Chapter 598： The fat sheep finally arrived

Chapter 598 The fat sheep finally comes.

This night, many people gathered together, all looking sad.

Someone said: "Did we guess wrong? The emperor is determined to let our children and grandchildren die?"

"I don't think so. It hasn't been long since we moved the capital here, and the emperor doesn't dare to cause too much turmoil in the new capital!" Others sighed, "There must be something wrong."

"I also feel that we are not looking in the right direction. What is missing in the middle?" A middle-aged man said: "It stands to reason that the emperor was angry at first because we withheld pensions, but now we are willing to donate money to the soldiers. It’s enough to send twice as much, the emperor shouldn’t hold on to it anymore!”

“Oh, that’s not right!” A fat man suddenly woke up and shouted: “The pension is for the Northern Expeditionary Army. Who has the final say about the Northern Expeditionary Army? Marquis Xinting!”

“Yes, we worshiped at the wrong temple!”

"The Marquis of Xinting does not like wealth and sex, nor is he greedy for power. He only wants to take back the country in the north. I heard that he loves soldiers as much as his sons. He must have been angry with us before, but now he is hindering us."

"It must be true. Your Majesty treats Marquis Xinting not just as a monarch but also as a cousin. It concerns the Northern Expedition. If the Marquis doesn't nod, the Emperor will definitely not let go!"

“Then let’s try another method?”

"It's definitely not possible to go directly to Marquis Xinting. We need to find an intermediary to make peace."

“How is Yushi Wen?”

“Or Liu Zhiheng?”

Finally, it was the middle-aged man who spoke, "I think it is best to find Uncle Zhongshan. Mr. Hou, Yushi Wen and Liu Zhiheng all met through Uncle Zhongshan."

"The Marquis is very different from the Li family. If Zhongshan Bo is willing to come forward, the Marquis will definitely show his favor."

“Then after the meeting tomorrow, let’s go to Baiyuan Garden to have tea?”

“Okay, together, together!”

Li Laoer didn't know that he was going to get rich soon. He slept at the relief office that night and got up the next day to go to court. He finally looked forward to the next court. He was about to leave in a hurry, but was stopped by more than a dozen courtiers.

“Hey, Uncle Li, I heard that two more peonies have arrived in Baiyuan Garden. I wonder if we are lucky enough to go and see them?”

Li Laoer felt like he was in the clear mind, but he pretended to be surprised on his face, and then he invited everyone to the Baiyuan Garden with a few polite words.

Actually, he has been waiting for these idiots for many days!

I would say that I am usually a smart person, but when it comes to the lives of my children and grandchildren, my brain becomes like a stone.

Conscription, conscription!

The focus is of course on the word "bing"!

And who is in charge of the army? It's the Marquis!

As a result, they did not ask the Marquis or negotiate terms with the Marquis, but just ran around like headless flies, which was of no use at all.

Soon, everyone arrived at Baiyuan Garden.

The four members of the Cao family were startled by the sudden rush of guests and hurriedly served them attentively.

Li Laoer quietly reminded Lao Cao to double the price of the potted flowers placed outside.

As expected, everyone was full of praise, and in the end, each person bought a pot without blinking an eye.

Li Laoer was so satisfied that he stopped talking about flower cultivation and led everyone to sit down to drink tea and chat.

Everyone had the same purpose, and they talked about conscription in a few sentences, and then everyone sighed.

“Uncle, I don’t know. We bought such beautiful flowers, and I’m afraid we won’t be able to enjoy them after we go back.”

"Yes, I have something on my mind. Not to mention admiring flowers, I don't feel good about eating or drinking, and I'm tossing and turning when I sleep."

Li Laoer said with a smile: "Indeed, my fourth brother has followed the Marquis and went on several expeditions. I am always on tenterhooks. Only when I see him come back will I be relieved."

Someone took the opportunity to say: "I heard that General Li Si was born with supernatural powers and was very brave. Even so, my uncle can't help but think about it. Then wouldn't it be even worse for us? My son is only eighteen years old and has never practiced martial arts. If he goes I'm afraid that if I don't get to the battlefield in three days, I'll send the white-haired man to the black-haired man!"

"Yes, my grandson just got married, and my grandson's daughter-in-law is pregnant. When she heard about the conscription, she cried so hard that she almost had a miscarriage." "My mother is the same. She takes medicine every day and can't wait to go to the battlefield for her child..."

Everyone was talking about it, and they all felt bitter when they talked about it.

Li Laoer listened carefully, sighing from time to time, showing sympathy.

Seeing this, everyone finally got to the point.

"Uncle, it's not that we don't want to contribute to the country, it's because we have difficulties at home and the children are too incompetent. Even if we go to war, they are a burden."

“That’s it, that’s it, can you please help us talk to the Marquis and see what needs the Marquis and the Northern Expedition Army have? We will definitely support them.”

Li Laoer pondered for a while and then said: "As you all know, Mr. Hou's temper... is very upright and will not change easily. I am not sure. I can only say that after I return, I will definitely say a few words to you."

“Oh, that’s great. Thank you so much, uncle.”

“Yes, if uncle can solve the big problem on our mind, we will definitely have a reward in the future.”

Everyone was happy to hear this and thanked him profusely.

After sitting for a while, everyone left with some anticipation.

Li Laoer also immediately returned to Broken Gold Beach.

The Marquis carried a basket and took his daughter up the mountain to pick mushrooms.

As a result, I didn't pick many mushrooms, but I hit a rabbit with stones.

The little fox was so happy that he surrounded the Marquis in front and behind him, chirping, hoping that the Marquis would hit another one.

But unlike before, there is no shortage of rabbit teething festivals at home.

Moreover, autumn has begun, the vegetation is deep, and there are too many insects and snakes. The Marquis is afraid of scaring his daughter, so he refuses to look for traces of rabbits.

The little fox was angry, so he jumped into the basket, guarded the dead rabbit, and lay down together, lazy and unwilling to walk.

The Marquis didn't care. He squatted down and carried the fat **** his back, and went down the mountain.

Jiayin took out a fruit from her bag and shared it with the Marquis happily. The angry little fox stared at it with eyes like black beans, full of accusations.

As soon as two people and one fox came down the mountain, they met Li Laoer.

Li Laoer couldn't help but smile and greet him: "Master Hou, the fat sheep bringing money has finally come to the door."

“Fat sheep! Where, where?” Jiayin joined in the fun and shouted with a smile, “I want to eat mutton skewers!”

Li Laoer hit his funny niece and said with a smile: "We have business, you go home first, I will discuss it with the Marquis."

Jiayin stuck out his tongue, jumped down to the ground, took the little fox with him, and dragged the basket back home.

The Marquis patted the dust on the hem of his clothes, picked a few blades of grass, and asked, "Someone can't hold on and is finally willing to bleed?"

"Yes, Lord Marquis." Li Laoer smiled proudly, "Today I killed them first and sold a dozen pots of flowers at a high price."

The Marquis nodded and responded: "Let's go to my study. Yesterday, I just made a list. I took this opportunity to prepare all the things that are lacking in the army."

“It’s best to stock up on more grain. These people all have a lot of land at home, and the autumn harvest is about to begin. Last year’s old grain must be sold!” Li Laoer suggested.

As they were talking, the two were about to enter the yard, but unexpectedly, three carriages turned down on the road far away...

 Dear babies, when I first started studying in the new year, Huahua was diagnosed with thoracic scoliosis and lumbar disc. I have been undergoing physical therapy and applying plasters. I have persisted until now, and the pain is getting worse and worse. Recently, the pressure has made it difficult to breathe, and I have been holding back my sleep. My child has finally gone to school, and I really can’t hold on anymore. I have to go to the hospital to take a X-ray tomorrow to see the specific situation. So I will write about 4000 tomorrow, and the update will be later. Let me tell you guys first, don’t be anxious. Don’t worry, Huahuakeng products are guaranteed to last for ten years! Health is so important, I hope you guys will pay more attention to it.
