Li Sanlang was not admitted to the private school, and everyone in the Li family was very angry.
Li Wuya looked at Li Sanlang: "Brother, should we go find Governor Cai?"
Li Sanlang was silent for a moment, then shook his head: "I don't think it's worthwhile to waste the favor that Governor Cai owes us for a place in a private school."
"It's not like the government school can only take the exam once. If you don't get admitted this time, the worst thing is that I will go there next time when new students are recruited. You can't give me the nod every time."
Li Wuya: "But this will delay your time for at least a year."
Li Sanlang smiled and said: "It's only been one year, so it won't delay anything. It just so happens that our family has just arrived in Rongcheng and we don't know anything yet. The purchase of land has not been finalized yet, so I can help at home."
Seeing that Li Wuya was still frowning, he smiled and stepped forward to nod her head.
"Okay, little housekeeper, let's leave this matter as it is. I can only blame my bad luck if I get pushed back."
Li Qilang said angrily: "Those people who use the back door are really annoying."
Li Wuya glanced at him: "The main reason is that our family is too weak. If our family were strong enough, others would not dare to do this."
"So Qilang, you should study hard and try to take the examination for children next year, the scholar examination the year after that, and the judicial examination the year after that."
Li Qilang said "Ah". Although he had always thought that he was very good and powerful, he still had no confidence that he had won the exam in three years.
That night, Li Changsen tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.
Jin Yue'e saw her and asked, "Master, are you still thinking about Saburo?"
Li Changsen was silent for a while before speaking: "Tell me, should I go find that family?" In the face of his child's future, the entanglements and worries in his heart didn't matter.
Jin Yue'e suddenly sat up and said, "Master, please don't do this. Saburo won't be happy if he finds out."
The husband can come to the house at any time if he wants to recognize his wife, but he must not come to the door when he wants to marry someone. How does this make the family view the husband and their family?
Li Changsen: "I just feel so useless. When my child encounters something, I, as a father, can't help at all."
Jin Yue'e held his hand: "Master, don't think so. Isn't it just a matter of waiting one more year? With Sanlang's skill, I believe that my son can have a bright future even if he goes to school a year later."
"If you delay this year, you will delay it. How can everything go smoothly in this life? Saburo is old, and it is time to let him experience things."
Li Changsen didn't speak anymore, staring at the roof with his eyes open, his face full of complex and tangled expressions, but he soon became determined again.
Early the next morning, Li Sanlang sent Li Qilang to register at Fu Xue. Li Erya and Li Wuya were waiting for Jin Yue'e to pack up and prepare to visit Mrs. Qiao.
"Sister, look, dad has gone out alone."
Li Wuya saw her father quietly going out through the back door alone, and immediately pulled Li Erya to follow him: "Mom, let's go out for a while."
Although Li Changsen's body has not recovered yet, he is almost in good condition and there is no problem in going out for activities.
At first, he didn't realize that he was being followed by his two daughters, but when he walked to the street where Chiang's mansion was located, he hesitated a little, stopped and turned around from time to time, and then saw his two daughters who hadn't hid in time.
"You...you..."
Li Wuya smiled coquettishly and pulled Li Erya over: "Dad, we were a little worried when we saw you going out alone, so we followed you."
Li Changsen glanced at his little daughter, wondering if he knew what this ghost girl was thinking.
Li Wuya walked up to Li Changsen with a smile, took his arm and asked, "Dad, what are you doing here?"
Li Changsen: "Can't I just walk around?"
Li Wuya smiled stiffly: "Okay, of course, it's okay. You just want to walk around casually, and you're a little far away from our house."
At this moment, Li Erya suddenly said "Hey": "Wuya, look, is that old man the same person who asked us at the door of the inn last time?"
Li Wuya looked for the sound and immediately saw Jiang Sheng standing in front of the gate of Jiang Mansion talking to the boy: "That's the old man."
Li Changsen raised his eyebrows and asked eagerly: "Do you know that old man?"
Li Erya shook his head: "I don't know. In July last year, the old man was going to Dielingguan to see his friends. When he passed by Tianlingtun, he stopped us and asked us."
"Last July?"
Li Changsen's expression tightened. Wasn't that what happened after he chased General Beiyan to stay in Rongcheng and returned to Rongcheng? "What did he ask you?"
Looking at Li Changsen who looked anxious, Li Wuya's eyes flashed, he looked at Jiang Mansion and then at Jiang Sheng, thoughtfully.
Li Erya: "It's nothing. He just asked about our family casually. Qilang said he looked like a human trafficker, so we didn't say much to him."
"But I heard from my mother that he stayed at the inn for several days and even talked to her several times."
Li Changsen's hands hanging by his sides were holding on to his clothes tightly, shaking slightly because of too much force.
The Jiang family knew about him and even went to Tianlingtun to inquire about him!!!
He must have been seen by the Jiang family when he was in Rongcheng.
He looks so similar to the second master of the Jiang family. He can think of his relationship with the Jiang family, and the Jiang family can naturally think of it...
Therefore, the Jiang family sent people to Tianlingtun to investigate.
But... the Chiang family knew about his existence, but did nothing.
The Jiang family doesn’t want to recognize themselves!
Li Changsen looked at Jiang Mansion with deep hurt in his eyes: "Let's go home!"
Realizing that Li Changsen was depressed, Li Erya and Li Wuya did not dare to ask any more questions, so they supported Li Changsen and turned around to leave.
After returning home, Li Changsen was in a daze for a long time. It was not until Li Sanlang took him to see the place that he slowly recovered. From then on, he never mentioned that he wanted to recognize his relatives again.
...
Still couldn't buy a large piece of good land, so Li Changsen took Li Sanlang for an on-site inspection and bought 20 acres of good land. Because it was too far apart, it was inconvenient to manage, so he finally found Shang Laojiu as a tenant.
Several households were given farming duties.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! It was difficult to buy land, and Li Sanlang was even offered a place in the government school. When the Li family first came to Rongcheng, they saw how difficult it was to make a living in Rongcheng.
Here, money alone is not enough, you also need status and power.
"What, Dad, you and your brother want to go darling?!"
Li Wuya, Jin Yue'e, Li Erya, and Li Qilang looked at Li Changsen and Li Sanlang with surprise.
Jin Yue'e was anxious: "The running darts are so threatening, can't we not go?"
Li Changsen quickly reassured: "This is what Sanlang and I decided after discussing together. It is not easy to find a good job in Rongcheng. The money earned by running darts is relatively more."
"Changsen and I run escorts together and we can take care of each other. We only escort escorts around Rongcheng. We won't go far and there won't be any danger."
Li Sanlang also followed up and said: "Guard escorts travel to many places, which can increase their knowledge. Growing up, I have never been to other places except around Tianlingtun."
"Furthermore, my father and I have been practicing martial arts for so many years, so we can't let it go to waste. Dart running is the most suitable job for us."
"Maybe in the future, dad and I can set up an escort agency."
Li Wuya looked at the two of them and said nothing.
She understands her father and her brother in her heart.
Her father is the head of the family, so he naturally wants to support the family. Her brother probably has the same idea, so even if the family is not short of money for the time being, the two of them want to make more money back.
This is a personal value and pursuit. Since they have made a decision, they just have to respect it.
Later, Li Changsen took Li Sanlang as a dart boy; Li Qilang went to the government school; Li Erya and Li Wuya went to Mrs. Qiao's place to study literacy and learn to be a female prostitute; Jin Yue'e took care of the family's food, clothing, housing and transportation at home.
Everyone had their own things to do, and the Li family's life became settled.
...
It's April in the blink of an eye.
On the second day of April, Shang Laojiu came to Li's house to look for Li Wuya. Jin Yue'e went out to buy groceries. The door was closed. Shang Laojiu knocked on the door for a while and saw no one opened it. As he was about to leave, he heard faint sounds from the yard.
The sound of a sharp sword piercing the air.
He is also a martial arts practitioner, and when he heard the sound, he knew that someone was practicing swordsmanship.
He was really curious about the Li family.
At first, he thought that Li Wuya and Li Qilang were the children of Bai Yueguang and Black Lotus, but after meeting Li Changsen and Jin Yue'e, he knew that he was wrong.
For this reason, he also specially sent people to check the Li family.
This investigation was incredible. It was strange that a military household actually changed its status to a civilian household during a time of intense war.
How did they do it?
Jiubian Ya Store has business in many border towns. He happened to know a chief of Dielingguan, so he knew the reason for the change of the Li family's household registration.
Li Changsen burned Beiyan's grain and grass and still survived. Li Sanlang and Li Qilang dared to risk going deep into the rear of Beiyan to save their father, and finally succeeded!
These all add a layer of mystery to the Li family!
Therefore, even if he found out clearly that this was an ordinary family with no background or connections, he would not dare to show any slightness.
He has seen Li Wuya and Li Qilang's kung fu, and they can kill eighth-level warriors, but what about the others?
Who is practicing swordsmanship in the yard?
Shang Laojiu couldn't hold back his curiosity and quietly climbed up the wall. Then he saw Li Erya in the yard holding a long sword and dancing fast and neatly.
How fast is the sword?
It was so fast that he could barely see the sword clearly, and could only see the sword light reflected by the sun.
"who?!"
As soon as the voice came out, Shang Laojiu felt a strong sense of crisis in his heart. Without thinking, he shouted: "Second girl, it's me, Shang Laojiu."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shang Laojiu saw the cold-gleaming long sword pointed directly at his throat, and he was already lying on the wall and on the ground.
He could clearly feel the sharp and cold touch of the sword tip.
too fast!
He didn't even have a chance to dodge!
At this moment, Shang Laojiu had no doubts. If he hadn't spoken out earlier, he might have died!
Seeing clearly that it was Shang Laojiu, Li Erya frowned and took back his sword: "Why are you here? Okay, why are you climbing over the wall?"
Shang Laojiu struggled to get up and replied: "Second girl, it's like this. Before, the third girl asked me to find out if there was any shop suitable for opening a pharmacy. Didn't I have news here, so I came over immediately to tell her.
"
"I just knocked on your door, but no one answered. I heard noises in the yard, so I couldn't help but climb over the wall to take a look."
Li Erya knew that the man who opened the dental shop was very tactful and could not believe everything he said. He guessed that he might want to find out about the situation of the Li family, so his expression was not very good.
"Don't climb over the wall again in the future, I can't stop it every time."
Shang Laojiu said quickly: "I don't dare anymore, I don't dare anymore, I absolutely don't dare anymore."
Li Erya: "Wuya is still practicing at Madam Qiao's place. She will be back in an hour. If you have anything to do, you can leave first."
Shang Laojiu wanted to say that he was fine, but it seemed that Li Erya was the only one at home, so he had no choice but to leave first.
As soon as he walked out of Li's house, Shang Laojiu couldn't help but pat his chest and wipe the cold sweat from his forehead.
Scared him to death!
Shang Laojiu touched his cold neck and felt inexplicably sad. He was an eighth-level warrior, and he could be considered a master in Rongcheng.
But look at what kind of monsters these four brothers and sisters he encountered were. At such a young age, one move could kill him.
After the fear, Shang Laojiu became happy again. The stronger the Li brothers and sisters were, the stronger the teacher behind them was.
"It seems that Bai Yueguang and Black Lotus are most likely their teachers."
.......
Not long after Shang Laojiu left, Li Wuya came back with her guqin in her arms. As soon as she walked to the door, she saw her mother greeting her neighbor next door warmly, but the other person turned a blind eye and went straight back to the house.
"mother!"
Jin Yue'e was embarrassed, but when she saw Li Wuya coming back, she smiled again on her face.
"Mom, don't pay attention to people like this in the future."
Jin Yue'e was a little confused: "When our family first moved here, they were quite nice. Why have they suddenly become cold during this time?"
"Why else? Let's find out the background of our family."
Li Erya walked out of the house: "The neighbor on the left has a son who is a scholar; the neighbor on the right has someone who works in the Duhu Mansion, and we are just ordinary people. They feel they are superior to us, so they don't want to talk to us.
That’s it.”
Jin Yue'e frowned: "Why is this so?"
Li Wuya smiled and said: "Actually, this is quite normal. Tianlingtun is a society of acquaintances, and everyone will help when something happens, so the relationship is relatively good."
"But in Rongcheng, no one knows anyone. You have to be valuable and bring benefits to others before others will take the initiative to make friends with you. Mom, you can get used to it in the future."
Jin Yue'e sighed and entered the door with her two daughters.
I originally thought that living in Rongcheng was just a change of place, but after living there, I realized that the living environment had changed, and my previous ideas of doing things had to change accordingly.
After returning to the house, Li Erya told her about Shang Laojiu's visit to her, and also told her about how she scared him.
"It's so scary. Although Shang Laojiu is very attentive to us on the surface, he might have some little Jiujiu in his heart. Knowing how powerful we are, he will be more dedicated to his work."
"You want to open a pharmacy? How much money will it cost?"
"I still have more than eight thousand taels of silver in my hand, which is enough."
"Okay, why are you thinking about opening a pharmacy?"
"I want a better life, sister. I see that the girls who go to study at Mrs. Qiao's place are accompanied by maids and wives, and their food and clothing are taken care of. I want it too."
