Men and women eating in the courtyard

Li Xuewu said: "Monopoly, disconnect the fields from the middle, and we are the middle link. We go to the customers to get the orders, and then go to the people around to collect them. We earn the price difference here, and at the same time we can sell our own thing"

Wen San'er said in surprise: "Hey, this relationship is good, but what if there are too many customers? We are too busy!"

Li Xuewu looked at him mockingly and said: "Do you want to go to heaven? If you can win over 50 people who place orders, it will be enough for us. I will find you a decent job to cover it up. We will talk about this later."

Lao Biaozi and Shen Guodong couldn't understand the conversation between Wen San'er and Li Xuewu, but they felt it was very powerful and nodded with half-understanding.

Li Xuewu stood up and said: "Okay, it's late today. I'll come back after I've settled down in the past few days. Remember what I said."

After saying that, he stood up and walked out. Lao Biaozi and Wen San'er walked to the entrance of the alley before going back.

Li Xuewu and Shen Guodong went home one after another.

Wandering all the way, I felt the environment and atmosphere unique to this era.

When I entered my alley, I saw that every house was filled with smoke.

In fact, life here is very convenient. There is a supply and marketing cooperative on the right when you go out. Turn around and go straight to the main street. It is surrounded by workers from the steel rolling mill and most of the residents live there. Because this area is very messy and there are several big car shops.

Li Xuewu stopped watching and entered the courtyard gate and walked inside.

By accident, a figure bumped into him.

"Ouch!"

With a cooing sound, Li Xuewu was not affected at all, but the man leaned back.

Li Xuewu said "Hey" and quickly wrapped his arms around the man's waist. The woman finally didn't fall.

Li Xuewu breathed a sigh of relief and took a closer look. It turned out to be Yu Li, the eldest daughter-in-law of the third uncle's family.

This newlywed young woman is quite beautiful, with an oval face, big eyes, and a standard daughter-in-law face. Although her appearance cannot beat Widow Qin's charming face, her figure is not inferior.

Yu Li was hurt by the collision. She straightened up and rubbed it with her hands. There were tears on her face, but they were not from being hit just now, but she had obviously cried earlier.

When she noticed that Li Xuewu was looking at her, her cheeks turned red. She wiped her tears in embarrassment and left without saying anything.

Li Xuewu looked at her and knew without thinking that he was quarreling with Yan Jiecheng, the eldest son of the Yan family.

As the old saying goes, everything goes bad for poor and humble couples.

The third uncle's nickname is Yan Laokou'er, he is the master of splitting flowers in half with a penny.

Yu Li married into the Yan family and had no job. The father-in-law, Yan Jiecheng, was a temporary worker, doing odd jobs here and there. The most he could earn in a month was only a dozen yuan, which was not guaranteed. In addition to half of it going to the family, he also had to pay for food. You have to pay to ride a bicycle and use a flashlight, so it's no wonder that you can live a comfortable life like this.

The couple lived in a small house converted from an auxiliary room in the hall with three doors, which was big enough to accommodate a double bed. They usually had to follow the mother-in-law to take care of the whole family.

Li Xuewu didn't think much about it. According to the TV series, Yu Li's chicken is delicious. You have to remember this.

After entering the second door, I heard the noise of the third uncle's house. After a while, Yan Jiecheng walked out with his clothes on, apparently to chase Yu Li.

Yan Jiecheng walked up to Li Xuewu and saw Li Xuewu looking at him with a straight face, lowered his head and got out without saying a word.

Maybe he remembered the beating he had received.

Li Xuewu stood under the porch and looked at the boy's slumped back. He really didn't look like him.

This courtyard is really lively.

Not to mention the chaos in the courtyard, Li Xuewu returned home, burned both beds, opened the quilts and started spreading the quilts. He still didn't get enough sleep in the afternoon and continued to sleep at night.

When the fire bed got hot, Li Xuewu stretched his feet into the quilt. It was warm and very comfortable.

A night of silence.

Early the next morning, Li Xuewu got up early and followed his grandma to clean up the horse pen, feed the horses, drink them, and hold firewood. Li Shun looked at him and stopped breathing out his nostrils, but just ignored him.

It doesn't matter, if you inherit someone else's body, you have to inherit the family's debts.

You can view yourself however you like in this family.

Due to tradition, this father hopes that the eldest son will provide for him in old age, and he is more fond of the third son who can inherit the mantle, and is extremely disgusted with the troublemaking second son.

Li Xuewu estimated that he might have been influenced by the concepts of old son and eldest grandson when he was a child.

The eldest brother is the eldest grandson, the third brother is the old son, and his mother also has a little cotton-padded jacket called Li Xue, so Li Xuewu received less care when he was a child. He may have attracted attention by causing trouble, but he didn't expect that his path would turn dark.

Although grandma also cared about her after she came back, most of her words were about her eldest grandson.

The third child was studying medicine around Li Shun, and Li Xue was around his mother Liu Yin. Li Xuewu naturally received more attention when he came back, but as time went by, he still remained the same.

The boss is stupid and only knows how to study, while the sister-in-law is too thoughtful and wants to go out alone.

The third child is smart and wants to learn a trade. Fortunately, if he is the best in school, he will have more opportunities in the future.

The fourth child is clever and knows how to read colors, which makes his sister-in-law and mother happy. Father Li Shun also feels sorry for this little cotton-padded jacket.

Li Xuewu thought a lot and was open-minded. If he could maintain family harmony, he would be considered a passing grade. He did not dare to ask for more. Less desire meant less disappointment.

Li Xuewu hummed a song and carried the iron bucket to the central courtyard to fetch water. He was idle and filled the water tank first.

Li Xuewu was opening the faucet in the courtyard to receive water.

When I looked up, I saw a tall, thin man with a mustache walking out of the Moon Gate. It was Xu Damao, the film projectionist at the steel rolling mill.

"Hey, Brother Damao, it's Sunday, so early." Li Xuewu greeted with a smile.

Xu Damao was stunned.

In the past, Li Xuewu was a tall man, but he wouldn't talk to him. He would only nod his head when meeting him. But he was so polite when we first met him after a dozen visits. What's wrong with him?

However, Xu Damao was a person of public interest, so even if he called Li Xuewu Brother Damao, he couldn't show off his face to others, and he didn't dare to show off his face.

After responding, he squatted next to him and brushed his teeth, and asked, "I heard yesterday that you were back, and you were arranged to join the security department of the steel rolling mill. When will you start working in the factory?"

Li Xuewu and others filled up the water, turned off the faucet, and made room for Xu Damao: "It has to be tomorrow. The factory will report on Monday."

Xu Damao's eyes changed, and he secretly thought that it was true that this kid entered the security office. He couldn't help but look at Li Xuewu, secretly surprised.

It stands to reason that they have lived in the same courtyard for more than ten years and know each other well. They have never heard of any hesitation in Lao Li's family.

However, Xu Damao was a bit fussy and didn't bother to get to the bottom of things. After brushing his teeth and washing his face, he watched Li Xuewu return to the front yard.

Putting down the basin and teeth, Xu Damao was still thinking about the information revealed in Li Xuewu's words just now.
