Chapter 231
There are still two days left for Chinese New Year, everyone is preparing new year's goods, and at the same time they are discussing about Li Tiezhu's matter. They have not found anyone for half a month, and there is no news at all. With such weather, this person must have had an accident.

They all sighed for the old Li's family, and felt that Zhang's family was really a troublesome place. As long as they had anything to do with his family, nothing good would happen. As a result, if something happened to Li's family, people in the village would stay away from Zhang Erchun's family even more.

Although Erchun didn't care about the opinions of the villagers, but when he saw that Li Tiezhu hadn't heard from him for a long time, he also became worried. He didn't say anything, but he looked a lot thinner than before. Old man Zhang is kind-hearted, and he has been worried about Li Tiezhu Li Yanhong, who has always been talkative, was silent a lot about the matter, but it was because Erchun was going to the city to inquire about it as time went by.

The family also talked less. There were fewer people in the first place, and the house seemed more and more quiet. There was no lively movement in the small village during the Chinese New Year. Until the afternoon of the 29th, a person from another village came to the village and went directly to Li’s house. , only to startle the waves in the quiet village.

"You mean that Tie Zhu went to the city?" Wang Xiang, who was lying on the kang and couldn't move due to illness, sat up when she heard the news from the visitor, because she didn't eat anything these days. It was too fierce and panted heavily, "When did Tie Zhu ask you to deliver the letter? Where did you meet him? Where did he go in the city?"

Li De also listened with his ears sideways. This time, he didn't blame his wife for being too reckless. There was no news of his son for half a month, and the sky at home seemed to have stepped down. Li De worked hard all his life, didn't he hope that his family would prosper? When I got up, I didn't think that my son was gone, so what's the point of living like this, if it wasn't for a daughter-in-law supporting me, the family would have broken up.

"For half a month, I met him outside and saw that he was terribly cold, so I took him to a nearby wood picking place to rest. After he warmed up there and ate porridge, I heard that picking trees If the person wanted to leave, he said he would go with him, and asked me to deliver a message to him. The family has been busy for a while, so I took the time to come here.” The person who brought the letter lived at the foot of Linshan, and usually I seldom interact with people, so I found this place after inquiring for several days.

Wang Xiang was stunned, "He just followed someone?"

"That's right, the wood picker was short of people, so he followed." The letter had already been brought, and the middle-aged man also stood up, "It's getting late, and the letter has also been brought, so I won't stay any longer."

"Please take a walk." Li De was also weak, and he had aged a lot in the past half a month. "Please bring the letter here. If you don't mind, just eat at home before leaving."

"No, I'll hurry home at dawn." The man was not polite, got up and said, don't go out.

Wang Xiang was in a hurry, and urged Zhang Ping who was standing beside him, "Hurry up and send him off, and then ask him where the woodcutters are, otherwise, where can we find Tie Zhu?"

Zhang Ping responded in a panic, and chased him out. There was no outsider in the house. Li Decai told his wife, "Now that I know that Tie Zhu is fine, now that he has gone out to work, Zhang Ping is still at home. Whoever the wife is will be fine." You won't be happy, from today onwards, treat Zhang Ping better and don't keep throwing face at him."

"If it were Zhang Erchun, would Tie Zhu leave?" Wang Xiang turned his anger on his daughter-in-law. "They are all in the same family. I feel upset when I look at her now. Now that Tie Zhu has gone outside, let her go back to her mother's house." Stay here and save yourself from being an eyesore in front of me."

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Li De yelled, "You drive your daughter-in-law back, what do the villagers think? Now the whole village is on our side, and you drive your daughter-in-law back, isn't it just to spread hatred? ? Besides, how could anyone drive the daughter-in-law back to her mother’s house? Isn’t Xiaoping supporting the family when things go wrong these days? What’s wrong with helping you cook and clear the table?”

There's nothing wrong with free labor.

Wang Xiang thought for a while before she stopped. Li De knew that she had listened to her, so she didn't ask any more questions. Knowing that his son was fine, he finally felt at ease, but he didn't know when the child would be able to go home. If there is no one, there is no way at all.

After Zhang Ping caught up with the people who came to bring the letter outside, she asked eagerly, "Uncle, do you know where those lumberjacks came from? Where are they going to work?" Will you come back?"

The man was very friendly, and he replied as he walked out, "I'm going to work in the factory in the city. I will naturally come back when the weather is warm. They pick wood here every year."

Zhang Ping breathed a sigh of relief, and her steps became much easier, "Thank you uncle for helping to bring the letter this time."

Only then did he send the man out of the courtyard, and when he saw the man walking away, he showed his face, walked briskly towards the house, entered the house and told what he had heard, Wang Xiang had a smile on his face, that is Li De also heaved a sigh of relief.

The son's matter finally settled down, and Li De began to comfort his daughter-in-law, "Xiaoping, you have worked hard these days. Tie Zhu went out to work, so he has to come back in the spring. When he comes back, dad let me He will compensate you."

"Dad, as long as Tie Zhu is fine, it's good for him to go outside and see what happens." Zhang Ping was really happy.

Li De also breathed a sigh of relief, "My good boy, you are a sensible person, and you have worked hard these days. Don't worry, your mother and I will appreciate your kindness, and I will not wrong you in the future. This will be tomorrow. It’s the New Year, since Tie Zhu is fine, we have to spend the New Year well, bring back the meat and chicken, and send a chicken to your house, your mother has also suffered a lot in the past half month I'm so tired, our family's father is also worried about Tie Zhu, so he got angry with you, you go home and talk to your mother, the two families are in-laws, the matter is over and it will be over, don't hold grudges in your heart."

Zhang Ping lowered her eyelids and said with a smile on her face, "Look at what Dad said, they are all a family. How can you say that you don't remember grudges. My mother understands all this. Now that Tie Zhu is fine, she can rest assured."

"Good boy, then you can send a chicken to your family first, and then send a letter to your mother, so don't let her worry." Li De also knew that he didn't look good towards Zhang Ping these days, so now he will give you a chicken. Zhang Ping took it back to make up for what happened earlier.

Zhang Ping responded crisply, and went to the wing to take the chicken back to her mother's house. Although Wang Xiang was reluctant to part with a chicken in the house, she didn't want her daughter-in-law to make a fuss. Once the son's letter came, she was relieved. Most of my illness has passed away, thinking that tomorrow will be the Chinese New Year, so I don't lie down anymore, I get up and clean up the house to prepare for the Chinese New Year tomorrow.

However, the news that Li Tiezhu went to work in the city spread quickly, and some people came to Li's house to visit. When Li's house calmed down, it was already dark.
