Chapter 457: Eat well!

The two men, Da Qiangzi, had already stood up and stood staring at Li Xuewu.

Pazile, on the other hand, sat by the kang with a disdainful expression, staring at the backs of the two of them.

Wen San'er looked at Shopkeeper Zhang, his eyes focused on Li Xuewu's face, and the air was so condensed that it seemed like ice would form.

"You look down on me!"

"How dare you!"

Shopkeeper Zhang looked at Li Xuewu and his expression did not change, but he said in a condescending manner: "It's the rules of the world."

"Whose rules?"

Li Xuewu blew the tea cup and said: "My rules are the rules."

Seeing Li Xuewu drinking tea domineeringly, shopkeeper Zhang took out a dagger from his arms and slapped it on the kang table, pushing the handle forward towards Li Xuewu.

"You are Daozu"

"hehe"

Li Xuewu looked at the dagger on the table, chuckled and said, "I don't recognize this."

"Then what do you recognize? Give us a clue."

"I recognize people"

Li Xuewu raised his head slightly and looked at the opposite side. His snake-like and tiger-like eyes made the hair grow on Shopkeeper Zhang's back.

"You have such a big scene?"

"It's none of your business"

General Li Xuewu put the teacup in his hand on the Kang table, and said with drooped eyelids: "I will prepare a banquet as big as the table."

"Can I have enough to eat?"

"Hahahahaha!"

Li Xuewu laughed like a lunatic at this moment, turned to look at Wen San'er and asked: "Uncle San, are you hungry?"

"I'm hungry!"

Wen San'er's serious face suddenly revealed a smile, and she raised her eyebrows and complained: "Your third aunt took care of the child at night and didn't even cook for me. She's starving to death!"

"Sister Yu!"

"exist!"

When Yu Li saw Li Xuewu shouting with a smile, she responded abruptly.

"The meal is ready!"

"Morning! Four dishes!"

"The wine is warm!"

"Fifty-two-proof sorghum wine!"

The two of them sang and harmonized, which confused everyone in the room. Shopkeeper Zhang and the three of them could not see the door from where they were. When they heard the woman's echo, they felt their hearts tremble.

Li Xuewu stretched his sleeves, looked at shopkeeper Zhang and said: "The guests are coming from afar, and we will entertain them with good wine and good food."

"Okay!"

Yu Li glanced at Delia and others who were standing in the kitchen, and then brought a platter of braised food to the table.

Shopkeeper Zhang looked at the woman entering the room and guessed that this was someone who was cooperating with the boss opposite.

Li Xuewu watched Yu Li put down the dishes and turned around to leave. He stretched out his hand to turn the dagger on the table and pushed the handle back forward.

"I don't care about this here"

Shopkeeper Zhang looked at Li Xuewu but did not pick up the dagger.

Li Xuewu ignored his expression, took his hand back, and pressed it on the pile of gold bars under the watchful eyes of the people in the room.

"I have plenty of this"

Li Xuewu smiled and once again pushed the pile of gold back under the strange gaze of shopkeeper Zhang.

"Here I am, eating and drinking is good, and I don't care about this."

Shopkeeper Zhang didn't even look at the knife and gold on the table. He stared into Li Xuewu's eyes and asked slowly: "What about my brother?"

"Third uncle!"

Li Xuewu turned to look at Wen San'er and said with a smile: "Sincere cooperation, we have a great fate, why don't you say hello?"

Only now did Wen San'er smile and look at Da Qiangzi and Da Chun'er who were standing on the ground, cupping their fists and greeting them: "Brother Da Chun'er, brother Da Qiangzi, farewell to Steel City, everything is fine."

Da Qiangzi looked at Wen San'er, then at Li Xuewu, and finally at the shopkeeper.

He is the boss of shopkeeper Zhang, so he is naturally the boss of shopkeeper Zhang.

He is a horse, but the person next to him is a donkey.

"What the hell are you talking about!"

Da Chun'er rolled up her arms and sleeves and walked over, stepped on the kang, crossed her legs and walked to their shopkeeper's side.

He looked at Wen Saner and kept complaining: "You are so good. You got on the train and ran away, leaving us behind. We are still there, stupid wives, waiting for the man! Let's run..."

"Da Chun'er!"

When Da Qiangzi saw that this stupid roe deer really dared to get on the kang and behaved badly, he quickly stopped him.

Da Chun'er, on the other hand, glanced at the shopkeeper and saw that the shopkeeper didn't stop him at this moment, so he regarded Da Qiangzi as a stupid Qiang who Si Liu'er didn't understand.

"Thanks to our great fortune, we got to JMS and went back from Daqing, otherwise we would have confessed!"

"Hehehe"

Li Xuewu looked at Da Chun'er and said to shopkeeper Zhang: "Brother Da Chun'er still has such a temperament, and he doesn't seem to care much about the poor food here."

Shopkeeper Zhang looked at Da Chun'er with a smile, as if he didn't care about Li Xuewu's words.

Da Chun'er's eyes widened even more as she watched Xilin and Delia bring the fish and meat.

The food here is good, and the girls here are also good-looking.

“Not bad, not bad!”

Da Chun'er looked at Xilin's face and didn't know whether she meant that the food was good or the person was good.

Xilin and the other two ignored him, served the food and went out.

The last dish was brought by Yu Li, chicken stewed with mushrooms, and the wine was brought by Quan Yongcheng, the fourth of the Thirteen Taibos.

Following Li Xuewu's instructions, wine glasses were placed in front of everyone and filled with wine.

Even Daqiangzi, who had been standing on the ground, had a drink prepared at the empty seat.

"How about it?"

Li Xuewu looked at shopkeeper Zhang with a smile, then looked at Da Qiangzi standing on the ground and asked, "Aren't you hungry?"

Da Qiangzi looked at Li Xuewu and didn't reply, but glared at Da Chun'er who turned back to look at him.

Da Chun'er looked at Shaqiang and waved: "Why are you staring at me? You just said you were hungry when you got off the train. Come on!"

Da Qiangzi stared at Dachun fiercely and cursed silently.

Da Chun'er also saw that Da Qiangzi was scolding him, but he didn't care. He was stupid and strong, so there was no point in arguing with a fool.

"Come here, get on the kang and eat quickly!"

"Hehehe"

Li Xuewu and Wen San'er laughed when they saw Da Chun'er and Da Qiangzi winking.

"Come on, it's hard to refuse hospitality. Guests do as they please."

Shopkeeper Zhang turned his head, looked at Da Qiangzi and said with a smile: "My boss wants to treat us to dinner, so please give me some face."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Da Qiangzi nodded, took off his shoes and got on the kang, sitting next to Da Chun'er.

"That's right~"

Li Xuewu smiled, grabbed the bowl on the table, placed it in front of Da Qiangzi, and said: "Pick up the bowl and eat well, you have to listen to the advice."

Da Qiangzi looked at Li Xuewu and didn't say anything, but he still had that unruly look on his face.

Da Chun'er placed the wine glass in front of him, but received a threatening look.

I'm used to it and don't care.

Da Chun'er moved his bowls and chopsticks with a smile, and looked at Li Xuewu and the others, meaning he didn't start eating yet?

Shopkeeper Zhang looked at Yu Li who was standing on the ground and said, "You can smell the sauce. Sister, do you have any green onions or something? Bring me a bowl of sauce."

"This...that's all for us to eat ourselves, it's too casual..."

Yu Li said, but she looked at Li Xuewu, meaning whether to go up or not.

But Li Xuewu didn't care. He had big fish and meat, green onions and soy sauce, and even more knives and guns.

"It's not in the way, just like this."

Shopkeeper Zhang looked at Li Xuewu and said, "It's hard to leave my hometown, and it's hard to leave the taste of my hometown. I just like to eat this."

“Take what you have”

Li Xuewu turned to look at Yu Li and said: "Shopkeeper Zhang is one of his own and will not pick on our gifts."

"good!"

Yu Li glanced at shopkeeper Zhang, turned around and went out.

Li Xuewu picked up his wine glass and said to shopkeeper Zhang: "My name is Li Xuewu. I used to hide my name for the convenience of walking."

"hehe"

Wen San'er picked up the wine glass and said with a smile: "My name is Wen Hanze. It's also for the convenience of walking."

“It’s very convenient for both of you!”

Shopkeeper Zhang knew that he would either eat or leave the food on today's table, and he would either drink or pour the wine.

After eating food and drinking wine, you will no longer be yourself.

If you don't eat this food, don't drink this wine, you're on your own, and the lunatics in Steel City have to deal with it on their own.

If he could do it, why go to the border to ask for help?

"My name is Zhang Wanhe, my real name and surname"

When Da Chun'er saw the shopkeeper holding up the wine glass, he also joked: "My name is Hu Haichun, Da Chun'er is my nickname."

"Shut up, you!"

Da Qiangzi glared at him and cursed in a low voice: "I asked you? What's wrong with you?"

"Ask me or not, my name is Hu Haichun too!"

Da Chun'er smiled nonchalantly, pointed at Da Qiangzi and introduced to everyone: "Haha, his name is Zhou Ziqiang, Da Qiangzi is his nickname."

"Hehehe"

Li Xuewu looked at the two people, chuckled and held up the wine glass and sent it forward.

"Then wish us a good meal!"

"Dry!"

What Li Xuewu said was interesting, and these people all listened to him seriously, and drank while holding their glasses of wine.

At this moment, Yu Li came in with fried sauce and a plate of mustard vegetables. She put them on the table and said, "They are dried at home. You can try them."

"well"

Shopkeeper Zhang waved his hand and said: "This is what I like, thank you sister."

While talking and laughing, he stretched out his chopsticks and picked up a piece of dried cabbage to dip into the sauce.

Li Xuewu stretched out his hand and pushed the dish forward, signaling Da Chun'er and Da Qiangzi to eat it.

Da Chun'er was very familiar with it. He thanked Li Xuewu, stretched out his chopsticks and started to eat the fatty meat slices, his mouth was full of oil after eating.

Da Qiangzi curled his lips and moved his butt in disgust.

Stay away and save yourself a lot of gas.

After picking up the rice bowl, we couldn't talk about things anymore. Shopkeeper Zhang threw the gold and dagger on the table behind him casually, picked up the wine glass and greeted Li Xuewu in return.

"To my boss!"

"To the shopkeeper!"

Li Xuewu took the wine glass and replied, glancing at Wen San'er.

Wen San'er held the wine glass and said with a smile: "We have enough food and clothing!"

"Hahaha~"

Li Xuewu and Wen San'er basically didn't eat the four dishes, plus the pickles requested by shopkeeper Zhang, and they were all wiped out by these three foreigners.

Don't look at Wen San'er's statement that he didn't eat at home. In fact, it was just nonsense. What he was talking about at that time was not about eating.

Now that they were full, Li Xuewu glanced at Yu Li and others who were waiting at the door, and the three of them came to clear away the dishes.

“My boss has a comfortable life”

Zhang Wanhe looked enviously at the three women busy on the ground, and that was not all he envied.

"It's all luck"

Li Xuewu smiled and said: "I still envy the shopkeeper for being free and at ease outside the customs~"

“Can’t catch up”

Zhang Wanhe waved his hand and said: "It's so far behind, I don't dare to raise a tenth."

After they had eaten, Dachun and Daqiangzi got off the kang and sat by the kang with Pazile.

The two of them were still drinking the newly brewed tea when they saw a strong man who looked like a blind bear entering the room.

Good guy, the three of them were stunned when they saw Ge Lin for the first time.

This...the hell did this come from?

The frontier man sitting by the kang over there was not a good guy. Now he saw a guy with a bigger build.

Seeing the stranger, Ge Lin hesitated for a moment, but was pushed by Xilin behind him and walked in.

Seeing the three strangers looking at him, he habitually ignored these curious glances, walked to the other side of Pazile and sat down quietly.

He also just came back from the West Courtyard, and his grandfather told him that the longevity materials need to be painted again.

Ge Lin is obedient, and very obedient.

Whatever grandpa said, he had to do it, and gradually he discovered his clever side.

In fact, it’s not a matter of ingenuity, it’s just a single-mindedness and focus on doing things.

Li Xuewu saw the surprise of shopkeeper Zhang and the other three, and continued without caring: "I think life outside the customs is better than inside the customs."

As he spoke, he raised his head and looked at shopkeeper Zhang who turned to look at him and said: "The land is vast and the resources are abundant, so we can't use them all."

“It’s all fought for by life.”

Shopkeeper Zhang did not object to Li Xuewu's words, but he also revealed the actual situation of agricultural reclamation in Northeast China.

"You can have a good life only if you work hard. Why don't you just wait for death if you don't work hard?"

Li Xuewu refilled the cup of shopkeeper Zhang opposite, and then refilled Wen San'er's cup.

"The stick beats the roe deer and the gourd scoops out the fish, and the pheasant flies into the big pot."

"Who doesn't know how good our hometown is?"

Shopkeeper Zhang lit his pipe, squinted his eyes and said, "But you only see the wealth in the city, but you don't see the difficulties below."

“all the same”

Li Xuewu took out his cigarettes and offered them to Wen San'er first, then took one in his mouth and threw the rest to Da Qiangzi who was looking over here.

Da Qiangzi was also startled by Li Xuewu's abrupt actions and hurriedly reached out to take it.

But when he came to his senses and took a look, he saw that it was a box of large front doors.

Li Xuewu looked at the stunned Da Qiangzi and smiled, and continued: "I have a mountain in the north of the capital. If I have time tomorrow, I will ask my subordinates to take you to see it."

"oh!"

Shopkeeper Zhang's eyes narrowed. He didn't quite believe Li Xuewu's words. When was this? Shit Mountain.

Nowadays, the whole country is playing a game of chess. Where can I find my own things?

To talk about mountains, they must be his base.

He had traveled extensively in Ji Province and was used to walking in deep mountains and old forests, so he dared to say that he had some strength.

The old families in the mountains are basically just three or five families, and none of them have any spirit that they can pass on.

Every month, I exchange things grown, beaten, and dried in the mountains with travelers like Shopkeeper Zhang, and my life is very simple.

When Li Xuewu talks about mountains, it goes to the heart of shopkeeper Zhang.

I have never seen Li Xuewu's strength, and I always feel uneasy.

Although Yu Min's train of things was missing and lying around, it didn't explain how big Li Xuewu's table was.

Of course Li Xuewu saw Zhang Wanhe's suspicion, but he didn't explain it. He would just go and have a look.

"The shopkeeper always eats local products? Have you ever thought about trying seafood?"

"My boss?"

Zhang Wanhe paused while holding the pipe and asked, "I don't quite understand what you mean. Is this a seafood product?"

"Haha, that's just a comment."

Li Xuewu chuckled and said: "Grassland products and border products are also possible."

Zhang Wanhe took two puffs on his cigarette pot and looked at Li Xuewu with squinted eyes. He didn't think Li Xuewu was talking nonsense to him here.

"Hadron"

“The shopkeeper’s”

Seeing the shopkeeper's support, Da Qiangzi quickly stood up and responded.

The shopkeeper didn't even look at him and ordered: "Take Da Chun'er to get close to some of the men in Guanli."

"The shopkeeper..."

Da Qiangzi looked at the shopkeeper and then at Li Xuewu who was sitting on the kang.

He wasn't hesitant about anything else, he just felt that Li Xuewu was dangerous, very dangerous.

"Go ahead"

Li Xuewu looked at Da Qiangzi with a smile and said something, and then waved his hand to Pazile.

Pazile stood up, patted Ge Lin on the shoulder, and took the lead to go out first.

When Da Qiangzi saw that the shopkeeper was silent, he hesitated for a moment with Da Chun'er and then left the house.

Yu Li, who was standing at the door, went out, closed the door, and followed them to the east room.

Only Li Xuewu, Wen San'er and Zhang Wanhe are left in the West Room.

"owner"

Zhang Wanhe put down the pipe and pot in his hand, looked at Li Xuewu and said, "I, Lao Zhang, are a real person. I can't hold back what I want to say, so I just want to say it."

Li Xuewu nodded and said: "But it doesn't matter."

"Then let me talk about me and my bitter brothers."

Zhang Wanhe put his elbows on his legs and looked at Li Xuewu and said seriously: "I am a poor boy who came down from the mountains. I used to herd pigs for the landlord's house."

As soon as he started speaking, he started talking. He only drank tea once or twice in the middle, and he didn't pause for the rest of the time.

"Now I have more than thirty brothers in my hand pointing at me for living, and even more on the mountain pointing at me."

Zhang Wanhe looked at Li Xuewu and said, "I just want to know if my boss's family fortune is enough to support as many as me."

"Third Uncle"

Li Xuewu did not directly reply to Zhang Wanhe's words, but looked at Wen San'er who was sitting aside.

Of course Wen Saner knew what Li Xuewu meant. He looked at Zhang Wanhe with a smile and said, "I am his manager. We are colleagues. I was also called the shopkeeper earlier."

First, he explained his identity with Li Xuewu, and then smiled at Zhang Wanhe, who was looking at him: "The family business I know is just your dozens of people and a few guns, haha~"

He whetted Zhang Wanhe's appetite and chuckled disdainfully at the end before giving the answer.

"If you eat it hard, it will kill you!"

Zhang Wanhe didn't care about Wen San'er's attitude, he heard the meaning of Wen San'er's words.

“The shopkeeper’s”

Li Xuewu looked at Zhang Wanhe and said: "I won't go into details. Let Biaozi and Sanjiu take you around tomorrow. You can play for a few more days. I won't be busy with things outside the customs."

"I don't care"

Zhang Wanhe squinted his eyes and looked at Li Xuewu and said: "As long as the boss has a charter, the account book should be handed over, and the big seal should be handed over."

"Hehehehe"

Li Xuewu looked at Wen San'er and then said to Zhang Wanhe: "If the charter is not in the charter, let's wait and see. I still have a foreign debt in Steel City that has been confiscated. Let's talk about it after it is settled."

"Listen to you"

Zhang Wanhe's eyes have never left Li Xuewu. The Steel City matter is fundamental.

This incident was the biggest bitter consequence of the backlash caused by his snake swallowing the elephant.

He knew clearly that Li Xuewu was not easy to make money, but he was still blinded by the benefits.

When beef and mutton slowly appeared on the black market in Ji Province, he was already pushed to the cliff by Li Xuewu.

Behind you is a crazy dog, and in front is a single-plank bridge held by Li Xuewu. How to get there?

He is now the salted fish on the chopping board. Whatever Li Xuewu says, he has to be.

"Third uncle, you don't have to stay in Jicheng for a long time, right?"

Li Xuewu took the initiative to change the topic and began to talk about his experiences in Jicheng and his impressions of Jicheng.

Wen San'er sat aside and made jokes, while Zhang Wanhe followed Li Xuewu's topic and talked about the local customs and customs.

The atmosphere in the west room is getting better, but the atmosphere in the east room is freezing.

Da Qiangzi and Da Chun'er were sitting by the kang, looking at the dozen or so people sitting on the floor reading, they felt that they were redundant.

Is this the dragon's pond and tiger's den that the shopkeeper said?

Shouldn't there be dozens of big men standing on both sides, lighting braziers or torches in the back, and a Taishi chair in the middle, with a white tiger skin with beard and tail spread on it?

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! What is this thing called now?

There is no shortage of big men here, but what the hell is a big man doing holding a book?

Are all the people in the world of martial arts like this nowadays?

Are you starting to fight for culture?

Da Chun'er is a careless person. When he sees people reading books, he is also the one who feels pain when people poop.

Then I went to look at the books on the bookshelf, picked out a book called "Jin Ping Mei" and read it with interest.

This book is Wen San'er's collection and has always been placed on the desk in the west room.

In the past few days, Xilin and the others have been asked to take over the work of cleaning the house, so when they saw the book, they thought it was from the bookshelf and put it back casually.

It's a good thing now, Da Chun'er got a good deal.

As if wearing a monkey's head, he imitated others and sat upright on the desk, holding a book with "The Scholars" written on the cover and smiling evilly at the corner of his mouth.

Some of the dozen or so people reading this book have seen this book, some have not.

But now they all looked at Da Chun'er, and even for this "love of learning", they had to take a high look.

Da Qiangzi, on the other hand, looked at Da Chun'er with hatred, this bastard must be an undercover agent!

------------------

Li Xuewu didn't stay here much. He had to get up early tomorrow morning. He got up early this morning and felt sleepy at noon.

Tonight, Lao Biaozi and others will take turns to keep vigil, and the vacant position here is suitable for Zhang Wanhe and three others.

I called Shazhu and the others who were waiting in the east room to greet the guests, and then went to the backyard.

The moon was already high now, but not very bright. The lights in the courtyard were still on, but no one was walking around in the courtyard.

Li Xuewu looked at the time, it was already ten o'clock.

"Who are those people?"

Yu Li, who was catching up, asked casually and took advantage of Li Xuewu's turn to follow him.

"outside the customs"

Li Xuewu turned around, took a look, and answered casually.

He knew that Yu Li didn't really want to know where these people came from, nor did she want to know what they were here for. She just came out as a pretext.

"You should go to bed early, you have to get up early tomorrow morning."

After entering the middle courtyard, Li Xuewu saw that the lights in the main room were still on and thought about asking Yu Li to go back to sleep.

But Yu Li followed Li Xuewu to the backyard.

"I'll go to bed after cleaning up for you."

Little did she know that the rain was waiting for her on purpose. She went home late yesterday, and her eyes were almost electric.

After entering the room, Li Xuewu turned on the light and asked Yu Li to find clothes for him to change while he was washing.

"Remember, when you get out of the cemetery tomorrow, go to work and don't go home."

Yu Li warned Li Xuewu, as if she had something to say.

Li Xuewu bit his toothbrush and hummed. His father also told him this.

Yu Li said to herself: "I'll ask them tomorrow, too. When I get back, I'll go straight out to collect the rags."

She grew up in the village, so of course she was exposed to many such sayings.

Although he knew that most people were superstitious, Li Xuewu did not refute it.

This is metaphysics, and he doesn't understand it, so he can't argue with Yu Li on this.

"I got the fabric back."

Li Xuewu pointed to the cabinet in the back room and said, "I put it there for you. If you need it, take it yourself."

Yu Li didn't see when Li Xuewu got it back, but she thought maybe he brought it in when he came back from get off work.

"I know, I'll tell her tomorrow morning."

When Li Xuewu was waiting on him to get on the kang, he didn't stay much longer. He turned off the lights in the back room and the living room, changed his shoes, and went out of the entrance hall.

Perhaps Li Xuewu's rank is getting higher and higher, and the position is no longer within his reach, and the person opposite has no monitoring eyes recently.

Yu Li walked through the verandah and the moon door and returned to the main room. As soon as she entered the room, she saw He Yuyu sitting on the bed wearing a cotton padded jacket and holding a book, waiting for her.

"I've been studying so hard lately that I don't even sleep."

Yu Li asked Yu Yu casually while washing her own feet.

Seeing that Yu Li was not looking at him, Yu Yu raised his eyebrows and said, "It's okay, it's the materials from the factory."

Yu Li sat on the bed with the rain on her back, soaking her feet, but curled her lips.

This little girl works in the labor union of a textile factory. She has nothing to do all day long. There is no work that requires her to stay up late. She is just messing around with herself.

“That’s really hard work.”

Yu Li put her hands on the bed, covered her body with a quilt, and said casually: "Hey, I saw that the information he compiled on his desk seems to have the name of your textile factory."

"From our factory?"

He Yuyu was looking at Yu Li's back and wondering what he was thinking when he suddenly saw Yu Li talking about the textile factory.

"It's about the security department~"

He Yuyu also guessed, saying: "It seems that a security brigade will be set up here in Dongcheng, and all factory security offices will have to undergo three-month rotations in the name of rotation training."

"Then I don't know"

Yu Li rubbed her feet and said, "I just saw a name, but I didn't see the details."

"Well, almost"

He Yuyu put the manuscript in his hand on the cabinet next to him and explained: "He is now the security cadre of the steel rolling mill and the leader of the branch, so he also has leadership authority over the security department of our factory."

.

As he spoke, he looked at Yu Li's back and asked, "Hey, Sister Yu, what do you think of me applying to be transferred to the front-line business department?"

"Are you free?"

Yu Li turned around and glanced at He Yuyu, then turned back and said: "I work in the trade union to distribute newspapers, engage in activities, and get benefits. I only go to the front line when my brain is feverish."

"I just can't stand it any longer."

Rainwater took off his clothes and put them at the foot of the bed, then lay on his back on the bed, looked at the ceiling and said: "It's just these jobs every day. I can see them all at a glance. I'm waiting for retirement every day. This life is boring."

“When you’re bored, find someone else.”

Yu Li said thoughtfully: "When you find a partner, you will be busy, and you won't feel like going to the business department."

“Not really looking for it”

Lying on the pillow in the rain, my eyes were a little empty and my voice was a little empty.

"My heart is a little tired and I haven't calmed down yet."

"You'll be an old girl by the time you recover!"

Yu Li wiped her feet, stepped on her shoes and poured out the foot washing water. After cleaning everything, she went to bed and turned off the light.

"A woman has a few good years, but once she turns into a yellow-faced woman, no one will want her anymore."

Yu Li huddled under the quilt and lay down level with Yuyu. She was persuading Yuyu and thinking about herself.

Listening to Yu Li's words, Yu Yu thought about herself and Yu Li.

"Marriage is just that."

Rain tightened the quilt, turned around and lay with his back to Yu Li.

“I used to look forward to getting married, but now that I think about it, I don’t seem to think so anymore.”

He said as if he was referring to something: "It's hard to find someone you like, and it's also hard to find a suitable one. In the end, if you take a gamble, you may have to live on your own."

Yu Li turned her head slightly and looked at the rain. What were she talking about?

The two of them stopped talking and went to sleep with their own thoughts.

------------------

When Li Xuewu came back, he felt dizzy looking at the moon and could not see the stars around him.

When he came out after being woken up by Yu Li, the sky was even darker.

Not to mention this, the temperature seemed to have dropped and the wind was blowing.

After tightening his military coat, Li Xuewu led Yu Li forward.

When I arrived in the middle courtyard, I saw the lights in the grandpa's house were on, and the lights in Jia's house opposite were also on.

The wind was blowing hard, and Li Xuewu didn't think much about it. He grabbed his coat and walked forward.

When we arrived in the front yard, the lights in my living room were on, and the lights in the third uncle's house across the way were also on.

What happened today?

Could it be that Yu Li called her late and it was already time to go to work?

I thought to myself and looked at the watch on my hand through the dim light.

No, the time is right.

Before he could figure it out, his father came out of the house.

"dad"

"Um"

Li Shun complied, looked at his son, said nothing, and prepared to go to the reverse room.

At this moment, the door opposite opened, and it was the third uncle who came out of the room with his clothes buttoned up.

"Old Li"

As he spoke, he picked up a few pieces of paper money from the broken cabinet in the corner.

"His third uncle"

The two met and said hello.

The third uncle looked at Li Xuewu and Yu Li, who saw him coming out and entering the Chuihua Gate first.

"No more tables?"

"Um"

Li Xuewu also saw what the third uncle meant. He wanted to attend the Shen family's funeral.

There is no relationship or relationship, why is this god thinking about this?

"Guodong said, keep everything simple, don't entertain, don't accept elements."

"Oh~"

The third uncle responded and said: "Then let's have breakfast. Is it enough?"

"Yes, Guodong is grateful that you can come."

Li Xuewu wouldn't let him go at this time, but he didn't say he was going out to chase people away for nothing.

As they were talking here, the first uncle and Qin Huairu walked out of the central courtyard.

"It just so happens that we haven't had breakfast yet. Bring us some."

The old man held a few pieces of paper under his arm and said something to Li Xuewu as he walked.

Li Xuewu looked at the first uncle, then at Qin Huairu, and said politely: "Thank you for thinking about me."

The first uncle nodded, passed Li Xuewu, and went to the back room with Li Shun and the third uncle.

Li Xuewu thought that the third uncle could come because it might have something to do with Lao Biaozi and his friends rescuing Yan Jiefang.

Needless to say, Qin Huairu, it was a surprise that this old man came.

This uncle basically doesn't go into other people's homes to do business, because his family has nothing to do.

Li Xuewu and Qin Huairu were about to talk, but they saw Yu Yu coming out of the main room of the middle courtyard, yawning.

"You guys got up early"

"You haven't woken up yet?"

Li Xuewu looked at the rain blurring his face and said hello.

Yu Yu rubbed his face and replied: "I've slept enough, I just got up early."

At this moment Li Xuecai also came out of the house, followed by his mother Liu Yin.

"Let your brother go too, he is considered a brother."

Seeing his mother's instructions, Li Xuewu reached out and patted his third brother on the shoulder, signaling him to go to the dining room for dinner.

But she followed her mother and said, "Go back and lie down for a while."

“I don’t have much time to lie down, and I’m going to be on fire as soon as I look at it.”

Liu Yin looked at her son and warned, "Be careful and eat more hot breakfast."

"knew"

At this moment, Qin Huairu and Yuyu had followed Li Xuecai to the reverse room.

After Li Xuewu talked to his mother, he also walked to the outer courtyard.

At this time, both the east and west rooms were bustling with activity. There were so many people that I couldn't even hear a few words spoken by each person.

Thirty or forty people were crowded into the house, but even though the house on the opposite side had an east and west room, it was spacious, otherwise it wouldn't be able to accommodate so many people.

Everyone who could fit a table on the kang was placed, and those who didn't have a seat had their rice bowls and stood at the table to eat.

At this time, people weren’t so particular about things. They were all thinking about things, and everyone was talking about stuffing food into their mouths.

Thanks to Yu Li, they woke up early and cooked a large iron pot of rice porridge for fear of not having enough food.

Then there is the Wowotou. Counting the leftovers from yesterday and the newly steamed ones this morning, several large baskets are gone.

Perhaps because there were so many people, they ate so much that they even ate the pickles and melon seeds cut into small pieces and the cabbage that Yu Li mixed with them.

When everyone was full, Wen San'er and Er Ye organized the meal, and then they all went to the west courtyard and stood waiting.

Two cars, one for Pazile and one for Gelin, went to Shen's house first.

The rest of the people, led by the second master and grandpa, walked to Shen's house.

The sky was already gray and bright at this moment, and those who got up early were shocked to see so many people walking together.

Especially when it comes to things like this, everyone walks in the queue without saying a word and speaks as quietly as possible, so it feels very oppressive.

Fortunately, they all recognized the old neighbors walking in front, especially the Li family and his son. Only then did they think of what happened to the Shen family when they met yesterday.

These people stood at the door, watching from the side of the road, thinking, there is no one in the Shen family, there are only half a young man left, how can they get this face?

Hey! Not only do they think about it, but Shen Guodong’s neighbors who live in that courtyard also think about it.

I hid away last night and didn't see it. This morning I got up to light a fire and went to the toilet, but I saw the big coffin parked at the gate.

Okay, who is so dignified now that he can still use this kind of coffin?

Furthermore, there were two cars parked at the door. It looked like they were here to help. The cars were filled with firecrackers and paper money.

I haven't heard that the Shen family has become rich, isn't it a shabby settlement that collects rags?

One by one, these neighbors were called out and questioned by the daughter-in-law who got up early.

These gentlemen haven't heard that that brat from the Shen family is crazy.

Where did this come from?

It’s not like the people in the courtyard didn’t expect these people to come into the courtyard over the past two days.

However, it was mostly at night, and no one could see the gangster identity of someone who disliked these people.

But it was strange today. The neighbors in the courtyard all stood up with sleeves on their sleeves to see the strange thing.

What was even more strange was that behind me, I saw a bunch of people rushing into the courtyard.

Under the arrangements of the second master, from eldest to youngest, from male to female, dozens of people kowtowed and put paper money in turn.

There are some people you know and some you don't know.

There were also workers from the steel rolling mill in the courtyard, and now I saw the deputy director of the Security Department inside.

It was also a coincidence that Li Xuewu came either in the morning or at night, and no one who knew him saw him.

Now that we saw him, the discussion started to spread.

Well, asking about their relationship is a trivial matter for Li Xuewumeng brothers, no wonder they have such great reputation.

Before I finished kowtowing, I saw two more people squeezing in from outside.

But it was none other than Shen Fang and Duan Youting.

Both of them were wearing uniforms, and they stood out in the crowd.

Shen Fang took the lead and bowed to the old lady first, then supported Shen Guodong who returned the gift and comforted her with a few words.

They are also familiar with Shen Guodong, having introduced them to Wen San'er last time she got married.

No need to ask at this moment, it was still Li Xuewu. The neighbors watching outside looked eagerly at Shen Fang, who was standing with Li Xuewu and talking to Shen Guodong.

They may not know Li Xuewu, but they are too familiar with these two.

Even if you don’t know the person, you still have to be familiar with the clothes.

The broken head continued to kowtow, and at the end of the kowtow, another passage was opened outside.

This time the neighbors got to know each other, Director Wang and Director Liu from the street.

Good guy, this little brat from the Shen family is so talented that he can recruit this kind of leader for nothing.

Seeing the two directors bowing and comforting Shen Guodong, he wanted to squeeze in and use his identity as a neighbor to bow and unite the relationship.

But while he was still going in, the two directors turned around and left with the two directors.

This is not a lack of face, this is a rule.

The public servants have gone through the motions and cannot stay idle.

There are many things here that are not advocated now, and it is never easy to do them in person.

Now that Li Xuewu is sending his godmother and others away, he understands their feelings.

Li Xuewu had just sent his godmother away when he saw Ding Wanqiu arriving with his apprentice nephew Zhou Changli.

He heard what his apprentice nephew said about Shen Guodong, so he rushed to arrive today as a favor to Li Xuewu.

This thing sounds mysterious, but it is real.

As long as he comes, Li Xuewu will be grateful.

At this moment, Li Xuewu greeted them, thanked them, and called his second child to lead them into the courtyard. He stood at the door waiting for people to get off the car.

"Why didn't you tell me?"
