Xu Zi glanced at this side first, and went straight to the north house to sit down.

Li Fu's father and son both stood up, and when they saw that Xu Zi was sitting down on the official hat in the middle, the father and son did not wait for Xu Zi to speak first, so they also sat down.

This is quite rude behavior, and the little sister saw it from a distance, and her face turned red with anger.

Li Cheng is in his fifties, his face is black and yellow, and he is the same as his son Li Fu, but Li Fu is strong, Li Cheng is thin and thin, and after sitting on the chair, a pair of soybean eyes keep looking at Xu Zixian...... He's looking at the face.

There are more than 20 people here in the courtyard, more than a dozen of them are selected from the official village to serve, and five or six people are servants who came from Fuzhou and signed contracts.

Li Cheng has always been the same in the official village, and he is also used to being arrogant in the other courtyard, Xu Zixian and his son originally lived in the city, and they couldn't reach the whip here, Li Cheng was very unhappy with Xu Zixian living in the other courtyard, but he hid this emotion in his heart, and he didn't dare to show it in front of idlers.

But I heard Xu Zixian say: "Li Tiguan has always worked hard, and I don't know what happened when I came to the other courtyard today?" ”

Li Cheng said in his heart, if you are not here, I live in this courtyard, and my hair has not grown up here...... There was a nameless fire in his heart, but he said: "Today is here for the marriage of the little Li Fu." ”

"Li Fu?" Xu Zixian smiled: "I remember that he already has a wife and two concubines. ”

Li Fuping usually took charge of a Zhuangzi for his father, and opened a grocery store, which was watched by his wife, and the goods were inferior and the prices were high, and the business was quite ordinary.

"yes." Li Cheng said solemnly: "The child has been married for almost three years, and there are no heirs yet, so I am really anxious to be a father." Looking at Qi Chu who was born to Xiuniang in the other courtyard, I want to take Li Funa Xiuniang as a concubine, because the service period has not yet expired, so I go back and forth to the son. Wait for the little old man to come from another Zhuangzi, and add a Qi Chu maid to help. ”

Xu Zixian said in his heart, this old thing treats me as a hungry ghost in the sex, and I am afraid that I will not let go of Xiu Niang's beauty...... It seems that Xiuniang's words touched him yesterday, and the Li family father and son were afraid that Xiuniang would say something inappropriate in front of me, and they wanted to get rid of the troubles as soon as possible......

"Xiuniang is very diligent here, and my little sister likes her." Xu Zi got up first and said, "It's not that I refuse to let go, it's that my little sister is reluctant." Besides, this kind of thing is not something I can decide, and I have to allow Xiuniang's family to do so. ”

"That's right, it's the little old man Meng Lang." Li Cheng pulled Li Fu, who looked reluctant, to stand up and said, "The summer harvest is imminent, Zhuangzi is busy everywhere, and the little old man has taken his leave." ”

……

Li Cheng and Li Fu walked out of the south building and followed the sandwich road to the east side of the north building, where there was a tiled house where the family lived in the courtyard.

Li Fu looked unhappy, Li Cheng ignored him, went back to sit in the middle of the tile house, the Hun family came up with a bowl of tea, Li Cheng sat and drank tea slowly-

He has been in the courtyard for more than 30 years, and he still served in the courtyard when the previous generation of Nan'an Hou Xu Yingbin was young. At that time, the courtyard was not dilapidated, there were forty or fifty people waiting for him every day, Li Cheng was quick and quick-witted, and soon showed the difference in a group of children of Zhuang households.

After Xu Yingbin's death, Li Cheng was overjoyed, and Xu Yingbin seemed to have sensed that something was wrong...... Every year, Li Cheng would excuse the time and various reasons, saying that the harvest of each village was not good, and asked the Hou Ye to reduce some exemption money and service money as appropriate, and then at the end of the year, Li Cheng only handed over a small amount of income, and most of it was filled by himself.

Of course, he was not so bold at first, but then he felt that Nan'anhou was kind and deceitful, so he went too far, and then he was addicted, and he couldn't stop knowing that it was wrong.

After Xu Yingbin lost his official position in Qizhou, and then died depressed, Li Cheng finally felt that he was not at risk, and he could do whatever he wanted in the future, until Xu Zi first went to live in another courtyard, Li Cheng soon felt threatened.

The prince is completely different from the past, self-disciplined, hardworking, and kind, and soon the people in the other courtyard like to be close to the son, Li Cheng knows in his heart that as long as the people in the other courtyard are willing to be close to the son, it will be a matter of time before something happens.

He had some faint regrets before, he shouldn't have done things too much, it was more appropriate to take a small head for himself and a big head for the master's family. What's more, Li Cheng still has extra money, and the income from the official village should be given to most of the main family.

But he said in his heart, what have you worked hard for many years? If you don't want to make money as a slave, what backbone do you need? The main family did not realize that the main family was useless......

And there is a lot of income in this village, and more than half of the money is given by Li Cheng to the backer behind him, he wants to withdraw his hand, and the backer behind him will not be willing.

The old man in his fifties sat in a chair drinking tea with a blank face, and his face became more and more gloomy.

Seeing Lao Tzu humming so angrily, Li Fu was a little scared, and stepped forward and said: "Daddy, don't be angry, if I don't marry that Xiuniang, there is something more important than her little lady, I just saw that she was always looking at the world, and I was angry so that I deliberately made fun of her, but something happened." ”

Li Cheng glanced at his son with a gloomy face, and reprimanded: "After this incident, you must know that nothing is wrong and nothing to cause trouble." ”

Li Fuwei agreed, but Li Cheng said: "But you must also remember that you are not afraid of things." If the son of the world is noncommittal, you will shrink, and when people hear about it in the future, who is afraid of our father and son? ”

One sentence aroused Li Fu's ferocity, and he said eagerly: "I'm going to snatch Xiuniang back?" ”

He thought for a moment and said, "Although the prince has only been practicing archery for a few months, I am not afraid of him. ”

Li Fu has long been dissatisfied with the son of the world Xu Zixian, in terms of ability, he feels that his father Li Cheng is a capable person, in terms of appearance, Xu Zixian is much better looking than him Li Fu, and in terms of size, Li Fu is five short toad bodies, Xu Zixian is growing up, those servant women are women, but they don't know how to hide their eyes, how many women look at Xu Zixian, their eyes are burning, how can anyone look at him Li Fu with such eyes?

This is probably the case, the most painful part of his heart is not as good as others, this is what Li Fu is most unhappy about, he feels that the son of the world is hateful, and everyone who lives in another courtyard for a long time is to flatter the son, which is still hateful. When the prince is not here, he Li Fu is like the eldest young master in the other courtyard, and everyone flatters him......

Li Chengxun said: "How can there be such a reason, as soon as the prince reports to the official, he will take the county yamen and beat you to death with a small board." ”

Li Fu said helplessly: "Daddy say it, I'll listen to it." ”

"Don't worry." Li Cheng slapped the tea bowl on the table, and the pottery tea bowl was broken into seven or eight pieces on the table, Li Cheng said fiercely: "Since I was a child, I have only bullied others, and no one can bully me." This Xiu Niang dares to talk nonsense in front of the world, I want to help you get her back, and when we are tired of playing crookedly, we will sell it to Fuzhou City to be a bitch! ”

……

Sanchuankou is another town, and Shuikou Town, Nananze Town stands in the triangle, usually there are a lot of business travel, densely populated. Kong's house is a small courtyard facing the street, and there are two north rooms at the main entrance, and two side rooms, which are low and dilapidated, obviously Kong He's life is not very good.

The officials of the Great Wei Dynasty can't be officials, but it's not so simple to be a small official, either the family is hereditary, or you have to take the silver to go to the relationship, and when you become an official, you have power, and you can exchange power for benefits, Kong He's family can only show that Kong He is a very ethical official, Xu Zixian also nodded slightly when he saw this.

Li Yi was quite straightforward, and only one day later, he found out about Kong He's residence, and led Xu Zi to come over to invite someone first.

"Don't go, I'm messing around here!" Li Yi entered the door and asked to see him, and soon there was a rough shout in the courtyard, which was obviously rejected by Kong He.

Xu Zixian frowned and walked into the courtyard gate, the weather was very hot, the courtyard was narrow and cramped, fortunately, there was a mulberry gate planted in the front yard, there was a breeze blowing, and it felt cooler.

When I entered the north house, I felt very stuffy, Li Yi was standing in the room with an embarrassed face, and when she saw Xu Zi coming first, Li Yi could only frown and shake her head.

"In Xia Xu Zixian, I have seen Brother Kong."

Kong He stood in front of the bed, holding the medicinal soup with a displeased expression, and when he saw Xu Zixian saluting respectfully, he just nodded and regarded it as a salute.

Xu Zixian didn't care, if this person didn't have a temper and personality, how could he be in the current situation? Talents are rare, if you feel that talents are rare, we must first learn to identify talents and tolerate talents, otherwise talents will always be rare.

The hole in front of him is about thirty years old, medium height, the person is very thin, the eyes are bright, showing a very shrewd look, Xu Zixian nodded secretly, born from the heart, the ancients said that the face is not completely unreasonable, from the appearance, temperament, conversation, can not be said to be 100% sure of a person's ability and character, but it will not be too far away.

"The son of the world is a nobleman, how can he delay in this room where there are patients?" Kong He said to Xu Zixian with some impatience: "The Nan'an Hou Mansion is noble, and I can't afford to climb it down, so I don't dare to go up to the mansion to serve." Besides, my mother suddenly fell ill, and I didn't have the heart to be the secretary and bookkeeper of the Hou Mansion. ”

The specifications of the Hou Mansion only have three official positions: Fengchang, guest, and warden, and the rest are ordinary officials......

Kong He is also a county official, and being a Houfu account office is not attractive in the first place.

If you want to use money to attract, the people don't know the situation of the Hou Mansion, and the people in the county government must know very well that the Hou Mansion of Nan'an has long been sitting on empty food, where will they give how much money to invite people.

Xu Zixian did not answer, but stepped forward to see the patient on the bed.

The patient was an elderly woman in her fifties with a flushed complexion, her eyes and trismus closed, and her expression was in pain.

"It's confusing." Xu Zixian said slightly angrily: "Brother Kong really has no common sense, this room is so hot, there is a loom next to Ling Tang's bed, obviously she suffered from heat stroke while weaving in the house, you also put her on the bed and covered it with a quilt, does Brother Kong want Ling Tang to be sick?" Why don't you move to the courtyard quickly, untie your chest and clothes to breathe, and dig well water to wipe it to relieve the heat! ”

Li Yi and Kong He both listened to the expedition, they were full of poetry and books, but they were not good at medicine, at this time listening to Xu Zixian's words was also reasonable, the two of them were stunned, and quickly carried the woman out together according to Xu Zixian's method of treatment.

Xu Zixian took out a bottle of medicine from the purse hanging from his waist and said, "This is Ren Dan, a good medicine for relieving the heat, put ten pills in your mouth, and it will be fine after a while." ”
