After Li Yuanyang left, Li Hu still raised food and bought grain with others according to the plan. Now the county is employing workers, and hiring people to transport to the Grand Canal, and there are many workers in the quarry here, plus the formation of arms, it is not obvious that the problem can be solved by the general embassy, and food is still the top priority. In the evening, I went to the newly built courtyard of Yang Yanyan's house for dinner, there were already guests waiting in it, and the county lieutenant Chen Wu came somehow, sitting on the side of Yang's mother with a smile, listening to her, and a girl from a distant relative's door stood behind Yang Yanyan and her mother and pinched her shoulders.

Chen Wu was still at ease in front of Yang Yanyan and her mother, but Li Hu was uncomfortable when he came, and quickly stood up.

Also, this Li Hu called Baihe, and finally did something earth-shattering, and now he has changed from a poor boy who was picked up to a rich man, raising thousands of people, and once he goes out, more than a dozen horsemen are wrapped in front of him, and the smoke and dust are high, and I heard that he is also a first-class character in the county, like Chen Wu, as soon as he gets closer, he feels that he is surrounded by a bad breath, not to mention speaking calmly, he doesn't dare to raise his head.

Li Hu was polite, pressed his shoulder, and asked him to continue to sit down...... Mother Yang also saw that this Chen Wu was afraid of Li Hu, and he was so afraid that he didn't dare to look at it, and reminded: "You are a brother." You sit. You sit. If there's anything, you sit down and tell him. ”

Chen Wu couldn't resist, sat down, and before Li Hu could sit down, he said, "Yang Wuwei was arrested and left." ”

Li Hu asked rhetorically: "Arrested and gone?" Don't have enough people in their family? That's not right. It's been a long time, and the collusion bandits haven't been confirmed, and the government hasn't done much to them. ”

Chen Wu said: "This time it was arrested. It's not caught in the county yet. I know what's going on, and there is also an official document from the county, asking Suodin to arrest and clear the bandits. ”

Li Hu repeated: "Suo Ding catches thieves and clears bandits? ”

Mother Yang couldn't help but interject: "I was still talking about it just now." This is where you have to work everywhere, people are hiding, and the government doesn't let you look for them everywhere? Taxes are also heavy, crops are barren one by one, and bandits are rising again. ”

Chen Wu sighed and said, "Yes." I think it's the same in other places, and the court knows it, otherwise there wouldn't be a Sodin to catch thieves and clear bandits. The instructions are too strict zhòng, and they are everywhere. When he said that, he said: "It is precisely because of this great ability to catch thieves and clear bandits that the top has taken him, and there are more than a dozen of them together." Childe has a feud with their family, isn't he bribing bandits? I intercepted and killed you halfway, and I'm here to report the good news. ”

Mother Yang saw that he was talking very much, and said for him: "The good news is one, the Yang family wants to make money, and there is a shortage of money in their hands, so they ask an acquaintance in the county to sell land, and County Lieutenant Chen wants to buy some, and he has almost money in his hand, and he knows that you also want to buy land, thinking that you will borrow a few from him, and he will come forward for you and buy the Yang family's land." ”

Li Hu smiled: "They sell land? If you have an enmity with me, I can't buy it? ”

Mother Yang said: "It is said that you are working hard in the county, and the clan is in chaos, isn't it that someone ran to our house two days ago, saying that Yang Wuwei's patriarch was dismissed, and they have nothing to do with Yang Wuwei?" She chuckled and said, "It has nothing to do with Yang Wuwei, I came to an old lady and said, Ah Hu, I was scared by you." People still want a name in our village, so that we can return to our sect. I said that my old man said that I am not the same as you. When they went back, they even found out the genealogy, obediently, they found it on the top, and they were really a family. ”

County Lieutenant Chen said on the side: "How can it not be a case, our Yi County Yang and Zhe surnames are the same ancestor, who doesn't know?" ”

Yang Yanyan's mother said, "Ah Hu." See for yourself whether there is a shortage of land. I think that when a person fishes it out, he sees that the land is in your hands, and the hatred is even deeper. ”

Li Hu nodded.

After all, the old lady is in her teens, this is clear, and it is also a reminder to Li Hu, you bought land with money, and gave the enemy a chance to breathe, when he came out, he was still looking for revenge.

But Li Hu was short of land and food, so he said: "I want to buy grain together, I am short of grain at the moment, and I will send an account office to you tomorrow to sum it with you." ”

Chen Wu left, and Yang whispered to Li Hu, "Your brother is still outside." Call him back, let him throw his broken ship, and do you a favor...... If you get thousands of acres of land, you have to have someone, and there are many people around you, but your brother. Let him come back. I haven't been to sea much this year, so will I keep that ship for the rest of my life? ”

Li Hu hurriedly said, "I know." ”

He thought for a moment and said to Yang: "Auntie, don't worry. If he is reluctant to give up the boat, I will have someone build him a rolling log and push it all the way back to see if he comes back. ”

Yang smiled and said, "Huh." You're teasing your aunt. ”

Li Huyan said, "It's true. ”

It's not a matter of being funny or not.

After dinner, I got tired of Yang Yanyan for a while, Yang Yanyan proposed marriage in the neighboring village for a while, Li Hu was here, Tong Shikui was all feathers, and his relatives didn't dare to say anything, within a radius of dozens of miles, did anyone dare to propose marriage? Li Hu knew that this was urging him to propose, and he couldn't help but hesitate.

Taking advantage of the moonlight to go to the stone field, and in the sand pit of the stone field, he couldn't help but say, "Brother." What to do? Yanyan urged me to propose. ”

How does Turi Niu know what to do?

He asked, "Why don't you tell your family?" ”

Li Hu said: "I said that I want to say it." Tomorrow I will go to the school in Yi County with me to have a look, and take Yan Yan to study, she will not be idle all day long, and she will have less to do. After it was built, I haven't seen it, and I heard that not only our Dongxia, but also young men and women in Yi County are studying in it. ”

Fang Hai, who was standing next to him, shouted, "Listen to Yang Li, it's all for you." If you ask the masonry to send the child to study, someone will let him read it, and read it to you, do you really let them read? ”

Li Hu stopped his movements, stood still, turned his head to look at Fang Hai, and asked him, "Read it to me?" ”

Fang Hai said, "Yes." Let me go to study, and when I came to the scene, I told the field that my baby went to study. You will know if you say a word, and you will say it the next day, and then ask, does the owner know? ”

Li Hu was stunned.

He only had a helpless part, and after a while, he smiled and said: "That's okay, besides, you will answer, saying that the owner knows, and in addition, if the child goes to study, according to my father's method, give a subsidy, which is more or less a meaning, that is, let them all send the child there." ”

Tuli Niu said unhappily: "That's our Dongxia school." They can't get on, what the hell are you doing? ”

Li Hu retorted: "You don't understand this. In the school, we are Mr. Dongxia, teaching our Dongxia studies, children learn the knowledge of Dongxia, there will be Dongxia people's ideas, respect our Dongxia, and will be good friends with Dongxia people. He turned around, walked to Fang Hai's side, took the cloth towel handed by Fang Hai, wiped the sweat, then turned his head and asked, "Think about the power of Dao Tong." ”

After wiping his sweat, he demanded: "Yanyan's matter, you write a letter home first, so that the family thinks that I don't know, you wrote it secretly, see what they mean." ”

Turi Niu frowned. He already knows what Li Hu means, if he really writes secretly, writes some truths, even if it is a little prejudiced, anyway, he doesn't take it out at home for Li Hu to know, and Li Hu looks at himself and writes, so you still have to make it up? Yang Yanyan must at least be as beautiful as a flower, virtuous and virtuous, otherwise can you pass him, but if what you write is irresponsib, what if you find yourself to settle accounts at home in the future? Thinking about this, he hurriedly said, "Don't worry. There is no hurry. Let's let her go to school, let her go to the school first to fool around and occupy time. I think about it, people are stupid, think about how to write, and then write, Ah Hu, don't worry, I will definitely write. ”

He was with Li Hu every day, and he knew the relationship between Li Hu and Yang Yanyan, and muttered in a low voice: "I haven't kissed my mouth, I haven't touched my chest...... When people say that if you get married, you will get married, do you understand the things between men and women? ”

Li Hu asked him, "What did you say?" ”

Fang Hai chuckled and replied for him, "I learned a few Buddhist scriptures from Monk Daolin and recited them." ”

Tuli Niu gave Fang Hai, a person who knew me, a look.

Li Hu still had to study, so Tuli Niu didn't bother him, arranged for him to go to the sentry, and found a few Dongxia people to play chess by himself.

In the middle of the night, Li Mandarin Duck actually touched it back.

Tuli Niu was screamed at and was startled, Li Yuanyang is so hot, you can't guess if you don't have an accident.

Something did happen, the county arrested more than a dozen people, said that it was the leader of the bandits, in the morning according to the downtown to behead the decision, in the afternoon Li Yuanyang went to the yamen, turned around, found that many rich people were unfortunate, all called there, they were all detained to ask about the bandits. In the evening, Shi Jingsun arrived, Li Yuanyang went up to report his home, and Shi Jingsun said: "The imperial court wants Suo Ding to arrest thieves and clear bandits, and you rich family workers and tenants may not have it inside." So they all shouted, and the people were detained here for checking, and as soon as it was dawn tomorrow, the county soldiers would take them straight over to check the household registration. ”

None of the household registrations can be checked.

Whose tenants are not bad?

They pay all kinds of taxes to the government, and then they pay all the male labor, and they have to pay rent to the owner when they turn around, they don't eat or drink, and the children in the family are all iron-clad can go to the field and plow the fields? Because more than a dozen people were killed in the morning, people were panicking, and they were trying to deliver news to their homes, so that they could prepare money to eliminate the disaster.

Li Yuanyang was also shocked.

It's the same with the stone field, not everyone has a nationality.

This arrest and investigation, many families sent people to the stone field in order to escape Ding, and Li Yuanyang knew it. It is said that he is a dark soul of Dongxia, and he has also experienced swords and swords, so he should be calm and calm, but this Jingkang's official mansion gives him a feeling that is too terrifying, you said that he was detained there, and the soldiers escorted him back to the stone field the next day. What if you say it's a fugitive, or say it's a bandit?

What's more, in the mountains behind the stone field, there are indeed "bandits".

So he asked Shi Jingsun for advice.

Shi Jingsun said: "Since you are from Li Hu's family, I will let you go, you go back quickly, and let Li Hu come to me by himself." These days, even I can't figure out what kind of wind is going to blow in the sky. ”

Because there was a hidden enemy in the government, if this matter was not done well, it was necessary to do it with the government, so he was forced to raise troops in advance, and Li Yuanyang did not let others come back, and he touched it back overnight.

As soon as he said this, Tuli Niu was also startled and scolded: "What kind of official mansion is this? What do you say this is for? ”

Who knows what?

Li Yuanyang judged: "The main thing is to take the big family and ask for money." The real big family, they can't afford to mess with it, I asked, Chen Zhai is fine, they just look for some rich people in the countryside. It's just that we have a special situation, and we still have weapons in our possession, so I'll run back, hurry up, and then send the money. ”

Call Li Hu up.

When Li Hu heard this, he asked Li Yuanyang: "You didn't ask Liu Chang?" ”

Li Yuanyang said: "He went to the state city to visit relatives. It seems that some people in their clan have been detained, and I went to the door to ask what to do, and hurried back to hide the ordnance and then talked. Besides, the local people are not strict in their mouths, and they all say that we are training troops in the mountains, is it possible that we are not vigilant and fail to raise troops? ”

Li Hu thought for a moment and said, "Let's talk about it." The county soldiers only listened to Shi Jingsun alone, and he didn't want me to owe him. You stay first, and when it is daybreak, you will say that I am waiting for him at home. ”

Li Yuanyang asked rhetorically: "Don't take the initiative to find him?" ”

Li Hu sneered and said: "He bowed to me, obviously he knew everything, and if he wanted to release water, he would release water, and he came to this hand, I just wanted to see what he wanted to do." ”

Tuli Niu also hurriedly said: "Then in case, he will also ......"

Shi Jingsun had the deeds of killing his subordinate officers in front of the county guard, the reason was that he did not allow others to get involved in the military camp, and Li Hu didn't believe it.

Li Hu said slowly: "I guess he is staring at me in private, knowing that I am recruiting people and training troops in private, doesn't he mean that Miao Baotian's people are looking for trouble?" Miao Baotian doesn't dare to mess with me now, and the people under him are jumping? You're all blindsided, maybe it's his hands and feet, and he asked me to go, just to get me back to my face and see how I reacted. This man is a hero. He's been touching our bottoms. ”

Seeing a few people will be skeptical.

Li Hu said: "I asked Liu Chang, he has no background, he has a big head soldier, he starts in the army, except for a brother, he is a black heart." He has no money, insufficient military spending, and is abducted and deceived everywhere, and he has always been looking for a backer. Miao Baotian arrived in the county seat, he never dared to clash head-on, in my opinion, he was afraid of Tian Qimin, and this time he came back, he had to blackmail me. ”
