Scumbag Handbook

After Zhang Lijuan looked at him for a while, she turned around and left the main room without repeating herself.

Just as Li Hongbing was about to catch up, Mrs. Li grabbed his arm.

"She, she doesn't have a wild man yet? Red soldier, don't be confused! She didn't dare to say such things in the past!"

Mrs. Li and Old Man Li were also shocked by Zhang Lijuan's words.

You must know that in their minds, in their previous era, even if there were more fights and quarrels, there would be no divorce. One is outsiders watching jokes, and the other is dragging their children. The original is good.

Li Hongbing was a little lost, his eyes followed Zhang Lijuan's figure all the time.

"We didn't treat her badly, and the Red Soldier treated her even better," the old man Li agreed with his wife's words, "Red Soldier, she must have something outside, otherwise she wouldn't talk about divorce, you should immediately go to your old man's house to ask clear!"

"Why are you asking! Just scold at the door!" Mrs. Li's voice was as shrill as a hen, "You were not allowed to marry back, but you insisted on marrying her! Now you know what kind of person she is?"

"Mom, stop talking."

Li Hongbing's mind is in a mess now, he believes in Zhang Lijuan, but what happened to make Zhang Lijuan change so much, he really wants to know.

"Listen to me, first go to your old man's house to ask clearly."

Old man Li was urging him while taking out the pipe.

Li Hongbing went out of the main room, but Zhang Lijuan was nowhere to be seen. He yelled twice, but what he got was old lady Li's scolding.

After thinking about it, he went out anyway.

Not long after passing by Xiao's house, on a small road, by chance, I ran into Mo Cheng.

Mo Cheng was carrying a bamboo basket that didn't match his appearance at all, and said he was going to cut some bamboo knots to make things.

"Brother Hongbing, where are you going?"

I didn't take a hoe, so I didn't go to work in the field.

Li Hongbing didn't really want to see him, those words last night kept turning in his mind like a curse, and something happened early this morning that he had never thought of, and now he is still a little dazed.

"Go to my husband's house to see."

When he reacted, he had already spoken.

Seeing Mo Cheng's expression was even more strange, Li Hongbing secretly scolded himself for being too ignorant, saying what he had.

"You... just go to the old man's house empty-handed?"

Mo Cheng looked strange because the other party was empty-handed, and was still wearing work clothes, which were dirty and had a patch on them.

Li Hongbing was taken aback, and followed Mo Cheng's gaze to look at his hands and the clothes on his body, feeling extremely ashamed.

"I, I have something urgent, I'm leaving first!"

He wanted to know what happened to Zhang Lijuan when she returned to her mother's house, but he really didn't want to go home and change a piece of clothing. Besides, he was empty-handed, he didn't have a penny in his pocket, so he asked his parents to give him...

Li Hongbing stood still, touched his pocket in embarrassment, finally gritted his teeth, turned around and whispered to Mo Cheng.

"Can you... lend me 200 yuan."

"Of course," Mo Cheng nodded with a smile, then took out the wallet of the same model as Xiao Le's from his pocket, and opened it in front of Li Hongbing.

Li Hongbing stared slightly at the cash of no less than ten thousand inside.

Mo Cheng took out two hundred and handed it over, "Since you are in a hurry, I won't drag you into talking. Let's have a good talk when you come back and have time."

"Hey," Li Hongbing stretched out his rough and slightly old hand to take the money, "Thank you."

"You are welcome, we are all brothers."

For a young man in his early twenties to say that to a man who looked like he was in his early forties, it was a bit out of character.

But Li Hongbing didn't think there was anything wrong with this statement, or Mo Cheng's own temperament, or the wad of money that could be taken out casually...

People are really mad at people.

Before he knew it, Li Hongbing came to Zhang's house with the 200 yuan in his pocket.

In the small woodshed outside Zhang's courtyard, a middle-aged man who was not tall was standing with his back to Li Hongbing.

Brother Zhang still has a plaster cast on his right hand, and his other disabled hand is struggling to pull firewood.

"Brother, I'm coming."

The sound of firewood being dragged on the ground woke Li Hongbing up. He stepped forward quickly, easily picked up the bundle of firewood, and carried it directly into the stove.

Brother Zhang followed behind, smiling foolishly, "Red Soldier, why are you here?"

"Red soldiers?"

The second elder, who was cooking, realized that it was the son-in-law who brought in the firewood.

Mother Zhang quickly took out a few more eggs, "Have you not eaten yet? I'll make brown sugar eggs for you."

"I...."

Li Hongbing, who put down the firewood, looked at the enthusiastic Zhang family, his eyes were a little sore. The old man's family has always been very kind to him.

He suddenly felt that the 200 yuan in his pocket was hot, hotter than his own face. Thinking about it carefully, the days of the old man's family are not many these years, and every time he gives some filial money, it is the daughter-in-law who secretly saves it. down.

"what happened?"

Zhang's father was a very kind and gentle person. When he saw that something was wrong with his son-in-law, he waved to his eldest son and asked him to come over to light the stove. He got up and asked Li Hongbing to talk to him in the main room.

After the two sat down, Father Zhang looked at him, "Did you quarrel with Lijuan?"

This question made Li Hongbing full of grievances, "She wants to divorce me."

"divorce?!"

Father Zhang was also taken aback, "Why did you suddenly bring up the matter of divorce?"

"...I don't know either," Li Hongbing looked at the old man's hand on his knee, so thin that he could see the veins. The old man was always in poor health, and he knew it.

After Father Zhang was shocked, his brows kept frowning.

"You make me think about it."

He wasn't stupid either. The daughter filed for divorce when she returned from her natal home, so the son-in-law would naturally come over to find out what was going on.

But he himself was dumbfounded.

After much deliberation, I didn't come up with one, two, three.

The two sat dryly, and finally Zhang's father said, "Did you quarrel and speak urgently?"

Urgent?

At this moment, Li Hongbing remembered that what Zhang Lijuan said was that if he didn't want to keep his mother's money, he would get a divorce!

"I see!"

Li Hongbing slapped his head, "It's urgent, it's urgent!"

He breathed a sigh of relief, and then took out the 200 yuan to the old man who was also relieved, "You and Mom go buy some snacks, I'll go back first, I'm in a hurry."

After speaking, he ran directly from the main room door.

Not steady at all.

Only then did Zhang's father, who was holding the money, come to his senses, but he didn't even see anyone when he chased after him.

He looked at the 200 yuan in his hand, walked into the kitchen with joy and surprise and said to his wife and children, "This kid returned the 200 yuan."

"What's the matter?"

Mother Zhang asked, and Father Zhang told the story.

Brother Zhang looked at his father, then at his silent mother, and was sent back by Zhang's mother to find some vegetables.

When there were only the husband and wife in the kitchen, Mother Zhang said slowly, "I might know something."

Father Zhang's heart pounded, and he looked at his wife nervously, "What's going on?"

The brown sugar eggs were scooped into a small stainless steel basin. Mother Zhang freed one hand to get a spoon from the cupboard, and sighed, "Don't you have an operation for your gallstones? As a result, the boss was injured. The prepared If some surgery money goes in, it's not enough..."

She borrowed 500 yuan from Zhang Lijuan.

"I thought, even if her mother-in-law is in charge of the money, the young couple still have some money, right? Now it seems that she doesn't even have five hundred."

Zhang's mother said, her face was also ugly, "Blame me, her mother-in-law is very strict about everything, and recently she is worried about Kang Gaosan's affairs. This is adding fuel to the fire, can't you quarrel?"

"Then how did he get the two hundred?"

The more Father Zhang listened, the more anxious he became, "I'm afraid he borrowed it for us from somewhere!"

"Then quickly ask Yang Sanwa to take you on a motorcycle to catch up with him!"

You can't let your daughter and son-in-law quarrel.

Yang Sanwa's house was not far from them. When they caught up with Li Hongbing, Zhang's father got off the motorcycle and stuffed the money back. There are plenty of places, what can we two old ones do? You take it back."

"Dad...don't do this, this is my heart!"

Li Hongbing blushed and wanted to return the money to Zhang's father, but Zhang's father pushed him away and told Yang Sanwa to leave as soon as he got on the motorcycle.

The old man's voice came from the wind, "Don't quarrel when you go back, live a good life!"

Yang Sanwa pursed her lips, thinking that the neighbor's sister married the wrong person.

But he didn't poke his uncle's heart.

Li Hongbing couldn't catch up after him. He watched the motorcycle go away. He patted his thigh vigorously. Looking at the 200 yuan, he felt extremely ashamed.

"You lent him 200 yuan?"

When Mo Cheng came back with the bamboo knot on his back and told Xiao Le about borrowing money, Xiao Le walked back and forth in front of him with his hands behind his back.

"And showed off my wallet."

Mo Cheng smiled lightly.

"Then I have to show off." Xiao Le rolled his eyes, took out all the money in Mo Cheng's wallet, went to Xiao's father to get [-] in cash, and stuffed his wallet full.

But he didn't find a chance to show off, because Li Hongbing didn't take the path in front of their door, but walked home from his own field along the hillside.

I don't know why.

Zhang Lijuan said that after the divorce, she did not work in the field or eat, so she locked herself in the room.

No matter how the in-laws scold or say, she just doesn't open the door.

Taking into account that Xiao's mother heard it, no matter how much the two elders scolded, their voices were not as loud as before.

Now when they asked Li Hongbing what happened, Zhang Lijuan also stood up, and stood behind the door to listen.

"It's nothing different." Li Hongbing came to the door and asked Zhang Lijuan to open the door after learning that Zhang Lijuan had been in the room all morning.

"Lijuan, open the door."

Zhang Lijuan's voice came through the door, "I don't want too much, just give us the tuition money for the two children."

"It's said that there is no money! How can any grandchildren read books in the coffins of their grandparents!"

Mrs. Li became anxious again.

"If you keep making trouble, others will see it as a joke! I have kept accounts of the money I have used all these years. If you ask your wife to come out and look at the accounts, we two old people will still be ignorant of your money?"

Old man Li has a decent face.

Li Hongbing told Zhang Lijuan, Zhang Lijuan took a deep breath, opened the door a little, pulled Li Hongbing into the room, and then closed the door again.

She didn't care about the second elder jumping outside.

"Did you go to my parents' house to ask what happened?"

Zhang Lijuan looked at the man with sweat on his face and asked.

"Here," Li Hongbing put the two hundred in Zhang Lijuan's hands.

"Where did you get the money? You didn't borrow it from my parents, did you?!"

Zhang Lijuan said anxiously that her father would tell her that he didn't have enough money for the operation, but she couldn't afford to pay five hundred. If her husband borrowed money from her natal family, it would be even more difficult for her to accept it.

"No, no," Li Hongbing said hastily, "I borrowed it from Xiao Mocheng. I originally wanted to give my parents filial money, but my father caught up with me on Yang Sanwa's motorcycle on the way and forced the money into my pocket." Come back, Lijuan, I..."

"You are really good. You dare not open your mouth to take money from your parents, but you are ashamed to borrow money from the people who just moved here. Li Hongbing, I just found out why you are so thick-skinned when you are outside?"

After Zhang Lijuan became anxious, she could say anything. She was under too much pressure, whether it was the child, the parents, or the in-laws and husband.

"I have been with you for so many years, and there is no day that is easy. Before you have children, I think you are filial to your parents, and you love your brothers and sisters. I can understand it. I didn't expect you to be like this after having children. Li Hongbing, I really don't want to live with you anymore."

"I don't want Xiang Kang and my younger sister to be unable to continue studying. I don't know a single word, but my child can't! I heard everything your mother told you that day!"

Zhang Lijuan's voice gradually became louder, allowing the old man outside the door to hear clearly.

"Why do you want Xiang Kang to go out to work after finishing high school? Why don't you waste money and let my younger sister go to high school and let her work in a factory after two years of high school to make money! I tell you what you want! I am divorced from this marriage! Don't think I'm a fool, divorce has to divide property between husband and wife!"

The door was pulled open by Zhang Lijuan, she stared at Old Man Li and said.

"Isn't it just keeping accounts? I am uneducated, but I know how to write 1234, and I also kept accounts. Do you want to see it? How much money we have paid over the years is in your hands, and you secretly gave it to the little one." How much did Uncle and Sister-in-law take!"

"Zhang Lijuan!"

Li Hongbing grabbed her arm, Zhang Lijuan gritted her teeth and pushed it away, yelling like a lunatic, "I want a divorce! You can live with your parents for the rest of your life! My children don't need you to worry about them!"

After speaking, he rushed into the house and was about to leave with the woven bag he had packed up. Li Hongbing snatched it from her, but Zhang Lijuan's tears dripped on the back of his hand, which was as hot as sulfuric acid.

He was a little at a loss, but he quickly closed the door and locked it.

"Lijuan, listen to me, I will think of a way for the children's tuition fees, don't be angry, and don't say angry words, we have been husband and wife for so many years, how can I be willing to let you go, how can I be willing to let you leave me."

Li Hongbing squatted on the ground, grabbed Zhang Lijuan's hand and said shakily.

Without saying anything, Zhang Lijuan broke free from Li Hongbing's grip on her hand, and took out a small book from under the mattress, which was Li Xiaomei's unused homework book.

While crying, she turned to the end and asked Li Hongbing to look at the accounts she had recorded above, "Everything is written down by me."

Big and small, over the past ten years, about 12 yuan has been handed over to the elderly. The annual tuition fees of the children are paid by the couple from selling bamboo. Qian and the others were clear in their hearts, so they didn't insist on leaving.

"You also listened to your parents, they won't take out this money," Zhang Lijuan looked at her husband with tears in her eyes, "It's fine for them to be biased, and even take all the money away! Xiang Kang's grades have always been good, You must read it in college!"

Tuition fees and living expenses are all money.

"The two of us can't even afford 500 yuan. How can we afford the tuition? I'm afraid they won't take out the money when the notification letter arrives, but let Xiang Kang go to work."

The parents-in-law have always disliked the granddaughter and grandson in front of them. What they like is the grandson, the two children of the second child's family.

"I have to think about the children, Li Hongbing, let me say it again, the 12, you have to get back [-], if you can't get it back, we will divorce."

She wiped away the tears on her face bit by bit, and looked at her pleading husband with some indifference.

In fact, the palms and back are sweaty.

At this moment, Li Hongbing's answer is her choice at the next moment.

It's not that I don't want to part with it, but this kind of life is really enough.

Seeing that Li Hongbing didn't answer for a long time, Zhang Lijuan closed her eyes in despair, thinking of her mother borrowing money from her for her father's operation fee.

There are also sons and daughters who are rejected by their parents-in-law.

After Li Hongbing left the room, he went to his parents' room, and it took him a long time to ask them for the money.

"No more," Old Man Li asked Mrs. Li to stop talking, and took out a small notebook by himself, "Look, it's all an account."

Before Li Hongbing took it over and looked at it, the old lady Li cried, "My own son doesn't trust us anymore, what are we doing alive!"

"Why are you crying!" Old man Li scolded, and then said to the ashamed Li Hongbing, "Look, after reading it, you will know that we are not lying. Also, your sister-in-law comes back with money every month to honor our husband and wife, how can we Will you take money to subsidize them?"

"The second family is not short of money! The second daughter-in-law is not fussy," Mrs. Li still couldn't control her words, and continued to compare the two sons and daughter-in-law.

In short, there is no money.

Li Hongbing knew Zhang Lijuan well. If he couldn't get the money back, he would definitely get a divorce. He knelt down in front of the elders and begged, "It doesn't need 12, [-] is fine."

"no!"

"Can I borrow it? I will!"

Li Hongbing said again.

"I don't even have a loan of [-]." Mrs. Li looked embarrassed, "At most [-], only [-]."

"I still have some cigarette money here. I'll scrape together [-] yuan for you so that your wife can stop making trouble."

The old man Li got up and took some from the east and searched the west. A total of 1 yuan was handed to Li Hongbing, "If it is not enough, go to the second child and ask if you can borrow some."

"What about the two sons of the second son's family, the eldest is in the first grade of high school, and the youngest is in the first grade of junior high school. They are all money, and now to marry a wife, they must have a car and a house. They can't save money?"

Mrs. Li's words directly cut off Li Hongbing's idea.

Yes, it's not easy for my younger brother's family.

When Li Hongbing appeared with the 1 yuan, the light in Zhang Lijuan's eyes dimmed little by little.

When Li Xiaomei came back that evening, she felt that the atmosphere at home was not right, but Xiao's mother and his wife were talking with the old man in the main room, so there was no scolding in the past.

Li Xiaomei glanced at Li Hongbing who was chopping firewood in the yard, washed her hands and helped Zhang Lijuan cook, "Mom, what happened at home?"

She is a very sensitive child.

Zheng Lijuan smiled at her, "Mom will sleep next to you at night, so I will tell you slowly, okay?"

Looking at her mother's red and swollen eyes, Li Xiaomei nodded while holding back her anger and discomfort.

Mrs. Li enthusiastically asked Xiao's mother to have dinner here. Xiao's mother smiled and said that her two sons had already prepared it at home, so she declined.

After they left, Li Xiaomei didn't listen to her grandparents scolding, which was even more strange.

But when eating, the faces of grandparents are ugly.

Zhang Lijuan took Li Xiaomei to Xiao's house to ask questions, and returned the 200 yuan to Mo Cheng during the period.

Mo Cheng took the money, looked at Zhang Lijuan with a smile, "Sister-in-law, just tell me if you need help."

"Yeah, don't be polite to us," Xiao Le told Li Xiaomei his thoughts, and asked her to do the questions first, and then check after she was done. No, he came out and rubbed against Mo Cheng, hugging the opponent's chest The arms rubbed against each other.

Such an intimate gesture reminded Zhang Lijuan of the closeness she had with her eldest brother when she was a child.

"Thank you."

After the mother and daughter left, Xiao Le rubbed his chin, "At this time they were arguing for a divorce, but later, Li Hongbing knelt down and begged, and persuaded him to go home."

Then she was unrepentant. When Li Xiangkang's admission letter came, the old lady really didn't take out the money, and she couldn't apply for a student loan, because their family was not in need.

The annual income from farming can fully support children's education.

Li Xiangkang is also a strong one. He followed Li Laosan and the others to work on the construction site. He wanted to save tuition fees, but something happened...

Thinking of this, Xiao Le made a decision, "Let's open a small shop in the county, and visit it occasionally."

"Okay."

Under the bright moonlight, Mo Cheng stretched out his hand to grab the back of Xiao Le's head, pressed the person to his side, then lowered his head and kissed Xiao Le's forehead.

Xiao Le giggled, and after Mo Cheng finished kissing, he raised his head, pouted his mouth, and signaled Mo Cheng to kiss again in another place with his small eyes.

"Sure?"

Mo Cheng raised his eyebrows.

Xiao Le even tiptoed upon hearing this.

Mo Cheng glanced at the door of the main room, suppressed a smile and kissed it.

As soon as the kiss was made, Xiao Le heard the old father coughing on purpose.

"The moonlight is so bright, be careful!"

Father Xiao's words made Xiao Le blush, then kissed Mo Cheng back, then stretched out his arms to wrap around Mo Cheng's waist, buried his face in his arms and rubbed against him.

"You saw it, so ask me!"

Mo Cheng didn't deny it, and after touching his head, he hugged him. Under the moonlight, the lovers cuddled each other, very intimate.

And Zhang Lijuan, who was sleeping next to her daughter, whispered about her decision.

"Divorce? Really?"

Li Xiaomei sat up excitedly, without the resistance that Zhang Lijuan was afraid of, "Great! Brother will be as happy as me when he finds out!"

Zhang Lijuan was taken aback by these words, "...What do you mean?"

Li Xiaomei slipped her mouth and could only confess, "Actually, we have talked about your divorce a long time ago. My brother and I want to follow you and let Dad live alone without us. Only then will he know what is the most precious thing." of."

Zhang Lijuan, who never expected her children to discuss these things, was both sad and happy.

Before five o'clock the next morning, Zhang Lijuan left with Li Xiaomei with the 1 yuan in her woven bag.

When the Li family woke up and saw no one, at first they thought they were going to the school with Li Xiaomei.

Maybe a parent meeting or something.

After all, the final exam is coming soon.

But when no one came back after noon, Li Hongbing became anxious.

The two used a mobile phone, and the mobile phone was at Li Hongbing's place, so naturally they couldn't contact each other, so they called the father-in-law, but the other party also became anxious, saying that he hadn't returned, and now Li Hongbing's eyes darkened, knowing that Zhang Lijuan really wanted to leave him up.

But Mrs. Li and the others were thinking about the 1 yuan.

"She had planned it long ago, she must have run away with the wild man!"

Mrs. Li could no longer control the volume, crying and feeling sorry for the 1 yuan, the howling attracted Xiao Le's family.

Xiao's mother and Xiao's father persuaded the two elders, Xiao Le acted as if he had nothing to do with him, Mo Cheng pulled Li Hongbing up and stood in a daze.

"Do you think she really left with another man?"

Li Hongbing immediately shook his head, "No way!"

"Is it possible to find a job?"

Mo Cheng asked again.

Li Hongbing clenched his hands, very worried, "It's very possible, but she's alone..."

"Going out alone to find a job must be a last resort. Have you guys had a fight?"

It's not just a quarrel, but a divorce.

"You'd better appease the old man first."

Xiao Le pointed to the old lady Li who was crying and cursing, and the old man Li with a livid face.

With such a big commotion, even the third brother Li was attracted.

They didn't believe it at all when they learned that Zhang Lijuan left with the money, or with the wild man.

"There must be some misunderstanding. She has been married for so many years, and we still know what she is like."

"Yes, brother Hongbing, the old man is really angry, don't believe it."

Li Hongbing nodded. There were many scratches on his face, which were all scratched when he persuaded Mrs. Li.

"I want to go to my elder brother's house, fourth child, can you give me a ride there?"

Li Laosi has a second-hand motorcycle, and he nodded immediately when he heard this. After watching them leave, Xiao Le also took Xiao's mother and his wife away.

"Mom, they won't listen to what you say now."

Mo Cheng also kindly asked the old lady, "Why don't you call your second child?"

As soon as Mrs. Li wanted to speak, Old Man Li declined.

"Let's talk about it when the boss comes back."

After they all left, Mrs. Li said unhappily, "Why don't you stop calling the second child?"

"If the second child joins in, then Zhang Lijuan will come back and ask where the money went, what should I say?"

The 10,000+ is really nothing in their hands, and they secretly gave the big head to the second child.

Old man Li was thinking far away.

Now Mrs. Li stopped talking.

Li Hongbing did not find Zhang Lijuan at Zhang's house, and the two elderly people were in a hurry. Even his mother-in-law, who had never said harsh words to him, complained to him.

"If you think about your little family more, things won't be like this!"

Li Hongbing returned home in a daze, seeing him like this, Li Laosi felt a little worried, and even gave some advice, but he didn't know if the other party listened to him or not.

"Call the police, find the person, and send the money back!"

Old man Li exhaled a mouthful of thick smoke and said to his son who walked into the yard.

Li Hongbing did not speak.

In the evening, Li Xiaomei came back. As soon as she got home, the old lady Li grabbed her by the collar, "Tell me, where did your mother go? Where did you go with the money?! Tell me!"

Li Xiaomei cried out loudly, and called her father vigorously while crying.

Li Hongbing was cooking, but when he heard his daughter crying, he ran out of the kitchen immediately. Seeing Mrs. Li grabbing her, he hurried forward and pulled Li Xiaomei behind him.

"Mom, why are you angry at me, what does she know as a child."

Li Xiaomei, who was behind him, wiped away her tears and ran back to the room.

"Look at her, look at her! This is your daughter!"

Mrs. Li gave Li Hongbing a few more blows.

Li Hongbing suffered like this.

Their family had a noisy dinner, but Xiao Le and the others had an open-air barbecue.

"I found out clearly, and now I'm looking for a job as a kitchen handyman not far from the high school, and it's [-] a month."

The consumption situation in the county is just like this, and the chef is only in his early three thousand.

While eating the grilled wings, Xiao Le said to Mo Cheng, "Mom and I will go to the county to look at shops tomorrow."

"You take the money yourself," Mo Cheng rolled his hands over the barbecue and said with a smile.

"Thank you, Boss! Boss will bring you another bunch of wings!"

As soon as Xiao Le's voice fell, he saw Li Xiaomei standing awkwardly at the gate of the courtyard with a flashlight on and a math exercise book in her hand.

She didn't expect to run over just after eating something, just in time to meet them eating.

"Little sister, come in," Mother Xiao beckoned gently.

Li Xiaomei came in blushing and called out politely.

"Come on, let's talk about the questions first, and then we'll have some barbecue after we understand the questions."

Xiao Le smiled and led her into the main room.

Not long after Xiao Le finished explaining the questions, Li Xiaomei heard Li Hongbing's voice. She raised her head and looked outside, and saw Li Hongbing talking to Mo Cheng.

"Don't worry about the outside world, just focus on it."

Xiao Le said seriously.

Li Xiaomei calmed down and continued to work on the questions.

"Drink? Okay."

Mo Cheng didn't expect that Li Hongbing would come to him for a drink, so he directly brought out a jug of white wine, took out two large bowls, and drank with the other party.

Father Xiao walked behind Mo Cheng with his hands behind his back, "Don't get into trouble with drinking, drinking is a joy, not a disappointment."

"Understood, Dad."

Mo Cheng glanced at Li Hongbing, who was drinking too much, and didn't tell him that his parents were short-tempered, and the two of you finished your drink and I drank.

After only two bowls, Li Hongbing passed out drunk.

Mo Cheng carried them back to Li's house, old man Li and the others had already gone to bed, and Li Xiaomei led Mo Cheng to Li Hongbing's room.

When Mo Cheng left, he said to Li Xiaomei, "Remember to ask sister-in-law to report your grandfather's safety. I've heard that your grandfather's health doesn't seem to be very good."

Finished talking and left.

Li Xiaomei's heart was beating extremely fast, but she also knew that Xiao Mocheng was not the only one who knew where her mother was hiding, but also her father Li Hongbing.

As she thought, Li Hongbing woke up the next day, endured a headache and went to work in the field without mentioning Zhang Lijuan.

Although old man Li and the old couple are dissatisfied, they can't be found now, and there is nothing they can do.

"We must get the money back! If she doesn't come back, her parents are still there!"

Mrs. Li said with a gloomy face.

Old man Li didn't speak, expressing his acquiescence.

Xiao Le and Xiao's mother walked for about half an hour, and then got into a friend's car.

"Please come to pick us up so early."

Mother Xiao also knew this junior.

"Auntie, what are you talking about? When Xiao Le and I were in college, we would trouble Auntie every now and then. What's the point of picking you up now?"

This is Yu Bo, the friend who bought a house for Xiao Le and the others.

"That's right, despite the trouble," Xiao Le put on his seat belt with a smile on his face, "Is the shop you inquired about located in front of the high school?"

"Yes," Yu Bo nodded, "To be honest, I really think that cooking in front of the high school makes money, but there is one thing, it must be affordable and delicious."

"Students, spending power must be considered," Xiao Le talked about the shop with his friends, while Xiao's mother looked out the window of the village.

When Zhang's mother received her daughter's call, all her worries disappeared, "I knew you would call, what do you think?"

After the two talked for a while, Zhang's mother secretly told her husband and son, telling them not to get involved.

Father Zhang disagreed, "It's not a problem to hide like this."

"What are you hiding, she's at work," Zhang's mother corrected him.

"Then you have to talk to your in-laws and the rest of the family. If you make it clear, you won't quarrel."

"Do you think her mother-in-law won't have the cheek to go to the boss and ask the boss to hand over her salary?"

Zhang's mother felt that this was completely done.

"Dad, listen to me," Brother Zhang said softly, tugging at Father Zhang's sleeve.

He also loves his sister.

"Ugh....."

Father Zhang could only sigh.

Zhang Lijuan works diligently and quickly, and the boss is very satisfied with her, even if she keeps letting her live in the corner of the back kitchen, it is not a problem.

"You still have to find a place to live by yourself."

The bed "made" with just two boards hurts just looking at it, and the boss can't stand it anymore, but he himself lives in a rented house and can't help the employees.

"Hey, I'll try to find it as soon as possible."

Zhang Lijuan really didn't find a suitable single room. She lives alone, so naturally she doesn't know a suite.

The front hall was not busy at the moment, so when Xiao Le and the others came to order something to eat, their voices were very prominent. It happened that Xiao's mother went to the back to find the bathroom, so she came face to face with Zhang Lijuan.

"Lijuan!"

Xiao's mother happily stepped forward and grabbed her hand, and after looking at her carefully, she reassured, "I know you're fine."

The boss is here, so she naturally won't say too much.

"Auntie," Zhang Lijuan was also happy, but she was working now, so the two didn't talk too much.

After Xiao's mother went out, she told Xiao Le about Zhang Lijuan's presence here. Xiao Le was not surprised, but whispered to Xiao's mother, "Mom, what do you think about asking sister-in-law to help us with work?"

"This....."

Isn't this the employee who poached others?

Mother Xiao first thought of this.

"I just heard from the waiter over there that my sister-in-law hasn't found a place to live yet, and now she lives in the back kitchen."

I really heard it, it was the waiter and the proprietress who were gossiping there, and it happened that he and Yu Bo heard it.

"That's not okay. I'll ask when she gets off work."

Mother Xiao said immediately.

She likes Zhang Lijuan very much, and she doesn't like her husband's family very much, so she takes Li Hongbing out.

That is a father and mother man.

Around 02:30, Zhang Lijuan had time to eat, and Xiao's mother and the others just finished eating. After talking to the boss, Xiao's mother went to the back to find Zhang Lijuan.

He said that they were going to open a store and that they wanted to ask her to help look after the store.

"I do not know anything."

Zhang Lijuan's heart was moved, but she also knew how much she weighed.

"We open a cold fried snack bar, you just learn it," Xiao Le and the others discussed what to sell during the meal.

"Think about it," Mother Xiao pointed to the shop diagonally opposite, "It's right there, it has two floors, the first floor is the shop, and the second floor is the place to stay. We occasionally come to the county to live for a few days, If you help us look after the shop, then you can also help look after the residential building."

It is close to the high school and there is no need to rent another house. It is indeed a good thing and a good choice.

Zhang Lijuan looked at her boss with a blushing face, "I left just two days after I came here, didn't I..."

"Let me talk about this." Xiao Le came over at some unknown time, "If it's convenient for my sister-in-law, she can come with us to clean up after get off work today."

The boss let him go very readily. In fact, he was also a little embarrassed, because after recruiting someone, his wife felt that there was no need to recruit another one, and was thinking about what to say.

Zhang Lijuan didn't even need to go there after get off work, just let her go right now.

"We're all friends on the same street, we'll take care of each other in the future."

The proprietress also said heartily.

So Zhang Lijuan received two days' wages and followed Xiao Le and the others to the opposite door.

"The renovation will take about a month. In this month, my sister-in-law will go to the master I mentioned to study, and she will live here at night."

They came to the second floor, "There are four rooms on the second floor, and the sofa is also very big. It is convenient for my nephew to live here on weekends."

Xiao's mother asked Zhang Lijuan to choose two rooms. Zhang Lijuan thought that their family would have to live in three rooms, so she chose one room, and her son could sleep on the sofa when he came.

"My brother and I have always lived in the same room," Xiao Le waved his hand nonchalantly, "Well, I'll make the decision, the elder nephew will live in the room next to this one, and the younger sister will live next to her sister-in-law when she comes down."

"That's good," Mother Xiao nodded first.

If they hadn't really wanted to open a store, Zhang Lijuan would have felt that everything was too coincidental, and everything followed her, and she was full of gratitude for a moment.
