"Okay, okay, it's not easy for the second child's family. He is still a brother-in-law who has come to the door. It is kind enough to help us," Li Laoyao said pointing at Sang Huai, alluding to Li Changfeng's family. It wasn't that there was no food, but that Xu Qing didn't give it, "It's getting late, you should go back quickly, or the family will have to wait in a hurry."

Li Changfeng didn't refute too much. After saying goodbye to the Li family, he drove his donkey, which was not at all thin, and went home while the moon was still shining.

"Ah, the donkey is so fat." Li Laosan's little brother tugged at the corner of Li Wang's clothes, his little face was full of covetousness, the child didn't understand what a drought was, but he knew what could be eaten on the table these days There are fewer and fewer things, and there are not many days when you can eat enough.

Youngest Li came back to his senses, touched the child's head, and then looked at Li Wang's face, which had been thinned these days, full of guilt and distress. Brother Li went back to the room, locked the door, and looked down. He was rummaging through the cabinet at the end of the bed for something.

When Li Changfeng came home, Xu Qing had already fallen asleep completely, because he was afraid that his movements would disturb Xu Qing, so Li Changfeng cleaned up lightly and climbed into bed. Although it was summer, the temperature at night was still a little bit low , As soon as Li Changfeng went to bed, Xu Qing followed the source of heat and leaned over.

Li Changfeng gently hugged Xu Qing, put his hand on Xu Qing's four-month-old stomach, and stroked it gently. The baby will be born in six months, and it will be the beginning of spring next year. I just hope that God will open his eyes, the rain will come earlier, and the child will live more comfortably.

A few days later, Xie Ah Mo came to chat, "I went back to Jixiang Village yesterday, do you know what happened in that village?" Because he bought enough food in advance, Xie Ah Mo was not Very sad, I often come to chat with Xu Qing when I have nothing to do.

"What's the matter at this time?" In the famine year, everyone must be somewhat worried, Xu Qing really didn't know what was worth discussing.

Xie Amo couldn't understand Xu Qing's thoughts, "Don't look at the drought and famine now, no one talks about it, this person, when he is free, he just gathers together and chats about everything!"

Xu Qing moved his body a few times, and then sat down with his increasingly heavy body, "Then you should talk about it quickly, and don't make people hungry."

Li Changfeng wandered around, Xie Amo was not afraid that he would hear, "It's not the third son of the Li family."

It turned out that Li Laosan's ambition in his heart had not been realized, and the family had a large population and very little food. If he continued to work like this, not to mention the children, even the adults might starve to death, so he discussed with Li Laosan, He wants to teach!

I even went to Li Zheng's house for this matter, and Li Zheng was also very helpless. In the early years, the villagers watched and pointed at him to teach, but he just thought he was noble and didn't want to. Now, the villagers all Most of them can't get enough to eat, and he wants to teach again!

"I don't need any money, just some food every month." After Li Laosan finished speaking, Li Zheng asked, "Do you think the food or the money is more important now?"

The price of rice in the town is skyrocketing. How much food can this farmer buy with that little money? No one else can eat enough. It's really beautiful to want others to exchange money for food.

Li Laosan was a little embarrassed, so he didn't answer the question, just sat there and didn't leave. Just thinking about it, he informed the villagers that Li Laosan would teach the children to read outside the village's ancestral hall, and he wanted to send the children there , let’s go, as for Shu Xiu, the life is not easy now, just make sense.

"What's the result? Has anyone sent their children there?" Xu Qing was really curious about whether anyone would send their children to study. Such an opportunity is in front of everyone. Although everyone's life is not very satisfactory now, such an opportunity is also very good. It's worth it, the things handed in are much less than in the stable period.

Xie Amo's expression was also a little surprised, "At the beginning, there was no one there, but I heard that there are more than ten families sending their children to send their children, and they are all corned buns, which is not easy. I thought that Mr. Li Three would not accept it, but in the end, the unexpected ones were all accepted.”

Xu Qing nodded thoughtfully.That's right, now the Li family's yard probably has nothing left except for the food that Li Changfeng sent over that day. The whole family has to eat, and Li Laosan just doesn't want to, so there's no way to refuse it.

"Daughter-in-law! I'll go to Li's yard! My brother is gone!"

Li Changfeng ran home as soon as he saw it, followed by Boss Li.

"Gone?"

Xu Qing stood up and asked suspiciously, Boss Li hurried forward and explained: "It's just that there are a few less clothes, and we were not at home yesterday, we all thought we came to you, and we didn't come back today, so I came to see ..."

Li Changfeng finished the donkey cart, and didn't say much, "I'll look for it, thank you, Ah Qing, please take care of it, daughter-in-law, I'm leaving."

"Why are you being polite to me, go ahead and go," Xie Ah Mo felt that it was a big deal when she heard that, the disappearance of the unmarried brother was a big deal!

"Go ahead, don't worry about me."

Xu Qing wanted to follow her to find it, but she was powerful but powerless!

Xie Ama pulled Xu Qing to sit down, and said in bewilderment: "This Li family is really big-hearted, this brother hasn't been home for almost two days, and now he's just trying to find someone, isn't it a waste of time!"

Xu Qing thought about what Boss Li said, that when the person left, some clothes were also taken away, which meant that the younger brother stole it secretly by himself. Thinking about it like this, Xu Qing was a little less worried, but thought again in a blink of an eye, What if little brother Li followed another guy...!This matter is no less than his own sneaking away!

Xie Amo also had such thoughts in her heart, but she didn't say it too much. The brother's thoughts now are different from theirs at that time, and they have more thoughts.

Li Changfeng took Boss Li back to Jixiang Village, but there was still no one at home, so he went to several houses in the village to inquire about the brothers who usually get along with Brother Li a lot, but they didn't find out why.

"correct!"

Boss Li suddenly remembered something and said to Li Changfeng: "I remember my brother often went to Zhou's house to look for Chen Hong these days!"

"Why is Chen Hong at Zhou's house?" Li Changfeng was said to be confused, shouldn't he go to Chen's house to find Chen Hong?Why did I go to Zhou's house to look for it.

Boss Li patted his thigh and said, "This Chen Hong is married to that guy from the Zhou family! No, it's a bad year, and there's nothing serious about it. It's normal if you don't know."

So Li Changfeng and Boss Li went to Zhou's house again. Chen Hong was doing embroidery work under the eaves. Although Zhou Wen was selected as a scholar, his family was not well-off. He could earn some trivial money by embroidering handkerchiefs because of his good craftsmanship, otherwise he would sell them If you don't go out, you won't be able to eat food these days, so how many people will buy it.

Li Changfeng knocked on the courtyard door, Chen Hong put down his work and opened the door, "Brother Li, Brother Changfeng." Chen Hong didn't expect Li Changfeng to come to him, just like Li Changfeng didn't expect Chen Hong to be so silent It's the same as marrying Zhou Wen.

Li Changfeng saw that although Chen Hong had lost some weight, he was not haggard, and he didn't suffer any grievances when he came to the Zhou family. Well, it's not very appropriate for the two of them to go in.

In order to save time, Li Changfeng explained the purpose of coming straight to the point. Chen Hong lowered his head and thought for a while, "He has been here a few times, he doesn't talk as much as before, and he feels that his temper has become much calmer." He also knew a little bit about Li's ear accident Some, "But the last time he came, there was some meaning of parting in his words, but he didn't say much about it."

Li Changfeng and Boss Li had no choice but to thank Chen Hong and planned to go to the town to ask acquaintances to see if they had seen Brother Li. Knowing that people's words are scary, she gave a few instructions before leaving, and Chen Hong complied with them one by one.

"Don't worry, I know the seriousness of this matter. Goodbye, brother Changfeng." Goodbye, the deepest and deepest you in my heart.

Chen Hong didn't close the courtyard door until Li Changfeng and the others were no longer in sight, and Zhou Wen, who had been hiding next to Li Changfeng and the others in the corner, came out, stared at the courtyard door of his own house, and cleared everything. Throat, open the courtyard door.

"I am back."

After Li Changfeng and Boss Li arrived in the town, they split up to find someone to ask. The first place Li Changfeng asked was Lin Fangliang, and he was also the first to get the news of Li's brother's whereabouts.

"Did you say he went to the Deng family in the town to take care of the sick youngest?"

Lin Fangliang nodded, "Miao Deng is the only one in that family. Ama Deng's family has gone to do business in another town, and there is no one to take care of the family. No, I was looking for someone to take care of Miao Deng in those days, but Mr. Deng I don’t want to do anything, just happened that little brother Li came to get the medicine, Deng Amo talked about it, so little brother Li said he would try it.”

Seeing that Li Changfeng's face calmed down, Lin Fangliang continued: "Who would have thought that I really agreed to go to the old lady Deng, so I asked Li Xiaoge to prepare to come to the town for a few days, and live and eat with the old lady Deng, and the wages are paid. A month is 450 Wen, which is considered very generous in this period.”

Lin Fangliang really didn't know that Brother Li came out alone without even notifying his family, "Don't worry, this Deng family is also a real person. Although the business is not very big, they are quite honest. There is no man, but the place where he lives is close to the government, and the public security is good. Little Brother Li takes care of Mr. Deng's three meals a day, takes medicine, relieves worries and relieves boredom, which is much better than him being unhappy at home."

No one would want to meet someone who almost ruined their entire life, at least for the time being.

"Then trouble you to lead the way, I'll go and see him." Li Changfeng felt less worried when he knew where Brother Li was going, but he still had to meet someone so that he could learn more, so he really felt relieved.

"Okay, let's go."

Although the house of the Deng family is not big, it is quite compact. Young brother Li stood in front of the expressionless Li Changfeng, "Second brother, I really didn't mean it. I originally packed up the things that day and wanted to bring them here first. He promised me that he could come directly, but the youngest Deng had a fever that afternoon, and there was no one at home, so I had no choice but to leave him alone, so... ".

"You've scared us terribly. You're such a grown-up, you should know what's big, what's small, and what the consequences are!" Li Changfeng scolded Li, and Li also listened obediently, from time to time He nodded his head to show that he was indeed wrong.

But after Li Changfeng finished speaking, Brother Li still said, "You and Second Brother are the only ones who are scared..."

Li Changfeng glared at Little Brother Li, "What are you talking about! Big brother is looking for you everywhere today!"

Little brother Li stopped talking, and drooped his head, feeling bored, Li Changfeng sighed, "Okay, Lin Fangliang also told me something about the situation here, and besides, I just met Mrs. Deng, so I feel at ease." , will you go back with us and make it clear, or I will go back and say it for you."

Brother Li immediately chose the second option, "Thank you second brother! You are so kind!"

"Go home and have a look if you have nothing to do. After all, you are not married yet, and you still have to do some things." Li Changfeng felt like he was messing with his mind. Did he already know how to be a father before his child came out? How difficult it is.

"Understood, and I'm also thinking about the situation at home. If I do more things, the family won't be so tight." Brother Li knew about the food problem at home, and the three little ones would argue about not having enough food every time. , the little one is ignorant and still wants to eat meat, he also feels uncomfortable watching it.

"Okay, let's go back. I'll go and find my elder brother, and I'll make it clear when I get back." Li Changfeng asked Li's younger brother to go back, and he and Lin Fangliang, who was waiting outside, looked for his elder brother on the street.

By the time Li Changfeng and Boss Li returned to the Li family's yard, it was almost evening. After hearing Li Changfeng's words, the Li family and his wife were all excited.

"Is this true?! My little brother really went to take care of that person! Then what's the salary like?!" The most excited Li Laoxiao asked Li Changfeng one after another.
