Chapter 682: Teacher Li
Management is a discipline. Wen Saner learned a lot from Li Xuewu.
Taught hand-in-hand by Li Xuewu, having experienced several thrilling twists and turns, his heart was now incomparably strong, and he didn't fear going against Zhang Wanhe at all.
Don't look at Da Qiangzi and Zhang Wanhe still being one family now; slowly they wouldn't be.
No one is such that interests cannot gather them, and no one is such that interests cannot disperse them.
Wen San understood this principle from Li Xuewu. Zhang Wanhe didn't need to learn; he realized it himself.
On the mountain, down to the mountain, having started such a big "career" in Jicheng, with so many people in his hands, how could he not know.
So he was holding the phone now, really having thousands of words to say to Li Xuewu but couldn't say them.
"Proprietor, it's me, Old Zhang."
"Shopkeeper, I said why didn't Third Uncle speak."
Li Xuewu paused, then said with a smile: "Busy tonight? Have you eaten?"
"Yes, just finished eating. Old San went out to send off a guest, it was business brought by Qiangzi."
Zhang Wanhe heard Li Xuewu's laughter, so he followed suit and replied with a smile.
"Old San's wife made fish tonight, ate quite well."
"Must eat well, even more must eat until full."
Li Xuewu said with concern: "You are all running on the water, doing hard labor, in the wind and rain, can't be hungry, and must pay more attention to your health."
"Yes, thank you Proprietor for thinking of us."
Zhang Wanhe's eyes were vacant while holding the phone, his heart thinking of Li Xuewu, and his brain was also considering Li Xuewu's words like an electric shock.
"How can I not think of you? You are all running hard, especially on the sea, the waves are big and the wind is urgent, our ships are too small."
Li Xuewu was also holding the phone, his eyelids drooping, caring for the other party with earnest words.
Li Shu had just been coaxed well by her mother, and seeing her father's expression, she was about to shed tears again in fear.
Gu Ning glanced at Li Xuewu, knowing that this person was starting to act bad again, his face didn't match his heart.
She reached out and opened the little monster, pointing at the little person inside to Li Shu, not wanting her to look at the inner room.
"Hmm!"
Li Shu looked at the person in the little box; it was much kinder than her father.
Li Xuewu's kindness was "misunderstood" by his daughter, and Zhang Wanhe on the other end of the phone was also listening with narrowed eyes.
"I can't bear to urge you, but twenty-seven ships are the foundation for us to gain a foothold in Steel City."
"Inland rivers have restrictions, and they rest in winter. Only the vast sea is our journey."
"Our cooperation business with the Jinmen Port Authority is about to be carried out. Undertaking port transportation is two different things from fishing in inland rivers. Transportation isn't even the same type."
"The training that should be there must be grasped, the discipline that should be there must be managed, and the duties and responsibilities that should be there must be shouldered."
Li Xuewu's lecture was set after set. Listening to the bright side was one thing, listening to the dark side was another.
No matter how you listen, you have to listen, because both the bright and dark meanings must be handled.
"Of course, our inland river transportation business cannot be thrown away, and must continue to be carried out. After all, our base is still in the inland rivers."
"Related business is also carried out relying on inland river ports. You must grasp this work well."
After Li Xuewu finished his instructions, he added, "But you must also pay attention to your health and not overwork yourself; you have to strive to work another thirty years for our cause."
"Hahaha~"
Zhang Wanhe couldn't help but laugh out loud after hearing Li Xuewu's words. Thirty years, he could consider it a hurdle if he could pass this year.
Li Xuewu didn't trust him, and three places had restrained him. So nervous, maybe there would be some big moves later.
Thirty years, I'm afraid that after this year, he would have to go ashore. The day Da Qiangzi rose, the day the fleet completed training, was the day he became the real "first-in-command."
With his banner, but without his troops.
Just looking at the two cubs who came from Jingcheng, and the two who followed Wen Saner, which one was kind?
He didn't know what medicine these four people took, but they learned energetically and worked desperately. If there wasn't a huge grievance in their hearts, there was an ambition bigger than the sea.
He felt he couldn't compare to Li Xuewu, not just age, body, environment, and conditions, etc., all-around factors, he couldn't play him.
Just a reserve force, and he couldn't do it.
He was born in bitter days, but his son wasn't, at least not when he was a bit older.
Although there weren't so many fresh things in the mountains as in the city, there was no problem with eating until full.
He wasn't home all year round, and the children were managed by his wife. What could a woman understand about the principles of managing children?
So now that eldest one had become a difficult problem, right?
Even if he made a huge name in Jicheng, wasn't it all for nothing in the end?
"Can't work anymore. Didn't feel it before, but now the humidity on the water is high, so I feel my legs and feet aren't agile."
Zhang Wanhe said with a bitter smile to Li Xuewu: "Those few times going to the sea really tossed me enough. Old San mentioned it to me, so I came down. I won't go on the ship if I can."
"Still have to grasp management. Your body and age are here. 'An old man doesn't use his muscles and bones as ability' after all."
Li Xuewu exhorted: "Cultivate the captains and related backbone forces. If you can speak and do things in the command room, there's no need to personally go on the ship and toss."
"Ai, got it."
Zhang Wanhe saw Wen Saner send the guest away and return, responded with a smile, and at the same time said: "News came from the old family, let the Proprietor spend money. Old San is back, I'll give the phone to him."
Li Xuewu waited for Wen Saner to answer the phone before saying: "Third Aunt-in-law made fish?"
"Yes, several people in charge of the grain station."
Wen Saner explained simply, then looked at the office while holding the phone, saw no one was there, and then said: "Thinking about preparing for the autumn grain. I see this year's harvest is good, another bumper harvest."
"Hmm, worry more about business matters, just pay attention to safety."
Li Xuewu reminded, then asked: "How is the fleet's business sorted out?"
"Already sorted out."
Wen Saner reported softly: "Personnel are all scattered and reorganized, fixed positions, master and apprentice one-to-one, the plan was drawn by me before boarding the ship. I don't believe this will have problems."
"Logistics support uses our own people, oil control is very strict, sometimes letting bright and dark follow the ship."
"When receiving the ship, the crew gets off the ship, the captain doesn't, managing with several procedures."
Li Xuewu listened to Wen Saner report a lot, nodded and asked: "Any other difficulties?"
"Yes."
Wen Saner dared to open his mouth; this was serious work, couldn't play fake.
"Still have to ask you for people. Manpower is really tight now, I have no one to use here, and I'm busy to the point of my feet hitting the back of my head."
"I know, people will be sent to you in about a month."
Li Xuewu also gave Wen Saner a specific time, and also told him that he was allowed to find people locally.
This kind of person couldn't be used much, but there was no problem using them to mix sand and do hard labor.
Recruiting people from Jingcheng could be cultivated as reserve management forces. They had no roots and could only listen to the unit's arrangement.
And local people had local sentiments, were easy to group together, and were not easy to manage.
"Is there any problem with the docking with the Steel Mill? The border cars are coming back, don't let things smash in your hands."
"Rest assured, it's steady. The Steel Mill's cold storage can be used by us. Just Steel City can't eat it all, and it can go to Fengcheng. The market there is very big."
Wen Saner said with a smile: "Actually, speaking of which, Steel City's market isn't bad either. There are many workers here, and those who earn wages dare to eat."
"Hmm, make more friends, do more things."
Li Xuewu nodded in agreement with what Wen Saner did, and also gave appropriate exhortations.
He wasn't in Steel City, so there was no way to remotely command so many people to do work over the phone.
Li Xuewu wasn't Old Chiang, so he wouldn't play that set of micromanagement. Since he put Wen Saner in that position, he wasn't afraid of Wen Saner having crooked thoughts.
One was that it wasn't worth it. Several businesses in Steel City were cooperative, either with the Steel Mill or with the investigation department. Everywhere there were people who could contact Li Xuewu. If he did anything, Li Xuewu would definitely know.
Last time Li Xuewu's phone call suddenly came, it almost scared him half to death.
He knew Ji Weidong must have eyes here. Not to mention Zhang Wanhe couldn't run away, even he himself was a puppet, and the strings were in Li Xuewu's hands.
What was he running for, playing what crooked things? Including the career in Jingcheng and the career in Jicheng, there were his shares in them.
Li Xuewu withdrew a large amount of funds from the recycling station. He was clear about this matter, and also knew what Li Xuewu used it for.
He didn't care about so much money, could he still covet these small amounts of money?
In other words, these were all his... theirs.
One day the environment really became better, just like Li Xuewu said, the wind blew past, and he could enjoy this money.
Even if he couldn't enjoy it, he could still give it to his children.
What is enjoyment? Now he is enjoying it, and he is very satisfied.
Before, he had no father or mother, guarding a small broken house, not knowing cold or heat.
Look at now, big wharf, piles of ships, groups of people, all under his management.
Wen Saner is a smart person, knowing that Li Xuewu taking them to play this was all for these few brothers.
If not, he could have played by himself. After all, his status was there. Whoever he looked for to play, who wouldn't be following him.
The essence is, there are many capable people, and using them is all looking at the relationship from childhood.
So what Li Xuewu says to him now, and what he says to Li Xuewu, are all without reservation.
Taking advantage of Li Xuewu having time, Wen Saner reported the work in Steel City to Li Xuewu in detail.
Li Xuewu heard to the end, and also had an understanding of the situation in Steel City, finally asking: "Does Third Aunt-in-law have it?"
"She... this..."
Just now what Li Xuewu asked, his answers were all prepared, and he said them as soon as he opened his mouth.
Only here did he stutter.
"Seems like she has it, but she isn't sure, and I'm not sure either."
Wen Saner's words were uncertain. Li Xuewu said with a smile: "Didn't go to the hospital to check?"
"Just haven't had time."
Wen Saner said with a chuckle, then asked: "Is everything good at home?"
"Everything is good."
Li Xuewu looked outside, said: "Old Biaozi went to live in the mansion at this time, otherwise I'd call him over to say a few words to you."
"No need, I don't miss him."
Wen Saner joked on the phone: "Finally can't hear his voice, let me have a few happy days."
"Hehe, I guess you won't be happy for many days."
Li Xuewu said jokingly: "Your nephew might be accurate this time. I guess you have to come back to preside over the overall situation."
"What? Accurate?"
Wen Saner said in surprise: "Isn't it that he took a fancy to the girl from the family that sells junk? Is it that one?"
"That can't be~"
After finishing, he himself was confused, muttering: "That family is a proper good family, how could they take a fancy to him?"
"You've mentioned the first dozen."
Li Xuewu said with a smile: "Now there are two, one is from the Central Academy of Drama, one is from the Central University of Finance and Economics, all university students, appearance and family background are very proper. Your nephew can't pick them all, don't know which one to choose."
"Listen to him blow cowhide~"
Hearing Li Xuewu say this, Wen Saner immediately felt that Li Xuewu was fooling him, or was fooled by Old Biaozi.
"Him? Still university student? Two?"
Continuously questioning, Wen Saner said amusedly: "I'm afraid he took the dream as real and told you."
"Hey, you don't believe it."
Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows and said: "Said he wanted to give you a surprise, let you upgrade to be a Third Grand-uncle."
"Then I only have surprise but no joy."
Wen Saner said with a smile: "If there really is a beautiful woman willing to give to him, and still says she is a university student, and still wants to give birth to a child for him, you say if this person isn't blind, then she can only be thinking of Biaozi."
After finishing, he said amusedly: "Not robbing money, then it's robbing people, sold as pork by the jin."
"Hahaha~"
The two joked for a while before hanging up the phone.
Stood up and pulled the white sand curtain, the smile on his face was still there, and said to Gu Ning who was looking over: "Wen Saner's wife seems to have it."
"You still care about this?"
Gu Ning glanced at Li Xuewu, then continued to pat Li Shu to sleep.
Li Shu didn't want to sleep at all at this moment. Father's phone call was very noisy, and she was staring with big eyes.
Li Xuewu picked up the pajamas Gu Ning found for him, explained: "He has no father or mother. We didn't play together when we were young, but I also know his bitterness."
Because it was cool at night, Li Xuewu didn't close the middle door, so he took his clothes and went to the bathroom, talking to Gu Ning while walking.
"Lost his father and mother at ten-something, grew up relying on hundred-family rice, not much stronger than Erhai."
Gu Ning didn't know much about the situation of those people in the inverted room. Hearing Li Xuewu say this, she listened carefully.
"Ten-something, how to live?"
"Just live like that~"
Li Xuewu sat in the bathtub and said while washing: "At first, his two sisters' families took care of him a lot. His second sister is Old Biaozi's mother."
"Later, always eating at the two sisters' families, he felt he had no face, so he helped in the ghost market, earning a meal fee."
"Oh, ghost market is underground market."
Li Xuewu was afraid Gu Ning didn't know, so he explained.
Gu Ning didn't respond, just listened. She knew little about these things. In the environment she lived in, she couldn't hear them.
"At first, just like I told you, I took Biaozi and them to catch bugs to sell. Later, I did a few trades. When I was older, I went outside Dongcheng to dig coal."
Li Xuewu washed quickly, only washed his body clean, wiped with a bath towel, changed clothes, and walked in.
"Dig coal?"
Gu Ning saw Li Shu didn't sleep, so she gave up, lay on the kang, looked up at Li Xuewu, and asked: "Go to coal mine to dig coal?"
"Where is there coal mine in Dongcheng? Dig coal, dig from the car."
Li Xuewu walked to the side of the kang and kissed his daughter, teasing Li Shu so much that she climbed up directly and didn't sleep at all.
Li Xuewu saw Gu Ning's complaining eyes, so he had to pick up his daughter and walk around the room.
"At that time, the big coal trucks walked from the current Second Ring Road. Because of the bumps, coal slag, coal blocks, etc., would fall off, and we would pick them up to sell."
"Later, too many people picked them up, and it wasn't profitable, so we climbed up from the back of the car and threw them down with iron shovels."
Gu Ning frowned while listening to Li Xuewu's words, said: "How dangerous~"
"At that time~"
Li Xuewu said with a smile: "We were all half-grown boys. The family's quota wasn't enough to eat. The old lady wanted to give the food to us little ones. How could I bear this? I could only take them out to find food."
Gu Ning listened to Li Xuewu talk about the bitterness at that time, but now looking at Li Xuewu's face, it was all relaxed.
Li Xuewu was relaxed because his wife and children were on a warm kang, and he had earned it all. The bitterness of those years was just for remembering.
"Our family wasn't enough to eat. You didn't see Erhai."
Li Xuewu gestured with one hand and said: "He was short, and thin, standing there shaking."
"Their family was all dead, only he was left. When I met him, he was picking horse manure. Seeing him so hungry, he even wanted to eat horse manure."
Li Xuewu held his daughter, gently swinging and coaxing, talking to Gu Ning.
"If I hadn't taken him, I'm afraid he would have been thrown into some trench and buried."
"You guys did this, didn't the driver care?"
Gu Ning was actually very curious about Li Xuewu's past. As long as Li Xuewu was willing to tell, she was willing to listen.
"Care, how could he not care? If he met an animal, he would dare to chase us with a rocker."
Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows and said: "But we were all smart. Erhai couldn't throw, so he would watch at the tail of the car. I, Dazhuang, and Old Biaozi threw down, and Guodong followed and ran below, telling us where to get off the car to meet."
"We also didn't throw too much, couldn't go too far. Those were all to be sprinkled, why not sprinkle in one place?"
Li Xuewu said with a smile: "Later, a driver was kind. Seeing us get on the car, he stopped the car directly, let us load two sacks, and told us, if you want it later, buy him a box of cigarettes."
"Now we knew, some things don't need to be grabbed hard, don't need to be beaten to get."
While talking, he explained to Gu Ning: "At that time, people like us all went to the big road to pick coal. Every half-grown boy grabbed with us. Later, with Erhai's joining, we knew where the coal thrown down was more, so we used force to occupy a piece of land."
"Others saw us occupying like this, they also occupied. The whole road was like dividing territory. The more forward, the more, the more bumpy, the more. Later, Old Biaozi was anxious and wanted to dig the roadbed."
"Hehe~"
Gu Ning listened to Li Xuewu's funny words and followed with a light laugh, but after laughing, feeling the bitterness of Li Xuewu at that time, she was also truly heartbroken.
Li Xuewu coaxed his daughter and talked about idle things, but didn't have so many feelings.
"Originally everyone was well-distributed. Those who could fight occupied the front section, those who couldn't fight occupied the back section."
"When it reached us, first climbed the car to dig, later directly traded with cigarettes. The coal dropped on the back road was less and less, we sold more and more, and then started fighting again."
Li Xuewu recalled and also smiled bitterly, said: "At that time, it seemed like fighting every day, fighting every day. Didn't dare to leave the iron chain on the waist even when going to the toilet. Dazhuang even carried a fork. If couldn't fight, would bleed the other party. He was ruthless back then."
Speaking of Dazhuang, Li Xuewu shook his head somewhat sadly.
Actually, Dazhuang's tragedy, Li Xuewu could foresee from that time. He was too ruthless, recklessly ruthless, without any scruples.
When Li Xuewu was there, he could still manage him, not let him move that. Li Xuewu left, and he didn't stand firm in the end.
To say Dazhuang was ruthless, it wasn't for himself. He had no father, and his mother earned money to support two children.
That time was different from now. A thirty-yuan salary could support a family, but it wasn't enough before.
It wasn't that the salary wasn't enough, but the grain wasn't enough. How much money you earned had nothing to do with how much grain you could buy.
Just issued so much, if not, then starve.
The reason Dazhuang was called Dazhuang was because he was strong and ate a lot. Their family had one adult, two children's rations, but it was two adults, one child's appetite. How could it be enough to eat?
It was just being starved, being starved anxiously. Whoever dared to grab his coal, he dared to want whoever's life.
It was precisely because of the ruthlessness of Li Xuewu and them at that time that they stood firm on this road.
"Is it Xiaoyan's brother?"
Gu Ning probably knew the relationship of these people. Dazhuang was gone, she rarely heard Li Xuewu talk about it.
Li Xuewu nodded, said: "At that time Xiaoyan was still small, playing behind our butts, annoying, didn't take her."
"In the business of relying on coal outside Dongzhimen, we really filled our stomachs. Old Biaozi also started not growing height at that time, started horizontal development."
"Sometimes he also brought his uncle to find us to play, but I saw Wen Saner was sharp-mouthed and monkey-cheeked, annoyed him, so didn't take him."
Li Xuewu saw his daughter yawning, so he held her horizontally and slowly swung.
"Said he was his uncle, but actually not two years older. The two got along like brothers. I'm talking about the pair of brothers opposite."
"Hehe~"
Gu Ning also heard the meaning in Li Xuewu's words, asked: "Always fighting?"
Now the quarreling sound of Liu Guangtian and his younger brother Liu Guangfu came from opposite. Gu Ning could hear it every time she came.
"Wen Saner couldn't beat Old Biaozi, hid from him. But when we earned money to buy food, he also came to join in the fun."
Li Xuewu looked at his daughter about to fall asleep, so he walked to the side of the kang, saying: "Wen Saner, that person, you look at him not so good, actually he is very face-conscious. Every time he comes to eat, he absolutely doesn't lose reason."
"Either help do work, or organize to sell coal. The period before I went to be a soldier was all organized by him to sell. We just pulled from the car, clear division of labor."
Li Xuewu listened to the movement opposite while talking. The quarreling seemed quite fierce, money words, maybe mentioned something else.
He didn't care. Even if it caused a life, the blood wouldn't splash here.
"After I came back, Dazhuang was gone, they didn't keep that place, so they mixed with the black market."
"Isn't it, seeing them not mixing well, I wanted to pull them, slowly had today."
Li Xuewu looked down at his daughter's sleeping little face, said: "First Wen Saner found a wife, got married, then it was Guodong and Xiaoyan together."
"Now it's me, had a wife and child, soon it's Old Biaozi, only Erhai is left."
Mentioning them one by one, Li Xuewu sighed lightly, said: "Said they are childhood friends, said they are sworn brothers, actually when first met, also called like that, but where is the brain and feelings of now."
"At that time didn't know how to earn money, just fought hard, even smelly dog shit was treated as treasure, brother feelings didn't take seriously."
"Later came back, Dazhuang was gone, felt they grew up, I also grew up, everyone had their own definition for the future, for life, for this world."
Li Xuewu sat on the side of the kang, looking at the moonlight spilling in outside the window, reflected on the white sand curtain, muttering: "Guodong's grandmother is gone, Wen Saner went to Steel City, Biaozi and I now have less time to talk."
"Guodong cares about the family, leaves after eating, meets and just chats idly, Erhai just recognizes hard work, doesn't say much to me."
Looking at Li Xuewu's expression, Gu Ning somewhat understood today's Li Xuewu, and also understood why calling Dong Wenxue was one expression, and calling Wen Saner was another.
She could see that when talking to Wen Saner, he wanted to chat more with Wen Saner. The two talked and laughed, missed each other, thought of each other, remembered each other.
This wasn't the kind of feeling that they wouldn't see each other again, but a kind of cherish and nostalgia for the bitterness, tiredness, and everything they suffered together back then.
No matter how close and firm the relationship between Dong Wenxue and Li Xuewu was, it didn't have the sincerity of eating together, living together, and going through life and death together back then.
Just like the brother of Diliya she saw, Pazile who worked in the Security Brigade, standing beside Li Xuewu was like a different person. As long as Li Xuewu gave a look, he would know what Li Xuewu wanted to do.
The tacit understanding between the two was mutual trust, and also highly understanding.
Gu Ning didn't have this feeling. The good sister she thought she had back then was the person who hurt her the most.
"Asleep?"
"Hmm."
Li Xuewu looked down, his daughter actually fell asleep listening to his chatter, sleeping very sweetly.
"Hehe, this little demon, annoying when making trouble in the day, now sleeping looks really rare."
"Put it here."
Gu Ning glanced at Li Xuewu, gestured to the small quilt laid out, and said softly: "All spoiled by you. Just now I was about to coax her to sleep, now she's not afraid of me saying anymore."
"Sigh~ little daughter, and big one, can't spoil bad."
Li Xuewu looked at his daughter with joy, arguing: "If you want to manage, manage her when I'm not home, don't let me see, otherwise I'll feel sorry."
"So I'm the bad mother, you're the good father."
Gu Ning covered Li Shu's belly with a small quilt, and at the same time scolded Li Xuewu.
Li Xuewu blinked his eyes, said with a smile: "People all say, mother's strictness is good, father's kindness is good, good for the child."
"Who said?"
Gu Ning looked at Li Xuewu and widened her eyes, said: "I'm a doctor, how come I don't know?"
"This isn't a doctor's business scope, this is a teacher's work."
Li Xuewu got on the kang, said with a smile: "Just listen to the teacher, it's definitely not wrong."
Gu Ning chased Li Xuewu and asked: "Then you tell me, who is this teacher, and in which book it said."
"Not in a book."
Li Xuewu beckoned to Gu Ning, said: "You come, I'll tell you."
Gu Ning looked at Li Xuewu suspiciously, asked: "Why do I have to go over for you to say, what are you going to do?"
"You just come."
Li Xuewu blinked his eyes, waited for Gu Ning to tentatively come over, and grabbed her.
"Ya~ um~"
Gu Ning was startled by Li Xuewu, just wanted to shout, but covered her mouth herself. Li Shu just fell asleep.
Li Xuewu grabbed this psychology of hers, held her in his arms and said with a smile: "That teacher is me, Teacher Li, call!"
"What is this?"
"What thing what!"
Qin Huairu pushed Li Xuewu, scolded: "You ask everything, just like you know everything~"
"Don't know so have to ask, if I knew, would I still need to ask you?"
Li Xuewu was pushed by Qin Huairu and walked two steps to the side, his body still leaning, his eyes also looking, not knowing what magic Qin Huairu was doing early in the morning.
After eating and coming back in the morning, Li Xuewu read a book in the backyard for a while. When he came out, passing through the middle courtyard, he saw Qin Huairu "doing magic" here.
An old stove in the courtyard, an iron pot supported on it, blue boiling water in the iron pot, the boiling water "gudu gudu" bubbling, and other things inside.
Seeing Qin Huairu standing on the side, wearing an apron, stirring inside with a wooden stick, adding a little something from time to time.
If looking with special element marking, there was a broom by the wall, thick fog rising from the boiling water...
This isn't the image of a witch in Western legends~
The things boiled in this big pot wouldn't be... magic materials!
Li Xuewu was also idle, looking over here when having nothing to do, feeling novel.
It would be even more novel if he saw Qin Huairu riding a broom and flying.
Qin Huairu couldn't stand Li Xuewu's curious and mischievous appearance, it was very hooking when making trouble.
Otherwise, why say men aren't bad, women don't love.
"Go~ why are you so annoying!"
"Hehe~"
Qin Jingru stood on the side and didn't speak, just laughed secretly.
Li Xuewu glanced at her and asked Banggeng who ran out of the house: "Homework finished?"
"Homework?"
Banggeng asked suspiciously: "What homework? Don't even have to go to class, where does homework come from!"
"Huo! You are really reasonable!"
Li Xuewu gave him a thumbs up with a smile, said: "Looks like you support not going to class the most."
"Not really..."
Banggeng secretly glanced at his mother, knowing that he couldn't tell the truth at this moment.
"Wu Shu, haven't you seen dyeing clothes?"
He was able to change the subject, pointed at the big pot his mother was fiddling with and said: "This is dyeing clothes! You don't even know this?"
Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows, looked at Qin Huairu, and looked at the pot again.
Seeing Qin Huairu pursing her lips and smiling, he asked: "People dyeing clothes don't add materials inside constantly like you, you look like steel smelting."
"Go to yours~ you are the one smelting steel!"
Qin Huairu scolded, then gestured to the things she added inside, and explained to Li Xuewu: "It's salt, haven't seen it?"
"Haven't seen it used like this."
Li Xuewu curled his lips and asked: "How come you thought of dyeing clothes?"
"My mom said she wanted a flower skirt!"
"I want it too!"
"I... I want it too!"
Having many children is noisy. After Banggeng finished, Xiaodang and Huaihua ran out of the house and started chattering.
Li Xuewu saw Jia Zhangshi also come out, so he smiled.
Jia Zhangshi nodded politely and sat on the small stool at the door.
"It's the old skirt that faded last year. I said tie-dyeing it can still be worn."
Qin Huairu fiddled with the clothes in the pot and explained to Li Xuewu: "Not broken, not bad, just faded. Throwing it away or changing it is a pity."
"How to wear isn't wearing~"
At this time, Jia Zhangshi sat on the side and interrupted: "This indigo powder isn't cheap, and there's salt..."
"Buying cloth to make a new skirt isn't cheap either~"
Mother-in-law saying this, Qin Huairu didn't want to listen. She had been nagging all morning, just spending a little money.
This money, must be spent on children, must be spent on eating. If spent on clothes, that's being vain.
Li Xuewu didn't pay attention to the quarrel between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, looked at the pot, and asked: "How many clothes can this thing dye?"
"Two pieces are not bad~"
Jia Zhangshi seemed to have caught reason again, followed: "So much money thrown inside, just exchanged for two pieces of dyeing, hum hum, don't know how beautiful it can be."
Qin Huairu rolled her eyes, too lazy to pay attention to her, turned to look at Li Xuewu and asked: "What, you want to dye?"
"Forget it~"
Li Xuewu gestured to the clothes on his body and said: "Either black or white, how to dye?"
"Dye it red~"
Qin Huairu said with a smile: "Wearing a big red robe, stepping on auspicious cloud boots, wearing a brocade official hat..."
"That wouldn't become a monster~"
Li Xuewu replied with a smile, gestured to the dye in the pot and said: "Be careful, don't have poison or something, this steam is also poisonous."
"Where is there poison, talking nonsense."
Li Xuewu just finished speaking, Yushui came out of the house, squinted and explained: "It's a kind of indigo pigment, processed from colored plant elements, where does poison come from?"
"Yo! Didn't go out to play!"
Li Xuewu saw Yushui walk out, greeted with a smile, and didn't care what this pigment was made of.
Yushui curled her lips, walked over to look at the skirt in the pot, and asked Qin Huairu: "Is the time enough?"
"Not yet, still need a few minutes."
Qin Huairu looked at the time in the house and replied, at the same time gave Li Xuewu a wink, gesturing to the pot and Yushui.
Li Xuewu only then knew that Yushui didn't pay attention to him because this pigment was introduced by Yushui.
"Okay, you guys play."
Li Xuewu smiled at Qin Huairu, gestured, and turned to walk out.
Banggeng saw Li Xuewu going out, chased and asked: "Wu Shu, where are you going to play?"
"Hehehe~"
Hearing him ask where he was going to play, Li Xuewu reached out and pulled his big head, said: "Wrestling, go or not?"
"Not going!"
Banggeng's footsteps following Li Xuewu stopped immediately. He was thrown miserably last time, still go?
Li Xuewu smiled and went out of the third gate, going to the front courtyard.
He Yu Shui glanced at the third gate direction, asked Qin Huairu: "How come he cares about this thing?"
"Who said it isn't."
Qin Huairu picked up the skirt in the pot with a wooden stick to look, said in her mouth: "Teasing when having nothing to do, today he doesn't look busy."
"Must be, going to wrestle~"
Yushui curled her lips, feeling Li Xuewu knew how to enjoy life too much.
Qin Huairu saw her son walking back disappointed, smiled at Yushui: "You look at him, just teasing Banggeng, there is no definite word in his mouth."
Talking to Yushui, Qin Huairu was also observing Yushui.
They talked in the courtyard, Yushui coming out was normal, what wasn't very normal was Yushui's excessive concern for Li Xuewu.
Didn't see Yushui fighting with anyone, speaking somewhat straightforwardly, but didn't do this with Li Xuewu.
If it wasn't that she really had a conflict with Li Xuewu, then it was another situation.
"I say so too, just moves his mouth."
Yushui evaluated Li Xuewu, then gestured to the stick in Qin Huairu's hand: "Hurry up, stir, it will clump in a while."
"Oh oh~"
Qin Huairu was looking at Yushui, didn't pay attention, now hurriedly continued stirring.
Yushui also saw Qin Huairu looking at her, only then reminded, her heart was also somewhat flustered, as if her mind was seen, just like the skirt in the pot...
Seeing Li Xuewu talking here, coming out to answer was intentional, not replying when Li Xuewu greeted was intentional, now seeing Qin Huairu suspicious and changing the subject was also intentional...
Yushui's heart was a bit messy, didn't know why she came out, why she wanted to come out when seeing him standing here.
Clearly knew his badness, unclear with the women in the courtyard, also knew his playfulness, didn't have a serious time with anyone.
Even more knew he was married, and the object of marriage was very good, very enviable.
Then why did she come out? Just want to see Li Xuewu? Want to talk to Li Xuewu?
Yushui couldn't sort out her mind, didn't know what attitude she should have toward Li Xuewu.
Since the matter of Jing Yongjie, she didn't have the heart to find in this aspect, and there were people introducing her in half a year, but none were suitable.
How could it be suitable? Although she was in the textile factory, although she was a cadre status, she belonged to the "widow of the gate," belonging to a kind of husband-killing in the old lecture.
No matter what old bad customs are broken now, the traditional concepts deeply rooted in people's hearts haven't changed.
About to talk about marriage, this kind of thing happened, whoever is introduced will mutter in their heart.
Good ones naturally won't meet as soon as they hear, only bad ones, those who can't find an object, won't care about these.
How proud a person He Yu Shui is, wouldn't wrong herself even when with Jing Yongjie, let alone now.
Now the words discussing her are naturally few, but as long as the matter of blind date is mentioned, someone will constantly sprinkle salt on her wounds.
This is the biggest hurt of that emotion that ended without illness to her, and also the reason why Seeing Sha Zhu didn't urge his sister to find an object to marry until now.
Finding now, can only find lower, find someone with lower conditions than her.
But can she look down on those with lower conditions than her sister? ===== CHAPTER 683 =====
