Rebirth in Another World

Taotao is Li Shang's own son, Li Sheng's own grandson, whether it is an official in the town or county who wants to climb up, or a wealthy family who wants to develop his career in the officialdom, he naturally doesn't want to miss this opportunity, and the gift is also first-class One is precious, and each item is worth at least 800 taels, and the [-] to [-] tables in the two courtyards are basically full.

It was already evening when the cups were empty and the people were gone. Everyone was tired after a long day of work, so they greeted each other and went back to their homes. Only Liu Yun was reluctant to part with her grandson, and insisted on being close to Tao Tao for a while. Reluctantly go back.

Bai Ran coaxed him to sleep, sorted out the gifts he had received, and piled up a box full of them. Looking at these extravagant items, he couldn't help but feel emotional, "No wonder everyone in the world loves to be an official. There are nearly 2000 taels of gifts, and these things Even if it was sold at a low price, it would cost ten thousand taels, and I thought I was quite successful in doing business, but compared with these things, the money I earned for such a long time is not even a fraction, which is ironic enough."

Li Shang sighed, and hugged Bai Ran, "The water in the officialdom is too muddy, the things are good, but there will be more troubles in the future, Xiao Ran, put the gifts in the box together, lock it and give it to my parents tomorrow." Go and let them take it away."

"It's already ready." Bai Ran smiled faintly, stuffed the silver ticket and the gift slip into the box, then locked the lock, and glanced at Li Shang who was worried, "Don't think too much, I still understand those principles. Okay, but you have to have life flowers, right?"

"Daughter-in-law, being able to marry you is the luckiest thing in my life. It's worth being a fool." This is probably the most disgusting thing Li Shang has said in his life. Few people have seen it so much. He was not interested in money. He was originally afraid that Bai Ran would blame him and cause a rift between the husband and wife, but now it seems that he was thinking too much. However, with the departure of parents, another matter has to be put on the agenda .

Seeing the change in Li Shang's expression, Bai Ran asked, "What's wrong?"

Li Shang hesitated and said: "It's okay...how about you take Taotao and parents back to the capital together."

Bai Ran gently slid his fingertips across Li Shang's cheek, feeling the temperature on the other's skin, "It's good, I don't bother to move, and the business of the workshop is trivial, and I can't do without people for the purchase and delivery, so I don't worry. "

Li Shang: "But..."

Bai Ran said: "Aren't you just going back to take care of those chores? It's not life and death. It will be a few years at the latest. I know you are worried about me, but my skills are there, even Liu Chang and the others can't think about it." I can get a bargain here, not to mention that I know how to perform immortal arts."

Li Shang spoiled and said: "Okay, I know you are amazing, I'm tired after a busy day today, let's rest." He took off the clothes of the two of them, got into bed, and fell asleep after a while.

After the full moon wine, the workers who built the house were also recruited, so Li Sheng picked a day to move the soil and started work.

There is a special person responsible for building the house, managing workers, purchasing materials, etc., and Bai Ran is only responsible for three meals a day.

When everything was on the right track, Li Sheng and Liu Yun proposed to return to Beijing.

Three days later in the morning, Bai Ran's family of three stood at the entrance of the village to say goodbye to Li Sheng and Liu Yunren.

There were two carriages when they came, but there were three carriages when they returned. The last carriage was driven by Liu Chang himself. In addition to the special products sent by the villagers, there was also a box of gifts and money received during the full moon.

Taotao was still asleep in Bairan's arms, occasionally smacking her small mouth, Liu Yun stared at it closely, feeling 1 reluctance in her heart, "Why don't I let the two girls stay for you to take care of Taotao, you guys The two are usually busy, so it's inevitable that they won't be able to take care of them."

Bai Ran refused: "No need, most of the work in the workshop is done by workers, at least a few delicate tasks are for me to take care of, it doesn't matter."

Liu Yun didn't bother with this issue either, "It's inevitable that a young couple will have bumps in their lives, especially Bo En's temper is just like his father's, as stubborn as a donkey, if he dares to bully you, don't be stubborn, write us a letter later, let us know His father beat him to vent his anger on you."

Bai Ran smiled, and before he could speak, Li Shang, who was talking to Li Sheng over there, came over and said, "Mother, it's too late for me to love him and spoil him, so I don't want to bully him."

"You are shameless, you can say anything." Liu Yun gave Li Shang a reproachful look, then turned to look at Li Yi who was not far away, "Xiao Yi, come here and say goodbye to your elder brother and elder brother-in-law."

The last time Li Yi came to Taoxi Village secretly, Li Sheng had spoken here and had to go back with him. Although he was very reluctant, he had to listen to his father's words, but Chen Zhu hadn't come yet.

Seeing that he didn't move, Li Sheng went up and patted him on the back of the head, "You brat didn't hear that."

"Big Brother...Big Brother, take care." Li Yi rubbed his head that was hurting from the beating, and although he felt awkward all over when he said the word 'Big Brother', he was no longer as disgusted as he was at the beginning. To be honest, he still I like this big brother-in-law a little bit.

As for the specific amount of this tiny bit, it is subject to discussion.

Li Shang took out a bulging cloth bag and handed it to Li Yi, "The pillar won't come through, he asked me to hand it over to you, he said he couldn't help it, he wrote a letter and put it in it, you look."

Chen Zhu paid homage to a good master, who not only taught him martial arts, but also taught him how to use soldiers. It is absolutely impossible to read military books without knowing how to read, so Li Shang, who was to be taught, did not miss anything, and writing a letter was not a big deal.

Li Yi also understands that once the relationship between the two of them is exposed, they will only be separated. If they go back to his mother, he will have to marry him, so he silently put the cloth bag close to him, "Tell that idiot, be smart at ordinary times, Don’t be fooled by what other people say all day long, and you don’t even know when you’re being bullied.”

Li Shang nodded, "Okay."

Time is short, no matter how reluctant it is, it's time to go, Li Sheng patted Liu Yun and Li Yi on the shoulders, "Let's go, or it will be too late, I will hand over the booklet when I go back this time, and come here as soon as the house is built here , our family will not be separated from now on."

Liu Yun and Li Yi looked back three times at each step, reluctantly got into the carriage, and then looked out the window.

"Go back, it's time to feed Taotao." Li Sheng waved his hand, and got into the carriage himself, the driver raised his whip, and the carriage moved.

Although we will meet again in the future, the short parting is still a bit sad. Bai Ran and Li Shang watched quietly, and did not go back until they could no longer see the shadow of the car.

Li Shang comforted: "See you soon."

Bai Ran nodded, and changed the position of his hands to make Tao Tao sleep more comfortably.

There were fewer people, and the house seemed to be deserted immediately, which made people a little uncomfortable for a while, but fortunately, the autumn harvest was coming, and they got busy again after staying for a few days.

This year, his family has planted three acres of cabbage, one acres of mustard greens, and one acres of wheat on the five acres of land in his family. Because the seeds are all processed by Bairan with supernatural powers, the yield is more than twice that of other families.

After the autumn harvest, Bai Ran put up an advertisement in front of his house, buying cabbage, garlic, pepper and mustard lumps at the market price, and received as much as he could.

As soon as the news spread, people kept coming to the door. After all, it was a market price and there was no need to sell it. Few people were willing to miss such a good thing.

Bai Ran temporarily found some people to accumulate all the cabbage into sauerkraut, mustard greens and other pickled vegetables were also made into pickles, and they were going to be sold together with other cooked foods after a month.

After the dishes were off the altar, Li Shang was free for the time being. Apart from occasionally going to the construction site in the back mountain to supervise the work, he accompanied Bai Ran to teach the children, and occasionally fought with Chen Zhu.

Bai Ran asked the three children to write big characters in the room, while shaking the rocking bed to coax Tao Tao, he looked out the window at Chen Zhu who was practicing martial arts, "Zhu Zi has made great progress recently."

Since Li Yi left, Chen Zhu has worked harder in martial arts. He really got up earlier than a chicken and went to bed later than a dog. Not to mention the double training, he also made the kung fu taught by Li Shang look good, according to Bai Ran Come on, Chen Zhu is almost done now, he just lacks experience.

Li Shang also thought the same way, "Master sent me a message a few days ago that the neighboring countries have been making small moves recently, and the border has begun to be uneasy. Now this peaceful and prosperous world may not be able to last."

Bai Ran's hand gripping the shaker subconsciously tightened, even though he wanted to ask, but he couldn't say a word, so he could only silently nod his head.

Neither of them were talking, and the atmosphere became dull for a while, with only the occasional communication between the three children. After a while, Chen Zhu was heard shouting: "Master and mother, there are people at the door."

Hearing the sound, Bai Ran got up and went out to take a look. When he saw a ragged beggar entering the yard, he understood in his heart. He took out a small string of copper coins and stuffed it in. A beggar like this can come here almost every few days. Heartbroken, but helpless.

Although the weather this year is good, many fertile fields have been abandoned due to the raging plague in spring, so the price of food is [-]% higher than last year. The situation in Taoxi Village is not serious because the impact is the least, but other villages are selling their fields because of lack of food. The phenomenon of selling land and even selling children, especially in Dongwazi.

I thought this should be the most serious, but I didn't expect that the tax that should have been reduced or exempted was not only restored, but even increased.

Sending the beggar away, just when Ruan Lin came to pick up the goods, Bai Ran dragged him aside and said, "Find some way to store more rice noodles and medicinal materials, and store them separately. The world may not be peaceful. Let's be close to the border, just in case." one."

He hated himself for saying this, but all the news he got was not good. If there was a real fight, food prices would skyrocket. For the sake of those behind him, he had to make plans in advance.

Ruan Lin glanced at him suspiciously. Although he didn't know the reason, but because the matter between him and Zou Dong was thanks to Bai Ran, so as long as Bai Ran ordered him, he would definitely do it with all his heart, and this matter was naturally no exception, "Okay , I'll do it now."

Bai Ran didn't say anything, turned around and went back to the house. Ruan Lin had been active in the county town for a long time, and had a wider road than him.

Three days later, Liu Ji's proprietress, Li Shang's cousin, came over and sent a letter written by Li Sheng.

Li Shang opened his eyes, his expression changed, and he handed it to Bai Ran.

Bai Ran lowered his head and read it, as if he was afraid of leaking some news for the messenger to see. There were very few words on the paper, only eight words: "The war will start, return to the border quickly."
