Chapter 83 Do You Think It's Possible
"I'm going to make some beauty cream or something."

Su Ling looked at the herbs in her hand, hesitated for a moment, "Are you going to let us sell them?"

"Um, can you?"

"can."

"It seems that I don't have to worry about your father's level." Li Erya said with a smile. In Su Yue's view, she may be a bit unscrupulous in messing around.

"Don't worry, I will convince my father." Su Ling patted her chest and promised.

"Why are you so cute?" Li Erya couldn't help pinching her face, seeing that she didn't like it, she quickly let go of her hand, and said awkwardly, "I forgot that you have grown up."

"It's good to know." Su Ling pretended to be angry and said.

Inside, Shen Nanzhou and Su Yue finished chatting, and planned to visit friends and go to the bookstore. Li Erya waited in Huichun Hall, and it was not until the afternoon that Shen Nanzhou came back in a hurry.

In Huichun hall, Li Eryazheng, Li Zongzheng and Li Zongxi were all waiting for him to come back.

Li Zongzheng and the others almost couldn't wait any longer. Fortunately, Shen Nanzhou came back, and they went home together in a carriage.

He might not be able to return to the village even after dark, but with Li Zongzheng and the others there, Li Zongzheng helped people drive the carriage, and Shen Nanzhou sat in the carriage.

Li Zongxi wanted to go to the city to sell his prey, but he didn't get much money for the sale, and most of the money was taken away by the officials, leaving only a few pennies in his hand.

Li Zongzheng went to the city to find out about military service. It was the first time he had encountered military service in Lizheng for many years, but this time it was a little different from what he had learned.

It's just that he had no relatives and no reason in the city, so he wanted to go to the yamen to ask for clarification, but he couldn't even enter the gate, so when he ran into Shen Nanzhou, he hurriedly asked for clarification.

Shen Nanzhou has been away from the officialdom for many years, and he can only know a thing or two about the affairs of the court from others. He has also heard of the mandatory military service that Li Zongzheng said.

The state of Qi is not free from internal and external worries, wars and disputes occur from time to time, and mandatory conscription is not impossible, even if Li Zongzheng said only verbal orders, it is a bit suspicious.

Thinking of the news he inquired about, Shen Nanzhou's heart sank, but he didn't show it.

If he guessed right, this military service is probably not compulsory. If he is selected for ordinary conscription, he should have the benefit of being exempt from taxes, instead of having to spend his own money to buy weapons and other things like he said now.

And if you don't want to be a soldier, you can spend money to eliminate disasters. There are so many people in Taichuan County, and this is a lot of money. Shen Nanzhou can only say that he is not familiar with the new county magistrate, and he doesn't know much about conscription.

"Hey, if you want to get three taels of silver, who has three taels of silver?" Li Zongzheng sighed. They just had a better life, but it was still very difficult to take out three taels of silver all at once.

"Have the other villages been notified?" Li Erya asked.

"I never asked about this." Li Zongzheng was stunned for a moment.

"I have to ask." Li Erya thought of her natal family, three taels of money would kill her mother, but her father's going to be a soldier would also kill her mother.

She was reluctant to part with both, her mother probably would have come to kill her, she had the money but she didn't want to follow her mother's wishes in everything.

There was probably something strange about this matter, she didn't know much about it, but judging from Shen Nanzhou's reaction, she knew that it probably had something to do with the new county magistrate Zhao.

Li Erya thought of Xiao Jinnan, but he didn't know how the investigation was going. If he was there, he should be able to suppress the county magistrate Zhao.

Both Li Zongzheng and Li Zongxi were worried. When they arrived at Shen's house, they got out of the carriage and returned to Qingshui Village a little tired. Li Erya looked at their backs and secretly hoped that Xiao Jinnan would remember what she asked.

As soon as she came back, Mrs. Shen told her that her mother had been here.

"I see." Li Erya replied, see, she guessed right.

"Why don't you ask your mother to come to see you?"

"About conscription?"

"How did you know?"

"Lizheng told us everything."

"Why are you all so sad?"

Shen Nanzhou had no choice but to tell her what conscription means.

However, Mrs. Shen is not short of money these days, she didn't realize what three taels of silver means to ordinary people, and she opened her mouth in surprise after a while, "Then our family?"

"Our family may be spared." Shen Nanzhou was suddenly a little unsure, originally he was a little thankful that Mu Ci was already a scholar, and he was not required to be a soldier as usual, and Mu Yin was still young, so he didn't need to be a soldier either.

Seeing that Li Erya was also worried, Mrs. Shen comforted her that they would help raise the money from her natal family, so she didn't have to worry too much.

"The money matter is easy to solve, I was just thinking about other things." Li Erya came back to her senses and said calmly.

The matter was weird, she suffered from no channels for getting news, Shen Nanzhou might have one, but he didn't know about it either, firstly, someone kept this matter under wraps, and secondly, his news channels were also lagging behind.

Li Erya thought of Huang Xingye. As a businessman, he might be able to get some gossip. There was also the Hu family. Behind the Hu family was a promoted Sun Youxi.

It's just because of Shen Qingrou's matter that Shen Nanzhou and his wife don't like dealing with the Hu family, and she can't force them, if she can see Huang Xingye, she will ask.

At this point, the family no longer talked about conscription, and Li Erya taught Mrs. Shen and Shen Qingrou to apply cucumbers to their faces first. As for the beauty cream, it still takes time to make it.

Originally, she planned to come back to make beauty cream tomorrow morning, but her mother also came to find her early in the morning, saying that her father didn't come back all night to collect money.

"Have you asked Li Zheng and the others to help find it?"

"No."

"Then is it useful for you to come to me?"

"Your father should come home by himself."

Mrs. Li San said awkwardly, because Li Youtian said yesterday that she would not come back last night and planned to look for big goods in the mountains. If she couldn't come back before noon, let her go find someone.

But she couldn't sit still, thinking of coming to find her daughter first, the three liang of silver can't be let out by their family, that is also her father, Mrs. Li San is planning to complain and sell misery, who would have thought that her daughter would not eat at all Her way.

And Li Erya's reaction when she saw her probably guessed that her father might be in danger, but it wasn't too dangerous. After all, spending the night in the mountains was a mixed blessing for a hunter.

It was true that her mother came to get the money, but things were still in the air, she didn't want to hand over the money to her mother so soon, and if she gave it to her, there would be no return.

Li Erya unceremoniously asked her to go home first, and she would inquire about the matter of military service first before making a decision.

"What are you asking for? You just watch your father go to die cruelly?" Mrs. Li San was angry, but in the Shen family she could only suppress her anger.

"You came to me suddenly and asked me to take out three taels of silver, do you think it's possible?" Li Erya was speechless.
