Chapter 295 Unrestrained Xingke has nothing to do with him
At dusk, the sun has set. The last ray of sunlight shines on the window sill. Li Guolou sits motionless in front of the dressing table. Behind him, Wu Peipei is combing his hair. Xie Liya also got up from the bed and sat on the edge of the bed to get dressed. .The three of them were going to have dinner.
Looking at the two lovers in the mirror, Li Guolou showed a satisfied smile and said: "We will eat later. Be serious. We must keep the country people simple."
Wu Peipei grabbed Li Guolou's braid and pulled it gently. She scolded: "I know. Keep your image as a lord. We won't embarrass you."
Li Guolou smiled awkwardly and defended: "This is also for your own good. Our family will come here to play in the future. The villagers will not gossip."
"Hmph." Shelia said softly: "Mike, who dares to gossip about you? You know how to shoot prisoners."
"Shhhhhhhh." Li Guolou frowned and sighed: "Donkey Ball, I am taking the blame for Mr. Bao. No matter how despicable and despicable I am, I will not kill prisoners. This killing of prisoners will be nailed in the history books. I have been scolded for thousands of years. I am more unjust than Dou E."
Xie Liya nodded with satisfaction and said: "Yes. Superior people will not kill prisoners of war. The most they will do is hard labor."
While speaking, Wu Peipei pulled Li Guolou's braid hard and yelled angrily: "Xiaolou, try saying dirty words again."
"Ah yo." Li Guolou screamed strangely: "Sister Peipei, I will never curse anyone again. I promise you." He was secretly worried: I learned it from those country bumpkins. If I stay here any longer, I won't be able to speak human language. .
"Hmm. That's ridiculous. How much money do you want sister to invest here?" Wu Peipei was satisfied both physically and mentally. She was ready to make Li Guolou's face. She quickly tied a braid and caressed Li Guolou's head.
Li Guolou twisted his waist and held Wu Peipei's waist. He smiled and said: "Sister Peipei, I am Han Xin. The more soldiers the better. The investment in Balizhuang is a little slow to recover. But the scenery here is beautiful. We will come here often in the future. Wouldn't it be nice to come and stay for a few days?"
"Hey, Xiaolou, you can do whatever you want. I don't think you can get back your investment. Even if you win people's hearts, do one more good deed." Wu Peipei was generous and did not care about Li Guolou's calculation of her money.
Li Guolou held Wu Peipei's hand and said affectionately: "Sister Peipei, it's great to meet you. You help me so much, which makes me cherish you even more."
While talking, Wu Peipei took out a few banknotes from the pockets under her armpits and handed them to Li Guolou without hesitation. The family members all supported Li Guolou selflessly and hoped that he would become famous soon.
"Mike, I will make a lot of money for you in the future." Xie Liya came over and said nice words. She is British. She has inherent advantages and strong stamina. She will bring huge wealth to Li Guolou.
Li Guolou first counted the amount of the banknote. He was secretly happy. It was more than 20,000 silver taels. Wu Peipei was really willing to pay for him. She was not lying. She nodded and said: "Yes. Serving sincerely will bring about a better future. I believe it." Through our efforts, we can change the situation where the Qing Empire was completely impoverished."
Xie Liya and Wu Peipei nodded frequently and said: "Well, Mike, only you can do it. We believe in you. You are strong enough."
Li Guolou gained confidence from Xie Liya and Wu Peipei. He glowed with fiery youth. He applied what he learned to the country and the people. He worked hard on the farm. He raised his head proudly and said with a smile: "Are your two beloved concubines dressed up? Let’s go down.”
"Yes." Xie Liya and Wu Peipei took small steps and followed Li Guolou step by step. This family needs many people to care for it. Only when everyone reaches a consensus can greater achievements be achieved.
Li Guolou walked in the front with his chest raised and his belly raised. Family harmony is his greatest achievement. Only when the family is united can the world be peaceful. He has achieved this. Next, he needs a bigger stage. I hope Prince Gong can give him a chance. I look forward to meeting Prince Gong Yixin, the "Thousand-year-old Master" of the Qing Empire as soon as possible.
Tonight, I will take over for Na Ba Zi and give him enough face. Li Guolou invites Na Ba Zi to take a seat. The new team of Balizhuang gathers together. Everyone greets and proposes a toast in a personable manner.
The man raised his wine glass proudly, stood up and said: "Dear new friends in the village, since Captain Li thinks highly of me, let me shoulder the burden of developing Yunmeng Mountain. I will do my part. A beautiful life is at our feet. Happy. Tomorrow depends on our joint efforts. Balizhuang is my second hometown in life. For this fertile soil, I will take root here and build Balizhuang into a prosperous and civilized new countryside. Now I declare the "Yunmengshan Development Committee" to be official It has been established. Please give me your warmest applause. Captain Li, please say a few words."
The warm applause stopped. Li Guolou smiled and greeted the people around him. He said with a smile: "Good evening, fellow citizens. Like that brother, I regard Balizhuang as my second hometown. Of course, it is a place where I have fought. Folks We will always remember it."
Li Guolou felt awkward, so he personally shot fifteen of Zhou Bapi's servants and servants outside. He had a bad reputation here. Bao Tongyi had a shrine, and his hands were stained with the blood of Balizhuang villagers. He was the murderous devil. When the villagers pay homage to their fellow villagers, they will definitely curse him to be sent to the eighteenth level of hell.
People in the flower hall. "Captain Li is really good at joking. It's not too late for us to thank you."
"Chief Li is the reincarnated royal cat Zhan Zhao. A god next to Bao Qingtian." Zheng Hengdan, the secretary, was in good health and did not forget to shout loudly.
The people in the flower hall laughed so much that they almost lost their temper. How could they be at odds with Li Guolou? They were just at odds with themselves. The memories of Balizhuang are painful. The village annals will record the presence of the outsider Hokage and other rebels. To commit this crime, the villagers of Balizhuang fought bravely against the White Lotus cultists and won a tragic victory with the help of officers and soldiers.
Li Guolou nodded approvingly to Zheng Hengdan. Children can be taught, and can be cultivated into confidants in the future. He said gratefully: "Long live my understanding. Thank you for your understanding, fellow villagers. For the future of Balizhuang, I can shed blood on the battlefield, or I can jump in." You can dig mud in the smelly ditch and spend your life savings. Now the funds for the reconstruction plan of Balizhuang have been put in place. A total of 35,645 taels of charity have been raised. I hope you will use this money well to help your hometown. The construction is beautiful. I will come again when the autumn leaves turn red. I hope that Balizhuang will be transformed by then and regain the glory of our ancestors. Let the world see the straight backbone of Balizhuang people."
Everyone was shocked. Li Guolou actually left more than 35,000 taels of silver to Balizhuang. He kept his word and did not play tricks. He just got the benefit and walked away. Muramasa Kei Gertai turned out to have a left foot. He was a little lame. Dragging his disabled left leg, he limped up and stood up first. He gave Li Guolou a big hug and gave Li Guolou a kiss with his big beard.
"Captain Li, thank you for your full support of my work. Now I have endless motivation and endless creativity. The blueprints I drew are more beautiful than your paintings." Qing Geertai said boldly. Anyway, it is easier to do things if you have money.
With tears in her eyes, Dongqing shouted: "Captain Li, you must come." Deep in her heart, she was thinking that the reconstruction of Balizhuang would just start from his family's house, and build Balizhuang into an indestructible group of watchtowers. What's next? Even heroes don't dare to take Balizhuang's idea.
The most shocked person among them is Ai Hai. He knows best how much money there is in Balizhuang's books. Li Guolou's lover "Sister Wu" brought more than 20,000 taels of silver. What is the origin of this big woman? With her world connection. It will definitely be able to detect and find out.
Ai Haifu said: "Xiaoxue, did you hear that? The fake foreign devil is bleeding profusely. Why are you hesitating? Our wealth is tied to the fake foreign devil. We live in courtyards in the capital. Wouldn't it be better to live in a watchtower here and become a landlord?"
"Hey, it's not that I don't like it here. Ai Lang, I can't do all the work on my own. Then you can raise a little one here. Didn't I give her a wedding dress?" Lin Xue fell in love with it when she came here. There are mountains and rivers. A beautiful place with beautiful mountains and rivers. The family life in the dream is here. But there are endless troubles. Her husband is a policeman. She can't even see the shadow of Ai Hai.
Ai Hai whispered: "Hong Gu, I will not change my promise to you. Don't worry, as long as you can still have children, I will not marry a younger wife for ten years."
Lin Xue's heart dropped. She nodded and looked at Li Guo Tower with a smile. The benefits of going to Li Guo Tower are getting higher and higher. She smiled brightly and said: "Don't worry, Ai Lang. Zhang Shengshou said that I can still have children. I am taking Chinese medicine to take care of my body." It will bear fruit soon.”
"Yeah. Let's continue working hard tonight." Ai Hai smiled. He understood that his wife Lin Xue would take out some private money. His eyes turned kind when he looked at his stepson Ai Lianying sitting next to him, wriggling his buttocks. The child was uncertain. Not running around is already pretty good.
People in the flower hall high-fived each other. There is a lot of potential for the future. Balizhuang can be turned into a beautiful village. The banquet was not formal at the beginning. It was not something that Li Guolou could control. He originally thought well. The reception banquet lasted for more than an hour. It ended successfully, and then there was another meeting. But Na Bazi asked four servants to move in two jars of Xinghua Village rice wine. It was a good wine with a different taste than the jar wine mixed with water in the countryside. People at the ten tables, both men and women, drank from large bowls. Even he himself couldn't resist the temptation.
Since the banquet has begun, the dishes can be wasted. The wine jar has no bottom. How can it be a waste of wine? The climax comes one after another. Drinking and drinking. After a few rounds of drinking and talking. Needless to say, sit at separate tables according to the size of the drink. Li Guolou Just taste it and stop it. Drinking and sex have no relationship with him anymore. He has no part in being dissolute in public.
I have long been accustomed to seeing the various behaviors of drunkards at banquets. I asked Li Guolou to always maintain restraint and raise a glass to celebrate in a graceful manner. Unknowingly, the people at the table next to Li Guolou were all women. It was a blessing in misfortune. The guardians are his two lovers Wu Peipei and Xie Liya.
Li Guolou warned: "You two should drink less. The countryside is not like home. If you get up late in the morning, you will be looked down upon."
Wu Peipei picked up the small wine cup and took a sip in a graceful manner. She glanced at her and said: "Xiaolou, when have I ever gotten up late? In the past, I was the eldest lady and the head of the family. The children would come to my living room early in the morning. Come and say hello to me. When I’m in a good mood, I’ll give you a reward...”
Li Guolou was furious. Wu Peipei had drunk too much and started talking nonsense. The wives of several subordinates nearby were listening attentively.
Li Guolou hurriedly pulled Wu Peipei's sleeves and whispered: "Sister Wu, you drank too much. There are so many people listening. Give me some face."
Wu Peipei was excited. She felt a little more awake. She glanced at Li Guolou, who was speaking urgently, and said softly: "Xiaolou, I'm just joking. Drink and drink. Don't look at me. Come, let's celebrate the New Year." See you again. Let’s have a drink.”
Newly acquainted women and women who had just met were toasting in celebration. They suddenly heard a secret. They narrowed their eyes deeply and showed an expression that was just as expected.
Xie Liya couldn't sit still anymore. She gently stroked Li Guolou's thigh and said softly: "Mike, stop drinking. You are here and your subordinates can't let go. It's better to go back and rest early."
In the flower hall, drinks were exchanged. The drinkers were still restrained. The noisy shouting had not started. The banquet had not yet reached its climax. Li Guolou was born in a family of officials and had an inherent gap with the common people. He was very comfortable with polite and false Mandarin. But in It's too difficult to integrate into the big environment. Playing the game of guessing, shouting, hugging each other, pretending to be crazy. Li Guolou has nothing to do with it. His subordinates are a bit afraid of his official authority. Hey, it's time to leave. Only when there is melancholy of parting can there be joy when we get together.
Li Guolou stood up, raised his glass to thank the guests, and sang, "I'm exhausted. Please feel free to do whatever you want." He turned around and pulled Wu Peipei out of the flower hall. "Fourth" Xie Liya came up to help, and together they dragged "Laoba" "Wu Peipei. Walking towards the watchtower.
The two of them softly comforted Wu Peipei to walk. Only then did the three of them step out of the flower hall. An astonishing noise broke out from behind. The climax of the banquet was about to come.
