"You guys, didn't I just think about you and our mother because they missed Awen?

If I don't want to be stubborn with you anymore, I'll help Awen unload his things." Li Deyou looked embarrassed and annoyed.

"hehe!"

Li Deyou's embarrassment made Wang Chunmei and the old lady laugh.

"Awen, how is the yard our family built this time? Is it neat? This is the first one in the village in the past few decades.

The house in the middle is reserved for you, you can live in that house when you come back." While unpacking the bag, Li Deyou did not forget to show off the house he built to his son.

Li Wen listened to his old father's pride and nodded with a smile. He understood his father's mood.

There are two biggest things in rural areas, one is to find a wife for his son, and the other is to build a house.

It is relatively easy to marry a wife in these disaster years, but in normal times it will take five or six years of hard work by the family.

Building a decent house is not easy, and it often takes decades of hard work to earn enough.

Therefore, Li Deyou's excited appearance can be fully understood by Li Wen, who traveled through time and experienced the house slave era.

Only by personally experiencing the mortgage loan and paying off the mortgage can you feel the joy of owning a house that is completely your own.

"Dad, you are so awesome." Li Wen replied with a smile.

"Ha ha!"

When Li Deyou heard Li Wen's praise, he felt happy and couldn't help laughing.

"Awen, don't pay attention to him. You can build a house without even knowing his surname and his age. He has been acting awkward in front of others all day long, and it's not because of my son's help." Wang Chunmei rolled her eyes at Li Deyou and scolded with a smile.

"Humph! Isn't it right for a son to be filial to me?" Li Deyou raised his head proudly.

"Mom, it's okay. My dad is happy, so it doesn't matter if he talks about it." Li Wen sat on the small bench and smiled as he watched his parents bicker.

"Oh! Awen, why did you get so much mutton? This thing is a valuable commodity." At this time, Wang Chunmei, who was counting the items in the bag, said in surprise.

"Didn't I go to New Province on a business trip some time ago? There are Gobi deserts, deserts and grasslands everywhere in New Province. You can't grow food, you can only raise cattle and sheep.

I brought back a sheep, which I just killed last night. The weather can't keep it for long now, so I cooked it all at noon today." Li Wen explained with a smile.

"You made them all today? This is too much, only twenty pounds!" Wang Chunmei weighed the meat and said.

"The marinated mutton doesn't taste good. After cooking, there are only a dozen kilograms left. For lunch, we will have mutton steamed buns and give some to Fourth Master and his family.

Our family will keep food for two days, and send some to grandma, second aunt, and aunt in the remaining afternoon." Li Wen thought for a moment and said.

"You kid, if I had known earlier, you might as well have gotten some pork! I can't eat so much meat at home, so I'll just give it to others." Wang Chunmei said feeling a little distressed when she heard that she was going to give it away.

When Li Wen saw his mother's distressed expression, a smile appeared on his face, but he sighed in his heart.

These were difficult times for the family. My father married his eldest brother and used up all the pork left in the family. The family rarely ate meat.

Even though her grandparents were Wang Chunmei's own parents, Wang Chunmei was reluctant to give it away.

"Mom, it's just a few kilograms of meat! Don't feel bad. My grandmother and aunt's family are not rich, and they don't eat meat even once in several months.

Our family is in good condition, and I can’t come back more than a few times a year, so it’s only right to honor them." Li Wen comforted them with a smile.

"Hmph! As long as you can, I don't know how to honor your grandparents."

Wang Chunmei was a little embarrassed by what her son said, and gently patted the back of Li Wen's head.

"Hey! Mom, don't feel bad. The mutton is gone. We still have beef jerky and milk dumplings.

This beef jerky can be stored for a long time, and the milk pimples can be eaten until next year. If you don’t give it to them, our family will keep it for ourselves.” Li Wenwen opened the small bag containing the beef jerky and milk pimples like a treasure.

"You spend money randomly in one day, and you don't know how to save it when you have money. I'll see how you get a wife in the future." Wang Chunmei scolded with a smile.

"Second brother, this milk lump is too sour, and the dried meat is delicious!" At this time, the little girl Li Juan on the side said with a groan.

Li Wen turned around and saw that the little guy's mouth was bulging and his hands were full of snacks.

"You are a dead woman, you look like you are dead when you see good things, you eat all kinds of things, were you reincarnated as a beggar in your last life?

Call your third brother back quickly. Your second brother made mutton today and will have mutton steamed buns for lunch." Wang Chunmei on the side cursed when she saw Li Juan's appearance.

The little guy is most afraid of his mother at home. When he saw Wang Chunmei's face turned down, he quickly lifted his buttocks from the steps. He packed the snacks, patted the dust on his buttocks, and ran away in a hurry.

Li Wen couldn't help but laugh when he saw that the little girl didn't forget to grab a handful of melon seeds before leaving.

"This broken woman is not like you and your brother when they were young, so you are really worried." Wang Chunmei scolded at the side.

"Okay, eldest daughter-in-law. The situation at home is different now. In the past, Wen Wazi and the others didn't have anything they wanted to eat!" the old lady advised from the side.

"Mom, what I said is right. Girls should be raised rich. If they eat bran and vegetables all day long, they will run away when they grow up." Li Wen said with a smile.

"Get away quickly, it's not your turn to teach my children. You have the biggest hand for one day, save it later." Wang Chunmei rolled her eyes at Li Wen and said.

"Hehe!" Li Wen didn't dare to refute, I'm not easy to mess with.

"Wen Wazi, your mother is right, buy less stuff in the future, this bag of stuff costs 100 yuan at least!

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, you will be 17 years old, and you will get married in two years. From now on, you must learn to live a happy life and save some money." The old lady sat aside and talked about her experience.

"Milk, don't worry, I know how to save money. But you still have to eat what you need to eat. The body is the capital of revolution.

Over the past year or so, I have been writing frequently and have saved a lot of money. I am preparing to honor you! This is fifty yuan in change for your daily pocket money.

And mom, this is 300 yuan. My eldest brother is getting married in March and building a house, so the family’s savings will definitely be low. Let’s keep it for the family!”

Li Wen smiled and took out two stacks of money notes from his pocket and handed them to the old lady and mother respectively.

"Why are you paying for milk? I just need to eat steamed buns and rice for the day. I don't need any money at all." The old lady quickly waved her hand.

"Yes, Awen, we still have some money at home! You can save it and buy a house in the provincial capital in the future." Wang Chunmei also quickly refused.

"Mom, let me tell you the truth! I still have a small ten thousand yuan in my hand, which is enough to spend. This is to honor you." Li Wen put his arm around his mother's shoulders and said.

"Where did you get so much money? You don't dare to commit corruption when purchasing. Although our family is not rich, we are still decent people." Li Deyou said in surprise.

"Dad, you worry about nothing all day long, I saved this all from writing.

Public money is not so easy to be corrupted. It is difficult to embezzle dozens of yuan, let alone thousands of yuan!" Li Wen said with a smile.

"No, that's fine. No matter what we do when we go out from now on, we must hold our waist high and behave ourselves." Li Deyou dusted the cigarette ashes from his son's hand.

"Don't worry, dad! If your son can donate so much money, he will definitely not be involved in corruption or bribery.

Without further ado, I will show you a treasure, this is a family heirloom." Li Wen said as he took out a silk package from his satchel.

"What is so expensive? It's actually wrapped in silk." Several people on the side were surprised.

Li Wen did not answer, but carefully opened the silk package and took out the document bag inside.

"Dad, grandma, you are very literate. Let's see who signed this seal." Li Wen opened the 40-centimeter copybook for the two of them to look at.

"Run, ah! Which old man's chapter is it?" Li Deyou asked tremblingly.

"Yeah!" Li Wen smiled and nodded.

"This, this is a priceless treasure! Boy, did you get it?" Li Deyou was very excited.
Chapter completed!
