Time passes.

Half a month has passed.

Wei Tu and Xinghua returned to their jobs the day after they got married, and began to work inside and outside Li's house without the slightest slack.

The two are a lot more diligent than before.

These performances were all seen by the grandmother of the Li family, and every few days, Li Tong's boasted once or twice, and he was very satisfied with the marriage he facilitated.

Compared with Wei Tu, Xinghua has changed a lot, and used to sneak a little meat in the stove room, but after getting married, he changed his temperament.

A pound of meat was cooked and shrunk into seven taels, and she brought the seven taels of meat straight to the table in the inner house, without a little slippery and stealing.

Sensing that Li Tong's satisfaction with herself had reached the highest level in the past ten years, Xinghua tiptoed to Li Tong's in the afternoon, and said that she and Wei Tu planned to take leave to return to their hometown to visit relatives.

"The book says that if you have nothing to do, you will ......either be a traitor or a thief," Li Tongshi was holding the soles of her shoes in the living room, and the hemp rope made a small sound through the mille-feuille cloth, she raised her eyes and glanced at the apricot blossoms, and said this sentence with a smile.

Although the words were very mean, with Li Tong's gentle smile, Xinghua's restraint in facing the main family disappeared by half.

"I've seen all the work you've been doing these days, rest assured, I won't find someone to take your shift before you come back."

Li Tongshi made a promise.

"Thank you, grandma." Xinghua showed a grateful look and thanked her.

"One more thing......"

Xinghua hesitated for a moment, gritted her teeth and said that she planned to let Wei Tu rent the grain field of Li Mansion as a tenant.

As soon as the winter is over, the fields can start to grow wheat, beans and rape.

At that time, it was not easy to find an ownerless land in the grain field of Li Zhai.

"Brother Wei will not delay feeding the horses......" Xinghua saw that Li Tongshi did not reply this time, and bowed her head and added.

She also knew that this was a bit excessive.

No matter how capable a living person is, it is better for two people to work separately.

Taking into account farming and feeding horses, if any of them are bad, it will be the loss of Li Zhai.

Secondly, Li Zhai is located in the county seat, and Wei Tu rents land to grow grain, in order to feed the horses, he can only rent Li Zhai along the river near the county seat.

The riverside land is not the same as the dry slope land, and it is a first-class grain field.

Even if you don't take care of it, you can still have a good harvest in the event of a drought.

"The matter of renting the land, I will talk about it after you and Wei Tu return to their hometown to visit relatives......" Li Tong did not refuse, nor did he agree.

"Yes, grandma."

Xinghua was a little depressed and left the inner courtyard with her head down.

At night.

After listening to Xinghua's relay, Wei Tu comforted: "Since the eldest grandmother did not refuse your request, it is the idea of agreeing in her heart. It's just that the lord can't promise you two things at once. ”

He didn't say the rest of the story.

Li Tong's doing this is reasonable, he is too conniving with his subordinates, and sooner or later his subordinates will kick their noses in the face.

Li Zhai can be taken care of by Li Tong's in an orderly manner, and the subordinates respect and fear Li Tong's family, none of which shows that Li Tong's is a housewife who knows how to govern the family.

"I don't agree this time, and next time, ask for it a few more times, the eldest grandmother is soft-hearted, the purpose of the royal majesty has been completed, and she will agree......"

Weitu spoke his mind.

Even if it doesn't work.

After five years, when he completed his health maintenance and entered the realm of emotion, the little money he spent renting the land and farming was not worth mentioning.

Now, with the warm current gushing out of his limbs, he has one hundred and eighty pounds of strength with the wave of his arms.

When the health maintenance is completed, his physical fitness will definitely be better than now.

With this physical fitness, after practicing the moves and reading some military books, you can participate in the martial arts, fight for the fame of a martial artist and a martial artist, and retire to become a martial artist in the nursing courtyard and be a guest of honor for the wealthy.

Zheng Guo's martial arts is "martial arts first, followed by strategy".

As long as you are proficient in martial arts and inferior in the art of war, you can still achieve martial arts fame.

"Okay, when I come back, I'll ask for grandma a few more times." Xinghua heard Wei Tu's penetrating analysis, and her heart was amazed and full of joy.

……

The next day, the sky was bright.

Wei Tu and Xinghua packed their luggage, left the county seat in the dark, and went to the countryside.

Weitu's native is in Weijia Village, Changming Township, under Aoki County.

From the county seat to Changming Township, it is about 20 miles of official roads, and seven or eight miles of mountain roads.

Halfway down the road.

There was a mule cart on the official road, and Wei Tu and Xinghua spent a little money and sat on it.

When we reached the end of the official road, it was only four o'clock in the afternoon, and it was about two hours before dark.

Xinghua planned to save money, did not live in the inn, and walked all the way to Changming Township.

"It's cold, the tigers and wolves on the mountain are hungry and come down the mountain, this point is too dangerous to walk the mountain road, if you don't catch up and go home."

The handlebar style is a warm-hearted one, and when he heard that Wei Tu and his family were discussing visiting relatives and returning to their hometown, he immediately interjected and admonished.

"In addition to the beasts on the mountain, there are also bandits on the mountain...... if the men go back, it won't matter, there is an aunt, and those people will not show mercy."

After parking at the inn, the handlebar spat on the ground and added a warning to the two Weitu.

Listen to people's advice and eat well.

Xinghua saw that there were many people staying in the roadside inn, and the clothes were not very rich, and she was no longer stubborn, so she took out the money and rented a lower room.

At night.

The two of them fell asleep in their clothes.

When it was about four watches, because of the habit of raising horses, Weitu woke up halfway.

At that moment, he heard a faint, chaotic sound of horses' hooves outside the house.

Wei Tu walked to the window and pushed the sash open a gap.

Soon.

A few hundred meters away, in the bright moonlight, he saw the origin of the sound of horses' hooves.

It was a group of dozens of cavalrymen, wearing scarfs and crimson leather armor, and the cavalry in front of them was holding a banner embroidered with the word "Zheng".

"Zheng Guo's officers and soldiers?" Weitu was surprised.

The cavalry among the officers and soldiers has always been a rare species, and he has not seen it a few times in Aoki County.

Appearing outside the inn this time, there must be a reason that he doesn't know.

Just as Wei Tu was paying attention, the sound of fighting came from within these dozens of officers and soldiers, and after waiting for half an hour, the sound of fighting gradually stopped.

The cavalry left one by one and disappeared on the official road.

On the ground, there are more swordsmen armed with Yokoyama knives.

"Are the officers and soldiers suppressing bandits?"

Wei Tu guessed.

"Could it be that there is another famine? That's why there are bandits? ”

There are two kinds of bandits, one is a natural evil species, a thief who cuts the path, and the other is a good person who was forced to become a bandit during the famine.

Qingfeng Mansion swordsmen are rampant, in Qing'an fifteen years when the red dragon turned over the most prosperous, some of the seriously affected places, ten households have three families of men are swordsmen, knife bandits.

"I hope this doesn't spread to the county. When the disaster is great, the people will become bandits, and the city will be conquered, and then it will be the servants of our big families who will serve as civil servants......"

Wei Tu's eyes were worried.
