Invincibility begins with making choices

Chapter 124 Do I Have the Capital to Eat That Bowl of Rice?

"Okay, hug uncle!"

Li Xiang squatted down again, stretched out his hand to scoop it up, and hugged the little niece in his right hand.

In this way, the left and right hands are a pair of golden boy and jade girl.

Look to the left, then to the right.

Li Xiang smiled, very gentle, very happy!

"Two naughty little guys, uncle is tired after coming all the way back!"

At this time, the elder sister Li Qin also came over with a smile on her face.

Li Qin, aged 32, has good looks and figure, and is fairly well-dressed.

When I don't go to work, I stay at home full-time to take care of the children and do housework.

Her husband, Chen Ming, is a civil servant.

Work in the Yongxian county government office.

Inconspicuous, it belongs to the role of running errands.

To put it nicely, it is called seniority, but to put it badly, it means insufficient political resources.

In the office, he pretended to be his grandson, but if he went to Li Xiang's house, he would immediately put on the airs of an official.

If you want him to help with something, then don't even think about it.

Fortunately, there is a bottom line, which is respect for Li Xiang's parents.

There is a saying that what a person lacks is what he likes to show off most.

Li Xiang felt that these words could not be more appropriate when applied to his elder brother-in-law.

"Sister, it's okay, I'm not tired."

Li Xiang smiled, "Pick up your things."

As he said that, Li Xiang carried the two little ones and walked into the house. The yard at this time of the season was too sunny.

It took only a while, and the scalp began to feel hot.

Nothing will happen to me, but how can the two children bear it.

After entering the house and putting down the two children, Li Xiang walked to the backyard.

The backyard is shaded, and the space is not much less than the front yard, and there is not much sunlight.

A large area was specially covered with colored steel tiles, and the home's water reservoir was also built underneath.

The backyard was very lively at this time.

Mother, second sister, second brother-in-law, including grandma, either squatted or sat on a low bench, gathered together.

Li Xiang took a closer look,
Well, it's killing chickens and ducks.

"Grandma, mom, brother-in-law, second sister."

Li Xiang shouted happily.

The mother and second sister just looked back at Li Xiang, smiled, and continued the task of plucking hair.

But grandma and second brother-in-law stood up, chatted and laughed with Li Xiang and came to the living room.

Grandma is getting old and uncomfortable after sitting for a long time. While chatting with Li Xiang, she got up to have a rest.

The second brother-in-law, he is a man after all, and he doesn’t really like these picky things.

It was just taken under the pressure of the second sister.

Ha ha, it is half bronchitis.

Of course, this is also an expression of loving his wife.

As the old saying goes, being afraid of your parents is filial piety, and being afraid of your wife is love!
The second brother-in-law is Liu Shihui, who is from Jingxian County, the neighboring county.

The family is a small business.

Two stores were opened in the county town, one specializing in children's clothing and the other specializing in women's underwear.

Generally speaking, the economic conditions of the family are not bad.

At least,, it's not bad in a small county.

The second brother-in-law is the only child in the family, so the husband and wife did not go to work outside, and both helped manage the two shops at home.

Li Xiang took out a soft bag, gave one to his second brother-in-law, and bit one himself.

There was still one cigarette left from the few cigarettes Wang Shilong gave, and he intended to honor his father, so he didn't open it either.

Liu Shihui took the cigarette, slightly surprised in his heart, and turned to look at Li Xiang, "Okay, Xiaolong, he's already smoked softly. It seems that he's been doing well recently!"

Li Xiang just smiled, then took out the lighter and lit it.

The lighter is exactly the Dupont that Xia Jin gave, it is luxurious and exquisite.

With sharp eyes, Liu Shihui reached out to take it from Li Xiang's hand, and looked at it carefully.

They are all men, and they are all old smokers who can't live without cigarettes.

I also know a little about some brand-name lighters.

After a while, Liu Shihui shifted his gaze to Li Xiang again, his eyes were brilliant and somewhat uncertain, "Xiaolong, is this a Dupont limited edition?"

"Real or fake?"

"It should be true!"

Although no affirmative words were used, Li Xiang knew in his heart that it would definitely not be an imitation.

This little thing was given to him by Xia Jin.

With Xia Jin's status, would it be a counterfeit?
Then her face will not be lost outside Nantianmen?

"Xiangzi, you won't be winning the lottery, will you?"

Liu Shihui looked Li Xiang up and down, as if he didn't recognize him, he shook the lighter in his hand,

"Such a small thing is estimated to cost more than 50 soft sister coins."

After the words fell, Li Xiang hadn't answered yet, but grandma stood up from the sofa a little excitedly.

"Xiaohui, what costs 50?"

Grandma asked in surprise, her pupils widening.

Although the hearing is not very good, but from a close distance, I can still hear more or less clearly.

"Grandma, this is the... lighter."

Liu Shihui turned his head to look at grandma, and at the same time opened his palm, revealing what was in his hand.

Grandma's eyes were not getting better, so she moved closer, took a few glances, stretched out her hand, and quickly retracted it.

She was afraid that she would accidentally drop such a valuable thing.

Then he shook his head and sat back on the sofa, glanced at Li Xiang, but didn't say anything.

At her age, money has little concept to her.

Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren.

Her grandson was able to make a lot of money, so she was naturally happy for him.

Liu Shihui turned his head to look at Li Xiang again, pursed his lips, with a curious expression on his face.

Meaning, don't you talk about it?

Li Xiang rolled his eyes and smiled lightly,
"Winning a jackpot by buying a lottery ticket, I never dared to think about it."

Then he said,

"It was a gift from a friend."

"Tsk tsk, friends can give such precious things."

Liu Shihui was very interested and meaningful,

"Is it a man or a woman?"

Li Xiang touched his chin, and didn't want to hide it, "Female!"

After hearing Li Xiang's answer, Liu Shihui turned his head and glanced at grandma, seeing that she didn't seem to notice this side.

Then he pulled Li Xiang aside, put it in his ear, and said in a low voice: "Xiangzi, you are being bewitched by some rich woman, right?"

The tone seems a bit complicated.

Li Xiang turned his head and glanced at his second brother-in-law Liu Shihui, curling his lips, somewhat dumbfounded.

What are you thinking?

Do I need to rely on that to eat?

Besides, do I have the capital to eat that bowl of rice?

for my appearance,
Li Xiang still has self-knowledge,,,

Even if we want to be a pretty boy, we are not qualified.

"Second brother-in-law, you can't think of me!"

"You used to be an ordinary employee of the company, so don't blame me for thinking wrongly!"

Liu Shihui thought in his heart, and smiled embarrassingly, but asked: "Xiang Zi, is it possible that some beautiful woman is chasing you?"

"This, it can be considered."

Li Xiang nodded.
