Chapter 99
【Hero save beauty】
On the day of Awakening of Insects, the sky was about to light up, and there was rumbling thunder outside, followed by a drizzle of rustling rain.
The second sister Ye was standing under the eaves with Da Lang's wife and talking softly.
"It didn't rain that day, and I was still beating drums in my heart. Fortunately, Jingzhe was not delayed. I think it will be another good year."
"Exactly. Later, we will also open up the vegetable garden and plant some melons, fruits and lentils, which will be used for chewing in summer and autumn."
"As it should be."
"..."
Fat Tuan flew in from the outside, his body was cool and wet from the rain, "Fanfan, it's raining! Go out and watch the rain!"
Ye Fan couldn't wait any longer, put on his shoes, put on his clothes, and rushed into the rain without wearing the bamboo hat.
Fortunately, the rain in spring was not heavy, and it drenched on the face like cow hair, and it dried up with a single hand.
The three little gray rabbits caught last year happened to have one male and two females, inbreeding, and gave birth to two litters of small ones.
Xu Shi eats and drinks every day, and when they are mature, even if they are not locked in the cowshed, these fluffy little guys don't plan to escape.
At this time, three big furballs followed by a string of small furballs were jumping around in the yard looking for water to drink. The gray fur was covered with thin raindrops, which was very pleasing.
Ye Fan teased each of them one by one, and the little guys kicked their legs in shock. Then he giggled and ran out the door.
Second Sister Ye came out of the kitchen and told her urgently, "I'll have breakfast later, don't go far away."
Ye Fan replied without turning his head: "Got it!"
"Put on the coir raincoat, don't get wet."
"Not afraid!"
"..."
The dialogue between you and me is like an adult telling a child.
Not to mention the rain is light, even if the rain is heavy, Ye Fan doesn't want to wear coir raincoats, because he is afraid of being ugly-isn't this a child's idea?
Clumps of tender grass sprouted in the valley, and small bags emerged from the mushroom garden that had been silent for a whole winter.
Spring has really come.
Fat Tuan lay on Ye Fan's head, with his thin arms stretched out, trying to protect him from the rain, but in fact, not even a single feather of rain could stop him.
The little guy also imitated Second Sister Ye's tone, softly exhorting: "Fanfan, the slope is wet, be careful of slipping and falling."
As soon as the words fell, Ye Fan slipped away and fell on his ass.
"You little crow." Ye Wan raised his hand and poked the little fat lump on top of his head.
Fat Tuan covered his little face and smiled grinningly.
Ye Fan's hands and buttocks were covered with mud, but he didn't rush to clean it up. Instead, he looked around guiltily and found no one around, so he was relieved.
The pain of falling is small, but the humiliation is big.
As everyone knows, from the moment he walked out of the room, his every move has fallen into the eyes of others.
Li Yao couldn't help but laugh when he saw his guilty and cute appearance.
Mr. Mo held a folding fan and smiled all over his face, "Mr. Xiao Lang is really innocent and lovable."
The little friend was praised, and Master Chang'an Hou smiled even deeper.
Mr. Mo watched with his eyes, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart - no matter who he is, a prince, a general, a god, a ghost, if he encounters such a word, he will inevitably fall into the dust.
In fact, he had already seen Li Yao's feelings for Ye Fan. Although he was surprised, he didn't intend to stop it, because he knew in his heart that it would be useless to stop it.
Fortunately, it is Mr. Ye Xiaolang, this honest, upright young man with a huge treasure in his arms.
Mr. Mo thought clearly. For his followers, having such a person standing beside Li Yao was much more important than letting him have ten or eight "heirs".
Standing behind Li Yao, Mr. Mo looked at the young boy running happily in the valley, his eyes were full of relief.
Li Yao frowned slightly, and stood in front of him.
"How is Liao coffin?"
Mr. Mo sighed secretly, and looked away, "The people who followed reported that Liao Ju had found out what Shen Xiong had done years ago, and at this time he was planning to take advantage of the spring hunting day to sue the government."
Li Yao raised his eyebrows, "He is upright."
Mr. Mo sighed. After all, he lacked experience. Although he was upright, he was not transparent.
He also didn't think about it, if it wasn't for the approval of the officials, how could the Khitan soldiers come to Hedong without anyone noticing?Suing Shen Xiong in front of the government is tantamount to throwing himself into a trap.
"If Master Hou thinks it is useful, his subordinates will try their best to keep him."
"Save it."
Regardless of whether it is available or not, at least such a person cannot be allowed to die in vain.
***
After all, Ye Fan couldn't eat breakfast at home.
This guy was picking mushrooms in the rain on the slope, and his face was covered with mud. Li Yao finally couldn't stand it anymore, and carried him back with his own hands.
He took a shower, changed his clothes, and wiped his wet hair.
Ye Fan enjoyed Master Chang'anhou's service with peace of mind, and rolled onto his big bed when he was done, holding plum blossom crisps in one hand and honey water in the other, eating and drinking.
Seeing the finely crumbs of pastry falling on the bed, Li Yao raised the corners of his mouth sadly.
——Let’s do it, when the time is right, let’s settle the ledger together.
—on this bed.
Ye Fan shivered for no reason, um, it's a little cold.
He pulled the satin brocade quilt on the head of the bed casually, arched and arched like a worm, finally wrapped himself up, and finally felt relieved.
"That's right, it's raining, shouldn't it be time to plant trees?"
"Well, the ship will leave the pier tomorrow to deliver goods to the East China Sea, and I will come back looking for plantain roots."
Li Yao stretched out his arms and straightened the quilt to make him more comfortable - even if he disliked it, he still wanted to pamper him.
"Where's the pear tree?"
Ye Fan threw the kettle to him, pulled the quilt under his chin, and blinked his bright black eyes.
Li Yao choked for breath and lost his rhythm.
The voice of the exit was still calm, "There is a village in the lower reaches of the Jinjiang River called Lishutai. The whole village sells pears for a living. There is an old pear tree in the village that has never withered for a thousand years. It will bear fruit regardless of drought or flood..."
"So amazing?" Ye Fan's eyes lit up, "Should we dig up that thousand-year-old pear tree?"
Li Yao paused, and then said again, "If Fanfan wants it."
"Hmm..." Ye Fan wrinkled his nose, "Forget it. The thousand-year-old pear tree, I don't know how precious it is. It's not good for us to come here suddenly."
More than a baby?To be exact, it is worshiped as a god.
The thousand-year-old tree is a sacred tree in the eyes of the villagers, which can bless them for generations.
If Ye Fan wants it, Li Yao will do it, but tragedies like Yushuzhuang will inevitably happen again.
The king came out of nowhere and yelled at Ye Fan: "That tree is so good, you want it!"
"Fanfan, you can't have it. If you want it, Daddy will become a tyrant." Fat Tuan's voice was not loud, but his attitude was firm.
However, what is a tyrant?
The king was very angry, "Little fool, don't spoil my good deed!"
Fat Tuan didn't dare to confront it head-on, so he had to fly to Ye Fan's side cowardly, pursing his mouth and not saying a word.
After it was over, I still felt that it was not safe enough, so I drilled and drilled, and got under the quilt, covering it from head to toe, only looking up with a pair of round eyes with my little head up, looking at it in fear.
Ye Fan touched the little guy, the bun on the top of his head trembled, and he smiled sullenly.
The king snorted, hung in front of him, and continued to seduce: "That tree is thick and big, and it is full of snow-white words. If you don't believe me—"
A big hand suddenly reached out, grabbed it, and then flicked it.
With a sound of "嗖", the palm-sized flying saucer burst out of the window and turned into a small dot in the sky.
"Oh—Host, you, you, you who value sex over friends! You wait, I must bind..."
The following words disappeared into the sky.
Although this guy with bad intentions was dealt with, Ye Fan's curiosity was successfully aroused.
"How tall is a thousand-year-old pear tree? Is it thicker than the mouth of a well? Is the canopy as big as a house?"
Ye Fan imagined how the tree would blossom and bear fruit... Wow!
I really want to see it!
Li Yao looked at the little stars in his eyes and couldn't help laughing, "I want to see it, let's go together in the future."
"it is good!"
Ye Fan cheered and circled his ex-boyfriend's neck, sending a resounding kiss.
***
On the first day of February, the boatmen gathered at the wharf to pray to the gods, and with the sound of propellers splashing, the big boat left the wharf and headed east.
The propeller was made by Li Yao combined with modern memory to draw blueprints, and he was a skilled craftsman. He has been experimenting with small boats during the first month, and this is the first time it is used on a large boat.
Not to mention, it not only saves people and effort, but also doubles the speed.
The boat was loaded with dried fungus seeds, barrels of melon seed oil, and dried flour fruit powder. This time it was not for gift giving, but for doing business with Langya Kingdom in the East China Sea.
Years ago, King Langya had placed the order, and Li Yao only asked someone to deliver it now, naturally to whet the other party's appetite and negotiate a good price.
Although they are friends, they each have wives and children to support, so it's impossible not to play tricks.
Ye Fan watched the big boat go farther and farther, and what he thought about was the banana tree, the big lobster, and the big smooth and round pearls, all of which Li Yao promised him in exchange.
The ex-boyfriend has a big boat, which is great!
The next day, the ex-boyfriend of "You Dachuan" made time to take him to Lishutai to see the thousand-year-old pear trees, and bought a few small ones on the way back, planting them in front of the house.
Obviously he can ride a horse, but Ye Fan insists on rowing a boat.
The red dates and the white deer followed along the river bank, running and playing for a while, without worrying about getting lost.
Fat Tuan and Da Wang were flying in the sky, needless to say, Fat Tuan "desperately" pulled Da Wang out again.
These two little guys are very interesting.
Fat Tuan looks soft and cute, but in reality he is hardworking and magnanimous. He doesn't mind the king's poisonous tongue and arrogance, and always happily runs back and forth to serve it.
The king has a hard shell and high strength, but his mind is sensitive and fragile. He is obviously kind and soft-hearted, so he insists on showing a vicious look.
The Fat Tuan King is both afraid and respectful, but once it comes to Ye Fan, the little guy will take a firm stand against Ye Fan without hesitation, very principled.
Faced with its "betrayal", the king was so angry at that time, and then he was coaxed by the fat group softly and sticky countless times.
It's like when a high IQ meets a high EQ, no matter how one looks at one's own children.
Ye Fan sat on the bow and bumped Li Yao's arm, "Your Majesty is pretty good, why don't you want to bind with him?"
Because I don’t want to follow the old path of my previous life.
Li Yao suppressed the depression in his heart, pretending to be relaxed and said: "Do you want to be a queen?"
"Follow where, don't change the subject." Ye Fan angrily elbowed him.
Ye Fan looked at the small flying saucer in the sky, and asked in a low voice: "I heard from Fat Tuan that if the king has been unable to bind the host, he has to leave this plane as soon as possible, is that true?"
Li Yao nodded.
Since seeing the king, his memories of his previous life have gradually recovered. The more he remembered, the more panic he felt. He would never experience such a day again, let alone let Ye Fan experience it.
"It might be a good thing for it to leave here and find a new host."
"However, after getting along for so long, I am a little bit reluctant."
"The emperor's upgrade system is indeed the tyrant's training system. Are you willing to let me bind?"
Uh……
Ye Fan glanced at the king, then at Li Yao, "It's better...don't do it!"
Li Yao smiled, it really was his young boy, so cowardly.
Ye Fan stared, "You're laughing at me!"
"No."
"You're just kidding me!"
"Not really."
"Don't admit it? Believe it or not, I will push you into the water?"
"Plop—" The loud sound of falling into the water came from not far away.
The little lady cried out in panic: "Help me! My little brother fell into the water!"
Yes, Ye Fan didn't push Li Yao off, but a seven or eight year old boy fell from the boat ahead.
The little guy was clamoring to go fishing just now, but now he was splashing in the water, and the cold water of the river seemed to be submerged.
Ye Fan's first reaction was to jump into the water - he can swim, and his skills are good, and the person who fell into the water was a child, so it is impossible for him to refuse to save him.
Li Yao grabbed him and said in a deep voice, "Don't worry, the siblings are well dressed, I have a boatman to rescue them..."
Before he finished speaking, there was another heavy sound.
Ye Fan's eyes widened, he couldn't believe it - the little lady was also pushed down!
In front of them, the villain who pushed people didn't have the slightest fear, and even looked at them viciously, like a warning or a demonstration.
Ye Fan grabbed Li Yao's hand nervously, "First, save people first..."
The two siblings are still splashing in the water!
Li Yao snapped his fingers, and two figures jumped out of the cabin, slid into the river without making a sound, and swam towards the siblings.
The two of them are very good at swimming, they swam for a long time without floating to the surface to take a breath, so they didn't alarm the villains on that boat.
Just like that, they swam quietly to the side, each wrapped their arms around the necks of the two siblings, then quickly turned around and pulled towards their own boat.
The people over there noticed something strange and yelled viciously: "Where did you come from, you dare to take care of the Jiang family's affairs?"
Ye Fanteng stood up abruptly, crossed his hips and cursed back: "You are the bastard! No, the bastard doesn't want to give birth to a kid like you!"
He is obviously an elegant and handsome young gentleman, but what he said made him half-deadly angry.
The man wanted to scold him again, another one came out from the cabin, he was a little older, with a gloomy face, better dressed than the previous one, but he didn't look like the owner, but more like a manager or something.
"Who is Your Excellency?"
Ye Fan snorted coldly, "I'm afraid that if you are destined to inquire, you may not know."
After finishing speaking, I couldn't help giving myself a thumbs up-the golden sentence is undoubtedly!
At this time, the two brothers and sisters had been rescued, they were drenched and shivering from the cold, Chang Ting took them into the cabin to change clothes and keep warm.
According to Li Yao's habit, when the opponent pushes people into the water, he already regards them as dead, and he will never waste his tongue and scold them.
Unexpectedly, Ye Fan liked it and seemed very happy.Master Chang'an Hou doesn't mind leaving their lives temporarily, so that the children can have a good time.
Mo Qing and Mo Bai stood in front of Ye Fan, one on the left and the other on the right, observing calmly, guarding against the other party's sudden shooting of hidden weapons or arrows.
The way the group dressed made the other party pay attention to it.
"Who the hell are you?"
"A person who can make you pay for evil."
There was a wind blowing on the river, and it was quite cold. Ye Fan didn't want to say any more, so he dragged Li Yao back to the cabin.
There is no need for him to deal with the subsequent matters, and Mo Qing and Mo Bai will naturally deal with them.
In the cabin, the little lady was huddled on the couch, her whole body was dripping wet, and her clothes hadn't been changed.
The child next to him closed his eyes and his face was pale. He took off his wet clothes and was wrapped in a quilt. Luckily, he was breathing normally. He just fainted from fright.
Seeing Ye Fan come in, the little lady finally recovered from her panic, cried and knelt down, "Thank you, Mr. Xiaolang, for saving your life. I can't repay you for your great kindness. I just ask—"
"and many more!"
Ye Fan automatically made up the following words, "promise with your body" or something, he is not blessed to accept it.
The little lady trembled in shock, looked at him timidly, and then looked at Li Yao next to her.
"Neither can he!"
Alarm bells were ringing in Ye Fan's mind, and he blocked his ex-boyfriend like a little wolf cub protecting his food—he raised his arms if he was not tall enough, and he didn't allow him to look at him anyway.
The little lady shrank back in a daze, her wet hair sticking to her face, she looked pitiful.
Ye Fan couldn't bear it, and said awkwardly: "You should change your clothes first, and you will be rescued after a long time, so as not to freeze again."
The little lady bit her lip, as if she had something to hide.
Ye Fan wrinkled his face, isn't he still thinking about making a promise with his body?
Li Yao winked at Changting.
Changting, Li Yao's long follower, stepped forward and explained the situation in a gentle tone.
"Little lady, don't panic. My master is the Marquis of Chang'an, who was appointed by the official family. He is currently living in Hanjialing. This is my young man. If you have any grievances, you can speak up."
When the little lady heard their identities, she was first surprised, then overjoyed, tears streaming down her face.
Li Yao put his hands behind his back, expressionless.
Ye Fan touched his nose, unable to bear it.
Chang Ting glanced at his master's expression, and said again: "Young lady, you might as well change your clothes first and take care of yourself, after all...there is still a younger brother who needs your care."
Chang Ting's voice was gentle and gentle, imperceptibly giving birth to a soothing force.
The little lady touched the child's pale face, and although she was still crying, she nodded firmly.
Where is life important for male and female defense?
Even if she doesn't care about her own life, she still has to care about her younger brother's life, after all, she only has this one real relative.
Ye Fan and the others exited the cabin, and Changting found a set of clean clothes, although they were men's, but fortunately no one wore them, they were originally prepared for Ye Fan, but now they are given to the little lady.
When we meet again, the little lady has already tidied up.
"Thank you for saving my life." In such a predicament, he is still polite, which shows his upbringing.
She raised her head slightly, glanced at Ye Fan, then quickly lowered her head, and talked about herself softly.
In fact, needless to say, everyone already knows about it.The people on the other side of the boat were restrained by Mo Qing and Mo Bai, and before they could do anything, they were so frightened that they made a move.
Coincidentally, this little lady's ancestral home was in Lishutai, Pu County, and she accompanied her parents to do business in Jinzhou since she was a child. Not long ago, her parents died for some reason, so she was escorted back to her hometown by her servants, intending to join her uncle.
The siblings were helpless, and they never thought that the obedient servant turned out to be a greedy wolf.After all, it's just for the word "money".
These people saw that the siblings had no mother to help, and the uncle was an illiterate farmer, so they planned to kill him quietly, make up a random reason, and give him some money so that he would not dare to make trouble.
The only way is "people are doing it, the sky is watching", this is why the sky can't see it, let them meet Ye Fan and Li Yao.
In front of the hidden guards of the Li family, their little plots and tricks couldn't even last half a cup of tea. They signed, painted and pressed their fingerprints, and it was done in minutes.
Mo Qing and Mo Bai obeyed Li Yao's order and directly sent him to the Pu County government office.
It is a capital crime to conspire a master with a slave, once the badge of the Marquis Mansion of Chang'an is brought out, the interrogation is just a formality, and the county magistrate of Pu County immediately pronounces the sentence - he is not respecting the badge of the Marquis Mansion, but the people of Li Yao Taste.
As for his relatives and accomplices in Jinzhou, Li Yao's people were watching, and none of them could escape.
The county magistrate of Pu County personally sent Mo Qing and Mo Bai out of the county government office, holding his sleeves and sighing:
"The boy surnamed Tan is so lucky. He is fortunate to work with Lord Hou. He has noodles and sunflowers, but he has a face. Alas, why don't you and I have such luck?"
The county magistrate next to him cleared his throat—do you want to tell the county magistrate that Pu County also had a chance to be assigned to the Marquis of Chang'an, but the Marquis didn't want it.
Want to say?
The county magistrate blew his beard and stared, "You should say something, don't you know that old people are anxious?"
The county magistrate obediently "squeaked".
So, it's better not to talk about it, in case he comes out in a hurry, Da Jin will lose another good official.
***
Let's talk about Ye Fan.
The so-called "help people to the end, send the Buddha to the west", anyway, they were going to Lishutai, so they sent the siblings back home by the way.
In order to save time, Li Yao sent someone to notify Jiang Erlang, the uncle of Jiang's siblings, in advance.
According to the person who reported the letter, Jiang Erlang heard that his nephew and niece were almost killed by evil slaves, so he slapped himself more than a dozen times until his face was swollen. Come forward and stop.
Jiang Erlang hated and felt ashamed, dragged his mother-in-law, and went to the riverside to wait early.
Seeing the two siblings, the Jiang family couple cried together.
This isn't really acting.
For one thing, the couple had no children, and Jiang Erlang was also very affectionate, and he refused to stop his wife and remarry. Being able to adopt a nephew and niece was a blessing in heaven for them.
Secondly, Jiang Dalang took good care of his brothers when he was alive, Jiang Dasister was also gentle and reasonable, and the two brothers had a very strong relationship, so they really cared for their children.
The blame is that the evil servant coaxed Jiang Erlang into not going to Jinzhou to pick him up, but just looking forward to it at home.
"My son, if I knew this earlier, I should pick it up myself if I say anything!"
"Your uncle is so stupid that he listened to the bullshit of the evil servant!"
The Jiang family siblings also cried.
Especially the little lady, who has already passed the age of Jiji, and she is also a literate and sensible person. She was already depressed because of the death of her parents, and when she encountered this incident again, she couldn't help crying until her heart broke.
Even outsiders feel uncomfortable.
Ye Fan tugged at Li Yao's sleeve, and said sullenly: "Let's not look at the pear tree today, come back next time."
Li Yao naturally followed him.
This happened to be overheard by the person next to him, who was none other than the village chief of Lishutai, who was the cousin of Jiang's siblings after all.
Village head Jiang has a warm and considerate temper. He knew that Ye Fan and the others had helped his family, and when he heard that they wanted to see King Lishu, he hurriedly invited them.
Ye Fan couldn't refuse, but thought that since he came anyway, he would go and have a look.
Jiang Erlang only cared about his nephews and nieces, and ignored them for a while.
Ye Fan didn't blame him.
It was the little lady surnamed Jiang who looked at Ye Fan deliberately, her wet red eyes filled with gratitude.
Ye Fan smiled at her, originally wanted to say a word or two of comfort, but was pulled away by Li Yao.
Village head Jiang didn't know their identities, and he didn't ask specifically. Speaking of which, there are eight or no princes and grandsons who come to his village to look at this old pear tree every year, and he is used to it.
"Usually, people come only when the flowers are blooming. There really isn't one as early as the two gentlemen."
"We live close, so we'll come and have a look when we have nothing to do. By the way, we'll find out if there are any pear trees for sale."
"This makes sense. If you want to transplant fruit trees, it must be at this time. No matter how late it is, when the tree buds come out, it will not survive."
Village Chief Jiang chuckled, and asked casually, "Mr. Lang said that he is close. Could it be that he is also from Pu County?"
"No, we belong to Daning."
"Hey, it's actually Daning!" When the other party heard this, he immediately showed surprise and a little bit of envy, "I heard that since you have the Marquis of Chang'an, you are living a prosperous life!"
"Yes!" Ye Fan pursed his smile and bumped into Li Yao's arm.
Li Yao rubbed the top of his loose hair with a smile in his eyes.
"Haha, the two of you have such a good relationship."
Village head Jiang didn't know what they were laughing at, he just laughed along with him habitually, then lowered his voice, and asked mysteriously, "Have you seen Lord Hou himself?"
"I've seen it!" Ye Fan smiled.
"Is it really as heroic as the legend says?"
Ye Fan almost couldn't hold back when he thought of that "legend".
"I didn't know there was a 'Legend'?" He raised his voice and asked curiously.
"Lang Jun doesn't know?"
"Appreciate further details."
Village Chief Jiang cleared his throat, and said solemnly: "It is said that the Marquis of Chang'an is eight feet tall, has copper teeth, palms as big as palm-leaf fans, and body as strong as a calf. Every time you stomp your feet, the ground will shake three times..."
"puff--"
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Ye Fan couldn't hold it back, and laughed and fell on the "big cow" who was "eight feet tall and had a mouthful of copper teeth" next to him.
