Chapter 77: Intercepting Hu from the public house
The Li family has become accustomed to Li Long going out every day, and they still cook mutton soup at night.
"Qiangqiang, why haven't you chewed through these bones?" Liang Yuemei pointed at the bones beside Li Qiang's bowl and asked with a straight face, "Do you know this is a waste?"
"But then It's all just tendons, old and stuffy, and no meat is delicious..." Li Qiang defended a little aggrievedly.
"You won't eat after stuffing your teeth? You've only been eating meat for a few days and now you start to dislike the tendons? In the past, if you chewed some bones, you could make the dogs outside so angry that you wouldn't leave any tendons behind!"
"Okay, okay," Li Jianguo said with a smile, "Qiangqiang, remember, you can't waste food, especially meat. This is the hard work of my uncle, do you understand?"
"I understand... ..." Li Qiang picked up the bone and gnawed hard again.
Li Jianguo and Liang Yuemei looked at each other and looked at Li Long.
Yes, because of Li Long, these ten days were really like a dream.
The child started to pick out meat!
"Xiaolong, we caught more than 40 kilograms of fish today. Do you want to sell it tomorrow?"
"No." Li Long waved his hand, "Let the fish be put at home first. I have other things to do tomorrow." , If it’s done well, I’ll go sell fish again in a few days before the end of the year.”
“Daqiang has something to do at home, and he originally said he would follow you to sell fish tomorrow. ..."
"That's okay. When I return the horse later, I'll go to his house and explain it clearly." Li Long finished drinking the mutton soup and said, "Brother, I'll return the horse first and stay there for a while." Let's skin the roe deer when we get back..."
"No need for you," Li Jianguo said with a smile, "It's just a roe deer, I can do it myself."
Skinning sheep these days has given Li Jianguo confidence that he is just a roe deer.
Li Long smiled, didn't say much, got dressed and went out.
After driving the carriage to the horse number, Li Long said something to Lao Luo, and then went to the captain's house.
Xu Chengjun saw Li Long coming in and asked with a smile:
"Xiaolong, do you still want to rent a carriage?"
"Well, we may need to rent it for several days later, so come here and let me rent it for five days first." Li Long took out eight yuan and put it on the table, "Captain, put the money here, I'm leaving first."< br>
"Okay." Xu Chengjun waved his hand, "You are busy with your business."
During this period, Li Long had to pay twenty or thirty yuan to the team just to rent the carriage, and Xu Chengjun was all I'm a little envious of this guy.
Is selling fish really so profitable? Sewing machines and bicycles are not cheap!
However, the Li family has not heard of any big purchases so far. Is it because they don’t have enough money?
Li Long went to Tao Daqiang's house again and shouted in the yard.
Tao Daqiang hurriedly came out of the house.
"Daqiang, I have to go to the county to do business tomorrow. I won't sell fish for now. You should go catch fish with my brother when you are free. If my brother is not free, you can catch the fish yourself and freeze the fish first. "Let's go sell it together in a few days."
"Okay." Tao Daqiang was a little disappointed. He originally wanted to sell fish tomorrow to get some money and prepare some new year goods for his family.
"Take these ten dollars first." Li Long took out ten dollars, "This money counts as fishing for these two days, but if I don't catch enough fish, I will need more when I sell fish later. Money was deducted.”
Although he had clearly planned to settle accounts with Tao Daqiang based on the employment relationship, Li Long knew that he still had to grasp the favor. Now Tao Daqiang is the only one in the team who can work with him in a down-to-earth manner. He doesn't want to let such a good employee go.
"Okay, Brother Long, look at me." Tao Daqiang promised excitedly.
"Okay, I'll go back first, it's too cold outside."
The Spring Festival is less than ten days away, and the outdoor temperature is getting lower and lower.
Li Long walked back and passed by the haystack outside Lao Yang's courtyard. He saw two black figures leaning in the haystack and whispering there. He got the idea of playing a prank and walked over quietly. When he came forward, he coughed suddenly and deliberately.
The two black figures suddenly separated and jumped to both sides as if they were exploded by firecrackers.
What surprised Li Long was that one of the two people was Wu Shufen and the other was Gu Ermao!
This is so embarrassing!
Li Long reacted quickly, pretending that nothing was wrong, and walked quickly past the two people. Wu Shufen also recognized Li Long at this time, and her face immediately burned.
Gu Ermao came back to his senses, stretched out his hand to hug Wu Shufen's waist, and whispered:
"Leave him alone, this guy is jealous, let's continue..."
He also saw that the two of them were It was Li Long who was shocked. Although he was filled with hatred, he didn't think he had the ability to fight wolves, and he didn't dare to cause trouble to Li Long. He just wanted to continue with Wu Shufen.
"I'm going home." Wu Shufen patted the hay off her body and said lightly, "You should go back too."
With that said, she strode home without looking back. Walking, even trotting as I walked.
Wu Shuhua was very upset at the moment. Why did she sit on the haystack with Gu Ermao under his sweet words? She even let him hug her waist!
The most important thing is that Li Long actually saw it!
It's so embarrassing, I don't know if he will tell it...
Gu Ermao looked at Wu Shufen's back, feeling a little annoyed, but also a little hopeful.
This time I hugged my waist, will it be next time... the driver’s apprentice status will be more useful?
Early the next morning, Li Long drove his carriage to the county.
First go to Mr. Ma - the one who wants to sell the house. His name is Ma Mengqi and his son Ma Xuelong. The old man is sixty-one years old and in good health.
Hearing the knock on the door, Ma Mengqi came over to open the door. When he saw Li Long, he smiled and said:
"Xiao Li, you are here. I thought you were not coming."
"Then why don't you come? I'm worried that Mr. Ma, you will regret not selling."
"That won't happen." Ma Mengqi waved his hands repeatedly:
"At my age, I can't tell lies. I will nail it with every spit."
"Okay, let's do it now..."
“Let’s go and go through the formalities.”
The person from the street office handed over the procedures to two people, with dark faces the whole time.
Li Long can also understand. After all, the duck will fly away immediately, and no one will feel better.
"Xiao Li, please wait two days, I'll clean up here and hand over the apartment to you the day after tomorrow?"
"Of course it's no problem." With the procedures in hand, Li Long was naturally not worried, "It's okay, you can stay a few more days." . ”
“I don’t dare to stay longer. My son is waiting for me over there. I just packed up my things briefly and didn’t have time to move. Oh, I want to eat here when I leave. Fish, I don’t know when it will be." Ma Mengqi was still a little emotional.
"Isn't that easy? Once the house is settled over there, the transportation will become more convenient. It will only take one day by plane."
"You're still good at talking."
After paying the rent, Li Long didn't have much money left. It would be impossible to get ten more sheep. However, he still planned to go to the mountain first and talk to Harimu and Yushanjiang about the matter. If it can be done, then do it. If it can't be done, then he will continue to sell his fish.
After all, Yushanjiang and Harimu must cooperate in this matter.
