For dinner, a pig's head, ten catties of pork belly and several catties of pig's blood were all eaten, and there was nothing left of five buckets of millet porridge and steamed cakes.

It only takes a quarter of an hour or so to eat everything.

The last drop of soup in the basin on the table was dipped in a child holding a cake.

Doctor Zhao sat there, patting his bulging belly, and said with a wry smile, "I didn't know what kind of demon I was like just now, I ate desperately, I don't remember anything, and I don't know how much I ate, oh my God, it's no different from the reincarnation of a starving ghost, I've lived half my life, it's a shame." ”

Yang next to him stroked his belly like big eyes, "Brother, don't be ashamed, this meal is lively and rich, and my old Yang is the same." ”

"Hahaha."

Guo Biao is a person who can eat, and his belly is also big, and he also feels panicked at this time, "It's to blame, it's just that this dish made by San Lang is too delicious, especially this pig's head meat, I think I used to kill pigs, and this pig's head is not less eaten, but I never thought that the pig's head could be so delicious." If I had this skill, how could I use it so hard to kill pigs and sell meat, I could just open a cooked food shop that made pig's head meat, buy pig's head every day and sell it myself, and I could just lie down and make money. ”

Some people also say that the pig blood tofu made by Li Xiao is also delicious.

Everyone was full and fed, but they were all satisfied.

In these years, it is really rare to be able to let go of the stomach and eat a meal, and it is not to eat porridge to eat, but to be able to eat meat and yellow flour cakes to eat, but it is a rare thing for many Zhuang people in their lives.

Everyone was full of food and drink, and they all felt that Li Sanlang was really good, and sighed that Li Sanlang was back, and life might be really better in the future, follow Li Sanlang, and don't worry about it in the future.

"Let's go for a while when everyone is full, eat and eat, don't get stomach pain." Doctor Zhao reminded everyone, and then turned to Li Xiao and said, "San Lang, accompany me for a walk outside." ”

Li Xiao knew that he must have something to say to himself, so he smiled and nodded.

The men were still praising the rare food in the house just now, and Li Xiao helped Dr. Zhao out of the door.

I just had a full meal, and I was full of fever, but I was not afraid of the cold wind outside the house.

"Saburo seems to have had a hard time in the past few years." Doctor Zhao opened his mouth.

Li Xiao immediately replied, "After leaving Lanxi, I went directly to Shangluo, and after leaving Wuguan, I first went to Shannan, and then to Jiangling, and in the next few years, I traveled all the way along the south of the Great River, walked a lot, went to many places, and experienced a lot. ”

This can be regarded as a simple explanation of his experience in the past five years to Dr. Zhao.

This is not a fabrication, in fact, that Li Xiao has indeed come over like this in the past five years, when he left home, Li Dashan also prepared a lot of entanglements for his son, all of which were some gold and silver hard currency, so he has not been short of money in recent years, he has not worried about eating and drinking, and he has traveled for five years, but it is a real travel.

It's just that his father asked him not to go home for the time being, and then he wanted to make a name for himself and then go home, so he never went back.

As for how many years his parents have been dead, and the family has suffered great changes, he doesn't know it, and it is also because the traffic information is extremely inconvenient in this era, Li Xiao is traveling outside, and the location is uncertain, and the Li family can't contact him.

"It's been a few years, why don't you send a letter home?" Lao Zhao asked a little accusatory. If Li Xiao had sent a letter back, the Li family would not have mistakenly thought that he was dead because of that jade pendant.

Li Xiao laughed bitterly.

In fact, there is also a secret here, more than a year after Li Xiao left the customs, he did meet robbers in Jingzhou, and he almost died after that encounter.

Although he didn't die, he was captured, but the gang of thieves wanted to keep him because they saw that Li Xiaochang was tall and had some martial arts, and he could ride a horse and shoot an arrow and a sword.

Although Li Xiao has always refused, he was also left on the mountain for a period of time, and was coerced down the mountain to rob several times, and later this group of thieves was exterminated by the official army, Li Xiao fled in the chaos, but he did not dare to contact his family again, afraid that his experience would be known to the government and implicate the Li family.

Who would have thought that under the coincidence of karma, a jade pendant would lead to so many things.

"I should have come back sooner."

Li Xiaodao.

"Yes, it was completely different when I came back a few years ago, and now the Li family has nothing. There is only this ancestral grave field left, but he still owes a lot of debt to Zhang Papi's family. ”

"Uncle Zhao, tell me in detail about the situation at home, how our family has been deceived by the Zhang family in the past few years, how we have been defeated, and how much money does the family still owe to the Zhang family now?"

Doctor Zhao sighed, when he said this, his heart was heavy, it was like a mountain pressing on his body. Before Li Xiao came back, he felt that there was no hope of breaking free at all, and he already had plans to escape with Li Xiao and Zhao Wan, but now that Li Xiao was back, he saw a glimmer of hope again.

1510, Lao Zhao recounted in detail how the Zhang family cheated and calculated the Li family step by step over the years.

"Do you still owe the Zhang family 800 yuan?" After listening to this, Li Xiao behaved very calmly.

The Zhang family made every calculation against the Li family, and exhausted all kinds of means, especially after the death of Li Dashanren, they were pressed step by step.

But he had expected this.

"Yes, all the properties of the Li family have been cheated, your family's thousands of acres of fertile land, as well as the five shops on Lanxi Street, and a pharmacy in Lantian County, are all gone, and now they still owe the Zhang family 800 guan, 800 guan."

Eight hundred yuan is a lot, and the land that is almost in the past few hundred dollars is only a few hundred dollars.

In the past, the Li family was known as the richest man in Lanxi, but the family property was only about 1,000 acres of land, plus a few shops.

"Those shops are the ancestral business of your Li family for generations, especially the pharmacy in the county and the pharmacy on Lanxi Street, which is a good business to accumulate wealth and make money.

The Li family was counted by Zhangjiakeng's industry, and it is estimated that there are thousands of yuan, not counting the 800 yuan that is owed now.

Thousands of industries, in a township, is indeed a lot of money.

Eight hundred debts, the people who can be suppressed are desperate.

"Zhang Papi's debts, that's usurious debts, and they are profitable."

Two years ago, the debt of 800 yuan was actually less than 100 yuan, and it has already rolled to a high of 800 yuan in more than two years.

If you roll down like this, it will only roll higher and higher, and the Li family can't afford it at all, and the final result is naturally that even the ancestral graveyard will become the Zhang family, and even Li Zhen and Zhao Wan will have to become Zhang Chao's concubines.

"It's only eight hundred, don't worry, I can solve it."

"Eight hundred!" Mr. Zhao was amazed by Li Xiao's words. Li Xiao came back this time, although he looked quite capable, and he could still take out cucumbers to sell in the winter, but he only made two times at a time, and he hadn't lost the capital.

Besides, how can such a business be done all the time.

"Don't worry, Uncle Zhao, if the Zhang family takes our Li family, I will let them return it all, and those who eat us will all have to vomit."

"You can't fight with them, they have people in both black and white."

"Don't worry, I won't come hard, Uncle Zhao, you are optimistic, it won't be long before I can take everyone back to Li Zhuang Compound!"
