[Volume Two] Chapter Forty

【Volume 2】Chapter 40 Bah

"you--"

The girl hesitated, and was very angry with Li Quancheng, but the young man's eyes were bright and shining, and he said repeatedly: "Go, I will definitely go for two thousand taels!"

"Don't go!"

The girl put her hands on her hips and growled at the young man. She looked very tough. Li Quancheng secretly sighed in his heart, all the women in the Song Dynasty were so different from what they looked like...

Li Quancheng is deeply touched by this. First there is Yan Shengnan, then Qiulan, then Yun Ruoruo and Miao Yan. None of them are the kind of people who are "as they appear"... They are all hidden deep inside.

No leaks!

"Sister... I have already promised this guest. Haven't you always taught me to keep my word? This guest has come here in town. If I break my promise to him, wouldn't it be a violation of my father's legacy?

Yet?"

"you--"

The girl hesitated and glared at the young man fiercely, warning him not to speak. Li Quancheng suddenly clapped his hands and laughed, exclaiming: "A promise of a thousand gold is indeed the legacy of the sages. Little brother, I have a hundred gold leaves here, so

I’ve bought this promise from you!”

Although Li Quancheng's father is rich, it does not mean that Li Quancheng is rich. The reason why he shamelessly slaps his father is to make some money. After all, the commission is quite considerable. It is a pity that he is so pitiful.

His salary had already been deducted and repaid by his father, so Li Quancheng rarely - no - probably never had the opportunity to spend huge sums of money.

It’s hard to make money until you start a business. Li Quancheng is afraid of poverty. Have you ever tried to hibernate to resist hunger? Have you ever tried to pick out a slightly longer cigarette butt from the ashtray and continue to smoke? Have you tried?

Have you ever had a time when you soaked a bucket of instant noodles for an hour and then turned it into a big bowl before you were willing to eat it?

So when Dou Wen and Long Wenhu were dying of hunger, only Li Quancheng could do such a disgusting thing as giving only five taels of silver, and this time Li Quancheng was so generous, saying that a thousand gold buys a promise, bullshit -

-Only noble people can afford such noble things.

He thought that although he was kind, he had not yet reached a noble state, so it was naturally not his fault to promise a thousand gold. The reason why he used all the gold leaves on his body to buy the young man's promise was purely to return to his hometown as soon as possible.

It's just like Xiangyang, just like that time when I gave all my money to scalpers in order to go home smoothly for the New Year. Although I have the heroic spirit of spending a lot of money, it still feels a little painful.

"you--"

When the girl saw Li Quancheng stuffing the gold leaf into the boy's hand, and the boy's eyes shone brightly, and he put the gold leaf into his arms without hesitation, she knew that there was no room for redemption in this matter, and she couldn't help but look angry.

Turning red, he glared at Li Quancheng and gritted his teeth.

Not to mention, when this little girl is angry, she is actually much prettier than usual. That piercing glare in her eyes was like two small flying knives condensed with ice, which cut Li Quancheng's chrysanthemums to the point of withering.

With a slight snort, the girl turned around and walked away, never talking to the two of them again.

"I haven't asked this little brother his name yet!"

Now that girl definitely hates him, and Li Quancheng can also see that the girl among them is the one who makes the decision. In desperation, Li Quancheng has no choice but to save the country. Just like what was shown on TV, if he wants to conquer his sister, he must

Starting from the brother-in-law, it was obvious that the boy in front of him was much easier to deal with than the girl.

"My name is Zhao Zhifeng, and that is my sister, her name is Zhao Zhiyun!"

The young man covered the gold leaves hidden in his arms with one hand, touched his head with the other, smiled shyly, and said, "What's your name, brother?"

"My name is Li Quan. I am from Xiangyang. I am eager to return home. The official route is too slow, so I want to rent a boat to go home."…

"The Mongolians are checking very hard these days. We can only wait until midnight to go. I hope Brother Li won't be anxious and wait until night before setting off!"

"It doesn't matter, I'm not in a hurry!"

Li Quancheng said he was not in a hurry, but his face had already darkened. He didn't know how many days he had been buried, let alone whether Ruoruo and the others had returned to Xiangyang City, but the Mongols' movement made him greatly frightened.

He was confused. Judging from what he knew, the Mongols' blockade of the South Water Line obviously only started in the past few days, but why?

If it was Miao Yan who was trying to prevent herself - this was impossible, she had already been buried by that girl, how could she be so defensive?

Li Quancheng couldn't figure out what kind of medicine the Mongolians took wrongly, so he didn't bother to think about it anymore. This guy knows the most about "man's plan and God's plan", so he might as well take it one step at a time and see the truth.

He has a habit of presenting the worst consequences of things, and if he can accept it, he will do it, and if he cannot accept it, he will not do it. Most of the time, Li Quancheng found that the consequences did not seem to be so heavy that he could not accept it.

, it was the same when he came to the Song Dynasty. The worst outcome was death. He often thought ruthlessly that he would be single and die in the worst case, and that would not matter!

Thinking of this, Li Quancheng's heart gradually calmed down. When it was time to have dinner, Zhao Zhiyun didn't call him. Of course, Zhao Zhifeng called him with his eyes but dared to say it out and thought with his toes.

You can imagine what happened.

If it were someone else, he might be embarrassed to serve, but Li Quancheng has no such considerations at all. There seems to be no word "sorry" in his dictionary. This shows that Zhao Qian said, "Shameless people will not die easily."

"It still makes sense. At least he won't starve to death, so while Zhao Zhiyun was still cooking, Li Quancheng had already sat down at the table.

Zhao Zhiyun was so angry that he almost dropped the spatula. Even Zhao Zhifeng, who was so proud of the hundred gold leaves, couldn't help but roll his eyes, secretly thinking that Brother Li was more shameless than ten gold leaves.

The leaves are thick when stacked...but why are these golden leaves so thin?

The dinner was quite sumptuous, with fish, meat, and some seasonal vegetables. It could be seen that Zhao Zhiyun had prepared Li Quancheng's meal, but the portion was slightly smaller. So Li Quancheng ate with more peace of mind, and put the last half of the rice pot into the pot.

After putting the rice into a bowl, he poured the last few spoonfuls of fish soup into the rice. Seeing Zhao Zhiyun and his brother looking dumbfounded, Li Quancheng said in surprise: "Are you full? Eat some more - uh - cough

cough--"

Remembering that the last half bowl of crispy rice had already gone into his own bowl, it seemed that there was no need to continue saying this, so Li Quancheng cleared away all the vegetable bowls on the table, not even leaving any vegetable soup.

Next, Zhao Zhiyun, with eyes full of anger, started working hard.

After finishing the last bowl of bibimbap in several mouthfuls and putting down the bowl and chopsticks, Li Quancheng realized that something seemed wrong. Zhao Zhiyun's eyes were still angry, while Zhao Zhifeng's eyes turned to dementia... and the one he had hit.

Big yellow dog... But why is this guy's eyes so full of resentment?

Li Quancheng coughed a few times and said with a dry smile: "Who knew that every single piece of food on the plate is hard work, don't waste it... I have always been nicknamed the "Plate Sweeper"..."

"Brother Li..."

Finally, Zhao Zhifeng broke the embarrassment of Li Quancheng talking to himself. Li Quancheng felt relieved. This brother-in-law - bah - this young man is indeed a kind-hearted person. When he arrives in Xiangyang, he should give him a few more taels of silver tips.

!

"What does Brother Zhifeng want to say?"

Li Quancheng smiled kindly and encouraged Zhao Zhifeng to bravely speak his true thoughts.

Zhao Zhifeng said quietly: "Actually, the half bowl of rice in the pot is reserved for Rhubarb... This is his ration for the whole night..."...

"Gah——"

Li Quancheng's face stiffened suddenly, and the steel skin on his face fell straight down. This guy finally blushed and wanted to run back into the forest and crash to death in his own grave... Damn... I

Why is that guy looking so resentful? It turns out that I stole his job and ate his dog food!

After enduring hundreds of looks from Zhao Zhiyun, the time finally came. Li Quancheng couldn't wait any longer and said, "Brother Zhifeng, can we set off?"

"Okay! The boat is ready and ready to go!"

"You're not allowed to go!"

Zhao Zhiyun said coldly.

"Sister, I have already promised Brother Li, but if you don't let me go now, this is not..."

"I go!"

"What?"

Zhao Zhifeng was shocked and said: "How can this be done? I am the only man in the family. How can I let you, a girl, take risks?"

"Little brat! Do you know it's a risk?"

Zhao Zhifeng rolled his eyes at Zhao Zhiyun angrily, and said faintly: "Our old Zhao family has passed down the inheritance for hundreds of years, and in our generation you will be the only one left. How can I let you take risks?"

Li Quancheng's heart moved. If he wanted to say what word he was most sensitive to now, it would be the word "inheritance." The things represented by the word inheritance are often very valuable things, and everything Li Quancheng is doing now is nothing more than

Just "collecting" various inheritances!

The inheritance of gunpowder, the inheritance of organs, and the inheritance of culture. In other words, these inheritances are the most cutting-edge and authoritative existences in various fields. Li Quancheng's occupational disease occurred again, but the conversation between the siblings was too fast, making it difficult for him to interrupt.

"Sister-"

"Shut up!"

"Can you please stop treating me like a child like this?"

"Shut up!"

"I'm thirteen years old!"

"Shut up!"

Zhao Zhiyun shouted loudly, and Zhao Zhifeng finally shut up. He looked at Li Quancheng resentfully, hoping that he would say a word. Although this man had a very bad impression in his sister's mind, if he could share some of her sister's anger,

That is also playing a role that he can play, isn't it?

"Ahem. Miss Zhiyun, little brother Zhifeng, would you please listen to me?"

Li Quancheng was quite a gentleman, but unfortunately Zhao Zhiyun didn't see it that way and said directly: "Not good!"

But Zhao Zhifeng said repeatedly: "Okay, okay, Brother Li, please tell me!"

Li Quancheng directly ignored Zhao Zhiyun's words and said calmly: "Now the north of Tangzhou, Caizhou, and Yingzhou are all Mongolian territories. Although Cixiao Town is remote, the Mongolian hands have already reached here. How about you?"

Come with me to Xiangyang, and I can still speak a few words in Xiangfan and other places."

Zhao Zhiyun rolled his eyes and dismissed Li Quancheng's statement: "Humph! Don't think that we don't understand anything. Do you think that Xiangfan was taken back by the imperial court and how long it can be kept? Sooner or later it will be the chopping block of the Mongols.

Meat on the table? We went to Xiangyang, I’m afraid it was the beginning of a homeless life!”

"The meaning of life lies in challenges, in sports, in never-ending progress... Then just go out and travel!"

Li Quancheng began to explain the true meaning of life and philosophy of life again. Unfortunately, before these profound philosophies could shine, they turned into two words that burst out from the middle of the thick lips of the fisherman girl - "Ah!"
