Li Zile ran all the way, but when he arrived at Xu Shu's house, he suddenly calmed down.

Would it be useful for him to go to the mute to talk to him? Would the mute be obedient and leave Xu Shu after being scolded by him? It was more likely that the mute would wait for Xu Shu to come back and report him, so that Secretary Xu would hate him.

This is really a loss.

Li Zile calmed down, but didn't know what to do, so he could only return home in despair.

As soon as he got home, he saw his alcoholic father was drunk again. Seeing him come back, his father staggered to his feet and tried to walk towards him, but because he was drunk, he couldn't even walk in a straight line and fell to the ground after just two steps.

Li Zile would have helped her in the past, but today he didn't want to care. If he didn't have such an alcoholic father, how could he have been 17 years old without anyone proposing marriage? In another year, he would be a boy. If no one married him, would he be trapped in this family for the rest of his life?

"Brother!" Li Zile shouted angrily, "Dad fell to the ground, come out and help him up!"

No one answered in the room. It was obvious that the gambling brother had gone out to fool around again.

Li Zile was so angry that his lungs were about to explode, and he cursed: "You deserve it that you can't get a wife at the age of 20."

After scolding him, he went to help his father, and after a lot of trouble, he put him on the bed, and then went to the kitchen to boil water and cook. He didn't cook, and when his father sobered up, he scolded him for being unfilial.

Li Zile stood beside the pot, watching the water in the pot gradually go from smoking to boiling, watching the bubbles rise and burst. He suddenly squatted down, buried his head in his arms, and burst into tears in grievance.

I had only shed a few tears when I heard a man's voice outside the door asking, "Excuse me, is anyone there?"

Li Zile was so scared that he quickly stood up, wiped his tears, and hurried out. He saw a man in luxurious clothes standing at the door, and pursed his lips again: "My brother is not at home, and my family has no money."

Wu Yong saw that the person in front of him misunderstood him, and quickly waved his hands: "No, I'm not here... Well, I want to ask where Xu Shu's home is? He was too busy to leave, so he asked me to send something home. But this is my first time here, and I don't recognize the place."

Li Zile then remembered that when Xu Shu came back in a carriage today, there was indeed a young man in the carriage. However, his whole attention was on Xu Shu at that time, and he did not notice this person.

But after understanding the purpose of the visit, he felt a little disgusted: "Didn't you come here just now? How come you forgot so quickly?"

Speaking of this, Wu Yong was embarrassed: "The houses in this area are all very similar. I'm confused. Can you please tell me where it is?"

Hearing his good attitude, Li Zile didn't want to continue to be aggressive, so he pointed in the direction of Xu Shu's house and said, "It's the thatched house over there, remember it?"

Wu Yong took a look and said quickly that he had made a note of it. He thanked him again and left in a hurry.

Li Zile watched him leave, wiped his face again, and then went back to the kitchen to continue cooking.

But after a while, the man's voice came again: "Little brother? Little brother, are you still there?"

Li Zile came out of the kitchen with a frown on his face. Sure enough, it was that man again. He was puzzled: "What else?"

Wu Yong scratched his head embarrassedly: "Little brother, I still don't recognize it very well. Can you help me lead the way? Uh... I have a few bowls of pork ribs here, can I give you one bowl?"

Li Zile's eyes darted around twice, and when he saw the food box hanging on the man's arm, he said, "Two bowls."

Wu Yong nodded quickly: "No problem, no problem."

Is it so easy to talk? Li Zile was a little confused, but he didn't think too much about it. He said to him, "Then wait a moment, I'll put out the fire and come out."

He went back to the kitchen to put out the firewood first, and then took the man to Xu Shu's house. Xu Shu's house was very close, and there were a few thatched houses next to it, but they were not like this at all. I really don't know what this young man's eyes are like?

"This is it." Li Zile pointed to the place, "Then I'm leaving. Where are the spareribs?"

Wu Yong hurriedly took out two bowls from the lunch box and gave them to him: "You eat."

They brought back twenty bowls this time. There were fifteen people on Jiang Xiao's side, so there were five bowls left. Xu Shu said that Mu Ge'er was still taking medicine, and Doctor Qi had just told him not to eat anything too greasy, so he only left one bowl for Mu Ge'er. He and Xu Shu shared the remaining four bowls equally.

But Xu Shu was suddenly stopped by Jiang Xiao, and no one knew what they were discussing in a mysterious manner. The other brothers also had things to do, but Wu Yong was bored, so he volunteered to return the ribs to Mu Ge'er.

Xu Shu kept two bowls for himself and gave him the rest: "Tell Xiao Mujin that I will be back soon, but you, do you remember the way?"

Wu Yong agreed confidently, but when he arrived at the place, he couldn't recognize it. Fortunately, he had this young man to help him.

Wu Yong saw that the boy's eyes lit up when he saw Pai Gu, and he couldn't help asking out of curiosity: "Why did you cry just now?"

Li Zile was planning to take the bowl home, but he shuddered when he heard this. He stared at the man in front of him warily: "Why are you asking this?"

Wu Yong wanted to say that he felt sorry for you, but he thought that if he said that, the boy in front of him would probably get angry, so he hesitated and asked, "What's your name?"

Li Zile didn't want to tell him and glared at him fiercely. If this man hadn't given him ribs to eat, he would have turned around and ran away. "What's your name?"

"My last name is Wu, and my given name is Yong." Wu Yong said with a smile, "Now can I tell you what your name is?"

Li Zile hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "Li Zile, my name is Li Zile."

After that, he ran away, holding two bowls of pork ribs, saying as he ran, "I'll return the bowls to you later."

Wu Yong saw him running very fast with the bowl in his hand, and subconsciously shouted to him, "Slow down, don't fall."

Li Zile felt a little uncomfortable when he heard this, thinking about how his mother had said the same thing to him before, he was really slow.

He went home and poured all the ribs into the pot. This bowl of meat was quite filling, and two bowls were enough for his father to eat to his heart's content. Li Zile planned to heat it up before eating, and then washed the bowl with a cloth, making sure it was clean, and then hurried to Xu Shu's house.

Wu Yong gave the unwashed bowls and the pork ribs to Mu Jinghua, and then remembered Xu Shu's instructions: "He said that the bowls should be washed when he comes back. They are too greasy to wash, so he asked you to practice calligraphy after eating."

Mu Jinghua paused as he was about to take the bowls, glanced at Wu Yong, and finally took the ribs on the table.

The ribs were a little cold, but still edible. There was a lot of meat on each chop. Mu Jinghua chewed the bones carefully, afraid of wasting any meat.

Wu Yong watched him eat for a while and asked him, "Do you guys eat so slowly?"

Mu Jinghua didn't understand what was going on. He looked up at Wu Yong and was about to ask why he said that when a boy's voice came from outside the door: "Hey, are you there?"

As soon as Wu Yong heard it, he knew that the person was looking for him, and he quickly replied, "Yes, yes, yes."

He ran out shouting, but no one knew what the emergency was.
