This meal by the river didn’t last as long as yesterday.
After the banquet, Cheng Xue declined the help from Luo Shi and others, sent them to the carriage, and then took her family to pack up.
They were the second batch to leave. After all, there was a lot of stuff. The car was packed to the brim, but as long as the effect was good, it would be fine.
Xiao Qinglin also wanted to give it away, but unexpectedly Xiao Feng didn't stop him this time.
This made Master Xiao doubt his own ears. What did the second uncle say just now?
Mrs. Wang looked at her nephew's silly nephew, gave him a gentle push, and said:
"If you don't follow me quickly, your uncle will regret it later."
"...Oh, yes, yes, yes, I'm leaving."
Xiao Qinglin's panicked look once again made Xiao Feng roll his eyes.
When we returned to the county, it was still dark, and we agreed on a departure time tomorrow, so Xiao Qinglin took the car back to pick up the people.
Li Hui hung up the courtyard door, took inventory again of what he was going to take away tomorrow, and stood on the courtyard wall to tell Mr. Du that they were about to return to the village tomorrow.
"...If you feel bored staying here, go to Wanghe Village with Pingren for two days. My house has many houses, which is enough for you."
"Okay, okay, let's wait until Pingren is sure."
Having cultivated so many talented people, schools in every village and town are in need of tutors.
Du Pingren's ideal school is to stay in Pingyang County, stay at home, and take care of his grandfather. He is self-aware and has passed the college examination. Forget it about the provincial examination, we will wait and see.
As for the Li clan science in Wanghe Village, because Li Fang was the master in the early days, the clan science was in a shambles. Now the whole village knows that Li Hui has succeeded, so they are waiting for him to come back to take over the clan science and take charge of the overall situation.
Who would have thought that the mayor would bring someone to the village that day, and he would bring a scholar from the clan.
This caught Jiang Jianye and Li Qingchun off guard.
"...Okay, you two should hurry up and make arrangements. The master's family is not here, so you have to clear out the house over there at the clan school.
Jiang Lizheng, you have always understood the general situation and the overall situation, so you don’t need to tell me what to do. In a few days, spring plowing will begin, and if you want to start a famine, remember to send more people to take a closer look to prevent trouble."
I wanted to chat more with the new wife, but I didn’t expect that she turned around and left without saving any face.
The mayor didn't say anything, but looked at Jiang Jianye and continued:
"The school in your village has been renamed, and the plaque will be hung on the first day of next month. From now on, everything in this school will have nothing to do with the Li family. Every month, you go to the town to report the accounts to the mountain chief. It is you and the master who go there, and you cannot go to the town.
Stay the night, remember?"
"Okay, okay." Jiang Jianye nodded hurriedly.
This was something about Li Xiang that scared the mayor, so he specifically explained it.
Li Qingchun breathed a long sigh of relief, feeling relieved.
After seeing off the two mayors, Jiang Jianye patted him on the shoulder and said:
"Okay, if clan studies don't depend on your clan, it will make it easier for you."
Li Qingchun shook his head regretfully and said:
"I knew it would be difficult to be the leader of the clan, so I couldn't do anything at the beginning. Uncle, do you think it would be better for Third Uncle and the others to do it?"
"It's not going to get better." Jiang Jianye pouted, "Have you forgotten the account books we looked at that day? Whoever touches it will get upset. Fortunately, you are young. If it were Li Laosan, he would probably be lying on the kang right now."

He gets angry when he talks about this. Li Qingnian is really "filial" and blames everything on that dead man Li Fang. There is no proof and no evidence, so naturally those bad debts will be settled.
"By the way, remember to tell Nianzi that they should move out quickly. The new master has no place to live, so he has to live in the backyard of the school."
Seeing Li Qingchun's face looking ashen, he waved after thinking about it and said:
"That's all, I'll go and talk. You go... I guess that kid is guilty of something stupid."
Li Qingchun turned from cloudy to sunny in an instant, bowed deeply and said:
"Thank you, Uncle Jiang. Thank you very much."
"Okay, let's go back quickly. It will be warm in the next two days, and it's time for our village to start farming. I guess... everyone in the county has already started farming."
Shushan Town is separated by the "Laoye Ridge" mountain range, which is completely different from Pingyang County.
Every year it gets warmer there first, and then you have to wait ten days and a half for the turn here. As for the northern part, it's even worse. It still snows in March, and you have to wait until mid-April before you can farm.

This year, a scholar finally appeared in the village. I don’t know when that boy Li Hui will come back, but don’t just stay in the county.
"A sneeze—A sneeze—A sneeze—"
Li Hui sneezed three times in a row. Xiao Qinglin, who was sitting outside the car with him, saw this and hurriedly urged:
"Brother, go inside and warm yourself up. It's really cold after passing Laoye Ridge, and I feel uncomfortable."
But I haven’t been here for more than ten days, why is the temperature difference so big?
Li Hui rubbed his nose, shook his head indifferently, and said:
"You are so fragile. The cold wind was a bit pungent just now, so you sneeze. When are you going to go up the mountain to talk about the list?"
"We will finish work tomorrow and decide quickly." Xiao Qinglin replied calmly.
It’s unclear when exactly the conscription will take place, but the forestry farm must not hold back the imperial court and must quickly prepare people.
The carriage "squeaked...squeaked..." and continued northward. Near noon, it finally arrived at the head of Wanghe Village.
As soon as the villagers under the willow tree saw Li Hui, they "hoo!" and gathered around him, asking questions and asking questions.
If it weren’t for Xiao Qinglin’s unwilling smacking of tongues and urging at the end, everyone still wouldn’t let Li Hui go.
Bai Rui drove away quickly, just as Zhao's wife Wang came out to pour water.
When I saw my cousin’s family coming back, I happily came forward and said:
"Oh brother, sister-in-law, you are back. Mom and the others came over yesterday. I want to ask you why you are coming back."
As he spoke, he reached out to help pick up the children.
Yu Yingjie, who was in the yard, heard the words and came out. He screamed, "Brother—brother—" and walked up to Li Huai.
There is only half a year difference between them, but Li Huai is obviously a head taller than him.
After such a fuss for so long, Cheng Xue found that Mrs. Xu Geng next door did not come out. Logically speaking, it was impossible for her to not come out because of her personality. Little did she know that Mrs. Xu Geng was confronting her wife and was very angry.
"Get out of the way quickly. Huizi's family is back. I have to go and see how it's going."
"Look at it, what a busy day it is. Let me tell you, you can take back the decision to separate the family after dinner. I don't agree."
When it came to "splitting the family", Mr. Geng was no longer in a hurry to join in the fun. He pinched his waist with his hands angrily and said:
"I don't care whether you agree or not. If you don't agree, I will start a gang on my own. If you go with those two stupid sons, I won't serve you!"
"Hey~ What are you talking about? Do you want to make peace with me?"
"You can do whatever you want!" Geng gave him a hard look without compromise.
She can't even look down on the two lazy daughters-in-law now. They must separate. Immediately, immediately...
