Sophisticated people?

Li Qingshan couldn't help but want to scold his mother, you old woman just followed Zhao Qiang and others to frame me, don't pretend that I am blind and didn't see it.

"Auntie, I, Li Qingshan, am still a single man without a wife!"

"Don't you have two daughters-in-law at home?"

"Let me have one of you tonight so that I can experience the addiction of being a man. Do you think that's okay?"

Li Qingshan stared at Aunt Mazi and said.

"Li Qingshan, what are you talking about, you idiot? How can my daughter-in-law sleep with you?"

Aunt Mazi suddenly became furious.

"Why should I give my pheasant to you?"

"Get out of the way!"

Li Qingshan's face was full of displeasure, and he rushed home with the wild animals in hand.

The villagers looked at the departing figures of Li Qingshan, Da Zhuang and others, their eyes filled with envy and jealousy. Why were they not so lucky?

"It's stolen, it must be stolen!"

"Don't look at how happy this kid is now. When someone else's prey comes to the door with government officials, they might drag this kid to be shot!"

Zhao Qiang got up from the ground, touched his painful body and said.

"Well, I think it was stolen too!" Zhao Youtian, Li Laotun's sworn enemy, also confirmed.

“It’s best for the government people to come quickly and arrest this second-rate guy and kill him. He actually wants my daughter-in-law to sleep with him?”

"Go ahead and dream!"

Aunt Mazi also cursed behind her.

"I was lucky this time. I just caught some prey. I still don't believe that he can kill so many times."

"Young man, you really can't hold your breath."

Zhao Youtian said sarcastically.

Lao Li's house!

It's dinner time now, and it's still the same table in the yard, with cornmeal pancakes on top, a plate of stir-fried vegetables, and half a salted duck egg...!

Below, there are sweet potato porridge and pickles...!

Li Laotun stretched out his chopsticks, first dug out some salted duck eggs, and put them in the bowl of his eldest grandson Li Qingshu. Then he picked some with chopsticks and put them in his own bowl. He licked the chopsticks and smacked his lips, with a look of enjoyment on his face.

The second and third eldest children in the family, as well as their respective mothers-in-law and granddaughter-in-law Liu Guixiang, could only hold the sweet potato porridge in their hands and look enviously at Li Laotun and others sitting on the chairs.

The second room was fine. Although they couldn't eat salted duck eggs and stir-fried vegetables, they could still eat a bite of corn pancakes. The third room was miserable. They could only drink sweet potato porridge and fart constantly throughout the day.

"Third uncle, have you been up the mountain for two or three days?" Li Qingshu suddenly asked at the dinner table.

"Including today, it's been three days!" Li Sankui nodded honestly.

"Third uncle, there are many dangers in the old forest. Let's put it bluntly. If Qingshan fails to come out of the old forest, you have to go find Li Hu and tell Li Hu that the new house does not belong to Li Qingshan, but is left to me by grandpa."

"The IOU left by Li Qingshan cannot be found on us."

Li Qingshu said.

The newly built house was what grandpa wanted to leave to him. How could he give it to Li Hu just because of a word from that boy Li Qingshan?

"Qingshu is right!"

"Third brother, did you hear that?"

Li Sankui originally wanted to retort, but he never thought that Li Laotun would speak first and stared at Li Sankui to set the tone for the matter.

"I got it, Dad!"

Li Sankui had no choice but to nod in agreement.

"Li Qingshu, Qingshan will definitely come back safely." Liu Guixiang, who was sitting at the end of the table, gritted her teeth and retorted.

"Sister-in-law, it doesn't matter whether Li Qingshan can come back or not!"

"But Lao Linzi has eaten a lot of people over the years, and everyone knows it."

"Li Qingshan is a young boy who doesn't know anything. He just entered the old forest so recklessly. He is so courageous. It's strange that he came out."

Li Qingshan looked at Liu Guixiang unhappily and said.

"What does the old forest have to do with cannibalism of people and green mountains?"

"In recent years, many hunters have entered the old forest and come out. I believe Qingshan will definitely come back and he will definitely be able to catch prey."

Liu Guixiang said.

"Haha...!"

After Liu Guixiang finished speaking, Li Qingshu couldn't help laughing, and said sarcastically: "He is a newcomer going up the mountain for the first time. It would be great if he can come back safely. He still thinks that he can catch prey. What a wishful thinking!"

"Guixiang, that second-rate guy Li Qingshan usually doesn't do his job properly. He is famous in the nearby villages. He is far different from Qingyou and Qingyu. If we could go to Zhao Carpenter's to learn a craft together, in two years we can start training together with Qingyou and Qingyu!"

"It's no problem for three brothers to open a workshop and support their families."

"Young people don't know how to keep their feet on the ground. They still want to imitate others and go hunting in the mountains. It's hard to come back this time. As for how to catch prey, don't even think about it. It also wastes a lot of cornmeal in our family."

"Let me see, even if this kid comes back, we can't let him eat on the table!"

"From now on, squat at the end of the table and wait until we finish eating before allowing him to eat. It will also teach him a lesson that a person should be down-to-earth, just like my Qingyou and Qingyu."

Just then.
