Chapter 124 Chapter 124
After Tong's exam, Luo Yan went out for a long trip, and the private school was suspended for a long time.
The life of brother Li who doesn't go to private school is really happy. He can sleep until the sun is shining every day before getting up. Not only that, he can go shopping and have fun every now and then.
But there are also unpleasant things, and I don’t know what’s going on. In the past, his elder brother, whose head was like a wooden fish, only read sage books, and the three of them were in the same classroom together. In a word, since the last time my wife took action to help the family with a lawsuit, my brother has become very familiar with Xiao Xing.
In these days when there is no school, Brother Xiao Xing is not always the only one looking for him when he comes over. Occasionally, he and his brother will talk about poems and articles in the study, and draw pictures, so they can stay for a whole morning.
He also likes to join in the fun and spend time together in the study room, but after all, his interest is not as high as that of the two of them. He would stay for an hour and then slip away. In the end, he was the only one looking for fun.
Fortunately, his father often went back to the village recently, so he ran to the village after him.
Zhang Fangyuan and Xu He are really busy running around the village these days. The family is thinking about buying hills, so they need to compare them one by one to see the size of the hills, what kind of trees they have, and whether they are sunny or not. There are also things to consider. many.
Although the family can be called rich and honorable now, but after all, the money is not the wind blowing to the extreme. When you are extremely rich, you have to carefully calculate when you encounter big expenses.
Rui Li went to the countryside with his father, from one mountain to another, the mountains in early winter were not too cold, and there were still many sunny days, so it was a good time to climb and see the mountains.
The forest here is lush and sunny. Don't look too much at it, Dad. It's better to just go here on the top of the mountain. There are a lot of mountain elm peppers and wild walnut trees. There will definitely be a lot of harvest in autumn.
Rui Li was a little tired after climbing the mountain road for half an hour, and didn't care about his expensive clothes, so he sat down on the floor.
I pulled a bunch of foxtail grass on the side of the road and rubbed it back and forth, and I have already started to fantasize: When the time comes, I will raise some small rabbits and small prey and throw them in the mountains to raise them. When the autumn harvest is fat and fat, it will be open to the outside like a horse farm in the suburbs, and I will pay for it. But come in and hunt, there will be one more thing to play around our village, how nice it will be.
Zhang Fangyuan glanced at Brother Li: You really know how to plan.
That's right, I will take care of the family business in the future.
Xu He shook his head: Take care of yourself first.
A few people were talking, when a rustling sound came from the steep mountain road, Brother Li pricked up his ears, his eyes sparkled, and hurriedly stood up: There must be little beasts!
As soon as the words were finished, a young boy came down the mountain from behind the bushes on the mountain road carrying two bundles of firewood. Seeing that he was slightly disappointed, Brother Li sat down on the spot again.
He took a look at the man carrying the firewood, and looked immature, seeing that he was about the same age as him, but he was as tall as his brother.
Brother Xiao Li saw the firewood-carrying young man in patched clothes, crawling up and down the mountain to hide his distress, he silently praised this man for being hardworking and capable, and immediately moved his butt to get out of the way without much interest. When he got closer, he narrowed his eyes and smacked his lips. This little villager looks really interesting.
As the book says, stand like a Zhilan Yushu, smile like a bright moon in your arms.
He couldn't help but speak familiarly: Hurry up and get some more bundles of firewood, maybe this place will become a private mountain in two days.
Hearing that the young man carrying firewood was obviously meant for him, he lowered his eyes and glanced at the bored brother with his face on his face: Thank you for letting me know, my lord.
You are welcome, if this is my family's mountain in the future, you are allowed to go up the mountain to cut firewood. Brother Xiaoli smiled and said: Brother Jiyue Qingfeng, our family has always been extremely generous to such talents.
As soon as he finished speaking, he received a slap on the back of the head: I told you that you are not allowed to associate with the chubby guy next door, so you have to learn some words! Master will have your board to eat when he comes back.
Brother Xiaoli rubbed his head: I just said hello to them, and didn't say anything else.
Who's little brother greets you like this, only those local ruffians and prodigal sons in the market speak like this.
Xu He was furious, thanks to being a little brother, if he was a boy, wouldn't he become a frivolous playboy.
Brother Xiaoli covered his head, it would be too embarrassing to be beaten in front of others, but he was too worried, the villagers didn't stay to watch the fun, and when he raised his head again, everyone would leave Far.
He only glanced at it, then looked away, and said to his father who was watching the fun: Dad used to be like this?
Zhang Fangyuan restrained his smile: It's none of my business.
Dad was not a local ruffian before.
Hey, who told your dad that I'm a hooligan? Dad has always been a decent person. Otherwise, how could your little dad talk to me?
Seeing that the two of them talked more and more, Xu He went forward to beat someone up, but the two guys ran fast.
While laughing, a voice came from the mountain road: Boss Zhang is so excited.
The father and son turned their heads, and Zhang Fangyuan frowned: Master Qin also came to see the mountain?
You can buy it if you have money. Boss Zhang can see it. Is it possible that I can't see it?
Master Qin is serious.
Xu He came over when he heard the sound. Young Master Qin, who heard Zhang Fangyuan's call, saw that this person was not Qin Shang, so he guessed in his heart that he was Qin Shang's cousin Qin Zhong. But it can be seen that it is not like Qin Shang who only bullies others by relying on his family's influence.
The simple words between the two were full of gunpowder, and after Qin Zhong left, the originally relaxed atmosphere became less harmonious.
Young master, this man surnamed Zhang was down and out at the beginning. If the young master hadn't rewarded him with a bite of food, how would he have come to be where he is today. In this case of the young master, he has no scruples about his past affection. He must show him some color. Look.
Qin Zhong's face was cloudy and uncertain: Brother, that idiot has often caused troubles for the family, and if he caused troubles, it's fine, but he is a useless idiot. When something happens, he only knows to ask his family to help settle it. Uncle has stayed with him for a long time. , it was actually set up by someone.”
At the beginning of the lawsuit, my father asked my sister to listen to the county magistrate every day. I also said good things. The county magistrate was willing to help, but in the end he was kicked on a nail. He was reprimanded by the magistrate because of the lawsuit. The magistrate of De County was involved in a lawsuit, and he got angry and blamed the Qin family, and the family sent money to the government.
Uncle's shop was ordered to be closed, and the magistrate of Anfu county sent thousands of taels of silver in. If I want to help uncle and brother two idiots again, the Qin family will be ruined by them sooner or later.
The servant said: Then let's forget about the lawsuit?
There is still a long way to go. The Zhang family's business is on the top of the Qin family. It is not for the uncle and brother, but for the business of the family. It is also necessary to keep an eye on it.
Young master is wise.
Xu He looked at the people walking away, and knew that he and Qin's Liangzi were married, and it was impossible to resolve the conflict with just a few words, he said: Seeing that Qin Zhong also wants to buy mountains, let's make a decision earlier, It also saves you from long nights and dreams.
Zhang Fangyuan said: Brother Li likes this place, it's not far from our village, let's settle.
The yamen who led the buyer to see the mountain ran away for many days and was relieved to see that the decision was finally made. Not to mention one thing missing after the mountain was sold, the imperial court will reward some money, and the merchant buyer is also very good , Not only will they have a good banquet, but they will also give some money as hard money.
The hatchback was dealt, Zhang Fangyuan took a stack of banknotes and went to exchange the deed, and went to the yamen to go through the formalities.
The magistrate is quite flexible, as if the previous lawsuit had never happened, he was still the same to Zhang Fangyuan as before, even more polite and enthusiastic than before. Of course Zhang Fangyuan knew what it was for, and he didn't point it out. Life will always pass, and it will be difficult to do things after the trouble with the county government is too ugly.
It's already Dongyue when the purchase of the mountain is completely transferred.
The weather is getting colder day by day, and the houses in the house are filled with charcoal basins. There is not much fun in winter. The wind is strong this winter, and it is always blowing outside. Brother Xiaoli's face freezes after going out for a couple of laps It's flushed, even if I like to go out, I don't know how to go out.
On weekdays, when I took off my shoes and socks, I would lie down on the tavern and read a little book about the latest trends in the city. I would get tired of reading too much.
It wasn't the love stories between the poor scholar and the daughter who would never change until death, or how the daughter escaped from the secular world and the poor children. He left the script, but was interested in those ghosts.
Still reading the storybook? When Ruijin came here, seeing the storybook lost all over the place, she went up to pick it up and stacked it on one side: It's rare to be able to stay in the house for so many days.
I have nothing to do and I can only do these things. Brother Xiaoli closed the scripture book in hand: Brother is not in the study, why did you think of coming to my room?
The master is back from some errands, so the private school will open again tomorrow.
what?
Shocked by the bad news, Brother Xiaoli bounced straight from the soft bed: Master is back!
That way you don't feel like you have nothing to do.
Brother Xiaoli whimpered: I'd rather have nothing to do.
Both of you are here, just in time, two new sets of winter clothes, come and try to see if they fit.
When Xu He entered the room with his clothes in his arms, he saw both brothers were there.
It's cold this winter, so make two thick ones, so you won't be cold when you go to school.
Brother Xiaoli stretched his arms and stuffed his hands into the sleeves of his new clothes. The only consolation was that it might snow in cold weather, so he could see the snow scene at that time.
When did you get a sachet? I remember you didn't like to wear these before.
Brother Xiao Li was letting the girl tie the belt of his new clothes for him, when he heard his little father's words, he turned his head and glanced.
Seeing that his brother wore a small sachet of woven satin around his waist at some point, hanging next to the concentric jade pendant of each of the two brothers.
You did it?
Xu He held the sachet and asked Brother Li.
Rui Li was about to ask where he got this kind of craftsmanship, when he turned his head and saw his brother winking: Isn't it, it's really boring these days, so I made one for my brother when I was free.
It's really well done. It's really good to let Brother Xing teach you how to sew. Xu He looked at the sachet left and right, feeling very satisfied: Why didn't you see you make one yourself?
I'm already very fragrant, so I don't need it.
Only a stinky man wants to hang a sachet, so he slightly rolled his eyes at Ruijin.
Okay, this dress is well made, and it just fits you both.
Xu He patted Ruijin on the back: My brother has grown a lot taller, fortunately he didn't have the small size of last year.
Thank you little dad.
The two said to Xu He.
Okay, I'll go see if your father is back, you guys can continue playing.
Seeing Xu He leave the house, Brother Li moved up to Ruijin like a puppy and sniffed, Brother Xiao Xing made it!
Don't talk nonsense. Ruijin pushed his head away, straightened his clothes, and hung up the sachet.
You still want to deceive me, brother Xiao Xing has Samuume in the yard. Brother Xiao Li snorted, I'll do it for you, but I won't do it for me!
He said he was thanking me for teaching him how to ride a horse.
Brother Xiaoli snorted and said, Brother Xiaoxing is too polite. You didn't teach them, so you only went around twice and then made a sachet to thank you.
As he said that, he smiled again: But that's right, only those who don't know him well are so polite, and it's okay to give brother a sachet.
Zhang Ruijin's brows twitched slightly when he heard this: You and I met Brother Xiao Xing together, why do you say we are not familiar with each other?
There are different levels of people, and there are also close and distant relationships. Brother Xiaoli opened his eyes wide: I talk to Brother Xiaoli every day, and we even sleep on a pillow, and my brother doesn't have one. !
After hearing this, Ruijin flicked his sleeves and went out: The eight articles that the master confessed, you can ask for blessings.
Hey hey!
Brother Xiaoli changed his complacent expression, and quickly put on one shoe after another and chased him out: Don't, you guys are familiar, you should be the most familiar!
