Li Jishan was speechless for a while, but he quickly reacted and pointed at Yingbao: "Since you have recovered from your illness, you don't go to the scientific examination, but what are you doing with these people home?" ”

Ying Bao didn't wait for Li Xu to answer, and said arrogantly: "Because he owes me medical bills and consultation fees!" Of course I'm going to come and ask for it! ”

Li Xu nodded: "My nephew does owe Xiaolangzhong the consultation fee and medicine money, and he can't afford to repay it now." ”

When everyone heard this, they were in an uproar, and their eyes all turned to Li Jishan, the village leader.

The whole village knows that Li Xu's 20 acres of unendowed land quota was hung by Li Jishan's family, and this hanging hung for three years.

And in the past three years, Li Jishan doesn't seem to have said anything to this eldest nephew.

Not only did she not say it, Li Jishan's wife often said outside that she knew that she would not be separated back then, and her family would be exempted from forced labor.

When Li Jishan heard this, his face changed unpredictably, he paused for a while, and said bitterly: "I'll believe you once, I'll pay for this medical fee!" ”

Sakura: "Okay, a total of fifty taels of silver, I'll get it and leave." ”

"W-What?" Li Jishan was dumbfounded: "Fifty taels? What medicine is so expensive? ”

Sakura: "The medicine is not precious, can you pull your nephew back from the ghost gate?" ”

"You...... Honest and untrustworthy! I won't believe it! Li Jishan was embarrassed and annoyed, turned around and brushed his sleeves away.

Before leaving, he left the next sentence: "Li Xu, I have to go back in advance, and you will go to my house to talk in detail when you go back." ”

Li Xu looked at the back of the uncle leaving and sighed secretly.

During the time I was lying in the inn, I suddenly figured out a lot of things.

It is better to rely on others than on yourself, and any clan relatives are all floating clouds.

is like his own uncle, while enjoying the benefits he gave, he secretly hopes that he will be unlucky.

The uncle's youngest son was drunk once, and once pointed at Li Xu and said: "A poor bastard like you should not be able to turn over for the rest of your life, thinking that you will be great if you are a talent in the examination?" Can you show off your might in front of us? Tell you! Dream on! ”

Li Xu was very frightened at the time, and didn't understand why his cousin would say this about himself, seeing that he was drunk again, thinking that he was just drunk and not sober, and talking nonsense.

Now that I think about it, my eleven or twelve-year-old cousin must have heard his parents' words behind his back.

Li Xu lost his father since he was a child, and he and his mother depended on each other, and in the first few years, he couldn't even eat dumplings during the New Year.

In order to provide for his education, his mother sold the family's land and worked day and night to do embroidery.

Obviously, the uncle's family lives next door, but his family has never received any help from them.

After he became a student, although the uncle was polite to him, he belittled him in front of outsiders, saying that he was dull since he was a child, and that he was only an orphan when he was an orphan in the examination.

The uncle didn't know that in fact, the college examination was held in the prefecture, and the superintendent was not the county order, but the school official.

"Xiao Langzhong, let you laugh."

Li Xu lowered his head and pondered for a while, and suddenly asked, "Can Xiaosheng really go to your hometown to teach students to pay off debts?" ”

"Yes, my father is a village leader, and there is a ready-made school in our village, but I can't find a suitable gentleman for a while."

"Good! I'll go! Li Xu made up his mind, and suddenly hesitated and asked, "Xiaolangzhong, can Xiaosheng take his mother with him?" ”

Sakura Bao: "Of course, the school in our village is very large, there are several rooms, and there is a big yard, which is bigger than here, and when the original husband left, there were still a few hens left, if you go, those hens will belong to you, and the eggs will belong to you." ”

While flickering, she peeked at Li Xu.

It would be great if I could go back to be a private school gentleman.

Because Xiucai has exam experience, it is better for him to teach children than those children who can only enlighten children.

"Thank you, Xiaolangzhong." Li Xu took a deep look at Yingbao, "Let's set off tomorrow." ”

Sakura Bao's eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and he couldn't help nodding: "Okay, let's leave tomorrow." ”

I was worried that my mother would meet ill-intentioned people on the way, but now it's okay, there is a Xiucai accompanying me on the way, and it must be much safer.

However, in the afternoon of the same day, when Li Xu was applying for his mother's household registration, he was blocked by his uncle.

Li Jishan angrily scolded his nephew: "Your mother is a widow, how can you take her around?" ”

Li Xu said coldly: "My mother has been filial piety to my father for thirteen years, even if she is remarried now, others have no right to interfere." ”

"You!" Li Jishan slapped the table angrily: "I am the head of the Li family, so I can't help you mess around." ”

Li Xu raised his eyes and looked at the uncle: "Uncle, since you say so, then please borrow fifty taels of silver from your nephew, and the nephew will return the medical money to the little divine doctor, and send them away, and the nephew doesn't have to go with him to earn money to pay off the debt, and then return the money to the uncle." ”

"Can you get lifted?" Li Jishan scoffed: "You can also be lifted?" Don't be delusional! I'm not going to mess around with money! ”

Li Xu grinned and laughed at himself: "Since the uncle refuses to borrow money, then the nephew can only go out to earn money to pay off the debt, but as soon as I leave, my mother is blind and has nothing to rely on, so the nephew must take her with me." ”

Li Jishan's mouth squirmed a few times, but he didn't make a sound.

Seeing this, Li Zheng next to him hurriedly wrote a reason for his trip, and took Li Xu to the nearest post pavilion to stamp the letter, so that he could send it to the county government for the record.

Nowadays, although it is much more convenient for good people to travel and is not as rigorous as before, they still have to go through the procedures to avoid being arrested in other places.

Li Xu took this household registration certificate, thanked Li Zheng, and then went home.

Early the next morning, the ox cart hired by Li Xu arrived, and everyone hurriedly moved things to the car.

Li Xu helped his mother into the car and sat down, then turned around and locked the door, closed the door of the bamboo fence, and then got into the ox cart.

The ox cart traveled for several hours, and finally arrived at the Mingjiang wharf before dark.

It's a bustling market town, and even when it's dark, there are still plenty of shops open.

Li Xu first found an inn, and after settling everyone, he went to the dock alone to inquire about the ships passing by Qinchuan County.

As a result, he really heard that a merchant ship was going to dock at the dock in Qinchuan County.

Li Xu was overjoyed, and asked again that the ship could carry passengers, and he was even more excited.

But the owner of the ship said that their merchant ship would depart tomorrow at midnight, so the guests had to board the ship before midnight.

Li Xu hurriedly promised that he would get on the boat in advance, and then rushed back to tell A-Niang and Aunt Jiang.

Chunniang was very happy, took her daughter's hand and promised that Ming'er would get up early.

can finally return to her hometown safely, Chun Niang breathed a sigh of relief.

The anxiety and worry of these days have finally been alleviated, and Chun Niang can't help but cry.

Ying Bao patted Ah Niang and said: "Mother, when we get home, I will send a letter to the acting king, that Xiao Chengjun not only deliberately left us, but also took away the gold and cloth given by the emperor, if there is one less thing in the box, I will never stop!" ”

More than a hundred taels of gold is not a small amount, and there are dozens of silk horses.

Even if Xiao Chengjun is the son of a family, he has no property and no offerings, and with only a little money and occasional rewards, he can drink a pot of money with so much money at once.
