Chapter 370 Being a son-in-law also has this benefit
Just as Li Le was about to get dressed, his brother-in-law Nie Wei also woke up and asked: "Brother-in-law, why are you up so early?"
"It's okay. I have to get up when I wake up. You can sleep a little longer."
"Oh!" Brother-in-law Nie Wei agreed and got into bed again.
Also, for a teenage child, it’s time to sleep in.
Fortunately, it's winter vacation. I don't know if I can sleep in if I go to school.
Li Le came out of the house. His father-in-law and mother-in-law had already gotten up and were packing the things they brought back in the main room.
"Hey, Xiaole, why did you get up so early? Why don't you sleep more." Mother-in-law asked.
"I don't want to lie down when I wake up."
After hearing what Li Le said, my father-in-law said: "Young people have to be like this, otherwise they will easily develop laziness."
The mother-in-law pushed the father-in-law and said, "Why are you lazy! Isn't it snowing? There's nothing wrong."
"Too."
The mother-in-law quickly looked at Li Le and said, "Sit down and rest quickly. Breakfast will be ready soon."
"It's okay. I drove all day yesterday and I don't want to sit in it anymore."
To be honest, driving for a day is nothing to Li Le, but there is one thing that makes his butt feel uncomfortable.
No one would be comfortable sitting there for more than ten hours at a time!
"Okay, let's take a walk then. We just have some exercise to save ourselves from the cold."
"Yeah!" Li Le nodded.
Li Le came outside the house. It was no longer snowing at this time, but there was already a thick layer on the ground.
Of course, this is talking about the outside. The courtyard has been cleaned. Needless to say, it must have been cleaned after my father-in-law got up.
Li Le came out of the courtyard and looked into the distance. There was a vast expanse of white everywhere.
In Li Le's hometown, we haven't seen such heavy snow in many years, but here, this is just light snow.
Of course, Li Le was unfamiliar with the place here, so he couldn't wander around. He just walked around the gate and then returned to the house.
At this time, Nie Weiwei and her sister-in-law were already up, including her brother-in-law.
But looking at my brother-in-law like this, he must have been reluctant to get up, because he could tie a donkey's head to his mouth.
"Husband, I'll get you hot water. You wash up first."
Now that there are no outsiders, this girl doesn't pretend anymore and just resumes her appearance in the imperial capital.
"No, I can do it myself."
"Oh, you're not familiar with it. You know where to get hot water! You'd better stay here!"
Hearing what Nie Weiwei said, Li Le touched his nose, it was really like that!
Nie Weiwei soon brought him face wash and a toothbrush filled with toothpaste.
"Thanks!"
Li Le quickly finished washing up, then took out the face wash and poured it out.
The brother-in-law came over quickly, took the basin and said, "Brother-in-law, I'll come."
"Oh! Good!"
Li Le thought that the boy asked for a basin to wash his face, but who knew that was not the case, but to help carry the basin.
This left Li Le speechless! It’s just a basin, so I can still tire myself out.
"Brother-in-law, it's time to eat." My sister-in-law shouted at this time.
"Here we come." Li Le agreed and quickly entered the room.
The food had already been brought out at this time, cornmeal porridge, meatloaf, and of course, pickles and scrambled eggs with green onions.
To be honest, this is already pretty good, but I can’t help it. With the weather here, it’s rare to get fresh food.
Of course, this is talking about the village. If you live in a town or county, it will be different.
It is even said that it is okay to live closer to the town, but here is more than ten kilometers away from the town. When it snows, it takes almost an hour to drive. Who would go to the town to buy things at this time!
Li Le can completely understand. After all, even if you put the vegetables in the cellar, you can't put the green vegetables.
"Come on, Xiaole, sit down and eat quickly." said the mother-in-law.
"Okay auntie."
After Li Le sat down, Nie Weiwei quickly served him a bowl of corn porridge and said, "This is what we eat here in the morning. Let's do it this way. I'll go to the small shop in the village to see if there is any millet and buy some millet."
"No, this cornmeal porridge is pretty good, and it's not unpalatable." Li Le said.
"Here, have a meat pie." The mother-in-law put a big meat pie on a plate and handed it to Li Le.
This meatloaf is really substantial. Not to mention its size, it is also very thick. There is no shortage of ingredients in one piece.
But it tastes really good. No wonder Nie Weiwei is so good at cooking. She learned it from her mother-in-law!
Li Le ate two at once before eating any more, leaving his brother-in-law in a daze.
I guess I was thinking that this brother-in-law was too good at eating, so he ate two such big meatloaves at once.
Of course, this kid wasn't stupid, he just thought about it and didn't say it out loud.
After eating, Nie Weiwei, her mother-in-law and sister-in-law went to the kitchen to clean up.
Li Le took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed one to his father-in-law.
"No, I'll smoke this one, you'd better smoke that one yourself!" Looking at the Chinese Dragon that Li Le handed over, the father-in-law said quickly.
"Uncle, it's just a cigarette, no matter how expensive it is, it's just for smoking!" After saying that, he handed it directly to the father-in-law.
Now that it's like this, what else can my father-in-law say? He can only touch it and put it in his mouth.
"Alas! This cigarette costs more than 2,000 yuan. Many children in the village who work in the county cannot earn this cigarette in a month."
"Well!"
Li Le didn't know how to answer the conversation that day.
Just then, my brother-in-law came out of the house and said, "Dad, can this be the same? My brother-in-law earns more, so of course he spends more."
"You brat, you're here, go back to the house and stay."
"No, I want to go buy cannon with my brother-in-law."
Hearing what his brother-in-law said, my father-in-law said, "I think you need to take care of yourself."
"Uncle, no, I asked Xiaowei to go with me." Li Le said awkwardly.
Yes, when chatting last night, Li Le asked his brother-in-law Nie Wei if there was anyone selling cannon in the village.
"That's it! Okay, then go ahead! Cannons are not allowed in the city right now. I just happened to be here. You can buy more and let them go."
"Um!"
"Let's go, Xiaowei." Li Le shouted.
"Yeah!" Brother-in-law Nie Wei nodded quickly, then ran to the front to lead the way.
Maybe it’s because of the snow! No one was seen on the road in the village, they were probably all staying indoors.
Yes, it’s more than 20 degrees below zero. Who can come out if nothing happens?
"Brother-in-law, we're just ahead." Nie Wei pointed to a house and said.
"good."
When he got here, Li Le looked up and saw Nie Hong Supermarket.
Needless to say, Nie Hong should be the owner of this small supermarket. Small shops in the village are like this, using their own name as the name of the shop.
The supermarket is very small, probably only about 20 square meters, but it has a full range of items.
All are daily necessities, tobacco, alcohol and snacks.
"Hey, Xiaowei, this is..."
As soon as the two people entered the store, a woman in her thirties glanced at Li Le and turned to ask Nie Wei.
"Sister Hong, this is my brother-in-law."
"Oh! That's it! What do you want to buy?"
This woman's surname is also Nie, and she should be from the same family as Nie Weiwei, or the same ancestor.
"Sister Hong, my brother-in-law wants to buy cannons. What cannons do you have here?" Nie Wei asked.
"It's all over there, take a look!" Nie Hong pointed and said. Nie Wei took one look, his eyes lit up, and he pulled Li Le and said, "Let's go, brother-in-law."
"Yeah!" Li Le agreed, nodded with Nie Hong, and passed.
But when Li Le saw what they were all about, he was a little disappointed, because what they sold here were either hanging whips, cannon-cracking cannons and small fireworks for children.
"Brother-in-law, what kind of cannon do you want to buy?" Nie Wei asked.
"I want to buy that kind of marleli seeds."
"Mareizi, what is it?" Nie Wei asked, scratching his head.
"It's the kind that is relatively big, and then one by one, the twister is the fuse."
At this time, the boss Nie Hong said: "I don't have the one you mentioned here. You have to go to town to buy it."
"Oh well!"
After Li Le finished speaking, he pulled his brother-in-law and said, "Let's go, there's none here."
"oh!"
The two of them came out of the small supermarket. Nie Wei asked, "Brother-in-law, do you want to go to town to buy some?"
"Yes, I'm going to go to town."
"Then I'll go too."
"Okay, go back and call your eldest sister, and we'll drive to town."
"Yeah, great." After shouting, the boy ran home.
Li Le shook his head and said, "Slow down, don't fall."
When Li Le returned, he heard that his brother-in-law was being disciplined.
Needless to say, this kid must have said he wanted to drive to town first, otherwise his father-in-law would not have scolded him.
"What's going on?" Li Le came in and asked.
"Xiao Le, don't spoil him. What kind of town are you going to in this snowy day?"
"Uncle, you are wrongly blaming Xiaowei. I am going to the town. I just went to the village supermarket to buy cannons. There was nothing I wanted, so I planned to go to the town to buy them."
"You heard it! My brother-in-law is going to town. I still don't believe it." Nie Wei said aggrievedly.
"Xiao Le! I forgot to buy some cannons. Does it have to be so far away?"
"Dad, he likes to shoot off cannons. Don't worry about it. It's convenient to have a car." Nie Weiwei said at this time.
"Oh well!"
"Brother-in-law, I'm going too." My sister-in-law also said.
"Can."
"Uncle and aunt, are you going? I can sit in the car." Li Le asked.
"We won't go, you go ahead! Drive carefully."
"Don't worry, Mom! Li Le specially changed into snow tires before coming here, and there's no problem at all."
"That's good."
Seeing that Li Le and the others were about to drive out, the father-in-law quickly went over and opened the door.
After Nie Weiwei, sister-in-law and brother-in-law got into the car, Li Le started the car and drove out.
When he started the car, Li Le didn't turn on the air conditioner, and it was still a little cold in the car.
After leaving the village, Li Le turned on the air conditioner, and the temperature in the car slowly rose.
The reason why we drove for an hour last night was to drive from the town to the village.
Not only because it’s snowing, but mainly because it’s dark, and it’s much faster now that it’s daytime.
But when we arrived in town, it was more than forty minutes later.
Maybe it’s because of the snow! There were not many people in the town, not even anyone.
Of course, the shops are open.
This town is not big, not even half as big as the town in Li Le's hometown.
"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, there's a cannon shop over there." Nie Wei pointed at a shop and shouted.
Li Le actually saw it too and drove directly over.
After parking the car, Li Le did not turn off the engine. He had no choice but to turn off the air conditioner in the car!
It’s more than 20 degrees below zero. If you turn off the engine, there will be no warmth in the car soon.
As for the temperature outside, it doesn't matter to Li Le and the others.
Because when getting off the bus, everyone puts on their down jackets first. Canada Goose’s down jackets are nothing at all when the temperature is more than 20 degrees below zero.
"Boss, do you have that kind of mareizi here?" Li Le asked as soon as he entered the store.
"Are you asking about the kind of opener?" Li Le asked back.
Li Le shook his head and said, "No, it's a little smaller than a cannon, and it's sold individually."
Hearing what Li Le said, the boss walked in, quickly moved a plate and placed it in front of Li Le and asked, "Do you think it's like this?"
"Yes, yes, that's it. How many are in this plate?"
"One hundred on this plate."
This head is similar to the one in Li Le's hometown, but the number is different. In Li Le's hometown, this plate has fifty.
"How much?"
"Are you the uncle here?" the boss asked with a smile.
"Uh! Yes."
"Then give me forty yuan!"
Li Le touched his nose and said jokingly: "What are the benefits of being an uncle here?"
"Hahaha!" Sister-in-law laughed.
Of course, after finally coming here, Li Le couldn't just buy this plate of marlezi.
"Boss, do you have any good fireworks here?"
"Yes, I have!"
"Can I take a look?" Li Le asked.
"Of course, let's go, I'll take you in to take a look." After saying this, the boss said hello and came over to take a look first.
Then he took Li Le to the back. As for Nie Weiwei and the other three, they were picking out those small fireworks.
The boss took Li Le to a room at the back and said, "They are all here. Which one do you want?"
Li Le looked at it and saw that there were quite a lot of fireworks, but they were basically small ones, the kind with forty or eighty rings.
"Boss, how much does this cost?" Li Le asked, pointing to a particularly big one.
This firework is almost two meters long, about one meter wide, and not very high, about forty centimeters.
"This one is more expensive. It costs 1,600 rings and contains 12 grams of medicine. I only bought two of them, but none of them were sold. If you want it, I'll pay you the price."
"Oh! How much?"
"Just give me two thousand and two for each."
The boss is also very helpless! He thought that with just two of them, he could sell them no matter what, but it had been almost a month since he came back, and a lot of people asked, but when he mentioned the price, no one wanted to buy.
"Okay, I want both of them. Do you have any bigger ones?"
Hearing Li Le's question, the boss quickly said: "There are big ones, but not as big as this one. There are also 500-ring fireworks, 360-ring fireworks, and the remaining ones are up to 100-ring fireworks."
Li Le didn't say how much he wanted, but looked at the boss and asked, "Can you deliver it to your door?"
"Uh! How much do you plan to ask for?" The boss looked at Li Le and asked.
"If you can deliver it to your door, I will definitely ask for more!"
PS: There is always love in thousands of rivers and mountains, can you give me a ticket? Thanks!
