Chapter 804
In addition, the remaining furniture in the house is an old cabinet, a wooden table, and a few chairs.

Then, there is a grain jar.

For the rest, there is nothing.

When Li Chengqian looked at the grain tank, the old man Wang Tuozi visibly tensed up.

"Haha, old man, don't be nervous. My family is also quite rich. I just want to see how the families of the old farmers are doing this year!"

Li Chengqian comforted Wang Tuozi with a chuckle.

At the same time, he walked slowly to the grain tank and lifted the wooden board on it.

In the vat, there is still more than half of the vat of rice.

Seeing this, Li Chengqian's eyes lit up.

"At this time of year, the old man's family still has so much surplus food, it's very good, very good!"

The old man's expression was even more tense.

"Little nobleman misunderstood, more than half of these grains are grain seeds from the fields in the coming year, and grain seeds cannot be eaten!"

"Grain?"

Hearing this, a trace of doubt flashed in Li Chengqian's eyes.

"Aye, is there a nobleman at home?"

Suddenly, a concerned greeting came from outside the courtyard.

Afterwards, Li Chengqian saw a strong man with a scar on his face hurried in.

Seeing someone coming, Xue Rengui narrowed his eyes.

But that man paused, and looked at Xue Rengui and the others in surprise.

Immediately, he hurriedly cupped his hands, smiling all over his face.

"I don't know why all the nobles came to the small village of the villain?"

"Da Lang, it's the first time for these nobles to travel far away. They set up camp by the small river outside the village at noon. Out of curiosity, I came in to have a look!"

The old man quickly explained, "Gentlemen, this is the eldest son of the old man's family, Wang Tieshi!"

"Villain Wang Tieshi has seen some nobles!"

The strong man saluted again, and then looked at Li Chengqian who was standing by the grain tank.

"Since it's a curious look, why look at the grain tank?"

"This is naturally curious!"

Cheng Chusi, who had been following Li Chengqian, replied with some dissatisfaction.

"..."

Wang Tieshi was stunned, and a sullen look flashed in his eyes.

It's just that this is his Aye's home, and these rude people seem to be a group of dignitaries, and he dares to cause trouble for him.

I had to apologize for a while.

"Let's go, Gao Ming, I'll go to another house later, don't be annoying!"

Cheng Chusi said.

"I'm bothering my husband!"

Noticing something, Li Chengqian smiled at Wang Tuozi with some embarrassment, and prepared to leave under the protection of Cheng Chusi.

It's just that he just walked out of the door, and he couldn't help but stop for a few days, because Wang Tieshi was staring at Cheng Chusi.

"Why, what else do you have?"

Cheng Chusi asked with a dissatisfied stare.

This familiar words?

A gleam of joy flashed in Wang Tieshi's eyes, and he bowed his hands excitedly.

"It's a pity that General Cheng is in person?"

"Ok?"

Cheng Chusi was startled, squinting his eyes to look at the person in front of him.

"Who are you?"

As for Xue Rengui, he directly protected Li Chenglu behind him.

"The villain, Wang Tieshi, was a pawn in the army of Yanze Dao before. When the battle was under the Tuyuhun capital, Fuqi, the villain followed General Cheng to kill him!"

Wang Tieshi bowed his hands and bowed with joy on his face.

"Are you a soldier in the Yanze Dao army?"

However, what Wang Tieshi didn't understand was that after he finished speaking, the little general Cheng in front of him looked at him with even more vigilance.

"The villain will never dare to lie to the little general about the return journey!" Wang Tieshi said quickly.

"Then do you know Xue Rengui?"

Cheng Chusi asked.

"General Xue?" Wang Tieshi was startled.

Immediately, he couldn't help laughing bitterly, and said: "When the villain was in the army of Yanze Dao, he was just an ordinary soldier. General Xue usually leads a group of musket battalion soldiers, and the villain has only seen it a few times from a distance. General Xue's back, but I don't have the luck to meet General Xue!"

Hearing this, the expressions of Cheng Chusi and Xue Rengui relaxed a little.

The person in front of him should be a soldier in Yan Ze Dao's army?

"Just, why are you at home?"

Cheng Chusi asked.

"Returning to General Cheng, this time our Great Tang King Division captured Tuyuhun, as well as the two countries of Tubo. And my soldiers were also rewarded with a lot of property by the imperial court, and ten acres of fertile land.

It's just that there is only a villain and a boy in the villain's family, and the old father in the family can't farm at all.

So, the villain disarmed and returned to the field. "Wang Tieshi said slowly.

"I see!"

Hearing this, Cheng Chusi, Xue Rengui and others nodded in understanding.

"You live here too?"

On the side, Li Chengqian asked curiously.

"May I ask who this nobleman is?"

A trace of suspicion flashed in Wang Tieshi's eyes. If he read correctly, General Cheng seemed to have been protecting this gentleman just now.

"You can answer whatever you ask, don't inquire about your identity!" Cheng Chusi glared at Wang Tieshi directly.

"Yes!"

Wang Tieshi hurriedly clasped his hands in response, and then replied: "As for this nobleman, the villain usually lives in the next room."

"I didn't give you money, why are you still living in this kind of hut?"

Li Chengqian asked a little puzzled, "Could it be that the money distributed is not enough to build a new house?"

"Returning to the nobleman, the villain has been rewarded with a total of fifty coins for this battle, which is enough to build a big house. After the spring plowing this year, he may be able to marry a mother-in-law.

The villain has already started building the house, which is at the east end of the village, and the villain just came back from there. "

Wang Tieshi said quickly.

"I see!"

Li Chengqian nodded slightly.

"So, how many times does your family eat meat every year?"

"Eat meat?"

Hearing this, Wang Tieshi gave a wry smile, "If the villain is lucky, he can hunt some prey in the mountains and eat some meat. If he can't hunt the prey, he will only be willing to spend twenty pennies every year during the New Year's Eve. Buy some meat in the city to eat!"

"Then what kind of clothes do you wear in winter?"

Speaking of this, Li Chengqian suddenly noticed that Wang Tieshi's worn out burlap clothes with several big holes in front of him.

Then, they fell silent.

Wang Tieshi was not embarrassed about this. He grinned and explained with a smile: "In the past few years, the situation in the villain's house has been getting better and better. Even in winter, the villain can wear several pieces of clothes. It's still warm to sew some rags or feathers and weeds between the two layers of clothes!
If it was placed when the villain was young, some people in the village would often freeze to death in winter. "

Li Chengqian: "..."

"What do you eat every day?"

"Back to my lord, now the villain's family can eat more dross, and every few days, they can have a meal of fine grains!" Wang Tieshi said.

Speaking of this, a sincere smile flashed across his face.

Hearing this, Li Chengqian was silent again.

"Gao Ming, I can go to other people's homes to take a look later!"

Cheng Chusi said quickly.

"Alright!"

Li Chengqian nodded slightly.
