Chapter Twenty-Six: Another Encounter
After breakfast, Uncle Li arranged the vehicle, and Shaoqi took them back to their hometown first.
"This is your home?"
Li Yuanhao looked at the crumbling house in front of him and asked.
Shaoqi has always been a person who is good at disguising his emotions, and he also showed an angry expression when he saw this kind of scene.
The Empire has always had a special care for talent.
He had received a letter from his parents saying that they had become squires and that their house had been renovated, but the scene in front of him was no different from that of his own departure.
Shaoqi suppressed the anger in his heart and knocked on the door, and after waiting for a long time, a young girl dressed plainly and dressed in white opened the door.
"Who are you?" the girl timidly opened the door, and then her eyes lit up to see her brother.
"Shaoqi, why are you back, aren't you going to Qinghua?" said the girl, half delighted, half reproachful.
"I came back for something, and these are a few classmates who came with me. Shaoqi briefly introduced everyone.
His sister beckoned everyone to come into the house and sit down, but this room didn't look like it could enter so many people at once, so she hesitated at the door for a while, and finally Li Yuanhao and Murong Ming decided to come to the door and sit down, letting the others wait outside the door.
Closing the door, Shao Qi ignored the presence of outsiders, and said eagerly: "Sister, didn't the letter say that we are living a good life?
His sister wanted to speak, but she was hesitant, not knowing whether to open her mouth or not.
Shaoqi said with some urgency: "Is it difficult for the Zhang family to be for us again?"
My sister said: "It's not like this, since you went to Qinghua, Zhang Yuanwai has been very good to our family, and today I invited my parents to drink tea here, but it's just ......"
"I'm not going to be slaughtered anymore, no one can dictate me anymore!"
"Xiao Qi pour me a cup of tea, I'm a little thirsty. Li Yuanhao said.
“......”
After pouring the tea obediently, my sister also sorted out her thoughts and said to him: "It's right that our father became a squire, but the silver rewarded by the court has always been on the side of the government, and we went to ask for it several times, but we didn't want to come back." ”
"How dare they deceive people too much!" Shao Qi slapped the table and said, "Have they forgotten the Fang family!"
After saying that, he walked out, apparently to find trouble with them.
As soon as Li Yuanhao stretched out his hand, he stopped him and said, "First dissipate your anger, before you figure out what happened, you rushed out, like something." ”
Then he turned to his sister and said, "Let me ask, when did the reward of the court come down?"
"It was about a month ago, Shaoqi had just set off, and we received the news. ”
"Then what did you say when you went to the yamen?"
"They just said that the accounts were not accounted for and that they could not be sent yet. ”
"It must have been greedy by that group of corrupt officials, I'll go to them and ask for an explanation!" Shaoqi said and walked out again.
"Don't be impulsive, you think it's up to you to ask for something?"
"I can't swallow this breath, I'm going!"
"Don't go!"
"I'm off!"
......
After repeating this several times, the sister next to her was already stunned.
Li Yuanhao finally said helplessly: "I'm afraid of you, I'll talk to them, okay." ”
Li Yuanhao didn't want to wade into this troubled water, but Shao Qiming had an attitude that you don't want to leave if you don't solve it for me.
"That's what you said, but you must help me solve this problem. ”
"What are you talking about, lead the way in front of your head. ”
After settling the others, Li Yuanhao came to the yamen of their land under the guidance of Shaoqi.
