Druid's Country Retirement

Chapter 299
The flustered Li Hongbing returned to the rice field, holding a glass bottle in his arms, took out a piece of honey nest and ate it.

The beeswax on the surface of the honeycomb is also edible, and it tastes crunchy. Take a bite of the beeswax, and the golden yellow honey slides into your mouth like jelly.

Instant sweetness fills the whole body, and the air is filled with rich floral fragrance.

Hey!
The bear cubs howled around Li Hongbing. Facts proved that bears had no resistance to honey. Four wolfhounds found it after smelling the scent, wagging their tails.

"Father, what are you eating?" Anna ran up to Li Hongbing, raised her head, blinked her big eyes, and the little golden monkey in her arms let out a whimper.

Nannan didn't directly say that she wanted to eat, but instead used Sister Cui as an excuse.

"Uncle Train, Teacher Cui said that we should learn to share."

share?

dream.

Who said the hive I built was ugly.

I hold a grudge.

Li Hongbing turned his back and continued to munch on the delicious bear honey.

"Aunt Shan Xing, Dad bullied others, and after beating you bullied us again." Seeing this, Anna ran to Shan Xing's side, holding hands and shaking her like a baby.

"Yeah yeah!"

Nannan took Shanxing's other hand, shaking it like a baby.

Why did you bring up the beating again?

Shan Xing blushed, she dragged the two girls to Li Hongbing, and stared.

"Bring it."

"Take something..." Li Hongbing pretended to be stupid on purpose.

Shan Xing stepped forward to snatch the glass bottle, and rolled her eyes, "You are so grown up, you are still like a child."

After speaking, he took out two pieces of honey nest from the glass jar and handed them to the girls, "Eat it quickly."

"Aunt Shanxing is the best."

"Thank you auntie."

The two girls flattered Shan Xing, and they still didn't forget to make faces for Li Hongbing, and stuffed the honey nest into their mouths, their eyes turned into crescent moons.

"Silly boy, this is yours." Shan Xing didn't forget the staring silly boy, and handed him the last piece of honey nest in the jar.

After dividing the honey nests, seeing some honey scum left in the glass bottle, Shan Xing mixed some warm water into it to dissolve, and poured some for the animals, except for himself.

Hey, silly woman.

He always thinks about his family and never thinks about himself.

Li Hongbing took the empty jar, went to the vegetable garden alone, and found the queen bee, "Can I get some more honey?"

Buzz!
The queen bee took him to a place where honey was stored.

Dig up the soil, take out the honey nest and return to the rice field.

Seeing that Dad took back the honey again, the eyes of the two girls, the silly boy and the animals suddenly lit up and surrounded them.

"What are you doing?" Li Hongbing's expression changed, his eyebrows were raised up, but his mouth was grinning down, as if I was very angry.

Everyone stopped and couldn't help shivering. It was the first time seeing their father angry would be so scary. The little golden monkey jumped out of Anna's arms in fright and ran into the warehouse to find Mama Bear for protection.

"Brother, why are you scaring the child?" Shan Xing came over, and Anna and her daughter hid behind them in fright.

hum!

Li Hongbing suppressed the anger in his heart, pointed at the apricot, and looked at the girl, the silly boy, and the animals.

"What are you doing?"

"Why are you so selfish, you only want to eat honey by yourself, what about Aunt Shan Xing?"

"Make clothes, cook, clean the house, wash the kennel, what are you doing? Oh, you eat good things, let Shanxing do all the work, right?"

"Everyone is selfish and enjoys what they get. You guys did things like that at home, and you still hate this and that, especially you Anna, you think that with grandparents and aunt Shan Xing who dotes on you, you can stretch out your clothes and open your mouth when you have food, and you can be lawless. "

"When you have good things, you only think about yourself and don't think about others. I have noticed this sign for a long time. I thought that you would change as you grow up. Who knew that the bigger you are, the more you will go too far. You have let me down so much."

Li Hongbing reprimanded each sentence, each sentence became heavier and louder.

The children and animals bowed their heads, especially Anna's tears fell to the ground.

Shan Xing stood there at a loss, and quickly picked up Anna and complained to Li Hongbing, "Brother, what are you talking about, it scared the child to tears."

Ugh!
Originally, Li Hongbing didn't want to say such a serious word, but he got angry. He managed the children to use the free-range method, which caused the children to have no big and small kings in their hearts. Many people in the village sued him, saying that Anna was about to become a small village tyrant, chasing chickens with their children Chasing the dog and causing trouble, I just took this opportunity to beat and beat.

As the saying goes, adoptive sons who are not educated will harm the three generations, especially daughters. If they are not properly educated, they will harm their parents, husbands and children.

Anna can be poor in her studies, but she must have moral character. There are too many temptations in society, and she will fall into it if she is not careful.

By the way, clean up the animals too. Li Hongbing’s consistent principle is that the animals raised at home are free to come and go, not restrained, not imprisoned, and not violent. They are like five yellow-throated minks. When they grow up, they leave the old house and return to the forest. There are Baizui and Goshawk, the couple traveled to the mountains.

In addition to Dahua, who is sensible, there are one and two others in the family, especially Erhei and Sanhui, the two rebellious sons.

"Aunt Shanxing, I'm sorry, I shouldn't be selfish." Nannan stood up and apologized while choking.

"It's okay, it's okay." Shan Xing hugged Anna and quickly comforted her, and Anna leaned into Shan Xing's ear to admit her mistake.

The other animals also walked up to Shan Xing and bowed their heads and whimpered.

After apologizing, Li Hongbing didn't know how to end it, and the atmosphere in the rice field suddenly cooled down.

at this time.

The cell phone rang, and Li Hongbing quickly connected it. He hurriedly said that he would come right away, and then hung up the cell phone, "Uncle Huai Zhong called for a drink at night, and I won't be at home for dinner."

After all, he walked out of the yard almost as if fleeing.

Standing outside the gate, Li Hongbing heaved a sigh of relief.

Likewise, all the people and animals on the paddy field breathed a sigh of relief.

"Aunt Shan Xing, I was wrong, and I will correct it." Anna put her arms around Shan Xing's neck and murmured softly.

It was rare for Li Hongbing to enter the village alone, and the villagers who were rushing home for dinner joked a lot.

"Commander Dog, where are your soldiers?"

"Hey, Uncle Hongbing is a private visit from Weifu, why don't you go to my house and have a drink!"

"Uncle Hongbing, you have so many dogs, give me one too."

Being teased, Li Hongbing was not annoyed, and went back with a smile.

It’s like this in the countryside. If people are willing to greet you, they agree. If they don’t say hello, they will run away when they meet.

When I came to Uncle Huaizhong's house, I saw Li Youcai, the second son of Uncle Huaizhong's family, waiting at the door.

When Li Youcai saw Li Hongbing, he hurried down the steps, "Uncle Hongbing, why did you come here? All the uncles are here, so I'm missing you. Dad told me to wait for you at the door."

"What's the matter with your father today, let me know!" Li Hongbing asked with a smile.

Li Youcai waved his hands again and again, "I don't know, my father never tells me anything."

Seeing that he couldn't get any news, Li Hongbing walked into the yard and saw a table with eight immortals on the rice field, with vegetables on the table, and Uncle Huaizhong, Tie Zhu, Dakui, Lao Gen, Shuisheng, and Chunsheng sat beside them and smoked. nonsense.

"Yo, the lord has come, I'm so hungry that my waistband is loose." Uncle Huai Zhong took out a cigarette and stepped forward to greet him.

After receiving the cigarette, Li Hongbing glanced down at the cigarette box and joked, "It's ok, Village Chief Li. They all smoked on Hongta Mountain, and their consciousness has risen."

"Where is it? Mayor Zhao gave it to me before I came back. I don't want it. He insisted on giving it to me." As he spoke, Li Huaizhong had a look on his face.

The mayor took the initiative to smoke. It is estimated that no one in the entire forest area has enjoyed this kind of treatment.

"Uncle Red Soldier!"

"Uncle Red Soldier!"

"Uncle Red Soldier!"

Others stepped forward to say hello one after another. Seeing that everyone was present, Li Huaizhong quickly seated everyone. At this moment, Li Hongbing and Li Huaizhong walked to the main seat at the same time.

The two were stunned for a moment, but Li Huaizhong immediately remembered Zhao Mingguo's advice, smiled on his face, leaned over and wiped the stool, "Youcai just took the stool out of the firewood room, and didn't even wipe the ashes. Young people just fool around when they do things. , Red Soldier, sit down."

Li Hongbing was also polite, and sat down with a smile.

Blame me!
Youcai, who was inexplicably blamed, walked into the kitchen silently.

All of you here are smart people. If you want to talk about things in the city, they may not understand, but they can recite the rules of seniority, dignity, and face in the countryside with their eyes closed.

In the scene just now, it is said that Li Huaizhong must be the main seat. First, he is the convener, and second, he is the head of the village, managing the affairs of the village, especially after the village has received the contract money for the meadow. Even if Li Huaizhong wanted to do something unhealthy, it was not impossible. After all, there were many left-behind women in the village.

But when Uncle Hongbing sits like this, it means that no matter how awesome Li Huaizhong is, he has to admit that Uncle Hongbing is superior to him in the village, and what Uncle Hongbing will say in the future will also be superior to him.

"Sit, all sit!" Li Hongbing raised his hand to signal everyone.

After everyone sat down, Li Hongbing looked at Li Huaizhong on the left, "Uncle Huaizhong, let's start!"

Li Huaizhong picked up the wine and poured it first for Li Hongbing, then for the others, and finally for himself.

Pick up the wine glass.

"It's not a big deal. This afternoon, the credit union in the town called and said that the dividend money from the village this year will be credited to the account. Let me get it tomorrow. It's hundreds of thousands. Only Uncle Hongbing has a car in our village. Everyone has worked hard to follow along." Go get the money back and send it to everyone!"

Dividend money is back!

Everyone at the table was beaming with joy.

"What time will I leave tomorrow, I'll get up early."

"What's the hard work, it's a good thing, who wouldn't like to send money."

"That's right, whoever has trouble with money, Uncle Hongbing, call the idiot tomorrow, he is strong enough to carry the money."

Hundreds of thousands can weigh as much, and it's not a gold bar, and let the idiot do it.

Li Hongbing smiled and said no problem.

Li Huaizhong raised his hand and pressed down, "It's one thing to distribute the money, and there's another thing. I'm thinking about making the village lively. You go to Shuanggou Village to fight and show the prestige of our Caogou Village. It happens that the money will be distributed tomorrow. There is a big banquet in the village, and the two things are done together.",

"The village committee paid all the expenses for the grand meeting, what do you think?"

Another big seat.

In just a short time, the village held two big banquets. The first time was to retrieve the four unlucky red flags, and the second time was to renovate the old house of Uncle Hongbing. Now the village committee paid for another big banquet.

In the past ten years, the total number of seats held this year has not been as many as this year.

Days seem to be getting better.

"Do it, of course it has to be done, I agree."

"I also agree. Once the money is distributed, it should be lively."

"It's a good thing. Since Uncle Red Soldier came back, our village is getting better and better." Da Kui flattered him.

"Okay, let's put it this way. Let your mother-in-law gather at the rice field at the entrance of the village tomorrow. Fusheng, pull two pigs, and Lao Gen, you also pull three sheep. If you want to do it, do it well, don't pick and choose, drink wine!"

Li Huaizhong raised his cup and drank it down.

"Dry!"

The others, including Li Hongbing, picked up their wine glasses and took a sip.

Then it was time to remember bitterness and sweetness, and bragging time. With the help of alcohol, a few gentlemen recalled the past suffering years, while looking forward to a better life tomorrow, as they talked, tears flowed out.

Li Hongbing played himself as a loyal audience, listening to them reminiscing over and over again the past events that they could not let go of. When they heard the happy part, they picked up the wine glass and walked away. When they heard the sad part, they picked up the wine glass and walked away again.

Unknowingly, the moon rose overhead.

The banquet was over, maybe because of the money distribution tomorrow, everyone drank a lot, but no one was drunk, they made an appointment to meet, and each of them staggered and disappeared in the village alley.

When Li Hongbing returned home, the courtyard was completely silent.

As in the past, a woman sat quietly under the eaves lamp, mending clothes, waiting for the man to come home.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Shan Xing raised her head, put the dustpan aside, stood up and walked to Li Hongbing, smelling the smell of wine, frowned, "Drink less wine, get drunk and walk at night in the middle of the night, what if you fall? There is hot water in the house."

Hearing the familiar nagging sound, very much like the old lady nagging his father, Li Hongbing smirked with the strength of wine, suddenly picked up the apricot by the waist, and strode towards the bedroom.

Shan Xing exclaimed, knowing what was about to happen, she blushed and hugged Brother Hongbing's neck tightly.

Dahua led the wolf dogs back into the darkness silently, and the three noisy bear cubs wanted to follow up to watch the fun, but they were stopped by the mother bear halfway, slapped each bear and slapped them into the den.

No sleep for one night.

In the early morning, there was a faint white light on the horizon, and a light mist shrouded Caogou Village.

Li Hongbing carefully moved his arm out from under Shan Xing's head, and a slight movement woke Shan Xing up.

"Brother, get up so early and leave, I'll make you breakfast." Recovering the gap last night, Shan Xing knew that Li Hongbing was going to town this morning, propping up his exhausted body, his arms gave way and fell down.

Li Hongbing chuckled, quite satisfied with his fighting power, he lowered his head and lightly pecked Shan Xing on the forehead.

"No, Dakui said that breakfast is included. We'll go early and come back early, and you'll sleep in later, and help out at the rice farm at the entrance of the village later. By the way, we've packed the dishes for the banquet today, and I'll ask Uncle Yandai to deliver it."

Shan Xing nodded and yawned tiredly.

Walking out of the bedroom, the idiot just came back from the vegetable field. These days, the oak trees have a lot of vegetables, and the harvest time is an hour earlier.

"Silly boy, let's go to the town with me, and Dahua will be with me."

Li Hongbing beckoned, and took the silly boy and Dahua out of the old house on a three-wheeled motorcycle.

Arrive at the entrance of the village.

Da Kui and the others have been waiting for a long time.

Seeing them holding shovels in their hands and hatchets hanging from their waists, Li Hongbing looked helpless.

It's not going to fight, why bring a guy?

Da Kui handed over the breakfast, "Uncle Hong Bing, here are the pancakes baked by Gui Feng, and the pickles are still hot."

Li Hongbing took the pancakes, distributed most of them to Shawa, and finished eating the pickles in a hurry.

Pulling a car and driving out of Caogou Village, they disappeared into the mist.
