Be nice, my baby

Chapter 15

……

Seeing that Liu Qiang's face showed a pampering look that didn't match his age again, Liu's mother swallowed all the rest of her words, remembering how hardworking and sensible her child was usually.

After dinner, Liu Qiang sent Li Wan back and talked about renting a house by the way.

"It's enough for Daddy Li to send firewood once a month, and tonight I will collect Xiaowan's things first..." Liu Qiang confessed.

Old man Li agreed again and again, and followed Liu Qiang back to discuss with Liu's mother. The firewood, rice and oil will be provided by Li's old man, the cotton family will provide two beds, and the rent will be provided by Liu's mother. His mother came over and said that she wanted to add money to live with him. Since this was the case, the three adults decided to go to the town early tomorrow to have a look.

"Tomorrow we will come to your house to call you!" Ma Kai's mother repeatedly explained before leaving.

Mama Liu had no choice but to chase her out of the house...

After Liu Qiang left, Mrs. Wang tidied up a room and came out. The double bed and cabinets inside were all ready-made, and only the quilt on the bed was put away.

Adding Ma Kai, Mrs. Wang insisted that she would charge another ten yuan a month, and they had to prepare the bed themselves.

"The children have to do their homework, so why don't you put a table and a few benches!" Ma Kai's mother walked around the room. The room is relatively large, and it is absolutely no problem to put another single bed.

Mrs. Wang went to other rooms while thinking about it, "Come and move it yourself!"

Next, after giving the money to Mrs. Wang, the three of them moved the cabinet out to wash it, put it outside to dry, cleaned every corner of the house, hurried back, borrowed a donkey, and pulled the board. The car dragged the cotton wool, Ma Kai's single bed, and the clothes of several children, etc., and it was not until the evening that they settled down all the things of the three children.

"...Do your homework first when you come back at night, be careful when you burn the fire, and come back to get it if you run out of money..." Ma Kai's mother kept explaining while sitting on the bed.

Several parents made several trips and brought all the firewood, rice, oil, etc., and picked all kinds of vegetables from the vegetable garden. At night, the children can start the fire by themselves. Liu Ma even took a piece of bacon and handed it over secretly. Gave it to Liu Qiang.

At that time, the oil eaten in the countryside was squeezed from the rapeseed grown by the family in small private workshops in the village. It tasted very strong and the color was not good-looking, but it was definitely healthy and cost-effective; the food was not worth much, and it was very generous to take it out; All the firewood was cut down from the nearby mountains. As long as it took some time and effort, the adults didn't care about these things.

"We also brought a coal stove over here and put it in the kitchen. You need to use it in winter. You don't want to mix the coal you bought with Mrs. Wang's..." Old Man Li warned.

Before leaving, Liu's mother and Lao Ma's wife both stuffed some money for their children. Old man Li thought about it, took out a neatly tied cloth bag from his inside pocket, and counted two yuan. Money change.

"Be good, if you start a fight at night, you can buy him two candies!"

"I have candies here!" Liu Qiang shook his head, not going to pick up the change from old man Li.

"Why do you say that! Take it, Li Wan is still young, there is always money to be spent..." Old man Li took Liu Qiang's hand and stuffed it.

Liu Qiang waved his hands back to hide, but also declined.

"Qiang, then, Daddy Li will take it for you!" Mama Liu said quickly.

"Brother Qiang!" Li Wan looked both ways, ran over with a "thump", took the money from old man Li and stuffed it into Liu Qiang's pocket, leaving two cents, five cents and ten cents on the ground.

"Hey, you!" Liu Qiang knelt down and picked them up one by one, "Daddy Li, I understand, you guys go back quickly, wait until it gets dark!"

The three adults worriedly explained the number of children several times, and talked to Mrs. Wang for a long time, and asked Mrs. Wang to help look at these things on weekdays, etc., before leaving.

"Woo - finally left!" Ma Kai fell on the bed with his limbs wide open, and said loudly, "Great!"

"My bed, Brother Qiang's!" Li Wan saw it, and ran over to beat Ma Kai's thigh and shouted.

"Get up, you can't get on our bed if you don't wash up, hurry up and do your homework, we have to cook later!" Liu Qiang shouted standing at the door.

"Hmm..." Ma Kai turned over and struggled to stand up.

"Be careful!" Liu Qiang rushed up quickly to support Li Wan who fell backwards led by Ma Kai.

"Oops!" Ma Kai yelled, taking a step to the side.

"Go away!" Li Wan leaned on Liu Qiang and kicked him out reluctantly.

"Okay, okay!" Liu Qiang hugged him up and shouted.

Li Wan glanced at Liu Qiang timidly, and his limbs, which had been flaring their teeth and claws just now, have settled down. If someone saw him at this time, they wouldn't think he was a kid who could kick people!

"Do your homework, Ma Kai!" Liu Qiang hugged Li Wan and sat at the table and said loudly.

Ma Kai, who was laughing to himself, also froze, flipping through his schoolbag feebly.

After Liu Qiang taught Li Wan a few additions and subtractions, he took out a pen and paper for Li Wan to draw and play, and began to solve his homework quickly...

After living in the town for less than a month, Li Wan’s rosy face returned. Liu Qiang is always willing to eat, and he goes to the vegetable market to buy meat dishes almost every other day. There is no meal with only one dish. , the most important thing is that Liu Qiang prepared according to Li Wan's hobbies.

"Qiangzi, I want to eat bones. I'll buy some bones and cook radishes tomorrow!" Ma Kai said while washing his feet.

Liu Qiang agreed, and silently calculated this month's expenses in his heart. It is obviously not enough to rely on the little money given by a few adults. In this way...

Never underestimate a demon king who has experienced bloody storms, even if it is only a small strand of consciousness that has escaped, even if it has been seriously out of touch with this society... and a child who has merged with this strand of smoke will definitely be different from ordinary children !

After Liu Qiang carefully checked the situation in the town, he quickly had an idea in his mind.

The junior high school in the town is divided into two types of students: day students and residential students. There are self-study classes every morning and evening. Under the pressure of the senior high school entrance examination, the evening self-study classes are also taught by teachers seriously. Resident students have an hour to go to the school cafeteria to eat before evening self-study. , and the cafeteria is not open to day students who have not paid rice, and day students can go back to eat, but not all day students can run back and forth within an hour to bring food, many children in neighboring villages only I can buy some snacks at the school canteen first, and then go back to eat at night...

Near the junior high school, there is only a steamed stuffed bun shop opposite the school gate, and there are no other food supply places.

"Ma Kai, get some charcoal to ignite the stove while the fire is burning!" Liu Qiang put the rice on first, sat aside to pick vegetables, and explained to Ma Kai who was putting firewood.

"Oh, the stove is going to be raised today, isn't it quite cold?" Ma Kai skillfully picked up a large piece of red charcoal and asked...
