Poor family farming: the sick and weak scholar's wife is very sturdy

Chapter 55
"I opened this road, and I planted this tree. If you want to pass here, you can save money to buy roads!"

Zhang San pointed at Li Yuyan and Liu Yong with a steel knife in his hand, and slowly approached Li Yuyan and them while shouting.

I didn't even realize why there were only two people at the scene, and the rest of them disappeared.

Li Yuyan saw this, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, showing a sneer:
"Are you sure you want to rob us?"

"What nonsense! Hand over all the valuables to me!"

Zhang San looked ferocious, staring at Li Yuyan.

It seems to be considering which one to rob first, after all, both of them look quite jeweled.

Li Yuyan looked at Zhang San's appearance and snorted coldly in his heart, but there was still a faint smile on his face:
"What if I don't?"

"court death!"

Hearing Li Yuyan's answer, Zhang San immediately became angry from embarrassment. He punched Li Yuyan, and at the same time swung the steel knife in his hand, hitting Li Yuyan's head.

However, in the next second, his hand holding the steel knife was shot by an arrow from a soldier ambushing in the grass.

"what!!!!!"

There was a scream, and the steel knife in Zhang San's hand fell to the ground, blood flowed continuously along Zhang San's arm, and the pain made his face pale instantly.

He clutched his wound and looked at his right arm in disbelief. Where did the arrow come from?

The head of the family was attacked, and dozens of bandit minions suddenly panicked.

They raised their steel knives and slashed at Li Yuyan and Liu Yong, but found that they couldn't get close to them at all, and even the corners of their clothes couldn't be stained, which made them even more flustered.

At this time, dozens of sharp arrows flew out of the grass, hitting the bandit's vital point with precision.

Watching his brothers fall in a pool of blood wave after wave, Zhang San finally realized that these two were not simple.

They are definitely not ordinary merchants, and they pretend to be masters of merchants!
So, enduring the severe pain, he immediately fled the scene with the only remaining brother, preparing to go to the mountain to find reinforcements.

However, before he could take two steps, a cold light pierced his heart from behind him.

He opened his eyes wide, looked down at the sharp arrow piercing his heart, his eyes were full of disbelief.

He closed his eyes unwillingly, and his body slowly slumped to the ground until he lost all signs of life.

The head of the family was dead, and the rest of the young men scattered and fled in all directions, but the sharp arrows flying from the grass left them nowhere to hide, and they all became hedgehogs.

"Ninth brother, they are all dead, what should we do next?"

Liu Yong, who was not optimistic about Li Yuyan's plan, was slapped in the face again.

Now, he was completely convinced by Li Yuyan.

"Everyone put on their clothes, let's go up the mountain and catch the turtle in the jar!"

Following Li Yuyan's order, the soldiers quickly took off the clothes of the dead bandits and put them on themselves, dressed up as bandits and pushed the cart towards the bandits' lair on the mountain.

The bandit's lair is at the mouth of Yingzui Mountain. The terrain is steep, surrounded by cliffs, and if you are not careful, you will fall to pieces.

It can be seen how difficult it was when the imperial court sent troops to wipe out the bandits in Yingzui Mountain!

In the deepest part of Yingzui Mountain, there is an empty valley, and there is a stockade made of stones in the valley.

That should be where the bandits lived.

Outside the stockade, a few bandits on guard saw someone pushing a cart up the mountain from a distance, and when they looked at the clothes the visitor was wearing, they thought it was the master who came back from robbery.

"The master is back!"

Several bandits opened the gate of the village and ran down one after another to greet them.

When Li Yuyan saw this, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Immediately, he ordered the soldiers to push the cart to a stop, then lowered the brim of his hat and walked forward.

Seeing Li Yuyan coming out, several bandits on guard waved at them, thinking that the boss asked them to carry the spoils.

So he quickened his pace, almost running forward.

"Master, you have worked hard! Let me help..."

Before the few people who had just arrived in front of Li Yuyan finished speaking, they felt a cold touch on their necks, and then fell to the ground and lost their breath.

Looking at the fallen bandits, Li Yuyan showed a strange smile, and then continued to let the soldiers push the cart towards the stockade.

The bandits in the village thought that the head of the family had returned, and they all greeted him happily.

But when they saw Li Yuyan and the others clearly, their expressions changed in an instant. These people are not brothers from the master and the cottage at all!

At this time, Li Yuyan didn't hide anymore, he directly showed the saber in his hand, and killed the nearest bandit.

Although these bandits also know some hands and feet skills, compared with the real soldiers, they are very different.

Soon, they all fell into a pool of blood.

Li Yuyan looked at the corpse on the ground coldly, and thought to himself:

"Girl, you don't have to worry about the bandits on Yingzui Mountain trying to find you bad luck!"

……

In the capital city, Lin Xiao and Yu Xilin came to the gate of Huxin Pavilion.

I saw that there were many luxurious sedan chairs parked at the entrance of the Huxin Pavilion, which showed their wealth, and it was enough to prove that they valued the Poetry Club.

Zhao Qian was standing on the side of the entrance of the Huxin Pavilion. When he saw Lin Xiao and Yu Xilin, he immediately greeted them.

He arched his hands towards Lin Xiao: "Young Master Lin!"

"Master Zhao!"

Lin Xiao also bowed his hands to him in return.

Yu Xilin also nodded politely to Zhao Qian, but he didn't have any good feelings for Zhao Qian in his heart.

But since he was accompanying Lin Xiaolai to the poetry club, he would try his best to cooperate, but he would not show too much enthusiasm.

"Mr. Lin, it is my honor, Mr. Zhao, that you can come. Please come with me!"

Zhao Qian said a few polite words, and then made a gesture of invitation.

Lin Xiao nodded, and then followed Zhao Qian towards the Huxin Pavilion.

Huxin Pavilion, as its name suggests, is a wooden pavilion located in the middle of the lake.

The only promenade leads directly to the pavilion, and the others are the endless lake.

At this time, the Huxin Pavilion was already full of literati and scholars. They waved their fans and took advantage of the gentle lake breeze to taste wine and recite poems.

Several of these people knew Yu Xilin, and they were talking about Yu Xilin behind their backs with disdain on their faces.

"Hey, why is he here? Didn't the boy at the door be lazy and not stop him?"

"You can't say that, maybe he bought the admission ticket and walked in right away?"

"He has this spare money? Don't talk about it!" A fat young man said sarcastically, "If he really has this spare money, he won't even go to cheat my own sister for his own money for dinner!"

This overweight young man is called Chen Yun, and he is the second young master of the Beijing Tavern.

This group of literati and refined scholars originally looked down on him, after all, he belongs to the merchant family, which is no different from the humble family.

Later, because his eldest brother obtained a good reputation and became an official in the court, as the saying goes, one person can ascend to heaven, and the status of his family has also changed from the original business status to the official status.

These literati and refined scholars reluctantly accepted him.
