Chapter 136 You Should Save Money to Marry a Wife

"Alas! Awen, you are better than your uncle and the others." The old lady looked at the chicken cake that Li Wen handed to her, tears streaming down her face.

Li Wen knew that the situation in the grandfather's family had not been good in the past few years, and life had been difficult. Several aunts were not very filial, and the three uncles did not dare to say anything.

Every family has a scripture that is difficult to recite! Li Wen didn’t dare to say anything about his uncle, because he was not qualified.

The old lady happily ate the chicken cake. Li Wen took out a hot water bottle from the kang table and made a bowl of malted milk for the old lady.

"Grandma, after eating the chicken cake, you also drank this bowl of malted milk. You have to take care of yourself. We are all grown up, so you can enjoy the blessings in the future." Li Wen smiled and chatted with the old man.

It was only after nine o'clock, and it was still early. Li Wen chatted with the old lady for a while, but declined the old lady's request to stay, and pushed the car out of the gate of his grandmother's house.

When passing by the market, Li Wen found someone selling puppies and hurriedly stopped the car.

I saw an old man in his sixties sitting on the ground with a basket in front of him. There were three black puppies playing and climbing in the basket.

"Uncle, how did you sell this puppy?" Li Wen walked up and squatted in front of the basket and touched a few puppies. The dogs rushed forward and wanted to bite Li Wen, which was quite fierce.

"Young man, do you really want it? I only sell dogs to people who like dogs, and I don't sell them to people who abuse dogs." The uncle raised his cigarette pole without raising his head.

The face Li Wen saw was rather sad, he must have encountered something difficult.

"Uncle, you are dressed like an Orion, right? Are these puppies the descendants of wolfdogs?" Li Wen shot the dog who was making the most noise out of his head and said with a smile.

"Oh! Young man, do you know anything?" The uncle sat up straight now, raised his head and looked at Li Wenxiao and asked.

"Although these puppies are relatively small, they have sharp mouths and are quite fierce. Looking at your leggings and energy, your dog must be a descendant of a hound."

"Young man, you are knowledgeable. These little dogs are indeed the descendants of wolf dogs, and their father is the descendant of the gray wolf in Daqing Mountain." The old man took a puff of cigarette and said proudly.

"My Dahei dared to fight wolves alone in the mountains, which is really awesome. If my grandson hadn't been bitten by a wild boar while going up the mountain and was in desperate need of money, I would have been reluctant to sell these little guys." The old man touched them lovingly.

I petted a few puppies.

"It's not good to be bitten by a wild boar. How are you doing now? How much does it cost for medicine?" Li Wen looked at the sad old man and asked.

"Fortunately, Dahei and his wife rescued that brat. The wild boar's tusks stabbed a hole in his thigh, and his chest was also fractured."

"The hospitalization cost nearly one hundred yuan, and I owed a lot of money to the family. I still had more than twenty yuan to pay for medical expenses. I had no other options, so I sold these little guys to raise money." The old man said regretfully.

Old man, how much are you going to sell this dog for? Li Wen whistled and teased a few little guys who were having fun.

"These three dogs, two male puppies cost 7 yuan each; one female puppy costs 13 yuan. This is the price I really want to buy. I won't sell it to anyone who doesn't love dogs." The old man said.

.

"Well! As for wolf dogs, the price is indeed not high, and I got the advantage. Uncle, I really like these dogs."

"Let's do this. I'll give you 30 yuan, round it up, and the extra three yuan will be used as nutrition for the dog's mother." Li Wen took out three big black tens and handed them over and said.

The old man was stunned for a moment, then smiled and took the Big Black Ten from Li Wen's hand.

"Young man, you are a real person. These dogs belong to you. I hope you can treat these dogs well."

"If you really don't want to keep them anymore, you can take them back. My home is in Shiniu Mountain, from Shiniu Village." The old man stood up and looked at the puppies reluctantly.

"Don't worry, uncle, there will be no problem in raising a few puppies at home."

Li Wen tied the basket to the box on the back seat and left the town on his bicycle. Li Wen had always been a dog lover in his previous life, and he had never seen a dog since he came to this era!

On the way home, Li Wen put two male dogs into the space. He planned to keep these two dogs as his own pets, so that he would have companions no matter where he went.

As for the little bitch, just leave it to your family! If your family doesn’t let you keep it, you can take it to the county.

The basket containing the puppies was thrown into the space by Li Wen, and the remaining puppy, Li Wen, was placed directly in the basket in front of the car.

Today's 28-inch large bars don't have a front basket. Li Wen felt it was very inconvenient, so he made an iron basket for the front of the bicycle, which was convenient for putting things on.

The town is only about ten miles away from Sanxing Village, and Li Wen returned to the village in less than thirty minutes.

"Xiao Wen is back! I haven't seen him for several months. What did you bring home this time?" There were five or six gossiping old men and women sitting under the big tree at the entrance of the village. They all laughed when they saw Li Wen.

greet.

"Master Qi, Grandma Ninth, and all the grandparents, how are you doing these days?" Li Wen got off the bicycle with a smile.

Everyone in the village has the same clan and surname, and many of them are relatives. If Li Wen rode directly there, he would be scolded by the villagers, and his father would also blame himself.

"Everyone smoke!" Li Wen took out a pack of Dayan Pagoda cigarettes from his pocket and gave them to a few old men and an old lady who was smoking.

"Big Wild Goose Pagoda! These cigarettes are not cheap. Sun Tou will light them for grandpa." Master Qi is the father of the fourth uncle in the village, Li Delong, and is a member of the same clan as Li Wen. There is nothing wrong with calling him Sun Tou.

Li Wen smiled and took out matches to light cigarettes for several elderly people.

"It's comfortable. This good cigarette is easy to smoke. It's soft! But it's a bit weak." The old man smacked his lips and said.

"Xiao Wenzi, give your seventh master and the others a cigarette, why don't you give one to us grandmas?" the old lady on the side joked with Li Wen.

But if you really take these old ladies as a joke, you are wrong. They really want cigarettes. Even if they don't smoke themselves, they will take them back to smoke for their father or son.

"Haha, look at what you said, am I just about to give some grannies some candy to sweeten their mouths!"

Li Wen took out a few fruit candies from his pocket and handed two to each of the old ladies.

Without waiting for anyone to say anything, he directly said hello and pushed his bicycle away.

Li Wen is now a celebrity in the village. If he stays under the big tree for a while, the children will definitely surround him.

On the way next, when he met elders sunbathing at the door, Li Wen nodded and said hello without getting out of the car.

I haven’t been back for a few months, and the pumpkin vines at the door are crawling on the gatehouse and walls. They are everywhere and have begun to bear fruit. The door to the house was ajar, so Li Wen raised the threshold and pushed the bicycle directly in.

"Grandma, I'm back." Li Wen propped up his bicycle in the yard and shouted toward the back room.

"It's Awen who's back!" The old lady saw it was Li Wen from the window and hurriedly walked out of the room.

"Awen hasn't been back for a few months. He has grown taller and stronger." The old lady smiled and patted the third grandson on the shoulder.

Last summer, the old lady thought that her grandson wouldn't be able to survive, but she didn't expect that God would bless the child and he would survive.

The old lady caught Li Wen and asked for help. At this time, the puppy in the basket started barking.

"Hey, where did you get the puppy?" The old lady quickly stepped forward and looked at the puppy in the basket of the car with eyes full of love.

"I was passing through town when I was going home. An old hunter in the mountains was selling a dog to treat his grandson's illness. I saw how pitiful he was and bought it." Li Wen smiled and touched the dog's head and said.

"Okay, I haven't had a dog at home for more than ten years. Dogs come to wealth and cats come to poverty. It is also a blessing for this dog to come to our house. This year should be a good harvest year." The old lady smiled and picked up the puppy from the basket.

came out.

"This dog must be hungry. Let me boil some bran and sweet potato noodles." After saying that, the old lady went directly into the kitchen. It seems that the old lady is also a dog lover.

After a while, the old lady came out with a small chipped bowl. The puppy might be hungry, so he ate hard.

"Grandma, why don't you call this little guy Steamed Bun? I hope our family's life will get better and better in the future, and we can also eat steamed buns like Wo Wo Tou." Li Wen squatted on the ground and looked at the little guy and said.

"This name, steamed buns, steamed buns!" the old lady shouted several times.

The puppy was eating in the yard, and Li Wen moved the bags and boxes in the back seat of the car to the old lady's room.

"Grandma, the bag contains grain, and the box contains fabric shoes and some non-staple food." Li Wen said with a smile, opening the bag and box.

"You kid, you either come back to get it yourself or ask your brother and the others to bring it home every time. We still have a lot of food at home. Several needy households in the village came to borrow food, and your father lent them dozens of kilograms."

"It's not easy for you to make money, Awen. You have to learn to save money in the future so that you can marry a good wife." The old lady said with a smile.

"Grandma, I'm still young and it's still early to marry a wife. You are exaggerating." Li Wen said with a blushing face.

"How early is it? This is the age at which people in rural areas usually get married. You are not young either."

"Our family is doing well now. Your brother said he will become a regular employee in the second half of the year, and we will marry him then. Next year, we will marry your whole brother, and we will marry you the year after that." The old lady laughed.

"I'm still after 20 years old. I'm still young now. I'll develop my career first. I'm also planning to go to the provincial capital." Li Wen shuddered when he heard this. This was clearly arranged!

Quickly changing the subject, grandma said, "The farming has been busy recently, so I won't go to the city for the time being. My eldest brother and the others will be back in a few days."

"I was afraid that there wouldn't be enough food at home, so I brought some extra fine grains so that I could have some good food at home during the busy farming season." He said and quickly took out the food from the bag.

"Here are five kilograms of rice, twenty kilograms of Fuqiang noodles, five kilograms of millet, and five kilograms of mung beans. We will make soup when the farm is busy." Li Wen put the divided grains on the counter.

"Buy some fine grains. Your hands are too big. Coarse cornmeal is the best for us farmers." The old lady twitched her lips as she looked at the fine grains on the counter.
