Bamboo Fragrance

Chapter 129 Rejection
"Yes! The master said that the spring is just right now, and I want to enjoy the scenery while walking slowly!" Li Kongzhu took her hand and patted it, "It happens that I also want to see the scenery of various places. Since he is back, and If I want to spend more time with Me and Meatball in this way, I might as well follow his thoughts. After all, Meatball and him have been strangers for many years."

Counting the pregnancy, it has been almost three years, which is one of the reasons why she is willing to agree.

Hui Niang listened, and although she was helpless, she nodded in agreement.

"It will take at least a year or so for you to leave. Alas, it is really difficult for us three families to reunite!" Mai Ya'er and his wife went to Yizhou Mansion, and this time they came back. Two or three days away.In the past two years, it has only happened once during the New Year's Eve and energy saving.On weekdays, when Zhao Mengzi was in a meeting, he would make a trip, but it really became less and less lively.

Sighed, "This business is getting bigger, it may not be good!"

Regarding this point, Li Kongzhu nodded in agreement, "But since it has become big, there is absolutely no reason not to continue! There are a lot of mouths out there, if you don't do it, it will hurt many people. "

"That's true!" Hui Niang nodded, looking at her with a warm smile, "Although life is better now, I always think about the time when we first started our business, we worked so hard, even though we didn't make a lot of money. A lot, but I did everything by myself. At that time, I thought about eating and dressing well after I grew up, and becoming a rich wife. But at this moment, I realized that it is difficult to have leisure when you have money. In the past Often being together and joking around, at this moment, since it will become a luxury!"

She shook her head with a red-eyed smile, Hui Niang patted her hand again and said, "Although you have not confessed to me about many things, you have also been in a big family. It doesn't mean that I take you as an outsider. I know that you are afraid that life is not easy, and this workshop, you have put in more effort than us errands." Said, tears are not conscious flowed down.

"You're going... oh~" Seeming to be unable to continue, Hui Niang sighed, and after she calmed down, she laughed again and patted Li Diaozhu's hand, "And Go with peace of mind! Since the affairs here are left to us to take care of, this time, I will never make the mistake of the year before last again."

"Sister Hui Niang~" Li Kongzhu tightened his hand with her, feeling very touched in his heart.

Although she has never confessed anything to her, but she is as smart as her, and she has already guessed what happened to Zhao Junyi.

After all, there is probably no one other than a man who can let her go across the border and is willing to donate medicine.

Hui Niang shook her head, her heart was as bright as a mirror, "There is no need to say too much, you and I understand it in our hearts."

Li Kongzhu nodded, and murmured some more words with her.

The two women were saying goodbye in the backyard, but Zhao Junyi from the outer courtyard was summoned by the patriarch to accompany Li Chong before he could have a cup of tea.

By the time Li Kongzhu and the others knew about it, it was almost time for lunch.

At that time, Li Kongzhu and Hui Niang went to the kitchen to make lunch in order to re-experience the joy of doing it when they were poor.

The food was very simple, it was steamed buns with dried vegetables, brown rice porridge, and a potato stew.Although not refined, it is full of farm flavor.

At that time, the food was ready, and the two children just came back from playing in the stable in the side yard. Smelling the aroma, they were so greedy that they started calling before they even entered the door.

"Mom, mother~ I'm hungry~"

"I'm hungry too!"

The two children's calls were loud and noisy, as if they were in a competition, each one was louder than the other.

When they yelled and entered the kitchen, Li Kongzhu and Hui Niang's brains were barely torn apart by them.

After taking two buns out of the drawer, Hui Niang even patted her son, "I've never seen you howling like this in rice, rice, and tender meat. Is it fragrant?"

"Hey!" Xiao Linzi was not annoyed by his mother's patting, he hugged the big white bun and shook his head to compare with the meatball over there, seeing that it was bigger than his, he jumped happily.

"Brother Maruko, mine is bigger than yours. Look!"

At this moment, I saw the meatballs that I was eating with a steamed bun. It was really so. I immediately pouted my mouth, jumped and grabbed Li Diaozhu's skirt and called, "Mother, mother, I want to eat it too." big!"

"It's all the same, big or small!" Li Kongzhu was not used to his faults, so he and Hui Niang put the buns in the wooden basin, and started to serve the vegetables again.

No, the two of them had just served the dishes, and when one was serving the buns and the other the porridge, they were about to leave.

Meatball, who was still chirping over here, saw that his mother was holding a basin of steamed buns, and there were so many that she wouldn't give him one, so she couldn't help but start to raise her head, and opened her mouth to cry.

When Li Kongzhu saw it, he immediately turned pale, "Is it a shame? The buns are all the same, so what is the size? If you want to, I won't give you the one in your hand!"

"Wow~ don't~" Jian Niang said that she was really going to grab the meat buns in his hand, the boy couldn't help but burst into tears immediately, and while sobbing, he still tortured her not to let her go. Rob.

Li Diaozhu was just pretending, seeing that he was really crying, he was angry and funny at the same time.

Hui Niang over there also gave her son a sideways glance, "You are an older brother, how can you not let your younger brother down like this. Look, you made my younger brother cry, are you happy? How do you teach you on weekdays? Could it be that you forgot to eat it all?"

When Xiao Linzi saw that he had caused trouble, he was already a little sad, but after being scolded by his mother, he immediately pouted his mouth and began to cry along with Rouwanzi.

"Wow~"

"Wow~"

But at the flick of a finger, the children crying one after another, even more irritating than when they just entered the kitchen to eat.

Li Kongzhu couldn't let go of the pot of steamed stuffed buns, and Hui Niang over there was also holding the pot of porridge being rubbed by the child, afraid of scalding the child, holding it high.

Listening to the baby crying after you sing and I come on stage like a competition, it was the first time for the two of them to feel helpless and angry.They looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

When Li Chong heard crying again, he hurried out of the main hall. "What's going on? I heard you cry from afar!"

When Jieshi's two women heard this sound, their eyes lit up like rescued soldiers.

When Hui Niang saw him stepping into the door, she yelled: "Master, take your son away quickly, let this torturer and disobedient, I am still carrying porridge, what should I do if I want to turn it over?" I let you spoil me a little less on weekdays, but now it’s all right, and the embarrassment will be thrown at other people’s homes.”

Although Li Chong felt speechless at her yelling, he couldn't refute her.

As he was approaching, Xiao Linzi also ran towards him just as he saw him.

"Father~" The kid stretched out his hands aggrievedly and asked for a hug.

After looking at his eyes, Li Chong hugged him up. Seeing that his face was flushed from crying, he couldn't help but wiped his tears with his palm lovingly, "What's going on? Are you crying?"

Xiao Linzi remained silent, and looked at his mother timidly.

When Rouwanzi over there saw his brother being hugged by his father, he stopped crying immediately, and wiped away his little tears with sobs, his pair of little phoenix eyes kept looking outside, thinking, what happened to his father? Didn't come in yet.

When Hui Niang saw her son looking at her, she gave him an annoyed look.

Li Kongzhu on the side didn't want to make things worse, so he hurriedly made peace with the situation, "It's just a kid who is stumbling around, just cry for a while. It's alright, alright, let's serve dinner quickly, it's already noon!"

Li Chong nodded, patted his son in his arms, glanced at his wife, and walked out.

Hui Niang snorted, and complained to Li Kongzhu: "This is for the protection of life. I think I didn't see him like this when I was desperately giving birth. Sure enough, everything is full after having a son. I really think that I am that person." Just the chicken that lays the egg."

Li Kongzhu shook his head amusedly, "Sister Hui, you really wronged Brother Li when you said that. You didn't see him squatting under the eaves, scratching his hair and looking pale. Son, I'm afraid that you may have something wrong."

"Bah!" Hui Niang spat, blushing, "He's afraid of becoming a widower again!"

Li Kongzhu was speechless for a moment.

When I walked away with the buns, I felt something was wrong.

Looking down, I saw the meatball who was still arguing just now, but now it's gone.

He shook his head with a smile, "This kid~"

The woman who thought the kid was going to be sunny, after laughing, went out of the kitchen with Hui Niang, and began to set the meal formally.

And when he ran out to look for the meatballs that his father didn't find, after turning around, he stopped doing it again.

"Mom~mother~where is daddy!"

At that time Li Kongzhu was also going to set up the meal, seeing Li Chong and his son sitting alone in the main room, he was also curious to ask.

Hearing what his son said, he looked at Li Chong.

Li Chong comforted his son and let him go to the ground. Hearing what he said, he explained, "I was called away by a man surnamed Zhao not long after I came here, saying that I was going to the patriarch's house. Brother Zhao said If you don't come back during lunch, tell your siblings that you don't have to wait for him!"

At that time, the two of them were staying in the backyard. The servants of the two families were busy packing things and helping at the same time, but no one noticed the front yard.He was also a man of few words, so naturally he would act as Zhao Junyi explained.

When Li Kongzhu heard this, he was taken aback for a moment, thinking about the man's attitude towards the patriarch when he went to the patriarch's house for the first time a few years ago to give gifts.

I also guessed that Zhao Junyi might have some agreement with the patriarch, and now that he was called away at this time, could it be time to honor it?
Thinking of this, the woman wanted to go and see for herself.

But there are guests at home...

Hui Niang seemed to see her thoughts, and complained about her man's slowness.

Then he walked to Li Kongzhu's side and patted her, "If you are worried, go and have a look. They are all from my family, so don't be so polite!"

Li Kongzhu smiled gratefully, straightened his clothes and looked at them and said: "Then I'll go back, you guys eat first, if we haven't returned after half an hour, put the food in the hot pot for us!"

"Understood!" Hui Niang waved her hand and pulled her out, "Hurry up! I don't have any good intentions when I look at this group of people. How can someone be invited to sit in the clan the next day after returning. I'm afraid You want to make a bargain, you can't be stupid again, anyone with eyes can see the changes in the Zhaojia Village in the past two years, and you can't let them go any further."

Li Kongzhu nodded, and when he was about to walk out quickly, he didn't want Rouwanzi to leave when he saw her, so he rushed over and grabbed her pant leg and shouted, "Mother~Mother~Where are you going~"

"Mother went to find your father and come back!" Li Kongzhu had no choice but to touch his little head, "You obediently put this here to play with brother Lin Zi for a while, after dinner, mother and father will come back, ah~"

"No, I'm going to look for Daddy too!" Xiaoer Laijiao felt that if his mother were to leave too, he would be far behind Brother Linzi.Elder brother Linzi has daddy's hug, but he doesn't, so he doesn't want it.

Hui Niang watched from the side and bent over to coax him, but she didn't want the boy to twist his body, and insisted on following him if he insisted on quitting.

Li Kongzhu was annoyed, and he was also worried about Zhao Junyi's affairs, so he had no choice but to hug him, "Let's go! If you want to cry after watching something you shouldn't watch, be careful of me." beat you!"

The kid got his wish, and while wiping his tears, he nodded his head coquettishly and promised: "I won't cry!"

"I'm afraid it won't work, it's better to keep the meatballs here!" Hui Niang gave her a wink when she heard it.As for the child, she thought she would just cry for a while, and after coaxing it, it passed.

Li Kongzhu shook his head, "Follow him!" No one knows her son better than her.If you really want to cry, if you don’t have your relatives by your side, even ten cows will not be able to coax you back.

After saying hello, she opened the door and walked out with the meatballs.

Seeing this, Hui Niang at the back had no choice but to go to the backyard at the end, calling the two mothers and daughters of the Yu family who were still tidying up, and asked them to bring one out and order Li Diaozhu.

Here, Li Kongzhu hurriedly came to the house where the patriarch lived with meatballs in his arms.

Seeing that the door was wide open, he stretched his neck and took a look inside.

Looking at this, he couldn't help frowning.

In the patriarch's courtyard, the clan members surnamed Zhao stood all over the courtyard, not to mention, there seemed to be quite a few people sitting in the open door of the main hall.

"Daddy~" Seeing her mother looking at her, Rouwanzi thought she was looking at his father, stretched his neck to follow him, and at the same time called out his father.

With this call, the other people standing in the courtyard all followed and looked towards this side.

Li Kongzhu glanced around with them, and quickly sized up these people.

Seeing that most people have ugly faces and dissatisfied eyes, they can't help but feel a sinking heart.

Holding the meatball, he pressed his little head against the socket of his shoulder for fear that he would be afraid.

He didn't want meatballs but he didn't want her to hold them down. While avoiding her with his head up, he looked in and called out, "Daddy~"

"Who is coming?" A deep and familiar old voice came.

Li Kongzhu walked up the steps outside the yard following Rouwanzi's twist, and said towards the inside: "It's my patriarch, I'm here to find the head of the family and go home for dinner!"

"So it's Lao San's place!" The old man inside pretended to hear it, "Then come in quickly! Lao San may have to wait a while before going back to eat!"

"No need! I'll be right back!" Before the old man's voice fell, a faint male voice followed.

As the words fell, the man had already stepped out of the main room, standing under the eaves, his eyes were looking straight at the two mother and son who entered the courtyard.

"Daddy~" As soon as the child saw him, he immediately twisted his body to seek his hug.

Seeing this, the man exchanged glances with the woman, and after seeing the woman nodding, he strode down the higher steps.

When the two met, the woman handed her son to him.

As soon as the child came into his father's arms, he acted coquettishly and filed a complaint, "Daddy, mother will bring big buns for brother Lin and small buns for me. Mom, scold~"

"Who are you scolding?" The man saw him hugging his neck with his mouth pouted, so he lifted his little butt with one hand and gave him a comfortable position!
"Call on Wanzi!" The child was magnanimous, "Wanzi is crying!"

Holding his little hand in the palm of his hand and shaking it, the man glanced at the woman, as if accusing.

The woman glared at him angrily, "The buns are all the same, you have to get a bigger one, and you have to change them after you've eaten them all. Is it worth changing them for him? After getting used to the addiction, if you look at What’s so good, you want everything, can you get him back everything?”

As he spoke, he casually glanced at the main room above, "The emperor still has some time to get it. Could it be that if he can't get it, he wants to use it by force? Get used to it now, and grow up later." , went out, met someone who was stronger than him, and couldn't beat him to death?!"

A smile flashed in the man's eyes.

Seeing his mother talking loudly, the child shrank his neck in fear, and put his arms around his father's neck and said aggrievedly, "Mother is fierce~ I'm afraid."

Zhao Junyi patted his buttocks, "Man, don't cry when you're upset."

"Hmm~" Regardless of whether he understood or not, the kid who was scared by his mother at the moment, in order to continue to rely on his own father, naturally he said what and what it was!
The voice of the three members of their family made all the members of the Zhao family who were looking at them look ugly after hearing it.

Even the patriarch sitting in the high hall of the hall came out.

After hearing this, and looking at their family of three, a hint of annoyance flashed in their shrewd eyes, "Third brother, are you really going to say nothing?"

Zhao Junyi turned around with the child in his arms, looked at the old man, and his phoenix eyes were heavy, "It's not that Jun's words don't count, if it's repairing the dictionary hall, and then repairing the ancestor's tomb, with the money Jun's wife earns now, it's a trivial matter One thing. It’s really hard to do it, Mr. Jun, to have thousands of hectares of fertile land and honor our ancestors. It’s a blessing in misfortune to be able to come back. Old man, you have already guessed what I did, so you’re thinking about it When you were young, you should know that the army that moved the division back to the court never mentioned who the leader is. Moreover, the emperor's personal conquest is known to all the people. Therefore, you are always looking forward to adding meritorious service and becoming a noble. It’s impossible to think about it. Compared with the past, Jun today is just a businessman’s husband!”

After hearing this, the old man at the head looked at him coldly for a long time without being moved, "The current sage is benevolent. I think you have made meritorious deeds, so you will not bury it. Third child! People, sometimes you have to keep your promises! Didn't you also say that a man is a real man? Could it be possible that you can flip through the matter of spitting and nailing at will?"

Is this trying to force him?

Zhao Junyi clenched his lips coldly, "If I came back safely and smoothly, and if I was awarded the title in a serious manner in front of the world, I naturally have no reason to refuse to break my promise. But now, my life is no longer mine. , I'm afraid I won't accept this seal!"

Life is not his, what do you mean?
The clan elder frowned, thinking about his plans for many years, is it really going to be reduced to nothing in this dynasty?
You know, now is a good time for the Zhao family to stand up. If they miss it, when will the next time they wait for the Zhao family to rise to the top?
The clan elder's eyes sank, and the crutches he was leaning on also hit the ground hard.

Li Diaozhu could hear something here.

I dare say they are waiting here, wanting to wait for Zhao Junyi to be appointed an official and a nobleman, and Guangzong will glorify their Zhao family ancestors.Not only that, but if a man really becomes a general in the future, he will reward thousands of hectares of fertile land with countless gold and silver, how dare he give this fertile land to them?

This is the rhythm of wanting to be the leader of the clan and make the Zhao family bigger!

It's such a shameless condition!Why did Zhao Junyi agree so easily?

The woman turned her eyes to stare at the man in disbelief, only to see the man curl his lips with a wry smile.

Can he say that at the beginning he saw no hope of revenge, but just wanted to find a place to live, so he just said it casually?

But obviously such a short-brained thinking cannot be exposed in front of women.

Coughing uncomfortably, the man grabbed her hand with his other free hand and signaled her to go quickly with his eyes.

Li Kongzhu nodded, and when he was about to lift his foot, the sound of the upper crutch hitting the ground sounded again.

As a last resort, the two looked at their superiors together again.

But seeing the patriarch's eyes darken, looking at them, the words almost fell out of his teeth, "You want to take my clansman surnamed Zhao, and you can't play with it like a child? Third, after you have been away for more than two years You can ask your mother-in-law, I, Zhao Youqing, when she was persecuted by the second house of the big house, did I protect the two houses unfairly? Now the two houses have left the village for more than two years. Whether they live or die outside, I The Zhao family didn't inquire at all. With your ability, you don't know about it!" Do you really think he is old and confused?Is there something weird about this village that he really doesn't know?

He was able to guess his affairs based on the fact that he ran away with Li Kongzhu during the border war and was involved with the royal family.It is not difficult to know that there are people who know martial arts strangely in this village.

He said that he escaped from the dead, but with the current emperor's strong support for their workshop, will no one report the letter to the emperor?

He said that he would not grant the reward that he could obviously get, did he really treat them like monkeys?
Although I saw his extraordinary background back then and thought about him, but in order to let him have a place of peace of mind, and also to let the old head Zhao support him, the clan was so rich at that time, I still forcibly squeezed out ten taels of silver, as the capital to support Old Zhao.

Regarding these, he was able to bear it with peace of mind.If it was said that they went too far and wanted to repay their kindness, he would have refused to come here at all.

Since you promised, you shouldn't go back on your word.

"The patriarch's kindness, Jun is naturally grateful, but it's a matter of fact, one size is one size, Jun has also said that this life is no longer belonged to Jun, and Jun has no right to freely control it. If the master does not allow me to grant Feng, even if I die, I will definitely not grant it!"

That's it again!

The old man was furious, "Even if you use an excuse, you can also use a reliable one. You said that your life is not yours, you have a master. So now, how did you come back so freely?"

"I am his master!"

Before the old man finished speaking, a cold female voice interrupted him.

Everyone was startled when they heard that, waiting to find the reputation, they all opened their mouths in unison.

It was precisely because it was none other than Li Kongzhu who was standing next to the man and holding hands with him.

"Nonsense!" The patriarch took the lead to look back, seeing the woman and immediately yelled angrily, "You are a woman, as a wife, you dare to say such rebellious words. Even if you have that shocking talent, with this Even if the Husband Master makes you a slave, even if he abandons you and whips you, you will not be able to resist!"

As he said that, the old man leaned on the stick vigorously again, looking at her as if he wanted to eat her.It seemed that if she dared to say another word of nonsense, people would whip her immediately.

Li Kongzhu was not afraid, looked at him, and smiled happily.

"What are you laughing at!" Someone in the courtyard said without anger.

As soon as these words fell, everyone who was silent at that time also started to glare at her one after another.

Li Kongzhu snorted, "Whip me? Is it up to you? To put it bluntly, if I lose my hand at everyone's workshop at this moment, the next moment, I can bring you back to a more difficult situation than before. Do you believe me?" Do you believe it or not?"

"Drop everyone's workshop?" Everyone was shocked when they heard it.

All the elders in the first hall finally followed suit now.

Hearing this, the patriarch was shocked in his heart, but he let out a cold expression on his face, "Everyone's workshop? Old Sanjia, do you really think we are fools? Who doesn't know what you are doing now? It's not inferior to that imperial merchant, if you lose everyone's workshop, don't you lose yourself?" For the hundreds of them, can she be willing to pay such a big capital?
If he said that he would not cooperate with them, he would still believe it, and let everyone lose his hand?What a big joke!

The patriarch's words immediately resonated with the startled crowd, who also felt that it was impossible.

However, there are also those who are smart, who seem to have thought of the checkpoints. Although it is honorable for the powerful clan, it is not very beneficial for some distant clansmen.

Nowadays, most of the Zhao family members are benefited from everyone's workshop. I'm really afraid that after this incident, people won't want to cooperate anymore.

While thinking about it, most of the people who were glaring angrily before lowered their heads and started to stay out of the matter.

Li Diaozhu raised his chin indifferently, "Don't believe me?" He snorted, "I think everyone knows that I'm going to the trade zone to open a new workshop, and I also signed a crop contract with Nayun Country. The patriarch thinks that I can swallow such a big deal by myself?"

The patriarch was shocked when he heard it, as if he had thought of something, he was about to open his mouth.

But I heard the woman say coldly again: "I don't want to tell you that everyone's workshop has already changed hands. Now I'm just doing hard work for others, and the silver I got is far gone. There are so many in the past. People value my talents and let me continue to be a shareholder in that respect. But if I don’t want to do it, I will lose my hand. The elders feel that the people behind the scenes can let go of the future His God of Wealth offended you?"

This is not just about being noisy, it is related to the imperial power.

If you offend the imperial power, even if you go to prison, it will be light.If Jieshi made any more random excuses, then wouldn't the people with the surname Zhao in Zhaojia Village cease to exist?
Thinking of this, the patriarch couldn't help sweating down his back.

However, Li Kongzhu turned around at this moment, "The fact that the head of the family can come back has nothing to do with me being reduced to a worker. Master, the water is deep here. Since the head of the family is unwilling to grant the title and fulfilled the promise, I am afraid that I don't want to. Stirring you in. This shallow talk has the advantage of shallow talk, after all, there are some things, the more you know, the more dangerous it will be."

After Li Kongzhu finished speaking, he turned his head and glanced at the man.

Seeing the man curling his lips, he gave him an annoyed look, "Don't leave yet!"

"Let's go now!" Holding her tender big palm tighter, the man followed her anger, hugged her with one hand, and pulled her with the other, and walked quickly to the outside of the courtyard.

Behind him, Patriarch Zhao has completely turned pale.

Some of the elders who followed along with understanding sighed and shook their heads at the same time, "At the beginning, I only thought that he was either rich or noble, but I never expected to stir up such an abyss. Patriarch, this wealth is not to be enjoyed!"

An elder agreed, looking at the mountain peach blossoms blooming in front of the door, "Actually, that's good too. We're not having a bad time now. The grandchildren can read books, the children have jobs, and the fields are full of crops for a year." There is not much left, why do you have to earn that thousand hectares of fertile land, and get an official title?"

"That's right, the matter of honoring our ancestors should be left to the children of the Zhao family to work hard! It's time for you and me to enjoy our blessings."

Everyone persuaded each other one by one, but Patriarch Zhao seemed to be stunned, standing there with a pale face, unable to recover for a long time.

And here Li Kongzhu and Zhao Junyi couldn't help letting out a big sigh of relief as soon as they left the patriarch's courtyard, "It's really unlucky, one or two of them don't know how to fucking stop, really, this persimmon is not soft , I don’t know how to change it? Is it true that perseverance can make your wish come true?”

Saying that, he turned his head to look at the person with particularly bright phoenix eyes at this moment, "Are you stupid? Aren't you usually cold and shrewd? Why did you agree to this in a twitch?" So Unfair thing?Can he bear it too?Isn't he very powerful?The original Zheng family, Li Meilan and Zhao family brothers, which one is his opponent?

The more she thought about it, the more angry the woman was, she put one hand on her waist and groaned for a long time, and finally came back to her senses, seeing that the man still had a happy face, she couldn't help being annoyed again.

Looking down, seeing that the hand was still being held by him, she shook it hard again, "Let it go!" She didn't want to be held by someone with twitching brains, thinking about this would make her angry.

The man let her shake him off, not only did he not let go, but he squeezed her tighter and tighter.

Getting angry with her was rare, and it was still for him.While the man was happy, he was also vicious and wanted to see how fierce she was for himself for a while.

The woman over there was so pinched by him that her hands hurt, and she couldn't shake her off even when she saw her dead. She couldn't help feeling even more angry, "Zhao Junyi, are you deaf? I'll let you go!"

"Don't let go!" He would never let go in this life.At the same time as the man answered, that flat smile appeared again.

The woman looked annoyed, but because of his shimmering smile, the eccentric boss began to agitate uncontrollably.Seeing that he couldn't break free and his face started to turn red, he couldn't help being more and more annoyed at his uselessness.

The child sitting on his father's strong arms hugged his father's neck, buried his head next to his father's handsome face, blinked his watery little phoenix eyes, looked at his mother, and then at his father who smiled very beautifully .

After thinking about it, the child shrunk his small shoulders and turned to his father's ear, muttering: "Daddy~ Mommy is fierce!"

The man looked back, and saw that he was blinking his little phoenix eyes seriously, and his thin pink lips that were smiling were getting bigger and bigger.

"Yeah!" Shrugged the child up, and after the man answered this, he continued to turn his head straight, pulled the woman with a blushing face, and continued heading home in a good mood go.

After the group came back and had dinner with Hui Niang's family who were waiting for them, the two families began to discuss some matters again.

Li Kongzhu was afraid that it would take a long time to go, so he didn't plan to bring Yu's mother and daughter with him.

When she planned to go to the border during the introduction, she started a newcomer.The family affairs are completely entrusted to the trusted Yu family to take care of them.

The mother and daughter of the Yu family disagreed with her decision.

Yu Jiadi thought that since he wanted to buy someone, it would be better to keep an old man on each side.In this way, during the period of learning, the newcomers will not have the time to be inattentive to the master.

Yu Jiadi wanted his daughter to follow Li Kongzhu as usual, so that Li Kongzhu could use it easily and the meatballs would be familiar.On the road, it will be much easier for Li Kongzhu.

For Yu Jiadi's proposal, Li Kongzhu didn't think about it.

But now Yu Xiaoling is no longer young, if he goes to the border with her to stay for a year or so, he will be one year older.

Since their family of four were all in the village, Li Kongzhu didn't want to separate them for too long, and he didn't want to find someone too far away for Yu Xiaoling.

It's not that she doesn't want to let go of the deed, it's because they are all mothers, and they can understand the heart of keeping their children away.Instead of thinking about it for a long time, it is better to choose to let your children stay close to you.Even if they are unemployed, the elders don't want to see them being wronged outside for many years.

Beckoning for Yu Jiadi to approach, he took her hand and patted it, "Don't worry, Auntie, I still have a sword with me. Although I am a thick-handed and thick-footed person, she often carries meatballs. It saved me a lot of trouble. As for my own size, I have nothing to do with this trip, and it just gives me time to train newcomers!"

"But……"

Yu Jiadi wanted to say something more, but was stopped by Li Kongzhu quickly, "Auntie, your family has been with me for a short time, but I know everything about you. I don't want to pretend to be strangers in this family anymore. Uncle Yu and younger brother are here, do you really have the heart to let Xiaoling go with me to the extreme north again? This trip, even I am not sure about the time, Xiaoling is not young, you Could it be that you want her to marry far away?"

"Girl..." Yu Xiaoling squirmed when she heard that, but she didn't want to get married at all.

Although Yu Jiadi said he was reluctant, how could a slave just follow his own heart?

"Our family regards the girl as the master, and the master arranges it as soon as he sees it is convenient. Regarding Xiaoling's matter, the girl is the master, so what should be done, and I ask the girl to just be the master. Don't worry about what the old servant's family will think, As a servant, one should share worries and solve problems for the master!"

Li Kongzhu was helpless, knowing that slavery is a product of this world, and it is not her turn to change it easily.Sometimes there is still a class that should be there. If the mind is too frank and the heart is soft, there will be some behaviors of slaves and bullies.

Although I feel pity in my heart, I can't be weak on the face that I should have.

Nodded, and patted her hand again, "If that's the case, follow my first arrangement. Xiaoling is old, so I can't take care of her while I'm gone, and you and Uncle Yu can take a look at the workshop later. Or maybe there is a matching young man in the village. If Jie Shi is interested, if the other party doesn't want her to be a slave, he can redeem the contract with the same amount of silver as when she sold her body back then."

"Girl~" Yu Jiadi couldn't believe it.

Li Kongzhu smiled lightly and nodded, "Everything is up to your wishes!"

Yu Jiadi's eyes were red, but Li Kongzhu's face immediately turned serious, "Of course, all of this is based on your loyalty!" They are loyal to her, so naturally she will not lose them.

Everyone understands this truth. Looking at the hand holding her, he couldn't help crying, "Don't worry, girl, there is a girl who really cares about the old slave's family, the old slave Even the whole family will not hesitate to do so!"

"Why is it so serious?" Li Kongzhu shook his head, seeing that she was still planning to kowtow, he quickly pulled her up.

After calming her down, the woman told Hui Niang and the others about the upcoming itinerary.

The itinerary was originally scheduled for tomorrow with Zhao Junyi, and the matter of buying slaves was also planned to be finished today, but I didn't expect that while welcoming Hui Niang and the others, there would be an incident in the Zhao family.

Therefore, the departure matter had to be temporarily postponed for another day.

That night, Hui Niang's family stayed here.

On the second day, after having dinner, the two families went to the town together again.

When they came to the town, following Li Chong's introduction, Li Kongzhu and Zhao Junyi chose two little girls who were around thirteen or fourteen at the tooth shop.

Because Zhao Niqiu was also going to the trade zone, and several drivers were needed, so Li Kongzhu picked three middle-aged people who were nearly forty years old, and a boy who was about ten and a half years old.

As for the half-child, Li Kongzhu was going to let him be Zhao Niqiu's schoolboy.

After buying people, they have to be named.

The two girls were born in July and March.

Li Kongzhu didn't bother to think of names and gave them the names of July and March.

And the middle-aged boy, because he was a farmer who had just been sold, was called Shi Yu in the country. Li Kongzhu felt that this name was acceptable, so he didn't want to change it, so he used the old name.

The other three middle-aged people have also used their names for many years, and their surnames are Jin, Mo, and Jiang.Li Diaozhu didn't change the names of several people, they all used the old characters.

After the matter of the name was resolved, when they went to the house where Hui Niang and the others lived, Li Kongzhu handed over the few people to the Yujiadi who came with him, and asked her to explain some basic rules to them for the time being. The rest is to wait for her to go out and then slowly train her.

After having lunch at Hui Niang's place, and telling her parting words for a while, he left home.

Unexpectedly, the moment they arrived home, besides Yu Xiaoling, Li Jingzhe also came to open the door.
