Chapter 226: Military Service
Fang Qi and Li Qiusui talked together, and the idle servants, including Songyuan Songyi, were all asked to stay in the distance, and the two tacitly didn't want to make any extraneous branches, so they deliberately lowered their voices.
Li Qiusui raised his voice and called for people to come and pick the fruits, and five or six people came in Hulala, and the dates on the jujube tree were quickly picked.
Knowing that Fang Qi would leave for Beijing in the near future, Li Qiusui was very unhappy that people did not take the opportunity to open their mouths, and their villainous hearts.
There is also the matter of her second brother joining the army, looking at Fang Qi, she is very familiar with Yong'an Hou.
Ready-made opportunities to climb relationships, and it would be foolish to miss it.
With a clear purpose, Li Qiusui seemed very attentive, and packed up a lot of fruits that were shelf-stable, all of which were selected in advance, kept for his family to eat, or given away, and let them be brought back together.
"Fang Gongzi returned to Beijing, and it is inconvenient for us to send him off in person. The countrymen don't have any good things to get their hands on, so pick more fresh fruits and keep them for the tooth sacrifice on the road to the son. ”
Li Qiusui hurriedly prepared more than ten baskets of fruits, unceremoniously asked Songyuan Songyi to help carry them, and intimately instructed his own mule cart to make a special trip to send it.
The girl in front of her is just a little girl in her early tens, in the sunshine, her face is childish, and she even has a little baby fat.
Fang Qi closed his eyes, how could he not guess Li Qiusui's careful thoughts, employing people in front and not in the back, the two faces in front and back can be said to be clearly revealed.
He barely let out a chuckle, raised his hand to cover the sunlight above his head, and sighed softly, "Thank you, Miss Li." However, no matter how much fruit there is, there will always be a time when it will be eaten, and when the time comes, I am afraid that the fruit next to it will not be able to enter the mouth again. ”
The tail note is drawn long.
The corners of Li Qiusui's eyebrows jumped, and he intuitively felt that today's Fang Gongzi was weird, very different from the past.
Her fruits taste good, and they have already been sold to the capital, and if you want to eat them, it is a matter of spending some silver. Of course, it's expensive. But according to Fang Qi's identity, should it be that little money?
However, when it comes to this, since he intends to have a good relationship with others, Li Qiusui simply took care of it and said happily: "Childe is worried, what's so difficult about this?" When the time comes, if you want to eat the fruit, you will write a letter, and there are countless merchants in Linshan County who come and go to the capital, and when the time comes, find someone to bring some. ”
Fang Qi seemed to be satisfied this time and let out a soft "um".
The autumn sun tilted on him, and his eyes looked bright and clear, how could he still have the appearance of a philistine who bargained for a few fruits before.
Li Qiusui frowned and turned his head.
……
Finally sent off the plague god, Li Qiusui returned to the front hall.
At this time, Li Changshan had already sent people back, and Li Changlei was still kneeling in front of his father.
I heard Li Changshan ask Li Changlei, "Changlei, why don't you discuss the family first about such a big matter?" There is also what Jiang Xianling said, what happened to Yong'an Hou in front of him? Haven't you been going to Fucheng with Sui Sui for more than ten days, when did you get your name in front of Yong'an? Today, it's strange to say, who is the owner of the Yu Village? It seems that Sui Sui and Chang Lei are familiar with others, and they even come to visit our father......"
Li Qiusui chuckled in his heart, hurriedly walked a few steps, and raised his voice to try to divert the topic, "Big brother, everyone has been sent away?" ”
"Hmm. Is Fang Gongzi gone? Li Changshan sent people back and saw Li Qiusui picking dates, and before, it was this girl who repeatedly ordered people not to pick them.
"Let's go, I said I'll go back to the capital in two days."
Li Changshan suddenly said, this is no wonder, and said how to pick all the dates and give them away, "What day is it?" No, I'll take the time to deliver it. ”
"I didn't say what day it was, maybe people didn't want people to know at all, and they sent so many fruits left and right, which can be regarded as fulfilling our family's intentions."
With Li Qiusui gagging inside, the truth has changed.
According to Li Qiusui's words, it was Li Changlei who first got acquainted with Yufeng.
The two young people had similar interests and sympathized with each other, and soon became friends who talked about everything. Li Sanzhu had an accident, Yufeng was very righteous, saw the distress of his friends, and used the power of his family to find out the whereabouts of the bandits. As soon as the two of them combined, they persuaded Li Qiusui to take cover, and went to the bandits' den single-handedly, turning the world upside down. The bandits were pursued all the way to the border by them, regrouped, and planned to do a big job, so as to stay in the border and develop their forces. It's a special coincidence that the few houses they robbed and smuggled salt and iron were all taboo materials, and they had long been stared at by the border guards stationed at the border.
The two teenagers cooperated with the border guards, effortlessly, seized the stolen goods on the spot, arrested the murderers, and pulled out the merchants suspected of treason, so they made great contributions.
The Li family looked at each other, and after listening to the brother and sister singing and harmonizing like a storyteller.
After a long time, Li Changshan asked out loud: "Just because of this, Chang Lei and what Yufeng became Xiaoqi?" ”
Li Changlei nodded subconsciously and glanced at Li Qiusui.
Li Qiusui's face was not red, and he smiled without panting: "It should be, right?" At that time, I was still in Fucheng, and my second brother told me the same thing later. With such a big credit, it is more than enough to be a small flag. The owner of Yuzhuang personally led his son to the door this time, and when he came, he wanted to come to visit our father; Second, I also want to talk about my future plans. There is also that medicine bag, I heard that people helped find out the whereabouts of the murderer, so I specially matched it, thank them. ”
The whole thing, so to speak, is seamless.
The Li family still remembered Li Changlei's entry into the army, and no one paid attention to the truth of Li Qiusui's words.
But there is also Li Changlei, who is dumbfounded.
If he hadn't been personally involved in the whole story, he would have almost believed it.
Li Qiusui blinked, not at all worried that her second brother would betray her.
When Li Changlei joined the army, the Li family's emotions at this time were not as intense as before.
Li Sanzhu sighed, "Changlei, have you thought about it?" There is no shortage of food and drink in our family now, and if you don't like to study, stay at home and work with me with your eldest brother to tending to crops and fruit trees. As for the fruit grove in the back mountain, it is enough for your brothers and sisters to be rich and safe. ”
"You are not young anymore, and you also said that when your eldest brother gets married, it is time for Zhang Luo to find you a daughter-in-law. When you went to the place where you wanted to die, didn't you make me and your father suspense day and night? So, how is it good? You say, there is no shortage of food and drink, what are you trying to do? As soon as Liu spoke, he began to wipe his tears again.
She can't figure it out, there is no shortage of food and drink, and the family lives a stable life together, why is it so difficult?
Li Changlei kneeled to Liu's side, buried his face in his mother's knees, and choked up: "Mother, it's Changlei who is not filial, he doesn't have Chang'an who can read, and he doesn't have the calmness and patience of his eldest brother, but he has untimely ambitions, and he wants to go outside to see the world." It's unfilial piety, please fulfill it with your father. ”
Li Qiusui turned his face and forced the tears that came out of his eyes back into his eyes.
The second brother's remarks, from beginning to end, did not mention the words of protecting the family and protecting the family. only said his selfishness, but all the fathers and mothers who love their children have no way to refute it.
Her older brothers have also grown up and know how to speak and achieve their own goals.
She may have a way to erase her second brother's military status.
But on what basis can she decide the fate of others wantonly and wishfully?
It was her own brother who was a compatriot.
Li Qiusui didn't continue to listen, and left without saying a word.
The news of Li Changlei's enlistment soon spread in Lijia Village, and within a few days, the official office also came down to levy military service, and the small mountain village, which was usually peaceful, suddenly boiled over.
