Chapter 10 Look Up
After discussing the matter of redemption with Li Tong, Wei Tu decided not to delay too long after careful consideration.

He was worried that things would change later.

According to what Caixia said, the master Li Yaozu wanted to use Diantian's autumn harvest to threaten his wife and him, forcing him and Xinghua to submit.

The wheat harvest in Qingshan County is within ten days.

After a long time, if Li Yaozu threatened...then there would be no friendship between master and servant.

If he mentions ransom again at that time, Li Yaozu will definitely try every means to stop him, even at the expense of framing him, to get rid of him, the "scourge" of Li's house.

And redeem yourself in advance.

Although the money on the body is still worse.

But now that the master and servant have not broken their faces, Li Yaozu will feel jealous when he sees that he is "strong and strong", and there is a high probability that he will cancel the original plan and will not make enemies with him.

night.

Weitu told Xinghua about his plan and asked for Xinghua's opinion.

"You are my man, and I will obey you." Xinghua replied.

Xinghua knows that her eyelids are thin, so she never argues with Weitu on the general direction.

"Your words are enough." Weitu nodded, and told Xinghua to return to Li's house later when she went to the county town to buy vegetables tomorrow.

"If there is a change, you should leave the county as soon as possible and hide outside the city..."

he exhorted.

"Brother Wei, you want to..." Xinghua's heart was shocked when she heard this, and she suddenly thought of something bad.

But as soon as her words came out of her throat, she stopped again, hummed lightly, pulled her legs out of the quilt, and began to tidy up the house in the dark.

"When you leave, don't pull me down."

After the lights went out, the couple embraced each other and fell asleep. In the middle of the night, Xinghua pulled Weitu's eyes away and said this in a low voice.

Weitu's sleepy spirit, after being woken up, was in a daze for a while.

In a daze, he heard Xinghua's words clearly, but he didn't know how to answer Xinghua.

At that time, in the panic, he couldn't guarantee whether he would bring a burden, which would implicate himself to death.

"I want you to cook for me. I'm used to your food. It's not good to eat other people's food..." Weitu thought for a long time, and said something that was not very ironic.

however.

The voice fell.

Xinghua fell asleep, and the breath she exhaled was hot and hot.

……

The next day, morning.

Weitu got up early as usual, and he took care of his work, feeding the horses, and breaking up the hay accumulated in the past few days one by one.

He even filled the bucket with clear water, leaving no gaps.

After work.

Wei Tu watched Xinghua walk out of the front door of Li's house with a basket, and then he sat on the stone pier and waited for a while until the sun burned his back unbearably, then got up and walked to the inner house.

The outsider was not allowed to enter the inner house without the master's order.

Wei Tu remembered his "duty", he stood at the door of the inner house, and invited the maids who came and went to come in and report to Li Tong.

soon.

The servant girl took Li Tong's order and led Wei Tu into the living room.

"Brother Wei, what is your business with me? But what is missing at home? Or are you and Xinghua at odds?" Li Tong frowned and glanced at Wei Tu standing in the center of the hall.

Li Tong's voice was very calm, without a hint of condescension, but anyone who was familiar with Li Tong knew that it was deliberately suppressing his anger and dissatisfaction.

When the male servant enters the inner house, if there is something to say directly in the outer house, it will be conveyed through the maidservant, and there is no need to enter the inner house for "discussion".

From Li Tong's point of view, Wei Tu's entry into the inner house today is out of order.

No rules no standards.

As the mistress, Li Tong wanted to suppress any "symptoms" that might cause turmoil in Li's house, and trampled to death.

Li Tongshi sipped tea, the hot tea made her lips and tongue ache, but she still maintained the demeanor of the mistress, looking at Wei Tu coldly, waiting for Wei Tu's answer.

However, Wei Tu's opening made Li Tong's unexpected.

Wei Tu bowed and said, "Grandma, I came to the inner house this time to redeem my body. I plan to take the martial arts exam next year."

After the voice fell, the room was completely silent, the atmosphere froze to freezing point, and a needle could be heard.

Li Tongshi was stunned.

Including the serving maids standing behind Li Tongshi, they were also shocked.

In the house, it should be said that the family is a big family, and the last thing the servants can mention is the body deed.

This is a no-no.

No one mentioned the contract of prostitution, and the servants of the outer house and the inner house can perform their respective duties, as if they were born like this, rather than imposed by the day after tomorrow.

"Brother Wei, you have been in the Li family for some years, and the Li family should treat you well." Li Tong's expression remained unchanged, but the fingers hidden in his sleeves were clenched tightly at the corners of the sleeves.

The redemption of servants often appeared in rich families with restless homes. She had been in charge of the internal affairs of Li's house for so many years, and she didn't want to have a taint, a taint that other women in the county could criticize.

"The Li residence has given me the grace of life."

Wei Tu nodded and replied.

The hall faces south, under the shadow of the sun, Li Tong's complexion softened slightly.

"But the wages are not enough?"

Her tone is gentle.

At this time, Li Tong remembered that Weitu's wages had not increased for a long time. It should be because of the wage problem, which caused Weitu to remind her to redeem himself.

"No, Grandma." Wei Tu shook his head firmly, "Grandma, as I said just now, I plan to redeem myself to take the martial arts exam next year."

Wei Tu was puzzled, he clearly spoke clearly when he spoke just now, but why didn't Li Tongshi hear the second half of his sentence.

"Martial arts exam?"

These four words appeared again in Li Tongshi's mind. After this time, Li Tongshi finally understood the meaning of these four words.

Li Tong raised her eyes and carefully examined the slightly dark-skinned young man in front of her. After looking at it for a while, she said, "You look up."

Ever since she entered the living room, she saw that Wei Tu's head had been lowered and never raised.

In other words, since Li Zhai bought Wei Tu, a servant, she never saw Wei Tu raise his head.

She has always been very satisfied with Weitu's observance of the rules, but today, she feels that she has miscalculated.

The person who has always been the most well-behaved, turned out to be the most restless in his bones, and even thought of going to redeem himself, take the martial arts exam, and leave the Li family.

"Yes, grandma." Wei Tu raised his head according to the order, and looked at Li's housewife in front of him.

"Why do you want to take the martial arts exam? It's not easy to take the martial arts exam..." After seeing Wei Tu's appearance, Li Tong felt relieved for a while, and asked warmly.

Wei Tu's face is not the strange face of "Long Zhun Long Yan" she saw in the book.On the contrary, Wei Tu's appearance is still somewhat ugly, and he can't tell the difference from a rural farmer.

"Grandma doesn't know, but Wei Tu got a copy of health-preserving exercises from my second aunt two years ago. After these two years of practice, his strength has increased a lot, and he has already met the requirements for taking part in the martial arts exam..."

Wei Tu thought for a moment, and then told all about his practice of health preservation skills, and mentioned his second aunt Wei Hong by the way.
