Chapter 600： The Li family will soon become a hot cake!

Chapter 600 The Li family will soon become a hotpot!

Li Laoer also said: "It is estimated that these people will come to me tomorrow to ask about the results. Tonight, the Marquis will make a list of the supplies needed by the army and leave the rest to me."

"Okay," Mr. Marquis glanced at Li Laosi, who was eating with his daughter and was full of slander, and said: "The children of each family have joined the Northern Expeditionary Army. I am going to let the fourth son lead the training. From now on, I will follow the arrangements of the fourth son. "

Li Laosi didn't think too much and agreed casually, "Okay, we will stay at the dock camp for half a year. They are born with mud, so I will plaster them on the wall!"

After saying that, he picked up the little fox and threw it aside.

The little fox is also a greedy foodie. He actually used his front paws to pick up the sweet potatoes and almost burned his white fur...

Li Laoer and Mr. Wen were filled with emotion.

Li Laosi didn't expect it, but they understood it immediately.

Master Hou is trying to build momentum for the Li family, or to put up another layer of armor for the Li family...

Let me ask you, the civil, military and powerful people in the Manchu Dynasty all have their children and grandchildren working under Li Laosi to earn a living.

Whether it’s following training, guarding the camp, or going out to kill the enemy, Li Laosi needs to take care of each one of them!

Even if you don’t go out of your way to give gifts to the Li family, you will definitely not dare to offend them easily!

It can be said that from now on, the Li family will be the meat and potatoes of Xindu.

Li Laoer stood up to salute the Marquis, but the Marquis waved his hand to stop him. He pulled him to sit down again and said in a low voice: "It's just a casual thing. You don't have to be polite to my family."

Mr. Wen joked: "Next time such a convenient thing happens, Mr. Hou will arrange one for me."

"No!" The Marquis shook his head with a smile, "You have already offended most of the people in the court with your errand. It's good that they didn't catch you putting a sack on you."

Everyone burst out laughing, which made Mr. Wen grimace, "I'm suddenly worried about my son. It seems I'd better avoid a few troubles in the future!"

Just when they were joking, Zheng Feng and Zheng He brought the trays over.

Zheng Feng smiled and said, "The old lady said, please invite all the masters to have dinner here, and they can eat comfortably next door."

"Are we being disliked?" Li Laoer said with a smile: "Hurry up and set the table, just in time to heat two pots of wine. If you drink more tonight, no one will nag you."

Everyone helped, and soon the food was placed under the eaves, two lanterns were lit above the head, and the meal was served.

The good news is that sitting on the left is the Marquis, and on the right is the father. There is also a little fox in his arms, eating happily.

She didn’t need to pick up the food at all, the bowl was always full, and the slight sense of danger of falling out of favor had long since disappeared without a trace!

The night wind was a bit cool, and the lanterns were swaying, and the light and shadows were swaying.

Everybody was drinking, eating, laughing and gossiping, and it was extremely comfortable.

The night was dark, and the Wen family's yard was tidied up. Mr. Wen supported his wife and returned home in a warm and affectionate manner.

Li Laosi carried his daughter on his back and took his second brother, who was a little shaken, back to the next door.

Jiayin wanted to spend more time with her adoptive father, and she had some ideas about storing food.

There is no choice but to avoid suspicion.

She is now a grown-up girl and can no longer sleep with her adoptive father. She can only yawn and go back to her home.

On the second day, just as Li Laoer expected, Baiyuan Garden was packed to the brim again.

Everyone was thinking about it all night. When they heard that the Marquis had relented and could send only one son to the Northern Expedition, they were all so happy.

But there is only one legitimate son in the family who meets the requirements, and he still wants to hit the wall. "This can't be done, Mr. Li. We only have one legitimate son in our family. Even if we want to send our **** son away, we can't do it. If you think of a way, can you talk to the Marquis and exempt our family from the quota?" A middle-aged civil servant , I can’t wait to bow to Li Laoer.

Li Laoer quickly stopped him, asked everyone to sit down, and after thinking about it, he said: "Everyone, the imperial edict on conscription was issued by the emperor. Although the Marquis can ask the emperor to adjust it, it is impossible to take it back completely. After all, the emperor No jokes.

"Although I am not familiar with the military, I wonder if there are so many people in the military, they are like a big family. For example, if someone goes out to farm and do business, it is hard and dangerous, but there must be someone at home to cook. Ah, looking at the grain warehouse, right?

"How to allocate manpower specifically, the Marquis can definitely adjust it. At least half of them go out and half guard the house. But the first condition is that the granaries and warehouses must be full! You said that there is no need to guard these empty things, right? ?”

"Yes, that's the truth." Someone immediately turned red-eyed and responded loudly: "My unfilial son likes to eat, so it is best to stay in the camp as a gang leader, but I also know that it is difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without rice, so , my family is willing to donate a thousand dan of military rations!”

"And I, my family is willing to donate a thousand pieces of coarse cloth. My son will take good care of it and prevent it from being eaten by insects." Another person said closely.

This is like opening a floodgate and slamming down the door, completely igniting everyone's "patriotic enthusiasm."

Grain, cloth, medicinal materials, cotton, etc., were donated in countless ways in the blink of an eye.

Li Laoer felt happy in his heart, but pretended to be embarrassed on his face, and said to everyone: "I will lead the Northern Expedition Army to thank you for your support. I will write down the list in a while, and then I will find an opportunity to show it to Lord Marquis. , the Marquis can enter the palace as soon as possible to intercede with the emperor.

"But everyone should deliver the things earlier. After all, the final distribution list has been decided, and it will not be easy to change it. I am an outsider, and I am thick-skinned. I can persuade the Marquis once, but it is not easy to do it a second time. ”

“Don’t worry, uncle, I can’t thank you enough this time.”

“Yes, uncle, don’t worry, my food will be delivered tomorrow.”

Everyone responded one after another, and after reporting the names of their children and grandchildren and registering their supplies, they hurried home.

After all, the parents at home are still taking medicine for their anger, and the children and grandchildren are even more frightened and trembling...

Although you still have to go to the military camp, as long as you stay at the dock and don't go out to fight, your life will be saved.

As for whether it is hard in the army, I can always take care of you when we are so close in the future.

Going home in the evening, Li Laoer proudly showed the brochure to Mr. Hou.

The Marquis is also happy. The money, food and materials are enough to support the Northern Expedition for at least a year.

At this time next year, there will be a bumper harvest of corn and potatoes again, so you won’t have to work so hard to get food!

This night, most people in Xindu were able to sleep well.

But the Jiangning Marquis Mansion was still uneasy. The second master and second wife were very dissatisfied when they heard that they would donate so much money and food to the Northern Expeditionary Army, just to give their nephew a job as a cook.

After all, the family has not been separated yet, and the things taken out are also shared by the second wife.

Mrs. Shizi was even more dissatisfied. How could she make a fire to cook for her son who she had raised in her heart?

That is the Queen’s biological brother and the legitimate son of the eldest son of the Marquis Mansion!

The old Marquis heard his two sons quarreling, and his illness became more serious. Half of the medicinal soup he was given was spilled.

The Crown Prince's wife was so cruel that on the second day when the civil and military officials were about to go to court, she actually had the old marquis carrying such a crooked mouth and squinting eyes blocked directly in front of the palace gate.

This time, the emperor and the queen could not escape at any cost.

After all, filial piety is our top priority, and no one can watch the old marquis die outside the palace gate like this...

Today I went to the hospital to get potions, and I just wrote two chapters of updates. Thank you for your understanding, friends. I will continue to take the medicine tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, and schedule the MRI to Monday. As soon as the back pain is a little better, I will resume the third update immediately, group hugs! mwah!
