Chapter 28 If you can save someone's life, why not lose some face?
"Hey."
"Li Shusheng, this world is like this, how can everything be beautiful and satisfying? If something unsatisfactory happens, you still have to get eight out of ten. Nine Wow ......"
Li Yuanjing slept until noon, beckoned the eldest girl to come over, and accompanied Yu Niang to adapt in this house where she had just died.
He himself came to the autumn tax collection side to observe everyone's reaction.
Maybe Li Yuanjing's performances last night were more real, and the news had already spread at this time, and it was the official who sent Ma Ye, who came over to pat Li Yuanjing's shoulder and comfort Li Yuanjing.
"Thank you Ma Ye for your enlightenment."
Li Yuanjing arched his hand to Ma Ye and smiled bitterly:
"Master Ma, although most of my previous silver was robbed by Hou Wu's thousand-knife killer, there are still some of them, so I won't be unable to get by."
"Besides, a man's husband, I am born to be useful, and my daughter will come back when she is gone. How can you be defeated by such a small thing? ”
"God, I am born to be useful, and my daughter will come back when I am gone?"
Ma Ye has seen the world, Mu Ran was shocked when he heard Li Yuanjing sigh and started to write a poem.
hurriedly gave Li Yuanjing a thumbs up and praised:
"Li Shusheng, you really deserve to be a scholar, you are indeed talented! My old horse believes that this little thing will never break you. In the future, you will definitely have a great future! ”
Ma Ye may have been really shocked by Li Yuanjing's poem, and they all used honorifics for Li Yuanjing.
Li Yuanjing was also a little confused, he didn't expect such an unexpected joy.
But Ma Ye, an old fritter, was willing to be close to him, Li Yuanjing would not refuse, and immediately began to consult Ma Ye about the price of textiles around Fengcheng County.
Originally, Li Yuanjing wanted to create a community of interests in Quanzi Village, but at this time, there was the shadow of bandits behind him, and Li Yuanjing naturally wanted to speed up.
The main reason is that the geographical environment of Quanzi Village is too poor......
In a short time, Li Yuanjing wanted to pull everyone onto his big ship, and there was nothing else except the textile industry.
Ma Ye was bent on currying favor with Li Yuanjing at this time, so he naturally knew everything he knew about Li Yuanjing, and he said everything.
Soon.
Li Yuanjing has a brief overview of the textile industry in the entire Fengcheng County, including the surrounding areas.
But.
Coming from later generations, Li Yuanjing understands better that if he has not investigated, he has no right to speak.
With his financial resources at this time, he can start the textile matter first, but then he must take the time to personally inspect the market.
After chatting with Ma Ye, Li Yuanjing quietly gave Ma Ye a hundred big dollars of tea money, which made Ma Ye feel better about Li Yuanjing, and personally sent Li Yuanjing dozens of steps away.
And when Li Yuanjing left, Ma Ye's small abacus also dialed quickly.
Secretly said in my heart:
"I heard that the noble man liked these literati poems the most. But I've never heard of Li Shusheng's poem, and it seems to be pretty good......"
"If I give this Li Shusheng's poems to my old parents. The old parents gave it to the noble man again...... If a noble man is pleased, is he not ......"
Thinking.
Ma Ye was in high spirits, and hurriedly beckoned his deputy and said:
"Lao Liu, I have something important today, and I must go back to the county office. You must keep an eye on this side of the matter! Especially the safety of Li Shusheng, and there must be no slackness! Got it? ”
…
Li Yuanjing didn't know Ma Ye's little Jiujiu, and as soon as he left the tax collection point, Li Yuanjing was found by Zhao Zengjin, who was looking for him.
Zhao Zengjin also didn't get up long ago, he went to Li Yuanjing's house to look for Li Yuanjing but didn't find it, and was told by Yu Niang that Li Yuanjing was here at the tax collection point, so he looked for it.
When Li Yuanjing saw Zhao Zengjin, he couldn't help but pat his head excitedly, and said with a smile:
"Lao Zhao, I'm looking for you, you're just in time. Let's go, accompany me to find some good wood, I'm going to make something! ”
Zhao Zengjin was born as a carpenter.
He was naturally familiar with who had wood in Quanzi Village, and was busy and cheerful to guide Li Yuanjing.
"Li, Li Shusheng......"
But Li Yuanjing and the two had just walked a few steps when a weak female voice suddenly came from behind them.
Zhao Zengjin suddenly became vigilant and subconsciously protected Li Yuanjing.
Li Yuanjing saw the person clearly at this time, motioned to Zhao Zengjin to step back first, and said with a smile:
"Aunt Xiu, do you have something to do with me?"
The person who came was none other than Hou Wu's mother-in-law.
At this time, Aunt Xiu was obviously thinner than when Li Yuanjing saw her at the old village chief's house a few days ago.
But today, her hair is not messy, and her clothes seem to have been washed, which makes her already good look more durable.
If you only look at her face and don't look at her clothes, she will be like a female college student who is still in a pure and ignorant state in the future, which is a bit pleasing to the eye.
But.
Li Yuanjing saw something terrible from her seemingly indifferent eyes......
In addition, Li Yuanjing owes a little bit to Aunt Xiu because of Hou Wu's matter, and his attitude towards her is also quite soft.
As soon as she saw Li Yuanjing's attitude, Xiu Gu couldn't help but hang her head in shame, and her teeth bit her delicate red lips hard, almost biting blood.
After struggling for a moment, she plucked up her courage and said:
"Li Shusheng, can, can you take a step to speak...... Just a little bit......"
Xiu Gu looked at Li Yuanjing pleadingly.
Zhao Zengjin was about to come forward to stop him because Hou Wu was obviously very tired of Aunt Xiu, but Li Yuanjing waved his hand to stop him and said to Aunt Xiu:
"Okay."
"Aunt Xiu, what's the matter with you, just tell me. As for Hou Wu's affairs......"
Li Yuanjing couldn't help but think of the previous scene where Xiu Gu sold her daughter, and sighed deeply and said:
"That's not your fault. Hou Wu, a mongrel, doesn't want to be a man, his father and mother can't help it, what can you do? ”
"Li Shusheng ......"
Li Yuanjing's words directly made Xiugu's excited tears gush, and she hurriedly begged Li Yuanjing with her eyes to go to the small alley next to no one.
Li Yuanjing had actually guessed what Xiu Gu was going to do, ignored Zhao Zengjin's anxious gaze, and took the lead in the small alley.
gave Zhao Zengjin another look and asked him to look around.
"This ......"
Seeing that Xiu Gu quickly walked into the small alley with Li Yuanjing, Zhao Zengjin couldn't help but smile and sigh helplessly.
The owner is such a wise person, what kind of woman does he want, how can he be interested in Xiugu, a woman who has given birth......
How......
He was obviously speechless at this point.
"Plop!"
In the small alley.
Xiu Gu had already knelt in front of Li Yuanjing with tears and blood, kowtowed to Li Yuanjing and said:
"Li Shusheng, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry...... Slave for the unsuccessful, kowtow to you......"
Seeing Aunt Xiu's 'bang bang' kowtowing like pounding garlic, she was about to break her forehead, and Li Yuanjing didn't have time to avoid suspicion, so he hurriedly helped her up.
In fact.
As soon as Xiu Gu appeared, especially after seeing Xiu Gu's dress, Li Yuanjing guessed her mind a little.
This young woman, who was already a woman's mother, was not yet twenty years old.
In the next generation, she is still a simple girl with unknown personnel.
But at this time, she clearly had a will to die......
After all.
In this era, for ordinary people, the daughter who marries out is the water that is spilled.
In the case of Xiu Gu, Hou Wu committed this kind of sin, how could she go back to her parents' house?
If she really returned, she would probably be able to beat her to death.
And Li Yuanjing released the news that Hou Wu robbed most of his property last night, and in Quanzi Village, Xiugu seems to be unable to live......
Speaking of which, Li Yuanjing also has an unshirkable responsibility for causing this situation......
"Li Shusheng, you, you ......"
With such close physical contact between Mouran and Li Yuanjing, Xiu Gu's pretty face turned red in a blink of an eye, but she quickly became firm and said in a lamented voice:
"Li Shusheng, the Hou family owes you, Nu Xiugu can't pay it back in this life, and when you have the next life, the slave will be a cow and a horse, and pay off your debts......"
After speaking, as soon as Xiu Gu turned around, she was about to run away.
Li Yuanjing was quick and grabbed her.
Turn.
actually hugged her directly in his arms, and whispered in her ear very closely:
"Did Lao Tzu let you run? You're just running away? ”
"To tell you the truth, Lao Tzu has taken a fancy to you, do you understand?"
While speaking, Li Yuanjing directly knocked Xiugubi off, a little hairy.
"Li Shusheng ......"
Xiu Guqiao's face turned red instantly, she wanted to resist but didn't know how to resist, and her trembling hands were at a loss.
Li Yuanjing sighed silently in his heart.
can save this living life, even if he Li Yuanjing loses some face, why not?
Immediately said viciously:
"Xiugu, I know you're having a hard time now, but did you ask me? Am I going to make it impossible for you to live? ”
"Listen up."
"I'm going to open a weaving workshop soon, just three or two days. When the time comes, you will come directly to me to do the work. I won't lose your benefits. ”
Li Yuanjing directly took out hundreds of big coins, stuffed them into Xiugu's sleeve, and said:
"I know you're worried about your daughter, but as far as I know, these girls have just gone to the county seat and haven't been sold yet. If you are obedient, I will not hesitate to give you more money so that you can redeem your daughter, understand? ”
"Huh? This ......"
Xiu Gu's eyes widened and she looked at Li Yuanjing incredulously.
