Chapter 74: This meal must be eaten, right?
"Don't look at it, just do what you need to do!" Yi Zhonghai was really tired tonight. Seeing Qin Huairu come out covered in filth, he felt distressed and helpless. He hugged Huaihua and quickly gave orders, "Second Aunt, Third Aunt, I will compensate for your clothes. Anyway, they are all dirty, so go into the house with Huairu to clean them up. In addition, I will give each of you one dollar as a reward for your hard work. It's all a favor from neighbors!"

"Old Yi, you are generous. I admire your generosity!" Before the third aunt agreed, Yan Bugui took over the conversation, glanced at his family members obscurely, and waved his hand, "This is what I should do. My dear, you should pack up and go help!"

"Hey, hey!" When the third aunt heard that Yi Zhonghai would not only compensate for the clothes but also give money, she was immediately overjoyed. She pulled the second aunt and said with a smile: "Guangqi's mother, we are all neighbors. There is nothing we can do about the Jia family's problem. Let's help them!"

"Okay, let's go for it!" The second aunt had already exchanged glances with Liu Haizhong a few times. Since there was money to be made, she was not so resistant anymore.

Sha Zhu helped Qin Huairu up and sat her on the steps. He then tied up the door curtain himself, went into the house and brought out all the hemp ropes and threw them on the ground.

Xu Damao said with a smile: "Hey, Shazhu, your rope came in very handy today!"

"Get out of here!" Sha Zhu became annoyed when he heard him talking. Seeing Xu Damao's servile look and refusing to leave, he smiled obscenely, stretched out his hand to wipe himself, and pretended to rush over to wipe him.

"Fuck, you are so wicked!" Xu Damao was shocked and ran away.

Sha Zhu then looked at Yan Jiecheng, Liu Guangtian...

"Shazhu, you are sincere!" Liu Guangfu jumped up and pulled his brothers to run to the backyard desperately.

Yan Jiecheng took the opportunity to hug his third son Yan Jiekuang and ran away without looking back.

Seeing Sha Zhu's attitude, no one dared to stay and they all ran away as if they were escaping for their lives.

"Huh? Why are you all gone? Jie Cheng, is my mom okay?" Jia Dongxu came in from the hanging flower gate, holding a bag of Chinese medicine wrapped in oil paper in his hand, and was stunned.

"Jia Dongxu, go and see your wife!" Yan Jiecheng said this and disappeared.

"..." Jia Dongxu grinned. Before he could curse, he saw Qin Huairu, who looked like a drowned chicken. The medicine bag in her hand fell to the ground. He was stunned and saw his eldest son, the culprit. He was immediately furious and shouted, "Bang Geng!"

The yard suddenly became chaotic again.

He Yushui took advantage of the chaos to pull the corner of Li Xiangdong's clothes and pointed at the machete on the ground: "Brother Dong, your knife! Do you still want it?"

"Yes, of course! That's your brother Dong's business!" Li Xiangdong smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, you have to clean this knife, boil it in boiling water to sterilize it, and return it to me!"

"Of course, of course!" Qin Huairu stood up tiredly and said uncomfortably: "Xiangdong, thank you!"

"It's okay! It's just a piece of cake!" Li Xiangdong waved his hand and turned to leave.

"Xiangdong, I want to thank you on behalf of Grandma Zhang!" Yi Zhonghai quickly improved his image.

Li Xiangdong didn't look back, but waved his arms in the air.

He Yushui whispered, "No, Brother Dong, the knife is dirty, do you still want it?"

"You're a fool!" Li Xiangdong flicked her head and said mischievously, "When I was in the countryside, I used this knife to castrate countless animals and cut open countless stomachs! This is nothing! I'll clean it up later!"

"That's right!" He Yushui shook his head and said with admiration: "Brother Dong, you are really strong today! Just by analyzing the face, you can tell what disease Jia Zhang has. I have seen people diagnose pulses with hanging threads before, but I have never seen this kind of diagnose pulses from a distance! You are really amazing!"

"Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes observation, auscultation, questioning and palpation. This is only the most basic method of judgment! Your surprise is yet to come!" Li Xiangdong pursed his lips and smiled.

Following him into the house, He Yushui rolled up her sleeves and quickly cleaned the table, "Brother Dong, please sit for a while. I'll wash your dishes and clean up the place! I can't eat your food for free. I haven't thanked you yet!"

Knowing he couldn't refuse, Li Xiangdong nodded, prepared some tea, drank a cup to quench his thirst, and then brought in the medicine pot for boiling glue to wash for her.

"Brother Dong, if the Liu and Yan families invite you to dinner again, will you still go?" He Yushui asked while squatting beside the stove washing dishes, raising her smart eyes.

"Go to hell!" Li Xiangdong shook his head, "Who's in the mood to eat now!" "That's right!" He Yushui chuckled and lowered his head to concentrate on his work.

Speak of the devil, he appears. A shadow flashed at the door, and two figures walked in. This time they were Yan Bugui and Liu Haizhong, the two heads of the family.

"Xiangdong, are you having tea?"

"Xiangdong, you were amazing today. I, Old Yan, am really impressed!"

"Stop, I know what you want to say!" Li Xiangdong raised his hand and said straight to the point: "Can you still eat tonight?"

Yan Bugui and Liu Haizhong looked at each other, pulled the corners of their mouths, twitched the muscles of their lips several times, sighed, and sat down.

"Then I'll treat you to dinner tomorrow night!" Yan Bugui pushed his glasses and spoke first.

"Why?" Liu Haizhong slammed the table, "I gave away all the canned food..."

Li Xiangdong rolled his eyes, stood up and took the can of yellow peaches from the chest of drawers.

“Hey, hey, hey,” Liu Haizhong was so scared that he quickly stood up, “Xiangdong, that’s not what I meant!”

"That's not what I meant. I don't want it either! You're old, and eating some canned food can help you replenish your body! Why do I need this? I don't want to receive something without doing anything. I'm already taking advantage of you treating me to a meal!"

Liu Haizhong put his hand on the can, exclaimed, and said in surprise: "Xiangdong, do you agree?"

"Do we have to eat this meal?" Li Xiangdong was speechless. Seeing Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui nodding sullenly, he said helplessly, "That's fine. Take this can home! Go to your third uncle's house tomorrow, and your second uncle's house the day after tomorrow! Let's arrange it this way. Stop arguing. I'm tired too!"

Yan Bugui was immediately delighted, while Liu Haizhong looked depressed. They were about to speak when they heard a loud cry of "Aiya" coming from the yard.

He Yushui stood up and ran to the window to take a look, then shook his head and said, "Bang Geng is going to suffer this time!"

"Okay, okay, you two don't have to wait any longer. I mean what I said and I will go to eat! Let's go. I'm tired today!" Li Xiangdong ordered them to leave.

"Okay then. I'll wait for you!"

"me too!"

Yan Bugui and Liu Haizhong stood up, said goodbye and left.

Walking out of the door and onto the veranda, Lieutenant General Liu Hai grabbed the Third Uncle and said with a half-smile, "Old Yan, I told you that you are so stingy, yet you still want to treat Xiangdong to a meal. Why are you doing this? Is it worth it?"

"Whether it's worth it or not, I'm willing to do it. It's your business!" Anyway, his son's matter was settled, and Yan Bugui was no longer afraid of the second uncle.

"Haha, you're just an elementary school teacher, and you still expect Li Xiangdong to help you transfer? You're dreaming!" Liu Haizhong patted Yan Bugui's chest with a smile and straightened his collar for him. "You're not me. I have a lot of room for development! Go back and think about who you should obey and who you should resist in this courtyard... You're so calculating, you should know what I mean! Haha!"

After saying that, Liu Haizhong looked at him deeply, then turned and walked into the backyard with his hands behind his back.

Yan Bugui squinted his eyes and stared at his back for a while, his brows deeply furrowed.

After all, he felt that he had thought too simply about inviting Li Xiangdong to dinner.

What I want is too simple!

From what Old Liu said, does Li Xiangdong have such great power?
