home.
It would be too wasteful to only deliver meat to the county this time and then come back.
After loading all the eucommia at home onto the oxcart, Li Shiqiang took the dry food given to them by his eldest sister and prepared to go out.
"Let's go, Sheng Wazi."
"I want it."
The two got into the car, waved the cattle rope and left the yard.
But just when he went out, he saw a handsome figure standing at the door of the courtyard.
"Ah! Why are you here!"
Li Shiqiang looked happy, jumped out of the car, ran over, and took Huang Yun's little hand.
Huang Yun shyly glanced at Xu Sheng on the ox cart, pulled out her hand and said, "There is someone here!"
"What are you afraid of? Our two mothers have already met, and we are getting engaged soon. Are you afraid that people will see it?"
Li Shiqiang said with a playful smile, grabbed Huang Yun's little hand again and said, "Do you have anything to do with me?"
Huang Yun reached out and brushed the hair beside her ears, and said with a blush: "It's nothing, it's just my old man who asked me to come to you."
"Find me?"
Li Shiqiang smiled in his heart and understood what his future father-in-law was thinking.
In the past, the two of them had a bad reputation, but now that their marriage has been settled, no one talks about them when they are together.
Moreover, the Li family was angry at Zhou Fenglan yesterday, and they still felt a little uncomfortable.
So on the second day, Huang Yun was asked to come to Li Shiqiang to cultivate feelings.
"Are you done with the work in the fields?"
"Busy working."
"Okay, then you come with me to the county seat today."
"Going to the county seat?"
Huang Yun blinked her eyes, a little confused.
Li Shiqiang smiled and held her little hand and walked towards the oxcart: "Well, it just so happens that I am going to the county town today to sell herbal medicine. You come with me to have a look, and you can tell your mother when you get back."
Huang Yun was also a little interested when she heard that she was going to sell herbal medicine. After all, Li Shiqiang made a promise in front of his parents yesterday that he would make a living by growing herbal medicine in the future.
"Sheng Wazi, you drive yourself, I will sit in the back with Yun Mei."
"Okay, okay, if you have a mother-in-law and brothers, you don't want me anymore."
Xu Sheng said a few words with a smile, and after the two of them got on the carriage, they waved the cattle rope to drive the carriage.
Li Shiqiang and Huang Yun sat together and began to whisper.
"Why are you still so shy? I told you that we are different now and will be getting married by the end of the year."
"How can I be shy!"
After Huang Yun pouted and said, she boldly leaned her head on Li Shiqiang's shoulder: "We just got in the car and sat down."
"Okay, okay."
After Li Shiqiang said with a smile, his expression suddenly changed, he looked at the bullock cart and shouted: "Uncle Huang! Mother Zhou!"
Huang Yun was startled and quickly sat up and raised her head.
But when she shyly turned her head and looked over, she didn't even see half of the person.
"Hahaha...look at you like this!"
"Ah! Brother Qiang, you are so bad!"
Huang Yun blushed, raised her fist and hit Li Shiqiang on the shoulder.
"It hurts, it hurts, don't hit it."
Li Shiqiang laughed playfully, took Huang Yun into his arms, and said to his ear: "If I break your man, how will I marry you in the future?"
Huang Yun's blushing little face immediately turned red again as soon as she heard the words "your man".
"What nonsense are you talking about!"
"Why am I talking nonsense? You will be my mother-in-law soon, and I will be your man. What can't you say?"
"I think everyone calls me 'lover'."
"That's what people working in the county call them, and they're all told to outsiders. In our village, we all call women women and men."
In the late 1970s, couples in various places were generally called lovers. In local terms, they were called mother-in-law, hall guest, or head or shopkeeper.
It was not until the late 1980s, when some Hong Kong dramas were spread in the mainland, that the fashionable title of husband and wife emerged.
The young couple made love to each other on the carriage board, and Xu Sheng could only drive the ox cart on the way.
Whenever he heard the laughter and slapstick behind him, Xu Sheng could only grit his teeth and think about Juanzi who was far away on Diaoya.
After walking like this for almost a whole morning, I finally saw the shadow of the county seat.
Xu Sheng also had a sullen face, and quickly turned around and said, "That's almost enough, the county seat is coming soon."
After hearing what he said, Huang Yun quickly broke away from Li Shiqiang's arms, stuck his head out with curiosity and said, "Ah, the county seat is coming so soon. I haven't even seen the county seat yet!"
"What's there to see in the county? Sister Yun, I'll take you to see a movie later!" Li Shiqiang sat on the car and shook his head, saying happily.
"Can you still watch movies in this county? How can I watch them?"
Movies have been shown in Jinsha Village before, but they always had projectionists come after the autumn harvest to pull the white cloth and carry the projector.
"There is a movie theater in this county. If you want to watch any movie, just go to the movie theater!"
"Is it so convenient?"
After Huang Yun said in surprise, she asked curiously: "What movies can you watch in the cinema?"
Li Shiqiang thought for a while, and at this time, "Romance in Lushan Mountain" and "Shaolin Temple" should not have been released yet. The three more popular movies these days should be "Little Flower", "The Smile of the Distressed" and "The Trill of Life".
"The three of us will go to the cinema later to watch "The Trill of Life". This one is quite good."
"Ah."
Xu Sheng curled his lips with a sour look on his face, shook his head and said, "You guys have to go, but I won't go."
