Good luck every time

When Li Ruyi came back, Li Er had already chopped a lot of firewood.

"Stop chopping wood, come help me load the car and we'll be leaving."

Li Er agreed, put down his hatchet and came to help.

Li Ruyi opened the door and pointed to the four sacks of salt that had been divided out.

"Let's move these to the car."

Li Er stretched out his hand and grabbed the sack, trying to carry it on his back, but was staggered by the weight.

He was a little bit unbelieving and tried harder.

Li Ruyi stood beside him and lifted the sack using his back. Together they finally managed to carry the sack on Li Er's shoulders.

Li Nian took two steps and still felt it was quite heavy, so Li Ruyi helped him hold it up.

"Let's go, move it to the car."

Li Er is showing off his ability.

"No need for you, I can do it myself."

Li Ruyi was speechless.

"Hurry up! It's not because I feel sorry for you, I'm afraid you'll drop my salt."

Li Er: ...

The two men moved the salt onto the cart. Li Jixiang heard the noise and came over to hold the cart.

With a bang, the sack fell onto the car, raising a cloud of dust.

Li Ershi and Li Ruyi did this three times and finally put the big scale on the car.

After finishing the work, Li Ruyi found some wooden strips and nailed a simple shelf together in no time.

The rack was buckled onto the car, and she laid a tarpaulin on top of it.

This salt is not afraid of the sun, but it is afraid of rain.

Seeing that in this season, whether it will rain or not doesn’t matter to her, so it’s better to be prepared.

While she was spreading the oilcloth, her eldest sister had already found some strong straw ropes to tie them to the car, and then put a tattered quilt on the ropes.

When she finished packing, the third child also brought out the backpack.

In addition to the things that Li Ruyi must bring, the backpack also contained a cloth bag of dry food and two bamboo tubes filled with water.

Li Ruyi took out the bamboo tube and stuck it on the rack, then put the basket on his back.

"The third brother, go and take down the threshold!"

Li Ruyi directed the third brother to work.

The third brother scurried out for a long distance, ran to the door and removed the threshold.

Li Er looked at the flatbed cart and then at Li Ruyi.

Sighed.

It seems that he is the only one who can do the heavy work of pulling the cart.

He resigned himself to his fate and put the straw rope on his shoulders. He pushed the ground hard with his feet and put all his weight on it, and the cart began to move shakily.

Li Ruyi stretched out his hand to push the back of the cart and also pushed it forward with force.

The salt and the cart weigh nearly 400 kilograms.

Even on this broken road, the mule can only pull 200 pounds more than them.

With the addition of Li Ruyi, Li Er was finally able to pull it together.

The wheels of the cart rumbled as the two men walked with difficulty in the village.

Li Er began to despair before he even left the village.

"Li Ruyi, did I owe you something in my previous life?"

He stretched out his legs and moved forward with difficulty step by step.

Li Ruyi pushed hard, feeling powerless in her heart.

But when she thought that all this was for the purpose of making money, she felt motivated again.

No matter how slowly we walk, we are still on the road. If we cannot reach our destination this year, it will be the same if we arrive tomorrow!

In this atmosphere, the two saw Old Man Li standing on the road.

Old man Li looked at the two of them and sighed.

Li Ershi stopped the car and took a deep breath.

"Master..."

Li Ruyi also stood up, crawled out from the back of the car, and looked at Old Man Li.

"Second Master!"

Old man Li frowned.

"Are you two just going to pull over like this?"

Li Ruyi nodded.

"Yes! I'll be back in three or four days."

Old Man Li: ...

"Will you deliver goods this way in the future?"

Li Ruyi shook her head.

"Let's see how things go next month. If I have money, I'll buy a donkey. If not, I'll just hold out for another two months. This is the only trip I'll make in a month."

After hearing what Li Ruyi said, Old Man Li's brows relaxed a little.

After thinking for a while he said.

"As long as you know what's going on."

After saying that, he stuffed the pipe into his belt and waved at Li Er.

"Go home and tell them, and I'll go with you."

Li Er's rough hands grabbed the hemp rope.

"Master, I can do it..."

Old man Li slapped him on the back.

"hurry up!"

Li Ershi's back was slapped loudly by him, which showed that he didn't hold back at all.

He wanted to struggle a little longer, but Old Man Li was very persistent.

"Go quickly, or I'll follow you like this and you'll get beaten when you get home."

Li Er clenched his fists tightly, feeling indescribable in his heart. He gritted his teeth, and after being slapped by the old man, he finally made up his mind, let go and ran back home.

Old man Li took the position that Li Er just occupied.

Although he is old, he is still in good health and has not neglected the farm work at home and outside. He is more capable than Li Er.

Li Ruyi didn't say that he didn't need her to speak, there was no need to be stubborn at this time.

She guessed who in the family Li Er would confess to. She didn't know who it was before, but now she knew.

Old man Li was pulling the cart and Li Ruyi was pushing it behind him, increasing the speed of the cart.

Li Erfei ran home quickly. He was feeling upset. Before he could think of who to talk to, he saw his skinny little grandmother waiting at the door with a bag of dry food.

The old lady has given birth to many children. She is no longer young and her health is not good. She doesn't care about anything at home or outside.

Li Er always felt that his memory of his grandmother was very vague. It seemed that there was only a silent figure of her holding a needle and thread basket and making shoes under the window all day long.

When the little old lady saw him coming back, she smiled and showed a few of her teeth.

Most of her teeth have fallen out, and her smile looks kind of cute.

"How many days will you be back?"

Li Er felt sad.

"Mother...I..."

The old lady stretched out her deformed hand and patted Li Er's arm.

"Take it! My family can't help you much, so it's a good thing that you have a way out."

Li Er took the grain and the whitened bamboo tube handed over by the old lady.

"Milk……"

"Go! Go... help your grandfather with more work. You are more promising than your brothers. Good days are ahead of you!"

Their family didn't have many resources, and now that Li Er had a way out, the old lady always wanted to help.

Li Er glanced at the old lady.

"We will be back in three or four days. I...I will definitely do more work for my grandfather."

The old lady smiled and waved at him.

Li Er turned around and ran back with the bag of grain to find Li Ruyi and the others.

He caught up with her in a short while, stood beside Li Ruyi, and bent down to push the cart.

With three people together, the pressure of several hundred kilograms was not that great, and the speed increased.

Li Ruyi brought enough straw sandals with her so that she could replace them when her shoes were broken.

The three of them walked and rested, and arrived at the place where Li Ruyi had an appointment before dark.

Li Ruyi originally planned to camp out at the foot of the mountain tonight, and get up early tomorrow morning to find someone to move the salt up the mountain.

But she didn't expect that when she arrived at the agreed place, she would see a scene that surprised her extremely.

Suddenly, a prototype of a wooden house appeared on the empty space.

Li Ruyi hurriedly stopped the car. She asked Old Man Li and Li Ershi to wait here while she ran over to check.

Hearing her footsteps, people around the wooden house suddenly became alert.

When he saw that it was Li Ruyi, Tian Twelve was obviously stunned.

"Why are you here now?"

There were still several days before the agreed time, and he never expected Li Ruyi to appear here.

In an instant, many reasons emerged in Li Ruyi's mind.

However, when her eyes fell on the wooden house, those reasons seemed untenable.
