Chapter 157: The smell of gunpowder
"It's nothing, we were just making a fuss just now, we didn't make a heavy hand at all, you don't have to watch it, let's go to dinner quickly!"
Li Yue had a panicked expression on his face, and his voice also had a sense of uneasiness.
This made Chen Lingyue believe even more in what the two of them had done together just now.
"Don't worry, I'm waiting for you here, I believe Sister Huan'er is the same!"
Chen Lingyue didn't stick to her own ideas, as if she was afraid that Li Yue would be more difficult to do.
It's just that his face is very unsightly, and he sits on the side and watches Li Yue wear clothes one after another.
If it was at this time in normal times, Chen Lingyue would have already stepped forward to help Li Yue dress and comb her hair, but at this moment, she was doing it very steadily.
Opposite Zhao Huan, the eyes of the two exchanged sparks with each other.
Li Yue, who was neatly dressed, saw the two daughters looking at each other with such a gunpowder smell, and suddenly had a cold sweat on his face.
"It's not early, let's go have breakfast first, after that, I believe that the people from the Wu Mansion will come to the door first."
Li Yue looked anxious, it seemed that the matter was very important, and Chen Lingyue at this time no longer looked at Zhao Huan.
"Okay, I see, is there anything else I need to prepare?"
Chen Lingyue seems to be very considerate and sensible, and she looks like a good wife who is very good at running a family.
Li Yue, who saw this scene, couldn't help but be relieved and smiled indifferently.
"No need, just be by my side, and deal with anything randomly!"
Li Yue's face was flat, but his voice was very gentle.
This made Zhao Huan, who had not spoken all the time, a little angry.
"Li Yue, is it important today? I also want to be by your side, just let me know if there is anything I can do. ”
Zhao Huan didn't have the angry expression just now, but looked very well-behaved.
And her performance made Chen Lingyue sneer when she saw it.
Li Yue saw the changes that the two women made to him instantly, and he immediately felt a chill in his heart.
"These two women, what are they for? Changing your face is faster than turning a book, my God, I really can't figure out a woman's heart. ”
Li Yue sighed in his heart, arranged everything for the two of them at the same time, and immediately took the two of them downstairs.
But it didn't matter if I went downstairs this time, I found that the people of the Wu family had been waiting outside the door for a long time.
The person who came was Wu Yuanjin, who made Li Yue jealous.
Seeing that it was this person, Li Yue immediately stopped.
"Lingyue, you go and give me an order, let Wu Yuanxiu dress decently for me, I want to see how the two brothers play each other."
Li Yue's expression was indifferent, and after explaining everything, he took Zhao Huan downstairs to greet Wu Yuanjin.
"Brother Wu, didn't yesterday's matter already be agreed, you sit in the position of the head of the family, and we will complete the transaction immediately, why are you so urgent to come over early in the morning?"
Li Yue asked with a puzzled expression.
"Brother Li, I went back yesterday and thought about it for a long time, and I felt that no matter whether the position of the head of the family was in place or not, I still had to get my hands on the medicinal materials for treating the plague first."
Although Wu Yuanjin's face was calm and unremarkable, the corners of his mouth were still twitching while speaking, and there were traces on his face that were covered with a powder cover, as if he had something on his body.
Li Yue saw all this quietly, but did not make any reaction.
Just smiled indifferently, walked to the table, and gently picked up the teacup to blow water and drink tea.
"Yesterday I was also in a trance, it should have been when I was seriously ill, but after taking the medicine, it was still relieved, and the pain and itching on my body disappeared today."
Li Yue was very indifferent, and while speaking, he rolled up his sleeves and let Wu Yuanjin check one or two.
Seeing Li Yue in such a state, Wu Yuanjin was also surprised, but there was no expression on his face, he looked very plain and casual, and sat quietly at the table after taking a look.
"It turns out that this medicine has such a miraculous effect, then Brother Li, let's make this transaction as soon as possible!"
Wu Yuanjin said indifferently.
"Brother Wu, if you didn't talk about the Wu family yesterday, can't you be the master alone? Why can you be the master again today, could it be that something has happened to the Wu family? ”
Li Yue asked worriedly.
"Nothing else, it's just that the plague has spread to Danyang City, and I must be prepared to prevent it from happening, otherwise the plague will spread into panic, and the civilians in the city will be in danger."
Wu Yuanjin's face was worried about the country and the people, which made Li Yue very moved when he saw it.
It's just that this kind of emotion is expressed on the face, but the heart is extremely happy.
"The surname is Wu, you are obviously poisoned by me, and you think you have the plague, so you came to beg me, you see how I knock you!"
Li Yue looked embarrassed, but he secretly calculated in his heart.
Seeing Li Yue's embarrassed expression, Wu Yuanjin's heart suddenly tightened, but his face was very calm, with a little bit of sorrow.
"Could it be that Brother Li has something difficult? Although, I'm going to try to help you out as much as I can. ”
Wu Yuanjin said with a solemn expression.
"Huainan Mansion is now in the process of collecting grain, Zhang Xianzhong has gathered an army of 100,000, and wants to go south to grab all the grain in Huguang and other places!"
Li Yue said hesitantly.
After hearing this, Wu Yuanjin looked puzzled and immediately stood up.
"This thief leader, he is really bold, even if he makes trouble in Xishan, he dares to go south to touch the land of Huguang, if he goes further east, won't he come directly to the southern capital?"
Wu Yuanjin's face was gloomy, he looked angry, and his voice was deliberately a little louder.
"Yes, Brother Wu, if Huguang and other places are invaded by the head of thieves, then no one will be protected!"
Li Yue said helplessly.
"Yes, this matter is more urgent, but I heard that the old man once said that he had already funded Lord Sun 200,000 taels of silver for him to use to fight the bandits."
Wu Yuanjin asked with a suddenly realized expression on his face, very puzzled.
"Master Sun has been gone for a long time, and there has been no news of him, and I don't know if he is going west or north."
Li Yue said helplessly.
As soon as these words came out, Wu Yuanjin showed a look of surprise, and then he also looked like he wanted to understand.
"Brother Li, when you say this, I'm a little afraid that Lord Sun will be able to go west, after all, the invasion of foreign races in the north is now tight, and it is possible to go north."
Wu Yuanjin said worriedly.
"Yes, if you go north, then Zhang Xianzhong in the west will take advantage of the situation to become bigger, and now I can't spare my hands to deal with it, Brother Wu, it's also very difficult for me to do."
Li Yue said with a look of embarrassment.
Hearing this, Wu Yuanjin couldn't help frowning.
I feel that although the two things Li Yue said are all in Huainan Mansion, there is no conflict.
The medicinal materials for the treatment of the plague must have been prepared in advance, and it is no accident that Zhang Xianzhong has appeared now.
Even if the two are related, it will not affect any transaction.
