12, the master has modified it, please read it later)
"Maybe I'm overthinking it."
Li Yaozu rubbed his brows and sat down on the stool next to the dining table.
He thought it was because he was scaring himself.
From the time Wei Tu was sold to the Li family, the Li family has never done anything wrong to Wei Tu, and it is impossible for Wei Tu to take risks just because of such a trivial matter.
——Forcing Xinghua to submit has not happened yet. On the way to Fucheng, he just mentioned that Wei Tu should be Li Xingye's follower.
No matter how much I think about it, I can't think of that.
"It's probably just a coincidence."
Li Yaozu said the word "should" again in his mind, trying to comfort himself.
But his heart couldn't calm down. He thought of the direct look Wei Tu had given him when he straightened his back when he left. That look was not the look a slave should have, nor was it the behavior a person who expressed gratitude should have.
"I'm going out for a while." Li Yaozu planned to go out for a walk to relax.
After saying hello to Mrs. Li Tong, he lifted up the lower part of his robe and walked out of the hall.
Along the corridor, through the courtyard and the moon gate, Li Yaozu came to the outer house. He stood under the eaves, stopped and glanced at the stables.
The half-big black horse snorted and ate only a finger's thick of fodder left in the trough.
There are piles of hay that have been chopped near the bluestone next to the wall, which can last for about ten days.
Li Yaozu approached the stable and tiptoed to take a look at the hygiene in the stable. Seeing that it was clean and tidy, there was no night excrement or urination from the dark horse last night. His hanging heart was completely in his stomach, and there was a hint of admiration in his eyes.
.
"I'm overthinking it. Brother Wei is a good young man." Li Yaozu thought.
When he returned to the inner house, he passed by the kitchen and smelled the aroma of meat and vegetables coming from the open window. It seemed as if another heavy burden had been lifted from his body. He walked with his right hand on his back and felt more relaxed.
"Get a pen and paper." Li Yaozu sat back on the stool where he was sitting before and ordered the maid next to Li Tongshi.
"Master, get the paper and pen...what do you want to write?" Li Tongshi was confused. Li Yaozu was not a literati who wrote poems casually. He rarely started writing, especially during meal time.
"I have a long-time friend in Sanyuan Township. He is a martial arts graduate. Since Brother Wei is going to take the martial arts examination, let's do our best and help him."
Li Yaozu explained.
"Sir, what kind of hysteria are you suffering from? Are you confused?" Li Tong was surprised. When they were discussing the ransom money in the inner hall, she had asked for a favor and reduced Wei Tu's ransom money by several taels.
——If the price of the ransom money is too high, when the wives of wealthy families gather together, they will say that the Li family is from a low background and is jealous of money.
At this time, Chunlan had already taken the paper, ink, pen and inkstone from the inner hall and started to grind Li Yaozu's ink.
"Hysteria?" Li Yaozu's hand holding the pen paused, his face was slightly unhappy, he frowned and cursed: "Woman is short-sighted."
Then, Li Yaozu ignored Li Tongshi. He followed the blue vertical lines on the letter paper and started writing the content.
After finishing writing, he took out his private seal and stamped the letter with a red seal.
"If what you see is true, your faith is a good relationship. If what you see is false, if you think deeply, you can also solve a disaster."
Li Yaozu looked at the letter and touched his goatee, his eyes sparkling.
Favor of support is as important as Mount Tai. If Wei Tune takes revenge, he won't even have a chance to be a swordsman.
Swordsmen are the most loyal.
"Go and give it to Brother Wei." Li Yaozu put the letter into the envelope, handed it to the maid beside him, and ordered.
…
Soon, Wei Tu, who was packing his luggage in the hall, received another letter written to him by his master Li Yaozu.
The envelope of this letter was the same as the previous one containing the deed and certification letters. It was empty, so Wei Tu could easily read what was written in the envelope.
"Sanyuan Township Shan Juren? Let me work there as a long-term worker and learn some boxing and kicking skills from Shan Juren so that I can prepare for next year's martial arts examination?"
After reading the letter, Wei Tu's reaction was similar to Li Tong's, both felt that the sun was rising in the west.
Has Li Yaozu changed his gender?
This letter seems to be just a letter, but the person I am asking for is a martial arts master, and the favor I have paid is not small at all.
Human relations are all about communication.
There is no such thing as asking for nothing in return.
"Sanyuan Township is not far from the county seat, only a day's walk."
"Now that I have redeemed myself, Li Yaozu will not deliberately cheat me on this matter. This matter is most likely true."
Wei Tu hesitated for a while, and finally made up his mind. He decided to go to Shan Ji's house in Sanyuan Township to work as a long-term worker as mentioned in the letter, and by the way, he asked this martial arts senior for some tips on taking the exam.
It's only mid-summer now, and there's still more than half a year before the martial arts exam in February next year.
He deviated from the original plan and redeemed himself early. The remaining half a year meant that he would probably not be able to make a penny during this period, and would be left with nothing.
In the county town, during the slack season, the most indispensable thing is the men who come from the countryside to ask for work.
Even if there is no salary and the host family is responsible for food and accommodation, it is not easy to find a job.
Otherwise, Xinghua wouldn't have had such a big reaction when she heard that Wei Tu wanted to redeem herself.
Compared with redemption, the real difficulty is that the servants after redemption often have no way to survive.
"Thank you Bodhisattva for your blessing. Thank you Bodhisattva for your blessing..."
In the evening, after seeing Li Yaozu's handwritten letter, Xinghua smiled, knelt in the corner, knelt down and kowtowed three times in the direction of the county town God's Temple.
In the first half of today, she was almost always on tenterhooks, worried that Wei Tu would be beaten with a stick by the angry Li Yaozu and thrown out of Li's house.
Or Wei Tu betrayed the Li family and made a fuss, causing the Yamen police officers to search the city all night, looking for escaped slaves.
However.
Buddha bless.
After today, her husband Wei Tu not only redeemed his contract as he wished, but also received a "letter of recommendation" from her master Li Yaozu, which made her unhappy.
"Brother Wei, I will pack your clothes and food right now. After you go to the county office tomorrow to finish your business, you can leave early for Sanyuan Township..." After Xinghua thanked the gods and Buddhas all over the sky, she had no time to spare and began to prepare pictures for Wei.
I packed up my clothes, money and food for the trip.
"In half a month, it will be wheat harvest, and I won't be here in the county..." Wei Tu sighed.
If he goes to work as a long-term worker in Shanju's family, he will definitely not be free during the wheat harvest. He will never have time to go back to the county town to cut wheat and harvest grain.
As for Xinghua, a womanly woman, she had to work on Li's house's meals during the day. Even if she was free at night, it would be too dangerous to go out of the city.
"How come you don't understand the priorities in this? Even if three acres of food are wasted in the fields, it is not as important as your future." Xinghua tightened her face and looked unhappy, like a quarrelsome yellow-faced woman.
.
"Even if I can't cut the wheat, I can still ask other tenants to cut the wheat. It just costs a little more money."
Xinghua said again.
This sentence completely dispelled Wei Tu's worries. He nodded and agreed to leave for Sanyuan Township tomorrow.
