Fisherman Fubao made his fortune by fishing
Chapter 74: The Biased Old Man Li
The next day, as soon as the sky brightened, the rooster jumped onto the wall and crowed "Cock-a-doodle-doo!"
Li Yuer covered her head with the quilt, but the rooster's voice was so loud that it seemed as if it was standing at the head of her bed and crowing.
Soon, the sound of human activity was heard in the yard.
Big Head and House Sparrow had both gotten up long ago. House Sparrow held half a black flour steamed bun in his mouth, and he and Big Head began to move the wicker box to the door.
Li Yuer originally planned to make only fifty, but for the sake of performance, they made eighty.
This time, only fifty were needed to deliver the goods to Nongchaolou, and Li Laosan did not allow the rest to be loaded.
About a quarter of an hour later, Naonao, Biaozi and Erdan came with seafood.
"Brother Naonao, if so many of us go, will Yu Baoer's car have enough room?" Erdan asked worriedly. He really wanted to go to the town to sell seafood, and even if he didn't take the car and walked by himself, he didn't want to be left behind.
Naonao ate the remaining egg in his hand in one gulp, licked his fingers, and said, "We'll see when the time comes. If it doesn't work, we'll just go on our own."
Biaozi swallowed his saliva and said, Naonao is so happy that he can have an egg every morning.
He suddenly thought of the chicken leg that Li Yuer had promised him.
"Squeak--" the courtyard door opened, and Jia Que'er saw three children standing at the door and asked, "Who are you? What are you doing?"
Naonao said, "We are Li Yuer's friends and we made an appointment with her."
When he heard that it was Li Yuer's friend, Jia Queer immediately smiled and said, "So it's Sister Xiao Yuer's friend. Come in quickly. Sister Xiao Yuer hasn't gotten up yet."
Biaozi blurted out: "She is so lazy. The sun has come out and she still hasn't gotten up."
Naonao turned around and glared at him, and Biaozi immediately shut up obediently.
Finally, after struggling and turning over on the bed one hundred and eighty times, the "carp" turned into a human form and climbed up.
Zhao thoughtfully left hot water for the Li family in the kitchen, and Li Yuer washed his face before he felt sober.
In the morning, Zhao boiled eggs for Li Yuer and others. Li Yuer peeled one and ate it in his hand. The greedy Biaozi was very envious, wondering how come they all had eggs to eat.
Li Yuer took out a bag of candy, counted out most of it and handed it to Erdan, saying, "This is the reward for hiring you to catch Tiejiangjiang yesterday."
Erdan was so happy that his face was wide open. He took it and put a piece in his mouth. It was so sweet! So sweet! Delicious!
Biaozi was so envious that he almost rushed over to grab some. He originally thought that he would not have any share, but Li Yuer gave the few remaining pieces to Nao Nao and said, "Share the rest among you."
Nao Nao took the candy without hesitation and said thank you. There were seven pieces in total, one for Er Dan, and three for him and Biao Zi.
Biaozi immediately stuffed a piece into his mouth happily, "Mm, so sweet and delicious!"
Erdan grumbled in dissatisfaction: "Why do I only have one piece?"
Biaozi held the candy in his mouth and yelled incoherently: "Who told you to eat alone? It's good enough that I gave you a piece. Otherwise, how about we join together and divide it equally again?"
"You wish!" Erdan wrapped the candy in oil paper and quickly put it into his pocket.
Naonao and Biaozi also tore the oil paper into two pieces, each of them used one piece to wrap the remaining candy and put it away.
Li Yuer stuffed the leftover chicken legs from yesterday into the stove and stewed them.
After a while, Li Laosan came over from Rabbit Island.
Li Laosan showed Li Yuer two whale bones and said, "I brought you the whale bones you asked for. I was afraid I might pick the wrong one, so I picked two. You can choose for yourself."
"Whale bones?"
Nao Nao and the others had never seen whale bones before, so they gathered around out of curiosity.
The house sparrow said in amazement: "Wow! This is a whale bone. It's so big, longer than my thigh."
Nao Nao asked: "Where is this bone so long?"
Li Yuer took a look and found that Li Laosan had taken two whale bones in total, one of which was a rib, and the other was the whale tooth that Li Yuer had originally asked Li Laosan to take.
Li Yuer rewrapped the whale tooth and said, "This is a whale tooth. I won't use it for now. I'll just use this rib."
Li Yuer originally planned to ask Wooden Man Zhang to carve one hundred "Fu" characters on the whale's tooth and then let Li Laosan go back to get the whale's tooth, but she regretted it afterwards.
There is only one whale tooth, and once it is damaged, it will be gone forever. But there are many other whale bones, so it doesn't matter if they are damaged during carving.
Fortunately, my uncle took one more piece. Thanks to my uncle this time!
Li Yuer felt that the time was about right, so she took out the chicken legs. The chicken legs that had been roasted twice were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, sizzling with oil.
There were several sounds of people swallowing saliva around them. Li Yuer handed the chicken leg to Naonao and said, "Divide it among yourselves."
Biaozi almost jumped up with joy, "Yu Baoer, you really should share the chicken legs with us!"
"Eating can't stop you from talking!" Nao Nao despised him for being so embarrassing, but he didn't refuse Li Yuer's chicken leg.
After what happened yesterday, Naonao discovered that Li Yuer was a very special child. She was brave, smart, kept her word, was generous, and was very kind.
So, when she says she wants to exchange things with you, it must be true, and she will definitely not be in a state of panic like other children afterwards.
She gives it to you, you take it.
But if you try to rob her by force, she will never give in easily. She will resist and teach the other party a lesson, letting the other party know that she, Li Yuer, is not someone to be trifled with. Just like Ma Wu, she deserves to be beaten.
Old man Li and his wife slept until dawn. The bed on land was much more comfortable than the boat deck.
After dinner, Li Meir went to the kitchen to help Zhao wash the dishes.
When Li Yuer saw Li Meier, she asked her, "Are you going to town later?"
Li Mei'er said, "I'm not going. You guys go. I'll stay at home with grandma and the others."
Although they were guests, Zhao had to serve the whole family alone and make medicine for two patients, so she was really too busy to handle it.
Li Meir helped her from the side, not doing any heavy work, but mostly trivial and light chores.
Li Yu'er didn't force it and asked again, "Then does Sister Mei'er want to bring anything?"
Li Mei'er thought for a moment and said, "Please bring me a package of thread. I want a big package, not one with a box. The ones with boxes are expensive, eight cents a package. Don't buy expensive ones, remember that."
"Got it! Little housekeeper! Lululu!" Li Yuer made a face at Li Meir and ran into the yard.
As soon as Mr. and Mrs. Li walked out of the west wing, they saw a group of children standing in the yard.
"Where do all these kids come from?" Old Man Li looked at Li Lao San and seemed to have thought of something. He immediately glared at him and said, "Lao San, are you forming a clique and doing something bad again?"
It’s only been a few days since he caused trouble last time, and now this brat is making trouble again. He has just been in Fushui Village for a few days, so we can’t let him ruin our plan of moving.
Li Laosan frowned. It was early in the morning and he was in a good mood. Why did his father dislike him and belittle him everywhere?
Just as he was about to explode, he was interrupted by Li Yuer, who ate eggs and said, "Grandpa, we are not doing bad things. Big Head Brother and Jia Que'er have made a lot of wicker boxes. These were ordered by someone, and we are going to deliver the goods today.
Nao Nao is the son of the village chief. He was going to the town to sell seafood today, and I thought, since it was on the way, why not just follow the car together?"
"Well, Grandpa's Yu Baoer is still sensible. Since you have something to do, just go and do it. By the way, Yu Baoer, do you have enough money to spend when you go to town? If not, Grandpa has some. Come on, come on!"
As he spoke, Old Man Li took out ten copper coins from his pocket. This was a reward from Old Lady Cai, and he was reluctant to spend his own money.
Old Mrs. Cai on the side watched with a smile, which was an attitude of tacit approval.
Li Laosan: ...
Is he his parents' biological son? Why do they dislike him so much?
Before Yu Baoer could react, ten more copper coins appeared in his hand.
Old Man Li: "Go quickly, the sooner you go, the sooner you will be back."
Old Mrs. Cai: "If you are hungry, buy some meat buns. Don't starve yourself to death. Poor old lady, you didn't even catch your fish and slept in."
Li Laosan: This guy is so biased that he is biased to the extreme! Are there any family rules in this family?
Old Man Li: "Old Third, just follow Yu Baoer and don't cause trouble! Did you hear me? Every day, you do things that are unwelcome!"
Old Mrs. Cai: "Yu Baoer, if you encounter trouble in the future, you should run first and let your Third Uncle take the blame. He has thick skin and flesh, so he will be fine even if he gets slapped a few times."
After saying that, the old couple went to have breakfast with satisfaction.
"Puff! Hahahahahaha!" After Old Man Li left, House Sparrow couldn't help but laughed out loud.
Li Laosan glared at him and he quickly shut up.
"Hahahahaha!" Then, even louder laughter broke out in the yard.
