Li Shangyi pulled him up: "I don't buy the land in Sheng Ran Mountain, it's just that the Jueguan family sells it too expensive, and I don't expect to be able to save a few gentlemen." ”

"Indeed, it was a bonus." Xin Shansi looked at the gentlemen, happy for them and their families, but also sad. The bureaucratic system is chaotic, corruption is rife, and the common people are really not as good as the mustard.

After Feng Xiao finished talking to the Chinese, he stepped forward to check the pulse of several gentlemen: "Your body is weak, and I will prescribe you a few doses of nourishing decoction in a while." ”

"Thank you, Doctor Wind." The tun chief beckoned everyone: "Hurry up and let a few gentlemen go back to wash their bad luck." When you are free, go and visit again. ”

The gentlemen bowed to the villagers: "Thank you for remembering, thank you for remembering." ”

After joining the excitement and going back, Li Jiujiu and her Aunt Binghuan were hot enough, and her small body fell towards her mother. Xin Shansi took it and said to Dr. Li: "We still have six or seven catties of sugar at home, divide one point, and pick up twenty eggs for each of the six gentlemen." ”

"Yes." Li Shang took his girl's little hand. Feng Xiao, who was following behind, saw a familiar merchant coming from the northeast corner, and his feet quickened: "The caramel and sugar osmanthus on this stall are very good, let me go and see if there are any more?" ”

Lu Yao crossed his arms in his hands and looked at the picker who was wearing a hat and a sweat towel around his neck. The eyebrows are sparse and the lips are slightly thick, and there is no protrusion on the facial features. He was of average stature, his waist was slightly clumped by a burden, his hands and feet were rough, and his skin was dark. But it is precisely these ordinary people who have set up a news network of the first world.

"You know the goods, I make this sugar osmanthus at home, and it is only at this time of the year." The merchant wrapped three catties of caramel in oiled paper, and then took out the last jar of sugar osmanthus from the box: "These two are valuable." ”

Feng Xiao paid the money and followed the master with his things. When he returned home and closed the courtyard door, he immediately ran to the kitchen, opened the caramel packet, took out the letter from the mezzanine, and went to the main room.

Li Jiujiu, who had been over for more than four months, turned over very neatly, lying on the kang couch, turning over and lying flat with his little legs kicking, and pouting his little buttocks again. Several people stared at her.

Feng Xiao entered the house and handed the letter to the lord: "No money." ”

Li Shang tore open the seal, took out the letter and unfolded it, the corners of his lips raised slightly, and turned his head to look at the looking Shansi: "It's the Yao family." ”

"What does the letter say?" Xin Shansi grabbed one of Li Jiujiu's little feet. Li Jiujiu kicked her legs, and she turned over and turned over vigorously.

At a glance, Li Shang said: "Thank you for sending that script to the Yao family, and make it clear that the Yao family's strange army array was indeed borrowed by Qi Ningshu in the first month of the second year of Taishun." In October of the fourth year of Taishun, after Qi Ningshu was killed in battle, the strange army array was no longer seen. In the following 20 years, the Yao family devoted themselves to finding the whereabouts of the strange soldier array, and also found out some things.

On the seventh day of the twelfth lunar month of the 22nd year of Liehe, on the way out of the palace to visit his eldest brother, Meng Yuling broke the axle of the carriage, which startled the horse. Qi Ningshu passed by and helped control the horse. The two met and secretly corresponded for several years, and the friendship between them was not shallow.

Before Qi Ningshu set out on the expedition, he also went to the Taihe Temple in the western suburbs of Mengdu to have a private meeting with Meng Yuling, who prayed in the temple. The master behind Qinfeng Tower is Meng Yuling. The Qi family was not depressed, and the courtyard was even more tightly guarded than Meng Yuling's princess's mansion, and even a lot of secret posts were set up near the homestead.

Meng Yuling's newly-acquired male pet Qin Qingyao is very scheming, so let's be careful. Bai Shinian was no longer under Meng Yao's command and took refuge in Qin Qingyao. At the end of the letter, the Yao family said that the appeal was a surprise formation. ”

There was silence in the room for a few breaths, and Lu Yao opened his mouth first: "The Yao family has deployed manpower in Mengduli. ”

"Not strange." Feng said with a smile: "Bai Shinian dared to turn his back on Meng Yao and switch to Meng Yuling? He's really fat. ”

"Could the fiery passion of the Yuling Palace be the poison prescription he adjusted?" Xue Bingning grimaced.

Li Shang frowned, twisting and twisting the paper with his hand. Xin Shansi looked at it and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"It feels familiar." Li Shang went into the inner room, opened the rattan basket on the bedside table, found the letter they had obtained at the fork of Xiaozhangshan Mountain, and returned to the lobby and handed the two letters to Shansi: "You touch it, this paper is tougher than the paper we use on a daily basis." ”

Chapter 89

Xin Shansi let go of Li Jiujiu's little feet, took the two letters, took the Yao family's envelope first, gently twisted the paper, and carefully felt the touch under her fingertips. This paper, looks general but twists up... It's like a texture, very subtle and subtle. I changed the letter without signature and signature, and when I twisted it, it felt exactly the same.

Feng Xiao turned around and walked out of the main room, went to his room and took two pieces of paper, and handed one to Yan Xiaoniang.

Xin Shansi didn't answer, only put the letter in her left hand on the kang table, reached out to twist it, and said straightly: "It's different, the paper we use has no lines." He twisted the two letters to each of them, turned around and held the kang couch with one hand and the small thing that had been turned to the edge of the kang couch with the other.

After turning over a few times, Li Jiujiu was a little out of breath, and was carried back to the center of the kang couch by her mother, and she kicked her legs and wanted to continue to flip. Li Shang leaned over and picked up the little one.

"It's different." Feng Xiao twisted and twisted, the paper they used was not the best on the market, and the quality was medium to high. Yaojia's letter paper, the color of the paper is no different from the paper they use, and the paper looks no different, but there is a very faint sense of texture when twisted. The difference is huge, in the papermaking process.

Lu Yaozu had a calloon on his hand, and he couldn't feel it. The ruler sword is the same, and he can't detect any lines, and Xue Bingning can touch it. Lu Yao's hand skin is delicate, and it will be different when he twists it.

Feng Xiao pulled the corner of the paper: "I'll go to the bookstore tomorrow to ask if there is any such paper for sale." He had a hunch that the paper used by the Yao family to carry messages was specially made. The background of the people is there, and they also have this strength.

The letter was passed back to Xin Shansi, and she looked at the letter with the words "Qi Ningshu is not dead" and pondered: "If this letter is to be sent to Dongtaishan, does that mean that the Yao family's secret has been exposed?" ”

"There was a special mention of a person in Yao's letter." Li Shang kissed the little fleshy paw that covered his mouth: "Qin Qingyao." ”

Lu Yao nodded: "It also emphasizes that this person is scheming." ”

"Let's be careful..."Xue Bingning guessed, "They can't have already suffered a loss in the hands of this Qin Qingyao, right?" ”

"The loss may not be small." Xin Shansi pondered for a moment and asked, "Do you want to inform the Yao family that Qi Ningshu is not dead and is the head of Shiyao Mountain?" ”

"Yes." If the time had not yet come, Li Shang would have made this matter public: "I just want to let the Yao family not act rashly for the time being." The evil ghost camp was held with all heinous 'evil ghosts', and Si Qin had refined so many strange medicines for Meng Yuling, who knew what Qi Ningshu had done there? ”

"Okay." Feng Xiao wanted to prepare, but saw Yan Xiaoniang handing over the letter that had not been settled.

Xin Shansi smiled: "Use this, and tell the Yao family how we got this letter." "It won't be long before the Yao family will know that they have a common enemy.

At the end of the morning, Huhede Mahao returned to the house, and as soon as he entered the main courtyard, he began to cry and mourn: "Madam, my husband has been deceived by the Xu family. ”

"I've told you all, don't be greedy." The woman led a little girl who looked like her out of the house.

As soon as she saw that her daughter was there, Ma Hao immediately put away her mourning face, turned her back to the back end of her hand and took a strict father posture, and cleared her throat.

"You have been in the Xu family for five years, and the Xu family is fat, but no matter how fat it is, it is still a pig. The pig has grown to five or six hundred catties, and it has been up to the sky. The woman pouted: "They are stupid, so they will take out all their family resources and go to Shengran Mountain to buy land and honor Tantra." Li Shang Yan Qing is not stupid, how could he spend two taels of silver and one acre to buy your wasteland? ”

"Isn't it said that Li Shang spends money like running water?" Why did he pick and search for him?

The woman smiled, "Do you see a rich self-made man who is a fool?" When the money is like water, it is worth it. If you have to sell him for two taels of silver and one acre of wasteland, and he is not afraid of you, why should you buy it? ”

"Yes." In addition to Anfen, the biggest advantage of Ma Yu is to change it when he knows his mistakes: "For the husband, I will send someone to Chengde Yaxing tomorrow, one or two silver and one acre, if Li Shang wants, the day after tomorrow will go to Shengran Mountain to measure the land." ”

"Hurry up and sell it." The smile on the woman's face faded: "The Xu family is deliberately dragging you back, waiting for Datai." ”

"Datai is here, and he sells it like Lao Tzu." Ma Hao said hatefully: "When the land is sold, see how I clean up my surname Xu." Dare to tease the official, the official let them not eat and walk around. ”

With a soft hum, the woman said quietly: "I will also clean up all the dirty things in the house in the next few days." ”

In the guest house, Tan Siyu was worried. Isn't the Xu family a big family in Chongzhou City? Now they only need to spend 20,000 taels of silver to please the tantras, and such a good opportunity is in front of them, and they don't cherish it?

Ma Hao is also bold, he dares to sell the land in the area of Shengran Mountain, and he simply doesn't take Tantra in his eyes.

How? After revealing her life experience, Tan Siyu was afraid to see Abba, but she didn't want to live so anxiously and uneasily. She originally thought that if she could stop Ma from selling the land of Shengran Mountain to Yan Qing in Lishang, it would be regarded as a credit, and maybe she would make Abba not so angry. But after trying, she found that without an official identity, she could not interfere with anything.

Today, Xunjiatun is very happy, the sun has not set, and Xin Shansi's family has received four large bowls of meat dishes. There is nothing at home to give in return, and the caramel that Fengxiao bought at noon comes in handy. There was another knock at the door, and the ruler sword strode to open the door. Li Jiujiu, who was held by his father and stayed under the eaves, turned his head and followed his eyes.

The courtyard door opened, and the boy standing outside the door was the same young man who was about to kowtow to Li Shang. He carried a large food box in his right hand and a basket covered with cloth in his left hand, and smiled: "I killed the chickens with my milk and stewed soup with wild mushrooms, let me send an urn for you to taste." ”

"Keep it for your lord and them to replenish their bodies, we really don't lack food." Qi Jian was distressed. Even if there is a big stone set, every household in Xunjiatun cannot see meat every day.

"There are a lot of them at home, and my grandmother killed two chickens." The young boy handed out the food box: "In the basket are a few pomegranates, which are made from my own tree." ”

The ruler sword couldn't do it, so he reached out and took the food box and basket: "You wait." "I went to the kitchen, vacated the soup urn, washed it, and then put the pomegranate on the table, and grabbed two large handfuls of caramel and wrapped them in paper and put them in the basket.

The little boy took the basket and the food box, but he didn't want to ask for the candy: "You have already given a pound of sugar in the afternoon, and my grandmother has been chattering for a long time, saying that the gift is too heavy." I can't take you caramel anymore. ”

"You want us to visit your house again?" The ruler sword was forced to him: "There are several boys who come to deliver food, but you can't be the only one." Go back to dinner, don't let them wait for you. ”

After that, there were three more waves of food deliveries. In the evening, Xin Shansi and the others only cooked one pot of rice, and there were seven dishes and a pot of soup on the table. The soup is very fresh, and although the taste of the seven dishes is different, they are all delicious, and it can be seen that they are all the specialties of each family.

After dark, there were only a few scattered lights in Xunjiatun, and it was very quiet. Xin Shansi After putting her daughter on the bunk, let Dr. Li watch, and she went to take a bath. Li Shang took the old pharmacopoeia and lay down beside the girl. Li Jiujiu had slept for less than an hour during the day, and she was very sleepy, and her little feet were attached to her father and she closed her eyes with peace of mind.

With doting in her eyes, Li Shang helped her tuck the small quilt and grabbed the little fleshy paws she was holding.

The lights are out, and Li Jiujiu is still sleeping in the bottom of the bunk tonight. Xin Shansi went to the kang, stepped over Dr. Li, and looked at her fat girl with the glittering brilliance of the night pearl on the lamp holder at the end of the kang.

Li moved his upper body inside, waiting for his wife.

"Every time I hold Li Jiujiu's foot, I want to take a bite." Xin Shansi lay down next to her daughter, and couldn't let go of the little guy's fleshy little feet, how could she be so cute?

In the same way, Li bent his lips and put his hand under Shansi's head, his thumb rubbing her hair.

Putting the girl's little feet back in her little quilt, Xin Shansi turned over and put Dr. Li's arm on the pillow, and stroked the hard stubble on his chin with the hand that had just touched the little foot, and laughed stupidly.

"I don't think so." Li Shang grabbed her hand and kissed her palm.

The palm of his hand was burned by the blazing breath, and Xin Shansi's eyes were confused.

Fingers inserted between her fingers, pressed against her face, and Li Shang approached. Xin Shansi was about to print it, but her left ear twitched suddenly, and the confusion in her eyes instantly dissipated, and she looked at the roof, and her eyes moved with the movement, and finally settled on the back window.

Click, the rear window was lightly tapped twice. Li Shang pulled out his arm and pulled out two silver needles from the waist seal hanging on the shelf.

Click, two more taps. He approached the back window vigilantly and asked in a deep voice, "Who?" ”

Outside the window immediately responded: "Squeak..."

Monkey barking? Xin Shansi couldn't cry or laugh, and withdrew her hand from her daughter's small body. Li Shang did not relax, tore some window paper with a needle, and pushed up the window lattice when he saw the familiar monkey face. The monkey had become impatient, took out two letters from the small cloth bag he was carrying, threw them into the house and leaped away.

Snapping Closing the window lattice, Li Shang picked up the two letters on the ground and put them on the kang, and took the flint. Xin Shansi got dressed on the kang, the monkeys had arrived, and Wen Mingyue must be nearby.

Admiral Li lit the lamp and took the letter to read.

"Who's?" Xin Shansi calculated the time, wondering if it would be Wuli and Yuer?

"This one is five miles." Li Shang leaned over to her, and the two of them read together. In the letter, Wuli said the origin of the Juesha Building, and pointed out that its three owners were him, Yu Er and Qi Yun. He did not excuse himself for the involvement of the Absolute Evil Building with the destruction of the Li family, but only said that he would find out the truth and give Li Shang a satisfactory explanation.

Xin Shansi was quite satisfied with this attitude: "Look at another letter." ”

Li Shang tore open the seal of another letter, took out the letter and unfolded it, and there was a signed letter at the end of the letter, which was Yu Erzhen. This letter is similar to the one in Wuli, and it also says that the establishment of the Absolute Evil Building is to eliminate evil, but he never expected that one day the Absolute Evil Building will become the root of evil. Please Li Shang be at ease, before writing this letter, he had already informed his senior brother Quanfeng of the destruction of the Juesha Building and the Li family. When the destruction of the Li family is revealed to the world, he will come to Li Shang to ask for guilt.

Wen Mingyue couldn't wait for anyone to come out for a long time, so she threw down the reserved flowers and climbed over the wall into the courtyard. As soon as her feet landed, she saw the door of the south room of the east wing open, and when she saw the old man landing, she did not dare to hesitate and immediately raised her hand to salute.

Recognizing that the person was the little shopkeeper of the First Boundary Building, Lu Yaozu retreated into the house and closed the door.

Relieved, Wen Mingyue walked towards the main room. Before he reached the door, the door opened from the inside. Xin Shansi walked out, looked behind her, didn't see anyone around, and couldn't help but smile and ask, "The monkey brought Hua Feiran again?" ”

Her face was hot, and Wen Mingyue was embarrassed: "I came to you to tell you something serious." ”

"Chongzhou from a special place?" Xin Shansi turned sideways and invited someone to sit in the room, only to touch the pot to pour tea, and then heard a knock on the door. Wen Mingyue, who was on the bench on her buttocks, stood up again, she forgot to open the door for the landlord, and hurriedly ran to the courtyard door.

Li Shang put on his clothes and walked out of the room and looked out of the house. Hua Feiran led the little monkey and came with Wen Mingyue.

A few people said a few polite words and sat around the table.

"What did you just ask me?" Before the words fell, Wen Mingyue remembered: "Yes... No, I didn't come to Chongzhou to look for you, but I happened to be passing by, and it happened that Wuli and Yu Erhui's letter to you arrived in Chongzhou in the afternoon. I also have something to tell you, so I'll come by night. ”

Li Shang served the tea, and rushed to Hua Feiran, who was sitting opposite, and said, "I believe we have already read it." ”

Hua Feiran raised his cup: "The Butterfly King Knife you are looking for is very strong, and only a trace of it has been found in the First Boundary Building." ”

Seeing him drinking tea, Wen Mingyue picked up the words: "Xun Li was led to Qiufengling by someone, as for who led it, this is to ask the executioner Xu family." ”

"No evidence?" Xin Shansi asked.

Hua Feiran shook his head: "The other party is very clean." ”

"Can you find out who did it?" Xun Li is not an ordinary Jianghu guest, his Butterfly King Knife has long been famous in martial arts. Li Shang thought that the person who could take him down was by no means an ordinary person.

After contemplating for three or five breaths, Wen Mingyue asked, "Can Xun Li's knife be given to us?" ”

Li Shang and Shansi glanced at each other, got up and went out, knocked on the door of Feng Xiao, explained a few words, and returned to the main house. After a while, Feng Xiao and Lu Yaozu left the house and went to the backyard.

"It's been a lot of trouble lately." Hua Feiran's face lost the gentleness that Su daily hung on his face: "Not only Xun Li has disappeared, but Shi Ning has also disappeared in early July. The Hanshan faction pressed the news, and searched for more than a month with all the strength of the faction, but found nothing at all, and took a thousand gold on August 20 to find a boundary building. The first boundary building has been checked so far, and only Shi Ning has appeared in Penghejiang on the second day of the seventh month. ”
