The Pastoral Medicinal Fragrance of the Imperial Concubine

Chapter 203: Scourge (1)
It is said that Li Jiu worked at Hao's house for three days and returned home. Mrs. Li couldn't wait long ago. She went to stand at the door every day, looking forward to, and finally hoped for Li Jiu's return this day.

"Why did you come back? Is everything settled?" Mrs. Li asked, ignoring him to catch his breath.

Li Jiu picked up the bowl and scooped a bowl of cold water from the jar to drink, then wiped the water stains from the corner of her mouth and said, "Mom, my in-laws disagree!"

Granny Li was taken aback, and asked, "What? Disagree?"

"It's okay to talk to Leng Ping, but the in-laws don't want it, mother, you too, there is no in-laws living here, not to mention you are Ping'er's grandma, it really can't be justified! Or let's forget about it! Mother, It's not easy for Ping'er, think about it, at that time she thought we were all dead, she was kicked out of the house by Leng Batian with no relatives and no reason, and when she arrived at Hao's house, she suffered so much, and now she is finally able to support herself, We should also be happy, even if the younger sister and brother-in-law are alive, mother, don’t bother, if you think no one will take care of you, or I’ll talk about another daughter-in-law and let the new daughter-in-law take care of you! Come back this time, My in-laws gave me ten taels of silver, but I said no, but she insisted on giving it, and let me marry a wife!" Li Jiu took out the silver.

The old lady Li was taken aback, and was about to hit Li Jiu with the crutches she was leaning on, and said bitterly: "Mother said, mother is for this money? Mother is for..."

"Mom, don't keep saying those things. My sister and I have listened to them for so many years, and that's all. What if they let outsiders hear you and hang you up? Have you forgotten what happened 12 years ago? You go around talking about the world There was going to be a big mess, I was almost dragged to the yamen, and then I was beaten up, if there is no brother-in-law, my mother would have died..." Li Jiu couldn't help interrupting the old lady Li.

The old lady Li was trembling with anger, "Even you think I'm talking nonsense? I..."

"Mother, don't get excited, you..." Li Jiu was about to say something, when she heard a man shouting outside the door, "Excuse me, is this Li's house? Is Lady Li here?"

Li Xiangu is the old name of the old lady Li 20 years ago. Since she came to this Lijia Village 20 years ago, the villagers only know that the old lady Li is a great dancer, so they call her the Goddess Li. Later, the juniors call her Li Po. The name of Pear Fairy has not been mentioned for 20 years!

Upon hearing this address, Old Madam Li's expression changed, she turned her head and walked into the house, saying as she walked, "Jiu'er, tell that person that you have found the wrong house!"

Li Jiu quickly responded and left the house.

There were two people standing outside the fence gate. The one who called out was a young man in green clothes. The other one was in his 30s. With deep eyes and a square forehead, dressed in a light blue and purple lambskin robe, with a stern aura, he is not an ordinary person at first glance.

Li Jiu has seen the world from being a dart outside these years, and seeing that this person is powerful, she immediately smiled and cupped her hands and said, "Both of you, you have found the wrong place, we don't have anything at home. Fairy Pear!"

"How could it be, it's here!" the boy in green affirmed.

"Wu Fu, you may have really found the wrong place!" The man smiled lightly, looked Li Jiu up and down, "Brother, have you ever practiced martial arts?"

Li Jiu was taken aback, and said with a smile, "Your Excellency has good eyesight!"

The man nodded lightly, "Brother, your legs are strong when you act, and you must have practiced for more than ten years, right?"

Li Jiu was taken aback again, and said in admiration, "It's been exactly 12 years since I started practicing martial arts!"

"It's not a child's skill, so I can't improve it!" The man nodded, "But it's not easy to achieve the current achievement!"

Li Jiu unknowingly chatted with the man.

Mrs. Li asked Li Jiu to chase away people, but seeing Li Jiu standing at the door and talking warmly to people, she couldn't help being a little angry, coughing vigorously in the room, and reminded Li Jiu.

Only then did Li Jiu say: "My lord, my mother called me, you can look elsewhere!"

As Li Jiu said, she cupped her fists and turned around to enter the room.

Outside the gate of the fence, the young servant whispered: "Master, the person who was coughing in the room just now is very likely to be that Pear Fairy!"

Situ Zhanchen nodded, "Go to the village to inquire about this family, remember, don't disturb them!"

The boy responded quickly.

At this moment, in the room, Mrs. Li was teaching Li Jiu, "Didn't you tell me to send him away? What do you have to say to him?"

Li Jiu rubbed her head, "That man is a master, he can tell at a glance that I have practiced martial arts for more than ten years, and I am very powerful!"

Mrs. Li slapped the crutch hard and reprimanded loudly: "You are always like this, you won't hide yourself at all. If you were half as smart as your sister, you wouldn't be able to accomplish nothing until now!"

Seeing that Mrs. Li was very angry, Li Jiu hurried forward and said, "Mother, don't be angry, I will remember it from now on!"

Mrs. Li snorted coldly, "It would be great if you could remember!"

Li Jiu had to apologize again.

"If that person comes again, ignore him!" Mrs. Li said again.

Li Jiu quickly responded.

In the inn in Licheng, when Situ Zhanchen entered, he saw Tianhao pouring himself a drink, very excited.

Situ Zhanchen sat down slowly, raised his eyes and asked, "How do you know I'm here?"

Tian Hao put down his wine glass, with a confident smile on his handsome face, "We have been all these years, this king still doesn't know you? It's just that you leave this king in Tiancheng, it's too uninteresting!"

Situ Zhanchen slowly curled his lips, his eyes darkened, "You should understand that I'm doing it for your own good, that person is also your brother!"

"Brother? Zhanchen, although you were not born in the royal family, you have watched the royal family fight for so many years. When did the word "brother" come into being in the royal family?" Tian Hao curled his lips and sneered.

Situ Zhanchen sighed, "No matter what, you should go back first!"

Tianhao picked up the wine glass again, and curled his lips, "If this king just refuses to leave!"

Situ Zhanchen shook his head, he really had nothing to do with Tianhao!

"What happened? Did you find it?" Tianhao suddenly changed the subject.

This time Situ Zhanchen came to Licheng, in addition to wanting to solve the matter of medicinal materials, there was also a secret matter more than ten years ago.

In fact, there are many unattractive small towns like Licheng, there is no need for Situ Zhanchen to come here, and coming here twice or three times makes Tianhao believe that that person is very important to Situ Zhanchen!

Situ Zhanchen didn't want to say more, he just smiled and said, "Drink!"

Tianhao stopped talking and raised his glass.

Three days later, Li Jiu went into the mountains to hunt, and Situ Zhanchen led his men to Lishu Village again.
