Datang Happy Landlord

Chapter 496;
Chapter 490;

Li Yu entered Zou Shuyi's big courtyard, and saw that the entrance of the main hall was also overcrowded, but it was much quieter than the outside, and there were two queues waiting in line.

Then, like an exam, those who passed and those who failed came out from both sides. It was very quiet at the moment. Li Yu walked to the back of the queue, but no one noticed.

All the householders in the line stretched their necks to look inside. These householders are not stupid. Everyone guessed that if they could be selected, it must be after finishing this errand, and the mansion would not be wasted. Chosen able men,

So it can be inferred from this that if you are selected this time, you will have a chance to get a job. Therefore, except for the children of the family, refugees, refugees, and farmers all want to get involved!
But everyone also knew that their family's head Zou had already announced that only one hundred people would be accepted, so the people who came today were all dressed in what they thought was the best clothes, and they were all in good spirits, hoping that they could be selected.

Li Yu stood at the back and coughed. The last two or three farmers turned their heads casually and glanced at them. They wanted to see the one who was not open. They were so unserious, but they didn't expect it to be the head of the house.

"Meet the patriarch."

"Meet the patriarch."

These shouts immediately disrupted the quiet team. When they heard that the Patriarch was coming, they all turned their heads to check, and then gathered around to salute and say hello. Li Yu stretched out his hands and pressed down;

"No courtesy, no courtesy, please calm down, I'm just here to see, I can't delay your serious business, you should do whatever you want."

While Li Yu was speaking, Old Master Zou came out with a group of old men in the main hall. After everyone bowed to each other, they let Li Yu in and sat down. Li Yu looked at Old Master Zou and asked;
"I didn't expect my father-in-law to be so careful. He has already started to arrange things for your Zou surname. It's very good, very good. Our second wife, Li's family, used to have children with nineteen surnames. The heads of each house of the Li family discussed the right and wrong together, and considered the general situation of the world.
Then analyze the pros and cons, and make an equal arrangement, and the five surnames and seven Wangs in the world are all like this. Today, the five surnames and seven Wangs in the millennium are nothing but the princes of the past. There is no difference between the two. The princes of the world obey the orders of the Zhou royal family, Zhou Tianzi,
Later, the five surnames and Qiwang in the millennium were like the princes of the world in the past, obeying the imperial court. This imperial court is like the Zhou royal family thousands of years ago. No matter how the wheel of history turns, these are all changes.

The aristocratic families representing meritorious service are one class, the imperial relatives and relatives in the court are another class, and ordinary people with no one to rely on are another class.

The imperial court is the smallest in number, there is only one family at any time, and the noble meritorious class represented by the five surnames and seven Wangs is slightly more, but compared with the common people in the world, it is much insignificant, and the total is less than one tenth That's all.

Nine out of ten of the remaining people are the people. These are also the foundation of the world and the class with the largest number of people. Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world, but many people have forgotten that the prosperity of the people is suffering, and the death of the people is also suffering.

So if you join a big family with a big family, even if you have something to do, you can hug many people together, share the blessings, and share the difficulties. In the years of war and chaos, it is better to have more people than to fight alone. What do you think? "

For Li Yu, who is 15 years old and has just tied his hair, he can analyze the general trend of the world and the various classes of existence so thoroughly, these farmers are no longer surprised!

My own patriarch and patriarch is not a person at all. I don’t know when it started, a saying was quietly popular in the hundreds of miles around Lantian,
The patriarch of my family is not a person on the ground, but a star in the sky, but he is a powerful person. I heard that the Supreme once secretly sent people down to find this powerful person. I don't know if it is true or not?

But all things are without wind and waves, if Supreme had never thought about this star in the sky, I am afraid there would not be such rumors...

A group of old men responded seriously after hearing Li Yu's words;

"What the patriarch said makes sense."

"What the head of the family said is that we were the poor people back then! Even if you were starving to death on the side of the road, no one would take care of you.

When we fled to Song County outside Luoyang City, our family of eight hadn’t eaten for two days. Our grandchildren couldn’t walk because of hunger, and we were about to starve to death by the side of the road.
My eldest son stole a large bag of food from a rich family so that we could have enough to eat. I don’t know how the eldest son, who hadn’t eaten for two days, got the strength to resist by stealing a hundred catties of corn...

As a result, I was driven over by the servants and beaten to death on the spot. When the rich family came to arrest my son, my eldest son drove the remaining seven members of our family to a mountain den and did not allow us to go out.

Then my eldest son went out to distract those who came to arrest him, and waited for us to hide for a long time to see if there was no movement before we dared to go out to look for it.

In the end, my eldest son was beaten to death with his eyes open, but his face was still full of smiles even after he died...

Because he hid the big bag of food and all seven of us, the old and young women, and no one else could find it, and his family members survived because of the big bag of food, so my eldest son died with a smile go. "

After the old man finished speaking, the audience was silent. They were all farmers who had experienced this. Who didn't have such a sad thing?Otherwise, why are they scrambling to join the household registration of servants with five surnames and Qiwang Li's second room?
The old man who spoke was already 70 or [-] years old. When he talked about his dead eldest son, two lines of turbid tears flowed down the old man's face. The old man wiped away his tears fiercely with a sad face, and asked stubbornly as he choked on Li Yu;

"Patriarch...you...you say my eldest son is a thief?"

Li Yu stood up without saying a word, gritted his teeth and clenched his fist tightly;
"Your eldest son is not a thief, even though he stole other people's food for a generation, I still want to say that he is not a thief.

Your eldest son is a good man with responsibility and blood. I say he is a good man because when the family was about to starve to death, he stepped forward to get a bag of food for the family and saved the lives of the family of seven.

I said that he has the courage to take responsibility because he did not run away, but chose to face the men who were chasing him.

I said he was bloody because he didn't fight back when he was beaten to death, and he didn't tell you where you were hiding. He paid for that bag of corn with his own life!
Your eldest son is a good guy in my eyes, he is not a thief! "

Hearing Li Yu's definition of his son, the old man burst into tears immediately, and knelt down for Li Yu with a plop;
"Ah... ah woo... ah... thank you, patriarch, for speaking like this for my elder son, the villain will be grateful for the rest of his life... ah... my dear...you died so badly..."

Li Yu didn't know what was wrong, but he also went up to stop the old man, and he burst into tears. Even though he had ups and downs in his previous life, he had never heard of people starving to death. , Willing to work hard and save face, even a coolie can support a family, I didn't expect it to be so miserable here in the years of war and chaos...

Zou Shuyi just took out the silk scarf to wipe the tears of this little man, Tan Chunxichun, who was waiting beside Li Yu, hurried forward to help Li Yu wipe away the tears. The two maids grew up in the second room of Li's family. The first-class maid, the family has always been the nobleman of Li's second wife, where has she heard such a miserable thing?
He even took the life of a good man for a bag of corn, and the two maids were crying too. Li Yu raised his hand to touch his tears and went forward to help the old man up.

"My father-in-law, get up quickly, our Li family's second wife does not have the custom of kneeling, let alone humiliating our own clansmen, don't do this in the future.

Besides, no matter who is called to judge him, he is not a thief. I guess such a bloody man, if he wants to resist the other party, it is impossible to go back without hurting an intact one? "

After Li Yu asked this question, the old man didn't speak and just wiped away his tears. A middle-aged man stood at the door with a burly physique. Wiped a tear and said;

"The head of the family has a clever calculation, and his guess is not bad at all. My elder brother has been very powerful since he was a child. He can fight dozens of servants by himself. The dozen or so servants are not my elder brother's opponent at all. If my elder brother wants to do it, he can kill them. More than a dozen servants, but my eldest brother felt wronged and didn't fight back. He was beaten to death on the spot. That rich family is very hateful, so let's just kill them... and... and..."

Li Yu scolded mercilessly with a cold face;
"Speak! Tell me what happened back then verbatim. If you dare to speak a lie today, the patriarch will open the ancestral hall to convict you and beat you to death in front of the patriarchs with [-] surnames."

"Wei! Qi patriarch, they... they beat my elder brother to death, we admit it, but they... cut my elder brother's lower body, when we dug a pit for my elder brother to bury, he was still incomplete, I also searched nearby, but found nothing..."

This man was very embarrassed to say such a shameful thing, he lowered his head deeply, and the old man who was supported by Li Yu to sit down was also flushed with shame and at a loss what to do.

"What? You're too deceitful!"

"Snapped!……"

When Li Yu heard about beating someone to death and insulting other people's corpses, he trembled angrily. Without saying a word, he picked up the ceramic ornaments on the table and slammed them onto the ground, scaring everyone present to tremble. , everyone has never seen such a well-spoken patriarch lose his temper. Today is the first time to see the patriarch who is talking and laughing on weekdays, and even has a bit of naughty. The head dare not speak.

Panting heavily, Li Yu stepped forward a few times, almost touching the man's face, and asked with red eyes;

"Why didn't you report these things to Aye back then?"

The man with his head down was forced by Li Yu to take two steps back and leaned against the door panel of the main hall to reply in a low voice;
"Patriarch, our family felt that the elder brother stole people's food as shameful, so we never dared to say it, it may be that now that we have registered with our Li family, we no longer have to worry about starving to death, so I, Aye, suffer It was only then that I said it.”

Li Yu played with his teeth and asked word by word;

"Do you know the rich man's name and where he lives?"

Hearing the patriarch's question, the man raised his head bravely, and answered stubbornly with tears in his eyes;

"Patriarch, I have inquired clearly, and I will never forget it in my life. The rich family's surname is Peng Sanlaizi, nicknamed Peng Sanlai..."

Before the middle-aged man finished speaking, Li Yu roared;
"Where is Ma Nineteen?"

Today is the two Ma Shijiu brothers who led a team to guard Li Yu's safety. After following Li Yu in, they guarded the entrance of the main hall.

If the pitiful things of these peasant households had nothing to do with the birth of a child in the Li family in the past, it would be different today. These people have entered the household registration of the second house of the Li family, and they are members of the second house of the Li family.

The second wife of Li's family formed the rules from Longxi, once a member of his clan is bullied, it is the whole clan's business immediately,

Just like the widow who was beaten to death before, the old patriarch took people to destroy their whole family. Now Li Yu's guards heard that their clansmen were beaten to death, but they would be insulted by the corpse?
The children of Li Yu's guards were all red-eyed and clenched their fists. Ma Jiujiu, who was guarding the gate, heard the Patriarch's call and immediately stretched out his hand to push the farmer away from the gate, causing them to be stunned. He roared in and agreed;

"The little guy is here!"

Li Yu ordered word by word;

"Order your two brothers to lead thirty guards, go to the granary to fetch ten generations of corn, go to Song County outside Luoyang City, and return the corn to Peng Sanlaizi.

In addition, explain to him what happened back then, and tell him that the person who died was also registered as Li's household registration. He didn't fight back because he stole a bag of grain and was wronged back then, not because he was afraid of them. "

Ma Shijiu thought that he was going to fight for revenge, but ended up paying back the food, so he couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable, but the Patriarch's order had been issued, so he could only reply weakly;
"It's the head of the house."

Li Yu turned his head to look at the brother of the dead man again, and asked in a deep voice;

"Do you still remember where your elder brother was buried? If you remember, go to Luoyang with Nineteen and bring your elder brother's bones back for a proper burial."

When the man heard that his elder brother was about to be buried, he knelt down without saying a word, crying and saying;

"Patriarch Xie, the words of Patriarch Hui, the villain remembers clearly. He made a mark back then. At that time, there was nothing but a pit to bury..."

"Okay, let's go now. You go to collect the corn and leave immediately. You all ride on horses and bring a carriage."

"Thank you Patriarch, thank you Patriarch."

The man kept kowtowing with tears streaming down his face, and the old man next to him was also wiping away tears, but his face was full of joy.

His favorite eldest son is now recognized by the patriarch as not a thief, and he can finally get it back for a proper burial. This time, no matter what, he wants to get a high-quality coffin for his eldest son, even if he spends all three of the family's money. The old man would spare no expense for a lot of money...

Li Yu stood with his hands behind his back, looked at Ma Jiu calmly, and spoke again, his voice was as cold as coming from the Nine Netherworld;
"I returned their corn and explained what happened back then. I want all the heads of Peng Sanlaizi's sons, grandsons, and family men. If you dare to take back one less, the family law of the Li family will never forgive you 32 people lightly!"

Ma Jiu's drooping shoulders immediately became excited after hearing this order. Since he became a bodyguard with Li Yu, he ate mutton every day, and his energy that was about to explode was often on the verge of exploding. !

Hearing that he can go out and kill people, the gene inherited from Ma Nineteen's ancestors~ the killing battle formation was completely revived, seduced by Li Yu's order, Ma Nineteen spit and flew like a roar!
"only!"

Li Yu pulled up the man who was still kowtowing on the ground, and calmly ordered;
"Go! Go and kill two heads with your own hands, and avenge your elder brother! If you dare not do it and come back, I will break your leg."

The man blushed with excitement, gritted his teeth and responded;

"only!"

Seeing the tall and burly Ma Shijiu leading a group of guards out in a hurry, Li Yu smiled and said to himself;

"No matter who he is, he can't stop the more than 30 people led by the nineteen brothers, even the branch of Qiwangli with five surnames. I know very well the people I personally taught.

If he brought knives and guns to the 5000 men and horses of the nineteen brothers, he could wipe out any family in the five surnames and seven families.

Tanchun next to him answered;
"That is, Mr. Lang personally followed the military books taught in the study. It is not an ordinary art of war. It is the ancestor of our Li family, the general of the Qin Dynasty inherited the secret method from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Pass it on to our second room..."

Li Yu hurriedly raised an index finger to his mouth;
"Shh!"

Tanchun quickly nodded and covered his mouth with a silk scarf, then looked at everyone;
"You are all members of Li's own clan. Don't tell others what I said just now. It's our second room's secret, understand?"

"Don't worry, lady, I won't tell if I'm killed!"

"It's a lady, we won't tell it."

Zou Shuyi's Aye stood up, looked at the farmers queuing outside the door and said seriously;
"If any of our clansmen with the surname Zou dares to reveal the secrets of our second room, our Zou surname will tell him to die three times, have you heard?"

"I heard the parents!"

"heard it."
