Chapter 1502: Another Precious Pearl ( 2 )

Seeing that his friend didn’t look down on the gift, Chen Jianmin was in a good mood and quickly helped him load the cart. They moved back and forth for almost an hour before filling the carts and Chen Jianmin’s bamboo basket with firewood.

For his family, they would need around ten bundles of firewood per month during winter. Since the coldest temperatures would be in December and January, Dong Li loaded a total of 75 bundles of firewood onto the carts.

As for the bamboo basket, it could hold around 5 bundles. Chen Jianmin tied the firewood and used a shoulder pole to carry ten more bundles. With a total of 90 bundles of firewood, it was more than enough for his family to use until winter passed.

When they were done loading, Dong Li closed the gate, and the two of them went to the Chen family’s house. Since the cart carried lots of firewood, it took a lot of effort to pedal the bicycle. The speed was not much different from Chen Jianmin’s walking pace.

Because of this, they attracted a lot of attention along the way. Before they went to the Chen family’s house, they visited Doctor Xie’s house.

Seeing them coming, Shitou ran over to open the gate and said, "Brother Ah Li, Brother-in-law, what brings you here?"

Chen Jianmin walked into the yard and asked, "Shitou, where is your sister?"

"My sister went with Grandpa to the hospital today. They need to get some medicine from Brother Song Yan," Shitou replied as he helped Dong Li carry a bundle of firewood.

Hearing his words, Chen Jianmin nodded and said, "When your sister returns, tell her she doesn’t have to go to the mountain foothills to get firewood anymore."

"Okay," Shitou nodded.

For Doctor Xie and his two grandchildren, they only needed five to six bundles of firewood each month. So, Chen Jianmin and Dong Li moved thirty bundles of firewood from the carts to the woodshed.

After they were done, Chen Jianmin took out a bag of snacks from his pocket and handed it to Shitou while saying, "Stay at home and don’t go to the river or foothills. If you behave well, your Brother-in-law will bring more snacks for you next time."

The moment he received the snacks, Shitou jumped and danced for a while before he nodded and replied, "Shitou will listen to Brother-in-law."

Standing to the side, Dong Li turned his head, unwilling to watch his shameless friend scamming a little boy.

Chen Jianmin gave Shitou some instructions before leaving with Dong Li. At this point, Chen Jianmin was no longer carrying the shoulder pole and walked faster than before.

With less firewood on the carts, Dong Li was also able to increase his speed. Thirty minutes later, they finally arrived at the Chen family’s house.

"Jianguo, I’m back," Chen Jianmin shouted as he opened the gate.

Hearing this, Chen Jianguo walked out from the backyard and helped them unload the firewood.
