Leisurely Farmer's Family: A Strong Man and His Broken Leg Son-in-law

Chapter 264 How much does an escort earn in January?

Everyone was shocked when they heard that Li Dongsheng wanted to enter the mountain.

Cuifeng Mountain is tall and majestic, with undulating mountains. The place where their village usually conducts activities is considered the outermost area.

Even in the outermost areas, you can occasionally encounter wild boars and other wild animals, and few people set foot in the deep mountains. Even the most powerful hunters only dare to explore the edges of the mountains.

When I heard that Li Dongsheng went into the mountains, I naturally didn't take it for granted that he went into the mountains to cut firewood or collect some mountain products.

I heard that Li Dongsheng learned hunting skills from Xu Hong, maybe he went into the mountains just to hunt wild animals.

Liu Yu's eyes were shining, but no matter how hard he tried, his grandpa and grandma would never let him go into the mountain. When he heard that Li Dongsheng was going to go into the mountain, he felt nothing but admiration and envy.

"Brother Dongsheng, please be careful. It's not peaceful in the mountains. I heard a few years ago that there were big tigers!"

Liu Yu remembered what she heard about evil tigers coming down the mountain to eat people when she was a child, and reminded her hurriedly.

Li Dongsheng's eyes flashed and he said: "Those were the famines in the early years. Someone dragged the child away and lied that it was eaten by a tiger!"

Out of the corner of her eye, Liu Meixiang looked over and said hurriedly: "I'm not going into the mountains to hunt tigers, I'm just hunting some foxes!"

When Liu Yu and others heard that he was not going to hunt tigers, they were slightly relieved. Yes, tigers are so easy to hunt. The mountains are so big and tigers are not everywhere. Let alone hunting, it is difficult to encounter them. .

After saying this, Li Dongsheng stood up and said goodbye. Before leaving, he put a large handful of copper coins on the table, saying they were just for food.

Liu Yu and others refused to accept it, but Li Dongsheng could not give it to his brothers, so they had no choice but to take it back.

There were no guests at this time. Liu Yan and Zhao Tianyu were worried about their two children, so they went back with Li Dongsheng.

As soon as the three people left, everyone started talking about the escort.

Du Liuyunxiang said nothing and walked towards the silent Liumeixiang. When he saw her sitting on the small bamboo stool at the entrance of the restaurant and watching the fire, she couldn't help but sigh, but she didn't know where to start.

She was only two years younger than Liu Meixiang. Although Liu Meixiang was tight-lipped and never said a word to her, her father, Liu Maolin, had a bad temper and scolded Li Dong for missing his own daughter.

Although Xu Hong stopped shouting and scolding, the words and sentences revealed were enough for Liu Yunxiang to piece together. She was young at that time and didn't understand much.

As a wife and mother these years, I am very clear about Liu Maolin's yelling and scolding when he is in a hurry.

The eldest sister's life in the Wu family was very miserable. In the dead of night, she also thought about whether it would be much better if the eldest sister married Li Dongsheng that day.

Li Dongsheng has no parents, only a sick grandma who takes medicine all year round. There are patients in the family, and no amount of money is enough to pay for it, so life is inevitably tight.

The days of poverty will soon pass. The sarcastic words and cynicism over the years are probably more annoying than not having enough to eat and not having enough clothes to wear.

Liu Yunxiang felt melancholy and couldn't calm down. The Li Dongsheng he had just met was tall and brave, with good features and a clean and upright person.

He is also capable and will save a fortune in the future, so he will not have to worry about getting married.

Wu Ping has a lovely wife and young child in his arms, and his stepdaughter has got into a good marriage, so he will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of his life.

Li Dongsheng is down-to-earth and capable, and people are also heading towards higher places.

The eldest sister was left alone and stayed where she was.

"Why are you looking at me like this!"

Liu Meixiang turned around and saw her sister staring at her with red eyes, and couldn't help but smile.

"Sister, I have nothing to ask for in this life, I only hope that you...!"

Liu Yunxiang wanted to say, I just hope you have a loved one to rely on, but compared with the eldest sister's current situation of being alone, it was like a knife.

Liu Yunxiang smiled and said, "I just hope that eldest sister will be happy every day!"

"Do you want to see how screwed up your face is? In the past few months, I have been unhappy every day. After a few days of building a house, I will be even happier!"

Liu Meixiang and Liu Yunxiang have the same mother, and they grew up in the same place. They are very emotionally close. Liu Meixiang understands her sister's unfulfilled intentions.

After saying that, he smiled at Liu Yunxiang and expressed that he was very good.

It's getting late, and the streets are already deserted.

Liu Yu urged a few people to go back quickly.

It's almost late spring, and the days are much longer than winter. Shuangqiao Town is not that far from home, so there's no need to worry about walking at night.

In the next few days, except for Liu Yu and Chang Sheng who kept guarding the stall, Liu Fan and the others left early and came back late.

Only Zhao Tianyu has to feed her baby, so she usually goes home alone after the busiest period. Fortunately, the two of them only sell dumplings, which are wrapped in advance and cooked directly after the customers order.

Liu Yan alone, coupled with Chang Sheng's help, can also be busy.

Five days passed by in a flash, and on the last day of the sixth day of the lunar month, there were already fewer people. As soon as noon passed, everyone packed up their pots, bowls, clay ovens, tables, chairs, benches and other items.

Waiting for Liu Maolin, Liu Maoye, Xu Hong and Qi Chunhua to push the cart borrowed from the village, together with the carts pushed by Liu Yu and several other carts, they filled seven full carts before they made their grand return trip.

Back in the village, each family returned the borrowed tables, chairs, benches, clay stoves and other items one by one.

Although the weather was not that hot, Liu Yu felt sticky and uncomfortable after not taking a shower for several days.

Nian had already boiled two large pots of water and finished his work. Liushan couldn't wait any longer, so he took out the tub and mixed the water to take a bath.

After washing herself from head to toe and putting on clean clothes, Liu Yu felt that she was alive.

Before it got dark, Liu Yu hurriedly rubbed Chang Sheng in the bathtub, packed up the clothes the two of them had changed in the past few days, put them in the basin, and went to the river.

The river is wide and clear, and the locust trees, poplars and willows planted on both sides have lush leaves, and the leaves have changed from light green to dark green.

As the branches and leaves sway, a cool evening breeze comes.

It’s almost summer!

"Ayu, wash your clothes!"

He Shengniang had already washed her clothes and was wringing out water one by one. When she saw Liu Yu approaching, she hurriedly made way for the stone slab.

"Well, Auntie washes a lot of clothes!"

"Yes, He Sheng's wife is pregnant and it's hard to bend down!"

He Shengniang smiled happily.

In February, Hesheng got married. The girl's family was not well-off, so she did not ask for a banquet, but hoped for a larger betrothal gift. Although Hesheng's mother was unhappy, she still complied. When she received the bride, she only set off a bunch of firecrackers as a wedding gift.

When Liu Yu heard about it, she hurriedly said congratulations.

"Don't make any noise, it's only been more than a month, the little baby has a weak soul, don't run away in shock!"

When Liu Yu saw He Sheng's mother smiling so hard, her mouth twitched, and she was a little speechless. You should keep your mouth tighter. While asking people to keep silent, she couldn't control her mouth.

Thinking that He Shengniang was probably crazy with joy, she just nodded in agreement.

"By the way, I heard that Dongsheng found a job in the county. I heard from his sister-in-law that she is a bodyguard. You are more knowledgeable than us. Do you know how much a bodyguard can earn in a month?"
