Early in the morning, the villagers in each village got up very early, some went to the fields, and some packed up and prepared to go out to do business.
As for Mr. Li, today is a special day and they are going to the Governor's Mansion.
Aunt Li served the rice that had been prepared long ago, which was just a few steamed buns and a bowl of pickled vegetable dumplings.
"Old man, let's eat."
"Hey, mother." Dad Li changed into his best clothes, which were only made of coarse cloth. "You wait for me at home. I don't know if I can get the money, but that official lady
, it should be quite weighty, so don’t worry about me.”
When he came back last night, he showed the old lady the jade pendant that Xia Bingyan gave her. He didn't notice it during the day, but when he shined it under the light, it actually glowed inside. Even if he had never seen the world, he knew that this jade pendant was absolutely worth it.
Thousands of gold.
"I know, you have to be careful on the road. I always feel like my eyelids are twitching so much." They are all good citizens who do their duty. They don't even go out of the village much, let alone the government. Now they suddenly have to go.
The Governor's Mansion made this old woman, who had faced the loess and turned her back to the sky all her life, unable to help but sigh and feel scared.
"My dear, don't keep saying depressing words, I'm still waiting to have my grandson." He said in a low voice.
"Is Father Li at home?"
Aunt Li was about to say something else, but a voice from outside interrupted her.
She glanced at Father Li in confusion, got up and walked out, and saw a man in green clothes with a sword in his hand. Judging from the material of the clothes, it was brocade.
"Who are you looking for?" Aunt Li asked carefully.
The visitor bowed his hand and said politely, "In the name of young lady, I am here to escort Mr. Li to the Governor's Mansion."
Hearing this, Aunt Li became even more frightened. She wanted to be protected when she went to the Governor's Mansion. But she still invited the visitor in timidly.
Father Li was munching on the breakfast in front of him. When someone came in, he put down his chopsticks, stood up and wiped his body, "Master, you are here, do it quickly, do it quickly." As he said this, he moved the food aside.
He lifted up his sleeves and wiped the small stool several times before placing it in front of the visitor.
"My dear, go get some water." Father Li called to Aunt Li. He knew this man. He was the man who was following the young lady yesterday. There were not many people there at the time, so he looked at her carefully.
Unexpectedly, the man waved his hand and did not sit down, "You're welcome, Father Li. He's still waiting for me outside. It's not a big deal this time. It's just that the lady is afraid that someone will stop you from going to the Governor's Mansion, so she asked us to come over and take a look. She
It’s so reassuring.”
Aunt Li held the water in her hand, and walked up to him timidly, saying, "Sir, I don't know anything. I just want to ask you if it's really dangerous. Will my old man get into trouble?"
When Father Li heard this, he glared at the old woman, "Don't talk nonsense, the eldest man is here to protect me, what else can happen to me." Then he looked at the visitor apologetically, "Don't take it to heart, eldest man, it doesn't matter.
I know a few words, but I don’t know how to speak properly.”
The man in Tsing Yi nodded nonchalantly, "Don't worry, Madam, we will protect you on the road. Nothing will happen."
"Oh, that's good." Aunt Li agreed, but she felt uneasy after all.
"Mother, I'm leaving. You take care of your home." Father Li patted the dust on his clothes, got up and left with the man in green.
When we arrived at the village head, there were already several strong young men from the village waiting, as well as several men also wearing green clothes, and a man wearing black clothes.
"Head, everyone is here."
Wei Zhong glanced at the villagers in front of him and then nodded.
"Let's go, don't keep Madam waiting."
After sliding down and getting on their horses, several farmers also got into the cars they had brought.
