Chapter 49: Replacing wood

"Li Huan, I want to thank you on the day when I pay the public rations. I see everything you do, but it saves us a lot of trouble."

Of course the village chief knew what Li Huan had done. The public grains of other villages were checked very tightly, even if there was even a pebble in the corn kernels. However, his village only took a brief look at it and then collected the grains.

Li Huan nodded. It was just a matter of 28 cents. He was still happy to do something good for the village. He was also from Xiangyang Village.

Shouhou had been sitting at the door of Li Huan's house for a long time. When he saw Li Huan carrying two loads of grain, Li's mother and Li Le also had grain in their hands, so he quickly stepped forward to help.

"Skinny Monkey is here, come in quickly."

The door of the Li family was always open. The family was very poor and had nothing to steal, but Skinny Monkey still sat at the gate and did not enter without permission.

"Auntie, I'm here to help. I'll sleep here at night."

"Sure, but I can only sleep in the living room. Now Li Huan is also sleeping in the living room. Just wait until the house over there is built."

"I understand. Look, I have brought all the bedding and bedding."

The thin monkey pointed to a roll of bedding at his feet with a smile, picked up the bedding and followed him in. He also took out two fruit candies from his pocket and handed them to Li Le.

"Thank you, Brother Skinny Monkey."

Li Le lived a very comfortable life during this period. Not only did she eat well and sleep well every day, she also had more candies and snacks in her pocket, all of which were given to her by Cheng Qiao of course.

"Lele, come with me to the kitchen to cook."

As soon as he thought of Cheng Qiao, Cheng Qiao appeared at the door, carrying a large backpack on his back. Li Huan looked at the backpack on Cheng Qiao's back, which was almost half as tall as her, and couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.

"Daughter-in-law, I'm coming, don't be tired."

Li Huan quickly put down the carrying pole and ran to Cheng Qiao, wanting to take the basket, but Cheng Qiao was unwilling because the basket was now empty. If it wasn't covered with a piece of cloth, she would be too embarrassed to carry it out.

"Don't move, I'll go to the kitchen first."

"I'll go with you."

When Li Huan saw Cheng Qiao retreating very lightly, he knew that the basket on his back was empty, and the corners of his mouth raised. How could he forget that his wife was a little fairy from heaven who came down to earth.

He quickly followed behind. He wanted to protect his wife and tried his best not to let the secret leak out. Li Huan's operation shocked Shouhou, Li's mother and Li Le.

The three of them looked at each other, wondering if their comrade Li Huan had changed his mind, and saw how Cheng Qiao could become such a jerk.

Cheng Qiao quickly placed the basket on the kitchen floor, then put his hand in. Soon, a piece of cloth on the basket was removed. Li Huan looked at the basket full of food. Although he was mentally prepared, he saw so many things.

, and was so shocked that my heart almost jumped out of my chest.

He originally thought that Cheng Qiao would bring out some delicious food, which would be enough for the few of them to eat, but he had thought that there would be so many, and the hands reaching for the basket on his back began to tremble slightly.

"This is fifty kilograms of white flour, this is fifty kilograms of rice, fifty kilograms of cornmeal, fifty kilograms of millet, and here are ten kilograms of pork, where the fat can be boiled into lard, as well as sugar and oil.

, salt, cigarettes, liquor, you can see for yourself."

Li Huan quickly looked outside, but the thin monkeys hadn't reacted yet, so he quickly asked Cheng Qiao to take back most of the rice noodles. Your small body can carry hundreds of kilograms of grain.

Cheng Qiao's face turned red. Yes, she was too eager for success. She moved her hand again, leaving twenty kilograms of corn flour, ten kilograms of white rice and white flour, and not taking back the rest.

Li Huan nodded, but there was moisture in his eyes. If he wasn't trying to catch feudal superstitions now, he would have wanted to kneel down in front of the mountain and thank God for sending him a fairy wife.

"Wow……"

Suddenly there was a scream in his ears, which scared Li Huan so much that he almost knocked over the cornmeal. When he turned around, he saw that it was Li Le. The little girl also saw a basket of good things on her back, and she was so happy that she couldn't control herself.

Mother Li and Shouhou both ran in, looked at the things in the basket, and looked at Cheng Qiao with difficulty. They all saw that Cheng Qiao carried the basket on his back. It turns out that the little girl is so strong.

"Cheng Qiao, there are at least seventy or eighty kilograms of stuff here. The injury on your head is not healed yet. How can you carry such a heavy stuff? And when did you buy these things?"

this……

Cheng Qiao still didn't know how to answer, but Li Huan stood up and told Li's mother that she had bought these things yesterday, but she just left them at the educated youth center and didn't take them over.

Shouhou was a little confused. Brother Huan had never been to the black market, and there was no food in the house. Where did he get these things from? No matter, Brother Huan has Brother Huan's ability, otherwise why wouldn't he be Brother Monkey?

.

White smoke came out of the chimney of Li's house. The men who signed up to help Li Huan build the house quickly finished the food in their bowls and hurried to Li Huan's house.

Uncle Niu also arrived with an ox cart, which was full of logs. He usually didn't work in the fields, because being a cowherd also paid centimeters, but centimeters could only be exchanged for a year's worth of coarse food.

He is getting older, his teeth are getting worse, and it is difficult to swallow whole grains. He can only eat more refined grains, but if he wants to eat fine grains, he has to spend money to buy them.

"Uncle Niu, how do you want to change these pieces of wood? What do you want to change?"

Cheng Qiao hurriedly ran over and offered him whatever space she had.

"Girl, Uncle Niu doesn't want much, just give me eighty pounds of cornmeal."

"no."

Cheng Qiao shook his head decisively. Uncle Niu was angry. He had secretly cut these woods in the mountains over the years and had hidden them for a long time.

Although he is also a socialist thief, his only son disappeared and everyone sympathized with him, so they turned a blind eye to what he did.

"Uncle Niu, please exchange it for 100 pounds of cornmeal."

"What~"

Uncle Niu didn't seem to believe his ears. No, his ears were good. This girl was really stupid. He, an old man, couldn't bully a little girl like this.

"It's just eighty pounds of cornmeal. If it's more, I won't change it."

Cheng Qiao: "It's just a hundred pounds of cornmeal. I don't want any less."

Uncle Niu and Cheng Qiao looked at each other with big eyes. In the end, Uncle Niu felt a sense of sourness in his nose. Fortunately, the second-rate man was only a second-rate man on the surface, otherwise he would have tried his best to prevent Cheng Qiao from marrying the second-rate man.

Li Huan smiled and asked the villagers to unload the wood from the oxcart. He also took a bag full of cornmeal from the kitchen and threw it on the oxcart. Then he gave Uncle Niu a big meat bun and hurried away.

He went back.

Uncle Niu looked at the bulging cornmeal and knew in his heart that the bag contained more than one hundred kilograms. A urea bag like this, filled so full, would weigh at least one hundred and ten kilograms.
