Dressed As a Farm Boy, He Cheated on His Way Out of the Desert.

Chapter 381 Who are you taking advantage of?

But she had never seen the two of them, so she couldn't make a decision at the moment, so she said cautiously, "Old madam, can I tell you if I can meet the two masters? Miss Nannan is still young, and she is a girl. She will get married when she grows up. I need to find a good uncle to rely on..."

 Old Mrs. Li softened her expression when she heard that she was really thinking about her master.

"Okay, I'll ask my second brother to come forward and take you to see the two Mr. Sun. Our family doesn't care which house you want to stay at, or which house can take you in."

After that, she pointed to the two packages and said, "At the beginning, the collar Mrs. Sun gave me was said to be a pair with my daughter. I'm afraid I lost her one? If you take this back, it can be regarded as a gift." Think about it.

In addition, Mrs. Sun gave our family one hundred taels of silver, and our Li family now pays back ten times..."

Sister-in-law Li was afraid that the old lady would stop walking around again, so she quickly kowtowed again.

"Old madam, I don't want any money. Our madam has passed away. Please take pity on my orphaned girl and help her a little more."

Tao Hongying looked at the old lady and asked, "How do you want us to help?"

Sister-in-law Li thought about it for a long time and quickly responded, "With this money, can I ask the old lady to help me buy a small manor or a farm or something like that?

"At least there will be some production a year, and the slaves and ladies will not have to look at whoever they choose to live with. In the future, the ladies will be able to dowry when they get married."

“Also, during the festivals in the future, can the slave and the young lady come to kowtow to the old lady? Just ask the old lady for protection. I am really afraid that I will not be able to protect the young lady when she grows up..."

The old lady immediately shook her head, "No! If it's inconvenient for you to take away the money, you can leave it here temporarily and pick it up later. But it's not easy for our family to handle the purchase of land and property, so you can do it yourself.

“Besides, you don’t need to come to the house again during the holidays. Tomorrow I will ask my second son to take you to Sun’s house. This will be the last bit of kindness to Mrs. Sun in return. From now on, you can take care of yourself.”

Sister-in-law Li wanted to say something else, but Tao Hongying had already called Aunt He to take them back to the Ye family's wing.

Sister-in-law Li was very disappointed, but she didn't dare to say anything. She hugged her daughter and kowtowed again, then bowed her eyebrows and left.

Early on the next morning, Li Laoer changed into a brocade robe, Ye Shan drove the carriage, took Grandma He and Sister-in-law Li and their servants into the city.

Sister-in-law Li and my daughter-in-law dressed up specially, but instead of tidying up, they smeared a lot of black dust on their clothes, head and face, looking as embarrassed as those fleeing from the desert.

 When Mrs. Li and Tao Hongying saw them off, they were shocked when they saw them like this, but then they understood.

With this mentality alone, even without the Li family as a backer, the future life of the master and servant would be the same.

At the Sun family in the north of the city, Sun Chengjian deliberately stopped teaching for one day because he received a post from Uncle Zhongshan yesterday saying that he was coming to visit today.

At this moment, he and his cousin Sun Siyuan were sitting together drinking tea, and they both wondered why Uncle Zhongshan came to visit.

 You don’t want to send your children to study, right?

Sun Siyuan was more familiar with the history of the Li family because he worked as a yamen official.

Even he knew that Li Jiaren, his student at Hanbo, was the eldest grandson of the Li family.

But Li Jiaren only studied in the academy for a few months, and he was not his close disciple. Even now that he knew where the Li family was, he didn't shamelessly come to visit.

And Uncle Zhongshan is Jiaren’s father. Could it be that he came to visit today to ask him to be a teacher in the village?

He heard that there is a school in Ruijintan...

The two brothers had their own thoughts and were thinking fast when Li Laoer and others arrived.

The Sun brothers hurried to the door and saw women and children coming down from the carriage. They were all a little confused.

 After welcoming Li Laoer into the house and exchanging a few words, Li Laoer and Sun Siyuan bowed.

“Thank you very much for your careful teaching to me, sir. I don’t want to see you here again.”

Sun Siyuan hurriedly returned the gift and said with a smile, "My uncle is like this, my subordinates are really frightened. Your young master is smart and polite, and he is also talented in reading. Although I have only taught for a few months, I still feel honored to come here. But I don't know, your master Where does Mr. Fu study now? "

Li Laoer listened with a smile and couldn't help but sigh.

When he took his son to Hanbo Academy, he was afraid of stepping on ants while walking. His cautiousness and restraint are still vivid in his mind. And the Mr. Sun in front of me was the best gentleman in the academy at that time, and he was also the brother-in-law of the dean, in charge of the general affairs of the entire academy.

Although he was kind to the father and son, he was still somewhat condescending.

Just three years later, he, a peasant man, became an uncle, while Mr. Shuyuan became a small official in the yamen. When facing him, he had to call himself a subordinate.

How unexpected the changes in the world are!

Of course, he couldn't say these words. He just responded, "Not long after our family moved here, Jiaren went to Luo'an Academy to study. Now he doesn't have time to go home often."

Mr. Sun nodded and said with praise, "Young master, if you have accumulated a lot of experience, you will definitely become a blockbuster and be named on the gold medal list."

 “Thank you, sir, for your kind words!”

 The two sang and talked lively, leaving Sun Chengjian aside.

He was always good-looking, but he was also angry that his cousin didn't mention his acquaintance with the Li family beforehand, so he couldn't bear it now.

He said, "Uncle, you are here today, and my humble house is really full of glory. For this reason, I specially gave the schoolchildren a holiday."

"I just didn't know that my uncle is here, but do you need our brother's help? If so, uncle, just ask. Cousin Siyuan is working as an errand in the government office. Even if he is not able to do it, what about my incompetent brother?"

 This statement means that Sun Siyuan is not free. If the Li family wants to find someone to serve, they can only choose him.

Sun Siyuan raised his eyebrows, lowered his head to drink tea, and said nothing.

Li Laoer smiled faintly and motioned for Aunt He to bring Sister-in-law Li and Nannan forward.

“Mr. Sun Da is right, I really have something to do when I come here today. However, it’s not about our family, but the clan members from your family are sent to join us.

“Earlier, when my brother returned from a boat trip to Quanzhou Prefecture, he met these two masters and servants. Because our family had met them once before, we helped take care of them on the way. I specially sent them to my house today!”

　　The tribesmen defected?

Sun Siyuan and Sun Chengjian were both stunned when they heard this. They thought of countless reasons, but they never thought that this was the reason for the visit!

Sister-in-law Li hugged her daughter and fell to her knees and began to cry.

She was quite smart and did not say that the uncle of the Wang family had poisoned his master. She only said that the master was missing, his wife died of illness, and the uncle could not live in his family.

 Fortunately, I remembered that my uncle Nannan was here and came to seek refuge.

Sun Siyuan was very surprised when he heard that his second cousin was missing and his cousin-in-law passed away. He asked carefully for a long time.

But Sun Chengjian didn't say a word, his brows furrowed tightly.

Sister-in-law Li was crying and talking at the same time. From the corner of her eye, she looked at the expressions of the two Mr. Sun clearly, and she had an idea in her mind.

She pulled her daughter, went directly to hug Sun Chengjian's trousers, and cried loudly.

“Please, for the sake of our dead master, please take in the slave and the young lady. The young lady is young, but she can only be raised with a mouthful of food.

"This slave can work and make needlework. When the young lady gets married, the dowry money will be earned by this slave. She will definitely not be a drag on the master."

Sun Chengjian was not happy to begin with. When his father remarried and gave birth to a younger brother, he disliked him in every possible way. He had been away from home for so many years and had not received much support from his family.

Now that his younger brother is dead, he actually still has to help raise his children?

 Think he is being taken advantage of!

 But the Li family’s uncle is present. If he refuses, will the Li family think that he is cold-blooded and cruel?

While he was hesitating, a woman suddenly shouted loudly outside the door, "No! Master, we can't accept them!"
