Chapter 15 The mystery of Old Man Li’s identity

She had many guesses in her mind. She originally thought she was just an ordinary peasant woman, but it seemed that the father of peasant woman Li Xiaoyue was not an ordinary person.

Li Xiaoyue was confused, and Li Sanqiang and Liu Changfu were also puzzled.

But Brother Li seemed very calm and seemed to know the truth.

Soon, Li Xiaoyue understood that her eldest brother was the eldest son, and there were secrets in the family. Her father would not tell her or anyone else, but he would definitely tell his eldest son.

Forget it, since my father didn't say it, it proves that there is no need to say it.

At this stage, she should go back first and convert the business opportunities she has discovered into money, which is the most important thing.

With so many people being kind to her, Li Xiaoyue must also try her best to be kind to the relatives around her.

In addition, when she becomes stronger, she will have the strength to deal with Liu Yunde's scumbag ex-husband.

At the same time, Goatee looked at their leaving figures, grimaced at Major General Huo Yingjie not far away, shook his head and sighed.

This major general is the young man who just competed in the ring.

"Major General, the boy who was in the ring just now does Li Jiaquan. It looks like the old man's body shape, but he doesn't admit it."

Major General Huo Yingjie waved his hand, his eyes following the figures that were getting further and further away.

"Mr. Gongsun, don't be anxious. There must be hidden secrets about what happened back then. Fortunately, the future is long and there will always be time to continue."

Mr. Gongsun sighed, "What the Major General said is true. The Qi State has not launched a major invasion of our town of Xiguan for 11 years. According to the usual practice, once the weather is bad and the cattle and sheep die, that's when they take action."

"After the old general returned to the capital, the imperial court sent General Liu over. Now he has an army of [-] in his hands. He also gave us a hard job of organizing and training a new army of [-], but only gave us [-] in food and grass. Where can I find such a huge vacancy?”

Huo Yingjie was also worried, "Fortunately, I made 10,000+ silver this time, which should last for half a year. I will send a letter to the capital to report to the court."

Hearing this, Mr. Goatee Gongsun shook his head and smiled bitterly, "If it were useful, we wouldn't have to sell salt here. Major General, we still have to make plans in advance."

"As the emperor gets older, the capital has reached a stage where all the demons are fighting for power. The old general's remarrying to the princess still doesn't make the court feel at ease. Now the old general and his family are staying in the capital directly, under the old emperor's nose."

"The Huo family guarded the town of Xiguan and have been loyal all these years, so there was no chaos on the border and the city wall was not breached. If it were not for the tens of thousands of soldiers who went through life and death, I really wanted to ignore it and let the court wait for the city to be conquered by Qi State. Fight against those who only use their butts to determine their heads."

Huo Yingjie, who had a handsome face, smiled and said, "Yes, sometimes I think so too, but my father said that the Huo family cannot be disloyal to superiors and unjust to subordinates. We have suffered in the middle. No matter how hard it is, we have to do it." ah."

"Don't worry, there will be a road before the car reaches the mountain. Maybe there will be a turnaround in the future. Let's do the things at hand first. By the way, Mr. Gongsun, have you chosen the new training location?"

Mr. Gongsun replied: "Okay, in Dongshan, there is a village not far away called Lihua Village. There used to be a Shinie Mine there, and there was an iron mine not far away. However, it has been completely developed, and some stone houses remain. After cleaning it up and surrounding it with a wall, we can train troops there.”

Huo Yingjie nodded, "Time waits for no one. Recently, [-] troops have been transferred away, and another [-] troops have been transferred from other places. The combat effectiveness will inevitably be greatly reduced."

"The [-] new recruits we have trained will become the key to victory. We cannot be careless or waste time."

"Yes, Major General." Mr. Gongsun agreed. The matter is of great importance and we must speed up.

At this time, Li Xiaoyue didn't know that Lihua Village would form a small market town due to the arrival of these [-] recruits, and her plan to make money was advanced again.

When Li Xiaoyue and others returned to Lihua Village, it had been dark for a long time.

Wu Cuihong was worried and led her daughter Liu Daya to wait at the door, staring at the intersection.

Seeing the torch, Wu Cuihong was pleasantly surprised and said, "My mother and Changfu must be back."

Liu Daya was also very happy, "Mom, I miss grandma! If grandma is home, she can eat eggs." I cooked two eggs today, but Liu Goudan snatched them both away.

Wu Cuihong touched her daughter's face, feeling guilty, "Da Ya, it's all my mother's uselessness!"

Liu Daya shook her head, "Mom, from now on we will have grandma in charge, and no one will bully us anymore!"

"Yes!" Wu Cuihong nodded, dreaming that her mother-in-law would always be like this and never change back to the way she was before.

Li Xiaoyue arrived at the door of her house, jumped off the donkey cart, and saw Wu Cuihong and Liu Daya waiting at the door.

"Can adults bear the cool wind at night in spring, but can children bear it?"

When Liu Changfu heard what his mother said, he glared at Wu Cuihong, "If Daya gets sick, I won't beat you!"

But as soon as Liu Changfu finished saying this, his back was hit hard by Li Xiaoyue.

"I just said that because I was concerned about Cuihong and Daya in case they got sick."

"As a husband, you don't know how to care about your wife and children, and you will beat her if you open your mouth or shut up! Did your grandpa teach you kung fu and let you beat your wife?"

"Mom..." Liu Changfu looked puzzled and scratched his head. In the past, when he looked at his mother, she was very happy!

Li Xiaoyue glared at her eldest son and said, "If you let me see you do something to your wife in the future, or say something nasty to your wife again, I will beat you ten times harder."

"You are so old, but you still don't understand that besides me, your wife and children are the closest to you in this world!"

"Don't stand like a pile of wood here. Get the cow and the two sheep to the shed quickly."

When Liu Changfu heard what his mother said, he didn't dare to stay here for fear of being beaten by his mother.

He quickly drove the cattle and sheep to the backyard and entered through the back door.

Wu Cuihong hurried forward and sincerely thanked her mother-in-law for her love and care.

"Mom, uncle, I rolled out the noodles and heated the hot water. The noodles will be cooked quickly!"

Old man Li felt relieved when he saw his daughter discipline his son and treat his daughter-in-law well.

If you blindly treat your daughter-in-law, you will suffer the consequences when you are old and can no longer move.

"No, Changfu's wife. Your aunt has probably cooked some food at home. Let's go home and eat!"

Li Xiaoyue quickly took out the money and handed it to Old Man Li.

The price of cattle is cheap today, so Old Man Li bought one more for Li Xiaoyue.

Two cows, a cow and a bull, both adult cows, cost ten taels of silver. Two lambs, one male and one female, cost one tael of silver. The total cost was 11 taels of silver.

"Dad, I won't pay you for your hard work. This is 11 taels of silver."

Old Man Li accepted it, not wanting to push around with his daughter. He would help her when she needed money in the future, "Okay, it's been a tiring day. Go back and eat and rest."

As soon as he said this, he heard Village Chief Li coming over, "Heizi, come to my house quickly. I have something to discuss with you."
