Chapter 331
At dusk
Li Fushou came to Nuanxiang Pavilion, which is an exquisite small courtyard. Mrs. Xiang’s residence in Hongbao is not large in scale but has a unique world.
"Dad, Dad..."
As soon as he arrived at the gate of the yard, the four-year-old girl with a braid ran over, with her short legs tumbling quite quickly, and she stretched out her hand to hug her from afar.
This is Li Fushou's daughter Xiao Cherry, whose English name is Elizabeth. She was born in Earl's Castle in Queensland outside London. She had just returned to Australia with her mother, Mrs. Xiang for less than half a year.
The little guy is very clingy, especially his father Li Fushou.
"Don't run so fast, be careful of falling."
Li Fushou showed a loving smile on his face, and hurriedly walked a few steps to hug the child. The little girl, who was carved with jade, reached out and ran all the way. She had lost her balance when she came close and was about to fall to her horse.
"Oh...beware..."
Li Fushou suddenly rushed up and hugged the little cherry when it was about to fall to the ground.
Little Cherry was temporarily confused. Before she realized what was going on, she was already picked up by her father's powerful arms, and immediately "giggled" happily.
"Hihehe... Come again... Daddy..." Xiao Cherry shouted excitedly, and it seemed that she wanted to do it again.
Li Fushou threw the child in the air twice, making Xiao Cherry laugh happily, and the silver bell-like laughter filled the courtyard.
Mrs. Xiang greeted her with her maid, watched the father and daughter play and said with a smile, "Little Cherry should not always bother Dad. Daddy has been very tired after working hard for a day, so give him a rest."
"Dad, are you tired?" Xiao Cherry asked with her big, dark and lively eyes and a serious expression.
"Dad and Xiao Cherry are not tired at all."
"Oh... Dad said he was not tired." Little Cherry cheered happily, holding his two little fists.
Li Fushou walked into the courtyard with his child talking and laughing. At this moment, the golden sunset filled the courtyard, the flowers in the nursery were blooming brightly, and the breeze in the evening came, and a comfortable homely scene.
Xiao Cherry is the oldest daughter of a concubine. She is 4 years old this year and can say almost anything, but she sticks to Li Fushou and refuses to come down.
When he came to the room to sit down, Li Fushou hugged Xiao Cherry on his lap and turned to Mrs. Xiang and said, "Xiang'er, Xiao Cherry is now at the age of enlightenment. In the future, other children will have to study when they grow up. I intend to set up a school in Hongbao, which will be placed in the IELTS Garden near the gate, open a separate door, and hire a teacher from Gao Dexun, so that some close ministers and important members can attend together. What do you think?"
"The master's arrangements are always appropriate, please listen to the master's."
"Okay, this matter is settled. After everything is done, I will come and tell you."
"Master, do you want to buy some pens, ink, paper, inkstones and other things?"
"No need, can the Earl's Mansion be missing this little thing? There are so many things in the inner house treasury that you can get the butler Li Xi to bring someone to you one day. You don't have to worry about these things."
"Yeah, I get it."
Xiang'er is ranked second wife, but she is weak and gentle. She has always been a good temper who is not fighting or competing, and is very popular with the master.
In the hazy light of dusk, Xiang'er's beautiful young woman's face exuded a moving luster, and she looked so quiet when sitting on one side. She and Li Fushou were chatting casually and casually. The well-behaved little cherry sat on her father's lap, very sensible and did not make noise. She soon snuggled in her father's arms and fell asleep.
Warm days and peaceful times.
At night, the streets of Honghe Valley City are brightly lit and crowded.
Zhao Qishan, Mai Guangtian, Ma Limin and Lu Qiang came out of the small hotel and wandered along the street, preparing to find a place to have supper and buy some things for your family.
The port of Qingdao Town has just opened a small steamer. They came to Honghe Valley City on the small steamer this time, hoping to take advantage of the current wool price and buy some cattle and cubs for their respective ranches, further expand the scale of the herd and make more money.
These people followed Old Mike to open a private ranch in northern Queensland. Just as the price of wool was released, they made a lot of money in three consecutive wool shearing seasons, and their originally empty wallets instantly bulged.
The North Bank Market of Red River Valley City is Australia's leading cattle and sheep trading market. The population of more than 2 million in the surrounding six cities consumes nearly 6,000 cattle and sheep every day, and more than 100,000 chickens, ducks, geese, livestock and poultry, most of which come from this market.
There are also bulk cow and sheep trading, horses, camels, pigs, and all kinds of wild game. You can even find retired war horses here, which is an extremely lively market.
The four of them walked along the street. The stalls and shops on the roadside were very lively at night, teahouses and restaurants, theaters and walks, and the business was very hot.
"Qishan, it's been more than a year since we left here. The Red River Valley seems to be more crowded and busier, and the city is bigger and cleaner. The changes are really not small!"
"Jijigugu so much nonsense, just say that you are more beautiful, don't you have to slap it?"
"Hehe... I think it's better to be in the city, with people coming and going, and people are popular, and these women wearing cheongsams are very beautiful. Unlike our ranch, we can't hit people even if we throw a stick. Except for our wife, children and a few hired workers, there are no other people who can talk. It's too deserted."
"Guangtian, you can sell the ranch and move it back at any time. I guess there are a lot of people rushing to spend a lot of money to buy it." Zhao Qishan suddenly stopped when he said this, turned around and looked at Mai Guangtian carefully, and said suddenly. "I'll put a grass, you guys are not so colorful, right? I'll tell you Guangtian, Jenny treats you well, gave birth to a fat son for you, and now you're pregnant again. Don't mess with me. Just look at these beautiful ladies on the street. I'll just live a peaceful life when I dare to do anything. If I do, I'll fix you."
"No...how can it be?" Mai Guangtian's scalp was numb when his brother-in-law stared at him and he smiled awkwardly.
Zhao Qishan and Mai Guangtian both married the daughter of old Mike and entered Christianity. The ranches of the three families are closely connected, and even the residences are next to each other, at the junction of the ranches of the three families.
Zhao Qishan is the best in the nearby ranch, both in his personal force and prestige. The cowboys in the ranch were obsessed with him, and Mai Guangtian was also a little angry when he really started to get angry.
"Guangtian, now I regret entering Christianity. Look at me, I married two women. After buying all the cattle and sheep, Brother Limin and I went to the media company to take a look. There is a suitable girl, marry another one, and go back to give birth to a lot of cubs for me. Hahaha... I can't envy you?" Lu Qiang played the role of a bad friend very well, and ran Mai Guangtian with words while walking.
Ma Liming was not a good thing either. Youran sighed and patted Mai Guangtian on the shoulder and said, "It's good for foreign women. This foreign church is too troublesome. I have to go to the week and I can only marry one wife. To be honest, I can't help you anymore. Anyway, if I make a lot of money, I have to marry my wife. Three or five are considered too few, and 10 or eight are not too many."
"You two bastards, stop talking, they are all not good things." Zhao Qishan looked at the two of them stirring up the flames next to him, making Mai Guangtian's face green, and he would not make a fuss.
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about it. Anyway, marry another little wife like a flower and go home to have fun secretly, and you just pretend that you didn't see it." Lu Qiang said with a smile.
"Yes, are we happy? We are blind people eating dumplings... We know that there is no need to show off in front of others. Anyway, I believe in Taoism of the ancestor of the Sanqing. He asked me to marry many wives and have many sons." Ma Limin vowed to do his bad friends to the end. Looking at Zhao Qishan with a dark face, he said more and more proudly. "At that time, I will let our son pursue your daughter. One can't do two, two can't do three or five. Anyway, you will marry your daughter. After a hundred years, your ranch will belong to my old Ma's house, hahahaha..."
When he was proud, Ma Limin couldn't help laughing, as if he had already obtained the ranch, so happy that he was not afraid of it.
Zhao Qishan was so angry that his nose was crooked. He couldn't help but raise his leg and kick him and scolded, "You bastard, go and have your dream of spring and autumn. Can my baby daughter marry your son? Don't even think about this beautiful thing."
"This is unforgivable for you, children and grandchildren will have their own blessings."
"Fart, stinky fart..."
Several people walked forward talking and laughing. When Lu Qiang saw a slogan in front of him, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Look at the slogan, "It is strictly forbidden to urinate anywhere, and violators will be punished." Is this true that he has nothing to do when he is full and has nothing to do? He can control the heaven and earth, and he can still control the people's shit and fart?"
"What's the big fuss about this? Do you think the Red River Valley is the one-and-three-point land you have there, and you can pull whatever you want?"
"Yes, this is a big city. Hundreds of thousands of people are sucking shit on the streets together. Then the whole city is smelly. No matter how it works?"
"This guy Lu Qiang is a rare and strange guy, a country bun."
"Not knowing."
"Silly Bird."
Several people happily took advantage of the situation, and made Lu Qiang speechless. They could raise their hands to beg for forgiveness and said, "Masters, can't I be wrong? Please show more mercy!"
"Don't even think about it, idiot."
"Yes, I feel embarrassed when I walk with you. The unsightly rural buns are covered in dirty smells of cow shit."
"Guys, after hearing what you said, I feel that I am a little higher than Lu Qiang. How did this fool get into our team? I'm ashamed to join us!"
Seeing that the three bad friends were getting more and more excited, Lu Qiang knew that they could not block their mouths, so he could only use the method of hiding the world and transferring the world. He pointed to the front excitedly as if he had discovered a new continent and said, "Brothers, look at a restaurant there, let's go in and take a look?"
The other three sighed and rolled their eyes. The streets were full of restaurants and restaurants, so what's so strange about it?
