Living in a Siheyuan

In the hospital, He Yuzhu, who arranged He Yushui to stay at Li Pingan's house, soon came to Qin Huairu.

Seeing Qin Huairu still waiting outside the operating room, Jia Dongxu did not come out. He handed Qin Huairu the thirty yuan he had brought from home and said, "Sister Qin, take this thirty yuan and use it first. Pay the fee first."

Qin Huairu took the money from He Yuzhu and said gratefully: "Thank you, Zhuzi. I will return it to you when Dongxu starts working."

"It's okay, you can use it first. I don't need much money by myself. We can talk to you if it's not enough."

Qin Huairu thanked He Yuzhu again and again and went to pay the fee.

The two waited outside for a while before the door of the operating room opened. Jia Dongxu was also pushed out.

Qin Huairu quickly stepped forward and asked, "Doctor, how is my man?"

The doctor looked at Qin Huairu and said, "His old injury hasn't healed yet, and this one is even worse. Although he had surgery, he will probably have to lie down for a long time. Even if he recovers in the future, it will affect his normal walking."

Qin Huairu almost fainted after hearing this. Doesn't this mean that she might have to lie down for the rest of her life? How can she live like this?

After several people settled Jia Dongxu down, He Yuzhu could no longer stay in the hospital. He comforted Qin Huairu for a while and then went home.

After Li Ping'an had done what he was supposed to do, he no longer paid attention to the Jia family's affairs. He could guess what the consequences would be.

After seeing off He Yushui who had finished her meal, Li Pingan went into the space.

Now the output of space is increasing. This is the result of his instructions to Lu Dehua to control it.

I went to the warehouse and saw that it was filled with various grains and meats.

I think I should deal with some of them, otherwise there will be more and more in the future.

After practicing till midnight, Li Pingan came out.

He changed his clothes and dressed like last time, and headed for the black market.

Find Xiao Liuzi and ask him to take him to the small courtyard where Wu Ye and the others are staying.

When Wu Ye saw Li Ping'an coming, he said happily, "Brother Anzi, I've been waiting for you to come. Do you have any more goods this time?"

Li Pingan also smiled and bowed to Master Wu and Master Ba, saying, "I came here to deliver the goods to Master Wu, but they said they don't want money this time, but want to pay with gold and some antiques. What do you think, Master Wu?"

Some people say that they don't know much about antiques and want to exchange them. In fact, antiques at that time were not valuable, and not many people would forge them. Even some fake ones that have been handed down were made before liberation. These things are cheap now, and even if one out of ten is real, it will be worth a lot of money in the future. Especially after a few years, it will be even cheaper.

Wu Ye and the others listened to Li Ping'an's words, thought about it and said, "It's possible, but time is tight now, and we don't have much stuff here."

In the end, the two sides met at the same place as last time and traded goods worth about ten thousand yuan.

Li Pingan used food and meat to exchange for more than 20 small yellow croakers and some antique calligraphy and paintings, and asked Wu Ye and his men to help collect some precious medicinal seeds.

After the transaction, Li Pingan went back home to rest. He would buy these things for a long time in the future, and leave more wealth for future generations.

The next day, Li Pingan came to the factory. Before he had sat in the office for long, Zhou Changming dragged him to Liu Zhiwei's place.

When they arrived at Liu Zhiwei's office, he smiled and said to Li Pingan, "Ping An, I asked you to come here this time because I need you to do something."

Li Pingan said, "Section Chief, if you have anything to ask, just tell me. I will do my best to do what I can."

Liu Zhiwei was very pleased with Li Ping'an's attitude. He said, "National Day is coming soon, and our factory wants to have a dinner party. But now everyone is scrambling for meat at the meat processing plant, and we can't get much. Do you think you can get more?"

After listening to Liu Zhiwei's words, Li Pingan thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll go into the mountains again this time to have a look. I can't guarantee how much I can get."

In fact, he had a lot of wild boars and rabbits in his space, but it would be suspicious if he took them out too easily. Now was not the time to be too ostentatious.

After leaving the office, Zhou Changming gave Li Pingan the key to the motorcycle and asked him to ride away.

This motorcycle has almost become Li Pingan's exclusive use. No one else can drive it. Even if someone wants to practice and learn, Zhou Changming won't let them. One reason is that he is afraid of breaking it, and the other is that gasoline is hard to get. The factory only gives them that much per month, so they don't dare to ride it around.

Amid the envious looks of others, Li Ping'an rode his motorcycle out of the factory.

He did not go directly to the mountains, but went to Yu Li's house first.

When he arrived at Yu Li's house, he had a bunch of bananas and some apples in his hands.

Some aunties at the gate saw Li Ping'an delivering gifts to Yu Li's family again. They all envied the Yu family for finding a good son-in-law, and they sent good gifts to the family every now and then.

After greeting the aunties at the door, Li Pingan came to Yu Li's house.

Yu Li and her mother were pasting paper boxes when they saw Li Pingan coming. They happily put down their work and ran over to say, "Brother Pingan, aren't you busy today?"

"I'm not busy today, I came to see you."

After saying that, he handed her the thing in his hand.

Yu's mother also said enthusiastically: "Ping An, sit down and drink some water." Seeing what Yu Li was holding, she added: "Don't buy these messy things in the future. We have everything at home now. You should save some money. When you and Li Li get married, you will have to raise children."

Yu Li blushed at her mother's words. She said to her, "Mom, what did you say? We are not married yet."

Yu's mother also teased, "You are not married, but your heart has already left you."

Li Pingan also sat down amid the laughter of the mother and daughter. He said, "Aunt, this is something a friend of our department brought back from out of town. It's hard to buy here, so I brought it here for you to try."

Now Yu Linhai has gone to work, Yu Haitang and Yu Xiaohu have gone to school, so they are the only ones at home.

Li Ping'an chatted with Yu Li for a while and was about to leave. Yu Li sent Li Ping'an outside.

Li Pingan said, "I'm going to the mountains this afternoon and will be back the day after tomorrow. I was afraid that I would be away during your visit, so I came to tell you."

Hearing that Li Ping'an was going into the mountains again, Yu Li was still worried and said, "Then you must be careful and find a few more people to help you. I'll wait for you at home."

After saying that, he looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he went forward and tidied up Li Ping'an's clothes.

Seeing such a well-behaved and beautiful daughter-in-law, Li Pingan hugged her in his arms and kissed her on the forehead.

Yu Li was also shocked by his bold action, and quickly pushed him away, saying, "I'm going to die. This is on the roadside, what if someone sees us?"

As he said this, he gently hit Li Ping'an's chest with his little fist.

Li Pingan said with a smile: "Then I will kiss you next time when no one is around."

Yu Li blushed as she pushed Li Pingan into the car and said, "Let's go quickly. Be careful on the road. Remember to bring more food with you into the mountains."

Yu Li reluctantly saw Li Ping'an off. She touched her red face and the corners of her mouth curled up with happiness.

I rode my bike all the way to Zhangjiazhuang, feeling the wind blowing across my face. It was a great feeling. No wonder many people in later generations like to travel by motorcycle, which is completely different from driving a car.

Li Pingan, who could have arrived quickly using the space, took more than two hours to get there by motorcycle. He found a deserted spot at the foot of the mountain, put his bike into the space, and went straight up the mountain.

He planned to have some fun in the mountains this time. It was autumn, and it was a pleasant time to go for a walk in the mountains.

We kept going deeper and deeper. This time we didn't stop at the hill ahead, but went straight to the place where we found the tiger last time.

Seeing that this place is in a mess, it seems that without the tiger's deterrent, small animals have come here.

Without much pause, he continued to go deeper inside.

Soon, a group of sika deer were found in a forest, leisurely grazing.

I thought that these animals would be protected in the future, and they would have to be artificially bred if they were to be eaten. And they were ridiculously expensive. So I collected them and put them in the space so that I could eat them however I wanted.

After doing all this, seeing that it was getting late, I went into the space.

After practicing for a night, he finally felt that the seventh meridian had loosened up a bit. It was estimated that it would be opened in a few months. By then, he would enter the late stage of Qi Refining and his own strength would also be improved.

It was already noon when he came out of the space. He continued to search in the forest.

This time he no longer used space to hurry on his way, but looked carefully as he walked.

At noon, he found a vine on the edge of a cliff. It was covered with sharp thorns. He tried it and found that it was also very strong.

Isn't this the auxiliary seed for using the entanglement technique that he most hopes to find?

Carefully dig out this bunch of vines and put them into the space so that Lu Dehua can cultivate more seeds.

Holding a few seeds he had just picked up when digging up the vines, Li Pingan practiced his skills. The spiritual energy in his hands penetrated into the seeds, and he used his spiritual sense to throw the vines under a big tree. The vine seeds grew rapidly and soon wrapped around the trunk of the tree. The thorns also pierced into the bark.

Li Pingan was very satisfied with the effect. After thinking about it, he named the vine "Iron Wire Vine", which means that the vine is thin and strong.

Having gained something, he continued to inspect the mountains carefully.

In the afternoon, he found a few wild ginseng plants in a shady forest. They were not big, and only a few years old. He didn't mind, since the space medicine field had a tenfold acceleration. He dug them all in and asked Liu Mi to plant them.

He walked around until night but didn't find anything special, so he planned to stay another night and go back tomorrow morning.

The next morning, Li Ping'an rushed out of the mountain. This time he went a little deeper. It took him more than two hours to get out of the mountain.

He found a secluded forest at the foot of the mountain and looked inside. It was not bad. He found some traces of many people having been there. He then drove his motorcycle to the steel mill.

When I arrived at the factory, I found Zhou Changqing and Liu Zhiwei.

Seeing that Li Ping'an had returned safely, Liu Zhiwei asked, "How was Li Ping'an? How much did you gain this time?"

"I called a lot of people this time, and we took down a small wild boar den. Although a few escaped, we still managed to kill more than a dozen wild boars, weighing about three thousand kilograms in total. We also killed some pheasants, rabbits, and four roe deer. The total weight was at least three thousand five hundred kilograms."

Liu Zhiwei and Zhou Changming were overjoyed to hear so many. They quickly arranged for a vehicle.

This time the team also had a special driver. As soon as they heard that there was meat, they immediately sent out a truck with good performance.

Zhou Changming also called five or six people to help load the truck.

Li Pingan was riding a motorcycle with Zhou Changming sitting behind him, and Liu Zhiwei was sitting in the truck bed, leading the way in front.

There were five or six people on the truck at the back helping with loading.

The group soon arrived at the edge of the woods.

Li Ping'an went into the woods first, claiming that the hunters helping him inside were unwilling to show up.

He took out a dozen wild boars of different sizes that had been prepared long ago from the space, as well as a batch of pheasants, rabbits, and four silly roe deer.

Seeing that everything was ready, he walked out of the woods and waved to everyone.

When everyone saw the prey all over the ground, they were also a little shocked.

Then Liu Zhiwei directed several people and quickly loaded all the things into the truck.

When we returned to the steel mill, Director Li from the logistics department and Director Yang came. They were so happy to see so many things brought back.

The problem of having a dinner before National Day has finally been solved.

Factory Director Yang Weimin even came over to Li Ping'an and said, "Great, young comrade. This time it's all thanks to you. Work hard. You will definitely get a reward."

Li Huaide also praised Li Pingan a few words.

Afterwards, he said there was nothing more for him to do.

He took the warehouse receipt and went to the finance office to collect the money, and got more than a thousand yuan. He now has more than ten thousand yuan in his space. Too much money is really just a number. There is no place to spend it.

Although it was not the end of the get off work day, Liu Zhiwei still let him go home and rest, and gave him another day off tomorrow.

Li Ping'an rode out of the factory on the motorcycle specially approved by Zhou Changming.

He first came to Yu Li's house. After all, Yu Li was still worried about him, so she wanted to tell her when she came back.

He took out a hare and a pheasant from the truck bed and came to Yu's house under the envious eyes of the neighbors.
