Chapter 1,136: Sharing Prosperity and Burden
you have two big iron pots. I might as well bring some soybeans over and cook them with you. We can also dry them in your courtyard."Zhang Er's sister-in-law the more she talked, the more feasible it...As night fell, it quickly swallowed Xing Ning's figure, leaving Old Master Xing and Madam Xing weeping with grief. 。After a long while, Mrs. Xing wiped her tears and took her husband's hand, "My lord, thank you for not forcing me to leave with you." 。"
Mr. Xing chuckled wryly, “I know persuading you is useless, so I won't anger you any further.” 。In short, as long as I live one day, you live one day. As husband and wife, we will never be separated. 。As for the children… well, let's just leave it to fate. 。“Master, don't worry too much. The Li family is just being prepared.” 。I'm not saying that Wan'er married into the Li family, but our family has also received a lot of care from the Li family over the years. 。Since we share in the good fortune, of course we also share in the hardship. 。Mr. Xing tightened his wife's hand and nodded gently. 。The couple stood in the darkness, neither of them speaking for a long time. Similarly, in Mrs. Jia's courtyard, Mrs. Jia was placing a stack of silver bills into Dongmei's hands. 。She spoke earnestly, "Tomorrow I'll say that Baozhu is ill and quietly send her to a relative's house. " 。Our Jia family is of humble status and little influence. Baozhu's brothers are all outside the home, so even if something happens, they wouldn't be implicated too much. 。So this time, I won't be sending anyone south with the ship. 。"Please take this stack of silver notes back and tell the Princess and Fourth Madam that I am grateful for their kindness." 。These silver coins are for Wan'er and her son to use on their journey. It's also a token of love from your aunt. 。Furthermore, please rest assured that in our house, besides me, no one else will know about tonight's events. 。Winter Plum didn't try to dissuade her, and accepted the silver note. 。Jia's second wife took out another gold bracelet and gave it to Dongmei, "Thank you for running this errand. Be careful on your way back." 。“ Winter Plum hesitated for a moment, not wanting to accept... 。But Jia Erfu directly put it on her hand, "Although I don't often go to Suijin Beach, I also know that you are a trusted person by the county princess." 。Since the county princess sent you to deliver a message, it shows her affection for me and Baozhu. 。I'm grateful, so please don't refuse. 。"
Winter Plum only then nodded, then bowed, and silently left the Jia family.
"。Actually, compared to the Liu family and the Xing family, the Jia family's chances of being implicated are indeed small. 。But it's always good to say, just in case something happens, if Jia family is left unattended, all the past friendship would be ruined, and maybe even lead to enemies...Winter Plum's martial arts are quite good, coming and going without alarming anyone in the Jia family. 。But the maid who stayed with Jia Erfuren to keep her company that night still knew. 。At this moment, she quietly entered the room and hesitantly asked, "Madam, is there anything you need"Jia Erfu shook her head and replied, "There's something about tonight's visitor. Don't tell anyone about it, including the second master..." 。Go to sleep, we have a lot to do tomorrow. 。“
Grandmother quickly agreed and quietly went out.” 。Jia Erfu looked out the window at a certain spot, a secluded pavilion. Her husband was soundly asleep there, in the arms of his concubine. 。The Li family sent someone to find her privately, their intentions were very clear. 。The Li family believed in her, but they didn't trust the Jia family. 。Because she was Wán'er's aunt and also a good friend of Bǎozhū and the princess, the JIa family benefited greatly. 。But when it truly came to knowing the trouble the Li family was in, it's doubtful that many in the Jia family would be willing to share the burden!Luo An was still a distance from Xin Du, so by the time Lao San received the news, it was already late at night. 。During this period of time, things were not going well. At night, he was very vigilant. 。The death knell rang again in the city. Everyone in the canteen came out to look, their expressions a bit flustered. 。At this time, Zheng He suddenly arrived. Even a fool could guess that there was something going on at home. 。Zheng He asked Li Laosan to find a quiet room and whispered everything that had happened. Then he said, "Master's meaning is for you to find an excuse and take the villagers back to Suijintang early." 。Whoever wants to go to Quanzhou, just board the ship. 。As for the Seventh Young Master, he must definitely be sent away. As for Young Master Guo and Mr. Wen, they also have something to tell him to go south. 。The Liu family also sent letters to the two young masters, and upon reading them they immediately knew... 。“Alright, I’ll have everyone pack up and head back to Suijin Beach tonight,” Li Lao San said calmly after a moment of silence. 。Mao Ge and his boys slept outside in the small courtyard tonight. I went myself to tell them... 。Zheng He nodded and followed Li Laosan out the door. 。At this time, the door of the cafeteria was knocked. 。It turned out to be Director Zhou's personal attendant, who greeted them with a few pleasantries before saying, "Mr. Li San, the director just met with a few gentlemen..." 。Originally, there were still a few days left before summer vacation. Now that the Empress has passed away, it's decided to start tomorrow instead. All the students will leave and return after a month. 。So, in the dining hall here, it's best not to prepare ingredients, otherwise they will be wasted. 。"Many thanks for making the trip, brother. When you return, tell the headmaster that it's too hot in the daytime and we can't sleep. We might as well tidy up and head back to Suijin Beach." 。If there's anything, please ask the院長 to send someone to Earl's Mansion or Broken Gold Beach. 。Li Laosan took the opportunity to quickly leave, and it was also reasonable. 。Chang Sui didn't think much of it, chatted a few more words and then took his leave. 。Li Lao San immediately called all his men and told them to pack their bags right away, and they would be back to the village soon. 。No one knew what had happened, but it had been several months since they'd come out. They all missed their homes and would be happy to go back and stay for a while. 。Li Laosan was afraid they didn't know the seriousness of the situation and might cause trouble, so he instructed them, "There has been a major upheaval in the village. We'll talk about it when we get back. Be careful." 。Everyone immediately stopped laughing and started working diligently. 。Li Lao San brought Zheng He, and they rushed to the small courtyard all the way. 。Cat brother a few also woke up, sitting under the eaves shaking a fan, guessing if the academy is going to have an early holiday 。As soon as Li Lao San and Zheng He returned, the boys keenly noticed something was amiss. 。
Ma Ge'er pressed his voice and asked, "Third Uncle, is something wrong at home"
Li Lao San nodded and replied, "Something urgent happened at home. We need to evacuate south quickly. Pack up your essentials and come with us."
Having said that, Zheng He also stepped forward and gave the letter and package to Zhi Min and Xiu Jie. 。The two brothers quickly glanced over it. Xiujie immediately refused, anxiously shouting out. 。"No way, I'm not leaving, I want to go home!" Zhimin, however, remained composed. He slapped his younger brother on the back and hissed in a low voice, "Don't be foolish. Since grandpa and our parents have made this arrangement, there must be a reason." 。Even if we stay, we won't be able to help and will only hold you back. 。 In case…in case something happens to our family, as long as we are alive, we have hope. As long as we are alive, we can avenge our family! Xiujie wanted to say more, but his brother pulled him back to pack his things. 。 "Cat-er also wanted to object, but Li Lao San cut him off abruptly, “You must go south, the family has already decided.” 。Besides, only your aunt and sister-in-law took the villagers south. It's simply not feasible. You should help take care of them along the way. 。
Our kid isn't stupid, don't mess things up at this time!
Cat brother clenched his fist, took a deep breath, and turned back to his room.
Li Laosan then patted Guo Wenhao's shoulder and instructed, "Mr. Wen said he wants you to go south with him. There's him in Xindu, so don't worry about it." 。" Guo Wenhao's face was filled with confusion and bewilderment, suddenly like dark clouds blown away by a strong wind. 。Okay, I'll listen to Mr. 。" Today is two updates ~~ and sleep!"Jia Yin blinked her eyes twice, always feeling something was wrong, but she didn't think too much about it. She waved goodbye to the two old men, then climbed the stairs with her short leg...
