"...Everything else was mentioned briefly, but when I mentioned you, I asked very detailed questions. I think this matter is very strange. Someone must be targeting us."
After listening to Li Zhengxing's words, Chen Lishu also frowned and thought seriously. The first thing she thought of was the Sun family, but as far as she knew, the Sun family was full of bad debts now, and they definitely didn't have the energy to do anything else. Otherwise, who else could there be?
Chen Lishu raised her head and saw the Yimin Store not far across the road. She thought of something and said to Li Zhengxing: "Jiang Weiguo from the Yimin Store came to see me two days ago and said he wanted to purchase goods, but I couldn't agree on the price, so I rejected him.
."
When he came over, Li Zhengxing also saw the Yimin Store not far away. At that time, he didn't take it seriously. Now after listening to Chen Lishu's words, he suddenly remembered that Jiang Weiguo asked him to buy fabrics, and his face suddenly became a little ugly.
Li Zhengxing is a smiling fox. He always smiles to everyone. Even when he is most angry, the smile on his face is relatively light. People who don't know him always think that he has a very good temper. To show his emotions like this now shows that Jiang Weiguo is a thorough man.
It made people angry.
"Xiao Chen, you don't have to worry about this, just leave it to me." If you want to touch Li Zhengxing, then let's see how capable Jiang Weiguo is.
…
At the end of August, the renovated dormitory was successfully completed, and Chen Lishu successfully received the balance payment.
It seems that they have been out for almost two months, and soon the team will be busy with farming. After this work is over, Gu Xingguo and the others plan to go home.
As agreed before, Chen Lishu paid each person 60 yuan, plus a bonus of 20 yuan.
Liu Dashan looked at the fifty-five yuan in his hand while the others had eighty, and felt very uncomfortable. He wanted to say something, but Chen Lishu was not Lin Qi. He had also heard Gu Xingmin say it, and he hesitated again and again, but still did not dare to say a word.
"Sister-in-law, we have bought our tickets and we will take the train tomorrow morning."
Gu Xingye scratched his head as he spoke and showed his big white teeth in embarrassment: "It's a rare trip to the provincial capital. We want to go to the mall to buy something, but we are afraid that Xiaoju and the others won't like it. See if you can take us there.
Help me choose."
"Yes, these women are actually the most troublesome. Logically speaking, you can just pay the money, but if you go back empty-handed, they will definitely think you are inconsiderate. If the purchase is not what you want, they will definitely complain about spending money in vain. It's really messed up.
I don’t understand, ugh!” Zhao Qi couldn’t help but complain.
"Your sister-in-law has been talking about buying a pair of sandals before, and I don't know what style is good. Dongzi's wife has good taste, so she can help as a consultant." Zhang Tiezhu continued.
Chen Lishu couldn't help but sip when she saw the sincere smiles on the faces of the men who were tanned by the summer sun when they got the money, and the simple love unconsciously revealed in their voices even though they complained about their mothers-in-law.
Mouth smiles.
"Okay, I will go to the shopping street with everyone in the afternoon. There is a department store there with a full range of goods."
Because she didn't go home this summer, and Gu Xingguo and the others were about to go back, Chen Lishu bought some things for her parents and several younger sisters and took them back with them.
Lin Qi had been away from the county town for a long time. It happened that the provincial town was not so busy, so Chen Lishu asked him to go back too.
In the village at the other end, Chen Liyuan and Gu Xingping had packed their things and were about to leave for the county town to catch the train.
Her performance in the college entrance examination this year was relatively stable, and her score exceeded the cutoff for college admission. The Ding family and Ding Chen helped with reference and applied for the Electric Power College, which is located next to Ding Chen University of Engineering.
"Your third sister-in-law is busy and it's not convenient to eat in the city. This year, the team at home has been allocated an extra portion of the private land. If you go over there, bring more. Here are the cowpeas and melons. Inside the jar are the salted duck eggs I pickled.
, your third sister-in-law is willing to eat it."
While Li Xiulan was tidying up, she started pointing at the things on the ground one by one and giving instructions.
"Mom, how can I carry so many things by myself?" Gu Xingping looked at the luggage and a big bag at her feet and said with some embarrassment.
"You don't need to do anything, I'll let your dad see you off later."
Gu Xingping had nothing to say: "Okay then."
Liu Yuemin looked at Li Xiulan packing up the large and small parcels, and felt a little uncomfortable: "Mom, there are only less than fifty salted duck eggs in total. You brought half of them to the three younger brothers and sisters in one go, and you took so many things.
Those who didn’t know better thought you were going to evacuate your home.”
"Second daughter-in-law, don't just stare at this thing in front of you all day long. Boss and second daughter-in-law and the brothers used to not be taken care of by the third daughter-in-law. They are all a family. If they are gone, let's pick them up."
"Mom, what you said is really interesting. Didn't the child's father and others also work for the three younger siblings in the past?"
Li Xiulan didn't bother to talk to her in detail. She straightened up and looked at her and said angrily: "What's wrong with working? If you didn't want to ask your eldest brother to do it before, why did you ask him to do it?"
Liu Yuemin choked and angrily hugged her child and turned around to go back to her room.
Soon, Li Xiulan saw that everything was almost done, and gave Gu Xingping a few words before asking Gu Shoufu to push the bicycle to send the two children to the county town.
Ding Chen was waiting at the entrance of the train station early in the morning. When he saw Gu Xingping and the others coming, his eyes lit up and he quickly walked a few steps over to help get things.
"Hello, uncle."
Gu Shoufu had met Ding Chen twice before when he was delivering things to Gu Xingping. He knew he was a steady boy and had a good impression of him. He smiled and nodded: "I'll ask you to take more care of the two girls."
"Uncle, don't worry, I will definitely get them to the place safely."
Gu Xingping took a look at the time and said, "Let's go quickly. The train should be arriving at the station soon. Dad, please go back quickly on such a hot day. There are three of us, so don't worry."
Gu Shoufu was worried, so he carried the things all the way and put the person in the car before turning around and leaving.
Soon the train started moving slowly, but Gu Xingping couldn't calm down for a long time.
She and Chen Lishu had taken this train to the provincial capital before, but this time she was admitted to university, so she couldn't help but feel more longing and yearning in her heart.
Seeing that school was about to start in two days, Chen Lishu left all the affairs of the store to Wang Aixiang, while she concentrated on preparing for the start of school for her and Ruirui.
That day, she was sewing clothes for Ruirui at home when there was a knock on the door. She quickly put down her work and opened the door. When she saw Gu Xingping, Chen Liyuan and Ding Chen standing at the door, Chen Lishu was stunned for a moment.
"You didn't mean to call me before getting in the car so I could pick you up. Why did you come here without saying a word?"
Chen Liyuan smiled: "Sister Xingping insisted on giving you a surprise."
"It's hot outside, come in quickly." Chen Lishu helped get things, and Zhao Qiuyue quickly went to pour water for a few people.
"Why do you carry so many things?" Chen Lishu couldn't help but asked curiously as she looked at the large and small packages on the ground, each of which was very heavy.
