"Third brother, you heard that right." Zhao Qingsong smiled.
"Okay," Li Ruizhi said without thinking, "My parents, my eldest brother and my second brother combined are not as much as you."
Zhao Qingsong didn't look proud of this. He took a sip of tea and said, "I can't compare to you. You are working seriously. I am just cheating and taking advantage of small loopholes to make some money."
Li Kaizhi put the teacup in his hand on the table. It was neither light nor heavy, but it made a sound.
Zhao Qingsong looked over and met Li Kaizhi's sinking gaze.
Li Kaizhi was seven or eight years older than him, so he had the aura of a superior person there. When he deliberately showed it off, Zhao Qingsong felt like he was being interrogated.
Li Kaizhi's voice showed no emotion or anger as he said, "Xiao Zhao, do you know what you are doing?"
Zhao Qingsong nodded.
"Once caught, even Xiaorong will be implicated," Li Kaizhi said in a stern tone, "Did you know?"
Zhao Qingsong did not answer his question directly. He said: "I won't let anything happen to them."
Another meaning of this statement is that he knows the seriousness of this matter.
But he still has to do it.
Zhao Qingsong thought for a while and said: "I guarantee that Li Rong will not be harmed in any way. I am also sure of what I am doing. Moreover, the pig farm only needs to talk to the people in charge from all over the country. How can they sell me without participating?
They are only responsible for raising pigs for pork."
"Are you the only one bearing the burden?" Li Xuanzhi asked.
"No, there are still a few brothers." Zhao Qingsong didn't hide it.
Li Xuanzhi worked in a meat factory and was very familiar with the price of pork. Zhao Qingsong formed a partnership with others and earned tens of thousands a year.
The size of the pig farm can be roughly calculated.
He glanced at his younger brother. He still had a job after returning from the army, but Zhao Qingsong, who was the same age as him, was bold enough to start a pig farm in partnership with others.
He looked at Zhao Qingsong with some appreciation, as if to praise: "Young man, you are quite courageous."
Brother Li didn't speak, but Zhao Qingsong just felt that this level had passed.
Li Ruizhi looked excited: "Okay, no wonder my sister and nephew are so fat. I thought you couldn't do anything because you were lame."
"Li Ruizhi!" Brother Li scolded, "Look at you, you haven't done anything right all day long! You can't even speak!"
He just scolded Li Ruizhi and did not persuade Zhao Qingsong to be relieved.
Zhao Qingsong also knew that the Li family must have been somewhat concerned about his physical disability before.
He pursed his lips.
These are final decisions and cannot be changed.
He can only become better and let Li Rong live a better life, and then the Li family will gradually look down on this.
Li Xuanzhi asked Zhao Qingsong about some business matters. After chatting more, he found that Zhao Qingsong looked at things and had many views that were advanced and unconventional. His feelings towards Zhao Qingsong became a little better.
If he hadn't been Li Rong's husband, maybe Li Kai and the others wouldn't be so harsh on him.
He was even willing to be friends with Zhao Qingsong.
By the end of the chat, the atmosphere gradually became less tense.
Li Kaizhi looked at Li Ruizhi with hatred and said: "Learn from others. You have become a soldier and a gangster. When you come back, you won't be able to do anything high or low. I don't know what you want to do!"
Li Ruizhi curled his lips, touched the tip of his nose, and muttered something in a low voice.
The soldier is very straightforward. He admires Zhao Qingsong and doesn't have the same opinion of him as before. He won't say anything about Zhao Qingsong.
Now being compared with Zhao Qingsong, he dares to admit that he is inferior to others and is not easy to talk back to.
On the dinner table.
Li's father asked Li Ruizhi to get a few bottles of liquor, and asked Zhao Qingsong if he could drink it.
Zhao Qingsong smiled: "People from province H can't say they can't drink."
A few grown men were drinking and chatting. After a few drinks, they started to talk nonsense.
Zhao Qingsong can also take over.
Li's mother gave birth to several children and brought up several grandchildren. Looking at An An's age, you can tell what kind of food he eats now.
She was worried that the little guy would only eat pasta, so she asked Li Rong first. After learning that the little guy didn't want to pick anything, she served a bowl of rice and cut the meat into thin strips. Looking at the posture, she was ready to feed An An.
Li Rong quickly stopped her and took the bowl: "He can eat by himself, don't let him eat it by himself. He has been letting him eat by himself a long time ago."
Li Rong also found a piece of meat with relatively large bones and let the little guy hold it and chew it.
The little guy grabbed the meat with both hands and looked at Mother Li with a moist pink mouth: "An'an can eat it by herself."
Li's mother looked at her grandson with distress: "You can eat it by yourself at such a young age?"
Li Rong smiled: "Don't worry about him, just eat and eat."
During the meal, Mother Li kept picking up vegetables for Li Rong and the little one.
The little guy can't even eat it, but he won't refuse it because his mother told him not to waste it when he was little, so he will eat whatever is given to him.
Li Rong used to make him rice according to the amount, just to let him learn to play CDs since he was a child.
She watched Mother Li keep picking up food for the little guy, and hurriedly stopped her: "Okay, okay, Mom, don't give him so much, he won't be able to finish it, eat yours quickly."
Mother Li withdrew her eyes and began to eat her meal.
Women and children will eat faster if they don’t drink.
Sit in the living room, eat fruit and chat.
There are many fruits that can be seen in the capital, and there are several kinds on the table. Li Mu asked them to go out and buy them in advance.
It was the first time for the little guy to eat grapes. He sat on the carpet and grabbed them to eat. Mother Li found out: "An'an likes to eat grapes?"
Grapes are the more expensive fruit available at this time, so I bought two bunches.
Mother Li saw that he liked to eat, so she put a whole bunch in front of him.
Li Rong frowned: "An'an, don't eat so much. You just finished eating. Usually if you eat too much, you will have diarrhea and abdominal pain."
An An's mouth bulged with grapes. She was holding two ordinary grapes in her hand and looked at Li Rong with her eyes open.
After realizing what Li Rong said, she loosened her hands and covered her stomach: "It hurts."
"It doesn't hurt, just eat if you want, just don't hold it on." Mother Li touched the little guy's belly and said, "You can still eat."
Li Rong squinted her eyes. She always felt that Li's mother seemed to be a little too spoiled to the little guy. Sure enough, they were married in another generation?
Her head hurt a little: "Don't feed him too much, it will cause diarrhea."
Li's mother only felt sorry for her grandson. She thought of the place where Li Rong went to the countryside, and there was no fruit there.
She began to ask about Li Rong's life in the countryside: "Is it freezing in the winter in Dajiang Village? There are no fruits there, right?"
"It's cold, but there's a kang, so it won't be too cold." Li Rong said, "He's never seen these grapes before, and they're sweet, so he's greedy."
In fact, what Li Rong wants to say is that even if there is fruit over there, ordinary people will not buy it.
Mother Li waved her hand: "Eat, and ask your uncle to buy it after you finish it."
She asked Li Rong many more questions. Li Rong had written replies in the past, but they were all written in one sentence, so Li's mother asked about details.
She knew that Li and Rong did not work, and she also knew that they had been separated from the old Zhao family.
I also asked Li Rong in the letter what they depended on for food.
Naturally, Li Rong would not tell her about doing business in the "free market", and she would just pass it off with a few words.
Now in front of Li's mother, he didn't say it out loud. He just said vaguely: "Zhao Qingsong is working outside, I don't care."
