Chapter 167 My brother sent something back
Are you kidding me?
How can I keep someone like you who harbors evil intentions and wicked thoughts?
Li Guoqiang looked at Zhu Caiyan's pitiful face, complained a few words in his heart, and then said in a cold voice: "Come with me!"
After saying that, he quickly walked towards a haystack not far away.
Seeing this, Zhu Caiyan was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly followed Li Guoqiang.
After a while, they came behind the haystack and saw a person crouching and hiding in the haystack.
"Mom, didn't you say you were going home? Why are you here?"
Zhu Caiyan looked at Zhao Chunhua, who was covered in straw, with a look of surprise on her face.
"Forehead"
Zhao Chunhua looked at Li Guoqiang and Zhu Caiyan who suddenly ran over, an embarrassed look appeared on her face, and then she stammered, not knowing how to explain.
"That. I. I that."
"okay!"
Li Guoqiang didn't wait for Zhao Chunhua to finish her words, so he waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Sister, I brought the person to you. If there is nothing else, I will go back first!"
After saying that, he immediately turned around and walked quickly towards home.
"Hey!"
When Zhao Chunhua saw Li Guoqiang was about to leave, she hurriedly opened her mouth and called out.
However, when Li Guoqiang heard the shouting, he not only did not stop, but quietly quickened his pace, and in the blink of an eye he had opened up a distance of more than 100 meters.
By the time Zhao Chunhua chased him out from behind the haystack, he had already returned home, and he did not forget to close the gate.
Seeing this situation, Zhao Chunhua's eyes widened, then she stopped abruptly, turned around and looked at Zhu Caiyan, her eyes full of anger.
"You stupid girl, you can't even do such a small thing. I really raised you for nothing!"
"mom!"
Zhu Caiyan felt wronged when she heard this. "I've already knelt down and begged them, but they don't agree. What can I do?"
"Alright, alright!"
Zhao Chunhua looked at Zhu Caiyan lowering her head and wiping away tears, waved her hand with disgust and said, "I don't want to listen to your nonsense. You should think carefully about how to explain it to your father, your grandmother, and your brother when you go back!"
After saying that, she glanced at the tightly closed gate not far away with an unwilling look on her face, then turned around and left angrily.
Now, she has tried all the possible methods. Instead of staying and embarrassing herself, she might as well go back to Zhu Gui to discuss what to do next.
When Zhu Caiyan saw that Zhao Chunhua did not abandon her, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then hurriedly followed Zhao Chunhua like a follower.
At the same time, when Xu Yuping learned that Li Guoqiang had brought Zhu Caiyan back to Zhao Chunhua, she did not worry too much and immediately returned to the wooden house with Li Guoqiang to continue fluffing cotton for Pan Qiaoyan and Shen Fengxia.
While she was busy, she did not forget to explain to Pan Qiaoyan and Shen Fengxia what had happened before, so as to avoid any unnecessary misunderstandings.
When they heard that Zhao Chunhua wanted to marry Zhu Caiyan to Li Guoqiang, Pan Qiaoyan and Shen Fengxia felt inexplicably nervous.
Only when Li Guoqiang made it clear that he had no feelings for Zhu Caiyan did the two of them feel relieved.
Li Guoqiang was naturally unaware of this, and he didn't take it to heart.
In his opinion, he didn't need this bite of food, so there was no need for him to get involved with a bad person like Zhao Chunhua for the sake of a pretty girl.
If it weren't for the relationship between Xu Yuping and Zhu Caixia, mother and daughter, he wouldn't even bother to take a look.
If he has this free time, he might as well eat some more melon seeds!
As for Qu Yinfeng and Xu Dani, their thoughts were even simpler. No matter what Li Guoqiang said or did, they knew they just had to give their support silently.
Just like that, the little episode about Zhao Chunhua and Zhu Caiyan was soon forgotten by them, and life returned to its usual rhythm.
Since it takes a lot of time to restack the old quilt, Pan Qiaoyan and Shen Fengxia did not stay for long after listening to the gossip. Instead, they went back to the educated youth site and came back to get the quilt in the evening.
Moreover, at Li Guoqiang's request, they each received ten kilograms of sweet potatoes as wages.
In this way, he can get an extra 200 kilograms of sweet potatoes by swiping the rewards, which is much easier than taking money.
At night, after begging for mercy, Xu Yuping suddenly asked, "Qiangzi, are you really not going to find a partner? I think Qiaoyan and Fengxia both seem to have some feelings for you. If you can put in some effort, you should be able to win them over!"
"Ah!"
Li Guoqiang was delighted, and then he asked with a laugh: "What's the matter? Do you really want me to find a partner?"
"no!"
Xu Yuping shook her head, and then said with some guilt: "I just feel so useless that I can't let you..."
"Harmful!"
Hearing this, Li Guoqiang quickly waved his hands and said, "I thought it was something else! You don't have to think so much, as long as we are happy!"
"Besides, finding a partner is not as simple as you say. If you have the time to think about these things, you might as well think about how to take care of our family."
"Ok!"
After listening to this, Xu Yuping looked at Li Guoqiang with some emotion, then nodded quickly and agreed.
In the blink of an eye, it was the next morning.
Li Guoqiang finished his breakfast at home, then went to the back mountain with his gun to check the wolf kilns and traps.
Perhaps because he had caught all the prey nearby, he only received 1 rabbit and 2 pheasants in the end. Then, by brushing the rewards, he got an additional 10 rabbits and 20 pheasants, so his work was not in vain.
Then, he used teleportation to go to Phoenix Ridge.
When Guan Changsheng and Zhou Xiaoyu saw Li Guoqiang coming empty-handed, they couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly took out 376 yuan and handed it to Li Guoqiang.
"Qiangzi, this is the money we got from selling the two wild boars last time. The total is 368 yuan. Click on it!"
"Ok!"
Li Guoqiang nodded in agreement, took the money, counted out 340 yuan, and then handed the rest back.
"This"
When Guan Changsheng saw Li Guoqiang's actions, he couldn't help but hesitate for a moment.
"Uncle Sheng, we have already agreed that you will give me 170 yuan for one wild boar, so two will be 340 yuan, so you should take the money!"
Seeing this, Li Guoqiang hurriedly spoke up to persuade him.
"That"
Guan Changsheng and Zhou Xiaoyu looked at each other, then nodded somewhat embarrassedly and agreed, "Then I'll shamelessly take advantage of you!" After that, he reached out to take the money, stuffed it into his pocket, and couldn't help feeling excited in his heart.
You know, this amount of money is not a small sum, it is almost as much as an ordinary worker's monthly salary.
He just had to work a little harder to pull the wild boars to the county town to sell them.
"correct!"
Seeing Guan Changsheng so happy, Li Guoqiang suddenly thought of something and hurriedly said, "Uncle Sheng, the Chinese New Year is coming in a few days. I don't plan to go hunting in the mountains recently, so the next time I sell the prey, I have to wait until after the Chinese New Year."
"fine!"
Upon hearing this, Guan Changsheng quickly waved his hands and said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about us, just come over when you have time!"
"Come on, Qiangzi, hurry into the house and get on the kang to warm up. Auntie just happened to steam some white flour buns yesterday. You can have lunch at home today before going back!"
At this time, Zhou Xiaoyu also hurriedly pulled Li Guoqiang into the house, with a warm smile on her face.
If Li Guoqiang was just a great benefactor in the couple's hearts before, now he has to be called the God of Wealth as well.
It wouldn't cost much in a year, they just needed to ask them to help sell seven or eight wild boars, and the money they earned would be enough to make the couple happy.
Of course, even if Li Guoqiang doesn't make money for them, they are still willing to help Li Guoqiang sell the prey, but they will definitely not be as enthusiastic as they are now.
Li Guoqiang was well aware of this, so he did not reject Zhou Xiaoyu's kindness and waited until after lunch before saying goodbye and leaving.
During that time, Guan Changsheng also told him an incident. He said that Aunt Wang secretly took people to the next county to do business, and was discovered by the customer's wife, and was almost beaten to death.
This reminded him of an old saying: If you walk by the river often, you will get your feet wet.
Since you have chosen to do such a business, you must be prepared to be despised and beaten.
Not long after, he used a simple sled to pull 11 rabbits and 22 pheasants back home, which surprised Qu Yinfeng, Xu Yuping, Zhu Caixia and Xu Dani.
Although there is not much meat on rabbits and pheasants, there are so many of them!
If these rabbits and pheasants were taken to a purchasing station and sold, they would fetch at least 30 or 40 yuan, which is equivalent to half a year's work points.
If the situation continues like this, it is estimated that their family will be able to directly spend money to buy work points next year.
Of course, having said that, under normal circumstances, even if their family had the money, they would not actually spend it to buy work points. At most, when distributing dividends at the end of the year, they would see if they could spend money to buy more food from the production team.
While Qu Yinfeng and Xu Yuping were busy dealing with the rabbits and pheasants, in Tongluoguxiang of Sijiucheng, Li Guofu rode his bicycle very fast and arrived at the gate of the courtyard in a short while. Then he happened to meet Yan Bugui who was walking out of the courtyard.
"Hey! What are all those bags in your car, Xiaofu?"
"Oh! Uncle, these are the New Year gifts my brother sent to our family!"
Upon hearing this, Li Guofu glanced at Yan Bugui, then spoke with a happy face.
After saying that, he reached out and grabbed the crossbar of the bicycle, trying to lift it into the yard.
"New Year's goods?"
Yan Bugui's eyes lit up, and he quickly said, "Well, slow down, I'll help you!"
Having said that, without waiting for Li Guofu to say anything, he walked forward, held the rear of the bike, and lifted the bike in together with Li Guofu.
"Thank you so much, Uncle!"
When Li Guofu saw this situation, he could only smile and thank Yan Bugui.
"You're welcome!"
Yan Bugui waved his hand and said enthusiastically, "We are all neighbors living in the same courtyard. It is my duty to help you."
"Well, you have so many things in your car, let me help you push it back!"
"That's it!"
Hearing this, Li Guofu thought that Li Guoqiang would not send any good things to his family. In addition, Yan Bugui was so enthusiastic, so he didn't want to be too unkind. So he quickly nodded and agreed, "Then thank you!"
"No trouble, no trouble!"
Yan Bugui was delighted, then quickly shook his head and spoke.
After saying that, he held on to the back of the bike tightly and pushed the bike towards the gate of Old Li's house together with Li Guofu.
"Dad, Mom, Sister, my brother has sent something back!"
Before he even reached the door, Li Guofu started shouting with an excited smile on his face.
Although he didn't know what Li Guoqiang had sent to his home, being able to receive something from Li Guoqiang was a happy thing in itself.
Therefore, this proves that Li Guoqiang should be living a good life, otherwise, he would not have the leisure and ability to send things to his family.
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Dawei, Yao Meilan and Luo Huijuan opened the door and ran out. They ignored Yan Bugui's existence and focused their attention on the packages on the back seat of the bicycle.
"Dad, Mom, Sister, what are you guys standing there for? Come over here and help me get the things in!"
When Li Guofu saw Li Dawei, Yao Meilan and Luo Huijuan coming out, he hurriedly spoke up to urge them.
As he spoke, he had already untied the belt that tied the package.
"Oh!"
Upon hearing this, Li Dawei, Yao Meilan and Luo Huijuan hurriedly nodded in agreement, then ran forward and moved the packages into the house one by one.
Seeing this, Li Guofu didn't care about the bicycle, nor did he pay attention to Yan Bugui, and hurriedly ran in.
When Yan Bugui saw this situation, he was dumbfounded for a moment.
Originally, he wanted to see what Li Guoqiang sent back home and get some benefits at the same time, but he didn't expect that he was directly treated as invisible.
However, this little thing was not difficult for him. He just rolled his eyes and immediately followed Li Guofu into Old Li's house. It looked as if he was invited in by Li Guofu.
"what?"
Just as Li Dawei was about to open the package with scissors, he saw Yan Bugui following behind Li Guofu. He couldn't help but reveal a puzzled look on his face, "Uncle, why are you here?"
Hearing this, Yao Meilan and Luo Huijuan also turned their heads to look at Yan Bugui, with a hint of confusion in their eyes.
Li Guofu was slightly stunned, then quickly said: "Well, I'm sorry! Uncle, I was just thinking about getting the package and forgot to greet you. Please don't mind."
"fine!"
Yan Bugui waved his hand, then laughed and said, "Now is a good time for me to see what goodies Qiangzi has sent back to your family!"
Hearing this, Li Guofu was slightly stunned, then quickly turned his head to look at Li Dawei, Yao Meilan and Luo Huijuan, not knowing whether to refuse or agree.
