Chapter 162 A Kind Reminder

Chapter 162 a kind reminder

"Uncle, do you want these fish intestines?"

Although the two adults had formed a new family, the names of the children had not changed, which was also the request made by Li Tao and Duan Jinqiao after they agreed to their marriage. Naturally, both adults agreed.

Li Jianguo put the large pile into the bowl and nodded, "Well, these fish jerky are very delicious. You can eat fish bubbles, fish intestines, and fish seeds. There are so many fish today. Later on, these fish jerky can be cooked in a big pot."

"Then why did mom throw these things away when she used to buy fish?" Duan Jinqiao was puzzled.

Liu Fen smiled and said, "Mom doesn't eat fish. Mom thought you wouldn't eat fish either, so she threw them all away."

Duan Jinqiao solemnly expressed his opinion, "Mom, it's shameful to waste food."

Liu Fen blushed. Why didn't she realize that her daughter was too sensible before? She smiled and continued, "Okay, then don't throw it away. You, Uncle, like it. Cook it for him later. It won't be a waste."

"Hehe..." Li Haitang was amused by their mother and daughter's expressions. She shook the water and said, "Jinqiao, actually, the fish is quite good, but we have to deal with it well to remove the smell. In particular, this fish sauce is similar to eating pork belly, and the fish intestines taste very good. This dish is found in many hot pot side dishes."

"Sister hoi tong, have you ever eaten hotpot in a restaurant outside?" Duan Jinqiao squatted down and asked her with his chin in his hands.

"We ate in restaurants outside, and we often cooked hot pot in the house we rented outside the school. Eating hot pot is especially warm, especially when there are many people, eating hot pot is especially lively. Also, in fact, we'd better eat more mutton hotpot in winter. It's a special tonic, but mutton is rarely available." Li Haitang liked mutton very much. He had been here for almost three years and had only eaten it once at wang li's house.

"Mutton? Uncle and mom have lamb and radish stew at their wedding banquet." Duan Jinqiao remembered the last time he ate mutton.

Li Haitang's eyes lit up slightly, "Ah, dad, where did you buy the lamb?"

It's the butcher who sells meat in town. I'll go ask him again tomorrow to see if he can get some mutton and buy more for you to stew." Li Jianguo could tell that she liked mutton. Now that she said it was good, she would try to get some back every year.

"Yes, yes, lamb chops and the like. Bring them back to stew radish soup. Eating mutton in winter can warm up your stomach, replenish your qi and blood, nourish your liver, and eat a bowl of hot soup. You'll feel very warm when you go out in winter." Li Haitang's eyes lit up. It was so cold in the winter that his body was a little stiff. He needed hot soup urgently.

Li Jianguo nodded and cut a knife on both sides of the cut grass carp. Liu Fen, who was next to him, strung the fish up with a rope and hung it on the wire in the small yard to drain the water.

"Big brother, Taoer just asked for a pot. I sent it over. Is there anything good to cook tonight?" Li Jiangang strode in with his own pot and saw the four of them huddled together. He looked closer and said in surprise, "Why did you buy so many fish?"

Haitang said to make fish hotpot at night. There may be a lot of guests at home this new year. Prepare more dishes. If you can't finish them, you can smoke them and make them into cured fish. Then you can take them to the provincial capital." Li Jianguo washed his hands, stood up, took out his cigarette case and handed him a cigarette.

"Dad, you and uncle go to the side to smoke. I'll cut the fish." Li Haitang had already shaken several buckets of water, and she came over to sit on the small stool, picked up the kitchen knife on the ground and started working.

"Haitang, auntie fen, do the dissection. Just hang the fish for me." Liu Fen had just taken the pot from Li Jiangang's hand and sent it to the kitchen. Seeing that she had started working, he immediately came over.

"It's okay. I can cut the fish. It won't be slower than dad. Aunt Fen can help me." Li Haitang wiped the scales off the fish in a few strokes. After a few brushes, he cut the fish open, took out its internal organs, washed it, and handed it to her.

Duan Jinqiao watched from the side, then found a job for himself. "You cut the fish, then I'll wash the cabbage and spinach first."

"Okay. Jin qiao, wash some ginger, garlic, radish, coriander, lettuce and the like." Li Haitang turned his head and shouted at her back.

"No problem."

Li Jianguo brought a bench over. The two brothers sat in the yard, smoking and drinking tea while watching them cut fish and wash vegetables.

After smoking half a cigarette, Li Jianguo suddenly remembered something. "Jiangang, is Li Lan back?"

Li Jiangang shook his head, "No, I wrote once in the middle. The leather factory that Zhao Nan's friend introduced only lasted two months and left. He said that the environment in the factory was too bad. Then he went to find a plastic factory and only worked for a month. He disliked the bad food. Being picky, being light and afraid of being heavy, I don't know what qualifications and ability I have to be picky. The bigger I am, the worse I am.

After that, he followed zhao nan to some beauty and barber shop as an apprentice. The salary was very small, so he wrote to her mother to send her three hundred yuan. Hmph, he must be hanging out with a bunch of bad guys, messing around with money. Her mother didn't send her any money, so she asked ya' er to write back to her and tell her that she had wiped her ass. Everything in the house had been emptied and she had been cheated into owing her five thousand dollars. There was no letter from her after that. "

"Didn't you send a letter back for the new year?" Li Jianguo's brows furrowed, and this niece was probably going to follow Li Ting's path again.

"No." Li Jiangang flicked the cigarette ash irritably.

Li Jianguo took a deep breath and said, "Go to the zhao family for the spring festival and ask Zhao Nan about it. It would be a skill to learn beauty and haircut from there, and she would not be worried about starving to death in the future, but the point was that she must have made friends with a group of people with bad character and mind. It was okay not to earn money, as long as she didn't follow Li Ting's path. If you have any specific information, go to the south early next year and bring her back and tie her up to educate her so as not to get into bad habits."

Li Jiangang nodded seriously. That was exactly what he was thinking. He didn't need her to earn much money. He just had to behave himself and stop hurting himself and his family.

Second uncle, listen to dad. After the new year, go to the south and find her. The economy in the south was developing rapidly, making money easier than in the inner cities. Many hooligans and hooligans all over the country were running there, and the security there was not good. Li Lan probably followed those people. Li Ting is already a good example, and Li Lan is now at this age. If the same thing happened, it would be very difficult to get through psychologically. If you can't get out of a dead end like Li Ting and do extreme things, it would really hurt you and yourself."

Li Haitang stopped his work and carefully analyzed it with him. Then he did not forget to remind him, "There is one more thing that is very important. If she is just playing or her hands and feet are not clean, she can still be properly educated and lead her back to the right path. If we go down Li Ting's road, maybe we learn from people there about drug trafficking and robbery, it's really ruined for the rest of our lives."

"Drugs?" Li Jiangang's pupils shrank.

Li Haitang nodded, "Yes, it's heroin. There were a lot of people in the mixed dance halls over there who were either unlucky in their lives or had gotten addicted to drugs on their own, but the price of drugs was very high, and they would take risks to make money selling drugs if they had no money. And seduce some young girls who are not worldly affairs, give them some small benefits, and induce them to do such illegal things together.

If I say something unpleasant, Li Lan's brain is not smart, and she has never seen the world, and her eyelids are very shallow. She probably doesn't need to spend money, only a few cheap clothes or a few meals to pull her out of the sea. So, in order for your family to be stable in the future, you must find her now, bring her back first, and discuss the rest later. "

"Haitang, second uncle knows." Hearing her say this, Li Jiangang couldn't sit still and immediately got up and said, "Big brother, can you come with me to the zhao family now?"

"Sure, let's go." When Li Jianguo heard Li Haitang say this, his heart was in a knot. He threw away his cigarette butt, went into the house to change his clothes and shoes, and immediately drove him there.

Duan jinqiao, who was washing vegetables at the side, had a pale face and was a little scared, "Sister hoi tong, is what you just said true? A lot of young people do drugs?"

"Yes, I went to Yangcheng twice. I read a lot in the newspaper about the fight against drug gangs. Robbery and theft happen every day. Especially near the Yangcheng train station, there are many factions made up of local snakes. Those people are extremely vicious criminals who don't want to die. Their methods are so cruel that even the local public security and police have nothing to do with them." Li Haitang was very careful every time she went, trying to keep her presence as low as possible, trying not to attract attention. She was worried about being targeted by those people.

"Well, I hope Li Lan hasn't been misled. Your second uncle is also a hardworking and simple Man. Although second sister-in-law is a little more fickle and has unclean hands and feet, his brain is still not muddled at the critical moment. I hope that the child's brain will also be clearer." Liu Fen had more experience than duan jinqiao, especially in the provincial capital this year. He knew that Li Haitang was not alarmist, but sincerely reminding them.

The fish in the pond had just been cut. Li Tao returned with the basket and a large bundle of vegetables in his hand, "Aunt Fen, this is the food from aunt hong juan. On the way back, I saw dad drive out. Where are you going now?"

Liu Fen put the food he had brought back into the kitchen and told him what had happened.

Li Tao's small face was very complicated, and he suddenly jumped in front of Li Haitang with a serious expression, "Sister hoi tong, during the summer vacation, I saw a man near the provincial railway station. He was so thin that there was no meat on his face. His cheekbones were protruding. His eyes were so deep that they were frightening. I once saw him hiding in a dark alley and secretly smoking a white powder. Was that person a drug addict?"

"Yes, that's the drug addict. The white powder is heroin."

Li Haitang did not expect that he had already met him. He warned him seriously, "In the future, you must stay away from such people. If they become addicted to drugs, they will do anything. Also, when something like this happens, you can choose to call the police if you want to ensure your own safety."

Li Tao's face was a little pale, and his lips trembled slightly. He nodded earnestly, thinking to himself, "It seems that we should ask Sister hoi tong more about unusual things in the future. When we walk outside, we can be prepared for this kind of situation."

Duan Jinqiao, who was holding a spinach, had his eyes wide open and his face was full of panic, "Li Tao, have I seen that man before? Her hair was unkempt, and she was wearing a pair of torn pants and a pair of cold slippers. Her eyes were lifeless. I told you the other day that the man looked scary, wasn't he?"

"Yes, that's it. I thought he was sick at first, and that's why he's so thin. Now it doesn't seem like it at all, it's because of drugs." Li Tao didn't notice the man at first, but Duan Jinqiao reminded him, so he looked at him a few times, and then he saw him several times near the train station, one of which was when he was taking drugs.

Liu Fen heard this and warned them seriously, "In the future, when you come and go to the station, you must be very careful to see such people. Don't look at them, don't stay at the station, and don't talk to strangers. Don't take or eat anything from strangers. Just find the adult who came to pick you up and leave immediately, okay?"

"Got it." The two children, who were half and half years old, were very upset and immediately agreed obediently.
