Dashan Orchard 1988

Chapter 78 The wounds deliberately concealed

The mountains and fields are vast, and the wind rustles the leaves. From time to time, there are sounds of various nocturnal animals, as well as the calls of owls and cuckoos.

Various sounds mixed together, causing the mountains and fields to fall into an inexplicable silence.

It was in this silence that Li Muyang left Xishan, crossed the Sanmu Bridge, climbed through the hundred acres of peach blossom forest in Taoshan, and finally returned home.

Tonight, there is something very important.

From a distance, I saw a dim but gentle light coming from the house. The light shone from the open door, as if it were a silver-white light path at the door.

As soon as Li Muyang walked to the door of his house, he saw a little kid crawling over the threshold crookedly and rolling to his feet like a little fur ball.

"woooooooo~"

It's his little happiness.

When I first picked this little guy up, he looked so languid that I was worried about whether I could feed him.

As a result, in the blink of an eye, it became lively and full of energy.

Although it has a slight problem with one foot, it does not affect its naivety at all. And precisely because the foot is not right, it runs crookedly, which makes it even more cute.

And it may be because it is too young and not wary of people, so it is very clingy.

I especially like Li Xiangqin and Li Muyang.

Every time Li Muyang came back from outside, it would roll to his feet, keep rubbing its butt against Li Muyang's shoes, and always try to climb on Li Muyang's shoes to play.

While crawling, he was whining and seemed very excited.

Li Xiangqin came out of it, holding a fire stick in his hand. He came out to chase the dog. When he saw Li Muyang coming back, he shouted with a smile: "Brother, you are back. I thought it was time for you to come back, so I’ll heat up some more rice for you.”

"There's a good understanding."

Li Muyang knelt down and teased Little Happiness.

As soon as the little guy met someone and teased him, he simply lay on his back on the ground, with his legs in the air, exposing his white belly to Li Muyang, and gently pretended to bite Li Muyang's finger with his small mouth, but he didn't use any force at all.

The belly of an animal is the most vulnerable part. If you are willing to show your belly to people, you must be very trusting of people.

In the evening, Li Xiangqin made potato knots.

Potatoes are potatoes.

Potato knots are made by cutting the potato into strips one centimeter wide and two to three millimeters thick, mixed with flour, and then steamed in a pot.

After it comes out, mix it with green chili seeds, oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar and eat it.

This kind of pimple tastes delicious and very filling, but it is easy to fart after eating.

If you have a weak stomach, you can fart all night long.

Li Xiangqin's service was very attentive. She mixed the food for her brother and served it to him, while chopping firewood at the edge of the kitchen.

Even though she is a girl, she is really strong.

The ax used to chop firewood must have weighed at least a dozen kilograms. It was swung smoothly and the sections of wood turned into fine wood very smoothly.

Li Muyang came to his mother's room with his rice bowl.

Mother was awake, and because she couldn't move, she could only look at the beams on the roof quietly. When she saw Li Muyang coming in, she tilted her head with difficulty.

"Five, you are back."

"Well, mother, you're back."

"Why do you come back so late these days?"

"Isn't this because I think that while this thing is around, I can make more money by digging more. If I do other things, it will not be easy to make this money."

"But it's too hard for you to wake up early and work late every day."

Of course Yuan Rufeng understands that this kind of opportunity to make money is rare, but it still makes her heartache to think that her son is so tired every day.

"Mom, my dear mother, you said there is no simple way to live in this world. If you don't want to get something, you have to pay something first. But there is no such thing as something for nothing."

"That's right. Mom just said that you are too miserable."

"Haha, it's okay. I don't think it's hard anyway. Working can be exhausting. As long as I feel happy, I'll be fine no matter what I do."

Yuan Rufeng could only smile.

Even if my son says this, it’s not good to keep dampening his enthusiasm.

Li Muyang threw the potato knots in the bowl into his mouth and said, "Mom, didn't I say last time that I was going to take you to the city to see a doctor? Tonight, Mu Feng, Mu Yun and I will be back. Then we and Big brother, second brother, let’s discuss it and see how we can arrange this matter.”

"Yeah, you're not saying I won't see you. Why are you wasting this money? It's not easy for everyone. Life is so tight. How can you spare money for my medical treatment? You can talk to everyone later, and don't talk about medical treatment anymore."

"Haha, mother, you can't make the decision on this matter. Just have a good rest and we brothers will discuss it. Let me tell you something. I asked Sister-in-law of the Xue family to help me ask about the blind date last night. I I’m going to marry you a virtuous daughter-in-law, don’t you want to sit down and host the wedding for us?”

"You said you are looking for a wife?"

"Well, I'm looking for a wife. Aren't you always worried about me wanting to be a bachelor? Now that I'm looking for a wife, aren't you happy?"

"I'm happy, how can I not be happy? Mom is holding on to her pride and not swallowing it in. She's just waiting to see my son get a wife."

Yuan Rufeng's voice was full of cheerful tone.

"As long as you are happy, then don't say anything and just follow our plan. If the treatment is fast, you might be able to stand up by the time I get married."

Li Muyang actually didn't know to what extent his mother's illness could be cured.

But he tried his best to speak and think about the good things.

Taking [-] steps back, looking at it is better than not looking at it.

Even if the mother cannot stand up and walk, if she can sit up, it is still worth doing.

Under the influence of Li Muyang's optimistic attitude, Yuan Rufeng also had some ideas about treating diseases. However, when she talked to Li Muyang, she began to worry that all the money would be spent on medical treatment. Even if she fell in love with a girl, what would she give as a bride price?
Li Muyang told her not to worry about it.

He said that since he dared to ask others to help him find a blind date, money matters were naturally not a problem and he could handle it.

Yuan Rufeng thought about it and realized that she couldn't help much now as she was lying on the kang. At least it shouldn't damage the child's confidence, so she didn't continue to say anything. She just kept telling him that making money is making money, but don't work too hard.

Don't tire your body out.

Li Muyang responded with a smile.

While chatting, Xiao Xingfu whined from outside, and then Li Xiangqin shouted: "Big brother, big sister-in-law, second brother, second sister-in-law, sixth brother, sixth sister-in-law, and Xiaofeng, you are all here."

Then he shouted inside: "Brother, everyone is here."

Li Muyang put his rice bowl on the windowsill, jumped off the kang, and came to the door.

With the light from the kerosene lamp, he saw a group of people coming outside the door.

Of course, there is no need to mention the eldest brother and sister-in-law, the second brother and the second sister-in-law.

Xiaofeng had just met him a few days ago and asked him to notify the others to come together.

Only Lao Liu Muyun was seen for the first time after his rebirth, and of course his wife Qian Xiaoyu.

Li Muyun was born tall and tall, nearly 1.8 meters tall. Because he was a cook and usually had good food, he was very strong and his arms were as thick as his wife's thighs.

When a person becomes fat, some flesh will naturally appear on his face.Many of the children in the Li family have inherited their father's eyes, which tend to appear triangular when they are angry.

When most people see this kind of triangular eyes and then see Li Muyun's tall and strong body, they become intimidated without saying anything.

Gradually, Li Muyun also discovered the advantages of his body, and began to become very irritable and unable to restrain himself. He got into fights with people several times and caused minor and minor incidents.

It would be okay if he met a virtuous wife with such a rough character, but his wife, Qian Xiaoyu, was not an economical person either.

Although she was born into a peasant family, she always yearned for a wealthy life because she had an aunt who worked in a provincial capital.

But your heart is as high as the sky, and your life is as thin as paper.

She chose to marry a person with no ambition like Li Muyun.

But her intestines were turned green.

In addition, Li Muyun also has a bad habit of gambling. Sometimes he finally has some money, but if he can't control his hands, it is easy to gamble and lose it.

Therefore, the conflict between the couple has always been intense.

Later, when the children grew up, Li Muyun turned back, and his life gradually became much better.

But it also left a regret.

When Li Muyun's child was playing with his friends, a finger was cut off by a guillotine. If he had to go to the hospital quickly, he might be able to reattach it.

But he happened to be at the gambling table at that time, and his wife could not find anyone anywhere. Finally, he finally sent the child to the hospital, but because of the delay, the fingers could no longer be connected, and the child lost a little finger forever.

It was because of this incident that the couple almost divorced. Qian Xiaoyu took the child to live with her mother's family for half a year. Finally, the brothers went to beg their grandfather to sue their grandmother, and then they took Qian Xiaoyu back.

Since then, Li Muyun has completely changed for the better.

He was already good at cooking, and his life soon got better.

"Fifth brother."

"Five brothers!"

Everyone else had just met Li Muyang and had nothing special to say. Only Li Muyun and his wife had not seen him for some days, so they called out alone.

Qian Xiaoyu was wearing a purple or brown dress, and it was not very clear under the light.

She has curly hair that is rare in this era. She imitates the hairstyle of Hong Kong and Taiwan stars, and there is a bow in her hair. She has a good appearance and temperament, so she looks quite good-looking.

Li Muyun wore a shirt on his upper body and exaggerated trousers on the lower body.

It looks a little bloated.

With his body shape, he was at the fattest time in his life. Standing in a crowd, one person could occupy the space of two people.

Qian Xiaoyu and Li Muyang didn't feel anything at all, they just shouted symbolically and carelessly.

Li Muyun also called Fifth Brother.

The relationship between the two of them was not very good at first, but as they grew up and matured, it gradually got better.

Later, during the blind date, Qian Xiaoyu originally wanted to meet Li Muyang, but ended up falling in love with Li Muyun, who was relatively thin at the time, tall and handsome, and Li Muyang didn't argue.

He directly gave the opportunity to get married to his younger brother Mu Yun.

Because of this incident, Mu Yun felt that he actually owed his brother a lot, so he was much nicer to him.

"Mu Yun, why are you so fat again? You need to be more moderate. Being too fat is bad for your health."

Li Muyang patted his brother's big belly and joked with a smile.

The moment he saw his brothers just now, he felt very happy. When he passed away in his previous life, his eldest brother and second brother were already dead, so none of the children of the old Li family lived long.

Just like his short-lived father.

What makes him even more powerless is that his brothers are not an accident, but purely due to illness.

If it is an accident, some measures can be taken to avoid and save it. But if it is a disease, who knows how it occurs.

For example, my eldest brother had a heart problem, and the final cause of death was myocardial infarction, and he suddenly died.

This is difficult to prevent on weekdays.

The second brother's life was caused by lung cancer. It is estimated that his lungs were severely damaged due to years of working in mud and water.

But plastering was his livelihood, and if he wasn't allowed to do it, what could he do?

With three children at home, a family of five depends on him alone.

I also have to bear some of my mother’s daily medical expenses and living expenses.

How to let go of the burden.

Now seeing everyone standing in front of him, how could Li Muyang not be happy.

The blood of this kind of brothers is thicker than water. Only after experiencing it once can you find how precious it is.

Li Muyun would definitely not be happy if his belly was patted by others, but naturally there would be no problem if his own brother patted him.He smiled naively and said, "How can you blame me? Who told me that the food I cook is so delicious?"

Li Muyang smiled.

Qian Xiaoyu complained angrily on the side: "You still said, eat, eat, eat, I will kill you sooner or later."

"Hey, what are you talking about? Don't talk nonsense in front of my brother."

Li Muyun's expression changed slightly.

Qian Xiaoyu looked at him contemptuously, but did not continue to say anything.

"Haha, it's okay. Let's go in and see Mom first. The room is small. Let's talk outside later. Qinqin, bring out all the chairs..."

When it came to Qinqin, Li Muyun was obviously more enthusiastic. He walked up to Li Xiangqin with a smile and said, "Qinqin, Qinqin, when you come back to your parents' house, why don't you visit Sixth Brother? Sixth Brother is so uncomfortable."

"Why do you feel uncomfortable? You look chubby, and you don't look like a miserable master. You go to see your mother first, and I will bring you a stool."

Li Xiangqin deliberately lowered his head to avoid Li Muyun's eyes.

The injury on her neck has healed a lot, but the scar on her face has not been removed. There is a dark mark as big as a copper coin.

Others may not notice it, but Li Muyun is her brother and knows her image well. The two of them have a good relationship, so it will definitely be easy to detect.

Things calmed down for the time being, and she didn't want to continue to intensify the conflict before Liu Xiaojun got here.

She has made up her mind now and will definitely not have sex with Liu Xiaojun.

But she wants children.

There is a son and a daughter in the family. Liu Xiaogang will definitely not give up his son Yangyang, and he likes her very much. Her mother-in-law also likes her grandson, so she will probably not suffer a loss even if she stays with the Liu family.

But my daughter is different.

The Liu family has a strong preference for sons over daughters. They didn't like their daughter in the first place. After he left, he didn't know how much suffering his daughter would have to endure.

Every time she thought about it, her heart felt like a knife.
