Dressed As a Farm Boy, He Cheated on His Way Out of the Desert.

Chapter 596: Death is like a lamp going out

Chapter 596 Death is like a lamp going out

House and Jiayin were both confused, so Mr. Hou said: "Go home first, and talk slowly when you get home."

Soon, the carriage arrived in front of his house. Li Laosi heard the commotion and came over to greet the people. He happened to be captured and asked to carry more than a hundred books into the main room.

Mrs. Li was also surprised and asked: "Where did you buy so many books and how much money did you spend?"

Li Laoer poured himself a cup of tea and drank it, and then said: "Mother, Mr. Guo passed away. Before, he found someone to copy the books he collected around him into two copies, one for Mr. Wen and one for Mr. Wen. Our family…”

 “Died? So suddenly!”

Mrs. Li was shocked. After all, Wen Hao had just accepted Mr. Wen as his teacher a few days ago, and Mr. Guo was also present. Why did she turn around and hear the news of his death...

Li Laoer replied: "Mr. Guo was asking for death before, but he was hanging on for his life because he couldn't let Wen Hao go. Now maybe he feels that Wen Hao has someone to rely on and a teacher will take care of him in the future. He feels relieved and lets go." ”

 Everyone was sighing. Occasionally, they would not be happy when they thought of this old gentleman. After all, the incident of wrongly accusing the Li family of killing people was really ugly.

 But when a person dies like a lamp being extinguished, all grudges will disappear.

What's more, Mr. Guo probably felt guilty in his heart, otherwise he wouldn't have remembered to give so many books to the Li family before he died.

Old Mrs. Li told her children and grandchildren, "Mr. Guo's gift of books may also mean asking our family to take more care of Wen Hao, at least not to blame Wen Hao for the previous grudges.

“Actually, he thinks too much. From now on, Wen Hao will be Jiaren’s junior brother. Even if we don’t have these books, if anything happens to him, our family will take care of it.”

"I know, don't worry, mother." Li Laoer took the lead and responded.

Old Mrs. Li relied on others to recommend her, thinking that if she passed away, the children would be the ones she would be unable to let go of the most.

She looked a little sad. Jiayin quickly ran over, hugged her grandma and said coquettishly, "Grandma, is Wen Hao's grandfather dead? He is so pitiful! He gave me a little wooden horse before, can I also give him a box of snacks? Ah, after he ate some snacks, he didn’t miss grandpa anymore!”

Everyone couldn't help but laugh when they heard this. Mrs. Li even tapped her granddaughter on the forehead, and said with a mixture of laughter and tears: "Do you think everyone is as greedy as you? He is so sad, how can he just eat a snack?" OK.

"But what comes and goes is right. People have given you things, so now you might as well give some back."

Jiayin smiled and licked the spot where the little chipped tooth was. There were white dots there, indicating that a new tooth was about to grow, and it was very itchy.

She thought for a while and said, "Then my mother and I will bake honey cake tomorrow morning. That one is the sweetest."

"Okay," Old Mrs. Li agreed in one breath, "Bake some more, these snacks are soft and soft, I will give some to your village chief grandpa and grandpa Zhao. Your second sister-in-law also likes to eat them, and I will give some to Mrs. Wen..."

After Tao Hongying heard this, she simply said: "Mom, we have to go through some troubles. Why don't we bake more and ask the fourth child to go to Luo'an and send some to the third sister-in-law and the children, and buy some milk back."

“Fu Niuer’s birthday is coming soon. The base of the cake is almost ready, but the buttercream is not yet formed. Let me think about it again!”

"Okay, you just have to look at the arrangements." Old Mrs. Li was led astray by her granddaughter and daughter-in-law, and her thoughts completely went astray, and she forgot how sad she was just now.

She thought of something else and said, "By the way, tomorrow, I will go and tidy up Jinrou's yard and burn the kang. She will definitely come to live here when she comes back, otherwise Mr. Wen will go to court and it will be too deserted for her to be left alone at home."

 “You don’t need the old lady to do anything, we’ll clean it up.” Aunt He interrupted and quickly took over the work.

After a few more idle words, everyone dispersed to rest...

Perhaps he got the news that a family of wild boars died in Broken Gold Beach. Not to mention big beasts like black bears and wild wolves, even rabbits and the like did not dare to pass by the cornfield of the new village.

But even so, the village chief organized a strong patrol team, rotating in two shifts a night, with 20 people in each shift.

He was running non-stop, circling the cornfield. When the birds flew by, they wanted to pluck out a few feathers as a warning.

During the day, there was more work in the village, and most of the newly opened road in Xiaowangzhuang had been built. Of course, basically all the work is done by the villagers of Dawangzhuang, Xiaowangzhuang and Dahuaishu Village.

But the new village has to send food there to provide two meals a day.

There are also trivial coordination matters, which also require the Xincun side to worry about.

 Fortunately, the construction of the second village is nearing completion, and the beams will be almost ready in five or six days.

 But Uncle Zhao and the other old men felt it was not good, so they started gossiping with the village chief.

Uncle Zhao beat the injured leg a few times and said, "Brother, my leg hurt so much last night. I'm afraid there will be heavy rain within three to five days."

“Yes,” Uncle Wei nodded, “The scar on my back is also itchy and uncomfortable. It must be raining!”

The village chief knocked on his broken arm, somewhat disbelieving, "Why can't I feel anything in my arm?"

Uncle Zhao said: "No matter whether it is true or not, you must be on guard. The wood in the second village is still being thrown outside. How about we transfer all the manpower over and rush to build the row houses quickly so that the small houses can be built quickly?" Brothers, move in early!

“Although they are sensible and often help with the work in each house and do not pick up the food, it will always be a little inconvenient over time. Let them live in a new home as soon as possible. They will be practical and we will not worry.”

 The village chief nodded, this makes sense.

Relatives come from afar!

 With a big family living together, it’s inevitable to have bickering and blushing.

 What's more, living with outsiders will definitely be inconvenient.

“Then let everyone in the village gather together and let’s rush to build terraced houses.”

The village chief made the decision, and Uncle Zhao and others dispersed to inform everyone.

There is great strength in numbers. The work that originally took five or six days was completed in two days with the concerted efforts of all the villagers.

Logically speaking, getting on the beam is a big deal, and you need to find someone to figure it out.

But the wounded soldiers all came back from the battlefield, and there were no taboos.

The village chief directly asked Li Laoer to help look up the almanac. Hearing that this day was also suitable for groundbreaking, he started to build beams.

The masons invited back this time were also the ones who built the new village last time. They worked quickly and well.

  There are several people whose names are still engraved on the stone tablets at the entrance of the hot spring valley.

 So, seeing the sky darkening, they increased their speed.

The last tiles were safe, and the heavy rain also fell. It was coming fiercely, and it seemed that it would not be completely clear for two or three days.

Everyone was happy when something important happened on their mind.

 In the new village, two pigs were specially killed.

It happens to be a rainy day and you can’t work, so let’s have some fun!

People in the new village have become accustomed to this kind of big pot meal. They eat well and drink happily every now and then, and everyone is very close to each other.

 Li Zheng from Dawangzhuang, Xiaowangzhuang and Dahuaishu were all invited, and they happily followed suit.

 There were only wounded soldiers, which was very novel.

This also gave them a better understanding of the prosperity of the new village and made them full of hope for their future life...
