Chapter 170: Thick Skin

Chapter 170: Thick Skin

When the two went out, the food on the table outside had been placed, and it was still very rich, but there was no one in the house, the two of them carried the warm hot water kettle on the side of the stove, and went out to wash in the yard, and saw Lin Xiao and Xiaoyang boxing in the yard, the boxing was still taught to Xiaoyang by Li Yue, Xu Jinniang was watering the vegetable field, and looked at the two of them from time to time with a smile.

When Xu Jinniang saw the two of them coming out, she greeted with a smile, "Get up, hurry up and wash up and eat." ”

Xiaoyang hadn't seen Li Yun for a long time, and when he saw Li Yun coming back, he stopped his movements and happily ran over to call someone, "Brother-in-law, Xiaoyang misses you." ”

The corners of Li Yun's mouth twitched slightly and touched Xiaoyang's head, "Good." ”

Xiaoyang has been with Li Yun for a long time, and his sister told him again that his brother-in-law can't laugh, so he has long been used to his brother-in-law's appearance and is no longer afraid of his brother-in-law.

Xu Jinniang saw Xiaoyang circling around the buttocks of the two like a tail, and greeted with a smile, "Xiaoyang, go and boxing with Brother Lin first, and let your sister wash with your brother-in-law." ”

Although Xiao Yang was dissatisfied, he still let out an obedient sigh, went to Lin Xiao's side again, shook his little arms and legs, and followed Lin Xiao to start boxing in style.

After eating, Li Yun went down the mountain with Li Yue, the condition of the grandmother in Dalu Village was getting more and more serious, Li Yue agreed that Li Yun would take him to see his grandmother as soon as he came back, and the uncle's attitude seemed to have changed, and he would ask Li Yue from time to time, why Li Yun hadn't come back yet.

On the way down the mountain, Li Yue also told Li Yun about the situation at home, but the teahouse hadn't been there for a long time, and Li Yue felt that it was time to go over with Li Yun to have a look.

When Li Yun hadn't come back a few days ago, Li Yue felt that she was tired of doing anything, but now that Li Yun came back, she seemed to be full of expectations for life, and the whole person was full of energy.

On the way, I met the villagers in the village, and when I saw Li Yun, I would greet him, "I haven't seen Li Yun for so long, why are everyone tanned." ”

Li Yun would also nod politely, everyone had long been accustomed to Li Yun's way of greeting each other, and they didn't feel anything wrong.

When they arrived at Dalu Village, the two pushed open the courtyard door and entered, and saw that the old lady was still being carried out and sat in the courtyard to bask in the sun.

Hearing the movement at the door, the old lady squinted her eyes and looked at the door, and when she saw the two people at the door, she babbled a little excitedly, but she didn't say a complete sentence for a long time, but she left a lot of saliva.

Wu, who was taking care of the old lady on the side, hurriedly wiped the old lady, then stood up and gave up his position, "Childe is back?" Why are all people tanned? Still thin? ”

Li Yue smiled and said for Li Yun, "I've been in a hurry, and I've got a tan." ”

After speaking, he pulled Li Yun over to the old lady's side, and said with a smile, "Grandma, we came to see you, how are you doing these two days?" ”

The old lady excitedly wanted to raise her trembling hand, Li Yue hurriedly grabbed the old lady's hand, Li Yun also learned to be obedient this time, sat down next to Li Yue, also reached over, covered Li Yue's hand, and then held the old lady's hand together, and called out, "Grandma, I see you are here." ”

The old lady tugged at the corners of her mouth, there were too many old ladies in Mingyue, and she knew that the old lady wanted to laugh like this, but the muscles on her face were no longer under her control.

Now the old lady only babbles when she is excited, and she usually doesn't do this, probably because she knows that even if she wants to speak, she can't say it, and she will keep saliva, so she just gave up.

So usually when Li Yue came to see the old lady, Li Yue was talking alone, telling some jokes and stories to the old lady, and the old lady would slowly fall asleep after a while.

It's just that today it is estimated that because of seeing Li Yun, the old lady seems to be very excited, and she is not a little sleepy, staring at Li Yun with slanted eyes for a while, and staring at Li Yue for a while.

Li Yun didn't see his cousin Li Lan after coming back for a while, and he and his uncle Li Qiang, so he asked Wu, who was pouring tea for the two of them, "Aren't your uncle and Lan'er there?" ”

Wu responded, "When I went to the town, the business of the dry goods store was not very good, and the old lady at home needed someone to accompany her at any time, so Brother Li was ready to sell the shop." ”

Li Yun frowned slightly when he heard this, and asked, "Does that uncle have other plans?" ”

Wu shook his head, "I don't know about this, Childe should wait for Brother Li to come back and ask in person." ”

Li Yun nodded at Wu, then turned his head to listen to Li Yue tell her grandmother a story.

Mrs. Li didn't fall asleep until ten o'clock in the afternoon, and Wu has been busy all the time, but the old lady now has to have someone to take care of her when she eats and drinks Lazar, and it is difficult for Wu to be busy.

Originally, the Wu family asked the two of them to stay for lunch, but Li Yue refused, the Wu family was already busy, and she had to let her cook lunch for herself and Li Yun, it was too hard for the Wu family, so the two got up and left.

On the way back, Li Yue asked, "By the way, have you seen my fourth uncle at Yanmen Pass?" ”

Li Yun shook his head, "I didn't see anyone, but I asked about the news, the fourth uncle was indeed in Yanmen Pass, because he was born with divine power, he made meritorious contributions as soon as he went, and he was literate and hyphenated, and now he is already a small captain, when I went, he just went out to do a patrol mission, so I didn't see it." ”

Hearing the news of the fourth uncle, Li Yue was also very excited, "That's good, then did I leave the letter for the fourth uncle?" ”

Li Yun responded, "Stay, and he will definitely see it when he comes back." ”

Li Yue remembered the injuries on Li Yun's body and asked, "How did you get injured?" Your business has been discovered? ”

Thinking of this, Li Yun gritted his teeth a little, and was a little helpless, Li Yun didn't intend to hide it from Li Yue, shook his head at Li Yue, and said, "Our matter was not discovered, but Zhou Huaijin's identity and whereabouts were leaked, so as soon as we approached the border, we were chased and killed." ”

Li Yue listened to Li Yun's words, and said with a little analysis, "So these people assassinated Zhou Huaijin?" You were shot while lying down? ”

Li Yun was a little puzzled, and asked curiously, "What is it to be shot while lying down?" ”

Li Yue explained for Li Yun, "The meaning of inexplicable and wonderful encounters with unwarranted disasters, Xianggong, I think you and Zhou Huaijin are a little conflicting, there is nothing good to meet him, don't do things with him in the future." ”

Listening to Li Yue's resentful words, Li Yun hooked the corners of his mouth and said, "It's not about the matchmaker, it's not about the matchmaker, it's also an accident this time, and it won't be in the future." ”

Li Yue snorted coldly, and once again hated Zhou Huaijin in her heart.

Li Yun changed the topic at this time, "I'm afraid this border is about to be unstable." ”

Li Yue said in surprise, "There's a movement on Xianbei's side?" ”

Li Yun nodded and responded, "According to the news from the spies over there at Yanmen Pass, it is said that a large-scale famine has begun on the Xianbei side, and the leaders of the tribe have begun to deploy a large number of troops, and the number has reached as many as 300,000. ”

Li Yue listened to Li Yun's words and responded, "No wonder we are in a hurry to transport grain out, and the more soldiers we have in the tun, the more I am afraid that there will be a shortage of food and grass." ”

Li Yun sighed, "I'm worried that the Hongji granary has already transported a lot of grain outside......"

Listening to Li Yun's words, Li Yue frowned, "It's very likely, I'm afraid that I have made sufficient preparations, otherwise I won't send troops to the border, and then our border will be dangerous." ”

Li Yun, who listened to it, said, "Don't worry, the Yanjing Imperial Court has already had a countermeasure and has begun to secretly transfer troops to the border, and Xianbei is not so easy to succeed." ”

Listening to Li Yun's words, Li Yue also breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, if there is a war, it will only be the common people who will suffer, plus the famine in Xianbei, if it enters the pass, the people around here are afraid that it will be over." ”

Li Yun took Li Yue's hand on the side and said, "Don't worry, even if there is a war, there is still me, and I will definitely protect you." ”

Li Yun didn't know that his promise at this time would eventually be broken because of the change in the situation.

The two returned to Waishan Village, and were about to go to the old mansion of the Ming family to see the uncle and them, but they didn't want to meet the Liu family from Lao Zhao on the way, and when they saw Li Yun and Li Yue, they greeted with a flattering smile, "Where are Yue'er and Ah Yun going?" ”

Li Yue didn't bother to take care of this person, she hated it so much last time, and she actually had her face up, and she was not small, but seeing that Liu was still unwilling, she was ready to talk to herself, so Li Yue said with cold eyes, "What, auntie, is this a scar on her body, is it okay, and her skin is itchy and wants Yue'er to scratch it for you?" ”

That Liu was originally on the road, Li Yue would definitely not do anything to her with her face, so she dared to lick her face and come forward to say hello, looking at Li Yue's cold eyes at this time, listening to Li Yue's threatening words, where did she still think that Li Yue would not do anything to her with her face, and shouted in her mouth, "You are busy, I will go first." His feet were running as fast as if they were smeared with oil.

Li Yue and Li Yun entered the courtyard of the Ming family, and saw the eldest brother Mingyao and the uncle sitting in the courtyard with a very bad face, and when they saw Li Yun coming, they showed a smile and beckoned the two to sit down in the courtyard, and Mingyao asked, "When did the brother-in-law come back?" ”

Li Yun should arrive, "Last night." ”

Li Yue was curious about what the Liu family was doing, so she asked, "Big brother, what is the eldest aunt doing here?" ”

Mingyao's face darkened again, "Come and pick us up to the new house." ”

Li Yue didn't pay attention to the movements of the new mansion recently, thinking that last time she asked the young master of the Xu family to help go to the new mansion to make trouble and drive the Liu family away, didn't she go?

So Li Yue asked, "Did the Xu family go to the new house to make trouble?" ”

When Mingyao was in the county seat, he also heard Li Yue mention it, Mingyao didn't object, it was his mother who made him feel cold, and he left with the only bit of money in the family regardless of a little friendship, and then almost killed his father.

Li Yue, who listened, asked, and Ming Yao said, "I went to make trouble, but it didn't seem to be useful, and I didn't know where my grandmother got the confidence, so I felt that the Xu family didn't dare to touch them, so they just rolled around and drove people out of the Ming house." ”

Li Yue sneered, "Is it a long skill?" ”

Boss Ming on the side listened to the conversation between the two, and finally said, "After all, it's grandma......"

I didn't want to be interrupted by Ming Yao's red eyes as soon as he spoke, "Is there such a grandmother?" swept his grandson and granddaughter out of the house, wishing that his son would die......"

Boss Ming on the side also had red eyes, seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Li Yue hurriedly changed the topic, "It's not a matter for you to stay here all the time, they (she) have been making trouble for three days, and you are also having a restless life, I will go to the county with Li Yun to see if we can find something to do for the uncle and eldest brother, so as not to stay at home and watch upset." ”

Boss Ming said loudly, "But this place? ”

Mingyue responded, "Just take some time to come back and do it when the farm is busy, isn't there still a big aunt, since you are back, you will definitely do the work." ”

Mingyao is looking forward to it, he saw that the third uncle's barbecue restaurant business was so good, he was already a little eager to try, and he also wanted to do a small business or something to make money, but he didn't have the capital, if he could find something to do in the county town and save some capital, he would be able to do some small business, it would definitely be better than planting that little land at home, and he didn't have to be annoyed by seeing people who didn't want to see him from time to time.

Before Boss Ming could speak, Ming Yao spoke, "When do you go to the county seat, I'll go with you to have a look, and by the way, see how the third uncle and them are." ”

Li Yue remembered that Li Yun's injuries were not yet healed, so she said, "In two days, I'll call you then." ”

I haven't seen Minghui and Mingkang since I came in, Li Yue asked curiously, "Why didn't you see those two boys?" Out in the wild? ”

She remembered that Minghui Mingkang, the two boys, had been a lot sensible since something happened to the Ming family, and rarely went out to follow a group of children all over the mountains.

I listened to Mingyao and said, "I'm worried that the two people on the third uncle's side can't be busy, and Mingkang is clamoring to see his father, two days ago, Uncle Liu was going to the county seat, so I asked Uncle Liu to take the two to the county seat, and I can also help the third uncle and them." ”

It was already noon, Ming Yao said to go to the kitchen to cook, Li Yue thought that it was already noon, and she would have to go to her godfather's house later, so she should go down and followed Ming Yao to the kitchen to help.

After lunch, the two walked out of the gate of the old mansion, Li Yun thought they were going back, but Li Yue didn't want Li Yue to pull Li Yun and said, "Let's go to Godfather's house again, grab some medicine for you, and take a look at Godmother by the way." ”

Li Yun said helplessly, "I really don't need to grab medicine, what kind of medicine do you need to grab when this injury is healed." ”

Li Yue insisted, "No, I've seen your wounds, and it's red and swollen, but you can't let it become inflamed, you have to grab some anti-inflammatory medicine." ”

Seeing Li Yue's insistent look, Li Yun had to silently follow Li Yue and go to Zhang Langzhong's house together.
