Only this green, not disappointing the spring

Chapter 67: The Pride of the Zhao Family

Li was so angry that she almost laughed. Her mother always said that her brain was not working well.

In her opinion, her man's brain is a block of wood!

"You sound nice, you can wait, but the villagers can't! We have to take baskets of fruit to the city, but other families in the village have to wait for their fruit. What do you think the villagers will think?"

Zhou Jun was a little confused. Wasn't their family doing good things? How could the villagers think badly of them? Could it be that they suspected that their family was eating alone?

Yes, I took it for granted.

However, he could admit his mistake to his wife, but he simply could not bring himself to apologize to his child.

Isn't it natural for me to take care of my daughter? Even if what I said was wrong, it was out of good intentions.

Li was too lazy to pay attention to Zhou Jun anymore. She was actually feeling a little depressed.

All the strengths that I liked in this man back then, now seem to be weaknesses!

The couple each had their own concerns and neither slept well the whole night.

Early the next morning, Li Daniu called General Hei to go out for a walk. He had been sleeping particularly well recently.

Smoke was rising from the chimneys of every household in the village, and Zhao was busy in the kitchen.

It was still Zhou Xiaoxi who helped to light the fire.

Because she was too busy last night and forgot to give the new embroidery work to Li, Zhou Xiaoxi took it out early this morning.

As expected, when Li saw the embroidery, she lost all interest in anything else and only wanted to embroider the handkerchief.

The fabric brought this time was actually silk, and Li was afraid that her hands would be too rough and would snag the threads.

Soak your hands in warm water for a long time, until your hands are covered with bubbles, then take them out and wipe them clean with a cotton pad.

Then she went straight into her room to embroider a handkerchief. If Zhao hadn't called her, she wouldn't have wanted to eat breakfast.

At the dinner table, Zhou Jun kept looking at Zhou Xiaoxi and seemed to be hesitant to speak several times.

Zhou Xiaoxi pretended not to see anything the whole time. He ate calmly while discussing with Zhao how to tell the head of the village about selling pears.

This time, Zhao only called Li Dali, and Zhou Jun, who had originally planned to go with them, had to stay at home in depression.

Li had no intention of taking care of her man at all. A woman with a career would not bother to worry about such trivial matters!

Li Shoucai felt a little scared when he saw Zhao and his group.

Last time, he took on too much responsibility in a fit of anger, and many villagers were dissatisfied with him afterwards.

I don’t know what you are here for this time. Hasn’t the household registration been completed?

Could it be that he is here to take the land? You wish, there is absolutely no room for negotiation on this matter!

I kept yelling in my heart, but I had to maintain harmony on the surface.

"Sister Li, what's the matter? Why bother you to come here in person?" (Try not to come to me in the future...)

Zhao automatically ignored Li Shoucai's slightly dissatisfied tone and said with a little pride:

"Head, we are here for a great cause!"

"Oh? This is new. Our Dali Village is a remote and poor place. What good things can come from it?"

Zhao looked at Zhou Xiaoxi.

"Little Xi, have a good talk with your village head grandfather."

Li Shoucai was a little confused. What on earth could a little girl say?

Zhou Xiaoxi first put on her signature smile, then called out sweetly:

"Hello, Grandpa, the village head! I would like to tell you about this good news on behalf of our whole family. Please bear with me if there is anything unclear."

After listening to Zhou Xiaoxi's story, Li Shoucai was completely stunned.

What the little girl said was not only clear but also concise.

The rich man in the city wants to buy pears from their Dali Village? Is this a pie in the sky? The sun doesn't even rise from the west!

Looking at Li Shoucai who was stunned and speechless, Zhao spoke up to interrupt his daydreaming.

"Brother Li, our little girl Xiaoxi said it very clearly. Is there something wrong? Or do you simply not believe it?"

Li Shoucai certainly didn't believe it. This family didn't have any capable people. Li Dali was just a bit strong, but his brain wasn't even close to being smart. How could this family have the ability to connect with the nobles in the city?

But I can't say this directly. What if it's true? Wouldn't I become the sinner of the whole village?

"Well, Sister Li, you're overthinking it. I was just a little scared. So where did we find the person who made the connection?"

Zhao's expression became even more proud, and she cleared her throat unconsciously.

"Maybe you don't know, but our Xiaonan is an apprentice of Doctor Zhang of Huichuntang in the city. He is currently living and eating at the Zhang family. This connection was made by the daughter of the Zhang family!"

Li Shoucai was even more confused. How could a girl be an apprentice in a clinic? This was even more unbelievable than selling pears!

I had no choice but to continue digging deeper.

"Sister Li, please don't think I'm nagging. After all, this is a major event for the whole village, and we can't be careless."

"How did your Xiaonan become an apprentice in the clinic? Don't think I'm being harsh, I'm really worried too. Have you gone to see Xiaonan? Don't let her be fooled by some charlatan!"

Zhao was not angry either. Although Li Shoucai was not very knowledgeable, he was not a bad person.

At least for now, it seems that he still wants to make a career in Dali Village, but unfortunately he has no ability.

"Xiao Nan's father's illness was cured by Doctor Zhang in the city. Now he has no difficulty walking. It is obvious that he is a man of superb medical skills. It was because of this relationship that Doctor Zhang discovered Xiao Nan's talent in medicine, and he agreed to keep her by his side to teach her skills."

"So, don't worry, this is very reliable! If our Xiaonan can achieve success in his studies in the future, the people of Dali Village will benefit from it. But I have to say this in advance, we will never pay attention to anyone who just wants to take advantage of us!"

Li Shoucai finally believed this story 50%, but as for the remaining half, he still had to ask more.

"I don't know how to sell these pears. There are so many pear trees in our village, and it's hard to tell who owns many of them. If we don't handle it right, there will be trouble!"

Finally, I have figured out the cause and effect, and finally arrived at the crux of the matter.

Zhou Xiaoxi took over the conversation and continued:

"Grandpa, our family has little influence and cannot handle such a big thing. We have to rely on you to coordinate the overall situation!"

The little girl was really sweet, and Li Shoucai was very flattered by her flattery.

"Little girl, you are right. We must formulate a rule. If there are unreasonable families, they will have to sell their pears themselves!"

"However, how can you guarantee that the nobleman will give the money readily? If you deliver it to the doorstep but are kicked out, it will be a disaster. Not only me, but the whole village will be resentful of your family. You really can't stay in our Dali Village!"

Li Dali knew the answer to this question, so he quickly raised his hand and said:

"Chief, you can rest assured, because the money has already been given! Hahahaha..."
