Chapter 18 Who is in charge

Lingzhu Peak.

Legend has it that there is a sacred bamboo in Lingzhu Peak, which once bestowed the mountain people with supernatural power to fight fierce beasts and protect the gods for a tribe.

Of course, as Qianzhu County was included in the territory of the Tang Dynasty and the tribe was naturalized, later generations gradually downplayed this legend, but the name of Lingzhu Peak remained.

In fact, Qianzhu County is famous for its rich bamboo.

The bullock cart stopped in front of a compound at the foot of the mountain.

The yard is surrounded by earthen walls, and inside are several earthen houses covered with a thick layer of thatch.

Through the portal, you can also see chickens and ducks raised inside.

Seeing the ox cart, there was also a tall hound with a sturdy figure and khaki hair, Sahuan ran out.

"Boss Xiaofang, it's getting late now, why don't you come to my house to rest and have a light meal, and Xiaohu and I will take you to the mountain in the afternoon?"

The middle-aged hunter warmly invited Fang Changdao while squatting and rubbing the hunting dog's head.

They set off from the county seat in the morning and walked for two or three hours before arriving at Lingzhu Peak, which is about sixty or seventy miles away from the county seat.

It's not that their footsteps are slow, but that the ox cart can only go so fast.

If you want to go faster, you can only squeeze the strength of the cow.

But this cow is Orion's second son, and he would never treat it badly in normal times.

Fang Chang had nothing to do, nodded and agreed: "Please trouble Uncle Li."

"No trouble, no trouble."

Seeing Fang Chang agree, the middle-aged Orion smiled extremely happily.

Fang Chang didn't dislike the father and son at all. On the contrary, he took care of the good wine and food and warmly entertained them. He remembered it in his heart and thought about how to return it.
"Rhubarb, go and hunt a rabbit back."

When the middle-aged Orion patted the hunting dog on the head, the hunting dog seemed to understand it, and disappeared into the distant bamboo forest in the blink of an eye like an arrow leaving the string.

Seeing the hounds leave, the middle-aged Orion asked his son to feed the cattle, while he went into the house to welcome Fang Chang, and shouted:
"Mother, Boss Xiaofang is here, go kill an old hen, and stew the wild ginseng I kept."

"Shout what!"

"You still know how to go home."

"You count it yourself. You have been away for a few days and you don't come home. My surname is Li. I thought you father and son were seduced by the little goblins in the city!"

Before I saw him, I heard his voice first, and saw a thin woman walking out of the main room holding a dustpan, her face was full of displeasure.

The thin woman looks like an ordinary village woman, about 30 years old, with rough hands, thick joints, and calluses.

However, her complexion is rosy, her hair is black, and her voice is loud. Compared with ordinary village women, she is a little more sturdy.

But otherwise, Orion and his son could not be cured.

The middle-aged Orion looked embarrassed, Fang Chang explained:

"Boss Xiaofang, don't get me wrong. Usually, the girl is very gentle. It's because Xiaohu and I missed the time. She was too worried."

Fang Chang smiled considerately, "Uncle Li, I understand."

At this time, the woman noticed Fang Chang, and her aggressive appearance immediately stopped, and she smiled and said:
"Father, why didn't you tell me when you brought guests over? Young man, you are from the city, you look really pretty.

Ah Xiu!Ah Xiu!

Are you deaf? "

"Mom, I'm listening."

A delicate-looking girl came out of a side room in the courtyard, wearing a long cotton dress, her black hair tied with a silver hairpin, and her hair accessories were quite simple.

"Go to the kitchen to light the fire. The son of the city is here. Take out the tea leaves that your father hid. You will make tea for him later."

The girl glanced at Fang Chang, and softly agreed.

"I see."

"Young man, don't stand there, go and sit inside."

The woman greeted the other party again.

Fang Chang was stunned for a while, only to feel that the woman's aura was extraordinarily strong, so he followed the woman's words and entered the house.

You can tell who it is at a glance.

……

"Damn ghost, you still know how to come back!"

Seeing Fang Chang enter the room, the woman pinched the soft flesh on the middle-aged Orion's waist with her fingers.

The middle-aged Orion's face suddenly wrinkled into a bitter gourd, he hurriedly explained:

"Damn it, it's not my fault, Boss Xiaofang is not at home, we also waited for several days to see him.

Otherwise, Xiaohu and I would have returned long ago.

I assure you, during the few days in the city, Xiaohu and I didn't go anywhere, we stayed in the inn all the time. "

"What? Inn?!"

The woman pinched again, and said unhappily:

"You two are very rich. My mother will take care of the family business for you at home. I dare not spend a penny. You are lucky. You can even live in an inn. How much money will you spend?"

The middle-aged Orion was in pain again, but he didn't dare to resist, and explained again:
"No money, no money, Boss Xiao Fang settled the bill."

"and this."

Saying that, the middle-aged Orion took out the ten taels of silver from his arms.

"There are gifts from your mother and daughter on the bullock cart, and Xiaohu will bring them in later."

As soon as the woman saw the silver, she immediately let go of the middle-aged Orion and snatched the silver with lightning speed.

"Where did you get so much money?"

After all, but the money has already entered her purse, but don't even think about taking it out.

These are his son's bride price and his daughter's dowry.

The middle-aged Orion rubbed his waist, bared his teeth and said:
"The bamboo money given by Boss Xiaofang, this time Boss Xiaofang came here to help solve the scourge of Zizhu."

When the woman heard this, she muttered:

"Boss Xiaofang is the son of Boss Dafang, he is much more generous than his father."

"For those bamboos, how much effort did you and Xiaohu make?"

The middle-aged Orion's face immediately turned serious, and he snorted coldly:
"Boss Dafang is Li Tian's benefactor, I am willing to give him bamboo, even if I don't give him money.

What do you know, you mother-in-law, if you didn't have Dafang Boss, you would have been a widow a long time ago, Xiaohu and Axiu have no father, and you can still be as proud as you are now!

Next time you hear bad things about Boss Dafang, don't blame me, a husband, for being rude to you! "

The woman's face froze, but seeing her husband's expression, she didn't dare to mutter any more, and quickly comforted her:
"I'm the one in charge. I'm the one who talks too much. Don't be angry."

The middle-aged Orion maintained a serious expression, and said lightly:

"Boss Xiaofang took good care of Xiaohu and me when we came to the city this time, so when entertaining Boss Xiaofang, you can't treat him badly and make them laugh at us mountain people who don't know how to behave."

The woman quickly agreed:
"Okay, you go to the room to greet Boss Xiaofang, I will definitely make arrangements for you so that you don't lose face."

"Ah."

The middle-aged Orion nodded calmly.

It was only when he saw the woman went to the kitchen that his feet softened.

Having been a strict wife for half his life, it really made him a little uncomfortable to be tough once in a while.

But this feeling...

Not bad.

The middle-aged Orion walked into the house with the confident steps of a successful person.

"Boss Xiaofang, the courtyard in the countryside is shabby, please take care of me."

Fang Chang looked at the middle-aged Orion who seemed to have a second spring, and his temperament was obviously different, and he was puzzled:

"Uncle Li, is this a happy event for you?"

"It's not a big deal, I just taught that woman a lesson, so I just stayed in the city for a few more days.

Even this has to be taken care of, where is the majesty of my head. "

The middle-aged Orion pretended to be calm.

When Fang Chang heard it, he immediately stood up in awe and said with a thumbs up:
"Uncle Li, you are also a role model!"
