Chapter 51: Stones
Blatantly sarcastic about others, Li Tie couldn't get over his face, his face turned red, and he said in a hard voice: "You said this, don't ask my Li family if you have something in the future." ”
Xiao Qingnan snorted coldly, he didn't measure his strength, and even the mud legs dared to threaten him, and he didn't look at how many catties and taels he had.
Old man Li handed him the silver and said in a rough voice: "From now on, my Li family will not owe you anything from the Xiao family!" ”
His eyes were staring at the bag of silver, and he was very distressed, and then forcibly looked away.
Xiao Qingnan handed it to Jiang Wei, Jiang Wei took a little silver, but found that something was not right, immediately opened it, opened it open, and opened the copper coin on the surface, the so-called silver was just a dirty stone, and said coldly: "Silver? ”
The people around also saw it, and immediately looked at Old Man Li with a clear look.
No wonder you can't give five taels of silver, it turns out that stones are used instead of silver.
The Li family is really lacking in morality!
Old man Li's eyes flashed with astonishment, and he turned his head to look at the pale-faced old woman, his heart was clear, and he was suddenly angry, "Who let you use stones as silver!" For only five taels of silver, my Li family can still afford it. The latter sentence was clearly addressed to everyone.
He stiffened his face and said, "Why don't you go and get the silver!" ”
Today, the Li family's face has been thrown to the pond.
Li Qi's family has always used a penny to break two pennies, it is a well-known pick in the village, and when he heard this, he simply lay on the ground and splashed, "Don't take it, it was my Li family's savings little by little, why should it be cheaper Xiao family!" ”
"Isn't it just ten years of ginseng, let Li Tie and a few of them go up the mountain to find it."
Zheng Langzhong couldn't help but speak: "In the woman's opinion, do you think ginseng is a wild vegetable? ”
"The old man has only picked a ginseng for five years after going up to the mountain to collect medicine for decades, not to mention that there are many fierce beasts in the deep mountains and old forests, and if you are not careful, you will lose your life."
"Could it be that the lives of the sons of your Li family are not worth five taels of silver?"
Li Qi is full of concern about the silver, how can he listen to Zheng Langzhong's kind advice, "Zheng Langzhong, don't think that I don't know that you have a good relationship with the Xiao family, and you want to partner with me for silver, but there is no door!" ”
Zheng Langzhong has been a doctor for decades, and he is worthy of the conscience of heaven and earth, Li Qi's words are simply an insult to his personality! said angrily: "The old man is waiting for your Li family to "return triumphantly", the old woman who doesn't know how good the sky is! ”
Li Qi's lips pursed, disapproving, even the brothers of the Li family felt that what his mother said made some sense.
The brothers of the Li family discussed in a whisper, and finally Li Tie said: "Yes, tomorrow my brothers will go to the mountains and forests to find it." ”
Xiao Qingnan sneered in his heart, but his face was not obvious, "It just so happens that my lady's body is weak, and ten years of ginseng supplementation will be completed." ”
"For five days, Lord Liu will be a witness for me."
When Zheng Langzhong heard this, he stared at Xiao Qingnan, whose face did not change.
Will? He really dared to say it!
Zheng Langzhong didn't know that Xiao Qingnan in front of him had lived two lives.
Xiao Qingnan held a lot of power in his previous life, and there were many people who wanted to tie up, and there were mountains of strange and valuable things, and he really couldn't look down on low-level ginseng for ten years.
Liu Quanzhong nodded, but he was very depressed.
finally understood why Xiao Qingnan thought that the salary was low, and the emotional family picked up a ginseng on the mountain could cover his salary for several months.
Seeing this, Li Qi's clan immediately got up, grinning his sparse teeth, and occasionally spit out some spittle, "Li Tie, your brothers, go to the mountains to find it, you are not allowed to go home until it gets dark." ”
Li Tie and the brothers nodded, turned around and left.
The Li family is considered to have been solved, Liu Quanzhong looked at the sluggish Li Qin clan on the ground, pondered for a long time, and looked distressed.
If you talk about today's events, the fault is not the daughter-in-law of the Xiao family.
It's just that she threw Li Qin's family in front of everyone, and the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty stipulate that anyone who does not respect their elders is guilty and sentenced to punishment.
In the past, the villagers would not report this kind of thing, after all, they also had to pay a certain amount of silver.
It's a real dilemma!
He was sure that if the Xiao family's daughter-in-law was sent to the yamen, Xiao Qingnan's iron fist was afraid that he would kill him.
I have to say that Liu Quanzhong is still very discerning.
After pondering for a while, he spoke: "First there was Li Qin's attempt to harm people, and then Jiang Wei dumped people, I saw that you two were fine, and this matter is over." ”
The villagers wanted to speak and stopped, Jiang Wei was really fine, but Li Qin's family was frightened, he was blind and couldn't see?
Of course, they can only ridicule this in their hearts.
No one refuted it, and the matter was over.
There is such a big movement by the river, and I don't see the people of the Li family come out to say something, is this afraid of the Xiao family?
The Li family is now the only one left, and the so-called son and daughter-in-law packed up their burdens and left as early as the night of Li Changming's accident, lest they be charged with murder if they are one step slower.
In the end, several women who were familiar with Li Qin's family sent Li Qin's family back to Li's family.
It didn't take long for only Xiao Qingnan and Jiang Wei to be left by the river.
Xiao Qing glanced at the riverside and half a basket of dirty clothes, and was not very relieved that Jiang Wei was alone by the river, so he simply took the mallet and washed the clothes.
After returning to Xiao's house, it was already half an hour later, Jiang Wei wiped the hemp rope hanging in the air in the courtyard with a clean handkerchief, and then dried the washed clothes.
Xiao Qingnan stared at the dilapidated grass house in front of him, and thought about it carefully, there were still more than forty taels of silver at home, although it was impossible to build a brick house, but it was enough to rebuild an adobe house.
"Lady, I'm going to build a room again."
"Enough silver?"
Jiang Wei had no opinion, and thought in her heart, if the silver was not enough, she would go hunting in the mountains.
"That's enough."
"That's not something you should worry about."
Xiao Qingnan's face was a little helpless, he had an illusion that Jiang Wei didn't see himself as a woman.
Jiang Wei stopped saying anything when she heard this, and dried her clothes with her hands and feet.
After talking to her, Xiao Qingnan went out to Xu's house, told Xu Qing about the house, and asked him to come over tomorrow to help, and Xu Qing directly agreed.
Xiao Qingnan instructed Xiao An, who was playing at Xu's house, to go home for lunch while watching the time.
Then I went to Jiang's house again and told Jiang Wuhan about it.
When Jiang Wuhan learned that they were going to build a house, he smiled from ear to ear, and starting a house was also a great joy in the village.
"Have you hired a mason?"
Xiao Qingnan said: "Not yet, I'll go to the town in the afternoon to find it." ”
The owner of Liuhe in the village is a mason, but he doesn't plan to look for the Liu family.
Jiang Wuhan didn't say anything when he heard this, and then thought of something: "Where do you live?" ”
"Build a makeshift thatched hut next to the house to take care of things."
"It's also done, so be it, Xiao An is small and has poor resistance, so he lives in a room with Jiang Mei at night."
There are not many houses at home, otherwise Jiang Wei and Xiao Qingnan will also live in Jiang's house.
Xiao Qingnan did not refuse, and responded directly, Xiao An died in his previous life because of the wind cold.
Although there was still more than a year before that time, many things had changed in this life, and he couldn't take risks.
