night.
The stars and the moon are sultry.
Li Xia was lying on the bed in the side room, looking at the night sky through the window.
Chu Mengxi and the two naughty boys were sleeping next door, and Li Xia seemed to be able to hear his wife's gentle breathing, as well as the sound of the little devil Nuannuan kicking off the quilt.
Li Xia's house is very simple.
Although there are three connected houses, there is also a toilet and a kitchen.
However, the wall is made of clay bricks.
Wooden windows have no glass, just thin window paper.
The roof is thatched and leaks when it rains heavily.
The house is due for major repairs.
Most of the houses in Shangrong Village have built bungalows with white walls and blue tiles.
Li Xia already has a plan in mind on how to renovate his house.
In his previous life, he had moved bricks at a construction site, and he had worked as a carpenter and a bricklayer...
It would definitely not be possible on his own, and he would need to find several helpers.
Zhang Mazi at the east end of the village used to work in a construction team in the county. You can go to him and recruit a few more people.
The acquaintance is reliable, and the salary is cheap. He can just take care of the food...
Thinking about things in his mind, he gradually fell asleep...
In the next two days, Li Xia sold fish in the morning as usualSelling steamed buns in the afternoon.
The daily income is around 250 to 300 yuan.
The family's savings also amount to a small amount of 1,000,677.
Li Xia began to prepare to build a house.
That afternoon, Li Xia was still selling steamed buns at the county market.
Chu Mengxi works in the textile factory workshop.
A middle-aged woman in her fifties appeared at the gate of the textile factory.
Uncle Yang had been watching the gate for more than ten years. He knew from the look on her face that she was here to find someone, so he asked:
"Are you looking for this eldest sister?"
"I, I'm looking for Chu Mengxi, she works in your factory."The middle-aged woman replied
"oh? Are you looking for Miss Chu?"
"Do you know her?"
"I may not know other employees, but I know Chu Yatou. Sister, who are you to her?"
"She is my daughter-in-law."
This middle-aged woman is Du Yunfang
"It turns out to be Miss Chu's mother-in-law. Come on, come to my guard room and have a glass of water. I'll call you."
Uncle Yang could tell that the other party must have something to do when he came to Chu Mengxi.
"Will this affect her work? I can wait here for her to get off work."
Du Yunfang was afraid of delaying Chu Mengxi's work. It would be bad if she was scolded by the leader.
"The work in our textile factory is not that demanding. You have a drink of water first, and I will call someone for you."
After a while, Chu Mengxi came out with a worried look on her face.
Du Yunfang came to her suddenly. Something must have happened.
"mom!"
Chu Mengxi called out.
She hasn't seen Du Yunfang for more than a year and misses her very much.
The two naughty dumplings also miss their grandma.
After Li Xia learned bad things, Li Shouye said that they would cut off the relationship and would not let Du Yunfang see his son.
But Du Yunfang He secretly went to Shangrong Village several times, but Li Shouye knew about it and did not stop him.
Compared with a year ago, Du Yunfang did not change much, but his face looked very haggard. Something must have happened suddenly, which made him sad. of
"Xiao Xi, how are you lately..."
Du Yunfang knew that working in the textile factory was very hard, Li Xia was idle, and there were two children to raise at home, and the whole family was supported by Chu Mengxi.
If there was nothing she could do, she They wouldn't come over.
Uncle Yang knew they had something to talk about, so he said,"While you guys are chatting, I'm addicted to cigarettes, so I went outside to have a cigarette.""(To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
Chu Mengxi cast a grateful look at Uncle Yang.
Li Xia has a good relationship with Uncle Yang, and she will bring steamed buns to him when she has time. Everyone will remember it..
Others did not receive this kind of treatment at Uncle Yang's place.
The door to the guard room was closed.
Du Yunfang held Chu Mengxi's hand, and the two exchanged a few words.
Chu Mengxi asked:"Mom, did something happen at home? You don’t have to hide it from me"
"You, you saw it?"
Chu Mengxi nodded, it was written all over her face, can't she still see it?
Du Yunfang was so sad that she almost cried.
"If it weren't for the fact that there was no other way (cebh), I wouldn't have come."
"A while ago, Li Xia and his eldest brother opened a restaurant, hoping to make a lot of money"
"But it didn’t go well at all. The chef ran away just after he opened the business. He couldn’t find a new chef and he was losing money every day."
"Your father-in-law was already very angry, but he didn't expect that his rival in the village, Liu Laosan, actually opened a restaurant diagonally across the street and hired a chef from the provincial capital. The business was very good. Now, our restaurant is completely destroyed. Yellow"
"That night, your father-in-law accidentally fell down the stairs and broke his hand bone..."
At this point, Chu Mengxi's heart suddenly tightened, and she quickly asked:
"Dad, how is he...what did the doctor say? Du
Yunfang's eyes were also red, and she said:"Linshui County Hospital can't perform surgery, so we have to go to the provincial capital to have it done.""
"Yesterday, Brother Li Xia sent your father-in-law to the provincial capital, but the medical expenses……"
Chu Mengxi said without hesitation:"Mom, how much money do we need?"
Du Yunfang sighed and wiped her tears and said:"It needs a lot of money, more than 1,200 yuan. We scraped it together, and all our relatives and friends I borrowed them all, and only managed to get more than two hundred yuan, and I'm still short of a thousand yuan!"
Du Yunfang really didn't want to open her mouth, Chu Mengxi was already suffering enough.
But she really had no choice. If she delayed any longer, the old man's hand would be lost.
She wanted Chu Mengxi to ask friends or relatives around her if she could borrow some money, even with interest.
As for Li Xia, Du Yunfang didn't take this unsatisfactory son into consideration at all. It would be nice if he didn't cause trouble in turn.
After hearing Du Yunfang's words, Chu Mengxi breathed a sigh of relief.
"Mom, it's okay. I have money here. Take it and let Dad do the surgery quickly."
When Du Yunfang heard this, he shook his head repeatedly.
"No, absolutely not, how can I ask for your money? It’s not easy for you to make money, and there are two milk babies at home.……"
Du Yunfang didn't want Chu Mengxi's money.
Du Yunfang would never take the dozens or hundreds of dollars that Chu Mengxi had saved so hard.
Moreover, it is far from enough.
It costs a thousand dollars!
She just wanted Chu Mengxi to find someone else. Maybe there was someone with good conditions around her who could help.
"Mom, it’s not the money I earn, it’s the money your son Li Xia earns. We have money, a thousand yuan!"
Chu Mengxi held Du Yunfang's hand and said,"Just enough to pay for dad's surgery.""
"what?!"
"The money my son makes?"
Du Yunfang was stunned for a moment and didn't react for a moment.
His son is making money?
Is this true?
Li Xia... doesn't mess around anymore?!
Chu Mengxi nodded heavily:"Mom, Li Xia has already It has changed. He is no longer idle. He is now making money every day and taking care of me and my two children. Our family is rich, with a thousand yuan!"
"ah?!"
Du Yunfang was shocked!
