Dad's life

Chapter 3 Hometown

Li Mu’s hometown is located in a remote rural area under the county seat of Ningyang City.

It is about 30 kilometers away from where he currently lives, and it takes about 40 minutes to drive. In the past, Li Mu would take his son back to stay overnight after he attended interest classes on Saturdays, and wait for dinner at his hometown the next day.

After lunch, I will bring my son back for Sunday afternoon class.

It’s always a bit of a rush in terms of time.

But after so many years, Li Mu has gotten used to it.

His current life is nothing more than revolving around his son twice and then around his parents.

As for himself, Li Mu doesn't care much.

Sometimes I do feel a little tired and want to take a good rest, but when I lie on the sofa, Li Mu is spurred by the uneasiness in his heart to keep running.

"Ranran"

The car stopped in front of a two-story building.

Li Mu saw his parents coming up to him with joy on their faces. He opened the car door and took Li Ran out. The old couple kissed and pinched his little face.

Except for Li Mu’s parents.

Behind them were two old men with gray hair.

These are Li Mu’s grandparents.

The two old men were in their early eighties, had no illness or disaster, and were in good health. They also looked at Li Ran with happy faces.

Four generations living under one roof.

Li Ran is the fourth generation and the only male in the old Li family who can continue the incense.

So in the eyes of Li Mu's grandparents, Li Ran is a baby.

"Growing taller again"

Li Mu's father, Li Jianguo, gestured at his grandson's height and was even more delighted. The smile on his face could have turned into a trumpet flower and said, "My family will be able to catch up with grandpa in two years."

"Great grandpa, great grandma"

Li Ran called out obediently.

"Okay, everything is fine"

Li Mu's grandfather rubbed Li Ran's head and asked quickly, "Are you tired from riding in the car?"

"Not tired"

Li Ran shook his head.

"My family is so awesome"

Grandpa Li Mu gave a thumbs up and praised, "It's not like my great grandfather who got dizzy after riding in a car."

Go through the gate.

Li Mu saw a dozen salted fish, bacon cut into strips, and stuffed sausages hanging under the eaves. These were all prepared for the New Year.

There are peanuts in the iron pot at the door.

Li Mu's parents are very particular. They never want to buy things they can make at home, and they also like to keep things clean. Even in the cold winter, there is not even a weed on the exterior wall of Li Mu's two-story building.

Once there is grass.

They would all be pulled out and chopped into pieces by Li Mu's father, and thrown into the fish pond in front of the door to feed the fish.

This is true all year round.

Finally, the fish became fat and the surrounding area was clean.

Li Mu's family lives in the easternmost part of the village, and several fruit trees were planted outside the fence.

Spring.

Li Mu's parents would plant some vegetables under the tree. They also fenced a piece of land in the south and planted vegetables. Li Mu would pick some from the vegetable patch and take them home when he came home, including summer beans, eggplants, green peppers, radishes, green vegetables, and loofah.

Autumn spinach, celery, rape, broccoli, chrysanthemum.

Even in winter there will be some cabbage, lettuce, beets and the like.

Therefore, Li Mu has always felt happy that he lives in such a family and has such hard-working parents.

The home is neat and clean.

Parents are kind and tolerant.

These should be the parents that all children in the world want most.

After placing the salute on the sofa in the living room, Li Mu picked up a shovel and helped stir-fry the peanuts.

He is not a young man who opens his mouth and stretches out his hands when food comes. He will try his best to do whatever he can. Even if the results sometimes differ from expectations, Li Mu will still do it.

If you can’t do it once, just do it twice. There will always be times when expectations and results are consistent.

Because he is already in his early thirties.

Sitting in the first seat on the first train after 90, he has been given something called responsibility.

After peeling two and tasting them, Li Mu felt they were almost cooked.

He quickly took out the firewood under the stove, shoveled the peanuts and sand into the dustpan, and then scattered the sand away.

After frying the peanuts, Li Mu continues to fry the melon seeds.

"You can't do this well, so I'll do it!"

Li Mu's mother, Xu Mei, took over the work from her son and while quickly stir-frying, she said, "Your aunt called me this morning to ask when you will be back."

"Going on a blind date again?"

Li Mu's facial muscles twitched uncontrollably.

"Yeah"

Xu Mei nodded and said directly, "I told her that you would come back in the afternoon, and she asked you to come to her house at four in the afternoon."

"Unreliable"

Li Mu said helplessly.

"Then I have to go there, after all, your aunt also has good intentions."

Xu Mei advised.

"I know"

Li Mu nodded in agreement, then looked at the time and said, "I'll be there in a moment."

As a single dad.

In Li Mu's life, the theme of blind date is inevitable.

Last year.

His aunt arranged two blind dates for him.

But in the end it all came to nothing.

After all, the impression a single mother brings to a man is often full of endless possibilities, while the impression a single father brings to a woman is often humble and cheap.

There is no reason to explain.

Li Ran walked happily while two children of similar age to Murakami chased and played.

Return to my hometown.

Li Ran's laughter inevitably increased a lot.

Because the countryside is different from the cars that come and go in the city, there are fewer uncertainties and dangers in children's play. Moreover, every household with adults at home will take the initiative to pay attention to the movements of these children. As long as they are not near the water, no one will usually care about them.

, which resulted in a kind of unrestrained laughter in the laughter of these children.

"Of course, run slower and don't bump"

Li Jianguo's instructions came across the courtyard.

After saying that, his figure walked in from the gate and asked Li Mu's mother, Xu Mei, "Have you told your son?"

"Said"

Xu Mei replied.

"It's okay to go take a look, what if it's suitable!?"

Like Li Mu, Li Jianguo also knows his wife's sister's style of doing things very well, and his words are like buying a lottery ticket. There is some expectation, but not much.

When things were almost busy, Li Jianguo turned to Li Mu and said, "Of course, his great-grandfather and great-grandmother are taking care of him. You go to your aunt's house first, and be careful not to mention your cousin-in-law in front of your aunt."

"Know"

Li Mu nodded in agreement.

His cousin has been married for many years. According to ordinary people's thinking, once the seven-year itch is over, the couple has basically reached a consensus on marriage.

Cousin Li Mu’s marriage was indeed like this in the beginning.

But what was originally a normal marriage was completely out of balance after the house was demolished and three or four houses were taken away.

There is no class either.

Consumption has skyrocketed, and the prices of clothes are all in the four-digit range.

If you have nothing to do, I'll go put on eyeliner and have a beauty treatment.

Cousin Li Mu can tolerate these things, but his cousin's temper has soared to a new level.

This summer.

Cousin Li Mu said something to her cousin because she spent a lot of money.

Unexpectedly, his cousin-in-law was so angry that she took a brick and smashed the family car. The front windshield was completely shattered, the hood was also smashed into several big holes, and the two rearview mirrors were also damaged.

Survival or disaster, the steering wheel and controller in the cab also suffered heavy damage.

Tow it to a car repair shop.

His cousin used a brick to repair a 110,000 yuan scooter, setting a record of 50,000 yuan in maintenance fees.
