Bamboo Fragrance

Chapter 92 Injured
When Chen Baisheng saw the two people coming, he was very surprised.

But after hearing what the two of them said, I felt even more shocked.

When Wang, who was off work due to the rain, heard this, she was so shocked that she couldn't even get her sewing needle right, and it stabbed into the flesh of her finger.

She didn't care about sucking blood and looked at the two with wide eyes, "Want to buy the land on the southern hillside?"

"Yeah." Li Kongzhu nodded, and pulled Hui Niang out to stand against him, "My sister said that she is optimistic about that piece of land, and she wants to buy it and build a house when it arrives?"

"Building a house?" Chen Baisheng and his wife became even more confused, "The place is very remote. If you buy a house and build a house, you won't be free and lonely."

Hui Niang also looked at her suspiciously, didn't they buy it to grow peaches?

Li Kongzhu winked at her.

Hui Niang felt sorry, coughed and said, "Yes! We are going to build a house there."

"Even if you build a house, you won't need the whole area, right?" Chen Baisheng didn't want to be fooled. He frowned as he watched the two of them, "If you two understand, what are you going to do?"

"Chen Lichang, it is true that we want to build a house, but it is a secret matter." Hui Niang knew that Li Kongzhu was afraid of preaching, so she put on airs and smiled politely. Chief Chen understands."

Mrs. Wang poked her man and murmured to him, "The mountain has been deserted for a long time and nothing can be grown. It is not very useful. If they have money to buy and build a house, just sell it to them. Ask What do you do so much?"

"At that time, you can go to the village and ask to see who wants to sell it. It's better to keep a few liang of it than to throw it in your hands all year round and have no use for it!"

Chen Baisheng nodded when he heard this, and then turned his eyes to look at the two of them and said, "Let me take two days for this matter. I have to ask other people in the village. If I want to sell it, I have to discuss how to sell it."

Hui Niang was anxious, afraid that people would find out later, when she was about to argue, she saw Li Kongzhu secretly pulling her sleeve, exerting strength silently.

Quickly calmed down and said: "If the price is reasonable, there will be no change!"

Wang said with a smile on the side: "That place is not worth any money, don't worry, it won't cost much!"

"Since that's the case, then I'll thank Li Xiang for his help first." After Hui Niang said, she quickly got up and saluted the two of them.

Mrs. Wang let out an ouch and asked her to get up quickly.

Then he smiled and asked a few more questions, asking whether Li Diaozhu was involved in what she said.

Li Kongzhu pursed his lips and chuckled, "Naturally, my business is all with Sister Hui."

After hearing this, Mrs. Wang's eyes flickered, and then she asked her in a concerned manner, "By the way, how are the peach branches on your mountain?"

"It's still the same, the time is short, and I can't see anything yet!" Li Kongzhu smiled indifferently, "This is just trying to play, if it really succeeds, it will make a lot of money. If it doesn't succeed, it won't work." In the way, anyway, we are preparing to find another way.”

When Wang heard that she was still the same, she breathed a sigh of relief, and then said regretfully: "It's still a pity!"

"I don't know yet, so I have to wait January and February."

Mrs. Wang laughed, "How can there be something that waits for January and February? If you can live, you can see it in a few days."

Li Diaozhu made a shy expression, "I have never planted land before, I don't know."

Wang Shi laughed, but she thought in her heart that it was because she didn't understand that she lost her money for nothing.

After all, he is still the second in command!
After coming out of Chen Baisheng's house, Hui Niang asked her a little worriedly, "Tell me, will someone find out?"

"No." Li Kongzhu shook his head, "The buds are only a few days old? They haven't grown at all, they are small, and they are already wet after raining. How can it be so easy to tell if you don't look carefully? Don't worry. I guess Aunt Wang will come to greet us as soon as tomorrow is over."

After hearing this, Hui Niang let out a breath, and temporarily asked her if she had enough money, and if not, she would go back to town now to get the money ready for the land purchase.

But Li Kongzhu held her back, and said disapprovingly: "You come and go in such a hurry, people found out, maybe there is nothing wrong with you, you can cause suspicion."

When Hui Niang heard this, she also felt that it was reasonable. "That's okay, then I'll stay here for a day? Tomorrow, when the rain stops, go back to the town to get money?"

"En!" Li Kongzhu had no choice but to nod his head, and when he led her home, he still comforted her, "Don't worry too much, take your time!"

"Yeah!" After hearing this, Hui Niang also felt that she had lost her composure.He hurriedly adjusted a few back and forth secretly, and after returning to normal, he started talking and laughing with her again.

Sure enough, what they said about buying the land was exactly what Li Kongzhu said.On the third day, while cooking, Mrs. Wang came over to speak to Li Kongzhu.

"After discussing it, we all know that the land is not worth much, and I don't want to cheat you. Just let you compare the price with the same price as the mountain land. And there, my old man and the land deed that everyone brought have the final say. There are nearly four Ten acres of land." At the end, she asked with some uncertainty, "But it will work? Is it too big?"

"It's not big, it can do it!" Li Kongzhu counted the money in the mountainous area, but it was only a little over one or two taels, and for forty mu, it was less than 80 taels of silver, which is still very affordable.

Seeing that she readily agreed, Mrs. Wang couldn't help asking again, "Are you really going to build a house?" Isn't it because of the peach branch?
You must know that in the past two days, many people went up the mountain to see the buds that followed.Although it looked wet and looked like it was going to live, it felt like there was no place to take root at all.But the tree root can grow up, and it is wrapped in such a small piece. If it is alive, where will the root grow?
Most people think it is useless, so this place can be sold so happily.

Li Kongzhu pursed his lips and smiled, he didn't intend to tell too much, but he couldn't not tell at all, he just said: "I want to keep it for building a house and sell it. We plan to build a peach blossom forest."

Mrs. Wang couldn't understand, the whole forest, build a house and sell it, who will sell it to?Who is rich these days, not building the house they like, and going to buy the house you built?
Not to mention expensive, it may not be what you want.

Seeing her like that, Li Kongzhu didn't intend to explain to her in detail, this is a very distant plan, she still has to come step by step.

Turning the subject around, he told Mrs. Wang the date of pick-up.Wang feels like looking at them.

Li Kongzhu just smiled, "Then let's make an appointment for tomorrow. Since we still have money, we can make an appointment early, so that both parties can feel at ease."

"Row!"

After setting the time, Li Kongzhu immediately went to the town to inform Hui Niang.Let Hui Niang come back by car the next day, so you don't have to rush to be with her, and let her take the shelf back.

Hui Niang naturally listened to her, and after the two arranged the time, they went to their respective homes without mentioning it.

On the second day, when the money was officially paid and the contract was handed over, Li Chong had already arranged the planting and returned to town.

When he came here at that time, Li Kongzhu asked him to follow him, and after he settled the money and goods with the land sellers of various families, he followed Chen Baisheng to the town to get all the land contracts into one.

After Li Chong came back and put the land deed back on the table, Hui Niang finally relaxed after several days of worrying, and said with a sigh: "It's finally settled. You don't know, this I haven't slept well for a few days."

Li Kongzhu laughed and scolded her for not being able to enjoy the blessings, she nodded again and again and said that she didn't have that fate, she was born to be a hard worker.

Seeing that the land is in place, Li Kongzhu talked about another idea of ​​his own, "Although everything is empty talk now, I want to make this peach forest look like a paradise. Sister Hui Niang, you can think about it." Want to have sex with me? You must know the way here, it cannot be accomplished in a day or two."

From the day when Hui Niang said that she was going to build a house, she had guessed that she might not only grow peaches, but now she heard her talk about the Peach Blossom Spring, and she was even more sure of her thoughts.

"Earlier, I wanted to use you as the boss, but you said that we will talk about the future, and you also promised to bring me with you. Now such a great opportunity is here? Why would I not want it? Lu, How can it be flat from the beginning? You have to walk more to get wider! You are not afraid, so what am I afraid of?"

Li Kongzhu nodded with a chuckle, "It's an honor to gain the trust of Niang Hui!"

"Pfft!" Hui Niang blamed her, "Stop teasing me."

"No, no! I say it with the utmost sincerity."

She had a serious look on her face, which made Hui Niang stomp her feet to make trouble with her.

After the two had a laughing and joking quarrel, Li Kongzhu thought of Mai Ya'er again.

Because of the rain and busy work these days, I realized that I haven't seen her for several days.

Now that I bought the land, since I have made a decision, I naturally want to let her buy a share.

While thinking about it, he told Hui Niang about it.

The two immediately made an appointment to go to Zhao Mengzi's house to inquire.

When Xiang took him to Zhao Mengzi's house, the door was opened by Mai Ya'er.

Seeing the two coming, for some reason, a trace of embarrassment flashed in her eyes.

He welcomed the two of them in, poured tea for them, and sat there twisting his clothes, not knowing what to say.

Li Kongzhu glanced at her and asked how she was.

She nodded repeatedly and said yes, she was no longer the cheerful and chattery person she used to be.

"Is it a big reaction! I look at you, why don't you look very good." Hui Niang asked as she put the tea bowl down, feeling that something was wrong with her.

Mai Ya'er shook her head again and again, "No, I'm just bored." He bit his lower lip and asked Li Kongzhu, "Sister-in-law, what can you do here?"

Li Kongzhu nodded after hearing this, and told her about picking up the peaches and buying land, and at the end, he asked her again: "But do you want a share? If you want, feel free to pay some money, then I will compare Is it possible to give you [-]%?"

Mai Ya'er's eyes turned red when she heard that, and then she shook her head with tears in her eyes, "I'm not successful."

"Oh, what's wrong with you?" Seeing her like this, Hui Niang hurriedly stepped forward and sat beside her, patting her and said, "But I asked you something, why are you still red-eyed?"

Li Kongzhu also squinted his eyes, thinking that she hadn't come to her place for several days, "Is it... What did Second Aunt say?" Ever since they repaired the house together, Lin Shi was not very happy.Because I make mixed noodles, steamed buns and meat almost all the time, and sometimes white noodles or something, this made Lin who was following the delivery say that he couldn't stand it.

Another thing is to fight, she followed Wang and persuaded herself.I didn't listen to it at the time, and I'm afraid that at that time, I had already accumulated some grievances in her heart, and I didn't want my son and daughter-in-law to continue to accompany her in doing things.

Sure enough, Mai Ya'er choked up and said: "She ran to my mother's house and told my mother, so she was afraid that I would follow the fight to take over this matter. I usually look aggressive, but my mother's family is poor, and If a brother is not married, Yao Zhi can’t afford it.” It’s not once or twice that she secretly took money back to her mother’s house, and her mother also felt that her mother-in-law was pretty good, since she didn’t agree to take that risk, she It should also be a little filial piety.

"Sister-in-law, I have always believed in you. But this matter..."

Seeing her hesitant to speak, Li Kongzhu understood, "It's okay, you and brother Mengzi can still come to work in the future, just afraid of the money..."

"I'm not going to be greedy anymore. If they want to stop them, let's stop them. I still hope that one day they will regret it with greedy eyes." Mai Ya'er snorted, thinking that this would be good, and then he would look at their faces. With a turtle-eating face, she can still vent her anger.To save these days, it seems to be holding her small debate, and keeps whispering in her ear.The same is true of my own man, at this moment he is also a little timid, after listening to her mother's words, he really pissed her off.

Li Kongzhu smiled and comforted her, "You are pregnant now, don't worry too much and get sullen, it's not good for your body."

"That's the reason."

Hui Niang also persuaded her a few more times.

After coming out of Mai Ya'er's house, Li Kongzhu felt a little uncomfortable.

Hui Niang at the side patted her, "It's the best of my kindness, don't pay too much attention to it."

"I know!"

She gave her a coquettish smile, and the two met again to go to the mountain to have a look...

Cui Jiu took the topographic map sent back by Jianying, looked at the detailed directions on it, and nodded in satisfaction.

"With this evidence, I think the third brother can't deny it even if he wants to."

"Master is wise!" Jian Ying knelt on one knee and sang with cupped hands.

Cui Jiu gave him another look, put down the parchment in his hand, and asked him, "How is he?"

"Calm and stable, and with a very delicate mind. When searching, due to exhaustion of energy and no medicine to suppress, the internal poison suddenly returned. In order to prevent exposure, it not only forcibly overdraws the internal force, but also excessively presses the internal channel. A lot of damage."

Cui Jiu paused when he heard this, and the next moment he half-closed his narrow eyes, "Where is the man now?"

"Because of the drug hegemony, there is no doctor to slow it down. The subordinates have brought it back and arranged it in the Dark Guard Mansion."

"Go find old man Hua!" Cui Jiu leaned on her chin and frowned and ordered.

After Jianying cupped his hands and said yes, he retreated.

Cui Jiu looked at the closed door, thought for a while, and called another person, "Come here, prepare the car!"

"Yes!"

When Cui Jiu came to the mansion dedicated to his own training of dark guards in a car, the guards in the mansion all wore black night clothes that were uniformly equipped with dark guards, and appeared from the darkness.

"The fourth prince is a thousand years old!"

Cui Jiu waved his hands to proclaim after enjoying the crowd's staring and holding the moon.

Then he called the leader to come closer and said, "Where is the person brought back by Jianying?"

"I'm cultivating in the dark pavilion, master, do you want to see me?" the visitor raised his eyes carefully and asked him.After seeing him nodding his head lightly, he hurriedly lowered his eyes and stood aside as a gesture of invitation.

Seeing this, Cui Jiu nodded and motioned to lead the way.

The leader was ordered to move forward quickly.He didn't dare to be too casual, just walked sideways, always paying attention to his own steps, and kept a certain distance from him.

When he came to the rockery in the garden of the mansion, he saw that the man's hand lightly pressed a certain concave place, and the rockery was dislodged from it.

Revealing the hidden scene inside, the leader once again arched his body and stood aside, making gestures and saying: "Master, please!"

Cui Jiusu nodded his face, and walked up the dark passage, walking towards the dark pavilion located in Jili.

At this time, Zhao Junyi was leaning on the bed with a pale face, closing his eyes and secretly breathing in to adjust the injury.The thin side of the face made the cheeks gradually sunken, while the edges and corners of the surrounding face became more and more bright.

Hearing the noise from outside, he slightly raised his eyelids and looked at the person who pushed the door.

The person who came raised his eyebrows lightly, looked at him and said, "Brother Jun, don't come here without any problems!"

"Fourth prince!" The man looked at him indifferently, "Jun is injured, so he can't get up to greet him."

"No problem!"

Waving his hand indifferently reassured him, Cui Jiu sat on the bedside and looked at him and said, "I haven't thanked you for your kindness, Brother Jun, here, Xiao Wang has thanked you politely!" After finishing speaking, he really got up I made a bow to him.

Zhao Junyi looked at him indifferently, and only said, "When the fourth prince keeps his promise, that is the greatest thank you to Jun."

"Naturally!" Cui Jiu grinned, "The map obtained by this king will definitely make Brother Sanhuang permanently lose power. At that time, this king can do his best to deal with Brother Jun."

"The internal struggle for imperial power has nothing to do with Jun. The fourth prince remembers that even if Jun waits a few more days, he will be defenseless!"

"No! I'm afraid we can't fight for the imperial power this time!"

Seeing that he was not interested in listening, Cui Jiu was not annoyed, "Based on what I know about my father, I am afraid that I will send someone to watch day and night, and I will not easily startle the snake. The third brother and the nine kings of Jingguo, If the two are really planning to usurp the throne together, and if it is revealed at this time, and it does not matter which party is trying to seize it, then the other party will definitely jump over the wall!"

"What does it have to do with changing the country?" Zhao Junyi looked at him with a half-smile.If you don't have the heart to annex, why should you be afraid of the nine kings jumping over the wall?
You must know that besides being cruel, the Nine Kings have much stronger brains than the fatuous king of Jingguo.

If it wasn't for the time yet, why would the Nine Kings collude with this arrangement?Or is it that the Nine Kings also want to take advantage of this opportunity to join forces and wait for work at leisure?
"Brother Jun knows what's going on, so why bother to say it?" Cui Jiu rested his jaw and looked at him with a smile. I will win the position first, and then go outside."

The winter spies came to report that when Yasukuni came to winter, there was very little snowfall, and in some areas, it was not even deep enough to the back of the feet. I am afraid that if it is a flood this year, it will be a drought.

In today's Yasukuni territory, many people have begun to worry.

Why wait so early to turn against something that can be used in a few months?

Thinking of this, he looked at Zhao Junyi again and said: "Although the antidote will be slower, Brother Jun's legs and face can be completely cured, but you want to take advantage of this time to solve it here?"

Zhao Junyi squinted his eyes when he heard this, but what he thought in his heart was that it had been more than half a month since he came out this time, if he didn't go back again.Will the little girl be disheartened?
Thinking of her whimpering from time to time to find someone else, or just eating and crying with candy.

As soon as he thought of her crying, the man's heart began to throb for no reason.

Just when he was about to say something, the sword shadow outside came to report that Mr. Hua had arrived.

Cui Jiugang was about to call for someone to pass on, but the door of the room was opened vigorously with a bang.

Cui Jiu's eyelids twitched when he saw it, he quickly sat up and jumped up, stepped forward two steps and shouted with a flattering smile: "Uncle!"

Uncle?

Zhao Junyi frowned for a moment.

But the person who came in was more than sixty years old, with white hair and white beard, thin and hale.

Looking at Cui Jiu who came forward to please him, he only snorted coldly, "Do you know that I am your uncle? If you don't make me around all day long, how will your heart be better?" go?"

"What the hell!" Cui Jiu walked forward with a smile, and stretched out his hand to touch the bed, "My friend hurts the internal veins, and he talks about practicing medicine. This changes the country. Who doesn't know the word Hua Lao? Are you uncle?"

"Hmph, brat!" Hua Lao snorted coldly, pinched his beard and approached the bed, raised a pair of sharp eyes to look up and down the person on the bed, then sat down, and asked the person to extend his hand.

Zhao Junyi stretched out his hand obediently.

Elder Hua only pointed at the three sticks and then let go of them for a moment, then turned to look at his nephew, "Last time you asked me to prepare the relieving medicine, but it was for him?"

"Exactly!" Cui Jiu said with a serious face, "Brother Jun is taking risks to investigate for this king this time, and he is also afraid that his traces will implicate this king, so that he will consume too much internal energy. Everything is because of this king! "As he said, he acted as if he couldn't bear the guilt, which made Jun Yizhi beside him speechless, and at the same time made Hua Lao gnash his teeth a little bit.

"If Ling'er hadn't asked me to keep you safe forever, do you think the old man would let you be sent like this?"

"Yes, yes, yes! Both my nephews and grandchildren know about it." He turned the words very quickly, as if he had been talking for decades, and he just opened his mouth. "After knowing that my uncle loves my mother, I also know what my uncle has done for my nephew and grandson over the years. In the future, when my nephew and grandson become famous, they will definitely be grateful to my uncle."

Hua Lao snorted coldly, "Don't talk too much, the old man doesn't want to be so hypocritical. I just hope that I can still have a safe place in my lifetime."

"There must be."

Regarding his assurance, Mr. Hua didn't say anything more.He only pondered for a moment and checked Zhao Junyi's pulse again, then asked someone to write a prescription and ordered him to dispense the medicine.

"If you want to eradicate it, you must use Yasukuni cold medicine!"

"Someone is already doing it!" Cui Jiu ordered people to go to dispense the medicine, and then said: "He still has a leg injury, please ask uncle..."

The old man glanced at him, then stepped forward and rudely lifted Zhao Junyi's quilt.

A cold light flashed in Zhao Junyi's eyes. Seeing him touch his legs lightly, he pursed his thin lips lightly with a sullen face, and said, "Thank you!"

After touching his leg, Mr. Hua said, "Did you take it?"

"I only clamped it with a barefoot medical board." When the old man Zhao picked him up back then, he didn't have much money to treat him. Seeing that the barefoot doctor who passed by asked for a cheap price, he tied him hastily thing.

"En!" Hua Lao nodded, "It's not difficult to reconnect. Although your leg has been pinched, it hasn't been bone-set. I'm afraid you have to knock it hard again! However, the process may be worse than the one you experienced when you fell. It’s going to be painful, but can you bear it?”

"No defense!" He has endured any pain, let alone this little pain?

"Since that's the case, let's straighten your bones after you've adjusted your body!"

Cui Jiu saw that he was going to leave with his suitcase, so he asked in puzzlement, "Can't we knock now?"

Hua Lao turned his head and looked at him sideways, "Now he is weak, you knocked his bones, his body hurts, it will cause him to lose more energy, do you want to make his life dangerous?"

Cui Jiu shrank his neck, when had he thought about it like this?Just wishing him a good morning.

"No defense! Hit it now!"

"?"

Hua Lao turned his head and stared at him, but he heard him say again: "Please ask Hua Lao to heal Jun's leg right now!"

"Do you know the consequences of forced treatment in your current situation?"

"Of course I know!"

The man turned back with a cold face, he didn't have much time now, if he didn't take advantage of this illness to heal his leg, and wait for the injury to recover, he might be delayed for a long time on the return journey.

He is not afraid of anything else, but he is afraid of her tears, and he is afraid that he will live up to his expectations.

"Also please feel free to treat Mr. Hua, Jun will definitely be able to bear it!"

Hua Lao turned his head and stared at Cui Jiu, but Cui Jiu muttered unexpectedly, "I didn't force it, it was his voluntary!"

……

Entering mid-March, the weather is getting brighter and brighter.

In the fields, there are tall grasses and wild flowers of various colors fluttering everywhere.

Now if you look at it casually, the mountains are so beautiful, and the green wheat seedlings, as if they were enchanted, began to grow crazily. Those who fertilized the fields well have already begun to grow in the fields. Picking ears.

Now is the busy season. Even if we don't harvest grain, we still have paddy fields to plow and rice seedlings to grow.

Li Kongzhu's house is almost going to be roofed soon.Seeing the day when the beam was getting closer and closer, Li Kongzhu would look at the head of the village every day, hoping that the man who said he would only leave for a few days would come back soon.

Not wanting him, but wanting to beat him!
Li Diaozhu, who was returning to the village with wild vegetable baskets on his shoulders, was thinking about wrapping wild vegetables for Jing Zhe to eat vigorously at night, and at the same time, he was gnashing his teeth thinking about the appropriate way to beat him up when the man came back.

I was heading home, but unexpectedly found that Mrs. Wang was standing at the door of his house and kept spinning.

Seeing this, Li Kongzhu hurried forward and called out, "Auntie! Who are you?"

Wang turned around, smiled awkwardly and said, "That what! That..."

She was thinking about how to speak, but Li Kongzhu was about to open the door and let her in.

Seeing this, Mrs. Wang shook her head, pulled her closer, opened her mouth, and said with some embarrassment: "Back then, the land sellers were making trouble in front of our house, and your uncle was calm, thinking of asking you to go over and ask. clear."

Now the peach branches connected by Nanshan have already grown up, and some people seem to have survived, so how can there be any reason to do it again?All the vicious people said that Chen Baisheng deliberately deceived everyone, took advantage of it, and tricked them into selling the land.

After hearing this, Li Kongzhu could only shake his head with a smile, and said without refusing: "Then, wait for me, I will put down the basket and follow you!"

Seeing this, Mrs. Wang quickly nodded, "Hurry up! Your uncle may not be able to hold on any longer."

"Ok!"

Li Kongzhu replied, and quickly entered the courtyard, after carrying Lanzi into the kitchen, he went to the main house again.

When he came out again, he greeted Mrs. Wang with a smile, "Let's go, auntie!"
