Chapter 121 The more chaos adds to the chaos

After spending the Dragon Boat Festival peacefully like this, the wife sent by the county finally arrived belatedly.

He is a scholar from Linjiang Town, his name is Xin Wei. In addition to his wife and children, he also has two younger brothers who come with him. They all have to go to school.

The master's family is taken care of. In fact, the family does not need to hand over relatives to study.

As the master and manager of the school, Zhou Fei not only had to provide accommodation for the master, but also set up a table to welcome the master. Both Li Hui and Mr. Liu were present, and the meal did not end until midnight.

I had talked a lot with Mrs. Liu just now. Li Hui was in a good mood at the moment, humming a little tune and walking towards home with square steps.

When he noticed someone was following him, he deliberately acted drunkenly, hiccupping and retching. He used all his experience in watching TV series at this moment.

Finally, feeling a gust of wind behind him, he turned around quickly like a leopard, and then punched the man who had sneaked up on him directly on the nose.

"Well——"

When the man was about to leave, Li Hui kicked him hard from behind, then grabbed his hair and turned his face forcefully——

"Ha--I knew it would be you! Next time, don't blame me for being rude to you."

After Li Hui finished speaking, he shook it hard, got up and left.

The man on the ground lay there for a long time before slowly moving.

The soreness in his nose made him frown, looked in the direction of Li Hui's house, spit out blood on the ground, and walked home slowly.

It happened that Guo Dake came out to pour water——

"Hey, Nianzi is back. Is your wife feeling well?"

Li Qingnian turned his head, said "hmm", and left directly.

Such an episode did not make Li Hui take it to heart, but it was a heavy blow to Li Qingnian.

You must know that he was the one who rode on Li Hui and tortured him before, and today he was beaten like a bear... What went wrong?

"I'm back. I haven't eaten meat at home for several days. Shanzi is yelling about eating meat."

"Bite your cheeks and it's all meat." After Li Qingnian yelled, he took a breath.

His nose really hurt. Fortunately, he leaned back a little at that time, otherwise the bridge of his nose would have been broken.

Mrs. Qin rolled her eyes when she heard this and went directly to the west room to sleep with her son.

Ever since Li Fang passed away and the bad debts in the clan school came out, she has been like a mouse crossing the street, never daring to leave the house. She even dared not go back to her natal family, which was so close.

She was really fed up with living like this, especially since she was sick a while ago. If she hadn't been in good health, she would have dealt with it. When she heard the man coming, Mrs. Qin closed her eyes and pretended to sleep with her arms around Li Wanshan.

Li Qingnian stood by the bed and looked at it for a moment, sighed and went out...

…

A few days later, Cheng Xue accompanied Li Yue to Deji Hall to deliver medicine.

When I checked out, I found that the price of the medicine had increased a lot. At first I thought the medicine boy had made a mistake, but after checking, I found out that the price of the medicine had gone up. I asked them to give away as much as they had, and the sooner the better.

Li Yue was filled with joy, while Cheng Xue looked solemn.

When something goes wrong, there must be a monster.

I'm just afraid something bad will happen.

After leaving Deji Hall, Cheng Xue was not in a hurry to go home. She took Li Yue and walked around the town. She asked about the prices at grocery stores and stalls.

There was no problem, just like usual. Could it be that she was overthinking it? Even so, she still bought more salt. This stuff wouldn't go bad if it was left there, so it would be helpful to prepare some.

"sister in law?"

Cheng Xue turned around when she heard the sound, saw it was Xiao Qinglin, and smiled.

"From where?"

"I just came back from the county. My brother asked me to sell the shop and get everything done." Xiao Qinglin seemed to want to take credit.

Seeing this, Cheng Xue bought pork belly and big bones from a nearby meat stall, put them into a basket and said:

"I'll come home for dinner tonight and treat you well."

"You still want to eat the fried liver noodles made by my sister-in-law, can you arrange a side?"

"No problem." Cheng Xue bought another pair of pork livers.

After buying the goods and getting into the car, Bai Rui raised his whip and whipped his horse. After leaving the city, he whispered:

"Sister-in-law, does your family have a lot of food?"

"Save it, it'll be enough for two years." Cheng Xue didn't hide anything, "What's wrong? Do you need it? If you need it, come and get it from home. It seems that the weather will be good this year, and there will be enough food."

Xiao Qinglin waved his hands hurriedly and said:

"No, my family is not short of food. Since your family has enough food, be careful. Food prices will skyrocket in a few days. There is another war in southern Xinjiang."

"What? Didn't we say we won last time? Why fight again?"

"It has always been uneasy. But this time it seems to be quite serious. The imperial court has sent people to support southern Xinjiang again. My sister-in-law and my brother have been more alert at night these days. Something has been lost in the county again."

Yes, the more chaos there is, the more chaos there will be.

Li Yue, who originally thought about going back to the mountains to collect herbs, now dared not even think about it.

After returning to the village, Cheng Xue went to the west of the village first. It was a bit out of the way, and there was only Guo Sanyu's house recently, so I still have to remind you.

Sanyu's wife was grateful after hearing this and sent her out gratefully, saying:

"Don't worry, Tiedan, we will secure the door. Now that the spring plowing is over, can we still patrol?"

"I don't know, but I guess not, unless one of our villages here is robbed."

After Cheng Xue said that, she walked to Yu Zhao's new house. They were about to move in. They burned the house twice a day these days because they were afraid of the tide.

The house is fully equipped with everything, and all the odds and ends they had in Yujiatun have also been moved here.

There are five rooms, one of which is reserved for the bathroom, and there are warehouses on the east and west sides. The layout is similar to his house, but not as big as his house. But it is definitely enough for a home, and a large vegetable garden is specially left behind.

Beans, eggplants, lettuce, etc. are all planted, so you can have vegetables when you move here.

"Ah, sister-in-law Li Hui is here."

Cheng Xue turned around when she heard the sound, and saw Guo Sizhu's wife standing behind her with her belly puffed out, and asked in confusion:

"Why are you running here? You're about to give birth. Don't go alone."

"It was because I was about to give birth that I came out for a walk." Guo Sizhu's wife responded with a smile, "When I saw the smoke coming from the chimney, I knew there was someone in the house, so I came over to take a look. Does my sister-in-law want to move here?"

"No, Yu Zhao and his family are here. What about you? Are you coming back after confinement or staying with Brother Dake?"

"Of course I'm coming back. I was too ignorant before and hurt my eldest brother and sister-in-law. They don't care about past grudges, so I can't stay here shamelessly."

Like Guo Sanyu's wife, she has changed a lot.

After lighting the fire, Cheng Xue stood up, took her arm and went out, locking the courtyard door.

"Go back and tell sister-in-law Dake that something has been lost again in the county. You must secure your door at night and don't be careless."

Guo Sizhu's wife just wanted to go out for a walk to facilitate the birth, but she didn't expect to hear such news.

"Things were lost in the county...it would be better if some of the nearby villages were robbed."

This was a bit harsh to say, but Cheng Xue understood what she meant.

The last patrol that was planned for a rainy day ended up being called off due to the displeasure of the villagers. Now, thinking about organizing a patrol is simply a fantasy. But no matter how you say it, you can't hide this matter from Li Zheng, you have to tell it as soon as possible...

I'll take a day off tomorrow. I'll finish the first three chapters soon. No scalpers.
Chapter completed!
