The palm-leaf fan in Li Fu's hand was rattling, obviously very angry. After fanning it a few times, he got up and went into the kitchen, and said to Li Qinghe who was eating steamed buns, "Do you really want the Zhou family? Don't blame me for not reminding me." You, you have to wait over there, don't wait until you become an old girl. Otherwise, you will look at me obediently, I am your father, and I will not harm you. "
Li Qinghe might as well just say a few words to Qian, Li Fu rushed to her in a hurry and said, couldn't help but said, "The Zhou family never said they want to marry me, where did you hear that?"
Glancing at the courtyard outside through the wall, Li Qinghe frowned and said, "Father, I'm only fourteen, and I'm only fifteen after the Chinese New Year. There are eighteen married people in the village. Are you so anxious to marry me?"
Li Fu thought about it, and he seemed to be a little anxious, but he naturally wouldn't admit it in front of his daughter, "Then you shouldn't delay, it won't hurt you to make arrangements earlier."
Li Qinghe shook her head, "I don't want to marry now." She looked outside and asked in a low voice, "Father, do you want to get back the money from Uncle Wanwan?"
Who wouldn't bring misfortune to the east.
Qian didn't want Li Fu to drag the money she lent out to talk about her marriage, wouldn't she want to mention it again
Sure enough, Li Fu's face darkened in an instant, and he went out shaking his fan. Soon, Qian's low voice explaining again sounded outside.
Zhao Wanwan huddled in the room like a quail, and when she heard Qian's crying, she didn't show her head at all.
When Li Qinghe went out after eating, Qian Shi was crying so sadly that she couldn't even burp, and Li Fu was comforting her.
Sure enough, it was the woman he fell in love with when he was a teenager. Even if he did something wrong, as long as he cried, he couldn't bear it.
The next morning, Li Qinghe changed into his clothes and went to the wasteland with a knife in his hand, planning to cut the grass by the pond first and then go down to clear it. She was used to these jobs in her previous life, but she forgot, and now she is not used to them, but within half an hour, she was so tired that her back ached and her palms ached. She had never done it because she worked as a kitchen helper in the town for the past two years. The ground, the hands are still delicate, and the work quickly caused blisters.
She spread her hands, looked at the red palm, bent down and continued to cut, and when she raised her head after a while, she found an old man standing not far from her at some time, she was stunned, "Grandpa."
It was her grandfather who came, but he hadn't spoken to her for a long time, because Li Fu insisted on marrying Qian Shi, the two elders moved to her uncle's house, and they never visited Li Fu's house again.
Li Kui nodded, walked forward, and asked in a deep voice, "I heard from your third master, you bought ten acres of land here?"
Thinking of the old man going to ask Li Fu not to force her to get married, Li Qinghe's heart softened, and he pointed around, "This is the area. I want to clear the small pond to buy fry and raise fish."
Li Kui was a little surprised, and bent down to look at the pond, "Is that all right?"
In fact, Li Qinghe had no idea, "Whether it will work or not, you have to try it to know."
Li Kui nodded, bent down beside her and began to cut a larger tree, pointing to a small sapling next to her and said, "This is a peach tree, don't cut it down, save it for future peach blossoms."
Li Qinghe saw that he cut neatly, but he was not young after all, and said, "Grandpa, I can do it myself."
"I exercise my muscles and bones, and it's good to do some work." Li Kui instructed without raising his head, "Miss, remember to wear a straw hat when doing work, don't get sunburned on your face, it's so dark that it doesn't look good." Disgusting tone.
The corner of Li Qinghe's mouth couldn't help curling up, "I see."
There is a spring in that pond, the spring water is sweet, so you don't need to bring water to drink. After meal time, Li Qinghe threw down the knife, "Grandpa, I'll get you some food."
"No need." Li Kui said in a rough voice, "I don't want to eat your food, I'll go home to eat later."
Probably not eating Li Fu's food.
Sure enough, he came again after dinner, and when he returned home after dark, he said, "I'll come back tomorrow." No one could refuse.
But this is not going to work. The old man came to help her with work, but went back to eat. Her aunt should be upset. After two days of cutting like this, the effect is gratifying, and more than half of it was cut in one circle.
It happened to be a big fair, when Li Qinghe asked Zhou Chengkang to take people to the town, he bought 20 catties of grain, but did not take it home, and sent it directly to Li Kui.
It was lunch time when I arrived, and my aunt Liu was setting up meals. There was a big tree in their yard, and lunch was placed on the stone table under the tree. I heard her say, "It's cold, and people seem to be hungry too." Hurry up, the food has been harvested so fast recently, and there is still more than half a month before the autumn harvest, and I don’t know if I can survive until then.”
Uncle Li Xingwang scolded her, "Talking too much will never starve you."
Li Qinghe stepped into the yard at this time, with a rice bag in her hand, "Grandpa, grandma, uncle, aunt, brother, Qingyuan." After calling one by one, she put the bag at the kitchen door, and said with an apologetic smile, "Grandpa Help me cut down trees, but it’s not convenient for me to cook for him, so please trouble my aunt.”
Liu's face was full of smiles, "Why is this so embarrassing?" He said so, but the hand that took the food was steady.
Li Qinghe spoke softly, "You helped me, I should be ashamed." For nothing else, the old man lived with her, only begging her to be kind to her.
Mrs. Liu opened the bag, her eyes lit up, she remembered something, and said, "I heard that you want to clear the pond, let your uncle and brother go together tomorrow, and I will cook and send it to you. The pond is not big, it will be done in two or three days."
Li Qinghe was a little surprised, "Why is this so embarrassing?"
"I'm also embarrassed." Liu picked up the food, "I can't take yours for nothing, then it's a deal, I'll take it in."
The people at the table over there kept watching and did not refute Liu Shi's words. Li Xingwang even invited her to have dinner together.
It really made a difference if someone helped, but within three days, the pond had been cleared, and all the weeds around had been cleared away, and Li Qinghe was also preparing to introduce fish fry.
She had thought about it a long time ago, if other people don't know about fish fry, the person who comes to sell fish at the market must know about it.
However, before that, I had to go to the town to help the Sun's family cook. On the fifth day of the lunar new year, just after dawn, Li Qinghe called Zhao Wanwan to get up. It was still early, and the two of them went out of the village to the town together without telling anyone.
Turning around a valley, she suddenly heard a man's cry of pain in front of her. Zhao Wanwan was so frightened that her face turned pale and she held onto her arm tightly. Looking at the person lying on the ground not far away, Li Qinghe was also a little nervous, and took a few steps closer, and saw the blue gown clearly in the faint skylight, and felt familiar in his heart... Xu Changhe!
The blue gown was stained with blood, and he could only lie on the ground and cry out in pain, and he could see the traces of crawling over from the side of the mountain, and he was beaten so badly, who did this person offend
