Chapter 291: The Brazen Li Jun
Li Jun said while rubbing his hands and looking at the yard, but there was no one he wanted to see in the yard at this time.
"Don't, I'm only a few years older than you. Just call me brother. Uncle can't afford it. Don't mess up your seniority." Mushui hurriedly corrected.
"Well"
"Dad, what's wrong?" Mu Xiu walked out of the house with a sleepy eyes. Seeing the man who was picky when he was standing at the door, Mu Xiu had a bad impression of this person, and she asked vigilantly.
"It's okay, Li Jun will borrow a few kilograms of noodles." Mu Shui turned his head and replied.
"Dad, we have all bought white flour from our family. How could we lend it to others? Uncle Li, I'm sorry, you go and borrow it somewhere else." Mu Xiu refused without hesitation.
"Hey, you little girl, your father didn't even say anything. What are you talking about? It's big or small." Li Jun immediately became unhappy.
"Li Jun, my family Xiu is right. My family has no extra food. You can go to another place to find a way." Mu Shui was very unhappy when he heard Li Jun say Mu Xiu.
"Mu Dali, you can do it well. Good people will do it to the end. Send the Buddha to the west, otherwise you will give it to the little worthless sweet potatoes. You want everyone in the village to thank you, there is no way." Li Jun was rejected by Mushui, and he said sarcastically.
"How did you say!" Mushui took a few steps back angrily by Li Jun's words.
"Your life is so good. You build a house and buy cows. You can eat meat for three meals a day. As I said, I want us to praise you. At least you have to give us another 50 kilograms of white flour and 50 kilograms of rice to each of us!" Li Jun said shamelessly.
"Get out, you're not good enough. I'm really abusive to take away the dozens of kilograms of sweet potatoes and give them back to us. I'm so shameless." Mu Xiu heard Li Jun's words and his heart was so angry that he burst into tears.
"Why do you talk to your elders? You need to deal with it, right?" Li Jun had always heard that Mu Shui was soft-hearted and was the most easy to bully. He originally wanted to come over and take advantage, but he was rejected by this little girl from the Mu family.
"I am not as shameless as you," Mu Xiu said mercilessly.
"I'm really heartless. You can wait for the villagers to scold me!" Seeing that Li Jun couldn't get anything this time, he threw down his harsh words, turned around and left.
"Who are these people? I'm so angry." Mu Xiu was so disgusted by Li Jun early in the morning, and she was as nauseous as if she had eaten a fly.
"What's wrong?" Mu Xiaocao also woke up at this time. As soon as she walked out of the room, she saw Mu Xiu's angry look on her face.
After Mu Xiu told him what happened just now, Mu Xiaocao couldn't help but snorted and said, "What's the matter? Come again next time, I won't scold him to death."
"And Xiu, look, when you said you would send the sweet potatoes out, I thought it was a bit inappropriate. Look, this would have caused a ungrateful wolf. If I had known this, the sweet potatoes would not be given away if they were thrown away." Mu Xiaocao educated Mu Xiu again.
"Okay, who knew there was such a person? But for dozens of households, it would be worth it if I could help a family in real need." Mu Xiu argued.
"Then wait and see. I don't believe that Li Jun is the only one who thinks so. It's so naive!"
However, in the following days, the village was calm and Li Jun did not come to the house again. Everyone gradually forgot about this matter.
After dinner and after packing the dishes, the family gathered at the table. Li Pandi and Chen Xuhui were studying and arithmetic. Mu Xiu sat aside to guide him. Mu Xiaocao and Zhou Shuilian were sewing everyone's clothes, and Mu Shui weaved a basket with bamboo strips.
Now there is not much work at home, that is, watering the ground, removing weeding, feeding chickens, ducks, geese and pigs. Chen Xuhui and Mushui rushed to the market every time they went to the market.
"Dad, mom, the Chinese New Year is coming in two months, I want to go to the provincial capital." Mu Xiu suddenly spoke.
"Why are you going to the provincial capital?" Zhou Shuilian paused for a moment while sewing her clothes.
At the same time, the pen in Chen Xuhui's hand also stopped. His eyes fell on the book. It seemed that he was reading a book, but in fact he had his ears erected.
"Last time when I left Grandpa Lu's house, I said I would visit him again before the New Year. Moreover, I have recently figured out several recipes and happened to teach them, and also bring the food here to sell some money." Mu Xiu was talking nonsense about the reasons.
"Is Lu Yuan there too?" Zhou Shuilian asked the question Chen Xuhui wanted to ask.
"Mom, I'm going to Grandpa Lu's house. Lu Yuan and Grandpa Lu's house are not in the same city." Mu Xiu replied.
Zhou Shuilian then breathed a sigh of relief. She was afraid that her daughter would be deceived when she saw Lu Yuan.
"I'll go with you." Chen Xuhui said.
"It's not convenient. I can just live in Grandpa Lu's house when I go there. It's too much money for you to stay in a hotel outside." Mu Xiu refused without thinking. Just kidding, she went to make money, and it would be a big trouble to bring a little tail.
Chen Xuhui's eyes instantly dimmed.
"Then I'll go with you." Mu Xiaocao said.
"Sister, I live in someone else's house. It's really inconvenient. Before I left, I called Grandpa Lu in the city and asked them to answer me. It's not the first time I've been there, so don't worry."
"Okay, then let your father take you to the car to the city. How many days are you going?" Zhou Shuilian agreed. She also knew that Mu Xiu had a big idea and had been acting steadily. No one could change what she decided.
Chen Xuhui moved his mouth and finally lowered his head. He always felt inferior in front of Mu Xiu and did not dare to refute her words, for fear that she would hate him.
"At most a week, I'll go and clean up first." Mu Xiu stood up.
"I'll go and help." Chen Xuhui followed closely behind.
Mu Xiu asked Chen Xuhui to pack the vermicelli, fungus and mushrooms and put them in a woven bag. She went into the house and cleaned up a few pieces of clothes.
"Mu Xiu, I have saved some money, and it will definitely be enough to stay in a hotel in the provincial capital." Chen Xuhui said with courage.
"Brother Chen, we have worked hard to make money. If you stay in the provincial capital for a few days, the hotel will be gone. Are you willing to bear it? Anyway, I don't want to bear it. The money you saved has to go to school and college. When next year, we will pay off our foreign debts. I will take everyone to the provincial capital together. How about it?" Mu Xiu misunderstood that Chen Xuhui wanted to go to the provincial capital.
Chen Xuhui was speechless for a moment. Indeed, he had to go to college to realize his dream and be qualified to tell Mu Xiu that he liked her.
After packing up the things, everyone washed and went to bed.
Early the next morning, Mushui got up, put on a ox cart, dragged it on a woven bag, and took Muxiu to the county town.
