After the discussion, the specific matters will be carried out by Tiger Master and Lao Hao, and Li Bowen only needs to wait for people to be sent over.

But layout also takes time.

Li Bowen couldn't wait here forever, so the two parties agreed to meet at Tiger Lord's place in half a month.

After staying in the county guesthouse for another night, Li Bowen returned to the village. He had not stayed at home properly in the past few days since he came back, but had been running around everywhere.

Now that everything is arranged, he can have a good rest at home and accompany Chen Qiao for two days. Therefore, Fox can take Chen Dong and others to contact some villages far away. Li Bowen will walk around the nearby villages during the day and collect things.

After breakfast in the morning, Li Bowen rode his tricycle out of his home and took a walk around the nearby village. Then he remembered the things he bought in the county town, so he simply went to Shenjia Village and gave them to Shen Zhaodi.

So I rode my bike over there.

It was almost noon when we arrived. A little boy of eight or nine was playing with sand at the door.

"Little baby, what are you doing?"

Xiao Bao looked up at Li Bowen and immediately recognized him. He threw down the sand, rubbed his hands on his clothes, and ran over: "Brother-in-law!"

"Well, that's good! Where's your sister?" She grabbed a handful of candies from her pocket, peeled one and put it into his mouth, and put the rest in her pocket.

"My eldest sister and the others have gone to work, and my third sister is cooking at home!"

"Oh, let's go home then!"

"Okay, I'll go open the door!" Xiaobao happily ran into the yard and opened the fence gate.

Li Bowen pushed the tricycle into the yard, found an empty space and parked it, then called out, "Third sister!"

Shen Ladi came out of the kitchen when she heard the voice. She was surprised at first, but then she smiled: "Brother-in-law, you are here! Xiaobao, go to the field and call our father and elder sister to come back!"

"Okay," Xiaobao responded and ran away quickly.

Then Shen Ladi said to Li Bowen: "Brother-in-law, please go inside and sit down first. My elder sister and the others will be back soon. I'm cooking right now!"

"That's perfect. I bought some meat and eggs. Ladi, come with me to the kitchen and make something delicious for Xiaobao at noon." Li Bowen called Shen Ladi over. In the truck bed were a basket of eggs, more than ten pounds of meat, a plastic bucket of peanut oil, and clothes, shoes, and other things bought for them!

Seeing this car full of stuff, Shen Ladi was very surprised: "Why are there so many?"

"These are all things we can use at home. By the way, do you have any rice or other things at home? If not, I'll get some next time!" Li Bowen asked while unloading things.

"There are still quite a lot left. Uncle Li brought it over during the Chinese New Year and we haven't eaten much yet!"

"That's fine."

After putting everything in place, Li Bowen sat down in the main room. Shen Ladi took the thermos and poured Li Bowen a glass of water before going to the kitchen to busy herself.

The three sisters of the Shen family all had good looks. Although they were not very pretty, they were well-proportioned. The only problem was that they were too thin. Long-term malnutrition had caused their complexions to be a little sallow and their hair to be dry.

Shen Ladi is obviously already fifteen or sixteen years old, but she looks obviously smaller. If she increases her nutrition now, she should be able to regain her size.

Not long after, Xiaobao ran back first: "Third sister, third sister, Dad and eldest sister said they will be back soon."

"Oh, okay, then you can play by yourself for a while!"

Xiaobao ran into the main room again and said something to Li Bowen, then sat on the stool on the other side and picked up the cup of water to drink.

"Xiaobao, have you gone to school?" Li Bowen asked.

"No!" Xiaobao shook his head.

"Then do you want to go?"

"Well, I want to go, but my family has no money!" Xiao Bao looked obviously depressed. Children of his age have already gone to school. Since his family has no money, he can only stay at home and play by himself every day. He can only play with others after school. He is envious of the fun things in school that others talk about, but he can only envy them.

"It's okay, I'll go find the teacher and let you go to school!"

"Really?" Xiaobao immediately opened his eyes wide and looked at Li Bowen.

"Of course it's true, so you should be prepared!" Li Bowen replied with a smile.

"Oh! I can go to school now!" Xiaobao jumped off the stool happily, hopping and running, and ran out quickly to tell his third sister the good news.

Soon, the voices of Shen Laonian, Shen Ladi and their daughter came from the gate. Li Bowen quickly stood up and greeted them: "Uncle Shen!"

"Bowen is here! Come in and sit down!" After putting the farm tools in the corner, Shen Laonian came over and invited Li Bowen to go back into the house.

Shen Zhaodi smiled at Li Bowen and said, "You go and rest for a while. I'll help Ladi cook!"

After lunch, Shen Laonian called the children to the east room and left the west room for Li Bowen and Shen Zhaodi to talk.

In the room, Shen Zhaodi sat on the kang near the entrance, somewhat embarrassedly, leaning against the wall, her fingers constantly pinching the corner of her clothes.

Li Bowen took the things he bought for Shen Zhaodi and said, "I went to the county town to do some work a few days ago. I don't know what you need, so I bought you and your brothers and sisters two sets of clothes, a few pairs of shoes, and some floral fabrics. See if you can wear them. If they don't fit, I'll change them!"

Shen Zhaodi took it and looked at it, her heart filled with joy. Li Bowen still thought of her when he went to the county town, which meant that she was right about him. However, she felt sorry for him spending money recklessly: "Why did you buy these? We have clothes to wear at home!"

"Hey! You think you have too many clothes? It would be nice to have a few more sets to change into! Try them on to see if they fit!" Li Bowen urged.

Changing clothes in front of a man, even her own man Shen Zhaodi felt embarrassed: "I'll try again later, if it doesn't fit, I can just change it!"

Li Bowen also felt that he had said something wrong, and quickly picked up the shoes next to him: "Then try on the shoes, this one can't be changed!"

Unable to persuade Li Bowen, Shen Zhaodi took off her cloth shoes, picked up the small leather shoes Li Bowen bought for her, put them on her feet, and stepped on the ground: "Well, they are very good, the size is just right, I have never worn leather shoes before!"

"As long as you like it, I've bought it for Lai Di and La Di as well. You can let them try it later. I don't know the size of their feet, so I bought them according to your size!"

Shen Zhaodi looked at Li Bowen in confusion: "How do you know what size I wear?"

"Hehehe, when we were chatting the other day, I compared my feet with yours and I got a pretty good idea!"

"You're quite resourceful!" Shen Zhaodi said with a smile.

"Of course! I bought you some good things!" Li Bowen took out a small bag from his arms and handed it over.

Shen Zhaodi took it and poured out the contents of the bag, which turned out to be a pair of silver bracelets and a Guanyin pendant. It was not that Li Bowen did not want to buy her good things, but he was mainly afraid that they were too expensive and she would not accept them. If he wanted to give her good things, he had to wait until the two of them got married.

Even so, Shen Zhaodi still complained: "Why did you buy these? I can't take them with me when I work. It's just a waste of money!"
