Chapter 211 Big Sister's Housework

When the eldest sister Li Li just gave birth to her baby last year, Li Wen's family originally discussed lending the eldest sister a hundred yuan to help them build a house.

But Li Chaoyang's mother insisted that they couldn't afford to pay back the 100 yuan. Anyway, Li Wen's family had money, so she could give it to them. Wang Chunmei became so angry that she turned against her on the spot.

To be honest, Li Wen had no intention of taking the hundred yuan he lent. He was brought up by his eldest sister Li Li. He has a deep affection for her, and even Li Wen also cares about Li Li.

Li Wen's family doesn't have many demands. They just want their eldest sister Li Li to live a better life after being separated. Their family doesn't have many demands.

But if you shamelessly borrow money and refuse to repay it, it will immediately collapse. Who would still want to borrow money? You are not a fool.

Later, when Li Wen's family went to visit Li Li, they didn't bring too much food or things. Instead, they secretly stuffed some money in tickets and asked Li Li to spend it secretly in town.

Li Wen sat and chatted with Erya's mother about the recent changes in Weihe County. In recent months, the power generation dam in Weihe County has been completed, and many places in the county have been connected to electricity.

Canneries and garment factories were also built one after another, especially the completion of the cannery, which relieved Weihe County's tight finances.

The eldest brother Li Wu is at the bus station, the second brother Li Quan is at the farm station, the eldest sister Li Li is at the cannery, and the second sister Li Xia is at the garment factory.

It can be said that the whole family has an iron rice bowl. Li Wen's goal at the beginning of the time travel was to have enough food for his family.

In fact, the Li Wen family not only had enough to eat, but also became well-off in this era.

While the two were talking, the door was pushed open, and Li Wen saw that it was Erya and his sister Xiaomin who were leaving school.

The little girl also recognized Li Wen at a glance and ran over shouting.

"Brother Xiaowen, you're back. Erya misses you so much." Erya, this girl, is really close to Li Wen. She rushed over and hugged Li Wen's thigh.

The eldest girl, Xiao Min, was relatively shy because she was older, so she just called Brother Xiao Wen in a low voice.

Within a few months, the Erya sisters had completely recovered, and Erya had completely grown back into her former little old man appearance.

The faces of the two little guys have turned a lot rosier, and they can be considered two cute little girls.

Li Wen took out a few chicken cakes from his bag and divided them among several children. The little ones burst into laughter.

Then Li Wen asked the two little girls about their schooling. It was obvious that both children were very happy and liked reading. Even Xiao Min, who talked less, became active.

Li Wen smiled and promised that if the two little girls came back with excellent results during the Chinese New Year, he would reward them.

Erya and Xiao Min, who were happy, promised repeatedly that they would definitely come back with a certificate at the end of the year.

"Xiao Wen, you go play first while Auntie goes to cook. The children have to go to school in the afternoon!" Erya's mother got up and returned to the kitchen.

Looking at his little nephew who was stoned with several little girls, Li Wen suddenly remembered that he still had several classic artifacts in his space.

"Come here, little treasure, uncle will get you a fun toy." Li Wen waved to the little guy and took out a tin frog from his satchel.

"Wow! Little frog."

Several children immediately gathered around him.

The Tin Frog can be said to be the childhood memory of all young people after the 1960s.

Especially after the 1980s, when the country's economy improved, tin frogs entered thousands of households.

Tin frogs were first produced during the Republic of China, but this type of iron toy has become popular abroad.

The Kangyuan Canning Factory in Shanghai used German products to create three jumping chickens, jumping ducks and jumping frogs. In addition to the tin frog, the tin chicken is also very interesting. It is the colorful hair that pecks rice after being wound up.

Chicken.

But with the founding of the country, many manufacturers across the country began to manufacture, and the tin frog completely entered the department stores in various cities.

However, tin frogs in this era were still not cheap. It was difficult to make industrial products, so the price was naturally high. A tin frog cost Li Wenxiao a dollar.

As Li Wen twisted the clockwork, the little frog began to jump back and forth on the table.

Xiaobao had obviously never seen such a fun toy before, and stared at the little frog without blinking.

Entertainment facilities are scarce these days, and there are too few things for children to entertain themselves. Not to mention Xiaobao, even teenagers as old as Li Wen will not be able to put it down when they meet this little frog.

As the frog jumped, the little guy's uncle's cries became smoother and smoother, which not only satisfied Li Wen's vanity of being an uncle, but also satisfied the child's happiness.

"Xiaobao, mom is back!"

Before he could enter, Li Li's voice came from outside the door.

Li Wen immediately stood up when he saw his eldest sister whom he hadn't seen for several months.

"Sister!"

"Ah! Xiao Wen, you're back. This damn kid has been gone for a few months, and the family is worried." Li Li saw Li Wen's surprised look on his face, and then scolded him.

"hey-hey!"

Li Wen scratched his head in embarrassment.

"Sister, in the blink of an eye, my little nephew is now so big that he is called Thief Six by my uncle.

Xiaobao told uncle to listen! Li Wen shouted to the little guy."

"uncle!"

The little guy's mother didn't even raise her head when she came back, she was focused on playing with the little frog.

"Let's go over to my sister's side first." Li Li said with a smile as she saw Li Wen and his son playing enthusiastically.

"Lili, there's no need to go there, just eat here with me today!" Erya's mother walked out of the kitchen and said with a smile.

"How can this be done!" Li Li shook her head quickly.

"Sister, let's eat at Auntie's place today! I've already given the rations to Auntie, let's talk for a while." Li Wen quickly grabbed Li Li and said.

"Oh well!"

When Li Li heard that Li Wen had given him food, she said nothing more. In fact, she also knew that her younger brother had supported Erya's family, but she didn't tell anyone else.

"Sister, how is the job in the cannery, are you happy?" Li Wen asked with a smile.

"Well, I have a high school diploma and I have a clerical job in the factory, which is relatively easy." Li Li said with a smile.

"That's good. I didn't tell you when I got this job because I was afraid you wouldn't be satisfied." Li Wen smiled and nodded.

Li Li has a high school diploma, so there is no problem with her academic qualifications, but she lacks someone to help her.

"Xiaowen, thank you, sister. If you hadn't given me this job, your brother-in-law and I would still not be able to escape the misery in Qingshui Village." Li Li said, her eyes turning red.

"Sister, why are you crying! We are all a family, and helping you is what a brother should do.

I still remember that when I was young, you often carried me with a basket on your back to cut pig grass and pick wheat ears. I grew up with you, sister," Li Wen comforted.

Li Li nodded with red eyes.

"Oh! By the way, sister, you work in a cannery, what about my brother-in-law?"

"Thanks to your friend, the one named Zheng Kai, the carpentry factory was short of temporary workers last month, and your brother-in-law also knows some carpentry work.

He ran to tell your brother, and then your brother-in-law had the opportunity to work as a temporary worker in the woodworking factory." Li Li laughed immediately when she talked about Song Chaoyang's work.

"Zheng Kai! That's great. My friendship is not in vain. Sister, I just heard from my aunt that your mother-in-law came to the city to cause trouble?" Li Wen asked.

"Well! Originally I was the only one working, and we agreed to give the family eight yuan a month, but your brother-in-law came to make trouble after he became a temporary worker.

He said that since both of us have dual jobs, one of us must give it to your brother-in-law and his brother." Li Li sighed and said.

"How was this matter resolved?"

"I told my aunt that several carloads of people from our village were causing a commotion in Qingshui Village.

My job is yours to begin with, and your brother-in-law's job is only through your relationship. What's the point of giving it to their family?

Finally, the party secretary of Qingshui Village came out and made peace. From now on, we will give ten yuan to the family every month, and then give three yuan to the brigade to cover your brother-in-law's work points." Li Li explained.

"That's fine, just treat it as money to avoid disaster, and my brother-in-law doesn't have to be caught in the middle.

So now the two of you are equivalent to one person's salary, and the food is enough to eat?" Li Wen thought for a moment, nodded, and the final peace was considered a solution.

"There is enough food. Although your brother-in-law does not have a food book, he paid money to the village. When the brigade distributed food, your brother-in-law also got a share, but he had to buy it with money."
