Chapter 55, New Life
On the twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, under the enthusiastic anticipation of Li Wuya and Li Qilang, Li Sanlang finally brought Li Changsen, Jin Yue'e, and Li Erya to Rongcheng.
At this time, Rongcheng is very lively, the streets are decorated with lights and festoons, and the joy of Chinese New Year is everywhere.
Looking at the bustling Rongcheng, Jin Yue'e, Li Sanlang, and Li Erya all had good expectations for the future life in their eyes. Only Li Changsen, thinking about the Jiang family, felt a little out of sorts.
"Sanlang, where did we buy our house?"
Although it is the first time to come to Rongcheng, and although she has never bought a house before, Jin Yue'e still knows that the further you go to the center of the city, the more expensive the house price is.
Li Sanlang smiled and said: "Mother, our house is next to the government school, and we will be there by walking two streets."
Jin Yue'e looked a little worried: "The houses in this area are not cheap, right? Although we got a hundred taels of silver from the governor, we still have to save some money. Living in the city costs a lot, so we shouldn't be too extravagant."
Hearing this, the smile on Li Sanlang's face became a bit forced.
The one hundred taels given by the governor had already been spent, and more than three hundred taels of silver were used to buy the house, and Wu Ya and Qilang added more than two hundred taels into it.
Li Sanlang was also a little worried. Although he knew that his younger siblings were not short of money, he was an older brother, so he couldn't reach out to ask his younger siblings for money in the future.
Yes, after the new year, he has to find a job as soon as possible.
Not long after, the new home arrived.
Before getting close, Li Sanlang and others saw Li Wuya and Li Qilang standing in front of the new house pasting couplets.
"Five Ah, Seven Lang!"
Li Sanlang yelled, Li Wuya and Li Qilang turned their heads and saw his family coming, they ran over regardless of the couplets being pasted up.
"Father, mother, second sister, you're here!"
Li Changsen was injured. Li Sanlang rented a bullock cart. After entering the city, Jin Yuee and Li Erya got out of the cart. Only Li Changsen was still lying on the cart covered with a bedding.
Li Wuya stepped forward to help Jin Yuee and Li Erya help Li Changsen out of the car, while Li Sanlang and Li Qilang went to move the car to salute.
Looking at the majestic high-walled compound, Jin Yuee's face was full of joy and disbelief: "This is our home?"
Li Wuya nodded with a smile: "Yes, mother, let's go in quickly, how about going in and seeing the new home that Qilang and I arranged?"
After finishing speaking, he and Li Erya helped Li Changsen into the door together.
"This house is too"
After entering the door, Jin Yue'e looked left and right, looking like she couldn't see it: "This house is too good. I'm afraid the one hundred taels of silver that the governor gave you have already been spent by you, right?"
Li Changsen glanced at Li Wuya: "One hundred taels of silver can't buy Erjinyuan, where did you get the silver?"
To Li Sanlang, Li Wuya dared to tell the truth, but to Li Changsen and Jin Yuee, Li Wuya didn't want to tell the truth.
One, she doesn’t know their acceptance level. Parents always think too much, worrying about this and that, afraid they will worry;
Secondly, in her opinion, taking down the Huyan family stronghold and the Tianluomen lair is nothing more than a trivial matter, just like a child's head on the head, and there is no need to let the family know.
Therefore, Li Wuya resolutely dumped the blame on Li Sanlang who had just entered the door with a salute: "It's brother, he rescued a caravan before, and the people in the caravan gave him one thousand taels of silver directly in order to thank him. "
The pot came from the sky Li Sanlang: "."
Jin Yuee's eyes widened: "One thousand taels of silver! How could you give so much?"
Li Sanlang coughed lightly: "That. The caravan encountered a pack of wolves and was almost wiped out. I saved them, so they gave so much." After speaking, he gave Li Wuya a deadly look.
Li Changsen looked at his eldest son and youngest daughter, but said nothing.
After visiting the house, Jin Yuee has fallen in love with this new home. Except that the west wing is a bit old, everything else is very satisfied.
"Sister, this is our room, how is it, I decorated it well?"
Li Erya looked carefully at the East Wing, and nodded in satisfaction. The things in the room are all brand new, unlike the West Wing, which is full of used old things.
"Our family belongs to you and you will enjoy it."
"Didn't I want everyone to live more comfortably?"
"It's comfortable, but where does the money come from?" Seeing that Li Wuya opened her mouth and was about to answer, Li Erya snorted, "Don't lie to me with the words that fooled my parents, if brother really saved some caravan, Can he not talk when he gets home?"
Li Wuya knew that she couldn't hide it from Li Erya, and didn't want to hide it from her, so she told her everything she did with Li Qilang in Rongcheng.
Watching the younger sister casually talking about how she and the younger brother took over the stronghold and lair, Li Erya's eyelids couldn't help but twitch.
"Second Sister, two days ago, Qilang and I took in a younger brother who is a dentist. We have a few caravans in our hands, which are barely usable. We are not blind in Rongcheng."
Li Erya stretched out her hand to realize her head, and didn't want to talk anymore.
She finally understood brother's complicated and hesitant mood!
"sister!"
Seeing that Li Erya was distracted, Li Wuya stretched out her hand and shook it in front of her: "Sister, don't worry, I won't mess around. I have already thought about it. In the future, we will study at home to learn how to read and learn female celebrities, and we will also learn to read." People from the city, be a gentle and quiet boudoir lady."
Li Erya looked at her suspiciously: "You really think so?"
Li Wuya nodded hurriedly, and even raised her hand to make an oath: "It's absolutely true, it can't be truer."
Li Erya reluctantly believed her.
With the arrival of the family, the yard of the Li family became lively.
Jin Yuee led Li Erya and Li Wuya to work in the kitchen. Li Changsen sat on the sill and watched Li Sanlang and Li Qilang arrange the dishes. The whole family had smiles from the inside out.
During the Chinese New Year, while going out to play, Li Wuya and Li Qilang took Li Sanlang and Li Erya to Jiubian Yahang.
"Brother, sister, the owner of the dental shop is our younger brother."
"What did you bring us here for?"
"I'll take you here to find out the way. In the future, we will discuss life in Rongcheng, and it will definitely be useful when we can get him. Come again, he is a dental practitioner. He is very smooth. I want to find out more about him."
"How to find out?"
"Follow him! Just during the Chinese New Year, every household is visiting relatives and friends. We can't know nothing about him. We have to see what kind of relationship he has in Rongcheng."
"Why!"
Li Wuya sighed: "If we have reliable people in our hands, we don't need to track them down."
Li Sanlang lived in the military camp for a few months and saw the personal guards of some important people. He said: "It's reliable, and it needs to be used. I'm afraid it's only the children and followers raised by the big families."
Speaking of a rich family, Li Wuya couldn't help but ask: "Brother, do you know your father's background?"
Li Sanlang shook his head.
Li Wuya showed disappointment: "I thought you knew, even if you know a surname, so we can investigate secretly."
