Lucky husband

At this time, old lady Li and the others got up early, Jiang Zhiyun tidied up her clothes, and went to old lady Li for advice.

After hearing Jiang Zhiyun's words, Mrs. Li was furious. How could there be such a black-hearted person? Did he think that the business of their rice noodle stall would go down and the customers would go to the next door to eat his not-so-tasty noodles?Don't be ashamed!There is so much food out there.

"Mrs. Li thought about Li Mingjin's dream, and said: The third family, please don't let the apron of our rice noodle stall be burned. As long as there is this, those stalls will be able to hold on to it in the future." If you speak ill of us, your reputation will definitely be affected."

Jiang Zhiyun nodded: "I think so too, or this time, let the gentleman come forward and catch that person on the spot when he is about to put the cloth into the jar, and see if he dares to make a bad idea in the future. "

However, Jiang Zhiyun felt that the problem this time was easy to solve. The main thing was what to do in the future. If it happened once, there would be a second time.

There are only those who are thieves for a thousand days, and there are no ones who can guard against thieves for a thousand days. They have Brother Jin's dream to remind them, but if Brother Jin doesn't dream one time, wouldn't they have to let those black-hearted people get their wish.

After thinking about it, Jiang Zhiyun had another idea: "Mom, our rice noodle business is good, but it's not stable if we only set up a stall. If it rains, we won't be able to set up a stall. I'm thinking about waiting for my elder brother and the others to come back today to discuss with them. If you don’t buy a shop in the county, the rice noodle business in the shop will definitely be better.”

"Get a shop?" Mrs. Li frowned. The shop is not cheap, and the family probably doesn't have that much money to buy it. If it is replaced by rent, it will be a big expense, and she thinks it is not worth it.

"We'll talk about the shop when the eldest brother and the others come back in the afternoon. The most urgent thing is to go to the county town to prevent the fire from burning." Jiang Zhiyun saw that Mrs. Li didn't agree, and changed the subject.

Jiang Zhiyun felt that her elder brother was assertive and courageous, and her mother said that it would be better to wait for the eldest brother and the others to come back and talk directly with the eldest brother and sister-in-law, the effect might be better.

Speaking of the fire that will start later, Granny Li's attention was diverted. She thought of the last time the third child came back and said that he would be a little busy during this time.

Because the end of the year is approaching, the little bastards and gangsters who have no money in their hands will start to find ways to earn some money to spend. The people in their county government have been busy maintaining order in the county recently, and there are still many people who have returned to their hometowns to record In the register, Mrs. Li felt that it would be bad to go to the third child for the matter of the stall at home, in case the business was delayed.

After Mrs. Li shared her concerns with Jiang Zhiyun, Jiang Zhiyun also remembered what Xianggong said that he would be a little busy recently, and there was really no need to let Xianggong go to the rice noodle stall.

After thinking about it for a while, Mrs. Li decided to ask her old man to go to the county seat and wait there. Seeing that the time was almost up, she kept an eye on her stall, waiting to catch the noodle seller.

The mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law reached an agreement, Jiang Zhiyun went to the kitchen to work on breakfast, and the old lady Li took the old man to tell her what Jiang Zhiyun came to talk to her just now. He wanted to catch the salesman who was about to make trouble.

Old man Li was more angry than old lady Li when he heard about this incident, because old man Li and old lady Li had slightly different ideas on how to treat their grandson's education.

At the beginning, it was Mrs. Li who proposed to send her two grandchildren to study. She just wanted the children to learn how to read and learn. A certain shop works as an apprentice for a living.

Later, both Li Mingde and Li Mingli were admitted to Tongsheng. Granny Li felt very good and satisfied. When Li Mingli proposed that he stop studying and go to a bookstore as an apprentice, she did not object, nor did she have any expectations for Li Mingde. Becomes high.

At the beginning, old man Li also had the same idea as Mrs. Li to send his two grandsons to the county school, but when both grandsons passed the Tongsheng examination, his expectations for the two grandsons increased.

When Li Mingli said that he didn't want to study, the old man Li was lost for a while, and then he put all his hopes on Li Mingde, hoping that Li Mingde could study hard, so that the old Li's family could have a chance to change their families and honor their ancestors.

Old man Li's expectation of Li Mingde stems from the different ways of thinking between men and women. Women usually only plan and think about the life of the family. They are satisfied if they can live in harmony and have land, house and money in their hands. And men will want to have higher achievements.

Farming is to fill the stomach, which is the most important thing for old man Li, and the eldest family sells rice noodles to make money is an important source of money for their family. Only when they have money can they send their grandson to study and rely on imperial examinations. This is another matter. One thing that was equally important to him.

If there were no rice noodle stalls, it would be very difficult for these mud-legged people to pay for a scholar to rely on the imperial examination all the way, not to mention the travel expenses for each exam, or the money that would be handed over to the court for each exam.

So when old man Li heard that someone was trying to sabotage the business of their rice noodle stall, he wished he could go to the county seat immediately to find out the bad guy.

Mrs. Li stopped him: "It's still early, everyone said it was almost noon, it's useless if you go early, wait until you have breakfast before going out, I happen to pack some things and you carry them back The county seat is for Lao San and Mingli, it’s so cold, the two of them should be more careful outside.”

After a hurried breakfast in a hurry, old man Li couldn't wait to carry the basket of things that old lady Li had packed for him and went out.

There are two things in this basket, two thin jackets made of new cotton and four pairs of thick insoles, half of each for Li Chengshi and Li Mingli.

Li Chengshi had to wear the uniform clothes issued by the county government when he worked in the county government. If Mrs. Li made him a thick jacket, it wouldn't fit under or outside the servant's clothes, so she had to use this year's new clothes with Jiang Zhiyun. Cotton made a thin jacket that was warm enough for Li Chengshi to wear under his errand clothes, so as not to freeze him.

As for Li Mingli, he works in a bookstore, and the people who welcome and see off are gentle scholars. Naturally, he has to dress more elegantly. He can't be like a country boy wearing layers of clothes in a mess like a ball. His jacket is also made of Made of new cotton, the thin one is warmer than the thick and thick old cotton, and it looks lighter.

Not only Li Chengshi and Li Mingli had new jackets, but Li Mingde, old man Li, and old lady Li also had new cotton jackets.

Li Mingde is cheap, similar to Li Mingli, because he basically goes to Mr. Zhang to study every day, and his family is not too poor to afford more decent clothes, so naturally he has to make a copy for him.

Old man Li and old lady Li have thicker jackets. They are the elders of the family, and all the juniors should respect them. Naturally, they should give them a share of new clothes. They feel comfortable wearing the filial clothes of their sons and daughters-in-law. stick.

In fact, the money in the hands of the Li family has gradually increased in the past two years. It is not impossible to make new jackets for everyone in the family with new cotton, but after discussion, Jiang Zhiyun and Old Madam Li only made a few pieces.

For example, Li Chengzhi and the others were going out to sell rice noodles, and they were reluctant to wear out the new jackets they made. They would be very distressed if they got dirty. They kept burning charcoal next to the casserole every day, and it was very warm, so there was no need to make new ones.

Jiang Zhiyun is because her jackets are always well preserved, and she doesn't go out very much, so the jackets made in the past two years are still warm to wear this year, so there is no need to make new ones.

In this way, there are only three little guys left, Li Mingjin, Li Mingyue, and Li Mingkang. The kids are on fire, and they are too cold to be hot. It's warm enough already.

Although not everyone has a new cotton jacket, everyone has a share of thick insoles. As the old saying goes, cold starts from the feet, and as long as the feet are warm, the body can also be warmed up.

Considering that the insoles will get wet after the feet sweat, the thick insoles of the family members are two pairs per person, and it is warmer to wear them differently.

The old man Li, who went out with a basket on his back, walked fast on the road, and it was hard to tell that he was an old man in his 50s. It was precisely because of his fast walking that when he arrived at the county town, the morning guests hadn't finished eating.

Far away from his rice noodle stall, old man Li looked up at the sky, and decided to deliver the things for his son and grandson first, and then hurry up and come back to wait for arrest.

The bookstore that old man Li went to first, if it wasn’t for Xiu Mu Shifen Bookstore, there would hardly be any customers. Old man Li saw Li Mingli when he went there, took out the things he brought to him, turned around and planned to leave, without saying much.

In Li's house, the old man Li talked the least except for Li Chengli. Li Mingli didn't think it was strange that he didn't talk to him when he came to deliver things, but he saw someone selling a novel candy on the street two days ago and he bought it. Hurry up and ask his grandfather to wait, he has something for him to take home.

There is no salary for Li Mingli's apprenticeship in the bookstore. His money is in exchange for copying books or rewards from others. Most of them are from copying books. In order to buy this new candy, he saved his own money for several months at a time. Sex ran out.

Old man Li was thinking about something, and after Li Mingli gave him the things, he didn't open them or ask questions, but only told Li Mingli to do a good job.

Seeing that his grandfather seemed to be speaking in a hurry, Li Mingli suddenly felt a little strange, wondering if something happened at home, and thought that he would ask the shopkeeper to take a leave of absence to go home and have a look in two days.

Old man Li was really in a hurry. He was worried that there would be problems at the rice noodle stall when he went back late, so he didn't even see anyone when he delivered something to Li Chengshi, and just asked the guards at the door to transfer the things to Li Chengshi, saying that he would not disturb them. down to business.

It wasn't the first time that old man Li came back to the county government. The guards all knew that he was Li Chengshi's father, so when the man handed over the things to Li Chengshi, he mentioned that his father came here in a hurry.

Li Chengshi also had the same doubts as Li Mingli. In the past, when his father went to the county government to give him something, no matter whether he was in a hurry or not, he would wait for him to come and say a few words. There was a precedent of leaving without giving something.

Old man Li hurried back to the rice noodle stall after sending out the things that should be delivered. At this moment, the guests in the morning had completely left. Li Chengzhi and the others seized the time to sit on the stool to talk and rest for a while.

After thinking about it, old man Li didn't go over. He sat down at a tea stall beside him, ordered a pot of hot tea, and kept staring there.

Staring at the side, old man Li quickly noticed the noodle seller. The noodle seller was next to their rice noodle stall. He stood up and touched the cloth around the rice noodle stall, and looked at the trolley for a while. , On the side of the casserole, bad things have obviously been brewing for a while.

Old man Li's heart rose, and he looked at the man without blinking, ready to rush over and catch him at any time.

The short rest time passed quickly. People who went out of the city early in the morning and had to return to the city at ten o'clock at noon came in one after another. In this cold weather, they spent a whole morning outside, and what they wanted most was to have a meal. For a steaming meal, the rice noodles not far from the gate of the city is a good choice, so the rice noodle stalls are starting to get busy.

Noticing that Bai Xiuhe had replaced the charcoal, old man Li couldn't sit still anymore, his buttocks had left the stool, as if he could rush over at any time.

All the preparations were useful. When the noodle seller quietly moved the pot containing the waste charcoal, old man Li immediately ran to the rice noodle stall.

The old man Li moved very fast, ran over quickly, ruthlessly, and accurately, and grabbed the hand of the noodle seller. At this moment, the noodle seller was holding a corner of the fabric and stuffing it into the jar.

If it had been a little later, he would have successfully put the fabric into the jar and ignited it, and then the things in Brother Jin's dream would have happened.

Bai Xiuhe was busy cooking rice noodles in front of the casserole. She only blinked when she caught a glimpse of a person passing by in front of her casserole, and then stopped at the side of her stall.

Feeling that something was wrong, Bai Xiuhe raised her head and took a closer look, and suddenly realized that the person who came over was actually her father-in-law. She stared blankly at old man Li and asked, "Father, have you come to the county?"
