Zhao Wangchuan had a gloomy face all the way, and returned home in a bad mood, so he was angry at the wooden stake in the backyard. Wei Lu called Zhao Fan and the others to question, only to know that her son went to see King Jing today.

As for why Zhao Lichuan was so angry, Wei Lu couldn't ask, and those people didn't know.

accompanied Zhao Lichuan to vent in the backyard until midnight, and Wei Lu returned to the room tiredly. As soon as she sat down, the burned part of her back was scorchingly painful. It looks like the weather is about to change.

"Aunt Lin, help me boil the pot of hot water." Wei Lu shouted out the door.

Aunt Lin heard that Wei Lu's voice was wrong, so she pushed the door in first. I saw Wei Lu lying on her side on the bed with a painful expression, sweating profusely. Aunt Lin instantly understood the source of Wei Lu's pain.

"Madam, bear with me first, there is hot water in the kitchen, and the old slave will call." After Aunt Lin said this, she disappeared in front of the door.

Since it was not the first time that such a situation had been encountered, the subordinates of the Zhao family did not make much movement. It's just that the kitchen piece, which is slightly more lively than usual, still attracted Zhao Lichuan's attention,

"What do you say? My mother's wound hurts again? Zhao Wangchuan smashed the wall with his fist in annoyance. He's such a bastard that he's forgotten about it. "I'll go to the backyard and see what's going on. You will do what I have just arranged, and get things done as soon as possible. After explaining the matter at hand, Zhao Lichuan ran to the backyard.

As soon as he entered the backyard, Zhao Lichuan was smoked by a strong smell of medicine. He was familiar with the smell of medicine. Back then, for a full year and a half after Wei Lu escaped with him, he had to tinker with this medicinal herb for Wei Lu every day.

"Mother Lin, how is my mother?" Zhao Wangchuan asked Wei Lu about the situation through the door.

"Young master, don't worry, Madame is fine. When this medicine is applied, Madame will be well tomorrow morning. Aunt Lin's voice came out from behind the door, without a trace of nervousness and anxiety.

"Mother, how are you?" It's just that Zhao Wangchuan is still not at ease, he is eager to hear Wei Lu's voice.

"Mother is fine, forget your child and go back to rest." Wei Lu's voice came out as he wished, except for some weakness, it was quite normal.

Zhao Wangchuan was a little relieved. But he didn't turn back: "Mother, then you apply the medicine well, if there is anything, let someone call me." ”

Looking at the moon in the sky with only a small crescent moon left, the fire of hatred in Zhao Lichuan's eyes burned brightly. Even after so many years, he still can't get rid of the scene of that night. Over the years, how many times he has woken up from nightmares, he still thinks that he is still in the fire.

When Wei Lu's condition finally stabilized and she was able to sleep, the sky was already white. Zhao Wangchuan returned to his courtyard with confidence. He stood for most of the night, but he still couldn't extinguish his anger.

Early in the morning, Li Xiaonuan woke up from a dream. Granny Fish's big has crowed several times. Li Xiaonuan got up, pulled the curtain on the bed open, and a ray of light came in through the crack in the window.

Breathing in the free and fresh air, Li Xiaonuan unconsciously smiled. But the smile didn't linger on her face for long, because she remembered something. As for the matter of growing chili peppers privately, she had to make it clear to those villagers today.

I just don't know if the villagers will believe in her anymore, follow her footsteps, and create the outdoor peach orchard of her dreams together.

"Xiao Nuan, are you up?" Outside the door, Su's voice sounded softly. "Your aunts are here, if you get up, come out quickly."

Li Xiaonuan's mind was not very clear, so she thought for a while before she realized that the aunts Su was referring to were actually Aunt Zhou.

"Hey, I'll be right here. Mother, you ask the aunts to wait for me a little. Li Xiaonuan's crisp voice should arrive.

After washing up indiscriminately, Li Xiaonuan put on her favorite little floral clothes and pants and went out of the room.

"Ladies and gentlemen, it's so early!" Li Xiaonuan entered the hall with a smile on her face.

"Xiao Nuan, you can count it. Come and sit down. When Aunt Zhou saw Li Xiaonuan, she hurriedly beckoned her to sit down.

From the slightly worried faces on the faces of the dozen or so aunts present, Li Xiaonuan guessed that they must have known about the illegal cultivation of chili peppers.

"Aunts, I'm sure you've all heard those rumors. Suffice it to say that those rumors are true. So even if you don't come to me, I'm going to come to tell you today. After sitting down, Li Xiaonuan went straight to the point.

"Xiao Nuan, since you know that there is such a thing, why didn't you tell us in advance? You say what to do now, right? When you first planted chili peppers, you also advocated it. It was a cousin-in-law of the main family in the old Zhou Village who spoke.

"That's right, if we had been told that it would be illegal to grow that pepper in private, we would definitely not have been stupid to plant it." This is a cousin and daughter-in-law of Granny Yu, who is not very popular because she speaks straight on weekdays.

Then, the others also talked nonsense. Originally, Aunt Huang and Aunt Zhou also had a trace of dissatisfaction on their faces. It's just that when they heard that everyone was blindly accusing Li Xiaonuan, they couldn't help but support Li Xiaonuan.

"I said all of you, just stop in moderation, you have to let Xiao Nuan make it clear. If you want me to say, Xiao Nuan must not have known that it would be illegal to grow chili peppers privately. Aunt Zhou raised her voice and suppressed the audience.

The scene instantly quieted down, because the purpose of their coming here was to want Li Xiaonuan to give them an explanation and a solution. So, they quickly quieted down.

Seeing that everyone finally stopped, Li Xiaonuan slowly spoke: "Aunts, I know you are anxious and scared. This matter is also my lack of thought, and I took you to plant peppers without investigating it clearly. To be honest, I only found out the day before yesterday that this was illegal. ”

"Before I came back, I had already figured out a solution. I just don't know if your aunts will agree. I was thinking that after breakfast, I would gather everyone to discuss it. It just so happens that you're all here, so I'll save a lot of trouble. ”

"Xiao Nuan, are you saying that you have a way to keep us from being implicated?" is still the cousin-in-law of the Li Zheng family.

Granny Yu's cousin and nephew glanced at the woman appreciatively, and then looked at Li Xiaonuan expectantly like everyone else, wanting to hear what she had to say.

"Aunts, the land where your family grows chili peppers is not a good land. Otherwise, sell me all the land. When the time comes, if someone is sent from above to investigate, you can just say that the peppers are all grown by our family. When the matter is over, the land will still be yours. We just need to go to Lizheng and make a note. ”

"It's one. There is another way, and that is to exchange our land for you. It's just that our family only has more than two acres of land in the village now, which may not be enough to change. In addition to exchanging land, that is, you really sold the land to our family. ”

"Is that possible?" "yes, that's a good idea." "Xiao Nuan, if you really want to do this, what can your family do?" “……”

Li Xiaonuan's words fell, and everyone started talking about it, and she couldn't interject for a while. (To be continued.) )
