Chapter 37 Everything Starts From Scratch

In Liangyan, a 13-year-old needs to avoid suspicion.So Cheng Xue asked Shopkeeper Hao to open another room next to the house for easy care.

He planned to let Li Hui live with him, who would have thought that this guy would come back drunk.

When Cheng Xue saw the person being helped up by Master Gong, she was stunned.You must know that he is very measured and never drinks himself like this.

"Daughter-in-law—hehe, I'm back." After Li Hui finished speaking, he turned his head and said, "Thank you, Master Gong, let's get up early and leave tomorrow."

Then, as if he had no bones, he directly hung himself on Cheng Xue.If it weren't for Yan Yixin's sharp eyes to help, both of them would have fallen at this moment.

"How much did you drink?" Cheng Xue was completely speechless.

"Not much. I just came back after sending Yang Chong and Lao Sun home. I'm sober."

Li Hui stood up straight, then staggered towards the bed, still humming a ditty.

Simply humming the tune, Cheng Xue would go crazy if she sang the lyrics.

"Master Gong, thank you, when shall we leave tomorrow?"

"No hurry, he wakes up and starts again. My home is in Shushan Town, as long as I can go back tomorrow."

"Okay, okay, please trouble Master Gong."

While talking, he sent people downstairs, and sent Yan Yixin to the opposite door.

"I wanted to let your Uncle Li live with you, but do you dare to sleep by yourself?"

Yan Yixin nodded, "Auntie dare, but I'm not sleepy now, I'll take care of Uncle Li with you."

"I don't need you, take a good rest, don't think about anything, sleep until dawn. Leave here tomorrow, start everything from scratch, study hard with your Uncle Li, and make him happy when he visits your father's grave in high school in the future. "

"Well, I listen to my aunt."

Cheng Xue smiled and patted his shoulder, and left the room.

It's raining outside, the door is closed and it's raining overnight, and I don't know if the road conditions will be better tomorrow.

Until now, she was dumbfounded.It never occurred to them that while saving Yan Yixin, they would also have something to do with County Magistrate Pan.As long as Pan Yongzhang is still in office here, they are considered to have a backer.Once Li Hui's poisoning is revealed, the murderer will not feel better.

After fetching a basin of water and returning to the house, Li Hui was already lying on the bed in his coat and fell asleep.There was still a red deed from a shop on Shunhua Street next to his pillow, but he hadn't forgotten the business.

Simply wipe him off, and lie outside the bed with his clothes closed.The white noise of the rain quickly made her fall asleep, and she vaguely felt him sticking close to her again. It had been like this for the past two days, and she was used to it.

It rained all night in autumn, and although it cleared up the next day, the temperature dropped significantly.

Cheng Xue went upstairs after boiling the medicine, saw that Yan Yixin was already up, and told him to wear more.Fortunately, he had all his clothes ready yesterday, otherwise he would have to catch a cold.

After returning to the room, Li Hui had already woken up. He probably knew that he had made a mistake last night. He didn't say a word when he took the medicine, and he didn't ask for candy.

"Give."

Looking at the maltose in her hand, Li Hui squeezed it with a smile and put it into his mouth.

"My daughter-in-law treats me well. I gave Yang Chong the keys to the house yesterday, and he will take care of it for us. There is also the shop on Shunhua Street. He will also help take care of it, collect rent, and give him five hundred cash every year." Just do it."

Cheng Xue had no objection after hearing this, so she leaned forward and asked in a low voice:
"Did you talk any nonsense before you parted from them last night? Or sang something?"

"Singing? No."

"Think about it carefully." Cheng Xue worried, "You came back yesterday and hummed "Dongfeng Po". Although you didn't sing the lyrics, it was enough to scare me half to death."

Li Hui frowned, recalled seriously, then shook his head firmly and said:
"I was sober when I was in Zuixian Pavilion, and it was only when I sent them home that I got wind. I didn't trouble you last night, did I?"

"That's not true. I'm going downstairs first, you wash up quickly, breakfast is ready."

After Cheng Xue finished speaking, she went out to find Yan Yixin. If she turned around now, she could see someone's triumphant smile...

……

After breakfast, Cheng Xue took Yan Yixin to the pastry shop to buy food.

It rained all night, the carriage should not go fast, and lunch has to be settled on the road.

There are a lot of pastries just out of the pan, but there are not many samples.I bought some stuffed ones and some dried fruits, saving time on the road.

Back at the inn, the clerk who looked for them yesterday was chatting with Li Hui.

"Daughter-in-law, Brother Wang sent us back under the order of Master Pan. Master Gong has already solicited customers and left. Let's take Brother Wang's carriage."

"Ms. Li, my name is Wang Sen. The things in the car were all given to Brother Yan by Mrs. Pan. This is a gift list, please accept it with a smile."

This is the second time I have seen the ancient gift list, the first time it was brought by Guanshi Qu when he picked up Xiao Qinglin.

Cheng Xue took it with both hands, feeling the same about the cover.

"I said Brother Wang, you are wrong, why didn't you give me the gift list just now?" Li Hui was a little displeased.

Wang Sen coughed twice, set up the horse stool, and said:
"Brother Li, stop joking. I'll give you the gift list, and then you can give it to Mrs. Li. It's better not to work on you, I'll just give it to you."

"Cough...cough...cough..."

Cheng Xue didn't swallow her saliva well and choked on it.Looking at Yan Yixin, who lowered his head and got into the carriage directly, this kid must have laughed.

When she was thinking about how to fill Li Hui's low position as "head of the family", who would have thought——

"Well, you're right, don't work on me."

Cheng Xue blushed and beat him on the shoulder angrily, reminding him that enough is enough.But in the eyes of outsiders, this is their husband and wife flirting.

He bent down and got into the carriage, looked at the things in the carriage, and handed the gift list to the child.

"You count your things, and my aunt will help you."

"it is good."

Yan Yixin took the gift list and opened it, tears streaming down her face.

"What's wrong? Is something wrong?" Cheng Xue asked in a low voice.

Looking at the vigorous and powerful characters, there seems to be no problem.

Inkstones, brushes, candlesticks... are all things that are needed in daily life.

Yan Yixin wiped away her tears and replied in a low voice:

"Auntie doesn't know, these are my things at home, Uncle Pan brought all the things in my room, I never thought I could..."

"Okay, okay, your Uncle Pan loves you, it's a good thing to bring your things, don't let him down. Just cry for a while to vent, don't cry for too long."

Cheng Xue took the gift list away while talking.This stuff is too teary, so don't let him watch it.

As for the Yan family's money, presumably with Pan Yongzhang's mediation, those grandsons probably won't get their hands on it.

Just thinking about it, Li Hui suddenly said loudly——

"Yo, Master Gong, why are you back?"

"I can't go, brother Huizi, the official road is too muddy, maybe I got stuck sometime ago. I'll see if I go back in the afternoon and let it hang out in the morning."

When Li Hui heard this, he turned to look at Wang Sen. Before he could ask, he said directly:
"Don't worry, the yamen's carriage has big wheels, don't be afraid. Drive—"

Cheng Xue breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this explanation in the car.

She really misses home and misses her children...
