In September, people from the county town came to recruit soldiers, and they also brought back the news of Da Zhuang's death. Li Xiao returned to Li's house at this time.

This conscription is nationwide, and all those over the age of 18 and under the age of 48 must go, unless there is only one male in the family, they can stay at home.

The big pillars and the two pillars all have to be soldiers. The Li family cried. Da Zhuang's death hit the second elder of the Li family very hard, although there has been no news in the past few years, he has been somewhat prepared. But when the news came, it still didn't hold back. Now the two sons are also going to the army. The old man fell ill directly.

Dafang's family, Xiulan makes dry food for Dazhu in the kitchen. When the younger brother learned of her husband's death, she was in a daze in the house with tears in her eyes.

Dazhu called Li Xiao and explained: "Five girls, Dad doesn't want to be difficult for you, you are only ten years old and you are still a child." But Dad really can't rest assured at home, can you promise Dad to help take care of the family?" Li Xiao looked at Dazhu's ashamed appearance and said, "Dad, don't worry, as long as I am here, I will keep my family safe." Dazhu listened, hugged Li Xiao and cried, all he said was thank you and sorry.

Dazhu saw that Xiulan was done, so he called the family to come over and talk. Dafang's family knew that this was after Dazhu arranged for him to leave. They all listened quietly.

Dazhu said: "Listen, after I leave, no matter how big or small things in the family, Wuya will decide." Shirlan: Can you do it? Xiulan cried and said, "I listen to you, listen to Wuya's words." Da Zhu continued: "Da Zhuang is gone, and the younger brother will stay and go, and the younger brother will decide, Wuya decides, can you do it?" When the younger brother heard this, he cried and called out to his father. Xiulan looked at her eldest daughter-in-law and said, "This matter is up to Wuya and her daughter-in-law." Dazhu looked at Sanwang again and said, "Your marriage is arranged by your fifth sister, can you do it?" Sanwang said: "Dad, don't worry, I listen to the fifth sister." Dazhu looked at Xiulan again, and Xiulan cried and said, "Sanwang's marriage is up to Wuya."

Dazhu patted Xiulan and said to Li Xiao: "Five girls, I handed over the family to you, can you help your father take care of it?" Li Xiao cried and said, "Dad, don't worry, as long as I am here, everyone is here." When Xiulan heard Li Xin's words, she immediately remembered the disaster year. She knew that Sanwang was going to stay, and she was stupid, and she had no choice but to cry, only that her youngest son was gone. She also cried and entrusted Sanwang to Wuya, a child who was still in the second room. Wuya also stood in front of everyone, saying that as long as she was in Sanwang, she would be there. It was also that year that Wuya killed someone because of Sanwang, and the second brother and sister had a problem with Wuya. Xiulan suddenly understood what her husband meant. My heart was sour, and I immediately cried, my husband was arranging the aftermath.

Dazhu then told the group to leave. Li Xiao didn't worry about coming to his brother, he was afraid that his brother would do something stupid, so he went to talk to his brother.

Dazhu looked at his wife and said, "You should understand what I mean." I really don't worry about you. Da Zhuang is gone, and Sanwang has not yet married. This home can only work hard for you. You are very fond of Wuya on weekdays, with this child's nature, even if I die in the future, she will be able to treat you kindly." Dazhu chattered all night, and Xiulan listened quietly like this.

Erfang family: Erzhu originally wanted to ask Li Xiao to come over and talk, but Li Xiao had already gone to the big room. He could only go to Li Xiao later. Erzhu said to Sanniang: "After I leave, everything at home will listen to the words of the five girls." Sanniang only knew how to cry and didn't make any answers. Erzhu said anxiously: "Did you hear me speak, I may not be able to come back this time, I am not at home, where can I rest assured." As soon as Erzhu's voice fell, Sanniang cried louder, and Sixi and Wufu also began to cry.

Erzhu looked at the messy home, flipped the table and said, "Don't cry, I'm not dead yet." The crying in the house decreased.

Erzhu pulled Sixi and said: "You take care of your younger brother, you will be in charge of the family's affairs in the future, you can't do the things of the Lord to ask your fifth sister for ideas, although she passed on to the big house, but she is still your fifth sister, you know"? Sixi nodded in agreement.

When Li Xiao returned to the house, she saw Erzhu waiting for her at the door, so she invited Erzhu into the house to talk. Erzhu said: "Wuya, I will hand over the second room to you, can you help me take care of your second aunt and your brothers?" Li Xiao looked at Erzhu and said sadly: "Dad, I really want to help you take care of the second room." But you also know that my second aunt is hostile to me, and I can't promise you what I can't do. I can only take care of them as best I can." Erzhu was very relieved to hear Li Xiao call him father, but when he heard her call Sanniang and Aunt Er, he understood that the relationship between her and Sanniang was irreparable. Erzhu knows that this matter is mainly in Sanniang's attitude.

Erzhu looked at Li Xiao, as if he had made up his mind and said: "You promise your father to help take care of the second room, and I will solve the matter of your second aunt." Then patted Li Xiao on the shoulder and pushed the door out.

Erzhu went out and went to find Village Chief Zhang and asked Village Chief Zhang to help write a letter of resignation. Village Chief Zhang knew about this, but he didn't expect that this in-laws would come to him for help. This is Siya's family matter, and it is not a good thing to let the in-laws' family know it. What kind of role has this in-law been forced to? Village Chief Zhang glanced at Erzhu sympathetically. Erzhu asked Village Chief Zhang to write two copies of the same, and the two copies were respectively according to the handprints of Village Chief Zhang and Li Erzhu, and Li Erzhu and Village Chief Zhang found the old patriarch of the Li family and said in front of the old patriarch: "This is a letter of resignation, with the handprints of me and Village Chief Zhang on it. If one day Sanniang does something out of the ordinary, or does something unfavorable to the five girls of the Li family. I asked the old patriarch to take out this letter and help the Li Shan family tide over the difficulties." Then he took wax and sealed it in front of him, and the old patriarch and the village chief Li stamped their seals at the same time. Erzhu said: "One will be placed here by the patriarch, and one will be placed at Li Xiao's." I'm worried that the kid won't use this thing, and I'll have to trouble the old patriarch to come forward and solve it." After the old patriarch agreed, the two thanked the old patriarch and left.

Early the next morning, Li Xiao called the whole family to go to the old man's room. Li Xiao said in front of the whole family: "I don't know what the situation is in the army now, but it's always good to have money to defend yourself." Here are two pieces of money, you are both my father, so one person is consistent. I will take care of things at home. Until you return safely, the two rooms will be together. As for the rest, it depends on the situation. Please don't worry about the family, please be careful at all times when you are fighting." Then kneel down and kowtow to the two.

The old man said, "You can go to war with peace of mind when you hear it." In the future, the affairs of the family will be under the control of the five girls, and after the five girls get married, they will be under the control of the bosses of each room."

The big pillar and the second pillar bid farewell to the old man. Erzhu walked up to Li Xiao and said, "You take this, if your aunt makes trouble, take this out for everyone to see." After speaking, he followed Dazhu and left.

Li Xiao went back to the house and looked at the envelope, the seal was sealed with wax, and the wax was stamped with a seal. Li Xiao took out a knife and opened it from the end of the envelope, and saw that it was a letter of resignation. The content is Zhang Sanniang's letter of resignation for harming her children and being divorced against her husband's instructions. At the bottom are two mudras. This letter of resignation can directly ask for Sanniang's life. Li carefully thought that his father had no choice. Then seal the opening with rice broth.

After receiving the letter, Li Xiao took out the master's jade pendant and touched it again and again. muttered in his mouth: "It's not that my daughter is unfilial, and I don't give you this jade pendant for self-defense, because I am afraid that you will be guilty." Master, where are you? Now your apprentice has to raise a large family by himself. Master, my father's letter of resignation is not used by the disciples. I just want to live an ordinary life, and this simple wish doesn't seem to work. Master really made your crow's mouth right, and I may actually go dart walking in the future.
