Siheyuan: Big City, Small Love

Chapter 301 5 pounds

After getting off work, He Lai rode towards the machine repair factory. On the way, he was thinking about whether he should just go directly to the machine repair factory to satisfy his craving for a big wild boar.

If they can be so excited about a domestic pig weighing more than 200 pounds, what will happen if I bring a wild boar weighing 400 pounds?

Seeing that there were still more than twenty in the space, he simply picked out a slightly smaller one, shot it in the head with a pistol, and tied it to the bicycle.

When He Lai appeared at the gate of the machine repair factory with the wild boar, the security guards at the gate were stunned!

Unfortunately, the factory leaders had all gone off work, so He Lai asked someone to call the canteen staff to come and clean up the wild boar.

He Lai put the wild boar on the ground and went to Liang Ladi's house.

Xiu'er was playing on the ground, and when she saw He Lai pushing a bicycle over, she immediately ran over.

"uncle."

"Xiu'er, you have a good eye. Do you want to ride on uncle's bicycle?"

"it is good."

He Lai picked up Xiu'er and put her on the front bumper, then took her for a few laps.

Soon Liang Ladi came out and He Lai stopped in front of her.

"Sister Liang, I brought the pork. You didn't forget to cook for me, did you?"

He Lai pretended to stretch his hand towards the cloth bag and smiled.

"I...I...I haven't eaten yet. I'll make it now." Liang Ladi was embarrassed to say that she had eaten, so she had to wait for He Lai to bring the meat before she could have her meal.

He Lai took out a bag from the cloth bag, but it was not meat, but strawberries!

"Okay, go ahead and do it. Xiu'er and I will eat something first."

After saying that, He Lai took Xiu'er into Liang Ladi's house.

"Mom, haven't we already eaten? Besides, we don't have anything to cook at home. We have eaten all the cabbage." Damao asked after He Lai entered the house.

"I...I'll go borrow some from outside. Please help me ask him where the pork is."

Liang Ladi didn't expect that there was no pork in He Lai's bag, so she could only borrow vegetables from others.

At the dinner table, He Lai was holding Xiu'er and feeding her strawberries when Damao and a few others came over quietly.

"If you want to eat, take it yourself. Ask your mother to cook. I, your uncle, am hungry."

"Then uncle, where is your pork? I'll take it to Uncle Nan to cook it for you. He cooks delicious food."

Damao suddenly had an idea and asked about pork.

"It's pork. Your mother will get it later. We'll eat strawberries first. Do you want some?"

He Lai said with a smile.

Seeing that He Lai didn't say anything, Damao was at a loss. He looked at Ermao and Sanmao staring at the strawberries with their saliva almost dripping, so he had no choice but to pull the two of them to join the team eating strawberries.

Soon, most of the big bag of strawberries was eaten by the four little ones. Maybe because they had just finished their meal, they couldn’t eat any more.

"Let's go and look for your mother. Why has she been out for so long and not coming back?"

After He finished speaking, he carried Xiu'er out of the door. Seeing this, Damao and the others hurriedly followed.

He Lai soon discovered a large group of people gathered in the direction of the cafeteria. He squeezed in to take a look and saw that Nan Yi was leading people to deal with the wild boar.

"Uncle, mom is over there." Xier said, pointing in the direction of Liang Ladi.

"Okay, let's go over there." He said and squeezed towards Liang Ladi.

"Sister Liang, why are you here instead of going back to cook?" He Lai patted Liang Ladi's shoulder and said with a smile.

"Ah, He Lai, we're slaughtering pigs. I'll see if I can get some back to add to your dish." Liang Ladi smiled awkwardly. She was so fascinated by looking at the pigs that she forgot about He Lai at home.

“Sister Liang, you have your share of this pig, do you believe it?”

"Ah? Yes, there will definitely be a share for me." Liang Ladi thought that the pig weighed several hundred kilograms, so she would definitely get one kilogram.

He Lai didn't expose it. He looked around and didn't see Da Wa and Xiao Cao. They were probably still cleaning their rooms.

Soon, Factory Director Liu Feng also came over.

Director Liu looked around the crowd, saw He Lai, and immediately walked over.

"Congratulations..."

"Come inside and talk." He Lai quickly interrupted Director Liu.

"Okay, okay, come in." Director Liu immediately took He Lai to the office.

"Director Liu, give 50 kilograms of wild boar meat to Liang Ladi, 30 kilograms each to He Dawa and Wu Xiaocao, and sell the rest to the machine repair factory."

He Lai ordered.

"Okay, then what's the price?"

"The market price is fine! Give me more tickets for my two relatives. They just came from the countryside and don't have much stuff. Director Liu, please take care of them."

"Okay, okay, listen to Engineer He, I will definitely take good care of it." When Director Liu heard the market price, he was extremely happy. Now you can't buy pork even if you have a ticket!

He Lai saw that the discussion was over, so he opened the door and saw a group of people eavesdropping at the door. The one in front was Liang Ladi, who was holding Xiu'er and eavesdropping at the door.

"Sister Liang, you are so mean. I came here but you didn't even cook for me. I have to go back. I'll have to eat this meal next time."

He Lai smiled and left. There was no other way. If he didn't get home soon, it would probably be dark.

Liang Ladi wanted to keep He Lai, but she had no food to cook at home, so she could only watch He Lai leave.

The pork was soon ready. Liang Ladi was stunned for a moment when she saw the pork that Nan Yi brought over.

"What are you standing there for? Go ahead, you want me to carry it home for you!"

"For me?" Liang Ladi couldn't believe it. She took the rope from Nan Yi's hand and almost dropped the pork on the ground. It was too heavy.

"It's not for you or anyone else. They said they would give you 50 kilograms, your apprentice 30 kilograms, and Wu Xiaocao 30 kilograms."

After Nan Yi finished speaking, he went back to lie down. There was so much meat but he didn’t have any share. Fortunately, he was a cook, so he could have a bite tomorrow!

Liang Ladi understood now that this was the pork He Lai sent her. She didn't expect that she wanted ten kilograms, and he increased the price fivefold! But what did she do? He clearly said he would come today, and she didn't even treat him to a meal.

"Mom, we have pork at home." Damao helped Liang Ladi carry the meat and said happily.

The other three little ones also came forward to carry the meat, fearing that it would fall to the ground and get dirty.

Normally I don’t even have a piece of pork to eat, but now I have a big piece of pork at home!

Liang Ladi looked at the look in the eyes of her neighbors and quickly carried the pork in. She was so envied.

After Liang Ladi processed the pork, she sat in a chair in a daze, not understanding what He Lai meant.

There is so much pork that it is not worth it even if I sell it. There is no pork in the market now. I can only taste meat occasionally in the factory.

Now, I’ve gained 50 kilograms, enough for me to eat for several years!

"Mom, strawberries are delicious." Xiu'er handed a strawberry to Liang Ladi.

"Xiu'er, you eat. You eat. Mother won't eat."

"Mom, you eat it. We have all eaten. Uncle has brought a lot."

"Oh, okay, mom will eat it." Liang Ladi took a bite of the strawberry and instantly fell in love with this fruit. There was no way she could help it because it was so delicious.

After Liang Ladi coaxed the four little ones to sleep, she lay on the bed and thought about things.

Since her husband died, she has not enjoyed a single day of happiness and has been busy every day worrying about her children's food.

She had no other choice but to gradually humiliate herself, forcing herself to please men in order to get some food from them.

Gradually, I began to become frivolous and aggressive, turning myself into a bad woman in the eyes of others.

I have already decided to throw the jar into the air. It doesn't matter if my reputation is ruined. As long as I stick to the bottom line and can keep my children well fed, I'll be fine with anything.

The appearance of He Lai allowed Liang Ladi to stand up straight again. With this weight, she no longer had to work so hard to please men.

"He Lai, He Lai, even if you want my body now, I can give it to you."

Liang Ladi shed tears silently. She never wanted to become someone that even she hated.
