Chapter 411 This trend cannot last long

Everyone was very happy to see Li Wen, who had not been home for several years, and rushed to give up their seats, some of them smoking.

At the same time, with the arrival of Li Wen, the atmosphere in the room became more lively.

Most of the people in the room grew up with Li Wen naked, and Li Wen didn't look down on anyone.

After counting the people in the room, Li Wen didn't bring out the special gift that Li Wen gave to his elders yesterday, and he didn't have much left.

Smiling, he took out two ordinary packs of Greater China, each worth more than 70 cents, from his pocket and threw them on the table.

"Come on, I haven't been home for a few years. Please smoke well." Li Wen smiled and said hello to everyone.

Although the pockets of people in the village have become a lot richer in recent years, many people in Greater China have still never smoked a pack of more than 70 cents. The main reason is that tickets are too precious and high-end cigarette tickets cannot be obtained by ordinary people.

Young people are all good-natured. When they have money, they no longer smoke Laohan cigarettes when they go out. Instead, they go to agency stores to buy cigarettes.

However, the most common thing I usually buy is Yangqun cigarettes, which cost nine cents a pack. The more high-end cigarettes are either too expensive to bear to buy, or they can't be purchased without a ticket.

At this time, everyone's eyes suddenly lit up when they saw the Great China filter on the table. The two people who were close to the cigarette grabbed the cigarette and put it into their pockets.

"Dirty pig, cowboy, you two are so inhuman."

"Even if I have two packs of cigarettes, I'm not afraid of choking you two to death. Hurry up." As he said that, everyone in the room immediately surrounded the two of them.

For a while, some people pulled their legs, some pulled their clothes, and some pulled their arms. Some even took out cow's seeds in their crotches as punishment.

In less than a few minutes, the two smart-alecks were searched by everyone.

"It's not human!"

"Damn, they are all beasts! Just take out cigarettes when you take out cigarettes, and take out whatever you want on people's and cow's heads."

The two brothers hugged each other and were about to cry for a while, slapping their thighs and yelling at each other for being careless friends.

However, everyone was just having fun, and finally left cigarettes for the two of them, but a few of them were so arrogant that they put the cigarette cases in their pockets.

"Wenzi, do you want to upgrade? Three cents a handful." Several dealers were dealing cards in front of the kang table, and a man named Shouhou greeted Li Wen.

"I won't go to the table. My share will be calculated directly on the big head and will be included together."

Li Wen didn't want to go to the kang, so he watched the boys play and it was fun to spend some money.

"Okay, you and Datou are together, and those who are still suppressing you should hurry up." Slender Monkey shouted loudly.

This group of people are really just having fun, just for fun.

In more than two hours, Li Datou had bad luck today, and Li Wen lost more than 30 cents. He didn't care, it was just a fun time for everyone to play together.

Time flies and it's past three o'clock in the afternoon, and it's time for lunch.

Everyone wakes up late in winter. Life in the village has improved in the past few years, and the original one meal has become two meals.

One meal around ten o'clock, one meal at three or four o'clock in the afternoon.

Li Wenjia had eaten a solid meal in the morning and he was not very hungry, but the others on the kang were already very weak.

Most people in the village just drink some gruel in the morning, and at most have a steamed bun. After playing for a few hours, their stomachs are already empty, and they make gurgling sounds from time to time.

When people are hungry, they have no energy to do anything, and the place cannot survive.

"It's time to go, I'm so hungry that I can't bear it! I have to come back for dinner quickly.

Every day, I drink something thin in the morning and worry about the meal in the afternoon. If I go back, there won’t be any noodle soup." After playing with it, a waiter who couldn’t stand it because he was so hungry jumped off the kang.

Come down.

At the beginning, everyone in the room seemed to be out of school, putting down their cards one after another, saying hello and walking out.

"Wenzi, it's not fun to play this. It only costs a few cents at noon. Can you go push pancakes in the afternoon?" At this time, a young man wearing patches all over his body said with a mean smile.

Li Wen was stunned when he heard this and turned to look at the other party.

"Skinny monkey, this is just for fun, to kill time, do you still expect to get rich from this thing?" Li Wen declined.

"Why can't you get rich? If you play well, you can win dozens of dollars in one night!" The monkey immediately became excited when he heard about getting rich.

Today, Li Wen came to the village to join in the fun, because it was the Chinese New Year. Everyone was wearing clean cotton-padded jackets, and few had patches. This thin monkey was the best among them.

He was wearing an oily cotton-padded jacket that had not been washed for an unknown amount of time. It was shiny and oily, and he had at least forty or fifty patches on his body. It was just patches upon patches.

"Skinny Monkey, pushing pancakes is not the right way. If I had made a fortune by winning tens of dollars, I would have starved to death long ago.

I've played at a special poker venue in Xiangdao, and every time I play, I can get at least several thousand or even tens of thousands. Forget about the tens of dollars!

However, as a child, I still want to advise you to calm down and live a good life!

Look at what your clothes are like. If you can get rich by selling pancakes, how can you dress like this? What you wear in Xiangdao is worse than a beggar." After Li Wen finished speaking, he patted the thin monkey on the shoulder,

I threw a bag at the front door and left.

Shouhou originally thought that Li Wen was a financial backer, so if he took him to play today, he could get some benefit from it.

I never thought that my vision was too narrow. When I heard Li Wen mention numbers as high as thousands or tens of thousands, I was stunned for a moment.

When he came back to his senses, he looked at his oily and shiny cotton-padded jacket, and then thought about Li Wen saying that his clothes were worse than the beggars in Xiangdao. For a moment, it seemed as if his self-esteem had received a huge blow, and his whole person became decadent.

When Li Wen returned home from a stroll, the meal was not ready yet.

Today's lunch at Li Wen's house includes not only his second uncle's family, but also his fourth grandfather's family. After all, we are all very close, so Li Wen will definitely sit down and have a meal together when he comes back.

"Fourth Master, how come there are so many people playing cards in the village in the past few years? This is an evil trend and we don't dare to continue." Li Wen sat down and said.

“In the past few years, the village has developed industries, life has become better, and every household has extra money in their pockets.

There's nothing wrong with playing cards as you mentioned. We just play during the off-season and in the winter, which is considered relaxing. As long as it doesn't delay the farm work and the work team, it's easy to control." The old man explained with a smile.

Hearing what the old man said, Li Wen was a little speechless. This really meant that the village was rich, and even the old man was a little confused.

When Li Wen came back this time, he found that the people in the village were impetuous and spoke with arrogance, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

However, dinner was about to begin, and Li Wen did not spoil everyone's interest. Instead, he kept this problem in his heart and prepared to talk to his father later.

Now my father, Li Deyou, is the deputy captain of the Sanxing Village Brigade. He is also considered a small village official and can do certain things.

Everyone chatted at the door for a while, and as their mother Wang Chunmei's voice sounded that dinner was ready, they all returned to the yard carrying stools.

There are really many people in the family these days. Even if Li Wen's family is not full today, including the fourth grandfather and his family, they can still sit at five tables.

"Xiao Wen, why don't you sit at our table with the two guests?" Fourth Grandpa greeted with a smile.

"Fourth Master, we are all our own people, you are welcome.

You and your elders will eat together, and I will eat together with them." Li Wen waved his hand and refused.

This afternoon's meal consisted of three meat dishes, three vegetable dishes, and one soup, with enough rice.

Rice in the northwest is very valuable. For local people, rice with side dishes is considered the best banquet, and it will be considered rich even in later generations.
