Era: My backyard is the garbage dump of the universe

Chapter 289: Little Nuomi’s New Friend
At the gate, Li Bayi saw Liu Qingsong and Liu Lijuan coming out. After saying something to Li Fenfen, he went to greet them: "Qingsong, I'm here to purchase supplies for Wang Cuihua's funeral."

"Really? Let's chat inside the room." Liu Qingsong stretched out his hand and made an invitation gesture.

"Dad! The food will be ready soon. Let's have dinner first before leaving." Li Fenfen also said.

“No need to eat.” Li Bayi rejected Li Fenfen’s kindness and did not enter the house: “It’s like this…” He told her truthfully about how Wang Dakang took people to the supply and marketing cooperative to purchase supplies and finally returned empty-handed, and how Li Zhongkui asked him for help.

Wait until Liu Qingsong understood.

Li Bayi continued, "Wang Cuihua's funeral cannot be held without sugar and other important supplies. Qingsong, can you please ask your second sister to help my eldest brother for my sake?"

"This..." Liu Qingsong looked at Liu Lijuan.

Li Fenfen frowned.

But she didn't say much, after all, she could understand how difficult her father's current situation was.

"I'm sorry, I can't help you in the current situation." Liu Lijuan guessed what Liu Qingsong was thinking when he looked at her, so she didn't waste any words and directly rejected Li Bayi's request.

"Why?" Li Bayi couldn't help but ask, "If it's because of Wang Dakang, I can apologize to you on behalf of my eldest brother."

"It's not because of Wang Dakang, but from three o'clock in the afternoon, sugar and other supplies in the Dongfanghong Farmers' Market have also been controlled. Even if I am the supervisor, I cannot commit a crime against the wind." Liu Lijuan replied softly.

"Okay!" Li Bayi smiled awkwardly.

He knew that what Liu Lijuan said was true, so he didn't say anything more. Instead, he turned around and pushed his bicycle away.

"Dad..." Li Fenfen stepped forward and held Li Bayi: "Can't you just have dinner before leaving?"

"But..." Li Bayi hesitated to speak.

"How about this?" Liu Lijuan suddenly said, "You stay and have dinner with Fenfen. I'll write you an address and you can go there to buy sugar tomorrow."

“But the price is a little expensive.”

"I estimate that it will cost at least 1.78 yuan per pound to buy it."

"So expensive?" Li Bayi was surprised.

"Then just pretend I didn't say anything." Liu Lijuan smiled.

"No! No! I have to buy it now no matter how expensive it is!" Li Bayi said: "My eldest brother's family is not without money. Even if it is two yuan per catty, twenty catties of sugar is only forty yuan."

"That's right." Liu Lijuan nodded.

"Then Dad, please come in and sit down. Have dinner before leaving." Li Fenfen pulled Li Bayi and walked towards the gate.

Liu Qingsong and Liu Lijuan looked at each other and followed behind.

……

Finished dinner.

After getting the address to buy sugar, Li Bayi rode away on his 28-inch bicycle.

Liu Qingsong, who had sent the child to the intersection, turned around and walked towards Pangdun's house just in case.

In the backyard, Old Jiang was making a decoction for Tomoto Sakurako. When he saw Liu Qingsong coming, he greeted him with a smile: "Qingsong, you're here just in time. I have something to tell you."

"You say." Liu Qingsong moved a chair and sat down.

"That's right! I think that Yamei has a high talent for studying medicine, so I want to take her as my apprentice. What do you think?" Old Jiang picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for Liu Qingsong, then whispered what he wanted to say.

"Why are you asking me for my opinion on this matter?" Liu Qingsong couldn't help laughing after understanding what Jiang Lao meant. "You should ask the mute sister. I can't interfere with her in anything."

"I have asked the mute girl, and she wants you to help make a decision." Old Jiang replied.

"Is that so?" Liu Qingsong nodded: "The mute girl wants to learn medicine from you, but Sixth Grandpa is not here, and she is afraid that others will gossip about her."

"Who dares to gossip about me when I'm studying medicine?" Old Jiang shook his head in amusement: "Then I'll ask the mute girl to come and help me tomorrow. This is settled."

"Okay!" Liu Qingsong nodded. Seeing that there was no one else in the backyard, he spoke softly and briefly told him about Li Bayi asking him to help purchase sugar.

After Jiang Lao understood, he continued, "Grandpa Jiang, my second sister used her position to purchase supplies for Zhou Mazi's funeral with good intentions. Now I am worried that if I don't help Li Zhongkui, some villains will interfere. You..."

The words are not finished yet.

Jiang Lao interrupted him with a smile: "You don't have to worry about this, because the Ye family is in charge of all matters related to this. No matter how much sugar your second sister sells, no one dares to do anything to her."

"Oh!" Liu Qingsong breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'll tell you the truth!" Jiang Lao became serious. "In fact, we are not short of sugar at all now. We need it to deal with the conflict with the Monkey Kingdom next month."

"Oh!" Liu Qingsong suddenly realized.

If that's the case, the control on sugar will be lifted soon, and he doesn't have to worry about his second sister at all.

Seeing that everything that needed to be said had been said, Liu Qingsong was about to say goodbye to Jiang Lao, but the little rascal appeared running with his short legs: "Brother, brother... Go outside and have a look, there are so many big cars coming!"

"Really?" Liu Qingsong and Old Jiang looked at each other, then stood up and walked out of the backyard.

There were indeed several military jeeps and trucks at the grain drying field in front of the Pangdun's house. They were lined up in a row, blocking the road leading to Liu Qingsong's house.

But the children who were watching the fun, such as Xiao Nuomi, Yaomei, Wang Ba, Ye Xiaoxiao, Pangdun and others, were very happy. Ye Xiaoxiao even climbed into the cargo box of the military truck to help carry things.

Liu Qingsong, who walked out of the gate, was somewhat surprised when he saw this scene.

But Old Jiang stroked his beard and smiled: "Qingmei, are you back?"

"Well, I'm back." Ye Qingmei crawled out from the back seat of a military jeep, carrying luggage in her hands.

The luggage belonged to Liu Qingxu, and he was carrying a package on his shoulders.

Behind Liu Qingxu was Liu Qingshui.

Look at the big and small bags they carry.

This is because they came back early with other members of the Liu family.

After Liu Qingsong realized what was happening, he quickly went over to him and said, "Brother Qingxu, are my parents back?"

"Not yet! They may not be back for a few days." Liu Qingxu replied with a smile.

"Well, we won't have to leave again after we come back, but your parents and Sixth Grandpa will come back to rest for a while and may have to go to work elsewhere." Liu Qingshui agreed.

"Really?" Liu Qingsong was a little surprised and surprised, but he didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he rolled up his sleeves and helped carry the luggage.

When the move was almost finished, Liu Huasheng and his son Liu Qingshu came over and said, "Qingsong, your father asked me to tell you something."

"What are you talking about, Uncle San?" Liu Qingsong asked with a smile.

After not seeing each other for a few months, Uncle San and Liu Qingshu have both gained a lot of weight.

Especially Liu Qingshu, he no longer looked the quiet and thin boy before, but turned into a big boy with a sense of vicissitudes of life, which was really beyond his expectations.

"Your father said that he and Grandpa Liu will not be back for a few days, and asked you not to worry about him." Liu Huasheng replied softly.

"I already know this." Liu Qingsong replied.

"If you know, I won't say much." Liu Huasheng reached out and patted Liu Qingsong on the shoulder: "Qingshu and I will go back first, and come to see you tomorrow."

"Okay!" Liu Qingsong nodded, and watched Liu Huasheng and Liu Qingshu disappear into the night. Just as he was about to call Xiao Nuomi and Yaomei to go home and sleep, Ye Qingmei came over with a skinny little boy who had white hair, white eyebrows, and even white eyelashes.

"Qingsong, Grandpa Jiang is calling you over." Ye Qingmei said softly as she approached.

"Okay!" Liu Qingsong glanced at the skinny little boy, and walked quickly towards the gate of Pangdun's house with Ye Qingmei.

At the gate, Old Jiang was talking in a low voice with several members of the Ye family. When he saw Liu Qingsong coming, he hurried over to him and said, "Qingsong, I need your help with something."

"What's the matter?" Liu Qingsong asked.

"Arrange long-term accommodation for this child in the Huaishu Production Team." Old Jiang sighed and led the skinny little boy next to Ye Qingmei over. "His name is Ye Qubing, and he is an albinist. He came here with Qingmei this time to treat his increasingly severe albinism."

"Is that so?" Liu Qingsong nodded: "Okay, I'll go find Uncle Wang to make the arrangements."

"By the way!" After letting Ye Qingmei take Ye Qubing away, Elder Jiang couldn't help but remind her, "Give Xiao Nuomi and the others a heads-up before you arrange their accommodation, and don't laugh at Ye Qubing."

"This child already has low self-esteem because of his albinism. I don't want him to be looked down upon even more after he comes to the Huaishu production team."

"Understood." Liu Qingsong said, "Don't worry, I will definitely take care of it."

"Then..." Just as Mr. Jiang was about to talk to Liu Qingsong about other aspects of Ye Qubing, Xiao Nuomi's surprised voice came from the grain drying field: "Huh? Why are your eyelashes all white?"

"Yeah, it looks very nice." The youngest sister agreed.

Liu Qingsong and Jiang Laolian looked over.

Seeing that Ye Qubing did not run away in inferiority, but whispered to Xiao Nuomi, Yaomei, Xiao Taoqi, Wang Ba, Pangdun and other children that he was born like this, he could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Of course, the children did not laugh at Ye Qubing.

Instead, he took Ye Qubing to the threshing ground and played the game of "Eagle Catches Chicken".

Soon, Ye Qubing's happy laughter was heard in the threshing ground.

This made Old Jiang very pleased. Ye Qingmei, who was walking over, also breathed a sigh of relief: "Grandpa Jiang, it seems that I have done something right again this time." "Yes," Old Jiang nodded: "Most rural children are simple and honest. The children in the government compound can't compare with them at all, especially..."

The words are not finished yet.

A barefoot boy in his teens suddenly reached out and grabbed Ye Qubing by the collar: "You white-haired guy, you don't have eyes! You stepped on my foot."

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Ye Qubing apologized repeatedly.

"Just say sorry." The barefoot boy stretched out his hand to hit Ye Qubing, but was pushed away by Xiao Nuomi the next second: "Wang Cong, what are you doing? Do you want to bully me?"

"I...I tell you, if you want to bully him, you have to get our permission first." The youngest sister also said seriously, and then stood in front of Ye Qubing.

"Also, don't call him Baimao from now on." The little rascal echoed.

"Are you good at fighting?" Wang Ba and Pangdun looked at each other, and stood in front of the barefoot boy, one on the left and one on the right.

Although they were almost a head shorter than the barefoot boy, they completely crushed him in terms of momentum.

Ye Qubing was deeply moved by this scene, and he realized that Xiao Nuomi, Xiao Taoqi, Liu Hongxia, Wang Ba, and Pangdun were very different from the little friends he knew.

Seeing the barefoot boy gnashing his teeth and rolling up his sleeves to hit Wang Ba and Fatty, he came to his senses and pulled them apart: "I stepped on his foot just now, I'll let him step on it for once."

In fact, I didn't step on it at all.

Just touched the barefoot boy.

Little Nuomi knew this and was about to tell Ye Qubing not to be so stupid, but the barefoot boy stepped hard on Ye Qubing's foot.

I saw that Ye Qubing didn't feel any pain.

The barefoot boy raised his foot and stomped down hard again.

But this time Ye Qubing pulled his foot away: "What do you mean? I only stepped on you once, why did you step on me twice?"

"Just because I can't stand you is okay, right?" The barefoot boy grabbed Ye Qubing and tried to throw him over his shoulder.

What he didn't expect was that even after using all his strength, Ye Qubing didn't move at all.

When he looked down, he found that Ye Qubing was doing horse stance, and he did it very well.

This made the barefoot boy very angry, and he raised his hand and hit Ye Qubing.

Liu Qingsong was about to step forward to stop the barefoot boy, but Ye Qubing pushed the barefoot boy to the ground with a Tai Chi push.

After getting up, the barefoot boy angrily punched Ye Qubing.

However, while his fist was still in the air, Ye Qubing kicked him away. He fell to the ground and was in so much pain that he couldn't even get up.

"Wow...you are so awesome!" Little Nuomi cheered as he watched.

"Yeah, yeah, that's awesome!" the youngest sister agreed.

The way Wang Ba, Pangdun and other children looked at Ye Qubing also changed, and they became awed.

"Hehe, it's just a small thing." Ye Qubing scratched his head embarrassedly after being praised.

After getting up, the barefoot boy didn't dare to bother Ye Qubing anymore, but ran away in shame.

Liu Qingsong breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this scene: "Grandpa Jiang, has this Ye Qubing ever practiced Tai Chi?"

"Well, his parents were afraid that he wouldn't grow up, so they sent him to become a disciple of Tai Chi master Chen Liqing. Counting the years, Ye Qubing has been practicing Tai Chi for five years this year." Old Jiang replied softly.

"How old is Ye Qubing this year?" Liu Qingsong asked.

"Eight years old." replied Mr. Jiang.

"You've been practicing Tai Chi for five years at the age of eight?" Liu Qingsong was a little surprised.

"Yes," Jiang Lao confirmed, "but unfortunately it can only strengthen the body, and cannot effectively treat albinism."

"This disease seems to be hereditary." Liu Qingsong couldn't help but say.

"It's hereditary, but I think as long as the right medicine is used, there is still hope of a cure." Old Jiang glanced at the night and saw that it was getting late. He said, "Don't tell me that Ye Qubing is sick. Go and arrange accommodation for him!"

"Okay!" Liu Qingsong nodded, turned around and went to find Wang Yaoqing.

A few minutes later, accommodation was arranged for Ye Qubing, and he lived in the same room with Wang Ba and Pangdun.

In order to prevent Ye Qubing from disagreeing, Liu Qingsong went to ask specifically.

Seeing that Ye Qubing had no objection, he took Xiao Nuomi and his youngest sister home to wash their faces and go to bed.

……

Around one o'clock in the morning.

After Liu Qingsong, the eldest sister, the second sister, Li Fenfen, Xiao Nuomi, and the youngest sister fell asleep, they quietly entered the garbage dump of all worlds.

Seeing Liu Qingsong coming, the liquid robot picked up a space backpack and handed it to Liu Qingsong: "This is a space backpack specially customized for Li Fenfen. Can you check it and see if there is anything that needs to be changed?"

"Okay!" Liu Qingsong took it and started to check it.

After a moment, he nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, basically no need to change it, but Fenfen is different from Xiao Nuomi and Yaomei. I think it's better not to give this space backpack to her for the time being."

Gave it.

It was discovered by some caring members of the Li family.

That would harm not only Li Fenfen, but also yourself.

"You have the final say on this." The liquid robot replied.

"Then you should put away the space backpack first." Liu Qingsong said and looked around: "Huh? Where are Alcy and the guardian vine? Why aren't they in the energy shield?"

"They are digging up a treasure in a garbage dump eighty kilometers to the southeast." The liquid robot pointed.

"What? Digging for treasure?" Liu Qingsong immediately became interested: "Then you stay at home, I'll take Bison over to have a look."

"Okay!" The liquid robot nodded.

Liu Qingsong walked straight towards the oasis outside the energy shield.

……

More than forty minutes later.

Liu Qingsong rode a bison to find Alcy and the guardian vine.

They were currently cleaning up a huge garbage dump.

There is a pointed protrusion in the garbage dump. This protrusion looks a bit like the roof of a house, and also a bit like the eaves of a palace. In short, it is half-hidden and not very clear.

After Liu Qingsong got off the bison's back, he reached out and knocked on the protrusion: "Alsi, do you know what this is?"

"I don't know." Alcy replied softly, "I only know that it is very large and made of a very special material, neither gold nor iron. With the power of the guardian vine, there is no way you can pull it out of the garbage dump."

"Really?" After thinking about it, Liu Qingsong took out a chain from his space backpack, and then let the chain drill into the garbage dump to check the protrusions buried in the garbage dump.

What surprised Liu Qingsong was that the chain had been drilling into the garbage dump for more than ten minutes, but had not reached the end.

What does this prove? It proves that the protrusion buried in the garbage dump is really huge, otherwise the chain would not have been able to drill for so long without stopping.

In order to verify his guess, Liu Qingsong even cleaned up the garbage covering the protrusion.

Half an hour later, he was surprised to find that the bulge was actually a roof.

Yes, the roof.

However, this roof is magnificent and is definitely not an ordinary roof.

Even though it was hidden deep in a garbage dump, Liu Qingsong knew that it was no ordinary thing.

Seeing the chain coming out from the garbage dump and crawling towards the southeast with him, he hurriedly called Alcy and the protector Teng to follow behind.

In front of a deep pit, Suo Lian took the lead and drilled in, then cleaned up all the garbage around.

Liu Qingsong and Alcy looked at each other cautiously, took out their weapons and walked carefully into the deep pit.

The passage in front of the deep pit was long and dark. Liu Qingsong was afraid that there might be monsters hidden inside, so he even took out a military flashlight to illuminate it.

Seeing that there was no danger, he walked in carefully with Alcy and the guardian vine.

As I was walking, I suddenly heard a slight sound of gears turning under my feet, and then the gems on both sides of the passage emitted a soft light, illuminating the entire passage and the surrounding environment.

Liu Qingsong raised his head and looked at the farthest point of the light, and the next second his eyes widened.
