Spoiling my mistress and swallowing my dowry? After my rebirth, I changed my marriage to a powerful
Chapter 419 There is not a single good person in the village
Xu Li sat up suddenly, his heart pounding, breathing heavily, and a fine layer of sweat on his forehead.
Mu came over immediately and asked, "General, would you like some water?"
Xu Li didn't answer. He looked out the window and saw that it was already pitch black. He asked, "How long have I slept?"
Bo Mu said: "Three hours."
Xu Li sat up and didn't speak for a long time.
Mu asked, "General, would you like some water?"
Xu Li didn't even ask for water, he just said, "You go out first, I'll lie down for a while."
When Xu Li went out at dusk, he felt flustered.
He remembered the scene in the dream very clearly. Even the pain in his head and body was so real that it felt like he had experienced it himself.
At this moment, the Wei family is completely dead, Emperor Xiao is also dead, but the Xie family is fine, and they are also royal relatives.
Not only was Miss Xie not put into the jade box, she was also the founding empress of Yulong.
But what are dreams about?
What do you want to tell him?
People from Xujiacun, are their characters questionable?
He couldn't figure it out, so he sat up again.
I sat up and lay down like this three or four times. The bed was not a good one and it creaked very loudly.
Chang Ming heard it and knocked on the door gently: "General, are you awake?"
Xu Li knew that it was because of his constant tossing and turning that he disturbed Changming and Bomu.
The situation in the dream was too unbelievable, and telling it out loud would be a blasphemy to Your Majesty.
To have such a dream is a heinous crime.
Can't tell anyone.
"Changming, come in." he called.
Changming came in, lit a candle, and said, "General, would you like some water?"
Xu Li nodded, and Chang Ming poured out half a bowl of hot water from the hanging kettle and said, "The general drank alcohol, so he needs to drink water when he wakes up."
Xu Li drank water with a frown on his face.
Although it was a "chaotic dream", he didn't have it early or late, but he had it on the first day he returned to his hometown. It must be some kind of warning.
He drank the water and asked Changming: "What do you think of the people in Xujia Village?"
Chang Ming saw that he looked troubled and depressed, so he asked, "How was your life in the village?"
"No! Because I'm fat, I often go hungry, get cheated on and beaten."
"Then how did the general go to Xie's house?"
"My brother and sister-in-law sent me to the palace to be a eunuch... Due to some reasons, I was almost thrown into the well, but was saved by Lord Xie Yu and brought back to the Xie Mansion."
"Any family with a little bit of a living would not send their children to the palace to be rootless. General, you should be more tactful and not be too open with anyone."
Xu Li nodded and said, yes, we can’t be unreserved.
He was carrying out the mission of Emperor An and inspecting the customs of the people on behalf of the emperor. His Majesty said that a country cannot prosper if it is closed to the outside world. He was inspecting his hometown on behalf of His Majesty to see if it could become a pilot for reform.
It's not just a return home in glory.
If Xujia Village had no moral integrity, Wenchang County would not be able to be the "open pilot".
In his dream, he gave all his silver to his brother and sister-in-law, thinking that if he gave them enough, they would be nicer to him and protect the ashes of the master of the Xie family.
However, after giving everything, his brother, sister-in-law, and nephew killed him without hesitation!
Chang Ming had followed him all day today, so he had seen and heard a lot of things, so he suggested, "Since we are going to compile a family tree, the general has two brothers, so why not find them and put them on the family tree together. What do you think?"
"Will it be too late?"
"General, I have the audacity to ask: Master Xu (Xu Tiezhu) sold you into the palace to be a eunuch. Is it possible that your other two brothers were also sold?"
Xu Li shook his head: "Not likely, those two brothers are smarter and older than me."
"Then you can be sold as a servant to a rich family, or you can work in illegal kilns and mines."
Chang Ming said, "Today, when Master Xu mentioned your two brothers, the head of the village and Master Xu looked a little uncomfortable, so I was very worried."
Xu Li immediately became alert. He certainly didn’t dream about his second and third brothers. Was it possible that they were already dead by then?
That night, Xu Li did not have dinner with Xu Tiezhu's family on the grounds that he was drunk.
Xu Tiezhu's family has become the focus of the entire village.
There are countless excuses to curry favor with Xu Tiezhu.
And this was the first time Xu Tiezhu was invited by Mr. Xu Erye.
All the important people in the clan were there. Xu Tiezhu tucked in his cotton jacket and called out "Second Grandfather" with a smile.
Master Xu looked at him with disdain and said condescendingly, "Sit down!"
After Xu Tiezhu sat down, Mr. Xu and several other elders of the family said that they wanted to compile a family tree, repair the ancestral hall, build roads, and also build a family school.
Xu Tiezhu was overwhelmed by this and asked, "Second Grandfather, how much does this cost?"
Master Xu said, "Xiao Pang paid for it, but it's not yours. Don't you want us to stand out with this? Look at the villages around us. Which village is not better than ours?"
Xu Tiezhu listened with gritted teeth. Mr. Xu said that all this would cost several thousand taels of silver.
He immediately jumped up and said, "Second Grandfather, you are asking for too much. I was so shameless today that I asked him for ten strings of money."
"You are short-sighted!" said Master Xu. "This is a big deal, and you are only interested in the ten strings of cash? Your vision is only as broad as your vision for money."
Xu Tiezhu came out, accompanied by the village head. He was flattered but also angry, and returned home in a daze.
Liu Ermei and Xu Dalang looked at the soldiers guarding the door of the west room and did not dare to disturb them.
Xu Tiezhu came back and talked about Murakami's plan, and he was very angry.
Xu Dalang said, "My fourth uncle's money belongs to our family. What does it have to do with them? Later, our whole family will follow my fourth uncle and leave Xujia Village and go to the capital."
Yes, Liu Ermei and Xu Tiezhu were both excited. Their brother was capable and was also someone close to the emperor. The key point was that he was a eunuch and he definitely had no children. His money would belong to his family in the future!
I used to be afraid of Mr. Xu, but now I’m afraid of the ball.
Bo Mu saw all the plans and movements here, and when dawn came, he told Xu Li.
Xu Li sneered, "Eunuch? Do you want to see who is older?"
I was used to it in the military camp and would get up early at the hour of Mao to practice martial arts.
When Xu Tiezhu's family got up, Xu Li, Changming and Bomu had already run around the village more than ten laps.
In the farmland, they met an old man carrying a urine pot and pouring the manure accumulated at night on the seedlings.
Chang Ming smiled and asked, "Uncle, how long have Xu Erlei and Xu Sanduo been away from Xujia Village?"
When asked this question, the old man blurted out, "It's been a long time! Tiezhu and his wife were not honest. When Xiaopang left, Erlei learned that Xiaopang was taken away, so he sold himself to find Xiaopang. However, the money from selling himself was taken by the boss as soon as he got it, and Dalei was taken away by the people from the pawnbroker."
"Where's Xu Sanduo?"
"I heard that Sanduo went to dig coal. The boss sold it to the black coal mine for ten taels of silver. How can he make a living as a miner? I'm afraid he's already dead."
There are many people in this village who look down on Xu Tiezhu. His parents are dead and his three brothers were all sold out. He is really not a human being!
The old man didn't have good intentions. He just thought that Xu Li and Xu Tiezhu had fallen out and they were all going to die in poverty, so why should Xu Tiezhu continue to suck blood to get rich?
Changming quietly asked a few more people and even went to the next village to inquire. The good thing about the countryside is that everyone knows all the gossip in the next village. What everyone said was basically the same as what the old man said.
After hearing this, Changming immediately went back and told Xu Li.
When Xu Li heard that his two brothers had been sold out by the eldest brother, he was so angry that his eyes turned red.
In the morning, Liu Ermei cooked a pot of thin porridge and gave each person a bowl. The porridge was so thin that it illuminated their shadows.
She said apologetically: "Uncle, our family is poor and we really can't afford to eat. Please don't despise me."
Xu Li stood up and said, "Since the family can't make ends meet, then we won't add to the burden. Lord Ying, please give me a small courtyard for my visit, and we'll live there."
Xu Tiezhu and Liu Ermei were dumbfounded. If they couldn't make ends meet, shouldn't they just take out the money? Why did they just leave?
