There is a dragon in my fish pond

Chapter 26 I really envy you for having a good son
"Then what should we do? We can't let our dad carry it hard."

After much deliberation, the two brothers finally decided to take this opportunity to move to Lei Jianmin's renovated farm bungalow near the fish pond.

This farmhouse bungalow has a symmetrical layout, facing north and south, with the aisle in the middle leading to the living room, the kitchen on both sides, and the bedrooms on both sides.

Let parents live in the earth kang in the east bedroom, and my two brothers live in the west bedroom. Make a plan, and the two brothers will spend part of the money to decorate the house.

Because it is close to the fish pond, in order to prevent the humidity from aggravating his father's condition, Li Yafan focused on moisture-proof measures for the house, installed a series of heating equipment, and hired a carpenter from Yushu Village next door to build two beds for the brothers. Placed in Westinghouse.

In order to prevent formaldehyde from exceeding the standard and affect the parents' health, and for the sake of cheapness, whitewash was painted on the walls.

Buying good furniture, and in order to make cooking and laundry easier for parents, Li Yafan bought washing machines, microwave ovens, color TVs and other household appliances together. The two brothers thought of everything they could think of for their parents.

After everything was arranged properly, Li Yafan couldn't wait to arrange for his parents to live in. Entering this new house, it seemed as if he had stepped into a new world.

"This new house is much brighter than our old yard."

Li Shun and his wife are like newborn children, poke here and look there.

"From now on, you two elders, just live here well. Although it is not facing the sea, it is facing the woods and gardens by the fish pond. In spring, the flowers will be warm and blooming, which is good for your health. .”

Li Shun nodded happily and looked at the pair of sons who were getting thinner day by day, with infinite love and compassion in his eyes.

"You have worked hard!"

"It's not hard work, as long as we brothers see you two elders happy, it's worth it!" Li Yaping laughed.

"These electrical appliances can save my mother a lot of energy for cooking and washing clothes. I will teach you how to use them slowly." Li Yafan pointed to the microwave oven on one side.

At this moment, the husband and wife nodded obediently like children, as if the two sons had become adults in this family.

According to the custom of the mountain village, when the new house is moved, it is customary to hold a banquet to entertain the neighbors, commonly known as "warm pot".

But Li Shun found it bothersome. Usually, the people in the Li family village had little contact with each other, so there was no need to take advantage of the favors of the villagers for such a trivial matter.

Jin Xiulian felt that this year was different than before, she was usually fed up with the same village's gossip, this time she had to show off what she said, which house in the village was as bright as her own?Among the juniors in the village, who is more promising than these two brothers?

Based on their parents' opinions, the two brothers felt that even if they didn't need to entertain the folks in the village, they always wanted to invite a few special people.

The two sons had an idea, and it was inconvenient for Jin Xiulian and Li Shun to say anything more. After all, they had two sons who were so capable, so why would they be dissatisfied?

People are not afraid of showing off, but they are afraid that they don't have the capital to show off. Hearing what his two sons said, Li Shun also changed his mind.

In the end, the two brothers drew up a list. Secretary Zhao was very busy, and he helped the Li family a lot inside and outside. This must be invited, Second Aunt Hong, although the Li family brothers did not have a good impression of her, but this I have been helping the Li family for a long time, so I have to ask for it.

There is also Lei Jianmin, there is no fishpond contracted from Lei Jianmin, where is the Li family brother today, and the second brother Li in the county, this is the great fortune of the Li family brother, they are all invited.

Seeing that it was almost noon, the family made an agreement, and Li Yaping drove to the county town to buy food, and returned with a full load in less than an hour, and brought back Li Lao Er, a fish seller in the county town.

Over there, Li Yafan first asked Aunt Hong, his mother and daughter to help with the cooking, and then Lei Jianmin and Secretary Zhao, his father and daughter. They entered the new house, and everyone was amazed.

Especially Aunt Hong, I'm afraid she was even more excited than Li Shun and Jin Xiulian.

"It's so bright, old Li, I really envy you for having a good son."

He pointed to the TV that was playing.

"This colorful person is really beautiful."

This kind of color TV is really rare in the backing village.

Secretary Zhao, the few people seemed to have seen something extraordinary, sitting in front of the color TV, looking at the beautiful advertising girl in front of them, without blinking their eyes.

In the kitchen, Jin Xiulian, Aunt Hong, Zhao Yiyue, and Hong Ling were busy in the kitchen, adding fire to the fire, chopping vegetables, and frying vegetables, each with their own division of labor.

After a while, the aroma of the dishes slowly wafted out, attracting the elders in front of the color TV, and stood at the door, swallowing, waiting for the meal.

Second Aunt Hong's mouth was busy, and in the name of tasting food, she saw some dry goods, afraid that she would not be able to eat them after a while, so she kept stuffing them into her mouth, stuffing her mouth full. Drumming, just give up.

After another half an hour, several hard dishes, steamed goose, some bought ready-made roast chicken, and some crabs were put on the table on the kang head for a long time.

Li Yaping took out the old village chief liquor bought from the county seat, scalded it with hot water, and poured it for everyone.

In late autumn, it was gradually freezing, and the north wind howled from time to time, and the kang in the house was scalding hot. After a few cups of white wine, crabs fell into his belly, and a wave of heat hit his head. Li Shun suddenly felt that he had lived most of his life. , the first time I lived so comfortably.

"Come on, Secretary, let me offer you a toast, thank you for taking care of my two boys these days"

As he spoke, he filled the wine cup in front of Secretary Zhao.

When Secretary Zhao went to the county town for a meeting, he had to deal with all kinds of dinners. He had already practiced a lot. After drinking a few cups before, he swallowed another cup with a bang. Red is out of breath.

After a few cups of hot wine, several big men ate roast chicken and crabs while chatting about homework.

"Fanzi, I heard that you still have the idea of ​​contracting the fish pond?"

Lei Jianmin asked suddenly.

"Yes, Brother Lei, do you have a way?"

Li Yafan knew that Lei Jianmin had worked in this industry before, and he had a lot of contacts, so he might have connections.

"I really have a family. Zhang Liu at the head of our village still has a few fish ponds in his hands. The business is not doing well recently. If you think it's interesting, I can help you get in touch."

"Really? If that's the case, I'll trouble you, Brother Lei."

Originally, Li Yafan was bleeding a lot due to the recent busy relocation. Lei Jianmin's words made Li Yafan overjoyed, and felt that the meal was worth it.

Soon other dishes were served, such as scrambled eggs with tomatoes, cold cucumber, pork head dipped in garlic sauce.
Li Shun felt so happy, the Li family hadn't been this lively for a long time.
