Chapter 50: Old Things
Li Luan'er pulled Li Feng'er into Mrs. Jin's room, took out a few volumes of drawings in her hand and spread them out, and smiled at Mrs. Jin: "Madam, this is the drawing I made, you can see what needs to be improved." β
Mrs. Jin walked over and took a closer look, and couldn't help nodding: "I look very good, your drawings are very detailed, and the structural materials are written out in detail, and the craftsmen can save a lot of effort when building houses." β
Li Fenger looked at the renderings of the house and admired: "This house is really good." β
The house on the paper is three yards, the first entry is the faΓ§ade, is Li Chun's small food shop, a total of seven houses are divided into kitchens, halls and several small private rooms, the second into the main house five east and west wings of each three, these eleven houses are ready to have guests to stay overnight, the third and the second into the area is about the same, more is the courtyard planted a lot of peach trees, so, spring can enjoy peach blossoms, autumn can pick peaches to eat, the third entry, is the residence of the main family.
In addition to the three houses, the rest of the place, Li Luan'er also painted peach trees, a few acres of peach trees do not look much, but there are really a lot of planting, in the spring, I am afraid there is really that colorful beauty.
"This house is built, and I'm definitely going to live in the spring." Li Feng'er's face was full of joy: "I'll take Xiaoya with me, and I can pick peaches to eat in autumn, it's really good." β
Mrs. Jin looked at the peach trees, thought for a while, and said: "These peach trees planted, I am afraid that the peaches harvested in autumn will not be able to eat, I have a recipe for making fruit wine here, and with a few medicinal herbs, when the time comes, the remaining peaches will be made into wine and sold, which is another income." β
"Yes." Li Luan'er admires Mrs. Jin very much, this old man has a unique vision, is experienced in handling things, and knows a lot of things, knows literature and martial arts, medical skills and economy, human contacts, there is almost no she can't, since there is Mrs. Jin in this family, Li Luaner consciously saves a lot of trouble, and there are people who can discuss things, she is now very glad to have saved Mrs. Jin.
"Even Mrs. thinks that the design of this house is good, then please ask Mrs. to find a craftsman to operate, I will prepare for it in the next few days, and I will go to Cangshan County soon, and I will ask Mrs. for a qiΔ at home." Li Luan'er put away the drawings and said to Mrs. Jin, turned her head and looked at Li Feng'er again: "Feng'er, I don't know how long it will take to come back, you can't be naughty, you have to listen to Mrs. Listen, remember to discuss with Mrs. if you have something, do you hear it." β
"Sister." Li Feng'er was shocked: "What are you doing in Cangshan County?" β
Li Luan'er sat down and told Yan Chengjing about asking her to go to Cangshan County to fight tigers: "We don't have much money in our family, I think that killing that big insect can add a lot of income to the family, enough for us to live a good life, and when the spring comes, my brother's snack shop opens, and we will have income, and at that time, I don't have to go back and forth between the mountains and forests every day." β
Li Feng'er shook her head, with horror and reluctance on her face: "Sister, the family has enough money, let's just save the flowers, why should you ...... Besides, the mountains and forests in Cangshan County are high and dense, who knows what else is in it, I heard people say that the prey around the mountains and forests dare not enter the deep mountains, you, you take a boy and brother over, this is not clear...... What can we do if something happens, sister, let's not go. β
Mrs. Jin frowned: "It's really dangerous, Luan girl, you don't have to worry about it, the money at home is enough for us to survive the winter, and when it comes to autumn and winter, you can just shoot more small prey, and I and Feng Yatou do some needlework and sell on weekdays, which is enough for us to live, so why be so ......"
Li Luan'er has already made up her mind, naturally she will not change, the smile on her face has not faded, and her right hand gently knocked on the table: "I have already made up my mind with Young Master Yan, how can we go back on our word, we will rely on the Yan family more in the future, if I don't show a second-hand person, after a long time, how can people be willing to rely on us, this person gets along with people, how can he be separated from interests, if I don't let people see the usefulness of our family, why should the Yan family help us, besides, didn't we say okay, we want to make more money for my brother to marry a bride, I got the money this time and came back, so I took a good look to see if there was a poor family with many daughters and good raisers, so let's discuss it and ask for a bride for my brother. β
"But." Li Feng'er still wants to persuade again, she really doesn't worry about her sister going hunting, she usually hunts, just hunting some hares and pheasants or something, this is not afraid, but the mountains and forests in Cangshan County, Li Feng'er is afraid when she thinks about it: "I'm really not at ease." β
"Put your heart in your belly." Li Luan'er persuaded with a smile: "It's not that I haven't fought a big worm, I'm afraid of something, besides, isn't there still a young master Yan." β
It's because of him that I'm not at ease, Li Feng'er wants to say this, but looking at Li Luan'er's face, she knows that she has made up her mind, she really doesn't know how to persuade her.
Mrs. Jin nodded at this time: "Since you want to go, go there, don't worry about the family, I will take good care of it." β
After convincing her family, Li Luan'er was also relieved, and in the next few days, she began to prepare the things she had to bring up the mountain, including the medicinal powder that Mrs. Jin prepared for her, a few changes of clothes, and some silver taels, as well as ropes and other things.
A few days later, Yan Chengjing also made the tools that Li Luan'er wanted, especially the machete that Li Luan'er wanted, which was completely made of 100 steel, which can be described as a supreme weapon.
With these things, Li Luan'er is more confident.
On this day, Li Luan'er settled down at home, and set off for Cangshan County with Yan Chengjing.
The Yan family is a family of military generals, and they are quite wealthy, and the wealth used along the way is naturally borne by Yan Chengjing, and the horses used by the two are also found by Yan Chengjing.
Yan Chengjing is young, his temperament is very sassy, he is riding a white horse, wearing a neat silver and white shirt, which makes Li Luan'er think of a sentence he heard a long time ago, the one who rides a white horse is not necessarily a prince, but it may be, well, Tang Seng.
Yan Chengjing rode on a white horse, and sure enough, he inherited Tang Seng's potential, chattering all the way, telling Li Luanhe to want to plug his mouth.
"Big lady, your jujube red horse was personally chosen by my brother, let me tell you, my brother has a very good set of horses, and he used to raise horses when his legs were fine, at that time, my brother's mount was a real thousand miles of horses, and I don't know how many people in the capital envy it."
Yan Chengjing praised Yan Chengyue all the way: "My brother was a rare handsome man in the capital at that time, he was a real all-round talent in civil and military affairs, and he was good-looking, how many girls secretly admired my brother." β
Li Luan'er glared at him: "Later, why did your brother's leg break?" Also, what kind of hatred do you have with the Zhang family? β
Yan Chengjing was so young and easy to coax, coupled with Li Luan'er's urgency, he replied without thinking much for a while: "That year, my brother made an appointment with someone, and he was plotted against ......"
Li Luan'er nodded while listening, and finally understood what was going on with Yan Chengyue's legs.
It turned out that the horse was startled by someone else's plot, and it was not just one horse that was shocked, several horses entered the mountains and forests together, Yan Chengyue's horse suddenly stumbled and fell into the trap, Yan Chengyue did not fall in, but he fell very strictly, fell to the ground and couldn't get up, and was trampled on a horse running from behind and broke his leg.
"Then your family has not found anyone to heal, and it stands to reason that it can be cured." Li Luan'er asked again.
Speaking of this, Yan Chengjing was angry: "Why didn't I find someone to treat it, my brother immediately looked for the imperial doctor when he came back, who knows, the imperial doctor was also bribed, and deliberately gave my brother a medicine that restrained him, and treated my brother like that." β
"What about the Zhang family?"
"Don't mention his family, it's angry when you mention it, the Miss Zhang family and my brother are childhood sweethearts, the two families have an old relationship, and they have been engaged to each other since childhood, but as soon as my brother's matter came out, the Zhang family knew that my brother had become a waste, so they spread rumors about our Yan family, and then the Zhang family found my family to withdraw from the family, that's it, in the end, my brother became like that, I can't drag Miss Zhang for a lifetime, our Yan family is not that hard-hearted, and I don't blame his family."
Li Luan'er listened and thought carefully, it seems that this Zhang family is quite cold in their bones.
"But who knew that Miss Zhang's family was so rude, she ran directly to my house to find my brother, and sneered at her words, saying that my brother was abolished, and he couldn't stand up anymore, even if he was talented, it was useless, and said that she was so good, it would never be possible to lose a lifetime for my brother, and kept saying that my brother couldn't get a wife in his life, so he begged, I'm afraid it was also the daughter of the poor family who didn't know how to read etiquette and no one to support her, all for the Yan family's money to marry my brother, at that time, she said those words not to mention how ugly they were, My brother's broken leg was enough to make a fire, but he was hit by her again, and he almost lost half his life. β
