Wu Juying and Han Chunmei made a big pot of chopped green onion egg noodles for Jin Peng, Wang Jianqiang and others. The three brothers ate happily in the room.

Jin Peng took a sip of the noodle soup and said to Li Ye: "Hao Jian called me the day before yesterday and said that he would not go back to Qingshui County for the New Year this year. It is inconvenient for him to contact you, so I will tell you."

"What do you tell me? I don't care where he celebrates the New Year?" Li Ye said indifferently: "Besides, his daughter's body is indeed more comfortable in Yangcheng than in Dongshan, and it's right to settle in the south."

Jin Peng shook his head and said, "No, Hao Jian went back to his hometown in northern Hubei for the New Year this year. I called me to show off in advance."

"Show off? What to show off?"

"Showing the car," Wang Jianqiang put the empty bowl on the table and said with some complaints: "Hao Jian was lucky. He finally bought a car before the New Year. As a result, he didn't send it to Brother Ono, but he drove it back to his hometown to show off."

According to Wang Jianqiang's idea, when Pengcheng No. 7 bought a car, he had to sit for Li Ye, the "No. 1" and the rest had to line up backwards.

Li Ye smiled and said, "If you don't return home without wealth, it's like walking in a night clothes. You guys don't know what Hao Jian made at that time. As friends, we have to help him and fulfill him, right?"

"If you don't return home without wealth, it's like walking in a night clothes?" Jin Peng and Wang Jianqiang thought for a while and asked Li Ye: "What does this mean specifically?"

"This is a sentence in "Records of the Grand Historian: The Original Annals of Xiang Yu". The original saying is 'Wealth and honor will not return to our hometown, like embroidered clothes walking at night, who knows it',

It means that a poor and humble little person has made his fortune through his own hard work. If he doesn't go back to his hometown to show off, it is like walking in gorgeous clothes at night. No one will know your scenery?"

Li Ye transformed into a history scholar and explained the whole story to the two, but after listening to it, the reactions of the two were completely different.

Jin Peng nodded repeatedly, feeling that Li Ye was right.

However, Wang Jianqiang lowered his head and remained silent for a long time.

In fact, the difference between the two people's thoughts can be reflected in the two people's dress today.

Jin Peng is wearing a British style suit and windbreaker, tailor-made for Pengcheng Factory No. 7. It is as clever as possible to fit as you are.

Over the past year, Jin Peng has returned to Qingshui County to visit relatives several times. The name of "Boss Jin" has become more and more popular. His wife, who has not yet passed the door, has also changed from being a foolish daughter who was "blind" to a unique "Boss lady".

Wang Jianqiang is another negative extreme. He is so low-key that he should be. He hasn't been home for a year, and his family doesn't care how he is doing. He is dead.

These two ways of dealing with things actually have their own reasons. After decades, the second method was even recognized by many people.

But now it is 1982, and there are more styles like Hao Jian and Jin Peng.

Wang Jianqiang did not look up and asked Li Ye in a low voice: "Brother, do you think I should also change into a bright dress?"

"It depends on you," Li Ye said with a smile: "Qianzi, the reason why we have to work hard is to live freely and freely, to avoid caring about other people's eyes, and do whatever we want,

Now if others laugh at you because you dress like this, will you care?"

"I can't do it!" Wang Jianqiang smiled silly and said, "Others laugh at me, but I just think that he is blinded by his eyes and cannot see me clearly."

""

“Hahahahahaha~”

"Qianzi, you can also quarrel with words. I'm so joking."

Li Ye and Jin Peng both laughed, especially Jin Peng, which made Wang Jianqiang feel a little embarrassed.

However, Li Yema immediately encouraged: "Qianzi, don't care. From now on, you can read more books and study more. It is guaranteed that it is not worse than anyone else, at least much better than your Brother Peng."

"I don't care about my brother," Wang Jianqiang said seriously: "I can tell the difference between a real smile and a fake smile. In fact, Brother Peng has been reading and studying, and he is not bad either."

“Ha~”

Li Ye smiled and said nothing.

Jin Peng is indeed learning to charge, but that was forced to learn by Li Ye and Wang Jianqiang. Wang Jianqiang, who seemed stupid, is a down-to-earth "stupid bird flies first", and is harder than when he was in school.

In the past, this child with a big appetite was even disliked by people to eat, so how could he have the intention to study?

But now after solving material difficulties, Wang Jianqiang has burst out with a persistent and tenacious nature.

In Li Ye's view, Wang Jianqiang is the mute enhanced version of "Guo Jing", and he has the spirit of being tempted to be rude.

After dinner, Jin Peng and Wang Jianqiang stayed at Li Ye's house for a while, and then went home to find their own mother.

Both of them have been working outside for a year, and Jin Peng occasionally comes back to be intimate with his wife, but Wang Jianqiang has never come back once.

It’s just that Jin Peng was so anxious that he was impatient, but Wang Jianqiang dragged his steps and looked timid.

Everyone can only walk their own way, and outsiders can’t help.

......

After Wang Jianqiang, Jin Peng and others left, before noon, someone came to Li Ye's house again.

Han Xia and her mother and father took two sisters to the door of Li’s house with their two sisters, and moved the goods down for many years.

Especially the dozens of old-fashioned carp and grass carp, Li Ye was shocked.

The water quality and environment are really good these days! If you drain a pond, you can get so many wild carp and grass carp that are half a meter long.

It will take decades to come, unless it is the southern river area, such a large number of wild fish are easily found. You can’t even think about it in a place like Dongshan, and you can only eat a lot of feed farming goods.

However, Han Xia and his family came here not just to deliver New Year's goods to the Li family, but to worship Lao Huai.

Since Li Ye "been Huai Master"'s dream and passed the first place in the province in one fell swoop, Lao Huai Master's incense has become many times more prosperous.

Now everyone secretly agrees that the Li family’s grandmother Wu Juying has the strongest welfare, otherwise why would she just choose Li Ye?

Han Xia’s two sisters are in middle school, so it’s a little bit to be able to get some.

In the early morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, my sister-in-law Li Mingxiang took her cousin Zhao Meiwen, Hu Man, and my brother and my mother to meet up at Li Ye's house.

The reluctant Li Ye was also pulled over by Wu Juying, but he only stayed at the old locust tree for a few minutes before returning.

Because Li Ye had just bent his knees this time, before he could kneel down and kowtow, thunder came faintly from the dark sky.

I don’t know if it was a stern shouting—“You monster, you are out again and you are annoying?”

Still whispering—————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

Anyway, Li Ye, who had had two similar situations in a row, decided not to worship Lao Huai again.

......

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, after breakfast, neighbors and friends began to walk around to greet each other.

Except for Wen Leyu, everyone in the small group of eight people went to Li Ye’s house. Even Chen Jinhua, who was still in the hospital, asked Jiang Xiaoyan to come here to pay New Year’s greetings.

Li Zhongfa hurriedly greeted Wu Juying and asked the old woman to let Chen Jinhua go to the inner room. The stove for heating was burning whirring, for fear that Chen Jinhua would get contaminated with cold air and would worsen the condition.

This action made Chen Jinhua restless and hurriedly said, "You old aunt, don't have to be so troublesome. I'm not that delicate, I'm not that delicate. I'm actually already good. If my daughter hadn't stopped me, I would have been discharged from the hospital."

"Just talk nonsense," Wu Juying pretended to be angry and said, "You don't care about yourself, you will suffer when you are old,

I heard from my grandson that your illness was simply delayed. If you don’t pay attention, you will not be able to do any heavy work in the future and you will be unable to breathe as soon as you do it."

“Hi, it’s not that serious, it’s not that serious.”

Chen Jinhua smiled embarrassedly, but her heart was very warm and comfortable.

She was very nervous when she came. I heard that Li Zhongfa was a director, and his identity was higher than that of a village cadre. He was even more separated from an ordinary person like her by 100,800 miles away. I don’t know how "magnificent" he is!

But now looking at Li Zhongfa who was busy tidying up the stove and Wu Juying who served tea and water, Chen Jinhua couldn't help but sigh in her heart: "This is the public servant of the people!"

At this time, Hu Man, Han Xia, Li Dayong and others' mothers also came in to join in the fun, and soon became a group of people, which also made Chen Jinhua relax.

As he was talking, someone said to the window: "Our children! They all have the benefits of Li Ye. Look at them now, are they still the same as last year?"

"That must be different. When I was repeating the class last year, my son didn't say a word all day long, and I felt sorry for him when he looked at it, but now he actually told jokes. I was so funny yesterday."

"That's right, it's only half a year, and my son has changed a lot."

Several women came to the window and looked at the college students laughing in the yard, and the "satisfaction" in their eyes was about to overflow.

When Jiang Xiaoyan, Yan Jinbu and others repeated the class, they were all wrapped up in the depression and depression, which made people feel "Why is this child so depressed?"

Now Jiang Xiaoyan and others are confident, just like the sun shining brightly after breaking through the dark clouds. Not only does it change itself, but it also quietly warms others.

Wu Juying also looked at Li Ye through the window. Seeing that his grandson vaguely occupied everyone's center, she agreed with her husband Li Zhongfa's wisdom at the time.

There are three stakes for one fence, and three heroes help. Although these children are still young saplings, they may not be able to help anyone after many years!

However, just as Wu Juying looked at Li Ye proudly, several "relatives" came into the yard.

Wang Jianqiang's old mother Fan Chunhua brought Wang Jianqiang and his second brother Wang Yonggan to greet the New Year.

Wang Jianqiang's mother was not tall but had a loud voice. As soon as she entered the door, she said, "Uncle, aunt, we are here to wish you a happy new year."

Li Ye, who was joking with his classmates, turned his head and saw Wang Jianqiang's bitter smile.

"Hey, Ono, are you calling all your classmates? That's right, Aunt Liu will have to talk to you later."

"Aunt Six, we are going to pay New Year's greetings to the school teachers! Just tell my grandparents if you have something to do."

"No, no, I may have to tell you about this matter, don't leave first! Otherwise, Aunt Liu won't let you."

""

When Fan Chunhua led her two sons into the main hall, Li Ye quickly said to several classmates: "I remember everything! If Qiangzi's mother asks you about Qiangzi later, you will say you don't know. If you ask three questions, do you understand?"

Hu Man and others didn't understand why, but they all nodded secretly.

Li Dayong knew the inside story, and couldn't help but pull Li Ye aside and whispered: "Is Qiangzi exposed the situation?"

Li Ye shook his head slowly and said, "I don't know either, but it's really too difficult for him to expect Qiangzi to lie to him."
