Chapter 423: Moving, Separating
The haze in Li Xiguang's heart made their words dissipate a lot, and it also made him regain the feeling of drinking and eating meat in Zhao's house before. Maybe he thought too much, it wasn't that Uncle Zhao was deliberately greedy for the two hundred taels of silver, and he might not have any troubles. Thinking about it like this, he felt much more comfortable, and the expression on his face became a lot more natural. Anyway, now there is no shortage of the two hundred taels of silver, as long as Zhao Qing can have an attitude, he can forgive him.
So, several women of the Zhao family started together, took out all the ingredients that could be used at home, renovated a table of sumptuous home-cooked food, and asked Zhongrui to go to the city to drink wine, and several people chatted while eating, until it was completely dark, Li Xiguang said goodbye and walked out of Zhao's house.
During the whole eating process, Li Xiguang didn't ask a word, and Zhao Qing didn't explain anything, and the two tacitly ate together for the first time after separation. It was only when Li Xiguang was about to leave that Zhao Qingcai suddenly became drunk and said ashamedly: "Xiguang nephew, uncle is sorry for you!" I don't know how I've been here for a few years, you know what it's like? What is it like to be gnawed by your conscience day and night, and you can't sleep at night? Hehehe・・・・・・ I don't have the face to see you! You trust me so much, but I failed you, my ** conscience was really eaten by a dog! But, you know what? I couldn't help it!
Zhongli, do you remember? Since I was a child, he has been against me, and he has been against me for everything, and he doesn't listen to me at all. But he is my brother's only blood, and I can't watch him die! Two hundred taels of silver, where did I go to find him at that time? If it weren't for your two hundred taels of silver, Zhongli's kid's grave grass would have grown a few stubbles, and our Zhao family would not have been able to pay you back until death. However, I don't regret it, even if the matter starts all over again, I still choose to save Zhongli's kid, even if you hate your uncle, I will admit it! ”
Li Xiguang understood the whole story, and although he was still not very comfortable, he was relieved. So, he looked at Zhao Qing and said sincerely, "Uncle Zhao." I know you have a hard time, you didn't mean it, my heart is much more comfortable, nothing else matters, the important thing is that we are all alive. It's good to be alive. ”
The Zhao family was confused by the words of the two, but they all remembered two hundred taels of silver, and when they heard the Zhongli mentioned, why didn't they understand? It must be Zhao Qing who gave Li Xiguang's two hundred taels of silver to Zhao Zhongli to pay off his gambling debts. This realization made the family popular enough. Grandma Zhao scolded directly: "You dead old man!" And what trouble did you cause for that dead boy? Yes? Did you spend Xiguang's nephew's money? Ouch! I'm so angry, why do you dare to spend any money? Why don't you just take a knife and kill me!" ”
The rest of the people also have resentment against the old man, two hundred taels! Where shall they now go to find two hundred taels of silver? Isn't that fatal? If Li Xiguang really wants this money, it won't be enough to smash the pot and sell iron!
Li Xiguang knew what the Zhao family was thinking, sighed secretly in his heart, and said, "Okay, auntie, it's not a big deal, don't take this money to heart, just let me honor Uncle Zhao." My family is not short of that money now. I won't talk about it again. ”
After that, Li Xiguang took his eldest son Xiaoshan out of the Zhao family and went straight to the courtyard in Zhuangzi.
When his father decided to have dinner at Zhao's house, Xiaoshan asked Lin Guotian to send Xiaowen and them back to the city, and by the way, he told Aunt Sù that he and his father lived in Zhuangzi tonight. Therefore, the father and son returned to their yard when they came out of Zhao's house, and the old man Zheng in the porter had not stopped, running before and after serving the old and young owners. Everything is complete here. The father and son washed up briefly and rested in the east room.
The next day, Li Xiguang was thinking about the family's move today. I woke up early. Neither father nor son was alarmed, and led the hill's horse out of the yard quietly. The gate of Zhuangzi was double-safed with iron chains and door plugs, and Li Xiguang opened it from the inside, and rode directly with Xiaoshan on a horse to the south city gate.
The two returned to the house. Seeing the people in the mansion moving things to the carriage and ox cart under the command of Ouyang Luo, Li Nian, and Li Zhengxing, Li Xiguang and the eldest sister said a few words, and then Xiaoshan also joined the move.
After a morning, the family finally moved into the new house. Li Xiguang, the old house, left two people under Chai Bin to guard it temporarily, and how to use this house after that will wait for Xiaoyu to come back.
In the new house. Li Xiguang communicated with the eldest sister and arranged the residence of himself and his four sons in a courtyard. As soon as he entered the hospital, he had no name, and Li Xiguang named it "Jingye Hall", implying the names of himself and his wife. He himself lived in the main landlord's house, the eldest son Xiaoshan and the little servant Li Zhen lived in the Hanmei Garden on the east side, the second son Xiaowen and the little maid Li Nan lived in the Cedar Garden, the third son Xiaowu and the little maid Li lived in the Chrysanthemum Garden, and the fourth son Xiaohu and the little maid Li Ping and Li Yi lived in the Zizhu Garden.
No one lived in the main house in the courtyard of the second entrance, and it was left to Li Ziyu and Xiaolan.
On the east and west sides of the second courtyard, there are also four independent courtyards. The east is called Qiuxiang Pavilion and Listening to Rain Pavilion, and the west is called Jade Pavilion and Water Lotus Pavilion. Ouyang Luo and Xiao Ou lived in Qiuxiang Pavilion, and Li Nian lived in Tingyu Pavilion.
Because Li Ziyu was not at home, the four big girls temporarily lived in the east wing of the second courtyard, and the two of them were in one room. They temporarily served a few small masters, big and small, and did not make a clear division of labor. Because the big girl and Xiaoyuer that Li Ziyu had assigned before were to serve her and Xiaolan, and Xiaocao was to serve Ouyang Luo and Xiaoou's mother and daughter, and the ringtones were assigned to the sewing room. So now I can only do this now, and wait for Li Ziyu to come back before buying someone.
In fact, several little masters should be equipped with maids and mothers-in-law according to the identity of the master, but Li Ziyu is not at home, it involves buying people, although Li Ziyu let Ouyang Luo manage the house when she left, but she still didn't make the decision to buy people, just wait for Li Ziyu to come back.
Except for a few big maids who were placed in the lower house, Lin Guotian and Xue Manchu still occupied two separate courtyards, and the rest were placed in one courtyard. The little masters are now separated, and each has its own courtyard, so these little guys have to accompany the masters day and night, and there is no time to live in the next room.
In addition, Ah Quan sent Ah Mu, Ah Xi and twenty of their subordinates, and the dozen or so people before Chai Bin joined together. Li Xiguang asked them to coordinate by themselves, and the main courtyard and the little masters were staffed, and the front and rear doors and various courtyards were also guarded.
Ah Xi was the first female secret guard by Li Xiguang's side, and Li Xiguang assigned her to Xiaolan's side, and was also responsible for the security guard of the second courtyard.
After Qiē settled properly, Li Xiguang, Li Zhengxing, and the four guards also arrived at the day of returning to the army. Li Xiguang endured his reluctance to the children, said goodbye to his eldest sister, sister and children, and returned to the army on the fourth day.
Xiaoshan and Xiaowen stood at the door with their younger siblings, looking at the backs of their father and uncle riding away, feeling uncomfortable but not wanting to show it in front of their younger siblings. Xiaohu and Lan Lan cried, and couldn't stop saying, "Second brother, when will Daddy come back?" Why hasn't my sister come back yet? I miss my sister! Woo・・・・・・"
Xiaoshan and Xiaowen squatted down, hugged their younger siblings in their arms, and comforted them softly: "Come on, my sister will be back soon!" “
Xiaolan still had tears on her face, and asked expectantly, "Really?" ”
Xiaoshan and Xiaowen seriously assured: "It's true, my sister will definitely be back soon!" (To be continued.) )
