Chapter 11 Gentle Age

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 The second day of the Lunar New Year.

According to the traditional customs of Ningyang City, Li Mu needs to take his son to his grandfather’s house to pay New Year greetings.

The little guy also prefers to go to his maternal grandfather’s house, because Grandpa Li Mu’s house keeps more than a dozen lambs and a group of big white geese all year round.

Li Mu once joked to his son.

"If you don't study well, dad will go to your maternal grandfather's house to catch some lambs and goslings and let you raise them."

Unexpectedly, the little guy didn't even think about it and said, "Then I won't study now."

Li Mu was rendered speechless on the spot.

He meant to reprimand, but he was the one who said it. His son simply expressed that he preferred the life of the nomadic people with green mountains and green waters to studying.

After all, the world is big and the classroom is small.

Li Mu's grandpa's house was very close to his home, only about seven or eight miles away. After driving for more than 20 minutes, Li Mu arrived at the door of his grandpa's house.

Before he comes.

A Volkswagen sedan has been parked on the cement road.

Li Mu scanned the license plate and knew that his cousin had arrived.

From his sister Li Hong's mouth, Li Mu learned that after his cousin's car was smashed by his cousin's sister-in-law, it was transferred by his cousin Wei Jun to the name of his uncle's eldest daughter.

This is not a transfer of property.

But it was transferred by my cousin Wei Jun in the name of selling the car.

After the car was smashed, the second-hand car market valued it at 20,000 yuan. His cousin Weijun paid his cousin 10,000 yuan out of his own pocket, which meant that the car was sold. In fact, he spent another 50,000 yuan to repair it and drive it when he came back.

But usually they would go to Chencang secretly and carry his cousin-in-law on his back.

"Ranran is here"

The sun is nice today.

The temperature is still a bit low, but there is no cold wind.

Under the eaves, there were several relatives and friends who were basking in the sun and eating melon seeds.

As soon as Li Mu's cousin saw Li Ran, she ran over quickly, hugged him in her arms, kissed and squeezed him.

"Let your second aunt take you to see the lambs"

Uncle Li Mu gave birth to three daughters in total.

The eldest is already a senior in high school and will take the college entrance examination this year.

His grades are neither good nor bad. He is the kind of average student who has always been stable.

The high school I attended was not a key high school in the city.

However, she is also self-aware and has long characterized herself as an art student, full of desire to survive.

The second child is a sophomore in high school this year.

The achievements are from the same line as my sister, and I have completely inherited Uncle Li Mu’s consistent style of being intangible and tangible.

The third child is the first in high school.

This may be the only exception among the three sisters.

Unable to stabilize the stable and calm genetics of the old Xu family, his grades always fluctuated between the first and second places from the bottom. Occasionally, he was ranked third from the bottom. Uncle Li Mu seemed to have seen the dawn, and he couldn't help but be excited.

People called everywhere to announce the good news, which also led to the results of Li Mu's third sister always attracting attention.

No phone calls.

Ranked first and second from last.

Once the call came, everyone knew that someone in the third class was sick and asked for leave on the day of the exam.

The person who asked for leave happened to be the one with the worst grades.

However, although Li Mu's three younger sisters did not have good grades, the names Grandpa Li Mu chose for his granddaughters were all very good.

The eldest sister’s name is Xu Yimu.

The source is "A new bather must flick his crown, and a new bather must shake his clothes."

The second sister’s name is Chang Nian.

From the "Eight Great Enlightenment Sutras" "If a Bodhisattva is not here, he will always be content with his thoughts, live in poverty and abide by the Way, but only regret this karma"

When we arrived at Sanmei’s place, the scene suddenly changed.

She actually called her Xu Shan directly. The original "Shan" was the number three. In the end, the third sister felt embarrassed and called Li Mu's mother and five sisters in tears. Together they put pressure on Uncle Li Mu and grandpa, so that Shan could become what she is now.

, otherwise the poor third sister Li Mu would probably live her whole life carrying the name Xu San.

It’s precisely because of Xu San’s appearance.

Third sister Li Mu has been blaming her fault for poor study on her name.

"Kiss me and I will take you there"

Second sister Li Mu pointed at her face and said seductively, "Second aunt tells you that the ewe just gave birth to three lambs two days ago."

"There's really nothing I can do about you"

The little guy said something in a grown-up tone.

Then he stood on tiptoes, pouted his little mouth and reluctantly kissed his second aunt's round face.

"You still dislike me"

Xu Changnian turned over Li Ran's body, slapped his butt hard, and said, "Based on your second aunt's appearance, those who want to kiss Fangze will probably be able to line up to the Huangpu River from here."

"Are you sure that all the men lining up in the Huangpu River want to kiss you instead of jumping into the river?"

Wei Jun held a cigarette between his fingers and joked.

Li Mu’s cousin doesn’t drink, but he smokes heavily.

Once you pass the age of sixty, if you feel unwell, you will know that you have late-stage lung cancer without going to the hospital for a check-up.

"Get out"

Xu Changnian laughed and cursed, then hugged Li Ran and looked at the lambs in the sheepfold.

"Li Mu"

Xu Lan, who was sitting on the bench picking celery leaves, raised her head and said, "Zhong Ning called me last night and asked me. She has sent you a lot of messages in the past two days, but you didn't reply to any of them?"

"Not suitable"

Li Mu said tactfully.

"What's not appropriate"

Li Mu's aunt, Xu Lanjia, threw the picked celery into the basin and said, "Zhong Ning's ex-husband will pay the monthly support for the two boys, and the old Zhong family has demolished three houses. You and I have been identified."

Once Zhong Ning gets married, I will give you two houses immediately. The money earned by running a store at home will also be yours in the future. The second daughter has nothing but one house. It is only because I am my aunt that I will push this good thing to you. I will exchange it for something else.

People must be hidden and tucked in"

"I have already bought a house, so I don't need so much house"

Li Mu smiled and replied, "If you really want to introduce her, introduce her sister to me."

"you"

Xu Lan was choked by Li Mu and couldn't speak for a long time. Finally, she said angrily, "I already have a boyfriend."

"What does her boyfriend have?"

Li Mu joked, "I have a house and a car, and I don't need her to give birth to a son, so it saves a lot of trouble."

"You'd better be a bachelor for the rest of your life!"

Xu Lan said the next sentence and walked to the kitchen to help with the basin.

"Why didn't you see your aunt?"

Li Mu had been here for more than half an hour, but he didn't see his aunt who usually came out early to prepare lunch, so he curiously asked his cousin Wei Jun.

"What do you think?"

Wei Jun kicked his eldest sister Xu Yimu in the butt and signaled her to tell Li Mu.

"What's all the fuss about"

Xu Yimu rolled her eyes and said, "My mother is doing confinement in the room"

"Xiaoyuezi?"

Li Mu was stunned for a moment and then realized what he was doing.

The so-called confinement period, isn’t it just resting after a miscarriage!

How old is his uncle?

It seems that I am already in my forties, but at this age I still have such a strong physical fitness, and I am completely walking the tough guy route.

Think again.

Grandpa Li Mu and grandma gave birth to six children in their lifetime.

The genetic genes of the old Xu family are indeed extremely powerful, and in fact it is not just the old Xu family.

At night in that era, the sky seemed to be filled with ripples that could not be resolved.

Countless families adopted a lifestyle that was unique to that era and lived gently throughout the 1960s and 1970s, creating the largest baby boom since the founding of the People's Republic of China and providing a favorable channel for the arrival of Li Mu's generation.
