Druid's Country Retirement

Chapter 424
As the old saying goes, folks talk nonsense.

I am not surprised that country people use random names, but city people find it ridiculous.

Everyone had a hard time eating the farewell meal.

At the table, the blind man and the Queen were toasting to their parents. It was okay, they could just call them "Grandma" and "Grandma". After all, they were so old, so as long as they called them higher, they would not be wrong.

But when it was the turn to toast Li Hongbing and Shan Xing, the blind man opened his mouth and called out "Master" and "Aunt Xing", which directly disturbed the Queen. It didn't matter if he shouted or not.

Li Hongbing simply set the tone at the table.

From now on, the men in the family will call each other according to their seniority, and the women will call each other according to their own opinions, so as not to make a joke.

Dad will definitely not be happy with it. You, the kid, can change the title that has been passed down from generation to generation. You don’t care whether you are a big or small king.

But my mother was more open-minded, and maybe she liked the meeting gift from the Queen, so she agreed to her son's suggestion on the spot.

"Brother, sister! Let me toast you!"

The queen picked up the wine glass with a smile.

The knot in my heart was untied, and the atmosphere at the table became heated.

The father held his precious granddaughter while eating vegetables, the mother taught Queen Shanxing the secrets of being a charioteer, and Li Hongbing chatted with the blind man and the silly boy about returning to the city.

"Silly boy, have you decided on when to leave the country?"

"Hehe!" The silly boy scratched his head and laughed, but his eyes were fixed on the pig knuckle that Anna was holding and chewing, and his saliva was almost flowing out.

"Forget it, ask your coach later!" Li Hongbing shook his head and put the basin of pork knuckles on the table in front of the silly boy, "Eat it!"

"Thank you, Master!" Silly Boy's face lit up, he grabbed the pig's knuckle and started to chew it.

Li Hongbing envied the silly boy, who was carefree and didn't have to worry about anything. How could he be as miserable as himself, who had to take care of the young after taking care of the old, and had a hard life all his life.

"Where are you, what do you plan to do next?"

The blind man wore sunglasses, lowered his head and thought for a moment, then hesitantly said, "Linda wants me to study abroad, and she will go with me."

what!
Li Hongbing was jealous, what kind of world is this?

I worked hard for this family, got up earlier than a chicken, went to bed later than a dog, and worked more than a donkey. It was better for these two idiots, one went abroad to play ball, and the other went abroad to study.

The Queen, who was eavesdropping next to her, turned around, without the slightest bit of a strong woman's style, and carefully spoke in a negotiating tone.

"Brother Hongbing, Ansheng is still young now. He should learn more. My company and the pharmaceutical factory all need people to manage them. I can rest assured if I use my own people, what do you think?"

Little girl movie.

Play tricks on me.

Li Hongbing waved his hand and joked, "You are not children, just make your own decisions. Blind people don't understand anything. Don't just eat them up and sell them out abroad."

The queen blushed fiercely.

Oh! !

Li Hongbing made a long and meaningful sound, his eyes lingering on the faces of the blind man and the queen. Although the blind man was wearing sunglasses, the corners of his mouth trembled slightly, which had already betrayed his heart.

The queen glared at Li Hongbing shyly and walked up to the blind man unabashedly. The two held hands and retorted, "Yes, An Sheng and I are together. Is there any problem?"

What kind of wolf word is this?
You are together as long as you are together, and you have nothing to do with me.

It was as if I had shouted "Come on, come on, wipe the sweat" from the side.

Li Hongbing rolled his eyes and picked up the wine glass, "I wish you both happiness."

After lunch.

The elderly tour group called and urged the parents to leave quickly, because the first stop of the trip would have a free buffet and free gifts.

go, go!
Everyone packed up their luggage and sent the elders and Anna out. Jiji and Xiong Zai followed behind and howled sadly. They stuck with Anna every day and had long considered Anna to be her sister and mother.

Anna was reluctant to part with him and looked at her father with tears in her eyes. Li Hongbing almost softened his heart.

Jiji is a golden monkey, a national first-level protected animal. It would be a serious crime if he was taken away. The bear cub has lost one of its paws and it is difficult to move.

Counting mom, dad, and Anna, this is a group of old, weak, sick, and disabled people who are still one month shy of getting pregnant before they can get a special bus seat.

The bus was parked in the parking lot. The elders and aunties of the senior group stuck their heads out of the car window and waved small flags in their hands to greet them. A few aunties in particular shouted loudly, and the father's eyebrows flew up in excitement.

"Hold it, mom is still here!" Li Hongbing couldn't see it and reminded in a low voice.

Dad immediately put away his excited expression and took over the luggage with a poker face.

Mom, who was saying goodbye to Shan Xing, didn't notice the change in her dad. Finally, after being urged by several old sisters, she reluctantly hugged Anna and boarded the bus.

"Brother, it seems Anna didn't bring enough clothes."

"It's okay. It's so convenient to buy it directly outside."

"Brother, have you brought the dried dates that Anna likes to eat?"

"I brought it with me and packed several bags."

"elder brother"

"elder brother"

True to that sentence, the mother is worried when her son travels thousands of miles.

Li Hongbing almost collapsed when asked, and directly hugged Shan Xing into his arms.

"Myolie, the car is still far away, why don't you go traveling with your parents?"

Seeing the two of them spreading shit as if no one was around, the queen, the blind man, and the silly boy curled their lips and turned away.

Waiting to return to the old house.

The originally lively courtyard suddenly became deserted.

Hey!
People go tea cold ah!
Li Hongbing let out a long sigh, walked to the old oak tree, lay down in the rocking chair, and let the bear cub stand behind the chair to push him.

Shake, shake, shake.

Shan Xing hugged Jiji and saw Brother Hongbing letting Xiong Zai work. He shook his head helplessly and walked into the warehouse.

After a while, he walked out of the warehouse again, holding a red wooden box in his hand and walked under the tree.

"Brother, look at this quickly."

Li Hongbing turned around and saw that the wooden box contained pieces of exquisite and luxurious gold jewelry, including at least a dozen pieces of bracelets, necklaces, brooches, and earrings.

"Who sent it?"

"I don't know. There is a card here. The name is in Pinyin. I don't recognize it."

The two of them were so busy on the day of the wedding that they had no time to receive gifts, so their sister and brother-in-law helped register them.

Li Hongbing took the card, which said I wish you a happy marriage and the signature was Linda.

"Linda gave it to me, put it away!"

"Brother, there are still a lot of boxes in the warehouse. I can't finish them all by myself." Shan Xing coquettishly took Li Hongbing's arm and shook it.

"Let's go and open the blind box!" Li Hongbing left the rocking chair, and the bear cub sat down on the ground from exhaustion.

When he walked into the warehouse, Li Hongbing saw a pile of large and small gift boxes, no less than 100, and thought of the gift box filled with gold jewelry.

"Be good, if you leave so many things here, you won't be afraid of attracting thieves."

"If there is gold, who dares to steal it!" Shan Xing raised his swan-like neck very domineeringly.

"Yes, yes, guess what's inside?" Li Hongbing picked up a gift box.

Shan Xing said with certainty, "It must be jewelry!"

"What if I guess wrong?" Li Hongbing chuckled, "If I guess wrong, you will wear that dress tonight."

That dress!

Shan Xingruo thought for a moment, and Brother Hongbing must be talking about the clothes with holes in them. The next moment his face turned red, "What if it's jewelry?"

"It's jewelry, I'll wear it to the head office!" Li Hongbing smiled and started to open the gift box. "I'll unwrap it!" Shan Xing snatched it over, as if he was afraid that Li Hongbing would cheat. He unpacked it in a few moments and opened it to see what was inside. His charming face turned even redder.

Li Hongbing stretched his neck to take a look and raised the corners of his mouth, "Remember to wear it at night!"

Inside the rather exquisite packaging box, there is a pair of ceramic water cups. Each cup has a cartoon character on it, which is somewhat similar to Li Hongbing and Shan Xing.

"Who gave me the cup?" He picked up a piece of paper in the box. The handwriting was quite ugly, and it said "Wish Mr. Xing and Aunt Xing love each other, silly boy."

"It doesn't count, it doesn't count! The gift from the silly boy doesn't count." Shan Xing regretted it on the spot and wanted to grab the right cup, but ran into Li Hongbing's arms.

There are many people at home recently, and the two of them are too embarrassed to play ball. Now everyone in the family has run away, leaving only a lonely man and a widow.

Li Hongbing is hungry!
He shouted to Gigi who was playing with a cardboard box, "Jigi, go out and play and close the door."

jiji!

The little golden monkey nodded, ran out of the yard holding the cardboard box, and closed the warehouse door.

"Brother, let's go into the house, please!" Shan Xing's face was red with embarrassment. He knew that a long and difficult competition was coming, but this was the warehouse. He raised his head and prayed, and the water in his eyes was about to overflow.

What kind of place would this situation be?

Playing field ball has the fun of playing field ball.

Let’s play two quarters first and then talk about it.

Li Hongbing arrogantly refused Shan Xing's plea and started to attack, sprinting and dribbling to break through, forcing the defense away, making a layup in three steps, and directly made a hollow ball to score the first two points.

There was a huge disparity in strength between the two sides. Shan Xing could only defend himself and make no use of fouls. Faced with the stormy attack, he could only use shouts to intimidate his opponents and delay the rhythm.

The fierce competition lasted until the moon was above the willow tips.

A game ended in the fifth quarter when Shan Xing's will collapsed and he surrendered.

Li Hongbing felt refreshed and walked into the lounge holding Shan Xing, who was injured due to the violent collision.

As for that dress, I can only regrettably postpone it.

The next day.

The morning mist is lingering and the morning glow fills the sky.

Caogou Village was shrouded in morning fog.

Green water, green mountains, white clouds, villages, and trees are looming in the mist, which is spectacular, like a beautiful ink painting.

Whoa whoa!
A colorful rooster stands on the roof, stretching its neck and crowing loudly.

The fog is clear in the morning, the fog is overcast in the evening, and it is foggy and rainy at noon.

Putting on his coat and walking out of the main room, Li Hongbing stretched himself comfortably. It was a sunny day today.

Wolf Dog, Jin Zi, Ji Ji, and Xiong Zai were very surprised why Li Hongbing got up this morning instead of Shan Xing’s mother.

"Go and play by yourself. Mother Xing is not feeling well today." Li Hongbing waved his hand and heard something hit on the bedroom window. Judging from the shape, it should be a pillow or something.

Li Hongbing smiled and walked into the kitchen.

Make a fire and boil water for cooking.

soon.

A pot of golden corn grits is out of the pot, and the leftover pork knuckles from yesterday are heated up. Today they are forage. Only after they are full can they have strength.

Send a loving breakfast to Shan Xing who is bedridden.

Li Hongbing put on his straw hat and pitchfork and shouted towards the bedroom.

"Myolie, I'm going to work. I'll come back at noon to cook for you."

boom!
Another pillow hit the window.

Women are really strange animals.

They were obviously enjoying themselves, but they acted like they were being wronged.

who!
Get cheap and sell well.

Li Hongbing shook his head, hummed a tune, and walked out with a pitchfork.

The air on the meadow ground is cold, making it easy for water vapor to condense to form a large amount of morning fog. These morning fogs follow the Qingshui River and cling to the meadow, covering the meadow with a thick layer of fog, exposing only the high hills.

The morning mist rolls back and forth in the breeze, like icebergs and snow peaks, Penglai fairyland, and mirages, making people feel as if they are in heaven.

Li Hongbing sat on the grass slope and enjoyed the beautiful scenery that is rarely seen in the city.

Gradually, the sun rose, and thousands of golden lights penetrated the morning fog, bringing infinite vitality and vitality.

"Brother, here we come!"

"Brother Red Soldier, why don't you get up so early?"

"Wocao, the meadow has such a beautiful scenery in the morning."

A loud noise sounded, destroying the beautiful scenery of the meadow and sea of ​​fog.

Li Hongbing turned around and saw a huge team of hard workers.

The four unlucky brothers, Brother Dalang's gang of people waiting to die, Silly Boy, Blind Man, Da Kui, Tiezhu, Lao Gen and some other villagers.

Originally, there were the Dajin Lianzi gang and the young man who destroyed the meadow. Li Hongbing thought about a good marriage, so he gave them amnesty and let them go, and they went back to their homes to find their mothers.

"Why are you all here!" Li Hongbing just planned to find Brother Dalang, Hongqi and the others to work, leaving a group of people with nothing to do and running into the mountains and forests to seek death.

Unexpectedly, Tie Zhu and the others also followed.

"If Hongqi hadn't said that you were going to get fodder today, you wouldn't have told us, why, you wouldn't look down on us old guys when it comes to getting married." Fu Sheng teased dissatisfiedly.

"No way, I'm asking so many of you for help. I'm afraid the pigs at home won't be enough to eat." Li Hongbing deliberately cried about poverty.

"Hey, just based on your words, I have to do it today." Laogen said with a smile on his face.

Shuisheng even pretended to be greedy.

"Stop talking nonsense and get to work quickly. After killing the pig, my mouth is drooling!"

Everyone laughed and walked along the grass slope towards the meadow.

It was the turn of a bunch of dandies to eat and die. They didn’t have the farm tools in their hands. Instead, they were carrying boxes and bags. They didn’t look like they were here to work.

"Brother, brother, where are the rabbits and the pheasants?" Brother Dalang looked around impatiently.

Li Hongbing was speechless. Yesterday he vowed with all his heart that he would help, but today he was looking for wild animals when they met.

"Are you here to work or to hunt?"

"It must be for work." Brother Dalang noticed the slip of the tongue and explained with a guilty conscience.

Wait until everyone comes to the lawnmower.

The fog on the meadow has been dispersed by the sunshine. The sky is clear, the grass is green, and there is an endless sea of ​​green.

"Uncle Red Soldier, what should we do?"

The villagers who came to help rolled up their sleeves and almost spit in their hands.

Li Hongbing looked at the distance of the meadow and said, "Start from here and fight all the way to the backwater bay in front. Who knows how to drive the lawn mower?"

"I can!" Li Hongqi raised her hand in the crowd.

Li Hongbing nodded, "Then you come and start the machine, hit straight, don't go astray, and the rest of us will pull the haystack back to the barn and start working."

Boom!

Black smoke spewed from the lawnmower exhaust pipe.

As soon as the machine sounds, ten thousand taels of gold.

The lush and juicy weeds are all harvested into the machine's belly, and when spit out, they turn into neat haystacks.
