Hard times have room

Chapter 640

Xu Xiuying originally thought that when Li Gen left, he really left. After all, at this time, there should be no one who is so blind and wants to eat at another house.

Unexpectedly, this Li Gen is back again, as expected to be mixed with Li Qiang, as shameless as Li Qiang.

If Xu Xiuying doesn't give him a good face, Li Gen naturally won't be hot and stick his cold ass. There are not many good friends in their line of work. I want him to please Xu Xiuying by submissiveness and have a meal. , go dream!

So, Li Gen went directly into Li Qiang's house, which is the firewood house that belonged to Li Qiang alone. Now most of the space inside is filled with firewood picked up by the Li family. Except for the poor hard bed that Li Qiang slept in, other places , It's impossible to move at all, and it's too crowded to turn around.

"Genzi, why are you back? Is there something wrong?" Li Qiang was surprised when he saw Li Gen who came back. He thought he had left!

After all, at this time, when Li Gen went out before, he was embarrassed to tell people that he would come back for dinner later, so this misunderstanding was caused.

"Brother Qiang, I found out that there is a family in your village that is very good to start. No, I'll come to you quickly." Li Gen sat directly next to Li Qiang and said excitedly.

He pointed to this and made a lunch for himself. He went out early this morning. He didn't eat any food, and his stomach was growling with hunger.

"Oh, which household is it?" Li Qiang became interested when he heard this.

He has been idle at home for more than a month, and he has not started work or worked. Hearing this, his hands itch immediately.

He had already had enough of the days of recuperating at home, although Xu Xiuying might have felt a little uneasy because she was the one who did it, and did not cut off his meals.

But one of his feet was injured, so he couldn't walk, and couldn't do anything to help him. It was conceivable that he was treated like a handicapped person at home. Basically, three meals a day were old wild vegetables, the kind that didn't have any food. Not to mention the oily meat, that's it, it's still a small bowl. These days, he didn't starve to death, and he was able to survive by relying on the surplus grain he hid in the firewood house.

These objective factors caused Li Qiang's leg to heal very slowly. In fact, his leg injury was not that serious. According to the doctor, his leg was not broken, but some cracks may have been cut on the bone. Ten or 20 days will be fine.

Unfortunately, until now, as long as Li Qiang did some strenuous exercise, such as jumping down from a slightly higher place, the wound would still hurt slightly. Because of this, he hated Xu Xiuying even more.

Every time Li Qiang was too hungry, he would choose to go to Chai Chai to search for the food he had hidden at night, when it was pitch black.

Although there are some food supplements, but the amount is not too much, Li Qiang will still be hungry. No, Li Qiang, who has been lying at home for almost half a month and has been training for more than half a month, now looks really thin. The flesh is gone, the eyes are sunken, and the complexion is sallow. At a glance, I know that I am not less hungry.

Of course, now there are quite a few people in Shanghe Village who are his image, and there are more outside, and life is difficult now, so it is not so conspicuous to look at.

At the same time, Li Qiang didn't know that Xu Xiuying asked Li Ju and Li Juan to give him the meal that had been deducted by the sisters. It was not even a trace of food that would leak from their hands. Therefore, it was sent to Li Qiang. In the bowl that was served, there was only hard and unpalatable old vegetable clapper.

After Li Qiang was hoeed by Xu Xiuying, he injured his foot, and he may not be able to walk easily in the future. After he became lame, the relationship between the couple dropped to a freezing point. In Li Qiang's heart, Xu Xiuying already hated him and gave him specially selected food. It's a normal thing, so he didn't ask, and he wouldn't ask himself for fun, and the question would be fruitless. Maybe he would be kicked out and let him take advantage of his poor behavior He went out to earn food.

"It's the location of the entrance to the village. After all, it's the first household in your village. That household's yard is surrounded by bamboo, and there are many pumpkins planted in the yard. I've seen dozens of them. No one is better than that one. Better to start."

"Think about it, at night, let's open the bamboo door of his house, and then pick the pumpkins carefully by the moonlight. Can this be done?" After saying this, Li Gen turned his eyes to the window of the firewood house. Location, there is a shadow there, obviously, someone is eavesdropping outside.

Li Gen and Li Qiang both know who this person is, Xu Xiuying.

Seeing the dark shadow outside, Li Gen's impression of Xu Xiuying became even worse. This is a thief. To be honest, he has seen many women with such a bad temper, but it is rare for them to reach Xu Xiuying's level.

"It can be done, then all the pumpkins in his family will be ours." Li Qiang clapped his hands and said excitedly, he knew which family Li Gen was talking about.

"I know of that house. There are three people living in the family, and the two have a daughter. It won't be of much use. Even if it is discovered, it won't be a big deal."

"Okay, this is the best." Li Gen also clapped his hands after hearing the good news. This is the best news.

When Xu Xiuying outside learned the content of the conversation between the two, she was also excited. There was not much food at home. If she could go to Wang Jiandang's family and come back from a wave of pumpkins, it would last another month.

Thinking of this, Xu Xiuying immediately put a big smile on her face. After a few minutes, she pushed open the door of the woodshed. Although the people inside already knew that she was eavesdropping, she still needed to cover it up. So as not to get overwhelmed.

"Oh, this is the first time for Brother Li Gen to come to our house. I haven't had a drink yet. I just boiled hot water in the kitchen and put some tea leaves. Come on, come have a cup of tea with me. I'm so sorry. Poor reception, poor reception!"

Of course, she boiled the tea for herself, and kept it in the only kettle at home. When talking with other people in the village over tea, she would take the kettle with her.

Originally, she came to this firewood room to send off the guests. If Li Gen was kind and good-natured, he would not leave. If he insisted on staying here, she would immediately evict the guests.

Now, she has completely dismissed the idea.

"Nothing, nothing, sister-in-law, you are busy." Li Gen waved his hands again and again and said politely.

Afterwards, the three of them walked out of the cramped firewood house in a good atmosphere, chatting and laughing, and went to the firewood house in a very friendly atmosphere.

At noon, Xu Xiuying put five sweet potatoes into wild vegetable soup for the first time. In addition to a plate of small pickles, there was a little butterfly fried peanuts. It was really a little butterfly. There were about 20 pieces in it. The one that didn't even cover the floor shows how much she attaches importance to this "guest".
