Siheyuan diet for men and women

Chapter 1201 Try One

"The situation has changed, and the way and method of working must also change accordingly."

Li Xuewu gave cigarettes to Yin Mancang and Shen Guodong, and threw the rest to Lao Jiu, telling him to help himself.

Lao Jiu took the cigarette, looked at him embarrassedly, and got up with Lao Shi and others to go outside to smoke.

The Thirteen Guardians were scattered all over the place, and the biggest one in the capital was him. The ninth one was called Dai Yongxing.

What are they? They are disciples.

Whose disciples?

Anyway, it doesn’t belong to Li Xuewu. It belongs to whoever you work for.

"Those who can't keep up with the situation, what about now?"

Li Xuewu saw that the two men were holding cigarettes but had not lit them, and he knew that they were concerned about their family members.

"Not to mention what I saw with my own eyes, even what I heard was enough to warn me a hundred times."

"Yes, I know—"

Yin Mancang pinched the filter tip, nodded in agreement, and said, "It is always the case that the situation is stronger than people."

“I know that the current job is not easy.”

Li Xuewu picked up a match, struck it, and handed it to him, smiling and saying, "You must be feeling very sad, right?"

"Well--"

Yin Mancang first leaned forward to light a cigarette, then laughed and said, "What's so sad about that?"

Seeing Li Xuewu lighting a cigarette for Shen Guodong, he sighed, "Since you're taking advantage, don't act cute, right?"

"Hahaha--"

Li Xuewu smiled, extinguished the match in his hand, and threw it into the ashtray.
-
After dinner, Gu Ning coaxed the two children back upstairs, while Qin Jingru and her mother Liu Yin were cleaning up in the kitchen.

Yin Mancang and Shen Guodong, who came to deliver winter supplies to the family, were smoking, drinking tea and chatting with Li Xuewu in the living room.

Everyone in the family knew that Yin Mancang came to their house not just to visit, but also to talk to Li Xuewu.

You see, when we were in the compound, everyone interacted with each other, and there was nothing embarrassing about sitting in people's houses in the front and back yards.

But since Li Xuewu got married and moved here, few relatives or friends have come to visit.

Unless there is something important, such as Shen Guodong coming to deliver rice, flour, grain, oil and firewood, or Yu Li coming with documents.

On the one hand, he cares about Gu Ning, and on the other hand, he also takes care of Li Xuewu's identity.

After all, things are different now than before. If the place is really crowded, Li Xuewu will be restricted in doing his work.

Even if it is just normal visits between relatives, in the eyes of outsiders, it is also a crime of seeking personal gain.

Not to mention sending truckloads of things to his home, the neighbors who didn't know would think he had embezzled a lot.

Winter came early this year, and the temperature on the mountain is several degrees lower than that at the foot of the mountain.

So potatoes, cabbages, radishes and other things were delivered in mid-October.

It’s not that the Li family can’t afford the autumn vegetables, nor are they greedy for this small bargain. Besides, it’s not cheap at all.

Shen Guodong purchases the goods in bulk and distributes them to each household, which can be considered a kind of welfare.

Li Xuewu's side has more complete supplies, including coal, firewood, and kindling, all of which were arranged by Shen Guodong.

Just look at the people in Li Xuewu's family and you will know that if they were busy with all these things, they would definitely be overwhelmed.

Liu Yin and Qin Jingru have to take care of two children and do housework, and Qin Jingru has to go home at night.

Li Xuewu and Gu Ning don't look like the type of people who can take care of housework. Think about it, which of these two people looks like they can buy groceries?
One copy to Haiyan Warehouse No. 1, two copies to the back house in the courtyard and the Li family, one copy to the recycling warehouse, one copy to my third aunt Fei Shanying, one copy to Wang Yamei, and one copy to Sha Zhu's family.

This is because you have to take care of your own people and your own business, as well as your relatives and connections.

At Dong Wenxue's home, at godmother's home, at Director Ma's home at the supply and marketing cooperative...

These are all things from the mountains. They cost money if they are brought to the city, but they are worthless in the mountains.

But if you really send it home, that would be a huge favor, and it would be a really enviable honor.

Shen Guodong looked honest. No matter whose house he visited, he would either call her "Auntie" or "Auntie". Even though the neighbors knew he was there to give gifts, they just couldn't find any fault with him.

Isn't it more economical to drive a small truck to deliver winter specialties than to carry two bottles of wine to someone's door?
In fact, if you count them up, half of the things in the car may not be as valuable as those two bottles of wine, but they are the thought behind them.

You can not drink alcohol, but you can't not eat cabbage?

People in Beijing these days have a special affection for cabbage.

On the way back from the factory, Li Xuewu saw people distributing cabbages on both sides of the street.

Wow, they are piled up like a mountain, and they are brought home in carts. It seems like no matter how much they buy, it is never too much.

Only at this time are autumn vegetables available in unlimited quantities. They are the staple food for the entire winter.

If there is a woman at home who is skilled in cooking, she can cook the cabbage in eighteen different ways for you.

If you don't have any skills, you will eat the same thing for every meal, and your food will be even uglier than cabbage.

The autumn vegetables that Shen Guodong sent to his home had more varieties. In addition to the common autumn vegetables such as cabbage, radish, and potatoes, there were also green onions, garlic, carrots, dried chili peppers, etc.

As a special token of his appreciation, Yin Mancang also gave a roe deer, which was made of skinned meat strips, which was very exquisite.
-
“Actually, our commune is doing OK this year.”

Yin Mancang flicked the ash from his cigarette with a smile, nudged Shen Guodong with his arm, and said, "Isn't it better than previous years? It's better than other communes!"

"That's much stronger—"

Shen Guodong nodded and agreed: "The key is that there is no mess in the Red Star Commune."

"Actually, there is, but it's too far from the county town, and it's not convenient to go up the mountain."

Yin Mancang looked at Li Xuewu with a smile and said, "The road up the mountain is often broken down, especially when there is a call for inspection."

"Hahahaha - that's too mean -"

Shen Guodong smiled and said, "He even cheated his own people. My car has been in the dock twice."

"Then you are still lucky--"

Yin Mancang glanced at him and said, "The two boys put down a row of nails, but they didn't pierce you!"

"They dared to do that!" Shen Guodong curled his lips and said, "If I catch them, I will kick them into the trench."

"Hehehe——"

Yin Mancang chuckled, turned to Li Xuewu and said, "Actually, I was forced to do this."

"Just tell me, it's not easy to earn these two cents——"

He tapped his palm and calculated as he spoke to Li Xuewu: "As for farming, we are in the mountains, and the grain production is totally incomparable to that down there."

"Even so, our commune has to meet the public grain quota every year. Do you think I am worried?"

He bared his teeth, and said with a bit of resentment and ferocity in his tone: "If we really let those grandsons who eat people's food and do nothing else come up the mountain, will we still be able to survive?"

"Raising chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, dogs, sheep, rabbits, and cows, don't we want to live a good life?"

"Who doesn't want to be someone's grandson, right?"

Yin Mancang shook his shoulders, stretched his Zhongshan suit, and asked Shen Guodong.

"Yes, that's--" Shen Guodong nodded and agreed: "Grandson doesn't want to--"

"go--"

Yin Mancang made him laugh so irritatedly that he bumped him with his elbow.

The two of them dealt with each other a lot, and they were relatives in a roundabout way, so they had a very good relationship.

Calling him uncle, we usually have a lot of fun playing together.

If you call him uncle, you can't make jokes about it.

"But to be honest, although this year has been very unpleasant, it hasn't been that difficult for me."

Yin Mancang turned around and said to Li Xuewu seriously, "It should be said that the presence of the Wei San Regiment and the Red Star Factory in our village has really brought us a lot of convenience."

"Help each other—"

Li Xuewu nodded and said in agreement: "The Wei San Group talks about the close relationship between fish and water, and we talk about true feelings."

"Hehehe——" Shen Guodong found it funny to listen to Brother Wu's nonsense and started laughing.

Yin Mancang didn't care. Li Xuewu was saying the opposite of what he meant. It was a clear conflict of interest.

But the relationship between him and Li Xuewu is more than just a relationship of interest.

Just like the attitude he just expressed, it is true that the Red Star Commune borrowed the power of the Red Star Factory and the Wei San Regiment.

If it weren't for these two big mountains in the commune, the district and county might have ridiculed him.

"We are all sitting here, let's just chat..."

Yin Mancang tapped the armrest of the sofa and said, "More than a dozen large tiled houses were built in one year. Isn't that enviable?"

"There are brick kilns, pottery kilns, and vegetable greenhouses everywhere. Isn't that eye-watering?"

He nodded and said, "Right? We know it in our hearts. Who is good to us? Who is jealous of us?"

"I said at the village committee meeting, if anyone doesn't want to live in a brick house, or marry a wife and have children, then you are competing with me and the villagers, right?"

"Uncle, this year hasn't been easy either."

Shen Guodong nodded and explained seriously: "The pressure from above is great, and the pressure from below is also great."

"It was easier when we were poor. We all worked in the fields with bare buttocks and followed the instructions of the team leader."

He clapped his hands and said, "Now that we have some money in our pockets, the smart ones are building houses and pig pens, while the stupid ones are starting to find crooked ways."

"This gambling is a big harm—"

Li Xuewu understood what he meant. These days, gambling is the only thing that is worth money that can ruin a family.

After all, one of the other two cannot be brought in and the other is worthless. It is self-evident what Shen Guodong wants to say.

"Hey, the human heart is like the sea, it can't be blocked."

Yin Mancang sighed and said, "Anyway, I've already told the joint defense team. If they catch me, they'll beat me to death."

"We still have to pay attention to the methods and approaches."

Li Xuewu gave a little advice and asked, "How are the projects on the mountain going this year?"

"The only things related to our village are vegetables, fruit trees and brick factories."

Yin Mancang scratched his beard, then remembered something and added, "Oh, yes, there are also Chinese medicinal herbs."

"Your father advised us to find some vacant land to grow some medicinal herbs. These things are really valuable."

He tilted his head and said, "But this thing needs to be carefully taken care of. The Wei San Group is going to do it."

"We still think it's more practical to plant fruit trees and build vegetable greenhouses."

"The fruit trees are mainly used to supply canneries, and the vegetables can be used to make pickles in addition to supplying people down the mountain."

Shen Guodong explained to Li Xuewu, then looked at Yin Mancang and said, "In fact, Chinese medicine makes more money, uncle."

"I don't know?"

Yin Mancang sighed, shook his head slightly and said, "But among those in our commune who are short-sighted, how many have the patience to earn this money?"

"We deserve this heavy burden."
-
"Why did Uncle Mancang come here?"

It was not late at night. Yin Mancang, Shen Guodong and others only sat for a while, and then said goodbye and left after smoking two cigarettes.

I can't even smoke or drink tea freely in this room, and the same goes for talking to Li Xuewu.

He had long felt that the second son of his in-laws would not be an easy target, but in just two years, he had already become a source of pressure to him.

I have come here today and said what I want to say, that's all.

We won’t go back at night. Tomorrow morning, we will go back to the mountain with the truck carrying cabbages from the recycling station.

"One is to visit. After all, Mom is at our house."

Li Xuewu lay on the bed, shook his head and found a comfortable position.

Looking at Gu Ning sitting in front of the dressing table, combing her hair, she continued to explain, "The other thing is about what happened in the mountains."

"Are you here to ask for my opinion or to ask for your help?"

Gu Ning didn't care much about this, he just asked casually and reminded him: "I saw him hesitate to speak during the meal."

"You must be feeling uneasy," Li Xuewu picked up the book on the bedside table and started flipping through it. He said casually, "When a person suddenly gets something, he will first doubt his own ability."

"What abilities do you doubt?"

Gu Ning stood up, glanced at Li Ning in the crib, then walked over to the bed and sat down.

Li Xuewu turned a page and said, "I doubt whether I have the right to use these things."

This statement is unclear. Is it mysterious or nonsense?

Gu Ning looked back at him, rubbed the remaining hand oil on his hands, twisted his body and lay down.

"I thought I was asking you for help."

"Well, not really. What's wrong?"

Li Xuewu tilted his head to look at her and asked, "What did mom say to you?"

"No, what can mom say--"

Gu Ning lay on the pillow and looked at the ceiling, saying, "I was thinking, when you encounter someone asking you to do something for me, how should you handle it and refuse it?"

"Someone asked you to do something?"

Li Xuewu knew that she always ignored the social conventions of her family, so there must be a reason why she suddenly asked about it.

From the time they met until now, especially after they got married, he had taught Gu Ning several times.

But her mind was not so clever, and she had no idea of ​​worldly affairs.

So something has changed, but not much.

Most of the time, it’s about getting along with family members, so she can’t let people say anything rude, otherwise she won’t like it.

Li Xuewu takes care of all the relationships with relatives and friends at home, and it is Li Xuewu who goes to give gifts during festivals.

These can be dealt with, except for work relationships.

After Li Xuewu taught her or helped her to ease the relationships in the department, she also had more interpersonal contacts at work.

Nowadays, colleagues in the unit also give gifts of money. When they got married, colleagues from the hospital came to the banquet.

Correspondingly, when colleagues were doing things, Gu Ning had to go as well.

This is really hard for her. Even though the situation is tense during this period, everyone still has to do their jobs.

People will not be happy if you always fail to attend the banquet due to gift money, after all, what you lack is more than just a gift money.

What does it mean to show support to someone? On a happy day, it's a lively occasion and the food is all prepared. But if there are not enough people, where would the face be?

But once you sit down, there is a lot to say.

In the department and in the hospital, many things that are difficult to talk about can be said in a joking tone at the table.

If you don't agree to him, everyone will lose face and it will be so embarrassing.

But if you agree to him, he will be so arrogant and chase you to do things.

Everyone in the hospital knew Gu Ning’s background and connections.

You said that your parents and brothers are no longer in the capital and that they have lost their relationship long ago, but who would believe it?
The relationship with my mother’s family is gone, but what about the one with my husband’s family?
Many people who now ask her to do things for them are here for Li Xuewu.

He has status in the local area, has a part-time job in the garrison area, and is also a leader of the Red Star Factory.

There have been more and more topics about Red Star Factory recently, especially those related to education.

No matter at what stage, children's education is always the top priority for parents.

It is very difficult to get a place in the Red Star United School. Many people in Beijing have been disappointed.

Those who knew Li Xuewu's identity tried to save the country in a roundabout way.

Gu Ning has an innocent face and is not good at speaking, so several people used words to pressure her. As long as she agrees to one of them, everything else will be easy.

Even if it's just spending some money or giving some gifts.

"Silly, why didn't you tell me what happened?"

After listening to her story, Li Xuewu closed the book in his hand, tapped her nose and asked, "Are you stupid?"

Gu Ning slapped his hand away and said helplessly and depressedly: "They all said that..."

"What did you say?"

Li Xuewu turned around, put the book away, leaned on his arm and lay down beside her, saying, "Do you care so much about what they say?"

"Where is the former Doctor Ice and Snow?"

He deliberately teased his wife and asked, "Where is your aura that keeps people at a distance?"

Gu Ning's breathing gradually became heavier, and he stared at Li Xuewu without saying a word.

She was really angry. It was him who helped her to ease the relationship with her colleagues in the department, and it was also him who was teasing her now.

No matter what, he is always right, right?
"I'll teach you how to say it," Li Xuewu propped his head up with his right hand and put his left hand on Gu Ning's stomach, and asked, "But how are you going to repay me?"

"Beat you violently?"

Gu Ning gently patted his big hand, stared at him and reminded him: "You woke the child up, you go and comfort him!"

"If you use this ruthlessness in interpersonal relationships, will you be bothered by these social conventions?"

Li Xuewu was not afraid of his wife's threats at all. He looked at her and said, "If someone asks you to do something again, just agree to it. But don't be too realistic."

"It's inevitable among colleagues. You help me, I help you. It's normal."

He rubbed his wife's belly and said, "Some requests do not violate the principles and can be done if they are casual."

"What about those who violate the principles?"

Gu Ning tilted his head, looked at him seriously and asked, "For example, asking you to help with the admission procedures."

"I taught you—"

Li Xuewu smiled and said, "Promise him, but don't make it final."

"It's the same for everything. No one likes to be rejected. Try not to use negative words like 'no' in conversation. You can express your embarrassment in a tactful way."

He taught Gu Ning: "If someone asks me to help you with the admission, just tell me the relevant materials. At most, I will just let them take another exam and interview."

"You've prepared well and passed. Everyone is happy," Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows and said, "If you still fail, you can say that someone from the investigation team is here."

"Is there really someone from the investigation team?"

Gu Ning was stunned for a moment, looked at him and asked, "Are you here to investigate this matter?"

"You're just making it up. Our factory's own school is at best a research team, not an investigation team."

Li Xuewu didn't even need to draft his lies, and he said casually: "You said there is, can he still track it down?"

"Is this okay?"

Gu Ning widened his eyes and asked hesitantly, "Is it a little fake?"

"Well, that expression of yours is a bit fake."

Li Xuewu pursed his lips and nodded, saying, "In fact, if things don't get done, people will know that you didn't help."

"But you promised well when you asked for the favor, and you didn't say that confidently. He can't blame you, right?"

He patted his wife's face and said, "Besides, whatever he thinks is just speculation. For the sake of face, even if he doesn't accept your kindness, he won't bear a grudge against you."

"But when you reply to him, you must use a regretful and helpless expression, and your words must reveal understanding and regret."

"That's it..."

Gu Ning frowned slightly, pondering the techniques he taught him.

While she was thinking, Li Xuewu's hands started to move naughtily.

It was exchanged for knowledge, so what!
I'm so tough, are you scared?
"Hey--"

Gu Ning was startled by him, and pinched his big hand with both hands, reminding him: "I'm having my period."

"Is this true?" Li Xuewu looked at her suspiciously and asked, "Are you lying to me?"

"Screw you--"

Gu Ning's expression was full of regret and helplessness, and he said in a tone that he knew was full of understanding and regret: "It's true."

"Gu Ning, you've become a bad person——"

Li Xuewu glared and said angrily: "I taught you these so that you can use them to deal with others, not to fool your lover!"

"You don't take me seriously at all. You just learned something from me and you're using it on me?"

"You! Oh! The child is awake—"
-
On Sunday, the family was busy preparing sauerkraut. Mother Liu Yin and Qin Jingru were busy, while Gu Ning was taking care of the children.

Li Xuewu was going to the club, so he took a walk around the courtyard first.

When I saw the news in the newspaper in Gangcheng, I guessed that my elder brother and sister-in-law must be worried.

Of course, this also includes the third brother on the mountain.

Although his family was anxious about resuming classes, Li Xuewu was not.

Working relationships will not be cleared up in a short time, and the important thing is to understand the current situation.

"Hey - who's back?"

Yu Shui came out of the back house and saw Li Xuewu entering the yard wearing a black fur-collared leather jacket. He couldn't help but tease, "You're dressed like a blind bear. It's so ugly—"

"Is it bothering you?"

Li Xuewu glanced at her and asked, "Where's your brother?"

"Going to hunt the blind bear!"

Yu Shui rolled his eyes, snorted, and walked towards the west yard.

Li Xuewu looked at the girl's back and felt uncomfortable no matter how he looked at her.

How come a good girl has a mouth?

A leather jacket with a fur collar is like a blind bear, so what is a fur collar coat?
You know what, he really has a fur collar coat.

The leather jacket was custom-made by myself. There is a leather factory in the tertiary industry of the factory, and Master Li from a prison has excellent craftsmanship.

It’s not the fur collar coat. There was one in the luggage I brought back this time. It was a gift from Zhou Yamei.

It was said to be Russian goods, but Li Xuewu didn't ask where or how it came from, and even if he asked, she couldn't explain it clearly.

There is only one channel to get this thing, and that is "coming through privately".

You say it's impossible, the relations are not harmonious these days, and there can't be such trade.

In fact, the relationship between countries should not be judged simply by one or two events, and we should not blindly follow others.

What do you think the relationship between China and South Korea will be like in the future?
That's a serious strategic partnership.

We have been South Korea's largest trading partner for 20 consecutive years. What does this mean?
It buys more than 300 billion worth of our goods every year. Do you say it is a country with which we have bad relations?
On the other hand, although North Korea was cold during this period, it did not build a border wall like Trump did.

You say the relationship is tense, but can it be so tense that the white elephant was beaten so hard that it had to change the capital?
We must look at problems from multiple angles and think and analyze them independently.

As long as there is a market for this thing, it can dig a hole and walk out by itself. Do you believe it?
Correspondingly, you say that the situation is not good during this period, but shouldn’t ordinary people still live their lives as usual?

"This cabbage is really good—"

Li Xuewu walked into the hanging flower gate and glanced at the third uncle who was squatting at the foot of the wall tidying up a pile of cabbages.

He greeted her with a smile, "Want to buy so many?"

"There's a bumper crop of cabbages this year. Didn't you read the newspaper?"

Yan Fugui was holding a kitchen knife in his hand, peeling rotten cabbage leaves, as carefully as if he was carving a pattern.

He was afraid of cutting off the good parts, which would be too painful.

"Buy more to fill your stomach and contribute to the cooperative, don't you think?"

"You are still aware..."

Li Xuewu looked at him curiously, nodded and said, "Why didn't the street office arrange for a newspaper to interview you?"

"This is totally wrong." He said to an old man who was walking over, "I think an excellent example like the third uncle should be praised in a big way!"

"But when it comes to being in the newspapers, your image is not very good."

Li Xuewu smiled and blinked his eyes, teasing him: "The pen needs to be stuck, and the cigarette on the ear can't be kept. Change it to a pencil..."

"Go to hell—"

Yan Fugui threw a cabbage leaf over and said with a smile, "You're embarrassing me, aren't you?"

"He was looking at your clothes. What a pity—"

Yi Zhonghai looked at him with a smile and praised him, "You made new clothes just now?"

"Where? Shuqin made it."

Yan Fugui explained with a smug look on his face: "I just changed into it and was about to go out, when I got the job."

He pointed at the cabbages in his hand and said, "Hurry up and pick them up today. If they are dried in the sun for a few days, they will freeze."

"Hey! Is this a gift from my daughter-in-law?"

Sha Zhu chased up from Chuihua Gate and heard what Li Xuewu was doing.

At this moment, he laughed and said, "How fresh! Is your show a happy ending?"

"Nonsense——"

Yan Fugui curled his lips and said, "What kind of show can our family have? A harmonious family brings prosperity. It has always been——"

"I believe that!"

Sha Zhu pouted his big mouth and gave a thumbs up, saying, "Then I told everyone outside that my third uncle's family is the most harmonious in the whole courtyard, mainly because my third uncle is a serious person!"

"Hey! You caught me!"

Yan Fugui put down the kitchen knife, stood up, walked over and asked, "Why, are you free?"

"Have one?"

Sha Zhu took out a cigarette and passed it over Li Xuewu and gave it directly to the first and third uncles.

He raised his eyebrows and said, "I don't have time to spare. I'm just here to learn martial arts."

"Why, is the matter in Steel City finished?"

"It's not over yet. How can the work ever end?"

Li Xuewu put his hands in his pockets, facing the warm morning sun, looked at him and asked, "Is the backyard tidy?"

"There's nothing to pack. What do you have?"

Sha Zhu tilted his head and said, "The old lady didn't leave behind anything good, just a bed and a few cabinets."

"I've collected all the junk. I've sold what needs to be sold, thrown away what needs to be thrown away, and given away what needs to be used."

He took a puff of his cigarette and introduced, "The back room is not in use for the time being, so I thought of making a kang. It's useful here, so we don't have to look for a place to stay outside."

"How many times can it be used?"

Li Xuewu glanced at him and said, "Maybe the factory will replace the house next year. Do you have any ideas?"

"Zhu Zi dared to be so kind——"

Yan Fugui interrupted and said, "He has three rooms with cross-rooms, plus the one in the backyard."

He looked at Li Xuewu and asked, "How big a building can this be exchanged for?"

"Let's wait and see, we don't know what's going on yet."

Sha Zhu hesitated and said, "I like living in a bungalow. Besides, Diliya is still here."

He looked back and explained, "If I can really move to a new house next year, I will buy Yu Shui a smaller one."

"That's what I think," Yi Zhonghai nodded and said, "I've been to high-rise buildings before, and they always seem cramped. It's more convenient to live in a house like this."

"Tsk - you're just thinking too much!"

Yan Fugui put his hands in his sleeves, not caring whether the clothes were new or not, and said with a sigh, "It's cleaner to live in the building."

"Look at the mess on the ground, the broken houses and the rotten tiles. What's so rare about them? I want to move to a building."

He gestured behind him and whispered, "Our second kid said that when the time comes, he will grant me the qualification to exchange the house, let me and his mother move upstairs, and he will live in our house."

"How do you calculate it?" Li Xuewu glanced at him and asked, "Exchange his small house for a building?"

"It's mainly because of Shuqin's qualifications," Yan Fugui explained thoughtfully, "Use the ear room and add a little money to buy a house of more than 20 square meters for us old couple, which is enough for us to live in."

"If it's just you and the third aunt, 20 square meters is enough," Li Xuewu raised his eyes and pointed to the door opposite, and asked, "What about the two little ones?"

"You don't care about your son or daughter anymore?"

"Hey, how can that be——"

Yan Fugui said with a hint of pride: "The second kid has figured it out. He asked me and his mother to go upstairs and enjoy the good life. He brought Jie Kuang and Jie Di to live in this room, saying it was just right."

"Isn't this just right—"

Sha Zhu raised his eyebrows, exchanged glances with Li Xuewu, and praised: "You were the one who came up with this idea, right? It must be you! Yan Jiefang is not that smart!"

"Hey - a harmonious family brings prosperity!"

Yan Fugui didn't deny it, but he couldn't suppress the smile and pride on his face.

Li Xuewu and the other two who were looking at him looked at each other, thinking that this was one good show after another!

When the old man plotted against his son and daughter-in-law, it was unclear whether his son was ruthless or his daughter-in-law was impatient. This was to teach Yan Fugui a lesson.

Don't tell me, he is still feeling smug here!
"Why are you talking about Qiu Yi?"

Zhao Yafang sat on the kang, playing with the child on the kang, and turned around to glance at her second uncle.

Li Xuewu, however, sat face to face with his elder brother, playing chess with pieces that had been polished to a shiny finish.

This chess set is very old. It has been in Li Xuewu's family since he can remember.

When he was a kid and hadn't started to act naughty, he still remembered the old lady teaching him and his brothers how to play chess.

But later on, the memory became gradually blurred, and more joy was felt when we were playing outside.

"I was showing off to me, and Brother Zhu heard it."

Li Xuewu got off his horse and sat on a stool to explain: "Just think about it, there is no good word in his mouth."

"It's not right for you to go here—"

Li Xuewen reminded his brother: "I want to eat your horse and I can also kill you."

"Oh, then try one."

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows with a wicked smile and said, "It doesn't matter. I only have a leather jacket. I can afford to lose."

"I can't afford to lose, so what?"

Li Xuewen frowned and looked at him, but then frowned and stared at the chessboard.

He said he wanted to eat horse, and Li Xuewu let him eat it, but now he couldn't bring himself to eat it.

Don’t think it’s that simple. Li Xuewen knows his younger brother best. He may seem vague, but he is actually extremely cunning!

He will never suffer any loss or be cheated, and he will always have the best life.

Zhao Yafang glanced at the two brothers and said with a smile, "You are so grown up, but you are still like children."

"It's okay. My brother wants to buy me clothes."

Li Xuewu chuckled and continued to put pressure on his elder brother.

In fact, he is not very good at playing chess, but he is very good at playing cunning tricks.

Zhao Yafang was too lazy to talk to the brothers. She took a toy to tease Li Tang and asked, "The school wrote to us and asked us to go back and register."

"Then let's go back," Li Xuewu picked up the cup and took a sip of hot tea, and said casually: "Just do whatever you are told to do. You can't stay at home all the time."

"But it doesn't matter if it's a little later."

He put down his teacup, turned around and said to his sister-in-law, "Ask your uncle to write a document for you two, saying that you are supporting agriculture in Hongxing Village and cannot leave for the time being."

"Really?"

Zhao Yafang was slightly stunned. Her second brother-in-law was so noisy that she couldn't tell whether what he said was true or false.

"I'm taking care of the kids at home, and everyone in the neighborhood knows about it. What if the school asks about it..."

"Just ask, the materials are not fake."

Li Xuewu turned his head and stared at the chessboard, reminding his elder brother: "Don't move the chess pieces, I remember everything!"

"Who do you take me for—"

Li Xuewen frowned angrily, looking as if he didn't want to pay attention to him.

However, Zhao Yafang was looking at Kele. It was clear that he was about to change the chess piece just now.

Li Xuewen is always gentle and scholarly in front of everyone, but in front of her and her second uncle, he acts like a normal young man.

Secretly changing chess pieces is something only children would do, and it is only used when these two brothers play chess.

"Don't worry, no one will ask."

Li Xuewu turned around and explained: "Do you know how bad the current management of the teaching staff in your school is?"

"Even if you go back now, I guess, just like you just said, report in."

He twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "Perhaps the school just wants to see if you scattered teachers are still here, breathing heavily."

"As for the start of school, let's wait a little longer."

"Your visit to Steel City this time has given him courage—"

Yu Li placed the materials on Li Xuewu's desk and said with a smile, "Ten cargo ships were ordered all at once."

"That wasn't his money," Li Xuewu said without even looking up. "Gangcheng ordered the ship from the mainland, but it was just Dongfeng Shipping's account."

"Dongfeng Shipping ordered the ship and then leased it to Shunfeng Ocean Shipping in Gangcheng?"

Yu Li thought for a moment and asked, "Why do you do this...for what?"

"Think carefully. If you can't figure it out, read more books."

Li Xuewu picked up the teacup and took a sip, then frowned and asked, "Why has the taste of this tea changed?"

"Green tea, don't you like it?"

Yu Li took the teacup and said, "I thought you liked it, so I prepared it especially for you."

"It hurts your stomach. Switch to black tea. It's winter now."

Li Xuewu casually informed him, then looked at the materials in his hand and asked, "Has the news from Hong Kong City come back?"

"It's said to be quite intense," Yu Li put down her teacup and helped him find relevant information, saying, "With several capital forces involved, it seems that it is no longer just a matter of acquiring Watsons."

"What's the problem?" Li Xuewu curled his lips in disdain and said, "It's not about taking back Hong Kong City."

"Someone who deals with finance, or something more specific."

He pointed at the materials in his hand and said to Li: "They all like to look at data. When it comes to speaking and executing, they are all paranoid that data will not lie."

"Actually?"

Yu Li asked curiously: "Shouldn't the data be true? How can it be deceptive?"

"You are wrong. It is not the data that deceives people, but people who use data to deceive others."

Li Xuewu put down the document in his hand and said, "You know that these data are true?"

"All the companies listed on the stock market should be taken out, shaken and squeezed to remove the water content."

He pointed at the materials and said, "If they can disclose the financial report truthfully with even 1% of the information, I would consider them saints!"

"The game played by Oriental Times Bank is a scam, it's just that the game is bigger."

"Now that you've said that, there are no good people out there."

Yu Li smiled and said, "I don't understand the stock market or finance, I just know that Lou Xiao'e is having a headache."

"So you wrote to me to ask for help from the miracle doctor, right?"

Li Xuewu smiled with a hint of pride and said, "She asked the right person. Our family has a tradition of medicine that has been passed down from generation to generation. We are the reincarnation of Bian Que."

"When you have a headache, treat the head. When you have a foot pain, treat the foot."

As he spoke, he wrote two words on the paper and said, "Tell her to take the medicine on time."

"What the hell is this?"

Yu Li looked at the note in her hand. There were only two words on it. "What does British Pound mean?"

She didn't think this was a prescription, let alone a medicine inducer. She couldn't eat pounds, right?
Hey! She actually guessed it right.

Even though Li Xuewu was thousands miles away, he could tell what kind of headache Lou Xiao'e was suffering from.

It's all about money. Too much money is a headache, too little money is a headache. This is the case for bankers all over the world.

At this time and with these symptoms, it is a good time to eat some pounds. Maybe you can become fat.

Of course, Oriental Times Bank is not big enough, so if it wants to eat everyone together, it must start from Hong Kong City.

This can be considered as a ticket for Lou Xiao'e to become a tycoon in Hong Kong. If things go wrong, she may even be called a Justice of the Peace in the future.

Peaceful? Haha, there is no peace among these people.

Ps: Guess what medicine this is?
