Chapter 389: The Dog Officer Becomes a Good Official

"Well, it's the end of April now, and there's still more than a month to go. No matter how hard he tries, there may be this possibility. ”

Li Yuan spoke, and as soon as his words paused, his face was unprecedentedly serious.

"But Canniang, I have to tell you, don't have too much hope about Junzi's admission to Xiucai. After all, he has only a short time to pick up the book again, and it is already very good to be admitted to Tongsheng. What's more, this time, he is in the third from the bottom. ”

Seeing that she was suddenly so serious, Wang Can thought something was wrong, and nodded back when he heard the words: "Sister, I know everything." Although he said that he was hopeful, he understood that it was already very good for him to be admitted to Tongsheng. Others have studied hard for ten years, how long has it been before and after Brother Junzi? I know, I know. Sister, don't be afraid that when the time comes, because Brother Junzi can't pass the exam, I'll be angry with him or something, I'm not that kind of person. ”

"I know, I'm just afraid that if you have too much hope, you will be disappointed. All right, you carry all the meat back, and I'll drive the wagon to the woods behind." ”

"Good!"

Wang Can didn't ask her why she bought so much meat!

In fact, she didn't need to ask, she knew that she didn't have to make it in advance, and when the time came, she would eat it on the road, or she would make it into jerky and send it to Fucheng.

Her brother-in-law is good at everything, but he still has to rely on her sister's food every day to survive.

After all, she had never heard such a number one person as her brother-in-law in her previous life.

I think it's like what Sister said, because in her previous life, she was dead, so her brother-in-law was unlucky to die.

In this life, my sister can live, so my brother-in-law can also live.

These two people are worthy of being a destined husband and wife!

Su Mingshan brought a lot of silver this time, considering that it was inconvenient for the villagers to use silver tickets, she brought all silver ingots and strings of copper plates.

Because there was a banquet to be held at the old house, after she got up from a nap, she directly brought people to the old house to buy watermelons.

A melon, no matter how big or small, is all two taels.

Under the envy of everyone, the old house of the Li family picked a total of 154 watermelons in the huge yard, plus the vegetable field outside, and the sandy land that was later opened up.

Li Yuan always thought that only watermelons were planted in the yard of the old house, and when he knew that there were other places, he was stupid.

But she is also glad that the eldest brother and the second brother have done a big job, otherwise how could they make so much money at once?

The people of Li Jiaao were boiling after seeing that the people of the Li family's old house got three hundred and eight taels at once.

Although Su Mingshan likes strawberries and didn't ask for them in the end, the watermelon is expensive.

A melon and fruit, actually two taels of silver.

They worked hard to grow an acre of grain, but after removing the field tax, they could not earn half of it.

Although only eight taels of silver were left in the old mansion, the rest was used to return to Li Yuan.

But what people got their hands on before was also real silver, and Fucheng should also have a house, right?

While thinking like this, many of the people who helped to buy the evening banquet on the side of the old mansion secretly went to the watermelon field of the clan to guard.

These will be sold in a few days, in case they are given to Huo Huo by the rabbit cubs at this time, so what is it?

They also counted on selling this, to pay off debts, and to prepare more supplies.

As for Li Yuan's side, they may earn more when they turn around, and they are not red-eyed.

After all, this watermelon seed was given by someone, and they will bring back the medicinal materials in a few days, and they will ask the doctor to follow them.

In addition, it is also said that every time you pass a county or town in the future, there will be timely supplies of materials.

These are all the silver paid by the two of them.

If they are still red-eyed, then they are not as good as beasts!

On this day, the banquet in the old house of the Li family was lively, and the people of the Li family rarely became jubilant.

The Li family's big house, which is debt-free and light, is full of joy.

Even the Ling clan, who had been severely frightened before, was the same.

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it is the day when the watermelons of the Li clan are ripe.

Because Li Yuan didn't give many watermelon seeds before, and the Li clan according to Xie Yanzhi's words, a watermelon vine left one or two melon fruits, so there were only two hundred and seventy-three watermelons planted.

But for these two hundred and seventy-three, more than five hundred taels of silver were sold.

Li Qinghua took the heavy silver and squinted with a smile with the clan elders.

And he asked for half of the silver ingots and half of the brass plates.

After Su Mingshan took Li Sanhai's family and the Ling family away, Li Qinghua began to repay everyone according to the account book of the money he had borrowed before.

The money was paid back lively, and everything returned to normal.

Li Yuan paid for the strawberries that Su Mingshan didn't want, and her price was the same as the one she sold to Brother Cao before, and she was charged according to two taels per catty.

For this reason, whether it is the old family of the Li family or the people of the Li family, they are very grateful to her.

The days are getting drier and drier day by day, and the water level of the Liuyun River has become only half of the original.

The water level of the pond used for irrigation in Lijiaao is only shallow.

They are close to the Liuyun River here, and this should be the case in the most water-hungry places, let alone other places.

On the second day of the fifth month, Li Yuan took Wang Can to Xie's house, the county seat, and collected all the watermelons and strawberries.

After the two harvested it, they did not sell it as soon as possible, but continued to open the land for planting.

This time, it was undiluted spiritual spring water.

This Dragon Boat Festival, no one is in the mood.

The two of them go back to Lijiaao every day to live, either you go to the county seat today to water watermelons, or I go.

In this way, it was not until May 18 that the weather was so hot that no one dared to go out, and the two decided not to continue tossing.

"Canniang, you rest for a while, wash your face, wipe your body, I'll go to the yamen to call Master Xu and Master Bai, and when I come back, I will call Brother Cao to come and collect it."

After Li Yuan finished collecting the watermelons again, she poured out all the savings in the space.

There were a lot of watermelons this time, and the entire Xie family, except for the main house and the study, other places, including the kitchen, were full.

And the watermelon vines and other things in the courtyard, she and Wang Can confiscated them, so that they could go back to Xu Chongqing and show them.

"Good!"

Wang Can's cheeks were so hot that her cheeks were red, and the clothes on her body were already sweaty, and she needed to rinse them quickly.

As soon as Li Yuan left, she closed the door of Xie's house, took the barrel, basin and handkerchief that Li Yuan took out from the space, and began to fetch water and freshen up.

The Xie family's well is good, and the water level has always been high, but at the moment, the water level is only shallow bottom.

It's impossible to carry a bucket at a time, and it's not bad to be able to carry half a bucket.

Wang Can knew that many people in Liuyun County had run out recently, and unlike in his previous life, this time Xu Chongguang did not use the road to guide everyone, but encouraged everyone to go to their relatives.

And also said that it is better not to be a relative of Xinyang Mansion, and now the situation outside is worse than that of Liuyun County.

Every time someone wanted to leave, he would also tell everyone to go together as many people as possible.

There are really no relatives outside, and after the new prefect takes office in June, he and the prefect apply for a place.

At that time, he will be able to leave his place of office and leave with his group.
