Li Jianguo and his family drove a tractor to the county to see Gu Xiaoxia who was pregnant. This matter was quickly transferred by Mrs. Lu from the team's gossip distribution center and spread throughout the village.
In the store, Ma Jinbao did not herd sheep today, so the sheep was handed over to his son. He sat on the bench and sipped a sip of wine, put down his glass and wiped his mouth and said:
"Hey, they are all juniors and elders. They have been transferred to the Li family. The whole family will go to see the young people together - that is, they are state cadres! It's good to be an official, and I'll let mine in the future. Grandson becomes an official! ”
No one answered him.
Some people may have the same ideas as him, but they will not express it easily. No one can guarantee whether it will be heard by Li's family after it is said.
Ma Jinbao makes a living by raising sheep and does nothing else. He is like a deadbeat and doesn't care about other people's ideas at all.
But others are different. Li Long has almost mastered the economic lifeline of the team in the past two years. He really made him angry. If you say that those jobs are not given to some people or do not accept some people’s things, then the money this year Where did it come from?
Coward!
Ma Jinbao looked at these idle people in the store and showed a sense of contempt in his eyes. All the people were older than Li Long, but they were easily controlled by a young man. It was so embarrassing!
This period is considered slack time for farming. If there are diligent people, they will weed in the field. Generally, they can basically take two days to relax.
If there are some places for women to chat under the big elm tree at the entrance of the village, then this store is the center of the gossip of idle men.
A few years later, several stores were opened in the team. At first, they were also called stores, but later they were changed to convenience stores, and later they were changed to small shops.
Someone saw the business opportunity and directly sold things in his yard, set up barbecue stalls and mahjong tables, and then became prosperous.
The store department has not changed much at the moment, and rural people will respond to changes in the outside world relatively slowly. Basically, they will wait until the overall situation is settled before making changes. Now it is a trend but not stable, and the store department is still selling things. .
At most, add some home-fried flower sunflower. Sometimes these are not even sold. Just fry them and put them on the counter for free. This is also a way to attract customers.
After all, it’s because people are so popular that someone buys things.
Seeing that no one responded to his words, Ma Jinbao snorted and poured himself another glass of wine. When he was about to drink, he watched Tao Dayong walking back in the donkey cart and shouted:
"Tao Dayong, come here and have a drink!"
In the past, Tao Dayong was also a permanent member of the store drinking staff.
But he has changed a little since the end of last year.
After planting the melons this year, Tao Dayong's family was trembling, fearing that they would not sprout then.
Before planting, I went to ask Li Jianguo for advice. After sowing seeds, I specially picked the land.
If it doesn't sprout, it's been a year of blindness.
Tao Dayong made a bet.
What surprised him was that the germination rate reached 80%, and the seedlings didn't say it very well, at least those who were laughing at them closed their mouths.
Many people in the team joked Tao Dayong in person or behind his back for half a year, saying that he spent money to buy the seeds and became the sucker.
Tao Dayong didn't go out much all winter, just didn't want people to talk about it.
It's so painful.
His wife Ma Chunhong also complained a lot about him - although Tao Dayong has become stronger since the end of last year, he had no idea before this seedling emerged.
So after planting for a week, the seedlings of melon grow slowly. Looking at the tender green patch, Tao Dayong was so happy.
Next, he was more diligent than anyone else to clean up the grass in the melon field.
Daqiang bought a tractor, so Tao Jianshe discussed with him and gave Dayong the donkey cart at home.
Tao Daqiang had no objection. After all, he was his elder brother and he still had to take care of him.
After the donkey cart was given to Tao Dayong, he became more motivated to work in the fields, and there was no grass he had to take care of.
When he planted melons for the first time, he didn't know the technology, so he often went to Li Jian's country to see it. He opened the ridges, he also beat the branches, he also beat the fat, and he also watered the water.
In this way, although Tao Dayong's family's melon seedlings are second-class, the melon seedlings grow the best in the team.
His wife Ma Chunhong said that he was not as good to his son as he was to beat melon seedlings.
He only came back from the melon-beating field when Ma Jinbao called him. This time he found that the melon-beating seedlings were thick. Although he was reluctant to let go, the many seedlings had to be pulled out, otherwise they would not grow well.
Listening to Ma Jinbao's words, Tao Dayong waved his hand and said:
"No, I'll go home for dinner and I have to work in the afternoon. I'm so dizzy after drinking, so I can't get off the floor in the afternoon."
"What are you doing here? You're busy every day, what can you do? Can you be better than Li Long?"
Tao Dayong listened and smiled:
"How can Xiaolong be as powerful? We old farmers have to work hard in the field. It doesn't hurt to dig food in the field and do more."
After saying that, he was about to leave while leading the donkey cart, Ma Jinbao hurriedly called him:
"Li Long's wife is going to give birth to a baby. The family goes to see her. Don't you say that Li Long is amazing? Don't you go and curry favor?"
"What are you currying about? I've given birth to a baby, and I must have seen it after the confinement period." Tao Dayong was not angry. He knew Ma Jinbao's virtue, so this man had nothing to say.
"That's not a flattery? Otherwise, you'll go and give something to a junior?" Ma Jinbao couldn't stand others getting close to Li Long and Li Jianguo.
Anyway, he didn't take any advantage, so if someone else takes advantage of it, he would be flattering.
"Then why did you flatter me? This team gave birth to a baby. The old and the young gave some eggs or something. It's not normal. Why did you flatter me?" Tao Dayong felt that Ma Jinbao was a little strange, and he couldn't help but raise his voice. "Besides, what if you just curry favor with me?
He, Xiaolong, made me earn money and made my family's life better. Isn't it right for me to flatter him? Xiaoxia is a state cadre. She eats commercial food, and she comes out of our team. She is this from our team! ”
He raised his thumbs up and said:
"What's wrong with currying out a little bit? It's better than cursing out a drunkard, right?"
After saying that, Tao Dayu took the donkey cart away with a huff.
When he walked a few hundred meters and was almost home, Tao Dayong was dissatisfied.
He still knows Ma Jinbao and knows who this is. Isn’t it just that others live better than him, they are jealous. I am jealous and have no choice but to say these sour words.
What's the point?
It’s better to plant your own land well.
Think about the twenty acres of melons. Even if the yield per mu is a little smaller, it will cost 150 kilograms per mu, even 120 kilograms.
A kilogram of melon seeds costs three yuan, and that acre of land is more than three hundred, twenty acres of land...
Tao Dayong didn't dare to think about it anymore.
Not to mention three dollars, even one dollar, it is much better than planting wheat and corn.
Thinking about possible gains, Tao Dayong felt full of energy.
We farmers really have to dig food from the field. In the past, if you didn’t make money by farming, you wouldn’t be able to grow it.
With the Li family, there is really hope of making money.
This year, I can really harvest so many melon seeds in this field. If I really need to spend three yuan per kilogram, I will buy a tractor myself at the end of that year!
He always felt that he was stronger than his younger brother.
But after Daqiang followed Li Long, his life grew faster than the reed in the past two years, which was fine.
I first bought a bicycle, then got married, now I have a baby, I also bought a tractor, and built a new house.
It is fake to say that Tao Dayong doesn’t envy one by one.
In the past, my younger brother was disliked, but now he has become the target of young people in the team.
Tao Dayong also wants to live a good life, not to mention that he is better than his younger brother, at least he is not so nervous about spending money.
He hopes that this time the fight will be an opportunity for him to turn things around. He also knew that the seeds of the melon were given to him by the Li family, and he had to remember the kindness of the people.
Otherwise, Tao Dayong would not be able to say that just now. He can also see clearly that the people in the team are more realistic. Whoever lives well and has the ability will have reputation and status in the team.
Working hard is the right way. If you have the skill of drinking, it is better to go to the field to pull more grass.
When Li Jianguo drove a tractor to the big yard, Li Long and the others had breakfast not long ago.
Gu Xiaoxia is no longer at work, Han Fang still has to go to school, and the breakfast time has not changed. However, Gu Xiaoxia's appetite has increased a lot and she eats slowly, so Han Fang is basically the fastest one, and after eating, she hurried to go to school. Now.
Li Long also told Sister Yang that after dinner, she would let her go and do her own things and finally clean up her and Gu Xiaoxia.
With Li Long here, Sister Yang was not polite. After dinner, she simply cleaned the kitchen, then made the food she sold and pushed the car to the market.
When Gu Xiaoxia was still eating, Li Long fed the roe deer and the teasing little black dog.
After Gu Xiaoxia finished eating, he helped her to rest and then cleaned up the dining table.
When Li Long heard the sound of the tractor, he thought at first that someone had come to buy a harvester. These days, some people come here to buy a purchase machine. Some people come here to ask about the situation. Some people simply drive the tractor over and think of pulling the harvester away directly.
However, when he opened the door and saw that it was the eldest brother who was driving a tractor to pull a car of family members, Li Long was happy. He hurriedly opened the door completely, then went over and drove the jeep in, freeing up space for the tractor.
No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!
Li Qiang moved quickly, looking at the roe deer and the little black dog running in the yard, he jumped out of the car and rushed over to see these cute little guys.
"Dad, mother, brother and sister-in-law, why are you here?"
Li Long was really surprised.
"Xiaoxia is going to give birth, let's come and have a look." Sister-in-law Liang Yuemei got off the tractor and said while walking towards Gu Xiaoxia.
Because at home, Gu Xiaoxia was wearing a home clothes similar to pajamas made by Sister Yang, and sewn with round-neck floral cloth, Li Long also gave her own opinions.
As the family came, Gu Xiaoxia slowly stood up and greeted everyone with a smile.
Li Juan walked over and looked at her aunt curiously. She hadn't seen Gu Xiaoxia for some days. Now she looked at her and felt that the change was so big.
Du Chunfang came to Gu Xiaoxia behind Liang Yuemei and asked about her situation.
"Why is your belly so big? Are you pregnant with two?" Du Chunfang saw a lot after all, and asked, "You... don't look like one."
"It's two." Li Long was talking to his father and elder brother there. After hearing my mother's question, he replied to Gu Xiaoxia, "I don't know about boys and girls."
"One man and one woman are the best!" Liang Yuemei said with a smile, then looked at Gu Xiaoxia's belly, "Of course, it's all good to give birth to healthy ones!"
When they heard that there were two, everyone in the yard was happy and surprised. Even Li Qiang, who was teasing the roe deer, ran over to see Xiqi, wanting to see his younger brother or sister who was about to be born.
Li Qingxia couldn't help but ask Li Qiang:
"Qiangqiang, look, is it a younger brother or a younger sister in my aunt's belly?"
"Brother, right?" Li Qiang replied subconsciously, "Brother can play with me... sister can do it too."
OK, it's useless to ask.
He asked his family to sit down, Li Long went to pour water for his father and mother, but Liang Yuemei stopped him from working. The kitchen was there, and he was all his family, so there was no need to be so polite.
After chatting for a while, Liang Yuemei asked about the date of delivery and said that she planned to come here to serve her confinement.
"Sister Yang is here, you are busy with work in the field, so you don't have to come here." Gu Xiaoxia said.
"Two, can I bring that Sister Yang here no matter how powerful she is?" Liang Yuemei shook her head, "You don't have to worry about this anymore. Why do I have to come here to take care of her for a while before talking about it."
She turned her head and asked Li Long:
"Xiaolong, do you have a place to live?"
"Yes, yes, how can you not be there?" Li Long said with a smile, "There are two bedrooms on both sides of the main house, Xiaoxia and I are on the west side. Then, you will live in the east."
"Then you can't go to the confinement room when you are in confinement." Liang Yuemei said, "Change a different place."
"Okay, I live there." Li Long pointed to the east side casually, "There are many places to live."
This matter was settled so simply.
The Li family was still immersed in the fact that Gu Xiaoxia was pregnant with twins, which was a big surprise.
Next, Li Jianguo and Li Qingxia dealt with the fish in the yard, and Li Long went to call Gu Boyuan.
Since the family members have come, it is best for Gu Boyuan to call him and see if he can't get over it.
When Gu Boyuan heard that Li Jianguo and the others were coming, he immediately sent the customers in the store and came to the big yard with Li Long's jeep.
He and Li Jianguo hadn't seen each other for a while. After greeting Li Qingxia and Du Chunfang, they started chatting with Li Jianguo.
The in-laws attach great importance to their daughter's pregnancy, and Gu Boyuan is also very happy.
At one o'clock in the morning, Sister Yang came back with a cart and was a little surprised to see so many people in the yard.
Fortunately, she had seen the Li family before. After saying hello with a little restrained attitude, she went to the kitchen to cook.
Liang Yuemei and her were talking about Gu Xiaoxia while cooking.
Sister Yang was relieved to know that Liang Yuemei was coming during her confinement period.
To be honest, she must take care of her, but Sister Yang is also worried when she knows that Gu Xiaoxia is pregnant with two.
She is naturally happy that someone is helping to take care of her.
Li Long also expressed his thoughts. When he was about to give birth, he would take Gu Xiaoxia to Shicheng Second Hospital a few days in advance.
Shicheng Second Hospital is the best hospital nearby, and later it became a affiliated hospital of Shicheng University. Later, all Maxian County Hospital was summarized into the affiliated hospital of this hospital.
The doctor's skills here are definitely better than those in Ma County.
If Wucheng wasn't too far away, Li Long planned to bring Gu Xiaoxia to Wucheng for production.
It is mainly because after giving birth, Gu Xiaoxia was too distressed.
After all, it only takes ten kilometers from Shicheng, but more than one hundred kilometers from Wucheng.
That feels completely different.
Gu Boyuan naturally has no objection to Li Long's attention. Li Qingxia doesn't care about Li Long's so much importance. Du Chunfang feels it is unnecessary, but since her son has made a decision, she cannot object.
Li Jianguo and Liang Yuemei were naturally happy. Pregnancy is a major event in life and death. If you still have two more, it is naturally difficult to have children, and it is double the danger.
Of course, I have to go to the hospital if I can go to the hospital.
This matter is decided.
What I made at noon were rice, stewed fish, stir-fried green peppers and eggs, and fried knife beans. The habit of stir-frying knife beans here is to cut them into shreds diagonally and stir-fry them with the fried meat. It is very fragrant and very delicious.
There was an event at the school on weekends. When Han Fang came back, she was also a little surprised to find so many people in the yard. Sister Yang told her that she was a man. She said hello and shouted people politely, and then started playing with Li Juan and Li Qiang.
There are so many people in this yard and there are not many lively times, so everyone is very happy to eat.
It is beneficial to have a big yard. After dinner, the three children went to see the hedgehog, Sister Yang and Liang Yuemei cleaned the kitchen, and Du Chunfang and Gu Xiaoxia talked about what they should pay attention to later.
The men "visited" in the yard, and Li Long by the way said that he was planning to pull the harvester at Kuituntun.
It's not a big deal, everyone knows the situation, so this matter is equivalent to a notice.
"You can see the situation at that time. If you can, cut it. If Xiaoxia has something to do, don't cut it." Li Jianguo told Li Long in front of Gu Boyuan, "Home is the most important thing, do you understand?" br>
"I understand, I understand." Li Long said with a smile. (This chapter ends)
