Siheyuan: A Very Happy Era

Chapter 490 Although a little bit smaller
After a while, Xu Yuping finally couldn't help but break the deadlock. She squatted on the ground and said earnestly:
"My dear, it's not that I don't support you. You saw it before. Your brother Qiangzi doesn't agree! If you keep making trouble like this and make him angry, what good will it do us?
What should we do if he really doesn’t care about us mother and daughter anymore in the future?
Also, even if your brother Qiangzi agrees to you for the sake of mom and your grandma, do you think that the two of us mother and daughter will still be liked by your brother Qiangzi from the bottom of his heart in the future?

Not to mention, your sister Juanzi is a person who cannot tolerate any grain of sand in her eyes. If she knew that you were acting like this, would you still be able to please her in the future?

Have you ever thought about these questions?"

"I"

When Zhu Caixia heard this series of questions, she was stunned for a moment and had no idea how to answer.

After all, she is just a little girl in her teens. How could she understand so many ways of the world?

The reason why she dared to make such a fuss was simply because she relied on Xu Yuping's favor towards her and the relationship that Li Guoqiang had developed with her over the years.

Of course, there is a little bit of girlish willfulness in this.

However, she never imagined that her actions would lead to such serious consequences.

When she thought that she and Xu Yuping might be driven away by Li Guoqiang, she couldn't help feeling a little panic.

Then, she suddenly came to her senses, grabbed Xu Yuping's hand, and asked anxiously, "Mom, what should I do now?"

"Humph!"

Seeing this, Xu Yuping was amused, then she snorted and said, "You're anxious now? Weren't you quite angry just now? You said that no matter who came, it would be useless. Why don't you say anything now?"

"mom!"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Caixia couldn't help but stamp her feet and shouted in shame and anger.

At the same time, she felt a deep sense of regret in her heart.

If she had known the consequences would be so serious, she would not have dared to do it even if she had ten times the courage!
When she thought that there was a big possibility that she would return to the days when she didn't have enough to eat and was beaten every day, she couldn't help feeling a pang of fear in her heart.

You know, the reason why she fell in love with Li Guoqiang was because Li Guoqiang could give her a life of ease and freedom without having to worry about food and clothing!
"okay!"

Seeing that Zhu Caixia really understood the seriousness of the matter, Xu Yuping stopped teasing her and waved her hand hastily, saying, "Go and admit your mistake to your brother Qiangzi later and promise not to pester him like this again. I believe he will definitely forgive you."

"This"

When Zhu Caixia heard this, she opened her mouth hesitantly.

"What?"

Seeing this, Xu Yuping's face darkened, and she said with some dissatisfaction: "You still don't give up now?"

"mom!"

Zhu Caixia pouted, and then said pitifully: "I really like Brother Qiangzi, and I also want to be with you for the rest of my life!"

"Ugh!"

Xu Yuping felt a little soft-hearted when she heard this, then she sighed and said, "I know you like your brother Qiangzi, and I also know you are filial to your mother, but many things are not what you want.

In my opinion, you should not be so anxious for now. Wait a few years, when you have really grown up, then it won’t be too late to consider this matter again!"

"That"

After hearing this, Zhu Caixia looked down at her toes, then nodded reluctantly and said, "Okay then! I'll listen to you."

"now it's right!"

Xu Yuping felt relieved when she saw that Zhu Caixia was finally convinced, and then she praised her with some joy.

After saying that, she didn't waste any time and quickly packed all the vegetables she had picked, then took Zhu Caixia back home.

At this time, Li Guoqiang had just finished washing up with the help of Zhu Caiyan, and was about to go into the mountains to see if the bees were waking up from hibernation. He saw Zhu Caixia walking up to him with her head lowered, her two little hands still kneading the corners of her clothes, looking very nervous.

Seeing this situation, Li Guoqiang didn't say anything, nor did he turn away. He just looked at Zhu Caixia quietly.

"Brother Qiangzi!"

Seeing that Li Guoqiang did not scold her, Zhu Caixia calmed down a little, then pursed her lips and said softly: "I know I was wrong, please don't be angry with me, okay?
I promise I will never mess with you again."

After saying that, she raised her head slightly and looked at Li Guoqiang somewhat nervously, with a hint of expectation in her eyes.

Originally, according to what Xu Yuping said, she was going to promise Li Guoqiang that she would no longer bother him.

However, when the time came, she was still a little unwilling to accept it, so she took the initiative and changed her words to say that she would stop making trouble.

In this way, she would have the opportunity to stay with Li Guoqiang.

"Do you really know you were wrong?"

Li Guoqiang looked at Zhu Caixia's expression carefully, then asked with some suspicion.

Based on his understanding of Zhu Caixia, he knew that she was not someone who would easily change her target.

Especially since she had already made the move of sacrificing herself to feed the tiger, how could she give up so easily?
"real!"

Seeing that Li Guoqiang didn't believe her, Zhu Caixia nodded hastily and said in a louder voice, "I really know I was wrong. I will listen to you and not make you angry in the future."

After she finished speaking, she saw that Li Guoqiang didn't say anything. She was anxious and quickly stepped forward, took Li Guoqiang's hand, shook it gently, and then said in a delicate voice: "Brother Qiangzi, can you forgive me this time? Please!"

"Alright, alright!"

Seeing this, Li Guoqiang couldn't help but roll his eyes, and then said unhappily: "Since you know you are wrong, then I believe you. I hope you can really be obedient and be a good child in the future!"

I'm not a child!
Although a little bit smaller
When Zhu Caixia heard what Li Guoqiang said, she pouted slightly and muttered in her heart somewhat unhappily.

"What? You don't want to?"

Li Guoqiang frowned when he saw Zhu Caixia didn't say anything, then asked in a deep voice.

"no!"

When Zhu Caixia heard this, she came to her senses immediately, nodded quickly and said, "I do, of course I do!"

"Ok!"

Li Guoqiang's expression relaxed, then he nodded and said, "That's it for now! I still have things to do!"

After saying that, he started walking towards the outside of the yard.

"Hey!"

At this time, Xu Yuping, who was standing not far away and observing carefully, saw Li Guoqiang was about to leave, and hurriedly shouted: "Qiangzi, dinner is about to start, where are you going?" "It's okay!"

Upon hearing this, Li Guoqiang waved his hand without even turning his head and said, "You guys eat first! I want to go to the mountains before the sun comes out to see how the wild bees are recovering from hibernation."

As soon as he finished speaking, his figure disappeared at the gate of the courtyard.

Seeing this, Xu Yuping didn't want to chase after him and interfere with Li Guoqiang's business, so she could only turn around and ask Zhu Caixia how her conversation with Li Guoqiang went.

When she learned from Zhu Caixia that Li Guoqiang had agreed to reveal the matter this time, she immediately felt relieved. She then hurriedly took Zhu Caixia to explain the situation to Ma Shufen, Zhu Caiyan and others, so that they would not have any other thoughts.

Afterwards, she went to the next yard and called Qu Yinfeng and Xu Dani to come for breakfast.

After they finished breakfast, Xu Yuliang and Xu Guanglu suddenly came to their door.

"Hey! Captain, Uncle Guanglu, why are you here?"

Seeing this, Xu Yuping hurriedly stepped forward and asked.

"that."

Hearing this, Xu Yuliang first glanced at the moist luster on Xu Yuping's face, with a hint of something strange flashing in his eyes, and then he laughed and said, "Everyone knows that Qiangzi is back, and they are anxious to know how to do the next work, so they asked us to come over and ask."

"Oh!"

After listening to this, Xu Yuping nodded in realization, and then said a little embarrassedly: "Then you are a step late. Qiangzi has already gone out. He said he wanted to go into the mountains to see the situation of the hibernating wild peaks."

"That's okay!"

When Xu Yuliang heard that Li Guoqiang was going into the mountains to see the wild peaks, his eyes lit up slightly, and then he waved his hand and said, "Since he has something to do, let's arrange for everyone to go to the fields to work first, and we'll talk about it after they get back from work in the evening."

After saying that, they turned around and left without waiting for Xu Yuping to say anything.

As they walked, they were still expressing their admiration for Li Guoqiang, who was indeed a man who got things done.

It's only the second day since I got back, and I'm already going into the mountains to work so early.

Little did he know that this was a piece of cake for Li Guoqiang.

Before the sun had completely risen from the other side of the mountain, he had already explored the general situation of the wild peaks in the early morning.

The final result surprised him a little.

He originally thought that after last year's cleanup, the number of wild peaks in this forest should be reduced a lot.

He had even secretly decided to use the bee colonies from the private apiary to make up for the shortfall.

However, what he didn't expect was that the number of wild peaks in this forest was not much less than last year.

If we could dig out all these wild peaks, and then amplify them tenfold with Jin Daddy's help, we would be able to get at least three thousand nests of bees.

With so many beehives, not to mention supplementing the first apiary and contracting them out to the villagers in the five production brigades, there would be no problem at all in setting up two more apiaries.

Of course, in order to avoid arousing suspicion, he could not dig all the dirt on these wild mountains by himself, but instead needed to leave more than half of them to the villagers of Jinshanbao to dig.

In this way, we might be able to get about five or six hundred hives of bees in the end, which is just enough to meet the subsequent needs.

Soon, he marked the locations of all the wild mountain nests that had been discovered, and then used teleportation to rush to the villa in the deep mountains.

At this time, since all the snow in the mountains had melted, the small mountain stream in front of the villa in the deep mountains has also regained its previous gurgling sound, making people feel a sense of tranquility and far-reaching peace when they hear it.

In addition, he could also see that some land had been reclaimed beside the mountain stream and some vegetables, fruits and melons had been planted.

One can imagine how charming it will be when midsummer arrives, with the sweet fragrance of the lush vegetables and fruits wafting in the mountain breeze.

Instantly, an idea popped into his mind. He wanted to bring his nine sons, who had just learned to walk, here in the summer to experience the joy of the countryside.

He can even swim and play in this creek with his wife and children, catch fish, and touch shrimps and crabs. Isn't that fun?

The only troublesome thing was that at that time, Xiangmi Zhai's business was quite busy, so it was not convenient for Shang Xiuzhen, Pan Qiaoyan and others to come back.

Unless he can use his little world to take care of them, this kind of thing can only be thought about.

Fortunately, there are still four or five months before midsummer, so there is no need to be so anxious.

Soon, he turned his attention to the villa in the mountains, and immediately saw the sika deer tied in the yard.

Because the snow in the mountains has melted and there are no mountain roads, this elk is naturally of no use.

People even have to spend some effort to get food to feed it.

Just when he was planning to go back to Jinshan Fort later to take the sika deer away and then let it graze in his small world, he suddenly saw a familiar figure running out from the bushes not far to his left.

Moreover, he was holding something in his arms and had a happy smile on his face.

The next moment, the smile froze on his face and his eyes widened, as if he had been frightened by something.

Seeing this situation, Li Guoqiang felt happy and waved to the other party.

"Brother Qiangqiangzi, you are finally back!"

When Sanwazi saw Li Guoqiang's actions, he immediately came to his senses, cheered excitedly, and ran towards Li Guoqiang.

After a while, he ran in front of Li Guoqiang, and then circled around Li Guoqiang with a happy face, like a wild monkey in the mountains.

"okay!"

Seeing this, Li Guoqiang couldn't help but said with a smile: "You're almost making me dizzy, why don't you stop now!"

"Oh!"

When Sanwazi heard this, he stopped immediately, then scratched his scalp embarrassedly.

Then, he seemed to have thought of something, and hurriedly took out a handful of black and red mulberries from the pocket of his rolled-up clothes, and handed them to Li Guoqiang as if he was offering a treasure, and said:
"Brother Qiangzi, look what I found?"

"Yo!"

Li Guoqiang took one look and immediately asked in surprise: "Where did you pick these mulberries? Each one of them is almost as big as my finger."

As he spoke, he reached out and picked up a mulberry that was already ripe and somewhat black and translucent, threw it into his mouth, and then gently bit it with his teeth.

In an instant, a sour, sweet and fragrant juice spread in his mouth, making him reveal a comfortable expression.
