The next day before dawn, Li Yanqing ran back steaming, he left the official road, ran into Li Wen Village, Li Wen Village has already been lit up, but it seems sparse, far from being compared with before, from this point it can also be seen that Bao Yan Zhai has a huge impact on Li Wen Village, almost all young people have gone to the capital, and more than a dozen families have moved south.

For example, the neighbor Aunt Gu's house, several children have entered Baoyanzhai to do things, and their husband and wife also went to Ezhou to plant flowers in Baoyanzhai's Baihua Manor, it is said that Aunt Gu is ready to sell the house and land, and completely move to the south.

A few years ago, Li Yanqing persuaded Aunt Gu to go to the south, but she refused, but now, everything has changed, the environment has changed, and people's hearts have changed.

What makes Li Yanqing sad is Da Hei, who also died of old age this spring, buried under the jujube tree in the backyard, in just two years, Li Wencun has a bit of a sense of being a person.

Running across the path, Li Yanqing pushed the door directly and went home, and as soon as he walked into the yard, he smelled the tempting fragrance, which came from the kitchen, which was very familiar, and it seemed to be his favorite big bun with fine stuffing of mutton.

"Uncle Zhong, are you steaming steamed buns?"

"Little official, you're back!" A young woman came out of the kitchen, it turned out to be Sister-in-law Ju, I saw her wiping her hands with a handkerchief, and she greeted Li Yanqing a little embarrassed.

"It turned out to be Sister-in-law Ju, I said that this fragrance is so familiar!"

"My house is not far in front, and I heard that the little official came back alone, so I came over to cook for the little official."

Li Yanqing saw that she was a little fatter than before, and her complexion was good, so she smiled and said: "I haven't seen her for almost two years, and my little mother has grown up!" ”

"Hmmm! I'm five years old, and I have another Xiaolang, and I'm almost a year old. ”

"Congratulations! Congratulations! ”

Li Yanqing hurriedly went back to the house and took a gold ingot and handed it to Sister-in-law Ju, "This is the happy money for your marriage, and the meeting gift for the child!" ”

Sister-in-law Ju was startled, and hurriedly waved her hand, "I don't want it, I can't want it!" ”

Li Yanqing forced it to her, "You have followed me for a lot of time, how can I not show it." ”

Sister-in-law Ju had to take it, she was really a little ashamed in her heart, she was a servant woman bought by a petty official, and signed a ten-year contract to sell herself, it stands to reason that she must get the consent of the petty official to remarry, although the lord restored her good name, but she should at least say it to the petty official, but she didn't say that she has been ashamed of this matter for the past two years, but the petty official also rewarded her with gold.

Sister-in-law Ju was moved, but she felt even more guilty in her heart, she knelt down and cried, "Little official, I'm sorry for you!" ”

Li Yanqing was startled and hurriedly helped her up, "What are you doing here?" ”

"I.... I got married without the consent of the petty officials! Sister-in-law Ju whimpered and cried.

Li Yanqing was angry and funny, although he was indeed a little uncomfortable when he heard the news of Sister-in-law Ju's marriage, but almost two years have passed since this incident, and he has long forgotten it, but he didn't expect Sister-in-law Ju to keep it in his heart.

"Don't be sad about this little thing, I don't care about it at all, as long as you live a happy life, of course I'm happy for you."

At this time, Uncle Zhong also stepped forward and said with a smile: "I told you a long time ago, petty officials are people who do big things, and they won't remember your little sesame thing, so you don't believe it, now that you see it, are petty officials angry?" ”

"Thank you, little official!" Sister-in-law Ju choked up and said.

Li Yanqing smiled, "Don't mention this matter, Sister-in-law Ju, I'm hungry, let's eat!" ”

"Hey! I boiled brown sugar winter melon porridge for the little officials, and steamed mutton stuffed buns, all of which were breakfast that the little officials liked, and I brought them here. ”

Sister-in-law Ju was in a good mood and walked quickly to the kitchen.......

After breakfast, Li Yanqing got up and went to Tangwang Village, not to see Wang Gui in Tangwang Village, but to get his books, Yongji Canal has two wharves in Tangyin County, one is the county wharf, in the north of the county seat, and the other is the Tangwang Village wharf in Xiaohe Township, Li Yanqing and his father made an appointment to send his books to the Tangwang Village wharf.

The ship that delivered the book departed a day earlier than him, and in terms of time, the ship should have arrived.

Half an hour later, Li Yanqing arrived at the grove outside Tangwang Village, from here directly through the grove to the Yongji Canal Wharf, much closer than entering Tangwang Village, and the dogs in Tangwang Village are particularly fierce, every time he comes to Tangwang Village, there are always more than a dozen big dogs chasing him and barking, which really makes him unhappy.

As soon as Li Yanqing turned his horse's head, he walked along another road in the direction of Yongji Canal, but as soon as he walked dozens of steps, he heard someone behind him shouting: "Stinky boy, where are you going?" ”

As soon as Li Yanqing turned around, he saw Wang Gui appear next to the woods, holding a whistle stick in his hand, looking at him with an unhappy face, and he was followed by a beautiful girl, Li Yanqing recognized it at a glance, it was Tang Huai's sister's Tang Yuan'er.

Li Yanqing had to secretly scream bad luck, how could it be so coincidental that he met this haunting guy again, he had to turn his horse back, laugh and say: "I'll go to the dock, I guess my book has arrived." ”

"Why don't you go to the dock from the village, you kid doesn't want to see me, don't you?" Wang Gui said angrily.

"Agui is right, Lao Li just wants to avoid us." The glutinous rice balls are on the side.

Li Yanqing smiled dumbly, "I said you two, when did you become whatever you sang and whatever you wanted, and also, you two are here to enjoy the scenery, do you think I will join in and enjoy the scenery together?" ”

Tang Yuan's face suddenly turned red, glared at Li Yanqing fiercely, and said to Wang Gui: "Brother Gui, I'll go back first, and I'll come back to you when I get back, there's a bad guy talking nonsense here, which really affects my mood." ”

She turned around and left, Li Yanqing smiled: "Don't go!" I'll go to the docks to get something, and it won't affect you. ”

"I'm ignoring you!"

Tang Yuan'er dropped a sentence and walked quickly towards the village.

Li Yanqing turned his horse back and glanced at Wang Gui strangely, "Why don't you keep her?" ”

Wang Gui said listlessly: "She pulled me out early in the morning and forced me to propose to her family, I was thinking, why didn't Lao Li come?" It turned out that you really came, I thought it was providence! ”

Li Yanqing raised his eyebrows, "You stinky boy, isn't it a good thing for her to let you propose?" You haven't seen you for almost two years, and she's been thinking about you, such a good girl, you actually ..... Agui, to be honest, do you dislike her a little? ”

Wang Gui smiled bitterly, "How dare I dislike her, she is the granddaughter-in-law recognized by my grandfather, I just.... I just don't want to get married so early, I'm only sixteen years old, at least twenty years old before thinking about it! Anyway, she was only eighteen years old at the time, and I didn't know that she was only fourteen years old, so she was so anxious that she actually forced me to propose! ”

"She's afraid that you will change your mind, in a flowery place like Bianjing, a handsome, dashing and golden martial arts master like you must be followed by a large group of ......."

Without waiting for Li Yanqing to continue, Wang Gui waved a stick and struck, "Let you stinky boy talk about it!" ”

Li Yanqing pulled out his horse and dodged his stick, and couldn't help laughing, and Wang Gui couldn't help laughing, "Forget it, don't worry about people like you, I'll accompany you to the dock." ”

He pulled Li Yanqing off the horse, and the two walked towards the dock together.

Tangwangcun Wharf is more than 20 years ago, the Wang family and the Tang family jointly built, the Tang family opened a shop, the Wang family stopped the ship, there is a tavern on the wharf, there is a grocery shop, there is a ship repair shop, and there is a Di shop, all of which are the Tang family's industry, the Di shop is a bit like a post office, you can send letters and small goods, you can also save money here, basically all kinds of chores are done.

Li Yanqing's two large boxes of books had arrived, and he handed over the tokens to the men, and after a while, the two men dragged the two large boxes of books out on a wooden wheeled car.

At this time, the shopkeeper walked over with a smile and said, "These two big boxes of books weigh at least 100 catties, otherwise we will send them to Li Wencun for the little officials!" As long as 200 yuan for shipping, how about it? ”

Li Yanqing happily agreed, left the address to them, and asked them to go to Uncle Zhong to ask for money, and then he and Wang Gui came to the tavern next to them and sat down.

The two asked for a few plates of cold dishes and a pot of wine, and Li Yanqing drank a glass of wine and sighed: "Next year will be the first year of Xuanhe!" ”

"What did you say?"

Wang Gui was stunned for a moment, "How do you know the name of next year?" ”

Li Yanqing realized that he had missed his words, so he explained vaguely: "I heard what Taiwei Tong said, and I plan to change the era name to Xuanhe next year." ”

"Change it! What do you sigh about? ”

Li Yanqing pondered and said, "You still remember what I said about the Jurchens. ”

Wang Gui nodded, "You're right, the Liao Kingdom has been defeated repeatedly, and I estimate that they won't last a few years." ”

"So I told the clansmen that once the Jurchens destroyed the Liao State, they would definitely invade the south, and Xiangzhou would probably not escape the iron hooves of the Jurchens. Give yourself a way out early. ”

Wang Gui knew that Li Yanqing had let his father buy a lot of manors in the Jiangxia area of Ezhou, and he was obviously preparing for the future.

He nodded silently, "I know, I will persuade my grandfather to buy some land in the south to leave a way back for the family." ”

"Would your grandfather believe it?"

Wang Gui smiled slyly, "I'll tell him that it was Taiwei Tong who told you the secrets of the imperial court, and he will definitely believe it!" ”
