Chapter 222
"Okay." Li Hongqin shook his head and sighed, "I saw Shan Qiang's son today, he didn't look very good, and I don't remember you, so if he has two money, he will go to the sky. Dong Bao is fine too, it's not in vain for you to think about him, but his father's virtue... can't compare to Da Shi at first glance."

Li smiled and said: "I can't understand? Isn't this also a response to Shan Qiang's words? If I agree, my daughter may hate me in her heart! Girls are not allowed to stay!"

Li Hongqin nodded with a smile, took a look at the clothes in Li Shi's hand, and asked, "Why don't you choose a bright color? After all, it's marriage and a wedding!"

The new clothes Mrs. Li sewed for Mr. Yan were blue, dark blue satin material embroidered with the dark pattern of the word "Fu", the fabric was good, but it was not festive enough, it didn't look like what you would wear when you got married.

"I've discussed it with him, and I feel... hey, it's not the first time we're married, it's not good to be too public, let's not invite so many people, just invite acquaintances to have a drink, tell everyone, and don't do so much Fancy things, we are not showing off." Li Shi smiled a little embarrassed, she did not want to make a fuss like others guessed, she wished that people all over the world knew that she was married to Mrs. Yan, and even wanted to It wasn't Lord Yan's insistence. She felt that there was no need to hold a banquet. Regarding the matter of remarriage, she was shy and pious. Even the clothes she wore on her own wedding day were not bright red, but a lighter pink.

Li Hongqin sewed the little clothes in his hand, and said: "You can decide this matter, and you can marry yourself again. We are not such vain people. As long as you live well and don't feel wronged, your brother and I can rest assured. The youngest, you had the worst life in the past, I was worried in my heart, you are all married sisters, so I don't have much to say. Now, you are finally out of your head. "

"Hey." Li Shi smiled, and quietly turned his back to wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes.

Time passed quickly, the workshop was almost built, and the six big tile-roofed houses had reached the day when the beams were put on.Building a house and raising the beams is a big event, which marks that the house is about to be completed, and it is necessary to celebrate it, not only by setting off firecrackers to drive away the negative energy in the house, but also by sprinkling sugar.

Mrs. Li and Dongbao bought more than a dozen catties of candy and brought them back to Tagouji, just to see Liang back.

After the six bucket-thick beams were carried up to the house by dozens of strong men, cheers erupted from the crowd, and at this time, festive firecrackers also sounded.

Several young boys from Takako were wearing clean and upright clothes, standing on a corner of the house, holding a long string of firecrackers and setting them off. Their beaming young faces were indescribably beautiful, and they offended the older girls who were watching. They were blushing, and there were many people from other villages who came to see the excitement. When they heard that Takako sold tofu and could earn dozens of dollars a day, they asked everywhere if Takako was engaged.

The candies brought back by Dongbao were taken to the roof by Guizi and the others, and they sprinkled them down one by one, especially in crowded places. The children and adults who snatched candy huddled together, laughing uninterruptedly Pass.

Both Quanzi and Lin Shi, who were studying in the town, came back. Lin Shi stood in the distance protecting Dongbao, watching a group of people scrambling for candies. Fearing that Dongbao might be squeezed, the two of them went to the hospital. Don't join in the fun anymore, and Quanzi and Shuanzi don't change their true colors as country kids even after they read the book. They are very happy to squeeze and grab in the crowd. A festive atmosphere.

"Here!" Quan Zi generously gave Dong Bao a few of the stolen candies.

While stuffing candy into his mouth, Shuan Zi pointed to the two children in the crowd who were still looking for the spilled candy in the corner, and said, "The big boy and Ermao are here too, do you want me to drive them away?"

Dong Bao shook his head, "No need, leave them alone." Although she didn't like Da Mao and Er Mao, they were children after all, and she wouldn't be careful about it.Dong Bao first peeled off a candy wrapper with Double Happiness printed on it, stuffed the light yellow candy wrapped inside into Lin Shi's mouth, and said with a smile, "Try it, what kind of candy is this?"

The sweet and greasy taste reached the tip of Lin Shi's tongue, and Lin Shi's heart was also filled with the sweet and greasy taste, his eyes smiled softly, "It's sorghum sugar!"

Dong Bao himself also peeled off a candy paper with a little fat boy printed on it. The candy inside is red, and there is a strong aroma of red beans as soon as he eats it. "Mine are red beans."

"Lady Li is still generous!" The adults and children who came to watch the excitement and grab the candy all praised so much. Others built a house and sprinkled candy on the beams. At most, they sprinkled a few handfuls of candy. If you buy more than ten catties of candy in one go, everyone can grab the candy to eat.

When people who came to watch the excitement saw Dong Bao and Li Shi, they would gather around them, earnestly cut off the relationship, and asked if they could come to work after the workshop was built. Dong Bao and Li Shi all answered in unison, "As long as you work hard It's clean and ready to work!"

The villagers are satisfied, and they look forward to building the workshop as soon as possible. They also want to make money quickly. Look at the few families in the village who help Mrs. Li, their life is flourishing, how enviable and jealous they are!

Dong Bao and Li Shi were still in the workshop watching the builders put up the beams. Although the candy had been sprinkled, the children who snatched the candy hadn't dispersed yet, looking for candies that might have fallen in the cracks of the bricks or in the corners.

Lin Shi took the whole son home first. Today, Dongbao and her daughter are going to have dinner at Lin's house. Father is too busy building a workshop to keep his feet on the ground. Mother has to prepare meals for the whole family, so he has to go back to help mother first. .

When he was leaving the gate of the workshop, Lin Shi heard two people not far away pointing at him and whispering: "Hey, aren't those two boys from Lin Fu's family? I heard that they are both sent to the town to study! The couple from How much did Mrs. Li get? This is really a hair!"

"He's lucky and has good vision! You can't envy him even if you're envious!" Another person laughed, "My mother originally wanted to tell Lin Shi about my second uncle's sister, but now she has stopped thinking about it. The girl is thicker than our waist by uprooting hairs, and the boy is too late to beg Dongbao, so he is so stupid that he wants someone else!"

"Who knew Mrs. Li could get rich back then? Look, as Mrs. Li's son-in-law, you don't have to do anything, and you will have endless money!" The person at the beginning sighed, only regretting that he was not as good as Lin Shi. good luck.

Quanzi hurriedly shook Lin Shi's hand, Lin Shi looked at him and shook his head slightly, pretending that he didn't hear anything, and took Quanzi home.

After walking for a while, Quanzi asked angrily: "Brother, why don't you talk about those two people! It's too much, it's like we take other people's money for nothing, how tired our father and mother are!" Ah..." Quanzi was so angry that he couldn't continue, and finally said in a muffled voice: "You should kick each of them, and see if they still talk nonsense!"

"What do you say you still care about the mouth?" Lin Shi smiled and pinched Quanzi's ear, "Tell me, is the relationship between us and Dongbao what they said?"

Quanzi immediately shouted: "Of course not!"

"Then it's over." Lin Shi bent his lips and smiled maliciously, "Do you remember who those two gossips are?"

Quanzi nodded, "Remember, one is Zhu Laowu's third son, and the other is Liu Deaf's son-in-law!"

"When our father comes back later, let's take a moment to tell our father. After the workshop opens, other people can come to work, but they can't!" Lin Shi whispered.

"Hey!" Quanzi's eyes lit up, and he nodded excitedly. The eldest brother is still smart, which is much better than kicking them to relieve anger. Let's see if they dare to talk nonsense!

"Are you back?" Aunt Qiuxia looked at her two sons, who were so happy that they couldn't close their mouths from ear to ear. She wiped her wet hands on her apron, and pushed her two sons into the house. "Go inside and rest, mother." People are busy."

Quanzi quickly peeled off a piece of candy, stuffed it into Aunt Qiuxia's mouth, and said with a smile, "Mother, is the candy I snatched sweet?"

"Sweet!" Aunt Qiuxia laughed heartily, the candy given by her son was sweet to her heart no matter what.

Lin Shi pushed Quanzi, "Go inside and rest, I'll help my mother with some work."

Aunt Qiuxia didn't refuse either, she was really too busy alone.After entering the kitchen, Lin Shi sat down in front of the stove, broke the dried corncobs into two pieces, and filled them into the stove. The flames sprang up all of a sudden, and he licked the bottom of the iron pot vigorously.

A pig's head was stewed in the big pot, and fish was stewed in the small pot. The aroma of the fish and pork wafted out and wafted all over the yard.

Sitting alone in the house was boring for Quanzi, so he went into the stove and watched Aunt Qiuxia pick up the stewed pig's head, quickly sliced ​​it into a plate, sprinkled shallots and coriander, dripped a few drops of sesame oil, Just looking at it makes people move their index fingers.

"Didn't Sister Dongbao come here today? Don't let Sister Dongbao cook?" Quanzi couldn't help saying, greedy for the dishes made by Dongbao.

Lin Shi raised his head from the stove, snapped his fingers on Quanzi's forehead with a hand covered in stove ashes, and scolded with a smile, "I just know how to eat!"

"Why? Don't you care about the food cooked by mother?" Aunt Qiuxia pretended to be dissatisfied.

Quanzi touched the place where Lin Shi hit him, and said with a smile, "Rare! I just want to eat the braised fish cooked by Dongbao, which is better than stewed fish! Let's tell Sister Dongbao, she will definitely come back Do!"

Lin Shi smiled and said, "Dongbao usually helps cook in the shop every day, but today I finally have a day off, why can I ask her to cook?"

"But sister Dongbao is so good at cooking..." Quanzi defended in a low voice.

"Knowing how to cook doesn't necessarily mean you like cooking!" Lin Shi smiled, the stove was so smoky, what little girl would like to cook in the stove every day?If it wasn't for making money, wouldn't a clean and beautiful girl like Dong Bao be able to get into the kitchen without coming out?If others don't understand Dong Bao, can he still be inconsiderate and feel distressed?
