Chapter 236 The reason why I can’t tell you!

Jiayin smiled and shook her little head, refusing to admit the fact that she was a foodie.

 Because she prefers the title of money lover to foodie.

Just now she left more than a thousand cantaloupes and cold melons in Dongmei’s yard.

This is all money, and the white money will soon flow into her pocket.

Just thinking about this matter, let alone snacks or stones in her hand, she will chew them all deliciously!

Li Laoer kicked Jiayi and Liu Yang out of the car and asked them to follow the mule cart, not wanting to see their haggard appearance.

 The two boys didn't understand any big principles, and they didn't think it was them who caused the women to end up like this.

 But the cause of the incident was ultimately their fault.

They were beaten in the mouth before, and now they have to walk home again. Their mouth hurts and their legs are tired, which makes them feel strangely better.

 It is as if they have paid the price for their mistakes and there is no need to keep them in their hearts.

Of course, the four words of being cautious in words and deeds were deeply imprinted in their hearts because of this lesson.

The village chief, Uncle Zhao and others knew why the Li family came to the city. They were worried about it and waited for the intersection.

When the Li family finally came back, the first thing they said was, "How's it going? Has Mr. Marquis's reputation been cleared?"

Li Laoer didn't dare to let the elderly people bother, so he quickly explained the matter in a simple and clear way, explaining it clearly in a dozen sentences.

The village chief and others all let out a sigh of relief, "That's how it should be. The Marquis is out fighting, not just anyone who wants to throw dirty water will do it!"

Shenjie Doctor Zhang put his hands behind his back and said in hindsight, "I told you not to worry, but you still don't believe me. Ye Xiaozi is not unusual at all, but he has a strong backer."

The village chief and other old men all rolled their eyes, "Yes, you already knew that, why did you come here to wait? Your neck is stretched longer than an old turtle."

 Zhang Shenyi blushed with anger and tried to defend, "Isn't it just to accompany you? Otherwise, I would have eaten enough to hold on."

Mrs. Li quickly helped to smooth things over and said with a smile, "We can't stand it. Our stomachs are growling all the way. Let Hongying prepare some dishes and come to our house to have dinner together in the evening."

  "Okay, I'll hold the wine jar, so we can celebrate."

The village chief agreed, and Uncle Zhao and the others originally ate with the Li family, so there was no objection to it.

When it got dark, two tables were placed in the yard of the Li family. Li Laosi called Liu Biaotou and his family of three, filled the two tables and started eating.

Everyone was chatting while eating and drinking. Talking about the Mid-Autumn Festival that was coming soon, Li Laoer advocated giving some food and drink to every house in the village.

 Because it’s not time to pay wages yet, so it’s not good to break the rules, but you must celebrate the festival.

The village chief said, "Let's use meat per head. Two taels of meat and half a catty of fine noodles per person is enough for every family to eat a meal of dumplings. As for chickens, ducks and fish, each family can provide as much as they can afford."

Li Laoer nodded, "Then listen to uncle. Every family has its own living habits. Some people are frugal, while others are extravagant. If you can see the difference now, you will have a plan in mind in the future."

"Yes," the village chief thought the same way. "In the future, every family's life will be better and better, and they will have more money. They should also hammer frequently to save money."

 Having dinner until almost the second watch, I saw that the Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching, and the moon in the sky was particularly bright.

Previously, there were not many guests scheduled to come over for the Mid-Autumn Festival in the valley, so Li Laoer simply refused and let the villagers rest for a day. Those who like to have fun can also go to the valley pool to take a dip.

 So, everyone is looking forward to the Mid-Autumn Festival. On August 13th, Ye Shan and Dongmei came back, bringing two boxes and some food such as chicken, fish, meat and eggs.

Chickens, fish, meat and eggs were naturally delivered to the Li family's kitchen. When Mrs. Li heard that it was Master Ye's previous order, she did not refuse.

She thought about hurrying up the gown she was sewing in the past few days so that she could wear it when Mr. Ye came to stay for a while after the Mid-Autumn Festival.

 But how did she know that the two boxes were the highlight, and they had been put away by her precious granddaughter at this moment.

Jiayin sneaked into the space on the pretext of taking a nap, picked up two boxes of silver, and was jumping around like an excited frog.

 “Get rich, get rich!”

You must know that when I took the risk to take out small pills, I only got about 200 taels from Mr. Ye, but now I have gained more than 2,000 taels at once!

If she hadn't been worried that grandma would be frightened when she found out she was missing, she would have wanted to sleep with the money in her arms!

 At lunch time, there were not many people eating at home, only the old lady, Ye Shan Dongmei, Li Lao Er and Li Lao Si, but everyone was staring at the good news non-stop.

Li Laosi’s brows furrowed into a knot, and he was so worried that he didn’t pick up his rice bowl.

“Mom, what’s wrong with Fu Niu? She hasn’t drooled for a long time. She can’t wipe off the drool today no matter how hard she wipes it off?”

The old lady touched her granddaughter's forehead. She felt that it was not warm, and she felt unsure. "After dinner, I will hold Fu Niu and let Dr. Zhang take a look."

 Dongmei and Ye Shan quietly looked at each other without saying anything, just lowered their heads and ate quietly.

They do know the reason, but they can’t say it.

When Jiayin heard the words Zhang Shenyi, she thought of Uncle Cheap's head full of golden needles. She was so frightened that she immediately woke up and hugged her grandma's neck.

 “Milk, Fu Niu wants to eat meat and dumplings!”

“This girl, is she greedy for meat?” Old Mrs. Li couldn’t help but laugh and cry. She was so angry that she pinched her fat granddaughter’s face lightly, “I’ll ask your father to buy meat in the afternoon, and we’ll make dumplings in the evening.”

Li Laosi responded: "Okay, there is nothing to do in the afternoon, I will go to Xiaowang Village to have a look."

But Li Laoer started fighting, "I'll go to Xiaowang Village and buy a pig and kill it. It happens that the village also wants to divide the meat. When you have free time, go to the mountains and kill a pheasant and bring it back to make soup. Mom and Fu Niu both lost weight because they were worried about you being in danger in the mountains."

"Okay, okay, I'll be there in a moment." Li Laosi responded quickly.

 Just after finishing their meal, Li Lao Er and Li Lao Si left.

A carriage also came to the door of Li's house. Mrs. Li thought it was Mrs. Cui and Mr. Wen who sent people to deliver festive gifts, so she went out with good news.

 In the end, it was Wang Yuanwai who jumped out of the carriage.

Mrs. Li hadn't seen him for several days, so she stepped forward and asked, "Boss, have you been very busy recently? Every time I come here to get an injection, I leave, but why can't I see you?"

Wang Yuanwai stepped forward to receive the good news, gave her a small jade goldfish, and responded with a smile: "Doctor Zhang said that the injury on my head is recovering well. I have rarely had headaches recently, so I changed it to once every three days." Some business in the city is busy, so I just got some free time, so I bought some food and sent it. "

When Mrs. Li saw that the bamboo baskets that Wang Fu moved down contained either half slices of pork or whole chickens and whole fish, she felt distressed that her son had spent too much.

“Just come here and take a look. Why are you buying so many things? It’s so hard to make money, so don’t waste it like this!”

Wang Yuanwai was heart-warmed when he heard this, but he said with a smile: "It's just some crude ingredients and doesn't cost much money. Besides, this is also a thank you to Divine Doctor Zhang for treating me."

As he spoke, he personally took out a large brocade box from the carriage, "I also found a century-old ginseng. I wonder if Doctor Zhang would like it?"
