Chapter 330 Why is the gap between people so big?

"Grandma, I didn't say anything!" He Yuzhu said aggrievedly.

Looking at his aggrieved expression, Li Jiayi was very surprised. It was the first time he saw He Yuzhu like this.

However, it can also be seen from here that He Yuzhu has changed a lot after moving here.

Yes, he now has elderly people above him, a younger sister below him, and a wife in between. Of course, it is impossible for things to be the same as before.

However, sometimes when he got stubborn and got angry, he would say some mean things, but they were always suppressed by the old lady.

"Okay, let's talk about this later!" said the old lady.

"Okay! I'll listen to grandma." He Yuzhu said quickly.

He was really afraid that the old lady would hit him with her cane! It would really hurt, and he couldn't hide because he was afraid of hitting the old lady.

"Old lady, if that's the case, I'll go back first. I have to go back to the countryside tomorrow."

"Okay, go back and have a rest!" said the old lady with a smile.

To be honest, it can be said that the life she can live now is entirely because of Li Jiayi.

Although she still lived in the original place with a lot of people around her, it was not as good as it is now!

After Li Jiayi returned home, his eldest sister was cleaning the eight-immortals table, pouring out the tea leaves and wiping the table clean.

"Sister, I'm going up first. I have to go back home tomorrow."

"Well! Go ahead! Get some rest early."

"it is good."

Tomorrow is Sunday and no one in my family has to go to work. To be honest, we can avoid work on Sunday thanks to Li Jiayi.

You know, other people basically work in shifts or take turns on duty, but their families have never had that.

The same goes for the older sister who just started working. You know, the Public Security Bureau is very busy, and it is not easy to get a rest on Sunday.

Basically, everyone only takes a day off when there is nothing to do in the bureau. It is basically impossible to take a day off on Sunday.

When he came upstairs, Li Jiayi found that someone had been in the room. He knew without hesitation that it was his second sister.

Because some things were missing from his room, if his eldest sister came in, she would definitely not touch the things in his room.

That might be the reason why he brought fruit downstairs in the morning.

Li Jiayi smiled, didn't care, and went straight into the space.

After entering the space, Li Jiayi first went through his daily routine, then took a shower and then went to bed.

Silent all night.

He got up early the next morning, and he didn't do any boxing, he just took a shower and changed his clothes.

When he came down from upstairs, it was not yet six o'clock, and just as he came down, his mother also came out of the room.

No one in my family is working or going to school today, so my mother got up a little late.

I usually get up at 5:30, after all, it takes a lot of time to prepare so much breakfast.

"Hey, son, you got up a little early today?" Ye Xin asked when she saw Li Jiayi coming down.

"Mom, today is Sunday. I want to go back to my hometown."

"Oh! Yes, yes, yes, Mom forgot. You're not home for breakfast either, are you?"

"Yeah! I'll just have some breakfast outside later."

"Okay, remember to eat, don't forget."

"understood."

After coming out of the house, my mother went to the kitchen, while Li Jiayi drove out of the house on a tricycle.

He said he was going to have breakfast outside, but he didn't say he was going to a breakfast shop. The last time he ate at a breakfast shop, Li Jiayi had prepared some in the space.

To be honest, the food at the breakfast stall is really unpalatable, especially the fried dough sticks.

This era is not like later times, where the oil for frying dough sticks is changed when it is almost used up.

In this era, oil is not changed. At most, some oil is added when it gets low.

You can imagine what it looks like. If you look into the pot, you will find that the oil has turned black.

Li Jiayi drove his tricycle out of the city quickly. He stopped just after passing the road that was trampled by people and turned towards Gezishi.

Then he took out the buns and fried dough sticks from the space and started eating. Of course, how could he eat these things without soy milk.

After eating two big meat buns, two fried dough sticks and a glass of soy milk, he felt that he was almost full, so he started the tricycle again.

Two hours later, at around eight in the morning, Li Jiayi arrived at Lijia Village.

As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the village, he heard the sounds of pigs squealing one after another.

Needless to say, the village was slaughtering pigs, and more than one, otherwise it wouldn't sound so chaotic.

Not only that, he also saw that the villagers were busy, some were killing chickens and ducks, and some were helping to fetch water and carry firewood.

But this had nothing to do with Li Jiayi, he just came to collect things, so he drove to his grandmother's house.

When we arrived at grandma's house, the door was open. I guess grandpa and grandma got up very early today.

Li Jiayi drove the tricycle directly into the yard and saw his grandparents sitting in the yard.

"Grandma, grandpa!"

"Your eldest grandson is here. Are you tired?" the old lady hurried over and asked.

"Grandma, I'm not tired."

"Have you had breakfast?"

"Grandma, we've finished eating. You don't have to worry about anything else. Just sit down and have a rest!" Li Jiayi got off the tricycle and said while supporting his grandmother.

"Ok!"

When they came to the Eight Immortals Table, Grandpa handed Li Jiayi an enamel pot of tea and said, "We collected some eggs this week, but not many."

"It's okay grandpa, it's only been a week, not much, it's normal."

"Right."

"Oh, by the way, I forgot to take my things down." Li Jiayi said and stood up quickly.

"Why do you bring things here again, kid? We have everything we need at home now." Grandma said quickly.

"Grandma, I didn't bring any meat or food, but I brought some fruit for you and Grandpa."

"Fruit! That's fine."

Grandma was right. He didn't need to bring any meat or food here now.

Because he comes to collect things once a week, and he will definitely leave some for my grandparents.

There is also the issue of food. Now, each family cultivates their own land. Apart from the public grain that the village must submit, the rest belongs to them, so there is no shortage of food at all.

The only things Li Jiayi needed to bring were oil, sesame salt, and sesame paste.

But grandma still has a lot of these things at home, so there is no need to send them away for the time being.

Li Jiayi came to the tricycle and took out a large net bag from the compartment. The bag was filled with various fruits.

He put it in a net bag, which held about thirty or forty kilograms. There were a lot of fruits in the space!
This little bit of fruit is nothing compared to the piles of fruit in the space.

"Grandson, what kind of fruit is this?" After Li Jiayi put the net bag on the eight-immortals table, his grandfather touched a pomelo and asked.

"Grandpa, this is pomelo."

"I said oranges aren't that big!"

Grandpa looked at these fruits and didn't recognize many of them, so he asked about them one by one.

Not only did they ask what kind of fruit it was, they also asked how to eat it.

It wasn't until around ten in the morning that people started to arrive one after another.

Some come to sell slaughtered chickens and ducks, some come to sell pork, and of course, there are also people selling chicken and duck eggs.

Fortunately, my uncle and aunt also came at this time, and my uncle's family also slaughtered a pig today.

Now every household has surplus food, especially sweet potatoes, which are basically all used to feed pigs.

Nowadays, although not every household raises pigs, almost everyone does.

I was busy until after eleven o'clock, which was much faster than last time.

In fact, it is normal. It was after he came here last time that he asked the captain to notify people.

Today, everyone had already started before he arrived. I guess some people had already started when he came out of the city.

After finishing the work, Li Jiayi, his grandfather and his uncle loaded things onto the tricycle, while his grandmother and aunt went to the kitchen to cook.

Just as the loading was completed here, lunch was ready over there.

"Hurry up and wash your hands and eat." The old lady said as she came out of the kitchen with dishes.

While eating, my uncle said, "If you want to make money, you have to raise some animals."

"Yes! In the past, after working hard for a year, we could only get a dozen yuan in addition to some food," said the old lady.

In the past, it was a collective system. After the grain was harvested, it had to be paid as public grain first, and then the grain and money would be distributed according to work points.

After a year of hard work, all you get is just that little bit.

Now, the land is divided according to the number of people, and then you can grow the crops yourself. How much grain you can harvest depends entirely on how diligent you are.

There is simply no way to compare this. Although this is very unfriendly to those second-rate people, no one dares to say anything.

Unless you don't want to stay in this village anymore, this is the advantage of having the same surname. Although everyone lives their own lives, overall, they are still a family.

"Uncle, how many pigs do you have at home?" Li Jiayi asked.

"I still have two big ones, which I will sell later. I also have four small ones, which are still piglets at the moment."

Originally, my uncle's family only had three pigs, the same as for my grandmother's family, but after Li Jiayi came over to collect things last time, my uncle brought back four more piglets.

Grandpa glanced at my uncle and asked, "Are you planning to sell them all?"

"Uh! Dad, what's the matter?" asked the uncle.

"What else? They won't come back before the New Year! Why don't you kill one and keep it for food?"

"Dad, we don't need all of them! We can keep some for the New Year, and sell the rest."

"I think you are obsessed with money. Cheng Qian and Cheng Hou are both working and making money, but you are still short of that!"

"Well, Cheng Qian is almost at the age to get married, so it's good to save some money," said grandma.

"Yes! Grandpa, aren't you going to kill the pig? How can we not have meat during the New Year?"

"That's it." said grandma.

"Grandpa, you only need to keep one, which is enough for the New Year. You can sell the other two."

"What are you selling? You have a large family. I'll kill you and bring one back to the city when the time comes."

"Puff!" Li Jiayi looked at his grandfather speechlessly and said, "Grandpa, do you think our family will be short of meat? And it's not worth bringing it all the way to the city."

"Why is it not worth it? Don't you spend any money to buy others'?" Grandpa glared at Li Jiayi and asked.

"Uh! Grandpa, you're right. It really doesn't cost any money."

"No cost?" Grandpa turned his head and looked at Li Jiayi and asked.

"Yes, meat doesn't cost anything in our house, so there's no need to bring it from here to the city."

Are you kidding? There is no meat in his space! There is no need to bring meat back from grandpa's house.

And the meat in the space tastes better than the meat outside.

"In that case, next time you come, kill two and save one for the New Year."

"Ok!"

After finishing the meal, it was around half past twelve.

Li Jiayi wiped his mouth and said, "Grandpa and grandma, it's hot now, I won't stay any longer."

"Well! You should go back quickly! The meat will go bad if you wait too long."

"Yes."

"My eldest grandson! You are going back alone and carrying so many things. Please be careful on the road." said grandma.

"I understand, grandma. Don't worry."

In the past, Li Jiayi brought Asheng and the others here, but now there is no need for that.

Not to mention his own fighting power, don’t forget that he also has all the weapons of a large weapons store in his space!

Not only that, he always has two AK47s and two pistols with the safety on in the living room.

These four guns can be used at any time, and more than a dozen spare magazines are prepared.

If he really encounters danger, Li Jiayi will not care about so many things and will definitely use it directly.

The first thing to do is to ensure his own safety. As for the consequences, he doesn't care at all.

Li Jiayi is not such a pedantic person. Besides, the dangers that can occur basically occur in places where there are few people.

There is no danger on the street! So what is he afraid of?

Even if he used these weapons, he wouldn't let anyone know that it was him who used them!
After saying goodbye to his grandparents and uncle and aunt, Li Jiayi drove away on his tricycle.

When they were some distance away from the village, Li Jiayi stopped the tricycle, put away all the things in the car, and then started it again.

More than two hours later, Li Jiayi returned to the city and went straight to the district bureau.

"Uncle Wang, come out and collect the goods." When they arrived at the door of the district bureau cafeteria, Li Jiayi shouted inside.

"Here it comes." Uncle Wang soon came out with a big ladle.

"Why are you here so early today?" Uncle Wang asked as he walked towards the tricycle.

"I went early today. I left at around five in the morning and haven't returned until now."

In fact, at this time, the district bureau had just started work. Of course, this is during working hours.

Li Jiayi opened the lid of the carriage, and Uncle Wang came up to take a look and said quickly, "I'll call someone to move it over right away."

"Ok!"

Uncle Wang returned to the cafeteria and shouted, and soon everyone in the cafeteria ran out.

Then they started moving things in, and the first things they moved were of course chicken eggs and duck eggs.

There are no salted eggs or salted duck eggs today, only fresh eggs. Similarly, there are not many chicken eggs and duck eggs today.

All together, there are only about 4,000 pieces, which is actually quite a lot.

The amount of pork brought back today is about the same as last time, about 1,900 kilograms.

But there are more chickens and ducks today, especially chickens, about 150 or so, and this is with a few left for grandma.

There were even seventy or eighty ducks.

But whether it is a chicken or a duck, they are basically males, because the females are still retained for laying eggs.

Because there were so many people, they all moved in quickly. After counting and weighing, Uncle Wang gave Li Jiayi a ticket.

"Uncle Wang, thank you. I'll go get the money first."

"Get the money? I guess you can't get it today." Uncle Wang shook his head and said.

"Why?" Li Jiayi asked puzzledly.

"You kid, today is Sunday!" Uncle Wang said helplessly.

"No rest on Sunday."

"Add one! You are right, but this does not mean the main departments will have a break. Departments like finance, archives, and household registration will still have a normal break."

"Well, it seems I can only ask my eldest sister to pick it up for me when she goes to work tomorrow."

"That's the only way. Otherwise, you have to go there yourself."

"Uncle Wang, I'm going to school tomorrow."

"All right!"

Since he couldn’t get the money, Li Jiayi didn’t stay and drove his tricycle directly home.

When I got home, everyone in the family was in the living room except my eldest and second brothers.

Sundays in this era were truly a time of rest, unlike in later generations when people were busier than other times of the week.

Either go here or go there.

To put it bluntly, there is nowhere to go in this era.

Even if ordinary people want to go out shopping, there is nowhere to go. For example, to go to a department store, you need a ticket!
Why are you going shopping without a ticket? You might as well stay at home.

"Hey, son, why did you come back so early today?" Ye Xin asked when she saw Li Jiayi coming back.

"When I went there today, the village was almost ready, so I came back early."

"That's it!"

"By the way, son, how are your grandparents?"

"Very good! I feel healthy and everything I eat tastes delicious."

"That's good! Unfortunately, we only have one day to rest and there's no way for us to get over there." Ye Xin said helplessly.

"It's okay, Mom! It will be the eleventh in a while, you and Dad can go over and take a look."

"Yeah! It can only last until eleven."

Time passed quickly, and two months went by in the blink of an eye. During these two months, Li Jiayi returned to his hometown on time every Sunday to collect things.

It is now November, and the weather in the imperial capital has turned cold.

Even in later times, with global warming, the heating in the imperial capital was turned on around November 15th.

Not to mention this time.

The temperature in this era is several degrees lower than that in later generations. Although it is just November, I have already put on cotton clothes when going out.

It’s just that I’m not wearing thick cotton clothes. As for the temperature, it’s now between five degrees and minus five degrees.

Yes, the highest temperature during the day was only five degrees, and that was only at two or three in the afternoon.

The temperature is between -2 and -3 degrees Celsius in the morning and evening, and reaches -5 degrees Celsius at the coldest time of the night.

You know, it's only November now! In later times, it would probably be this cold in December at least.

In the past two months, Li Jiayi has cut off all transactions with the black market, including with Mr. Wu.

As for the reasons, there are many. In Li Jiayi's words, now that people's lives have basically recovered, they are no longer supplying him, so he is helpless.

The reason why the supply was cut off was that he no longer had any other way to get antiques and yellow croakers from the black market or Master Wu.

There were no antiques or yellow croakers, only transactions involving money, which no longer aroused Li Jiayi's desire.

It can be said that what he lacks least now is money.

So far, the only ones still supplying are the woolen mill, bakery, machine repair shop and district bureau.

As for the Shichahai Police Station, which was previously supplied, it was no longer supplied when the quota was restored.

Nothing happened at home in the past two months.

The only people who had changed were He Yushui and Nan Yi. More than a month ago, Li Jiayi introduced Qin Han to He Yushui, and then the two of them officially knew each other.

Now, every Sunday, the two of them would make plans to go out, and it seemed that there were basically no problems.

The same thing happened on Nan Yi's side. Perhaps because Cui Dake was no longer there to interfere, Nan Yi and Liang Ladi made rapid progress.

Now when she has nothing to do, she brings her children to eat at home. Since she only comes to eat and leaves after eating, no one in the courtyard will say anything.

As for how many times Liang Ladi came, probably no one knows it better than Li Jiayi, because every time Liang Ladi came, Nan Yi would come to him to borrow something.

For example, today, Li Jiayi just came back from school on his bicycle and saw Nan Yi at home.

"Uncle Nan." Li Jiayi did not forget to say hello when he stopped his bicycle.

"Jiayi is back. Uncle has something to ask you."

Li Jiayi parked his bicycle and walked over to say, "Uncle Nan, just tell me what you want to say."

"Help me get a chicken, a carp, and some pork and beef."

"Uh! Uncle Nan, are you going to treat us?" Li Jiayi asked in surprise.

Nan Yi also came to him to get things before, but each time it was either a chicken or a piece of meat. At most, he would ask for a fish when he asked for chicken or meat.

They want so many things today, this is not a treat.

"Oh! No, today is my child's birthday, so I want to prepare a few more dishes."

"Of course, Uncle Nan, she's a child now. Didn't you always call her Liang Ladi's child before?"

"Just kidding, huh?"

"No, no, but isn't it a little too little to prepare just these for a birthday?"

Nan Yi gave Li Jiayi a contemptuous look and said, "Do you think everyone is like your family? I have prepared so much, which is much better than many families."

What he said is true. How many families in this day and age would celebrate their children’s birthdays?

If the conditions are good today, people will cook a bowl of longevity noodles for their children and put two poached eggs on it.

For families with poor financial conditions, boiling an egg for a child is considered celebrating his or her birthday. Many families don’t even have eggs.

"Okay, do you want to wait here? Or should I send it to you later?" Li Jiayi asked with a nod.

"I'll go back and prepare first! You can bring the things back later and send them to me."

"can."

It doesn’t matter. There’s nothing I can’t agree to. I just don’t know which child of Liang Ladi’s has a birthday.

"Mom and Dad, I'm going out for a while."

"Go!"

Li Aimin and Ye Xin already knew why Li Jiayi was going out, so of course they couldn't stop him!
"Yeah! I'll be back in a minute."

This time, Li Jiayi did not drive a tricycle, but rode a bicycle out.

Fortunately, it hasn’t snowed yet, otherwise the bike wouldn’t be able to be ridden.

If the snow is a little heavier, even the tricycle cannot be driven.

After riding his bike around outside for a while, Li Jiayi rode his bike into an alley.

When he came out of the alley, there was a chicken, a fish and two pieces of meat hanging on the handlebars of his bicycle.

These are what Nan Yi wanted. In addition to these, Li Jiayi also took out some vegetables and put them in a net bag.

At this season, there are basically no green vegetables in the imperial capital, and the only green vegetable is cabbage.

What Li Jiayi took out were all out-of-season vegetables at this time.

Not only that, Li Jiayi also took out two not very big cakes from the space.

Yes, it was a cake, and it was a cake he made himself.

When zero-dollar shopping was popular in the United States, several large shopping malls had cake shops.

So there are a lot of raw materials involved, and when Li Jiayi was in college, he worked in a cake shop during his winter and summer vacations.

There is no problem at all with baking a cake as long as it is not too fancy.

I made a few of them when I had nothing to do before, and I didn’t expect they would come in handy now.

The reason I took out two was that one was to give to Nan Yi, and the other one was of course to take home and eat!
Li Jiayi provided boxes for both cakes, so he tied them to the back seat of his bicycle.

It took almost an hour in total, and Li Jiayi hurried home.

Fortunately, they were relatively close, and it only took five or six minutes for Li Jiayi to return to the yard.

When people in the yard saw the things hanging on the handlebars of Li Jiayi's bicycle, no one said anything.

The first is that they can’t afford to offend Li Jiayi.

Secondly, it's a habit. Li Jiayi often brings some things back, and what he brought today is considered a small amount.

But so what? Li Jiayi has already started making money even before he graduated. Not only does he earn a salary, he also makes money by translating materials for factories while he is still at school.

In other words, they are not short of money at all. If they are not short of money, it is not normal for them to go to Pigeon City to buy some things.

If it were me, I would probably feel the same way.

It's a pity that I'm short of money! I only get so much salary a month. After buying a certain amount of food and deducting the expenses of the family, I can't save any money at all.

"Ga-One is back?"

When I passed by the central courtyard, I happened to meet Aunt Xu coming out of the house.

Seeing Jiayi, Aunt Xu quickly greeted him.

You should know that their family’s current life is basically due to the help of Li Jiayi.

I don't know how much help he has given overtly and covertly over the years. Not only that, he also helped his son get a job.

It was a clerk job, which changed her family's life instantly.

"Yes, Aunt Xu, have you finished your meal?"

"I haven't eaten it yet, but it will be ready soon."

"Well! Then I'll go back first."

"Okay, go home now! I guess it's almost time for dinner at your house."

"Yes."

Li Jiayi pushed his bicycle to the backyard and went straight to the door of Nan Yi's house.

"Uncle Nan." Li Jiayi shouted into the house.

The door opened quickly, and the person who opened it was not Nan Yi, but Liang Ladi.

"Gain One is here?"

Because Liang Ladi had been here several times, she was familiar with Li Jiayi.

"Aunt Liang."

Li Jiayi shouted first, then said: "These are what Uncle Nan wants, I brought them here."

"Yeah! Thank you plus one."

"You're welcome."

Li Jiayi first handed over the ingredients, then tied up the bicycle and untied the cake tied at the back.

One of them said, "Aunt Liang, I don't know whose birthday it is, and I don't have anything to prepare. This cake is my gift."

"Ah! How can this be? You should take Jiayi back!" Liang Ladi said quickly.

"Take it, Aunt Liang. I have another one here."

"This……"

"Okay Aunt Liang, Uncle Nan wouldn't be polite to me if it was me."

Hearing Li Jiayi say this, Liang Ladi took the cake and said, "Thank you, Jiayi."

"You're welcome. I'll go back first."

"Well! Go back quickly!"

Li Jiayi carried the cake and pushed his bicycle towards home.

After seeing Li Jiayi leave, Liang Ladi turned around and went into the house.

When Li Jiayi returned home, it was almost time for dinner.

"Brother, is this the cake from the movie?" When the second sister saw what he was carrying, she hurried over to take it and asked.

Of course, this kind of thing won’t appear in domestic movies, but cinemas don’t just show domestic movies, they also show some Russian movies.

This cake appeared in the Russian movies, so Li Jialin asked this question.

"Second sister, you are right. This is the cake."

"Brother, you are really capable! You can even get a cake. Next time it's my birthday, you must prepare one for me."

"I say, second sister, are you stupid? Your birthday is my birthday, isn't it? Do you need to tell me that?"

"Huh!" Li Jialin was stunned for a moment. It's true!

Yes, although Li Jiayi knew that his birthday was one day later than Li Jialin, he still celebrated his birthday on the same day as his second sister.

It’s just a birthday, what does it matter if it’s a day earlier or later?

Just at this moment, Liao Qingxue ran in from outside, and after coming in, she stared at the cake in Li Jialin's hand.

Needless to say, it was probably because this little girl saw Li Jiayi giving Liang Ladi the cake just now.

He also heard the conversation between him and Liang Ladi and knew that it was a cake.

You should know that the west wing where Nan Yi lives is very close to Nan Yi’s house!
What's more, the two people were talking at the door, it would be strange if I couldn't hear it.

"Hey, Qingxue, why are you here?" Li Jialin asked hurriedly when she saw the little girl.

"Sister Jialin, is that a cake you're holding?"

"Yes! Your brother Jiayi just brought it back."

"Then can Qingxue eat it?" Liao Qingxue asked while biting her finger.

This girl is not even three years old yet, which is the age when she loves to eat.

In the past, I often came to Li Jia's house for meals, and now it goes without saying that I come here almost every few days.

"Qingxue, of course you can eat it, but you have to wait until after dinner to eat the cake. Qingxue, do you want to stay for dinner?" Li Jialin asked.

"Yeah! Qingxue wants to stay for dinner."

"Okay, wait until I put the cake down and I'll take you to wash your hands." Li Jialin said, touching the little girl's head.

No one would say anything about Liao Qingxue coming to their house to eat for free. After all, this girl is just a child.

Li Jiayi's family all like children very much. When Liao Qingxue stays at his house, there is a lot more laughter.

"Brother Jiayi, give me a hug." When Li Jialin went to put the cake away, the little girl reached out her hand to Li Jiayi.

"Okay! Do you want Brother Jiayi to help you wash your hands?" Li Jiayi asked, tapping the tip of the little girl's nose.

"No, I want to take a shower with Sister Jialin."

"OK then!"

Soon Li Jialin put down the cake and walked over, taking the little girl from Li Jiayi.

"Come on, sister will take you to wash your hands."

"Ok!"

"Brother, you should get married soon! Once you have a child, your home will be more lively." Li Chenghou suddenly said at this time.

Not only did his words make Li Chengqian stunned for a moment, but even Li Jiayi almost turned his head to look at him.

I don't understand why he would say this.

"Get out of the way." Li Chengqian kicked him and cursed.

"I didn't say anything wrong." Li Chenghou muttered aggrievedly.

In fact, Li Chengqian’s marriage has already been put on the table. Now they just have to wait until he reaches the age requirement before they can get married.

Because the betrothal gifts and other things have already been given, and the marriage has been arranged.

Although all the necessary procedures have been completed, I still have to wait a few months before getting married.

At this time, Li Jiayi looked at Li Cheng and said, "Second brother, it's almost time for you. It will probably be your turn to get engaged next year."

Li Chenghou curled his lips and said, "I'm only seventeen. Even if we're engaged, we'll have to be nineteen! How can it be next year?"

"Who says you can't get engaged at 18? As long as you don't get married, you can get engaged at any age."

"Uh!" After hearing what Li Jiayi said, Li Cheng was stunned for a moment and said, "I don't even have a partner, why would I get engaged?"

Li Jiayi spread his hands and said, "Is there no one you can introduce me to? I'll tell my mom later and ask her to ask a matchmaker to tell her."

"No! Brother, you are my brother, please don't do this." Li Chenghou said begging for mercy.

"What's wrong, second brother? I was just introducing you to someone. Look how scared you are."

Li Chenghou said with a sad face: "But I don't want to get married so early! I'm still a child if I get married at the age of 20!"

"You're a twenty-year-old kid, but you really haven't grown up yet." Li Chengqian said.

"What's wrong with a 20-year-old kid? It's not like there aren't any." Li Chenghou rolled his eyes at his eldest brother and said.

Li Jiayi scratched his head at this time, looked at Li Cheng and said: "Second brother, if you are a child, then I am a baby."

"Puff!" Li Chenghou almost choked on his saliva and said, "You, and you're still a baby. Whose baby is this big?"

"My home! Besides, I'm only one year and one hundred and seventy-two months old. How can I not be a baby?"

"A baby who is one year and one hundred and seventy-two months old?" The second sister came in after helping Liao Qingxue wash her hands and heard Li Jiayi's words, and then she said this.

Li Jiayi is now fifteen years and four months old, and fourteen years and four months is exactly one hundred and seventy-two months.

Li Jiayi turned around and looked at his second sister and asked, "What's the matter? Is there a problem?"

"No, no problem. But if you calculate it this way, then wouldn't I be the same as you?"

Li Jiayi curled his lips and said, "Second sister, we are different. I am one year and one hundred and seventy-two months old, and you are fifteen years and four months old. How can we be the same?"

"So you're the baby and I'm the adult, right?"

"Yes! You are my elder sister! You can't be younger than me!"

Just at this moment Ye Xin came in with food, and Li Jialin hurried over and said, "Mom, my brother said he is still a baby."

"Kid, what nonsense are you talking about? Your brother is already fifteen, how can he still be a baby?" Ye Xin put the dishes on the table and tapped Li Jialin's forehead.

"Mom, this is not what I said, but what my brother said himself."

"How is that possible? How could your brother say that? I think you said it yourself." Ye Xin obviously didn't believe that her son would say that.

"Mom, what I said is true. My brother said he is one year and one hundred and seventy-two months old."

"Pfft!" Ye Xin was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Li Jiayi, gave him a thumbs up and said, "Son, there's nothing wrong with what you said."

Ye Xin's reaction hurt Li Jialin very much, it was too obvious!
If she said this, it would be nonsense, but if her brother said it, there would be nothing wrong with it.

Why is there such a big gap between people?

"Mom, you..."

Before Li Jialin could finish her words, Ye Xin interrupted her and said, "Okay, go and help serve the dishes. Do you want to eat or not?"

"Eat, I'll eat." Li Jialin said doubting her life.

"If you want to eat, go and serve it."

"Oh!"

Seeing his second sister serving the dishes, the eldest brother Li Chengqian hurriedly took a few cups to the side room to get some wine.

The family had a clear division of labor and soon the meal was placed on the eight-immortal table.

Of course, wine and juice are also indispensable!

"Come here Qingxue, come here to auntie, I will feed you." Seeing Liao Qingxue sticking to her son, Ye Xin said hurriedly.

"Yeah!" The little girl nodded and ran over quickly.

She picked up the little girl and gave her a piece of pork ribs. Then Ye Xin looked at Li Chengqian and asked, "Is it cold living in that room with Chenghou?"

"Aunt, it's not cold now."

"Well! Tell me when it's cold, and I'll bring two more quilts over then."

"Okay aunt."

"Oh, by the way, let's move the stove over and install it, and then bring some coal over so we can start burning anytime."

"Yeah! I understand."

Of course, the stove was prepared by Li Jiayi, and it had been ready a long time ago, but it had not been moved there yet.

The meal took more than half an hour, and everyone was full. The eldest sister Li Jiaqi made a pot of tea before starting to clear the table.

Then the whole family sat around the octagonal table and drank tea.

At this moment, Li Jialin hurried over, took the cake, and opened it.

Since no one was having a birthday, we just cut it in half and gave everyone a piece.

Fortunately, the cake is not big, otherwise I would not be able to finish it, after all, I just finished dinner.

"What time is it, girl? Why haven't you gone home yet?" Liao Kai's voice came from outside the door.

Soon Liao Kai also came into the room.

"Uncle Liao, you're late. We just finished the cake." Li Jialin said jokingly.

"Dad." The little girl ran over quickly.

As soon as he saw the girl's bulging belly, Liao Kai knew that she had eaten a lot.

"Girl, it's not like there's no food at home."

"eat cake."

Hearing what the little girl said, Liao Kai understood why the girl came over.

When Li Jiayi was talking to Liang Ladi, Liao Kai also heard it.

"You are the only one who is greedy." Liao Kai tapped the little girl on the head and said.

"Xiao Kai, now that you are here, sit down and have some tea."

"Okay, Brother Li."

When Liao Kai heard about drinking tea, he did not refuse, because the Li Jia family drank good tea! It was impossible to drink it outside.

By the time Liao Kai sat down with the little girl in his arms, the eldest sister had already poured him the tea and handed it to him.

"Thank you Jiaqi."

"Uncle Liao, you're welcome."

Liao Kai took a sip and put down the quilt, then looked at Ye Xin and asked, "Sister-in-law, you are quite familiar with Director Xu. Have you heard from Director Xu when the winter vegetable storage will start?"
