Chapter 486: Deliberately Showing Favor

Old man Zhou looked embarrassed, Zhao Lao Lai came at him, it was he who affected the entire village, "General Li, it's my fault, if I don't know Zhao Lao Lai, maybe he won't come to Jixiang Town." ”

Li Yuanqing smiled, his voice was gentle, he shook his head and said: "Even if there is no you, the people of Jixiang Village and Jixiang Town are rich, and they will inevitably become the objects of attention of these people, and they will not escape." The poor get rich, and many may not be able to keep this wealth. ”

When Old Man Zhou heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he didn't blame him, "General Li, please come inside." ”

Li Yuanqing handed the basket to the third widow, and came here on purpose today, "Third aunt, your basket is a tonic for Yingniang, suitable for pregnant women, you are free, stew it for her to eat." ”

Hearing this, the third widow and the old man Zhou were all stunned, and their faces were happy, "Yuan Qing, thank you, I don't blame Yingniang." ”

Li Yuanqing smiled, waved his hand and said, "Third aunt, don't say that." Anyway, Yingniang is my sister. In the past, she was ignorant, it was instigated by her parents, and she did not discipline her properly. Now the third aunt, you discipline her, I heard Pan'er say that Yingniang is a lot sensible. Now she is living a good life with her brother-in-law, and with children, she can grow up. ”

The three widows nodded again and again, their eyebrows and smiled, they didn't expect to wait for this day so quickly, "Yes, yes, Yuanqing, Pan'er is right, Yingniang is indeed sensible." Sit in the house, and you can talk to Yingniang too. ”

Li Yuanqing waved his hand and put the things down, "No need, she just has a good life." It's dark, and I have to go back to dinner. ”

Old man Zhou still wanted to keep it, but he was also rejected by Li Yuanqing.

Seeing Li Yuanqing leaving, Old Man Zhou and the three widows looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes.

The three widows hurriedly lifted the lid on the basket, and there was actually half a basket of high-quality bird's nest and fish maw, all of which were fine things.

"This basket is precious, and you can't buy it back without a hundred taels of silver." The third widow smiled and said, "Let's give a Boxing gift, although we give a lot, but people come back and double." ”

Old man Zhou nodded and smiled, "Yes, the festival is still a trivial matter, the key is the attitude." ”

"Yes, when Yuan Qing came back last year, he didn't wait to see Yingniang, but he still gave a dowry of twenty taels of silver." The third widow nodded, "Now you look at it again, and I sent supplements to Yingniang, it can be seen that I have this sister in my heart, and I also call the third brother my brother-in-law." Your old Zhou family can climb the relatives of the three rank officials, and the ancestral tomb can be regarded as smoking. ”

Old man Zhou thought so, looked at the eyes of the three widows, full of approval, "Yes, you are the great hero of our family." ”

The third widow was proud, "Of course, I live with you, and of course I hope to get along with you as much as possible." This Yuan youth is gentle, he is a third-grade official, and he will become a first-grade official in the future, which is just around the corner. Your Zhou family has a lot of days, but I just looked at Yuan Qing's gaze at you, and the meaning was a little unclear. ”

Old man Zhou is such a shrewd person, how could he not feel it?

"Zhao Laolai must have told Yuan Qing about my illegal work." Old man Zhou frowned, "I was worried before, and it was also for this." ”

The third widow thought for a while, slapped the table, then squinted her eyes, and said coldly: "Old Zhou, since Li Yuanqing already knows, but he doesn't pick it out, he must already have thoughts about you." Yuan Qing probably wants you to take the initiative to say it like before, and make meritorious contributions, and the previous things may be written off. ”

Old man Zhou hesitated, sat down, it was very likely that he would go to prison, maybe he would die.

The three widows don't care so much, as long as she can get the kindness of Li Yuanqing and Liu Pan'er, as for Old Man Zhou, if he can survive, it is fate, and if he can't survive, he deserves it.

"In charge, you see that Yuan Qing values Yingniang and the third child, and also values the child in Yingniang's belly. With such an uncle, what are you worried about? Maybe the information you provide can make Yuan Qing make meritorious contributions. ”

Old man Zhou thought about it carefully and felt that what the three widows said made some sense.

Li Yuanqing commanded all the troops in Jiangnan Province, so he naturally paid a lot of attention to King Chen of Xunyang Mansion, and there would inevitably be intersections.

In case King Chen can't get used to Li Yuanqing and wants to frame Li Yuanqing, the Zhou family will have one less good relative.

For the sake of his son and grandson, Old Man Zhou felt that he could take risks.

After all, he didn't say it, but with the arrest of Zhao Laolai, he was fine, and it would reach the ears of several other people.

When the time comes, those people will still doubt him, and it is very likely that they will also kill people.

In this case, it is really better to strike first and take refuge in Li Yuanqing.

If the information he provides is useful, he can get Li Yuanqing's asylum.

"Okay, I'll tell Yuan Qing now." Old man Zhou should go down, and he will chase after him.

The third widow was very happy when she saw that Old Man Zhou was loose, and nodded, "At this time and that time in charge, we have to see the situation clearly." The ready-made thighs are right in front of us, and we must hold them. ”

"As for the things you did before, anyway, you are old, for the sake of relatives, Yuan Qing will not be too observant."

Hearing this, Old Man Zhou finally made up his mind, and then went back to the house to get something.

At this time, there were some people in the tavern, there were too many people, and it was inconvenient for Old Man Zhou to leave, so he could only greet the guests before leaving.

Let's say that after Li Yuanqing returned home, he saw his little daughter Li Nan pouting and looking unhappy.

Li Yuanqing wanted to hug Li Nan, but was also avoided by his youngest daughter Li Nan, "Ouch, what's wrong with my little baby Anan?" ”

Li Xiaobao was not happy either, but his performance was more stable.

"Of course, it's because my father made a mistake, and he was actually good to the bad guys, so he took a basket of good things and gave them to the bad guys while his mother didn't pay attention."

Hearing this, Li Yuanqing couldn't cry or laugh.

Although Liu Pan'er was not at home when he took the things, he had already told Liu Panpan before.

"Your mother knows everything at home. I told your mother before, and your mother agreed. ”

Li Nan's mouth was about to hang the oil bottle, chattering endlessly.

"Even if my mother agreed, I wouldn't be happy. My aunt was so bad, she didn't treat us well before. On the way to escape the famine, I still remember that she robbed me of food and scolded me. ”

Li Xiaobao nodded, "Daddy wasn't there at the time, of course I don't know how scared and hungry we are, you are so good to bad guys." ”

Liu Paner and Liu couldn't help but snicker when they heard a pair of children's accusations against Li Yuanqing.

Liu whispered: "Pan'er, you children are ripe!" ”

Liu Pan'er nodded, "We are all good children, we have experienced so much together, we can share hardships and hardships, and we can also share prosperity." ”

Liu Shi also felt curious and asked, "Although I know that you are kind-hearted, is it necessary to be so good to Yingniang?" ”

Liu Pan'er lowered her voice and whispered: "I can't tell Sister Xiaohua specifically, but you remember, Yuanqing has a place to use Old Man Zhou." If you want to make Old Man Zhou die, of course, you have to let Old Man Zhou see the benefits and be willing to give up, it is worth working hard. ”
