Fang Qi and Li Qiusui were talking together, and all the servants, including Songyuan Songyoshi, were kept at a distance. The two of them had a tacit understanding and did not want to cause trouble, so they deliberately lowered their voices.

Li Qiu Sui raised his voice and called for people to come over to pick fruits. Five or six people came in, and all the dates on the jujube trees were quickly picked.

After learning that Fang Qi was leaving to return to the capital soon, Li Qiusui felt very sorry for not taking advantage of the opportunity and being a villain.

There is also the matter of her second brother joining the army. Fang Qi seems to be very familiar with Yong'an Marquis.

There is an opportunity to build a relationship, and you would be a fool to miss it.

With a clear purpose, Li Qiusui showed great attentiveness and packed up a lot of shelf-stable fruits. They were all selected in advance and kept for his own family to eat or given as gifts to others.

"Young Master Fang has returned to the capital. It's not convenient for us to see him off in person. People in the countryside don't have much to offer, so pick more fresh fruits and save them for the young master to beat on his teeth as a gift on the way."

Li Qiusui hurriedly prepared more than ten baskets of fruits, and he politely asked Songyuan Songyi to help carry them. He also thoughtfully ordered his mule cart to make a special trip to deliver them.

The girl in front of her was still a little girl in her early ten years, her face was still childish in the sunshine, and she even had a bit of baby fat.

Fang Qi closed his eyes. How could he not guess Li Qiu Sui's little thoughts? When using people, you can go forward, but when you don't need people, you can go behind. The two faces in front and back can be said to be clearly revealed.

He chuckled almost inaudibly, raised his hand to cover the sunlight above his head, and sighed softly: "Thank you, Miss Li. However, no matter how much fruit you have, there will always be a time when you finish eating it. When the time comes, I'm afraid the other fruits will be gone." I can’t enter my mouth anymore.”

The ending sound is long.

The corners of Li Qiusui's eyebrows twitched, and he felt that Mr. Fang was weird today, very different from before.

Her fruits are delicious and have been sold to the capital for a long time. If you want to eat them, all you have to do is spend some money.Of course, it's very expensive.But according to Fang Qi's identity, he shouldn't be short of that little money?
However, when it came to this matter, since he wanted to build a good relationship with others, Li Qiu Sui simply took care of everything and said cheerfully: "Young Master is worried too much, why is it so difficult? When the time comes, if you want to eat the fruit, just write a letter. There are countless merchants in Linshan County traveling to and from the capital, so I will just find someone to take them with me when the time comes."

Fang Qi seemed to be so satisfied this time that he let out a soft "hmm".

The autumn sunshine was leaning towards him, and his eyes looked bright and clear, unlike the philistine look he had before when he was haggling over a few fruits.

Li Qiusui frowned and turned his head.

……

After finally sending away the god of plague, Li Qiusui returned to the front hall.

At this time, Li Changshan had already sent people away, and Li Changlei was still kneeling in front of his parents.

Just listen to Li Changshan ask Li Changlei, "Changlei, why don't you discuss such a big matter with your family first? And as Magistrate Jiang said, what's the matter with Marquis Yong'an showing up in front of him? Didn't you go to Fucheng ten years ago with Suisui?" It's been so many days. When did you show your name to Yong'an Hou? Today, strange to say, who is the owner of Yuzhuang? It seems that Suisui and Changlei are familiar with them, and they even came to visit our father... "

Li Qiusui's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly walked a few steps and raised his voice to try to change the subject, "Brother, have everyone been sent away?"

"Yes. Is Young Master Fang gone?" Li Changshan came back from sending someone to see Li Qiu Sui picking dates. Before, it was the same girl who had repeatedly warned not to let anyone pick dates.

"He's leaving. He said he would return to the capital in two days."

Li Changshan suddenly realized that it was no wonder. He also said that he would pick all the dates and give them away, "Did you specify a specific date? No, I will take the time to give them away."

"I didn't say a specific day. Maybe they don't want people to know about it at all. They sent so many fruits to us, which can be regarded as our family's best wishes."

With Li Qiusui making jokes inside, the truth changed.According to Li Qiusui, it was Yufeng who Li Changlei met first.

The two young people had similar interests and cherished each other, and soon became good friends who talked about everything.When something happened to Li Sanzhu, Yufeng was particularly righteous. He saw his friend's distress and used his family's power to find out the whereabouts of the murderer.Together, the two persuaded Li Qiu Sui to act as a cover and went to the bandits' den alone, causing great disturbance.The bandits were chased all the way to the border, where they regrouped and planned to make a big move so that they could stay in the border and develop their power.It was particularly unfortunate that the houses they robbed were smuggling salt and iron, which were taboo materials and had long been watched by the border guards stationed at the border.

The two teenagers cooperated with the border guards and effortlessly captured the stolen goods on the spot, apprehended the murderer and brought out the businessman suspected of treason, thus making a great contribution.

The Li family looked at each other and listened to the brother and sister singing along like storytellers.

After a long time, Li Changshan asked aloud: "Is it because of this that Changlei and that Yufeng became Xiaoqi?"

Li Changlei nodded subconsciously and glanced at Li Qiusui.

Li Qiusui didn't blush, breathlessly smiled and said: "That should be the case, right? I was still staying in Fucheng at that time, and my second brother told me the same thing later. With such a great contribution, it is more than enough to be a Xiaoqi. Yu Yu The owner of the village personally brought his son to the house this time. Firstly, he wanted to visit our father; secondly, he also wanted to talk about his future plans. And the medicine bag, I heard that someone helped find out the whereabouts of the murderer, so I specially prepared it Yes, thank you."

The whole thing, put it this way, fits perfectly.

The Li family still worried about Li Changlei joining the army, and no one paid attention to the truth or falsehood of Li Qiusui's words.

But there was also Li Changlei, the person involved, who was dumbfounded.

If he hadn't been personally involved in the whole thing, he would have almost believed it to be true.

Li Qiusui blinked, not worried at all that her second brother would betray her.

Regarding Li Changlei joining the army, the emotions of the Li family were not as intense as before.

Li Sanzhu sighed, "Chang Lei, have you thought about it? Our family is not short of food and drink now. If you don't like studying, just stay at home and tend the crops and fruit trees with your elder brother and me. Just the fruit grove in our back mountain , it’s enough for you brothers and sisters to be wealthy and peaceful.”

"You are not young anymore, and you said that when your eldest brother gets married, it will be time to make arrangements to find you a wife. If you go to a place that takes lives like this, don't you make your father and I worry day and night? How can you do this? Is that good? You said, there is no shortage of food and drink, so what are you trying to do?" Mrs. Liu started wiping tears again as she spoke.

She couldn't understand why it was so difficult for the family to live a stable life together when there was no shortage of food and drink.

Li Changlei walked to Mrs. Liu on his knees, buried his face in his mother's knees, and choked with sobs: "Mother, it's Changlei who is unfilial. He doesn't have the reading skills of Chang'an, and he doesn't have the composure and patience of his elder brother. He also has untimely ambitions. I want to Go outside and see the big world. This is an unfilial son. Please make it a success with your father."

Li Qiusui raised his face and forced the tears that had burst out of his eyes back into his eyes.

The second brother's remarks, from beginning to end, did not mention the words of protecting the family or protecting the family.He only expressed his own selfishness, but parents who love their children have no way to refute.

Her brothers have also grown up and know how to speak and achieve their goals.

She might have a way to erase her second brother's military status.

But why can she decide other people's fate wantonly and wishfully?

Even if it was her brother who was a compatriot.

Li Qiusui did not continue to listen and left without saying a word.

The news that Li Changlei had joined the army spread quickly in Lijia Village. Within a few days, the government came down to collect military service, and the small mountain village that was usually peaceful suddenly became full of uproar.
