Chapter 257 The General Is Still Alive

Chapter 257 The General Is Still Alive (3)
"Thank God! The general and his wife are not dead! God must have opened his eyes!" Li Shi's wife cried with joy, and the remaining two children also laughed happily.

They have suffered for so long, and now they finally see hope!

In the end, the family didn't pack much. They were very poor and had nothing to take, so they packed some change of clothes. Li Shi's son brought his little bow, and Li Shi's wife brought a bow that had been treasured for a long time. The jade bracelet that had been reluctant to sell all this time, the family went outside the house and boarded the spacious carriage.

When Li Shi was looking outside, he only noticed He Lancheng and Mingji. Now that he entered the carriage, he realized that the carriage was not only spacious but also very comfortable. As soon as their family got in, Mingji opened the hidden compartment and took out some meat. Treat them with dried fruit.Not to mention the seductive fragrance that emanates, just the appearance, they are all as delicate and beautiful as fairy delicacies, they are too ashamed to dare to speak.

Li Shi's son, Li Chuang, swallowed his saliva and stared straight at the food on the plate. He wanted to eat, but he didn't dare to move. In the end, he only looked at his parents beseechingly.

Mingji felt sad when she saw it, and suddenly her motherhood broke out, she took the initiative to push the plate in front of Li Shi's family, and said softly: "Eat it at ease, it's just a small thing, you can eat as much as you want."

Li Chuang couldn't hold back, and finally reached out to pick up the silver fork, forked a piece of jerky and put it in his mouth.Jerky is different from ordinary jerky, and I don’t know what to cook it with. It is neither dry nor hard, and it is very delicious, which makes people’s index fingers move.

"General, ma'am, how have you been doing all these years?" Li Shi asked proactively, remembering the tragedy of Helan's family, he couldn't help but feel sad.

"We have a good life, but you have suffered a lot." He Lancheng didn't intend to tell him the hardships he had suffered these years, so he just vaguely pasted the past, and then assured him: "I was the one who made you suffer back then, but don't worry , since I'm still alive, I won't let you suffer any more."

Li Shi smiled heartily. "As long as I follow the general, even if I eat chaff and swallow vegetables, I don't feel bitter!"

He Lancheng also laughed. "Don't worry, I won't let you eat chaff! Li Shi, I remember that you were addicted to alcohol and often stole alcohol behind my back. I just prepared a jar of good wine, and we will get drunk today One match!"

After he finished speaking, he opened the secret compartment and took out a jug of wine. As soon as the wine was taken out, Li Shi could smell the fragrance of wine overflowing from it.Immediately, he was so greedy that he swallowed his saliva non-stop, and praised incessantly: "Good wine! Good wine!"

Seeing his greedy appearance, his wife felt ashamed and sad at the same time.Since Li Shi was dismissed, they came to this Yangliu town, and Li Shi hardly touched a drop of alcohol.The family is often too poor to afford food, so how can there be money to buy wine?

He Lancheng patted the seal open, fetched two large bowls, poured the wine into them, and pushed them in front of Li Shi.Li Shi could only smell the sweet aroma of wine, which passed through his nasal cavity into his limbs and bones, and immediately made him feel very refreshed.Picking up the bowl and smelling it carefully, he could only feel the fragrance of bamboo leaves in the fragrance. Li Shi was shocked, staring at the clear liquid in the bowl in disbelief, and said in a trembling voice: "This... this can't be... ...Zhuyeqing from Juxianlou, right?"

He Lancheng laughed immediately and said, "Oh? You also know Zhuyeqing in Juxianlou?" Thinking that the owner of Juxianlou is his own daughter, He Lancheng was immediately proud.

Li Shi chuckled. "I've heard it said, and I've always wanted to try it, but..." He frowned suddenly, "General, I heard that Zhuyeqing wine is very expensive. Gold! This..." He looked at the wine bowl in front of him in embarrassment, staring at his eyes, how much gold does this cost?
He Lancheng laughed proudly, waved his hands, and said proudly: "Don't worry, this wine is my own, drink whatever you want!"

"Own?" Li Shi didn't dare to think that Juxianlou was opened by He Lancheng, so he only guessed: "General, did you brew this wine yourself?"

Li Shi was curious. He had long heard that Juxianlou had a unique method of brewing wine.
They left Yangliu Town happily all the way, but they didn't know that someone trotted all the way to the mayor's house after they left, and reported to the mayor in detail.

"You said that Li Shi's family was picked up? Did you see what the people in the carriage looked like?" the mayor asked with a terribly gloomy face.

"The people in the carriage didn't come out all the time, and the younger one couldn't see it, but from Li Shi's appearance, it seemed that he was very respectful to the people in the carriage, and he even called himself a "subordinate."

The mayor was shocked when he heard it. "What? He called himself "subordinate"? Did you read that right?"

"The villain is definitely not mistaken!" The visitor said swearingly.

"How? How? Could it be him? No, it's impossible, it can't be him, he's already dead!" The mayor was startled, his expression changed a few times, and he walked around the room with his hands behind his back. .

"Master, what's the matter?" the visitor asked worriedly.

"Okay, it's none of your business here, you go down." The mayor sent him out, but his heart was shaking.Thinking of that terrible possibility, he panicked, and finally decided to write a letter to tell that person his guess.

He found the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and hurriedly wrote the letter. Before he could do it, there was a loud noise at the door. The mayor glared at him displeasedly, and with a sharp look, the mayor, who had always been lawless, suddenly trembled.

The mayor was startled at first, and then he felt that he should have nothing to do with him, so he asked heartlessly: "Father, are you okay? Why is this expression? Who offended you again?" Walked in and found a chair sit down.

The mayor glared at him displeased, a little resentful that iron could not be made into steel, why did he give birth to such a worthless son?Because he was not pleasing to the eye, the mayor's tone became cold. "What are you doing here?" There was even some disgust in his tone.

The young master of the mayor didn't hear it, and instead brazenly filed a complaint. "Father, you don't know, that Li Shi, he is getting more and more unruly! I went to the door to ask for a marriage, and he didn't agree, but he kicked me out and almost killed me! Dad, back then If it weren't for your kindness to take him in, his family would have starved to death long ago, and now, isn't it ungrateful to repay your kindness with revenge?"

"Isn't it just a woman who can make you so worthless?" The mayor said disdainfully, remembering that Li Shi's family had left, he continued: "Don't worry, he won't continue to be presumptuous in the future."

The young master of the mayor was mistaken, thinking that the mayor taught Li Shi a lesson for him, and he was pleasantly surprised: "Father, what? You helped me teach him? I knew that as long as you go out, nothing will happen in the world." It can't be done!"
