Chapter 124: Lao Li's shock

Chapter 124 Lao Li’s shock

 After returning home from the dock.

As expected, my son was crying again because he had done it. Now Zhou Xiaoying was holding him and washing his butt.

Moreover, this kid was extremely uncooperative. When he was hugging him, he kept kicking his feet and kept leaning his head toward his mother's upper body.

 Looking at the situation, I should be hungry again after having a bowel movement.

In order to make it easier to take care of the child, Xiaoying didn't wear any underwear these days. She just pushed the milk over and wiped his **** with gauze while breastfeeding.

 After wiping the child's buttocks and washing them, Li Duoyu took the dirty water in the basin to a nearby drain and poured it out. Then he filled two buckets of water and rinsed the soiled diapers.

Aniang saw him washing diapers and said quickly: "You have been busy all day. Just leave this by the door and I will wash it."

"Hey, it's easy. Besides, it's too hot. After a while, it will be full of flies."

At this time, Zhu Xiuhua, who had just gone out to fill the bath water, started to click her tongue when she saw that Li Duoyu was helping to wash diapers.

Deliberately said to the person in the room listening to the radio:

“Aniang, look at my family. She also helps take care of the children and washes diapers. Unlike some people, the children have grown so big and they have never helped wash them once.”

When Li Yaoguo heard this, he turned off the radio on the spot and went back to his room dejectedly.

 Chen Huiying on the side said with a smile:

"This is not easy. You have another child, and let Yaoguo take care of the child and wash the diapers. Otherwise, it will end."

The second sister-in-law complained: "I can hardly support myself, so how can I have any children?"

Lao Li, who was sitting on a rocking chair and shaking a cattail leaf fan, said seriously: "If you really want to have a baby, whether it's a boy or a girl, I'll provide you with everything from food to clothes."

 Lao Li's generation certainly hopes to have as many grandchildren as possible.

 “Dad, this is what you said.”

Zhu Xiuhua then shouted into the room: "Yaoguo, your father said that we should have another child, and he will take care of everything about the child."

Li Yaoguo didn't dare to answer at all. Before nine o'clock in the evening, he was lying on the bed pretending to be dead.

 Damn it, I’m tired of lifting my pants now.

There is no way you can trick me into having a baby.

He talks nicely, and when the time comes, maybe he will become the person who washes diapers and takes care of babies.

Li Duoyu was also on the side, laughing when he heard it. Speaking of it, the second sister-in-law in the previous life had been complaining about his second brother because he only gave birth to one child.

 Actually, the second sister-in-law has always wanted to have another child, but the second brother has no idea at all.

 Because it was in 1982.

The family planning policy has been out for a long time. As a village cadre, it is natural to set an example and to have as few children as possible if possible.

It just so happened that the town’s family planning department sent “planning supplies” to the production brigade every month, and it happened that the second brother was in charge of these things.

In addition, in that era, everyone was relatively conservative, so these things were usually discussed behind closed doors, and few people openly discussed you outside.

 The second sister-in-law is a big boss, and she is a sworn enemy of the women's director. She never attended a single class, and ended up using it in a muddle-headed way for several years.

 Finally, the moment when you know the truth.

 The second sister-in-law chased her second brother for hundreds of meters because she thought she was unable to have a baby, and in the end she clamored for a divorce to live on her own.

Every time he thinks of this incident, Li Duoyu can't help but want to laugh.

Seeing that his father and mother were both there, Li Duoyu said quickly: "In a few days, the research institute will transport oyster seedlings over. There are 80 acres of them. By then, we will probably have to ask relatives to help."

Li Zhengtian stood up from the rocking chair on the spot: "80 acres, so much?"

After Zhu Xiuhua heard this, her ears immediately stood up. She had already half-entered the door, but then she stepped back.

“Duoyu, you have so many acres of oyster fields, can you give your brother a few acres?”

Lao Li and Chen Huiying frowned on the spot. The daughter-in-law here is very shameless. How can she still have the nerve to say such a thing when the family is divided.

Li Duoyu smiled and said, "Okay, one hundred yuan per acre, as many acres as you want."

Zhu Xiuhua was stunned. Why did this brother-in-law only have money in his head? Didn't what she just said not clear enough?

  cents, not buying!

 As soon as the words "Keduoyu" came out, Zhu Xiuhua was embarrassed to mention it again. He wanted to give up just like that, but he made so much money raising kelp.

Zhu Xiuhua felt that the oysters might make money this time, so she gritted her teeth and said, "Can you make it cheaper? How about selling us a few acres for fifty yuan."

"That won't work. I have to stick to this price. Because you are one of my own, I will give you 100 yuan per acre. If it were to be replaced by someone else, it would be at least 150 yuan."

Seeing Li Duoyu's determined look, Zhu Xiuhua frowned and said, "I have to discuss this price with your brother."

When Zhu Xiuhua returned to the room, her face turned black with anger. When she saw Li Yaoguo pretending to be a dead fish, he lifted the quilt on the spot.

 “It’s so hot, why don’t you cover yourself with a quilt.”

After finishing speaking, he stretched out the thumb and index finger of his right hand and aimed at his waist to twist it.

Li Yaoguo, sensing the danger, jumped up on the spot and used a pillow to block her hand.

 “If you have something to say, please say it nicely and don’t mess around, okay?”

Zhu Xiuhua sat on the edge of the bed a little aggrieved: "Yaoguo, do you think it's too unkind to have so many fish? We have helped him so much in the past six months. I want to ask him for a few acres of oyster fields. It's not too much." Li Yaoguo said with a bitter smile. : "Every time we help him, are we given money, and a lot of it?"

"Um."

"That's right. We are working for him, so we can't call him help."

Zhu Xiuhua choked for a while, then continued: "But if it weren't for relatives like us, how would he be able to do that kelp business?"

Li Yaoguo was speechless. Once a woman gets into trouble, she really can't hold her back.

"If every relative is like you and does something for him, just ask him to share a few acres of oyster fields, and he won't have to do it."

 “You and him are brothers, different from each other.”

“We are brothers, so we have to settle accounts openly. Isn’t that what you told your eldest brother at the beginning?”

 After mentioning her eldest brother, Zhu Xiuhua’s face darkened instantly.

“How long ago did this happen? You still want to explain it to me. Li Yaoguo, please make it clear to me. Did you not want to think about it?”

 After hearing the two people shouting loudly.

Little chubby Li Haoran came out of the room with his homework book. When he saw Li Duoyu, he shook his head helplessly.

 “Alas, here we go again.”

  "I'll call you Mom and Dad, and I'll give you another baby. I guess I won't have time to quarrel."

Li Haoran sighed: "Forget it, maybe I will be the one washing diapers by then."

 “You boy.”

Li Duoyu touched his head and said, "It's a holiday tomorrow. Don't run around. Remember to come back at noon. I'll treat you to something delicious."

 “Really, what to eat?”

 “When the time comes, you will know when you come back.”

 “It’s over, I won’t be able to sleep tonight.”

 The next day, it was just dawn.

Li Duoyu carried two loads of oysters hanging on the boat home.

Lao Li, who was about to go out, was surprised when he saw the big oyster in Li Duoyu's hand, so he picked it up and looked at it.

 “Where did you get these oysters?”

“Chief Zhang from the research institute gave it to me. By the way, Dad, I made oysters for lunch. Remember to come back and eat them together?”

"Um."

But Lao Li looked at the oyster in Li Duoyu's hand and became confused: "Wait a minute, give me one to try first. Is there any difference between this oyster and the one I raised?"

Li Haoran, who had just gotten up, didn’t know what it was, so he shouted:

 “Uncle, I want one too.”

 Chen Huiying, who was carrying a pole and was about to go out, urged: "The tide is almost rising, let's go out first and come back for lunch."

 Lao Li said firmly: "What do you know?"

Seeing Lao Li standing up, Chen Huiying didn't want to quarrel with him, so she picked up a pole and headed to the oyster field.

 Lao Li looked at Li Duoyu's two oysters, his brows almost knitted together. He had been raising these oysters for eight years combined, but he had never seen such good quality.

This is a bit difficult for Lao Li to accept. In the past, people on the island always praised him for raising the best oysters on the island.

There are also several shops in the town, and their oysters are purchased regularly every week.

 Over time,

 He regarded himself as a professional oyster farmer on the island and often guided the villagers.

 But after seeing this oyster today, Lao Li suddenly realized that the oysters he raised were just a piece of shit.

The size is more than twice smaller than others, and the color is not as good-looking as others. The most important thing is that these oysters are very clear.

It’s not like the ones he raised, each one has various shapes and is covered with barnacles.

Seeing how anxious his father was, Li Duoyu knocked a few times with his knife: "I was just about to tell him that it can be eaten raw or steamed."

  Unexpectedly, his father skillfully pried open the oysters, sucked up the soup and oyster meat inside on the spot.

This operation made Li Haoran on the side dumbfounded. Although he is a foodie, he really does not have the courage.

After Lao Li finished eating, he frowned and thought about it, and then sighed: "The research institute is still so good. We will only raise this kind of breed in the future?"

 “Yeah.” Li Duoyu nodded.

Li Haoran saw that his grandpa didn't seem to have any trouble after eating, so he also took a knife and wanted to pry open the oysters and eat them.

Li Duoyu on the side quickly stopped him and said:

 “If you eat it, you will have diarrhea.”
