"Yulan, have you got everything?" Li Zhiguo got up early in the morning and explained everything about the store before driving home in a hurry. Hu Yulan sorted out two big bags full of presents to take back.

"Take it." Hu Yulan looked around, and after thinking about it, Li Kang, who hadn't appeared yet, couldn't help but sigh.

"Mumu, come down quickly, we have to go back early to receive guests." Seventy is a birthday, and there are many people who want to be invited by Yan. As the eldest son, Li Zhiguo must personally receive and take care of him.

Departing at 20 o'clock, it took an hour to drive back to the town from the county seat. The road to my home in the town has not been repaired, so I hurried for more than [-] minutes to get home.For the banquets in the countryside, cooks are invited to come to the house to cook, and the aunts in the neighbors help to wash the vegetables and dishes. Although Li Zhiguo has been struggling for money during this period, he is not frugal for his mother's birthday banquet. The level is the first in the village.

Li Zhiguo and his wife put down their things and went to greet the guests. Li Mu was assigned to watch the children. The firecrackers were too loud and pungent when the guests came.

Let’s talk about Tianning County, Wang Biao sat in front of Li Kang with his legs crossed, and Li Kang looked uncomfortable, blowing his nose and rubbing his face from time to time: "Brother Biao, is it time?"

Wang Biao waved his hand: "Don't look at the time, just wait until your father and the others leave." Patted a cloth bag beside him: "This amount is enough for you for a month, and there is still [-] cash. I will be kind to you." Righteousness has come."

"Thank you, Brother Biao, thank you, Brother Biao." Li Kang bowed his head and looked at the cloth bag with green eyes: "Brother Biao, can you..."

"No, when your goods arrive, I will give them to you."

"Yes... yes..." Li Kang swallowed hard, and stood aside respectfully.

Finally, someone came in: "Brother Biao, you've gone far away." Wang Biao said lightly: "Li Kang, it's up to you."

"No problem." Li Kang went out and got on a Taida truck. Under Wang Biao's signal, more than [-] people drove five trucks to keep up with Li Kang, and the license plates of each truck were tightly pasted with red paper. .The car drove directly to the warehouse, and Li Kang got out of the car. The person in charge was an old man who had been with Li Zhiguo for more than ten years. When he saw Li Kang, he was taken aback: "Kangzi, you didn't go home?" Know the details.

"My dad has something to ship out in a hurry today, so he left me to ship it." Li Kang yawned and said with tears in his eyes.

"Impossible, the batch from the school agreed to hand in the day after tomorrow, and your father only confirmed it this morning." Bi Shihai was puzzled.

Li Kang winked at the people behind him, and the young man who was smoking a cigarette pushed towards Bi Shihai: "Just pull, why are you talking so much nonsense?"

"What are you doing? The boss said that the goods will be delivered after the day." Bi Shihai's heart tightened, knowing that this matter was tricky, he gave Li Kang a hard look, and had worked with Li Zhiguo for more than ten years, and his loyalty was self-evident.

Bi Shihai had a lot of strength, and when he pushed back, the young man staggered forward, turned around and started cursing: "You bastard, dare to push me!" He stretched out his hand as if to hit someone.

The yellow hair on the side tugged smoothly: "It's important."

The young man gave a "bah" and said, "Lock up this old thing." Immediately, several people stepped forward to hold Bi Shihai and drag him to the toilet. Can survive being locked up together.

Ignoring the shouts of Bi Shihai and the others, Li Kang was pushed aside, and more than [-] people began to load the car, and they were busy until two o'clock in the afternoon, and the shop was completely cleaned.

Looking at the empty facade, Li Kang felt mixed feelings, and he jumped into the car and left with the convoy.

Several helpers broke open the door together after hearing the silence outside, and were stunned to see the miserable state of the store. Bi Shihai came out with a limp, his expression changed, and he hurriedly picked up the phone to call Li Zhiguo's hometown.

The feasts in the countryside could not be over until [-]:[-]. Li Zhiguo was fed a lot by the brothers who grew up with him, his face was flushed from drinking, and his head was swollen. When he received the phone call, his eyes turned red instantly. Regardless of going back to the table, she told Hu Yulan, pushed the bicycle under the eaves, and rode towards the town. When she got on the car, the more she thought about it, the faster the speed became. In a daze, I saw a truck speeding towards me in front of me, and I was startled. I swung the steering wheel to the right and rushed over the mountain. There was a sandy beach below, and the car seemed to shake the road twice when it fell.

The driver of the truck turned pale with fright. He got out of the car and looked down the road. He was stunned for a few seconds when the car rolled over. There was no movement in the car. left.

Hu Yulan didn't find out about Li Zhiguo's car accident more than half an hour later. The children in the village who were in junior high school in the town went to watch the fun after school and found out that it was Li Zhiguo. They ran home and told the adults. Rushing over non-stop, Li Zhiguo had already been sent to the hospital. She was diagnosed as dead when she arrived at the hospital.

Li Mu stared blankly at his father who had already been covered with a white cloth. Two hours ago, his father was fine. How could it be like this?She can't take it.Surrounded by relatives and friends, they comforted Hu Yulan's mother and daughter sincerely or pretendingly, but Li Mu couldn't listen anymore, Dad, how could you just leave?

But some people didn't even leave time for Hu Yulan's mother and daughter to grieve. In the countryside, people pay attention to burying themselves in the soil, Taoist priests choose a good day, and the burial day is five days later, but the next day, there are people who come to hear the news Suppliers are surrounded in the mourning hall.

"Don't worry, we will pay back the payment as soon as possible." Hu Yulan's eyes were red, she hadn't slept all night, and her face was terribly pale due to her grief.

"Sister-in-law, it's not that I'm afraid you won't give it, but I'm also in a hurry to spend money, so I can't do anything about it." The man who spoke was anxious, and the news that Li Kang had moved out of the warehouse was spread in the industry last night. I can’t blame him for opening it. Li Zhiguo owes a lot of money. I heard that the bank owes 30 to [-] yuan. Everyone in the industry knows who owes it. If you get the money as soon as possible, you will be yourself. Can he sell his wife and children?

Everyone else agreed, Hu Yulan coughed twice, her voice was already hoarse: "Can I wait until Zhiguo is buried? I will remember every single amount of your money, and I will not refuse Return." Word by word, clearly, but as if soaked in bitter water.

"Siblings and sisters are people who keep their word, let's take it as a gift to Zhiguo." One of them couldn't see it, so he mentioned this sentence.The sound of mourning and joy is a bit unbearable.

"Don't worry, even if you sell a house or a car, I won't lose any money from you."

After hearing Hu Yulan's words, everyone was relieved a little. After so many years of dealing with her, they knew more or less who she was, and everyone left more or less money as a gift, and even left without food. all left.

Li Mu knelt in front of the mourning hall and stared dumbly at what happened in front of him, his father was gone, what about the debts he owed?

Li Zhiguo went up to the mountain at 14 o'clock in the morning, burned the house, and had to light lamps for seven consecutive days at night. On the first night, his relatives had to place them around the burned house. Li Kang had no news, so Li Mu lit candles and incense sticks. , placed the ashes around the house one by one, the peers and elders were not allowed to come, the 12-year-old cousin and the [-]-year-old cousin were waiting by the side, Li Mu sniffed and took the two back, and the cousin Li Ruiting With their chests straightened out, each hand held the other, and the three of them returned home in silence.

Grandma Li sent a white-haired person to a black-haired person, how could she bear such a blow?I have been lying in bed for five days: "Kang Zi, where did he go?"

Second Uncle Li stared and wanted to say something, but he didn't say anything after looking at the old mother.
