On the twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, amid the enthusiastic expectations of Li Wuya and Li Qilang, Li Sanlang finally took Li Changsen, Jin Yuee, and Li Erya to Rongcheng.
At this time, Rongcheng was very lively, with lights and colorful decorations on the streets, and the joy of the New Year was everywhere.
Looking at the bustling and bustling Rongcheng, Jin Yue'e, Li Sanlang and Li Erya all had beautiful expectations for their future lives in their eyes. Only Li Changsen was slightly out of sorts because he was thinking about the Jiang family.
"Sanlang, where did we buy our house?"
Although this was her first time in Rongcheng, and although she had never bought a house before, Jin Yue'e still knew that the further you go toward the center of the city, the more expensive the house prices become.
Li Sanlang smiled and said, "Mom, our house is next to Fuxue, and we'll be there just two blocks away."
Jin Yue'e looked worried: "The house in this area is not cheap, isn't it? Although we got a hundred taels of silver from the Governor, we still have to save some money. Living in the city has a lot of expenses, so we can't be too lavish."
Hearing this, the smile on Li Sanlang's face became a little forced.
The 100 taels given by the governor were spent early, and more than 300 taels were spent on buying a house. Wuya and Qilang also added more than 200 taels.
Li Sanlang was also a little worried. Although he knew that his younger brothers and sisters had no shortage of money, he was the elder brother and could not ask for money from his younger brothers and sisters in the future.
Yes, after the New Year, he had to have breakfast and do errands as soon as possible.
Not long after, the new home arrived.
Before they even got close, Li Sanlang and others saw Li Wuya and Li Qilang standing in front of their new home, posting couplets.
"Wuya, Qilang!"
Li Sanlang shouted, and Li Wuya and Li Qilang turned around and saw their family coming. They didn't care that the couplets hadn't been posted yet, so they ran over.
"Father, mother, second sister, you guys are here!"
Li Changsen was injured, so Li Sanlang rented an ox cart. After entering the city, Jin Yue'e and Li Erya got out of the cart. Only Li Changsen was lying in the cart covered with a quilt.
Li Wuya stepped forward to help Jin Yue'e and Li Erya help Li Changsen out of the car, while Li Sanlang and Li Qilang went to the moving car to salute.
Looking at the majestic high-walled compound in front of her, Jin Yue'e had joy and disbelief on her face: "This is our home?"
Li Wuya smiled and nodded: "Yes, mother, let's come in quickly. How about going in and taking a look at the new home that Qilang and I have decorated?"
After saying that, he and Li Erya helped Li Changsen through the door.
"This house is too..."
After entering the door, Jin Yue'e looked to the left and touched the right, as if she couldn't understand it: "This house is too good. I'm afraid the one hundred taels of silver given by the governor have been spent by you, right?"
Li Changsen glanced at Li Wuya: "One hundred taels of silver can't buy two people into the courtyard. Where did you get the money?"
To Li Sanlang, Li Wuya dared to tell the truth, but to Li Changsen and Jin Yue'e, Li Wuya did not want to tell the truth.
First, she doesn’t know their acceptance level. As parents, they always think too much and worry about this and that, for fear that they will worry;
Secondly, taking away the Huyan family's stronghold and Tianluomen's lair is just a trivial matter, just like a child acting outside, there is no need to let the family know.
So, Li Wuya decisively passed the blame to Li Sanlang, who had just walked in with a salute: "It's brother. He rescued a caravan before. In order to thank him, the people of the caravan directly gave him a...
.One thousand taels of silver."
Li Sanlang, whose pot came from the sky: "..."
Jin Yue'e's eyes widened: "One thousand taels of silver! How could you give so much?"
Li Sanlang coughed lightly: "Well... the caravan encountered a pack of wolves and was almost wiped out. I saved them, and that's why they gave so much." After saying that, he gave Li Wuya a death glare.
.
Li Wuya turned her head away from him.
Li Changsen looked at his eldest son and youngest daughter and said nothing.
After visiting the house, Jin Yue'e already liked this new home. Except that the west wing was a bit old, she was very satisfied with everything else.
"Sister, this is our room. How about it? I decorated it well, right?"
Li Erya looked at the east wing carefully and nodded with satisfaction. Everything in the room was brand new, unlike the west wing which was full of used items.
"Our home is yours to enjoy."
"Don't I want everyone to use it more comfortably?"
"It feels good, but where does the money come from?" Seeing Li Wuya open his mouth to answer, Li Erya snorted, "Don't lie to me with the words you used to fool your parents. If I really saved some caravan,
Can he not tell me when he gets home?"
Li Wuya knew that he could not hide it from Li Erya, and he did not want to hide it from her, so he told her everything he had done with Li Qilang in Rongcheng.
Li Erya's eyelids couldn't help but twitch as he watched his younger sister talking lightly about how she and her younger brother took over the family's stronghold and lair.
"Second sister, I took in a younger brother two days ago. He is a dentist. I have a few caravans at my disposal, which I can barely use."
Li Erya stretched out his hand to scratch his head and didn't want to talk anymore.
She finally understood her brother’s complicated and hesitant mood!
"sister!"
Seeing that Li Erya was distracted, Li Wuya stretched out his hand and waved it in front of her: "Sister, don't worry, I won't mess around. I have thought about it. From now on, we will study, read and learn female celebrities at home, and also learn
City people, be a gentle and quiet boudoir lady."
Li Erya looked at her suspiciously: "Do you really think so?"
Li Wuya nodded hurriedly, and raised his hand to swear: "It's absolutely true, it really can't be true anymore."
Li Erya reluctantly believed her.
With the arrival of family members, the Li family yard became lively.
Jin Yue'e took Li Erya and Li Wuya to work in the kitchen. Li Changsen sat on the ledge, looking at Li Sanlang and Li Qilang setting out the dishes and chopsticks. The whole family's faces were filled with smiles from the inside out.
...
During the Chinese New Year, when they went out to play, Li Wuya and Li Qilang brought Li Sanlang, and Li Erya brought Jiubian Yaxing.
"Brother, sister, the boss of the dental shop is our little brother."
"What did you bring us here for?"
"Let me show you the way. In the future, if we want to make a living in Rongcheng, we will definitely find him usefully. After all, he is a man who works in the dental industry. He is very smooth. I want to find out more about his background."
"How to detect?"
"Follow him! It happens that every household is visiting relatives and friends during the Chinese New Year. We can't know anything about him. We have to see what connections he has in Rongcheng."
"Why!"
Li Wuya sighed: "If we had someone reliable, we wouldn't have to follow him personally."
Li Sanlang: "It's reliable and needs to be used. I'm afraid only those who have been trained by rich families since childhood will have children and followers."
Speaking of a wealthy family, Li Wuya couldn't help but ask: "Brother, do you know your father's life experience?"
Li Sanlang shook his head.
Li Wuya looked disappointed: "I thought you knew it, even if you know the last name, so we can investigate in secret."
