Dressed As a Farm Boy, He Cheated on His Way Out of the Desert. Chapter 84

Chapter 84: Life-saving grace will be rewarded generously!

The village chief got up early and met Uncle Zhao next door. He heard that the Li family was almost wiped out last night and was so frightened that he hurried over to visit.

Old Mrs. Li didn't hide anything and told the fourth child about the trouble he had caused.

The village chief sighed, "It's been a hard time these days. There have been many disasters. In order to survive, more and more people have gone astray."

Li Laosan nodded on the side, "When I entered the city a few days ago, there were fewer people on the streets. Although the grain shops are still selling grain, the price has not dropped much, and everyone can't afford it."

The village chief felt nervous and stood up quickly.

“No, I have to talk to the villagers again and walk in the fields more at night. Our crops are too eye-catching. If we persist for a few more days, we will collect them as soon as possible.”

 After saying that, he left in a hurry.

There were many people in the family, so Li Laosan took Jiayi to the city to do some shopping.

Mr. Ye's master and servant were originally distinguished guests, and he saved the lives of the whole family last night. He is a savior and cannot be neglected.

Dongmei wants to go with her, but Mrs. Li is afraid that she will spend money and refuses to let her go.

Dongmei didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so she took the opportunity to walk into the city. After buying food, she went to the silver house to pick up things, and then hired a carriage to return to Li's house.

Li Laosan just got home and bought a lot of chicken, fish, meat and eggs.

 Add these together, and there is a glut of food.

Tao Hongying and Zhao Yuru were worried. Fortunately, Mrs. Li remembered that she still had a granddaughter...

Anything that was afraid of spoilage was collected by the good news and put in the freezer in the small courtyard.

The freezer that was originally half empty was now half full.

 Doctor Zhang is really capable. Not only did he adjust the prescription, but he also gave Mr. Ye acupuncture every day and added delicious food and drink.

In just four or five days, Mr. Ye stopped coughing.

The Li family, old and young, were all happy for Young Master Ye, but they were not allowed to have wine to celebrate, so the village became a little chaotic.

First, relatives of each family came to the village to borrow food. Naturally, the village would not borrow and there was no food to borrow.

Then there were several families who had rented the house before and then moved away. When they heard that the Li family only lent grain to the villagers, they made a fuss and wanted to move back.

Because of the ungrateful incident of grabbing water, the villagers didn't like them, and of course they didn't agree with them moving back.

As a result, bad words about Qingshui Village gradually spread in eight villages within ten miles.

People in the world have always been worried not about scarcity but about inequality.

Every family lost their income, and only the Li family managed to keep food. This was a sin.

No one thought that the Li family wanted to wear out their shoulders and bend their backs to save these thirty acres of land.

They didn't have anyone to help them at that time, but they were all idiots and idiots.

The village chief and several old men felt as if they were facing a powerful enemy. They did not dare to close their eyes every night and just stared at a few crops.

I just hope that it will grow for a few more days, so that I can harvest as soon as possible in early August.

 At such a tense moment, Jiayin's first anniversary is coming.

The Li family stretched their necks, hoping that Mr. Li would come back.

If it weren't for the inability to leave the field and home, Li Laosan and Jiayi would have gone out to greet him.

Mrs. Li's mouth was full of bubbles and she couldn't eat. She could only eat porridge three times a day. She was worried about her son as if she was fried in oil.

Even so, everyone in the Li family did not neglect Young Master Ye in the slightest.

Three meals a day, a combination of meat and vegetables. The food is not exquisite, but it is delicious and comfortable.

Mr. Ye and others were also easy to get along with. Ye Shan didn't need the Li family to get involved, so he took the Jianghu man out to deal with it.

 In terms of life, death, and how to deal with it, the Li family has no problem.

Dashan often played with Jiaxi and Jiaan, and at night he followed the old men next door to inspect the fields.

Dongmei helps with laundry and cooking, and gets along well with Tao Hongying.

Even Young Master Ye would hug him when he saw good news, he was loving and patient.

It was a light rain day, and the Li family was busy chopping dumpling fillings, planning to make some dumplings to eat, which would be warm and satisfying.

Mr. Ye took Jiayin in his arms and played in the courtyard. He threw stones and knocked down a sparrow on the tree, making Jiayin clap his hands and laugh.

Mr. Ye said to Mrs. Li when his consciousness was completely restored. "Auntie, after dinner, let Dashan ride a horse and take Jiayi to welcome the fourth child. Dashan is good at martial arts, and he can protect the fourth child when he comes back safely."

Mrs. Li was extremely surprised and quickly thanked her.

She had already had this intention, but Mr. Ye was ill, so it was appropriate for Ye Shan to stay and protect him. Moreover, their family, old and young, are also afraid that the Jianghu people will seek revenge again.

I didn't expect Mr. Ye to propose it on his own initiative, which would be great.

Everyone had hope, and their men worked harder, and soon the dumplings were in trouble.

As a result, before it was cooked, Li Laosi's loud voice could be heard outside the hospital.

 “Mom, I'm back!”

Everyone in the Li family immediately threw away their work and ran out madly.

Seeing that it was really Li Laosi, everyone happily pulled him and cried and laughed.

 The old men next door heard the commotion and came over to talk and offer some words of advice.

Li Laosi traveled day and night and was tired and thin. But when he got home and saw that everyone in his family was safe, it was more worth it than anything else.

Finally washed up and settled down. He heard from Tao Hongying that he had been in danger before, and he wanted to slap himself to death.

 As soon as he entered the room, he knelt down directly in front of Mr. Ye.

“Young Master Ye, I, Li Qiusheng, have been so kind and kind that I will never forget you. If the master has something to do in the future, please feel free to send him, and I, Li Qiusheng, will definitely repay you for saving your life.”

Mr. Ye helped him up with his own hands and responded sincerely.

"I was seriously ill when I was passing by. It was your family who took me in and took care of me, and I recovered today. I would also like to thank your family for saving my life."

"That's different. It's not easy to go out. Of course you have to help me if you have something to do." Li Laosi looked grateful but not afraid, and saluted again.

 Everyone sat down for a while and started eating dumplings. Li Laosi ate a large bowl in one go, always feeling that something was wrong.

 Looking around, he realized that his precious daughter was actually sitting in Mr. Ye's arms...

Did he go out for just a few days before his daughter recognized someone else as her father?

After dinner, everyone sat down and chatted. Mr. Ye asked about the situation in the south.

 Li Laosi frowned as he hugged his daughter who had finally coaxed her over.

“The situation in the south is worse than here. We are suffering from drought, but when it rains, we can replant vegetables and barely survive.

 But it started to rain again after the drought in the south, so replanting was impossible. We were delayed just because the road was blocked by the falling rocks in Luoyu Mountain, otherwise we could have returned a few days earlier. "

 Everyone sighed, "God won't let the people live."

Mr. Ye didn't know what he was thinking of, and his expression turned bad. “The imperial court will waive the grain tax, so we can survive this year.”

Li Laosi shook his head and gritted his teeth with hatred, "The main reason is that those dog officials are afraid of delaying their political achievements, so they don't report it at all. The court doesn't know about the disaster, and the people are the ones being cheated!"

 Everyone couldn't help but curse, "It's so wicked. How can the imperial court use such a person as an official?"

“The mountains are high and the emperor is far away. This is because the court doesn't know.”

Mr. Ye's face was dark and he didn't speak...

Jiayin leaned in his father's arms, feeling a little flustered for no reason.

 It seemed like some unknown disaster was coming and she was unable to resist...

Li Laosi came back safely. Everyone, old and young, was relieved and in the mood to hold Luo Jiayin's first-year banquet.

In this year, the Li family can't do anything big. They can only organize two banquets and invite several friends in the village to have fun.

On that day, a big red cloth was spread on the floor of the Li family hall, and some rouge, gouache, four treasures of the study, purses, jewelry, and even abacus daggers were placed.

The good news lived up to expectations. According to grandma's wishes, she grabbed a pen and a dagger.

Old Mrs. Li was so happy that she kept talking about how her granddaughter would be both civil and military when she grew up, and didn't care about the weird looks on everyone's face.

 In the old lady's heart, her granddaughter is the best.

 What's wrong with girls? Why can't they be both civilized and military?

At the wine table, Mr. Ye sent congratulatory gifts. Before everyone in the Li family could be polite, the good news started to come out anxiously.

 The box was filled with golden light, and the good news stung my tears, but tears flowed out of the corners of my mouth!
