"Remember." Li Yue and Yan Yixin said in unison.
Li Heng nodded aggrievedly and waited for his parents to leave the warehouse. He collapsed and hung himself on Yan Yixin.
"Brother~sister~mother is too overbearing."
"Do you dare to tell me in front of my mother?"
Facing his sister's request to die, Li Heng hurriedly shook his head, looking like "Are you awake yet?"
"Since you don't dare, hurry up and burn the house with firewood. There are still two hours before dark, so hurry up. Otherwise, you will have to freeze at night."
"But...but I haven't had lunch yet!" Li Heng reminded with a curl of his lips.
He was hungry. Since morning, all he had in his stomach was the plate of dumplings he had eaten at home. He was so hungry that he had no energy left. How could he work?
Li Yue was used to his coquettishness and cheating, so she took out a few pieces of candy from her arms. These were given to her by her mother on the night of the 30th, and she had never eaten them.
Li Heng's face instantly heated up when he saw this.
"No, no need, sister, I can persist, I will go to work right now."
During the recent period of time when his parents had "reformed their evil ways", he had almost forgotten how strong his sister had been before. It was precisely because of his strong sister that he felt sorry for her and rushed to work everywhere, but he did not expect that now he has fallen.
Li Yue ignored his harsh words and pushed away the candy wrappers, giving each person two pieces.
"Stop grinding, hurry up and get to work, my mother's side is still short of manpower."
After saying this, he bent down and picked up two bundles of firewood, and hurriedly left the warehouse.
Li Huai can now hold on to things and walk. It is a time when she cannot live without people, so she must seize the time.
The back room next to the main house is adjacent to the back room of the main house, and the outhouse is on the mountain. There is a thin layer of frost on the wall. It can be seen that there has been no fire for a long time.
The paint on the windows is very new, it should have been painted not long ago. The furniture in the house is complete, and the kang is also very large.
I walked around and came out to prepare a fire, but I didn't expect Yan Yixin to come over with two bundles of firewood.
"Brother Yixin, did you... give this to me?"
Yan Yixin put down the firewood, nodded and said:
"The situation in the first two rooms is the same. They need to be burned more. You go to the back room and light the two kang holes, and I'll light the outer room."
"What about the iron egg?"
"You are a girl, let me help you first."
Li Heng, who was looking for someone outside the door, heard this and turned around to light the chimney in the backyard.
Yes, he is a rough boy and needs to work harder. My sister is a little girl and needs to be pampered.
The whole process was witnessed by Li Hui who went to the warehouse to get firewood. He waited until his son had gone away before he happily rushed back to the house and shared the experience with Cheng Xue.
"...You didn't see that boy Tiedan turned around and left after hearing these words, but he did it simply. It seems that his age is not in vain, he has the eyesight."
Cheng Xue had different ideas from him. Li Heng was definitely not trying to bring Li Yue and Yan Yixin together. Most likely, he just felt sorry for his sister and didn't want her to be so tired.
He took out two pieces of silver from his waist and gave them to him and said:
"You go to the street and buy some pastries, steamed buns and the like. Just make them at noon and make them in the evening."
"Then let me buy some more food. How about a fish? And some meat and suet. By the way, when we are done cleaning up, we have to invite Wang Sen and Yang Chong to come over for dinner."
Cheng Xue did a simple calculation in her mind, gave him another tael of silver, and said:
"Okay, you can buy it as you see fit. Please don't be in a hurry to eat. We'll wait for the ninth day of the Lunar New Year. After eating, you can stop and study."
"Okay." Li Hui took the money and left
The seasonings here have been bought. Li Hui is not the kind of kitchen novice. He knows all the things used for cooking.
Cheng Xue called Li Heng to the east room to look after the children, while she took a broom and rag and went to clean up next door. Don't worry about your daughter, there is Yan Yixin to help.
Put up the north and south windows, wave a broom, and do the exercises in the house.
The smoke was lingering and the dust was flying. When Li Hui returned home after shopping, he stood at the entrance of the courtyard and saw that the courtyard was filled with fog.
Suddenly the door of the yard next door opened, and an old man came out and said:
"Did you move here today?"
"Yes, uncle, the children at home are a little noisy and are causing trouble for you."
The old man waved his hand nonchalantly, "It's okay. The more children you have, the more popular you are. I heard that you talk very well. You must be a scholar."
Before Li Hui could answer——
"Dad, come back soon. Tiantian and Sidan are both hungry and anxious."
Li Heng said as he ran out and took something from his hand.
It doesn’t look like much, but it’s very heavy to carry. It must be his dad, he’s so strong.
Li Hui smiled apologetically at the old man, carried the remaining things home, and hung up the courtyard door.
In the east room, Li Huai was lying on the quilt, motionless. Li Tian was standing on the edge of the kang. When his father came back, he quickly clasped his hands and was hugged by Li Hui.
"Ta-ta-ta...ta-ta-ta..."
Li Huai raised his eyes and muttered, as if he was complaining about why he was not given food.
She was quite cute when she was little. Li Hui put down his daughter and went to the two rooms on the left and right to call his wife and daughter back.
Desserts, steamed buns, pickles, and boiled hot water make a simple meal.
Li Hui and others continued to clean up the house. Cheng Xue put the two little ones to sleep and went to the outhouse to pack the things he bought.
Let’s just say that with our allies IKEA and IKEA, you never have to worry about shopping. Not only did I buy suet, but I also bought onions, ginger, garlic, pork belly and fish.
A piece of grass carp weighs almost four kilograms. It is braised in braised sauce for the children to eat.
At the beginning of Shen Shi, Xiao Qinglin brought Bai Rui over. Li Hui opened the door and smiled when he saw him holding a food box in his hand.
"It's better to come early than to come in time. The food will be ready soon. Come inside and wait for a while."
"Is everything done?"
"The house is almost tidied up, only the finishing work is left. Barry, please come in too, we can eat together."
Barry knew that he sincerely invited him, but he was not following the rules. There was no reason to eat at the same table as his master.
"No, Master Li. I still have something to do, so I will come to pick up our father later."
As he spoke, he handed the food box over, then took it behind the courtyard door and left.
Li Hui didn't insist when he saw this. He pointed in the direction of the warehouse and said:
"You can't buy it. My wife said that they must buy it."
Xiao Qinglin curled his lips when he heard this but said nothing.
Okay, whoever you like will buy it, as long as they are hot enough these days.
"My junior brother's brother, I will take the exam with you this year. Come to my restaurant tomorrow and I will introduce you to him. He also takes Master Chen's class. There are ten of you in total. I will vouch for you and Jingyu."
From the moment he knew that he was going to take the scientific examination, Xiao Qinglin helped him arrange it step by step. First, he gave him books and gave lectures when he had time, and now he introduced him to teachers and classmates. He could cover everything and be a real noble person!
Li Hui didn't know how to express his gratitude, so he said "thank you" with a burning voice and patted him heavily on the shoulder. Xiao Qinglin grinned in pain and followed him into the house.
"Hey, Qinglin is here. The fish will be out of the pot soon. Come and sit in the room."
Li Hui put the food box on the shelf and said:
"Qinglin brought the dishes and put them on the plate later."
"Got it."
After Cheng Xue finished speaking, she opened the food box and found five dishes and one portion of steamed buns. The contents of the two food boxes were the same...
