Fish Leaping Farm Gate

Chapter 282
When a ray of sunlight shone through the screen window in the morning, Du Xiaoyu woke up rubbing his eyes. By the time he got dressed, Li Yuanqing had already finished a set of punches in the courtyard.

He changed into casual clothes and sat down. The food was already set on the table. Because Mrs. Cao also lived here, Huang Xiaoying felt it was inconvenient, so she offered to have dinner with Mrs. Cao.

Du Wentao went to a private school, so it was just the two of them.

"How is cousin?" Li Yuanqing asked, "Then Mrs. Cao hasn't shown her feet yet?"

Du Xiaoyu picked up a pickled bamboo shoot with chopsticks, and snorted, "She is very cunning. Fortunately, she was called here this time, otherwise I wouldn't know how insidious she is. I heard from Caiping that she often hinted that Miss Xiaoying should not forget herself. She has forgetfulness. Whenever sister Xiaoying hugs Xiaohe, she will be very nervous next to her, making sister Xiaoying dare not hug her. Although these are small places, they can often affect a person and cause profound problems. psychological suggestion, a bit like hypnosis."

Li Yuanqing saw that what she said was logical, and couldn't help laughing, "When did you understand this? What is hypnosis?"

"This..." Du Xiaoyu scratched his head, felt troubled, and thought for a while, "For example, there is a person who is in good health, but the doctor keeps telling him that you have a disease that cannot be cured, and you will die sooner or later. Then, If this person trusts the doctor very much, he will often think about that sentence, and his health will gradually get worse, and he may really die."

Li Yuanqing was quite touched, and after thinking for a while, he suddenly realized, "This is exactly the same as looking at plum blossoms to quench thirst."

Because I believe that there are plums, the tongue will produce fluid, but in fact, there is no such thing. It is all psychological reasons that lead to the body's reaction.

"Right, that is it."

While the two were talking, Li Qin hurried over, "Master..."

Li Yuanqing was quite unhappy when he interrupted his conversation with Du Xiaoyu, and said coldly, "What's the matter?"

Seeing the master's expression, Li Qin hurriedly said, "It's the steward of the magistrate Wang who wants to see the young master."

The previous prefect of Jinan was implicated in the corruption of ink by the Ministry of Industry last time, and then he was dismissed. When the new prefect took office, Li Yuanqing also went to see him.

"He didn't say anything?" He put down the chopsticks in his hand.

Li Qin replied, "No...but his attitude is very arrogant. He insisted on coming to see the young master at this time." Yuan Qingchen warned him not to rely on the power of the Li family, so he did not confront him head-on.

The new Mr. Wang is not only higher in rank than him, but his father-in-law is also the newly promoted Minister of the Ministry of War, replacing the original Li Yu's position. Li Yuanqing's face darkened, he picked up the chopsticks and finished the rest of the meal before standing up .

Chang Lu had swaggered into the yard at this moment.

"I've met Mr. Li." He folded his fists and bowed, without much respect on his face.

"I don't know what is the housekeeper doing?"

"I'm here to handle some private matters for our lord, and I have something to ask lord Li by the way." Chang Lu straightened his squirrel leather jacket.

Li Yuanqing let him go to the hall together.

Chang Lu chatted for a while and then got to the point, "Our lord heard that Mr. Li has grown brassica seeds for trial planting. We are very interested and want to hear Mr. Li's thoughts. Can these brassicas really produce oil when they are planted? How is it compared to sesame oil? Is it good to plant? Please tell Master Li in detail, the villain is also easy to deal with."

It was actually about brassica, Li Yuanqing sneered secretly, "It's not inferior to sesame oil, it's only in the trial planting stage, I dare not make any conclusions rashly."

Seeing his indifferent attitude, Chang Lu was a little unhappy. Although he was only a housekeeper, which county would he go to without being fawned on?First of all, the money is brought up, and the wine and food are entertained, but here they are not even served with a sip of tea!Their Li family is different now, Li Yu is no longer used by the Holy Spirit, so I don't know what else to rely on?
"Master Li, when the seeds are harvested next year, you should know what to do." Chang Lu said suddenly.

Li Yuanqing raised his eyebrows, his eyes were cold and stern, "Master Wang asked you to spread the word like this?"

When Chang Lu was seen by him, he immediately felt a little guilty. He knew what his lord wanted, but he didn't give an order directly, so he said this sentence on his own initiative. Therefore, no matter how brave he was, he still didn't dare to admit it indiscriminately. , only coughed and said, "The villain thinks the adult is a sensible person."

Li Yuanqing hated this kind of people deeply, he used chicken feathers as arrows, and acted like a bully, but he didn't want to argue with him, so he said lightly, "Isn't Steward Chang only here for this matter?"

Already having the intention of issuing an order to evict guests, Chang Lu felt that things were going to go wrong, so he hurriedly said, "Master Li, it will be time for the performance appraisal in a year or so. Master Li should make more plans for himself." Said Let me take my leave first.

Li Qin blushed from being suppressed by the side, and shouted at this time, "It's just a magistrate, it's unreasonable to dare to threaten the young master!"

Li Yuanqing couldn't help laughing, "That's three levels higher than me, why can't you threaten?"

"Ah, does the young master really want to submit to him? The young master brought back the brassica seeds from Hengyang, and he and the young lady found someone to try planting them. Why should he take credit for nothing?" Li Qin said angrily. , "I want a lot of masters to write a letter and send it to the master. No matter what, the master is still a third-rank official. What is his surname Wang?"

Li Yu used to be a figure who called the wind and rain in the capital. Even though Li Qin was a servant, he was honored. How had he ever received such a bird?Even the butler of the second official family of the six major departments would not be so arrogant when he saw him!
Li Yuanqing didn't answer, and went straight to the back room.

Du Xiaoyu was waiting there, saw him coming in, and asked with a smile, "Why did the magistrate's butler come to our Feixian County, didn't he come to ask you to fight the autumn breeze?"

"Fight the autumn wind? He dares." Li Yuanqing snorted, "It's our magistrate who is jealous."

"Ah? What are you jealous of?" Du Xiaoyu wondered, the magistrate would still be jealous of a county magistrate?

"Brassica."

If the cultivation of brassicas is successful, the structure of the crops will be greatly changed. Once they get used to brassica oil and know how to plant it, the country will definitely promote it. This is a very good political achievement. It is possible, so how could the magistrate let go of the good opportunity in front of him?

Du Xiaoyu scolded, "This magistrate is really not a good guy, what are you going to do? He wants to wait until next year to harvest the seeds, and grab them all and try planting them himself?"

"It doesn't hurt to give him some."

"Why?" Du Xiaoyu raised his eyebrows, "We planted it after working so hard for so long, and he wants to get a piece of the pie every time he moves his mouth. How can there be such a good thing in the world!"

"Don't be impatient, he may not be good at planting." Li Yuanqing smiled, "There is still more than half a year to go, this matter needs to be discussed in the long run."

"It's true, I don't know what will happen next year." Du Xiaoyu said as he took out a piece of jewelry from the gold-painted mahogany box.

Li Yuanqing glanced at it. This jewelry is a necklace, very luxurious. She doesn't like to wear these on weekdays. She couldn't help asking, "Are you going out? Are you meeting some distinguished guests?"

"It's for Sister Xiaoying's shock." She said mysteriously.

Li Yuanqing didn't know why, but he also knew that she had a lot of ideas, most of which were some kind of schemes, so he laughed, pinched her face and said, "My head is full of ghost ideas, will it hit me one day? "

"You're going to do something wrong, that's for sure." Du Xiaoyu pouted.

She had a cute and cute look, and he couldn't help but bow his head and kiss her.

Coincidentally, Caiping knocked on the door from outside at this time, saying that Huang Xiaoying and Mrs. Cao had come.

The two hurriedly separated, Li Yuanqing blushed, and glared at her. It was rare for him to be on a holiday, and there was no time for the two of them to be alone. It seemed that Huang Xiaoying's matter had been completely resolved, so he turned and went to the room.

"I called you here to taste the sweet soup. The kitchen has just made it to help digestion." She smiled and asked Qingzhu to bring it from the kitchen. "Just take a few bites, otherwise you will be full."

There are several kinds of fruits in the sweet soup, which is very delicious.

After the three of them used up, Du Xiaoyu handed the necklace to Huang Xiaoying in front of Mrs. Cao.

This necklace is made of pearls. Although it is not a southern pearl, it is very rare. The pendant is a flower made of eight colored pearls, which is very unique.

"After thinking about it, I think your forgetfulness may also be shocking. I heard that pearls are shocking, so I thought of putting them on for you. Maybe it will be useful."

"Ah, how is this possible? How can I take your things?" Huang Xiaoying hastily declined.

"Where can I afford such a good pearl? It belongs to my grandmother. I asked her to borrow it." Du Xiaoyu laughed, "Grandma also cares about you very much. She heard that it was used to suppress shocks, so she immediately took it out. You Wear it well, and return it to me when you are done. Grandma likes this chain very much, and she is not willing to wear it usually. She said that she has been consecrated by an eminent monk, and it is several times better than jade, and it is very beneficial to the body."

What Huang Xiaoying said didn't know what to do, she really didn't dare to take such a valuable thing, what if she lost it?But thinking of what Du Xiaoyu said, saying that it is best to listen to her, he hesitated even more.

Mrs. Cao listened to it, and said enviously, "You two sisters have such a good relationship, sister Xiaoying, you must not disappoint Madam's kindness!"

"This this……"

"What is this, Mrs. Cao is right, sister Xiaoying, you always say you are bothering me, if this chain can make you better, why don't you just live here?" Du Xiaoyu laughed, "I It's selfish, I want you to get well soon, don't rely on me anymore."

The other two laughed.

"Alright then." Huang Xiaoying had no choice but to accept the kindness, and carefully took it and put it on her neck.

The pearls emitted a soft light under the light, and Du Xiaoyu saw that Mrs. Cao's eyes were shining, and she looked at the beaded chain without blinking.

"Okay, there's nothing else to do, go and see Xiaohe."

Huang Xiaoying said goodbye to Mrs. Cao and left.

Recently, I have written a lot of trivial things. The main reason is that I set the heroine to get married and ended the article. Therefore, because the plot was not designed in advance, and my previous book was about house fighting, the hero is basically Soy sauce, so, I'm sorry Li Yuanqing children's shoes, I will write more later.

However, this article can’t be written long anymore, it’s still a pre-set relationship, I’m afraid it will waste everyone’s starting point coins if I forcefully write it long, so if there are no accidents, I will conclude the article next month.
