Chapter 361 Etiquette, Righteousness and Integrity
As Ding Fengxia spoke, she touched her daughter and looked up at her with curious eyes.
Then he explained, "Your dad said that he was in a meeting, and your Uncle Li called over. He praised Li Xuewu for no reason, and also said that Li Xuewu asked your Aunt Zhang to protect our matchmaker in Xiaoning."
.
Mu Hongyan was curious when he first heard about Uncle Li, but now he heard about Aunt Zhang and knew which family they were from.
"Why did Li Xuewu go there to ask for help?"
Mu Hongyan stared and asked, "Can't even hit these eight poles?"
Ding Fengxia smiled and said, "Listen to me, I haven't put down the phone yet. Yu Huaiyou from the Ministry of Industrial Safety called your dad again and said he wanted to protect Li Xuewu."
"ah?!"
At this moment, Mu Hongyan was even more surprised. How come the people Li Xuewu was looking for were in one place and another in the west? This was not related.
"Isn't their family an ordinary family?"
"Hahahahaha"
Seeing that her daughter-in-law was just as surprised as she was when she heard the news, Ding Fengxia couldn't help but smile and said, "Li Xuewu didn't rely on family connections to find a matchmaker, he relied entirely on his own ability."
Although Yu Huaiyou told Li Xuewu to wait until a time was set to find him again, why would he wait until then to tell Gu Haitao.
I learned a day later that Li Xuewu had graduated, so it was a good time to call and ask about it tonight.
Coincidentally, Director Li also thought the same way.
"Please tell me quickly"
The fire of gossip in Mu Hongyan's eyes was burning brightly, and even Gu Ning looked at his mother curiously at this moment.
I don’t know what that person did to make my mother so happy.
Ding Fengxia smiled and explained the case Li Xuewu solved, because Yu Huaiyou didn't say much to Gu Haitao and focused on praising Li Xuewu.
So it doesn't sound too thrilling right now.
But being able to get that gentleman's approval, especially for solving such an important case, still made Mu Hongyan and Gu Ning open their mouths in surprise.
"He can really mess with it!"
Mu Hongyan sighed with emotion, and then said to her mother-in-law, "This man is really qualified for this industry. He has made such a great contribution. He seemed like nothing happened on the road. He didn't even say anything. Has his mouth been locked?"
.
As he spoke, he looked at Gu Ning and said, "After your brother made a meritorious service, he wanted to tell me how he made the meritorious service every second. He also had to ask me if I was happy, but look at you, tsk tsk tsk tsk."
~"
Ding Fengxia nodded with satisfaction and said, "Maybe your dad has taken a liking to him and said that he is calm and dignified, and that he is a person who can get things done."
Mu Hongyan covered his mouth and said with a smile, "I don't think he is serious."
Seeing her daughter-in-law say this, Ding Fengxia smiled and asked, "What's wrong?"
Mu Hongyan glanced at his sister-in-law and said, "He went to see Gu Ning in a dirty uniform. His colleagues in the office laughed at him, saying that he was a little guard, and Xiao Ning was blinded by him."
Knowing that her mother-in-law felt sorry for her sister-in-law, Mu Hongyan didn't say any more unpleasant words and just said this.
"But he is good. No matter what people say about him, he doesn't take it seriously. He looks calm and composed."
"Don't talk to them"
Ding Fengxia touched her daughter's hair and said, "As long as you live a happy life, you don't need to care about what others say. We don't want to live for them."
"Um"
Gu Ning nodded and agreed softly.
Even without her mother's advice, Gu Ning knew how to get along with those people.
She has been a special child in the eyes of her teachers since she was a child, and she is also a special being among her classmates.
That's why she has a somewhat withdrawn and cold personality now.
Ever since she was young, she had become accustomed to those who talked about her behind her back and to her face, and she took it lightly.
That's why I stopped my sister-in-law from arguing with those people in the office today.
It's not that he's afraid of them, Gu Ning just feels that interpersonal relationships are too tiring and he's too lazy to fight.
Mu Hongyan was also afraid that his sister-in-law would remember what was said in the office, so he changed the topic.
"Is dad happy?"
"Ha ha ha ha"
Ding Fengxia thought of Gu Haitao's complaint to her just now, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Your dad is busy. He was so confused by these two phone calls that he didn't know what was going on."
"Hahaha, it was Yu Huaiyou who explained it to him, and then he figured it out."
"Kick-kick"
When Mu Hongyan heard this, he could imagine his father-in-law's stunned expression after hearing these two phone calls.
"You still don't know who your father is?"
Ding Fengxia said with a smile, "It's just like that when you're happy. You asked me if I knew. When I heard that I didn't know, I was obviously happy."
As he spoke, he looked at the two of them and said, "Your dad told Li Xuewu to tell him in advance if he makes any big moves in the future. He can't be the last to know. It's too embarrassing, hahahaha."
This was obviously said backwards. Gu Haitao was the happiest when he was the last to know.
Mu Hongyan nodded with a smile and said, "You should be happy. You have found such a capable uncle. What a shameless person!"
"Ha ha ha ha"
Li Xuewu drove the car into the west courtyard garage, filled the water tank, and then followed Wen San'er who opened the door and walked into the house.
When I entered the reverse room, I saw a bunch of heads in the room.
Qingxiyuan'er was busy with something, and these boys were told by Mr. Ye to stay in the room and not allowed to go out.
When these boys saw Wen Saner coming in accompanied by Li Xuewu, they all stopped talking.
Especially the uniform Li Xuewu was wearing and the handle of the gun hanging from the holster on his chest after taking off his coat.
"Hey, it's so lively here!"
Li Xuewu looked at these boys with a smile, and then looked at his grandfather and second master sitting on the kang.
"I heard that Xiao Yaner went to the countryside again?"
Seeing that Li Xuewu still had the same attitude as before, Mr. Ye couldn't help but feel a little relieved.
He was really worried that Li Xuewu would get angry as soon as he entered the house and drive these boys and him out.
"yes"
From the corner of his eye, Ye Erye saw Li Xuewu's grandfather just nodding his head without saying a word, and he understood what his eldest grandma meant.
So now he can only speak, because it was him Li Xuewu asked.
"There are people in our countryside who want tables, chairs and benches like this. They go out in a carriage and come back with only a few tabletops left."
“Really good”
Li Xuewu washed his hands under Yu Li's service, wiped them on a towel, walked into the back room and said, "But don't be tired. It's not the first month yet. It's cold, so be careful about freezing."
The more heartwarming Li Xuewu's caring words were, the more uncomfortable Ye Erye seemed.
This uneasiness reached its peak when Yu Li and Xiao Yan'er kept bringing food to the table.
These boys had their eyes wide open when they saw the table full of delicious food. Not to mention the past, they had never seen so many delicious food even after they had been here for so many days.
But Lao Biaozi and the others standing by saw that Mr. Ye's face turned pale.
Li Xuewu got on the kang table, and without looking at the boys standing on the ground, he smiled, reached for the wine jug, and poured wine into the wine cups in front of his grandfather and Mr. Ye.
On this kang table, only grandpa and Ye Erye are sitting on the kang, and Li Xuewu is sitting in the middle.
Lao Biaozi and the others stood on the ground in a polite manner, not daring to serve at the table right now.
Even Wen San'er, who was a generation older than Li Xuewu, stood aside with his hands stern, looking at the kang with breathless concentration.
The atmosphere in the room gradually became tense, and these boys also felt that something was wrong.
Looking at Mr. Ye's face, everyone was like little chickens hiding from the wind and rain. They were all crowded together, as if they were afraid that taking up space would affect the person on the kang eating.
"It's been a while since the second master came."
Li Xuewu finished pouring the wine, placed the wine bottle at the end of the table, and asked in a gentle tone.
Ye Erye tried his best to straighten his back, calmed down and said, "Yes, it's been a month."
"Hehehe"
Li Xuewu looked at the dishes in front of him, then looked at Mr. Ye, and asked, "How is life here? Biaozi and the others are not bad at hospitality, right?"
At first, I saw Li Xuewu smiling and speaking in a relaxed and warm tone.
But as Li Xuewu's words came out word by word, the cold and sharp tone in his tone was felt even by Silly Zhu, who was standing at the door and looking over.
He Yuyu, who came over for dinner after get off work, encountered this scene as soon as she entered the door, which shocked her.
She had never seen Li Xuewu get angry, nor had she ever seen such a powerful person.
Just as he was about to ask his brother, Silly Zhu pulled his arm and stopped him.
Everyone is waiting for Ye Erye, who is sitting diagonally across from Li Xuewu, to answer the question just now.
Ye Erye's face turned pale, his eyes looked at Li
While learning martial arts, I thought about what I had experienced during the days I lived here.
He gritted his teeth again and again, pinched his knees again and again, but in the end he did not dare to answer Li Xuewu's question.
"Plop!"
While everyone was quietly looking at the kang, they saw a young man standing in front of these boys kneeling on the ground.
"Dong...Dong, please don't embarrass me."
The young man knelt down and begged Li Xuewu, "Thank you so much for taking me in these days. We are leaving now. We don't dare to disturb my boss."
Seeing what the young man in front said, some of the boys behind him also knelt down.
But some were still standing behind. One of the younger ones frowned and looked at the one kneeling in front, raised his head and stared at Li Xuewu’s side face and shouted, “We are not begging!”
"Xiaojie, shut up!"
Second Master Ye turned his head and stared at the child who was talking and said, "The food from the past few days went into the dog's belly? How can you talk?"
The kid named Xiaojie stared and said, "We don't eat his food for free, we work for him, we pay him back, we don't owe him anything!"
As soon as this kid's words came out, not only the expressions of the guys who came with him changed, but even the old guy who took them in frowned.
Second Master Ye even trembled with trembling lips and was speechless.
"Hehehe"
Li Xuewu didn't even look at the boy who was shouting underground, his eyes were always fixed on Mr. Ye.
"It seems that we did not entertain you well. How about we invite these gentlemen to come to the table and have a few drinks with us to calm down?"
"Hey, I made a mistake."
Old Biaozi's face was full of anger, and he said with a sneer, "I didn't expect that my good intentions would be treated like a donkey's liver and lungs, okay...".
Seeing Lao Biaozi talking, Wen Saner slapped him and signaled him to shut up.
The old Biaozi took a bite and remembered what Li Xuewu said at noon, so he turned his head away from his anger and did not look at the boys huddled in the corner.
Ye Erye smiled miserably on his pale face, then shivered and knelt on the kang while holding on to the table.
The grandma sitting aside looked at him like this and frowned, but didn't say anything.
"Master, it's my fault. I broke the rules. I accept the punishment!"
Ye Erye knelt down and spoke, and everyone's expressions changed.
Lao Biaozi was startled and gritted his teeth to prevent himself from speaking out.
Wen San'er frowned and looked at her grandma sitting on the kang.
Silly Zhu, who was standing outside the door, opened his mouth in surprise. If the rain hadn't pulled him, he almost made a sound.
He Yuyu didn't know what was going on in the house, but Li Xuewu looked a little scary.
Even though he was smiling, it wasn't funny.
Especially when Ye Erye, who was so old, knelt down in front of Li Xuewu and bowed his head to admit his mistake, especially when there were only these three people on the kang, this scene really showed who was in charge of the house.
Li Xuewu's face still had the same look on his face, and he asked with a smile, "What are you doing, Second Master? By doing this, aren't you making my brother unethical?"
Ye Erye trembled at the corner of his mouth, nodded and said, "It's my fault, it's me who made the buttons for Biaozi, it's my greed, it's my fault."
"Alas~"
Li Xuewu sighed and said, "Second Master, you still don't regard us as your own."
"I know I know"
Ye Er Ye nodded and said, "It's because I didn't think right."
Seeing that Mr. Ye admitted his mistake, Lao Biaozi's face lost the ferocious look before, and he looked at the old man on the kang with some sadness.
Everyone else's faces looked heavy when they heard this.
The few children who were still standing saw that Mr. Ye knelt down and admitted his mistake, so they also knelt down hesitantly.
Only Xiaojie, who had spoken just now, was still stunned.
Li Xuewu supported the kang with his hands and turned around, facing the boys on the ground.
"You are already a grown-up, why should you kneel here if you can't make a living somewhere?"
After hearing Li Xuewu's words, some children raised their heads and looked at the kang.
He looked at Li Xuewu and also at Mr. Ye.
But at this moment, Li Xuewu only had a face full of ridicule, and Mr. Ye just knelt there, not daring to say a word.
If Li Xuewu was serious today, let alone him, even these children would suffer.
Seeing Li Xuewu say these words, Mr. Ye's heart dropped a little.
The master leads you in, and practice is personal.
All he can do is point out a clear path for these boys. As for how to go and whether to go, it depends on the fate of these boys.
These boys all understood the meaning of Li Xuewu's words. Some were blushing, while others were pale.
Even Xiaojie, who was stunned just now, looked at Li Xuewu with wide eyes.
Li Xuewu sat on the kang and continued to taunt, "Second Master Ye is an old man, so he still knows how to work here to support himself. If you don't want to eat and drink for free, what about you?"
As he spoke, he looked at the food on the table and said, "I live in my place, eat my food, and drink my food. You even boasted that you were working for me. What have you done? It can hold up to thirteen and a half people."
What food do you have to eat? A hot bed to sleep on?"
Seeing what Li Xuewu said, the child who knelt down first kowtowed to the ground three times and said, "Thank you, boss. Thank you, boss. Xiaojie is young and ignorant. You, sir, have a lot..."
"Small, right?"
Li Xuewu grinned and said, "Would you like to eat less?"
When Xiaojie saw Li Xuewu humiliating them like this, he gritted his teeth and said, "Tell me what you want, and I'll give it back to you."
"Xiaojie!"
The child next to him pulled the only kid still standing.
But this kid was also stubborn. He threw away his companion's hand and glared at Li Xuewu with his neck raised.
"Hey, okay"
Li Xuewu smiled and said, "You're thinking of borrowing something, right? OK, you see the one kneeling here, he's already an older man, because you owe me a debt, please pay it back."
"you!"
When Xiaojie saw what Li Xuewu said, he stared and wanted to argue with Li Xuewu.
But Li Xuewu ignored him and continued, "This Biaozi who took you in, because the second master deceived his feelings in order to take you in, please pay him back."
"I……"
"Sister-in-law Yu Li over there boils water and cooks for you every day, don't you owe her anything? Just pay her back."
Li Xuewu looked at the blushing boy and smiled and said, "Finally, I'll pay back my food and accommodation fees. It's not much. Just give me 10 yuan per person. You don't want more, right?"
The boys who had looked up just now all lowered their heads when they heard Li Xuewu's words.
The remaining standing Xiaojie also turned pale when he heard Li Xuewu talking about the amount of money.
Not to mention ten dollars, he couldn't even take out one dollar. His pocket was really cleaner than his face.
Li Xuewu smiled and said, "I am the head of public security in Dongcheng. Anyone who lives on the street must call me grandpa. Are you going to play your tricks with me in Dongcheng?"
Although he was smiling when he said this, it was frightening to a few people's ears.
No one dared to doubt Li Xuewu's words, because what Li Xuewu told was the truth.
"Think I want your arms, legs, and fingers? How much are these pieces of stinky meat worth?"
"I...I will work when I grow up to earn money to pay you back!"
"Come on"
Li Xuewu said sarcastically, "You are so ungrateful and shameless. You can't give it to me now. I have to wait until you grow up?"
As he spoke, he drooped his eyelids and said, "It's not certain whether you can grow up!"
"I will pay it back!"
"What are you doing here? Picking up horse manure? Hahaha!"
Li Xuewu tapped his fingers on the kang and said, "Okay, don't talk about morality here. I feed a dog with so much food, and it has to wag its tail with me here. You guys? Haha."
Seeing what Li Xuewu said was unpleasant, these children all raised their heads and looked over.
Although they are still young, their weather-beaten faces have a fierceness to them.
If this force is used correctly, it will lead to rapid success; if it is used wrongly, it will become bigger and stronger.
Li Xuewu had a sneer smile on his face, and the scar was jumping up and down, which was really scary.
Not only is his face scary, but his words are also scary.
"If I feed a dog, and it still yells at me after it has eaten and slept, I have to kill it, peel off its skin, and eat its flesh."
Li Xuewu's voice was very slow, and every word was heard by these boys. All they could think about was Li Xuewu eating human flesh and peeling off human skin.
It's not that these boys have seen people cannibalizing, but Li Xuewu looks like one who cannibalizes people.
The Xiaojie who just spoke had his legs trembling now. He was really afraid that Li Xuewu would come down with a knife and kill them all.
There is no law in these kids' minds, because they don't have enough to eat, so what's the use of the law?
What they know and believe in is the law of the forest where the jungle prevails.
Now Li Xuewu uses the laws of the forest to help them learn to understand the law and change their outlook on life and values. ??
"You are already here today. Regardless of whether my brother is right or not, I will never talk about him again."
Li Xuewu narrowed his eyes and said, "But you guys, pack up and go back to pick up horse manure with your Mr. Ye. Leave now. You are not allowed to come near here in the future. I will clean up whoever dares to come."
Seeing Li Xuewu say this, Lao Biaozi stretched the corners of his mouth and glanced at Li Xuewu, but did not dare to speak.
Wen Saner, on the other hand, was looking at these boys with drooped eyelids.
Others felt that Li Xuewu was somewhat unkind, but this was the recycling bin's business and Li Xuewu's own business.
These boys looked lonely as Ye Erye, who had been implicated by them, knelt on the kang, got up and got off the kang.
The boy who knelt down and kowtowed earlier looked at Mr. Ye, then moved and knelt directly in front of Li Xuewu.
"My name is Huo Yongfang. I am sixteen years old. I want to work for you. Please take me in. Please spare me."
This boy's words surprised everyone in the room, especially the boys with him.
"Brother, what are you doing?"
"That's right, people have kicked us out!"
"Brother, let's go back without asking him!"
"Brother..."
Several children came over to persuade her, but Huo Yongfang waved away everyone's hands.
Then he knelt on the ground and looked Li Xuewu in the face and said, "You are a good person, and you are also a kind person. It is not unfair for me to kowtow to you."
As he spoke, he kowtowed to Li Xuewu and then said, "Thank you for leaving us to eat and drink for free. They have never studied and do not understand etiquette. I beg your forgiveness."
As he spoke, he kowtowed again and said, "Know your shame and then be brave. If you are ignorant of etiquette, justice and integrity, you will not be respected by others."
"We are indeed not beggars, but we eat the food that grandpa asked for with peace of mind. We are shameless."
Xiaojie, who was standing behind and felt aggrieved just now, was dumbfounded now. He thought that they were not begging for food, but they were eating the food that others asked for.
"boom"
Huo Yongfang kowtowed for the third time and said, "You are mocking us and humiliating us. In fact, you are telling us that pie in the sky will not fall into the sky, and you are also giving us a way out."
"You are a good person. I know that grandpa wants to find a right path for us and doesn't want us to live in confusion."
"Please give us a chance and don't drive my grandpa away. If it's because of us that grandpa sleeps with us again, then we will really be dogs instead of people."
"We will never be able to repay the favors you mentioned in our lifetime, but we want to pay them back, really, we want to pay them back!"
Li Xuewu's face still looked the same, and there was not even the slightest change because of Huo Yongfang's words.
After listening to Huo Yongfang's words, other children also understood what Li Xuewu and Ye Erye meant.
"Plop"
One by one, the boys moved or came over and knelt down again, their faces no longer showing the forcedness and embarrassment they had before.
The stubborn Xiaojie from before was also pulled by his companion and he knelt down.
Seeing these boys kneeling, Li Xuewu didn't say anything. After waiting for a while, the eldest grandma sitting on the kang spoke.
"Second brother, let's get on the kang and eat."
Seeing the eldest grandma speaking, everyone inside and outside the room breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that there was a turn for the better.
When Ye Erye heard his eldest grandma speaking, he raised his head and looked at Li Xuewu.
Li Xuewu squinted his eyes and looked at the thirteen boys on the ground.
"It would be too false to say it lasts a lifetime, haha."
Seeing Li Xuewu speak, Huo Yongfang knelt on the ground and begged, "Please give us a chance."
Li Xuewu nodded and said, "If you want to leave this door today, you can go out easily. You don't have to pay me back the ten yuan, and you don't have to bear any burden."
"I do not go!"
"Yes, I won't leave!"
"I can't leave for grandpa's sake!"
"Hehehe"
Li Xuewu smiled and continued, "But if you don't leave today, it will be difficult for you to leave again."
"Please rest assured, I will work hard."
Hearing that Li Xuewu wanted to relent, Guangliuer Avenue was right in front of him, and everyone could see that the conditions here were better than before.
In addition, there are people here who can follow me, and the cadre sitting on the kang is a good boss. Who would be willing to pick up horse manure.
"Since you don't want to leave, then tell me a few rules."
Li Xuewu put away the smile on his face and said, "You can live here with me, but you can't live in vain. When you have to work, you should go out to collect firewood."
"It's okay to eat here, but you can't eat for free. Those who have to pay should pay. If you don't have money, you'll be hungry."
“Thank you, boss!”
Li Xuewu waved his hand and said, "Don't thank me too much, I haven't finished yet."
"Remember, there is no boss here"
"You are not from here either"
"Here, I kindly take you in and give you a nest."
"We, it doesn't matter"
Li Xuewu made his words clear, then pointed at Mr. Ye and said, "Your grandfather will protect you. If you make mistakes, I will go to him."
As he spoke, he pointed to Lao Biaozi and said, "He made a mistake first and said he would take you in. If you make a mistake, I will deal with him."
After explaining the powerful relationship, Li Xuewu explained to Wen San'er who was standing, "Keep the accounts for them. This is a small business and we can't support anyone idle."
After finishing speaking, Li Xuewu made an invitation gesture to the second master Ye and said, "When the second master regards me, Li Xuewu, and my brothers as one of his own, you will understand our feelings."
"yes"
Mr. Ye said to the people kneeling on the ground, "Introduce yourself."
Huo Yongfang kowtowed again, and then introduced himself again, "My name is Huo Yongfang, I am sixteen years old."
After the introduction, he stood up and stepped aside.
The boy behind also imitated Huo Yongfang's example, kowtowed, introduced himself, stood up, and stepped aside.
"Meng Yongxiang, sixteen years old"
"Xi Yongzhong, sixteen years old"
"..."
After the introduction, the thirteen boys stood on both sides.
Second Master Ye got on the kang and said to Li Xuewu, "They are all children without fathers and mothers. The one who has stayed with me the least has been more than four years, and I gave him all his names."
Wen San'er also took off his shoes and got on the kang, and said to Mr. Ye, "We are a cooperative group, not a gang. Let's talk ugly first. If you have character problems, no need to learn martial arts. I have to ask you out first."
”.
"Starting tomorrow, these boys will go out to collect rags. I will put down the cost first. No matter who it is, I will give them a suitable price. It depends on them how much they earn."
Ye Erye nodded and said, "I will do this for you, and I will teach you."
Old Biaozi also got on the kang and sat next to Li Xuewu. He glanced at the boy standing on the ground, turned to Mr. Ye and said, "Man, you are not interesting enough."
Second Master Ye nodded and said, "I'm not loyal anymore. You can educate these guys more in the future."
Shen Guodong and Erhai'er got on the kang, but they didn't say anything, except that Erhaier took a steamed bun from the bamboo basket beside the kang and gave it to Mr. Ye.
He was born an orphan, and he lived by picking up horse manure. He knew the suffering of these orphans, and he also understood the kindness of Mr. Ye who was willing to ruin his own retirement conditions.
Li Xuewu said to the boys still standing on the ground, "Get on the kang and eat."
Although the people in the room heard what Li Xuewu said, no one dared to move. They were all still looking at Li Xuewu's face.
Silly Zhu stood at the door and wiped his hands with a towel, pushed a boy standing nearby and said, "I want you to go to the kang for dinner. Go quickly."
Following Si Zhu's words, these boys looked at Li Xuewu who was on the kang but did not look this way, and then they let Huo Yongfang take the lead and get on the kang.
Good guy, it was as lively as the wedding day of Wen San'er, the big kang was full.
Li Xuewu and others sat at one table, and the boys, Yu Li, Xiao Yaner and others sat at three tables.
The family must have a lot of money to be able to support so many children.
Silly Zhu sat at Li Xuewu's table and let Yu Yu sit at Yu Li's side.
"I said, your little canteen really needs to be put on the agenda.
"
After hearing what Sha Zhu said, Lao Biaozi looked at Li Xuewu and asked, "Is it convenient for us to open a canteen?"
Li Xuewu thought about it while holding the steamed bun in his hand, and said, "It's okay. You can tell the street later that there are many people working here and the price is fair."
Of course Lao Biaozi didn't mean what he asked. He looked at Wen San'er who was sitting across from him and was already mentally calculating what happened in the canteen.
"The canteen should be in the east room. Put some tables and chairs. The environment should be clean, and the kitchen should also be clean."
When Li Xuewu said this, he looked at the three tables of "Thirteen Taibao" on the kang, and said to Wen San'er, "When the east room is tidied up, let's set up a fire kang, and don't squeeze the meat cakes."
"knew"
Wen San'er agreed, looked at the tables over there, and then said, "Tomorrow, tomorrow, I can pack it up while packing up the car. The bricks are all ready-made. Just put them on with some mud." ".
After speaking, he hesitated for a moment and asked, "Is our small canteen open to the outside world?"
Li Xuewu thought for a while and said, "It's not open to the public for the time being, but we won't stop it. If you want to eat, buy it with food stamps."
“That’s easy”
Wen San'er nodded and said, "Otherwise, we would have to open the door and windows outside."
"Well, wait a minute."
Li Xuewu nodded, didn't say much on this matter, and concentrated on eating.
He Yuyu sat opposite Li Xuewu, keeping his eyes on Li Xuewu.
We used to live in the same courtyard. Not to mention how familiar we are, but we still understand the basic situation and temperament. After all, we can be considered as peers.
But today, Li Xuewu's handling of Ye Er Ye and these children's affairs made He Yuyu look at Li Xuewu with admiration.
This kind of skill is not what a twenty-year-old young man should have. The domineering and aura in his words and deeds shocked the whole room, men, women and children, and they didn't dare to breathe.
When we got along before, I only saw the smiling side of Li Xuewu, but today I really saw the other side of Li Xuewu.
After everyone put down their chopsticks, Yu Li and Xiao Yan were about to go down to pick up the table, but the boys on the kang jumped off the ground first.
Those who picked up the tables, washed the dishes, wiped the kang, and swept the floor all made Li Xuewu dizzy.
When have there been so many people in this house? It's so noisy.
Li Xuewu got off the kang and put on his shoes. He looked at the children's clothes and said to Yu Li and Xiao Yan'er, "If you have time, let them sew and mend them. Let them wash and clean them by themselves."
The last sentence was said to Mr. Ye.
After Ye Erye learned this lesson, he knew how powerful Li Xuewu was. He nodded and said, "I understand, take them to the opposite side to take a bath regularly."
After taking one look at the old man, Li Xuewu turned around and walked out to the backyard.
As soon as I walked out of the screen door, I saw my second child chasing after me.
"Brother Wu!"
"Why!"
Li Xuewu agreed and turned back, seeing the second child handing over an envelope.
"Northeast?"
"No, from the city"
"From the city?"
Li Xuewu frowned and looked at the envelope. The city was so close, so why bother writing a letter from Mao'er?
When Li Xuewu saw the sender and address on the envelope through the light from the window, he realized that this was really Mao'er's letter.
The letter written by Mao Zi is not Mao's letter. It is from the SL Foreign Affairs Office and contains Li Shu's alimony.
Li Xuewu opened the envelope and saw a withdrawal voucher inside. With this voucher, you can go to the post office to collect 20 rubles.
As for why taking off his pants and farting in the foreign embassy was unnecessary, Li Xuewu had already figured it out.
This is the same as a report letter. When it is passed through the post office, evidence must be left behind.
It's not to guard against Li Xuewu, it may be for their domestic investigation.
"Hehehe"
Li Xuewu looked at the voucher, smiled and said, "Maozi gave you the money for your niece's milk powder."
After explaining it to the second child, I walked back.
But the second child still pulled Li Xuewu and said, "Brother Wu, those...".
Li Xuewu turned his head and asked with a smile, "Do you think I'm too harsh?"
"is either or……"
Li Xuewu patted the second child on the shoulder and said, "Signing up favors and fighting over rivals are not the same thing as between us brothers."
"oh"
The second child nodded as if he understood, and explained in a low voice, "It reminds me of my time."
Li Xuewu put his hand on the second child's shoulder, squeezed it, and comforted him, "Don't think too much, you still have us."
"Um"
The second child smiled and agreed, then turned around and returned to the back room.
This little brother is a sensible person, does not cause trouble, and is also very clever.
It's just that life is a bit bitter.
After sighing with emotion, Li Xuewu abandoned his family and went to his home.
The main reason he went home was to see Li Shun. Although his father was a bit harsh on him, Li Xuewu knew that his father paid more attention to him.
Li Shun was also very happy to see Li Xuewu enter the house.
But the words that came out of his mouth were all reproachful.
It started with Li Xuewu leaving home in a hurry and ended with Li Xuewu spending money randomly to buy those seafood products at home.
They told each other what Li Xuewu should not do and what was wrong.
Liu Yin, who had scolded Li Xuewu in the afternoon, now began to defend her son and not let Li Shun speak.
Li Xuewu sat there quietly, playing with Li Shu in his arms and listening to his father and mother's nagging.
In the past, it was annoying for his parents to talk about this and that, but now Li Xuewu doesn't find it annoying, and he has the patience to listen to what Li Shun has to say.
I'm not angry or annoyed. You say what you want and I just listen.
Don't wait until your parents are old before you say things like how your children want to be raised but cannot be loved by you. Why can't you spend more time with your parents?
Seeing Li Xuewu's gentle look, Li Shun stopped blaming him.
This kid doesn't resist, it's so boring to talk, and there is no reason to copy the soles of shoes.
Besides, Li Shun still didn't want to talk too much about Li Xuewu in front of his granddaughter.
"What's going on over there in your unit? Why is there word of progress?"
When Li Shun saw Li Shu rolling around in Li Xuewu's arms, he smiled and picked Li Shu up in his arms, teasing her while asking about his son.
Li Xuewu teased Li Shu with the dried fish and replied, "It's progress."
Hearing Li Xuewu's affirmative answer, Li Shun frowned and said, "You haven't just made progress, why have you made progress again?"
"Look what you said!"
Liu Yin glared at Li Shun and said, "Is that what you say about your child? Ah, progress is not good? People are happy when their children make progress, but you still want your son to run slower?"
"What do you know?"
Although Li Shun is the head of the family, he mostly listens to Liu Yin at home.
Regarding Li Xuewu's matter, the two of them had a lot of bickering.
Li Shun looked at Li Xuewu and said, "Take it easy. How old are you? Why are you progressing so fast? Even the Four-Nine City can't let you go."
"yes"
Before his mother could get anxious, Li Xuewu nodded with a smile and said, "I'll talk to the leader later. I'm still young, so I can take over the responsibility a little later."
If he had said this a month ago, Fu Bin would have been able to sing to Li Shun, "Listen to me and thank you, because of you...".
"Look!"
Liu Yin glared at Li Shun and said, "My son is so sensible and practical, why can't he make progress faster?"
When Li Xuewu saw his father frowning, he interrupted, "Have you soaked the seafood I brought back? Why don't you eat it at lunch tomorrow?"
After hearing Li Xuewu ask this question, the couple stopped arguing.
Liu Yin nodded and said, "It's soaked, and I've melted the meat."
Li Shun was scratched on the face by Li Shu, and his eyes widened in pain.
But when he saw that Li Shu was frightened by him and was about to cry with his mouth shut, he quickly put on a smile again.
He asked Li Xuewudao, "Have you told Gu Ning?"
Li Xuewu nodded and said, "I went out that evening to pick her up from get off work. I told her on the way that I would go to my godmother and teacher's house tomorrow and then pick her up."
“Go early”
"Hey, I got it"
Seeing Li Xuewu agree, Li Shun looked at his son and said, "Let's rest in the backyard. It's been a tiring day."
"Why"
Li Xuewu agreed with a smile, waved to his daughter, kissed her, and went out to the backyard.
