Hearing this, Rong Niang said shyly, "Daozhang Yu, it's late at night, and the road is far away, can't we keep him for a night?"
Yu Qingyao said lightly: "If he can come here alone at night, he can go to Wujia Village alone."
Speaking of this, Yu Qingyao remembered something and asked: "Wu Qingde, be honest, why did you come to me at night?"
Li Huaide had no choice, thought for a while, and told the story that he heard the villagers in Wujia Village say that there might be ghosts. Said that he came to check out out of curiosity.
Yu Qingyao was speechless, she didn't expect him to come because of this. She was a little impressed by him, she didn't expect him to take risks for the safety of the villagers.
For a mortal warrior, he would risk his life to venture into a bamboo forest that might be haunted at night. This is actually a very dangerous act of committing suicide.
Now that we have come to this point, Li Huaide took the opportunity to ask: "Master Dao, why are you living in seclusion here?"
Yu Qingyao is too lazy to explain this kind of thing to irrelevant and disliked people. She smiled and said: "Blowing up a pool of spring water, what's the matter with you? Zhen, send the guests out!"
She immediately issued an order to evict the guest.
Wu Zhen immediately flew over and said, "Boy! Come with me!"
Li Huaide had no choice but to follow Wu Zhen away.
After leaving the bamboo forest, Li Huaide went to Wujia Village.
He was a little regretful that he couldn't stay, but he was still very happy because he saw his junior sister.
He decided to come back at dawn the next day.
Li Huaide couldn't sleep all night, he waited impatiently for dawn, and immediately set off for the bamboo forest.
When he reached the edge of the bamboo forest, he was about to rush in, when a woman came out, it was Rongniang.
She looked at her lover shyly, Wu Zhen came out from behind, dropped a rattan box, and said, "I'll just send it here, boy, she'll leave it to you."
Li Huaide was dumbfounded, what do you mean? Does this mean you don't want to see me anymore? I was thinking of seeing Rongniang as an excuse to see my junior sister more often!
Rong Niang came over and said happily: "Qingde, you are here to pick me up, aren't you?"
Under Wu Zhen's stare, Li Huaide nodded awkwardly.
He reluctantly picked up Rongniang's luggage and brought Rongniang down the mountain.
Yu Qingyao really doesn't plan to see Wu Qingde again.
She gave Rongniang a silver note of one thousand taels, five hundred taels as a gift from her husband, and the other five hundred taels as a wedding red envelope from her.
From the perspective of the Holy Mother, the man's lover has come back from a long distance, and it is embarrassing to keep Rong Niang. It's not easy for people to meet once every five years, right? Everyone is getting old, and they are going to get married soon, so why keep them? So impersonal.
Therefore, as soon as he found out that Wu Qingde was approaching, Yu Qingyao decisively sent Rong Niang out.
Anyway, she has learned piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she can't learn to compose poetry for a while, so it's useless to keep Rong Niang. Not as beautiful as an adult.
Rong Niang was very grateful to see Daoist Yu being so sympathetic to her. She was so eager to be with her lover!
Joyfully, she followed her lover down the mountain, talking non-stop about her life in recent years, and asking how his lover was doing outside. Complaining about why it took so long to come back, and looking forward to a better life in the future.
Li Huaide was perfunctory while thinking about the funeral.
This funeral refers to his own funeral.
He was going to settle down with Rong Niang, buy her a big house, and give the house and land in Wujia Village to his father's family. Then he could die and wait for his reincarnation as a Taoist priest, and then he would come back to find his junior sister to reconnect.
Rong Niang was full of joy, looking forward to marrying her lover, giving birth to a few fat boys, and living a happy life of love and affection. This is really a tragedy!
Taking Rongniang back to Wujia Village, Rongniang couldn't help feeling suspicious when she saw Wu Qingde's small courtyard.
Li Huaide is only staying here temporarily. He doesn't care about mundane affairs by nature, and in order to keep a low profile, he only bought a five-room brick house. This kind of house is very good in the village, but to Rong Niang, who has seen the world, she doesn't like it.
The furniture in the house is commonly used by the villagers. It is a good thing in the village, but it is actually not worth a lot of money.
She estimated the price accurately at once, and the yard was no more than thirty taels of silver.
This is far from what Li Huaide boasted in front of Daoist Yu that he earned five thousand taels of silver.
She had an ugly look on her face and asked, "Qingde, haven't you made any money outside?"
Li Huaide smiled, took out a stack of banknotes, shook them like a fan, then handed them to her and said, "Here, I'm just staying here temporarily, this house is prepared to be given away."
Rong Niang took the bank note and counted it briefly, and found that there were seven or eight thousand taels, so she smiled happily and asked, "Who do you want to give this house to?"
Li Huaide pondered for a while and said: "The people I'm hiring now to farm the land for me are my biological parents' family. Although I don't want to recognize my relatives again, the house and land I bought here are intended to be given to them."
Rong Niang snorted and asked, "Isn't Boss Wu your biological father?"
Li Huaide nodded with a smile, and said, "I was adopted when I was young."
Thinking that this was a sad matter for her lover, Rong Niang didn't want to ask more questions.
She wanted to return the silver ticket to her lover, but Li Huaide waved his hand and said indifferently, "Take it!"
Rong Niang was overjoyed, and felt that the lover meant to let her be the housekeeper, and this was the rhythm of marrying herself, so she hummed shyly, and carefully collected the bank note. This is the guarantee of their future life.
With these silvers, you don't have to worry about life in the future.
When it was lunch time, the Wu family came to help with the cooking. Rong Niang knew that this was from the lover's family, so she was very polite.
After dinner, Li Huaide said: "You stay here first, I will go to the city."
Rong Niang asked, "Why are you going to the city?"
Li Huaide smiled and said, "You can't live here with me, I'll buy you a big manor."
Rong Niang was overjoyed in her heart, and she agreed with all her heart.
Li Huaide asked: "What kind of manor do you want?"
After thinking about it for a while, Rong Niang really made some requests according to her own ideas.
She felt that the manor would be the place where she would live for the rest of her life in the future, so she must buy it according to her wishes. Otherwise it is not comfortable to live.
Li Huaide memorized it carefully, and then set off to buy the manor.
Li Huaide ran out in a hurry, and asked around where there was a big Zhuangzi to sell.
When I arrived at the dental store, I found out that there are only three manors available for purchase. There is a manor that is closest to Rongniang's request, the specific situation needs to be visited to know. The middlemen are all full of good words, but what they say is inaccurate. A thatched cottage, they dare to tell you the former residence of a celebrity. There is a tree in the yard, dare to tell you that the tree is full of shade.
He is a careful person. Considering that Rongniang lives alone, without servants, he bought ten servants and four maids and returned, handed the deed of sale to Rongniang, told her to keep them, and ordered all the servants to be called her masters. .
Rong Niang accepted it shyly, feeling that the lover was going to hand over the entire family business to her, she was extremely happy, and she was at home preparing to be the hostess.
