Chapter 219 Shan Qiang's Caution
There are dozens of households in Tagouji. Even if only one person comes to work, the workshop must accommodate nearly a hundred people. A general workshop with twenty people is considered a large workshop. Mrs. Li The workshop is actually so big...

"I heard that Mrs. Li plans to open a shop in Anzhou City and sell the products produced by the workshop!" The half-grown child added proudly, his eyes were full of expectations, and he also hoped that the workshop would be built quickly, so he said Can enter the workshop to work, save money to marry a wife.

After seeing it with his own eyes, Shan Qiang couldn't calm down the excitement and shock for a long time. If he was only trying to please Mrs. Li for the face of Mr. Yan and the Wang family, now he really realizes that Mrs. Li is no longer the desperate one. A country woman, the energy of this mother and daughter is much greater than him.

After Shan Qiang returned to the town, he took two packs of snacks and went directly to Baoji shop.

"Ouch! Sister-in-law, I just went back to our village to visit. Your workshop is really amazing! Tsk tsk, I have lived for so many years, and this is the first time I have seen such a ostentatious workshop. Sister-in-law, you are going to make a fortune Ah!" Shan Qiang tsk-tsk praised, and kept cocking his thumbs.

Li Shi smiled in response to the situation, but didn't say a word, even though she was about to become Mrs. Yan, she had heard too much flattery, and was not used to flattery like Shan Qiang's.

Shan Qiang was not stupid, seeing that Li Shi was not interested in talking to him, he changed the subject and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, do you still remember my son Shan Liang? That kid survived thanks to your kindness, Tomorrow, I'll bring him to show you!"

Hearing Shan Liang, who was breastfed by him, Li Shi's expression relaxed a little. Thinking of the little baby boy who was nursing in his arms 11 years ago, Li Shi's smile became obviously gentle. At that time, he really loved Shan Liang. Liang was raised by his own son, and when he had milk, he followed Shan Liang to eat. When Shan Liang was full, it was Dong Bao's turn to eat.

Thinking about it now, Mrs. Li still felt a little guilty towards Dong Bao, seeing her daughter crying from hunger in her baby, she had to be cruel to feed Shan Liang first.At that time, I didn't know what was going on. Maybe it was because I lived with Xiucai for a long time and listened to him. He said that Shan Liang was entrusted to them by Shan Qiang, so he had to take good care of him, even if Dongbao couldn't. If you want to live, you have to support Shan Liang.She really thought so, and she felt that Xiao Shanliang should not be wronged, and she should not be entrusted by a scholar friend. This is loyalty, and this is the right thing to do.

In fact, at that time, every family was in a difficult situation. Song Yang had just passed the examination of a scholar, and he had not yet found a place to sit. The family could barely eat and drink. Her milk was not much, and most of it was divided by Shan Liang, and her daughter was half hungry. , To be able to survive is considered a blessing.In fact, Xiucai was also disappointed when she saw that Dongbao was a girl. She thought that she would raise as long as she could.

"Shan Liang must be eleven, and he has grown into a big child." Li Shi smiled, sighed softly, regretting that it was time to die, if the time can be repeated, she must feed her daughter first, and take good care of her. There is nothing more important than your own children to protect your daughter.

Shan Qiang also said with a smile: "Yes, my boy started to grow up this year, and he will surpass me next year! Let him kowtow to Mrs. Li tomorrow. He owes your kindness to his survival. You deserve it!" His head!"

Mrs. Li quickly waved her hand, "I can't help it! Don't say it's kind or not, it's just a matter of convenience. We are all from the same village. Can you help me with this?"

"Look at what my sister-in-law said!" Shan Qiang laughed, "Could our two families have a relationship between ordinary folks! We are a family, and we have agreed before... Sister-in-law, I remember it all! Don't dare to forget Don't forget! Both children grew up on your milk, and they have a fate since they were young. When the two children are one year older, we will do things for the two children!"

"Working? What are you doing?" Dong Bao just heard Shan Qiang's last words, stepped into the shop with a grim expression, and asked while staring at Shan Qiang.

Shan Qiang laughed, looked at Li Shi and said, "Look at this girl Dongbao, she has such a cute appearance, just like your sister-in-law!" He smiled "kindly" at Dongbao "Dong Bao, you little girl won't like to hear what Uncle Shan told your mother!"

Dong Bao snorted, glanced at Shan Qiang, ignored him, and only said to Mrs. Li: "Mother, go into the house, Auntie is looking for you."

"Hey!" Mrs. Li didn't want to deal with Shan Qiang for a long time, so she quickly responded, and said with a smile to Shan Qiang: "Master Shan, I have something to do here, so I won't entertain you."

Shan Qiang hurriedly cupped his hands, "Sister-in-law, you are busy, your affairs are more important than mine!" Before leaving, he put the pastry in his hand on the table in the shop, walked quickly a few steps, and left The shop smiled and said, "I bought snacks for Dong Bao, sister-in-law, don't be too polite!"

After Shan Qiang left, Mrs. Li pulled Dong Bao into the house, and asked, "Why is your aunt calling me?"

"My aunt didn't call you." Dong Bao pouted, "Why are you talking to someone like him? Let him go if you come again. We are not the same way, so we don't need to be afraid of him now."

Mrs. Li shook her head with a smile, and patted the back of Dong Bao's hand, "You child, you have such a lonely temper. If we don't like him, we won't fall out! You have to keep a thread, and we will go to him at that time He didn't like us, but he didn't ask anyone to kick us out? Forget it, don't make such an ugly scene."

"What's the difference between kicking us out at that time? He pretended to be a dog all day long, so he was a rich man!" Dong Bao muttered dissatisfiedly, "What did he tell you? ?”

Mrs. Li quickly said: "It's nothing, nothing! Mother just told him a few polite words, don't you worry about your child? Mother, don't you know what kind of person he is?" Mrs. Li did not dare to talk to her daughter Qiang made up her mind, and now regretting it, he still wants to make her a pair with Shan Liang. According to his daughter's tough temper, he must scold Shan Qiang bloody.

"Why did he bring things here again?" Mrs. Li shook her head helplessly. Before leaving, Shan Qiang threw the things away and ran away. She is a woman, so it is not easy to chase her on the street and return them to him.

Dong Bao was not polite, and opened the hemp rope tied with a paper bag. Inside the paper bag were snacks, including sesame candy, cloud slice cake and dragon beard cake. Look at the red paper on the top of the paper bag, which read "Zhenbaozhai" three There are a few chubby children holding lanterns, and the oil of the pastry has soaked into the paper, forming oily spots one by one.

"It's all sweet, sister Xiuyu and I don't like to eat it." Dong Bao frowned, even if she loves to eat and doesn't want to eat the food sent by Shan Qiang, Lin Shi doesn't like to eat sweets either, "Wait until noon. Zizi and Shuanzi are here, let them share the meal."

Mrs. Li said with a smile, "You can do what you see." Now that life is getting better, I eat a lot of good things, and Mrs. Li doesn't care for the things from Zhenbaozhai. She is not as surprised as she was when she first tasted them. There are such delicious pastries.

Mrs. Li was not surprised by Shan Qiang's flattery. She was about to marry Mr. Yan, and many wives of merchants in the town came to say hello and give gifts. At first, she was a little uneasy and refused to accept. When Master Yan found out about the gift from others, he told her not to be nervous, if the gift was not heavy, it was fine to accept it, such as precious gold and silver jewellery, antique calligraphy and paintings, Li Shi gradually let go.

People I didn't know all came to the door to make connections. It would be strange if Shan Qiang didn't come.

It's just that Li Shi didn't expect that Shan Qiang came again the next day, dragging a little boy.The boy looked very similar to Shan Qiang, his face was full of flesh, his eyes were squeezed into two slits, he was wearing a thin green silk robe, and a heavy golden longevity lock was hung around his neck.

"Hey, sister-in-law!" Shan Qiang pulled the little boy to greet Li Shi loudly, entered the Baoji shop, pulled the little boy to Li Shi, and said with a smile: "This child is Shan Liang." Then he bowed his head to Shan Liang Said: "Quick, give you Aunt Li a kowtow! You survived by drinking Aunt Li's milk when you were a child, and it is not an exaggeration to call me a godmother!"

Shan Liang raised his eyelids and glanced at Mrs. Li, who had just been helping in the back kitchen, now had a break from work. He was wearing an ordinary thin cotton jacket, and a blue coarse cloth apron was tied around his waist. Stained with flour and oil, her hair pulled back in a bun, she would have looked like an ordinary working woman were it not for the gold earrings in her ears.

Seeing that Shan Liang didn't make a sound or kneel down, Shan Qiang couldn't help but glared at Shan Liang, and scolded: "What's the matter? You didn't obey me when you came out? Didn't you say it well when you left it at home, didn't you? I really want to see you, Mrs. Li!" Then he smiled apologetically to Mrs. Li and said, "This kid is shy, when he heard that he came to see you when he was at home, he was so happy, but when he came to see you, he became shy again!"

"Why are you yelling at the child? The child knows how to be shy when he is sensible." Li smiled, looking at the chubby Shan Qiang, remembering that when he was a child, he was only a little older. When he was first held in her arms, he was hungry for two days. I didn't even have the energy to cry anymore, and I was very energetic when I started to eat milk. After feeding him for a year, I raised him, a yellow and thin monkey, until he was white and fat.Fast forward ten years, and Shan Liang, who was raised as his own son, has also grown into this appearance. When he walked to the street and saw him face to face, he couldn't recognize that this was the child who grew up on her milk.

Li Shi wanted to reach out and touch Shan Liang's head, but put it down again.

Shan Qiang glanced around in embarrassment, saw Dong Bao leaning against the door, and quickly smiled and waved to Dong Bao, "Girl Dong Bao, come and get acquainted, this is the uncle's son Shan Liang, you both loved you when you were young." Mother’s grandma, she slept on the same bed and learned how to walk together, so she’s doing great!”

Dong Bao listened to Shan Qiang laughing, hehehehaha, frowning, and glanced at Dan Liang, who had a foolish face, always felt that he had seen this fat face before, after thinking for a while, he suddenly remembered that during the Lantern Festival this year, Isn't the little fat man driving on the street spouting dung the same Shan Liang in front of him!
