Fight the Giants

  The cold wind in winter is biting.

  Li Yu took a boat from Songjiang Prefecture to Ningbo Port. According to the address, I found a shanty town outside the city.

  Ningxiu was taking her son Dongsheng to send the washed clothes from door to door, and brought back the clothes from each house to wash.

  Mother and son are carrying three big bags of dirty clothes in furoshiki, Ningxiu is carrying one on her back and holding another on her chest, Dongsheng is also carrying a big bag.

  I couldn't see the road, and I walked staggeringly. From time to time, I put it on the ground to rest and pant for breath.

   "Put it on your back, so you can see the road. Otherwise, you stay here and watch, and mother will come back later to get it?"

   "Mom, I can handle it, I just walk slowly."

  Ningxiu looked at her son's face flushed from the cold, feeling a little distressed, "Okay, then go slowly."

After resting for a while, they helped their son put the big burden on his back. The mother and son moved again. Seeing that the son was bent over by the weight of the burden, he quietly carried it with his hands behind him. .

   "Mother, leave me alone if you go. Just follow along slowly, son."

   "Let's go, mother, go and watch from behind." Walk behind his son, protecting him all the way.

  As the saying goes, there is no light burden on Lu Yuan, Ningxiu just felt that she was about to be crushed by the burden on her back, and when she was about to put the burden on the ground for a rest, she suddenly felt that her back was much lighter. turn to look...

   "Steward Yu!" Surprised eyes revealed.

  Li Yu nodded and smiled at her, took the bundle from her arms, and reached out to pick up the bundle from Dongsheng's back.

  Dongsheng didn't recognize the man in front of him, he looked at him blankly, Ningxiu declined: "Let's memorize it."

   "Lead the way ahead."

   "Hey." Ningxiu thought that Manager Li Yu must come to open a shop when he arrived in Ningbo, so she and Hai Daddy would have a way out, so she was happy and told Dongsheng to lead the way.

   Dongsheng responded, striding ahead, turning around to look at Li Yu from time to time.

  Li Yu smiled, "Your son is smart and sensible. Is Zhong Quan's leg healed?"

   "Okay, okay, at home, I can walk two steps with crutches."

   Talking all the way, they soon arrived at the shanty yard where their family rented.

  Zhu Zhongquan was very excited when he saw Li Yu, and rushed out of the house regardless of his leg injury. His youngest daughter carefully supported him and looked at Li Yu curiously.

   After a conversation, I heard that Li Yu was going to visit the shop, and Zhu Zhongquan insisted on following him, but Li Yu stopped him: "Let's heal your wounds first, and only when you heal your wounds can you work better for the master."

  When it came to the owner’s house, the husband and wife looked at each other, and cautiously inquired: "Master Yu, um, that day, we saw that little master next to Mr. Li..." Is it Miss Ning?

   Li Yu glanced at his husband and wife and knew what they wanted to say.

  Just said: "Your eldest daughter is now by the side of the master. Only by doing things well can the family reunite. What should not be asked, what should not be said, will rot in the belly. The master's family is the most forbidden to betray the master."

   Having said that, what else do the husband and wife not understand?

  Nodding with a sob, Ningxiu even wiped her face, sighing in her heart that God opened her eyes. The husband and wife expressed their loyalty to Li Yuqi.

   "Don't worry, Manager Yu, there would be no us without the old owner. We all understand that in the future, we will definitely do a good job for the small owner and help take care of the Ningbo shop."

   Li Yu nodded. Hearing that Dongsheng was very familiar with Ningbo City and the wharf, he took Dongsheng to find a shop.

  After searching for a few days, I finally found a shop with a warehouse near the pier. I asked someone to decorate it, and hired a few assistants and accountants. The Ningbo shop opened in a low-key manner.

  Ningxiu resigned from the job of washing clothes for the oars, Zhu Zhongquan also dragged his unhealthy legs to the shop, and even his son Dongsheng went to the shop as a boy who ran errands and passed on the news.

  Because Zhu Zhongquan's family is very familiar with the wharf and knows some people in the local area, although the Ningbo shop was newly opened, it opened quickly, and the goods were shipped to Songjiang and Beijing in less than half a month.

  When Huo Xi received the news, he was very happy.

Discussed with Shen Qianzhong and Yang Fu, thinking about the last time I went to Ningbo and saw what goods were in the wharf there, and what the people of Zhejiang, Fujian and Fan needed desperately, I wrote back to Ningbo and prepared A shipment was sent over.

   A lot of velvet flowers, fans, storage boxes and other handicrafts were shipped, and all kinds of cloth were also sent there.

   I also thought that there are many shipbuilding workshops in Zhejiang and Fujian, so some shipbuilding materials must be needed, so I collected a lot of wood, bamboo, rattan, tung, oil, lacquer, etc., and sent them there.

   After being so busy, it is almost the end of the year.

  Huo Nian was on his annual leave, he was like a bird out of the cage, and disappeared the next day. Seeing that he and Bao Kang were only playing with his classmates near Qionghua Lane, Huo Xi didn't care too much.

   Now that Bao Kang has learned boxing and kicking skills, coupled with his great strength, no one can get close to him.

  At the beginning, the master who taught him martial arts was careless, treating him as a secondary school student, but later saw that he was really talented, and taught him seriously as a disciple. He was very attentive. If it wasn't for his lack of intelligence, he would have been recruited into the army.

  With him by Huo Nian's side, Huo Xi felt relieved that they would go to play.

  After playing so hard for two days, Huo Xi caught Huo Nian on the third day. Clean him up and take him to see Yu Jiang's new son.

  Yu Jiang finally got a son, and the full moon was a few days ago, so he can go to explore the workshop. Huo Xi took Huo Nian, Bao Kang and Grandpa Zou to see them. The two maids left them in the workshop.

  Now when Huo Xi doesn't need them to follow, they go to the workshop to get work and save up coins. Now the two of them have saved a lot of small money, and they will run there whenever they have time.

   I don’t know if there are slaves as long as there are masters. After following a master like her who only has eyes for money, the two maids also talk about saving money every day.

  At night, under the starlight, I never forget to work.

  A group of people arrived at Yu's house with gifts.

   Seeing them coming, the Yu family was very happy. Yu Miao called "Sister Xi'er, Sister Xi'er", and when she came up, she took her arm and dragged her into the house.

   "Sister Xi'er, come and see my brother. My brother looks really good!"

Yu Jiang looked blind, and shook his head at Grandpa Zou, Grandma Zou and others and laughed: "I have nothing to do with her mother, but this girl seems to be very happy, and she praises her brother whenever she meets. I am afraid that others will not know. generally."

  Everyone laughed.

   "Which girl's family doesn't want her natal family to have brothers? When they get married in the future, they still count on their natal brothers to support them." Aunt Zou smiled and glanced at Yu Ya after speaking.

  Yu Ya blushed and lowered her head. Now that her family situation is better and she lives in the city again, her temperament has also changed a lot, she looks like the daughter of a small family.

  Yu Ya was very happy with their arrival, greeted them affectionately, and made tea for their group.

  Huo Xi and Aunt Zou went into the room to see Mrs. Zheng.

   Mrs. Zheng has been looking forward to a son for so many years, so it goes without saying that she is very happy. Now that it's cold, I just hold my son and hide in the house. Seeing them coming, he hurriedly carried his son out to the hall, so that Grandpa Zou could also have a look.

  Everyone rushed to see the newborn in swaddling clothes.

   "Wow, sister, my brother is so small, his face is so small, his hands are so small, it's so fun!" Huo Nian almost glued his face to Xiaowa's, and felt that it was very novel.

  Zheng looked at Huo Nian with a smile.

  I feel that Huo Erhuai and the Yang family have raised Huo Nian well, and now that he is studying in the city, he looks like the son of a rich family. I thought to myself, when my son grows up, let him go to school too.

  Yu Jiang looked at it with a smile, and asked Huo Xi: "Your father brought a big basket of seafood over last time, saying that your mother's belly is also getting bigger. Are you going back to Zhuangzi for the New Year?"
