Chapter 142 Something happened



Tang Li looked at her fleeing back, lost in thought.

Time traveler?

In this world, it is not surprising that there is Gu Ying, the reborn person, myself, the person who traveled through the book, and another person who traveled through time.

But if a time traveler wants to come to her to seek a sense of superiority, that's really too much.

She has no interest in playing the role of an ancient person in such an old-fashioned time-travel plot as "an idea shocks the ancients".

Tangli didn't take this time traveler seriously and went about his own business.

The next day.

A day of heavy rain.

The dark clouds weigh on people's hearts, making them feel a little depressed.

Tangli always felt that he had dreamed about something yesterday, but when he thought about it carefully, he couldn't remember anything.

That feeling made her feel uneasy, as if something was going to happen.

This mood continued until the evening, when there were knocks on the door.

Tangli was even quicker than Aunt Zhao and rushed to the door to open it. Aunt Zhao hurried over to hold an umbrella for her.

When Tang Li opened the door, he saw two people wearing straw raincoats outside. Both of them were covered in water, and their shoes were completely soaked and mixed with mud. Tang Li quickly recognized them.

"Village Chief Li, Uncle Li? Come in quickly!"

Tangli hurriedly welcomed the two of them in.

After entering the main hall, Li Youcai and Uncle Li took off their raincoats. Both of them had anxious expressions on their faces, especially Uncle Li, who was completely at a loss.

"Is something wrong with Lanhua?" Tang Li asked hurriedly.

These two people came here so late at night, something big must have happened!

"It's Zhu Cheng. Zhu Cheng was captured by the government as a conscripted man!" Li Youcai said anxiously.

"Brother Li, please be more clear and speak slowly." Tang Li said.

Li Youcai then slowly told the story.

Zhu Cheng went to Qinzhou City with his shop assistant, the buyer. They encountered a conscription operation and all the young men were captured. The buyer, being older, escaped. After returning, he quickly told the story to Zhang, the shopkeeper. Zhang, also frightened, quickly told Zhu Cheng's family about it.

"Lanhua is pregnant and was frightened when she heard about this. My wife is at home with her, and I... I don't know what to do. I just thought of you, Xiaotang..." Uncle Li's dry and wrinkled face wrinkled into a ball, and he was completely at a loss.

What sin had he committed? His son went to the army and there was no news for decades. No one knew where he died, and now his grandson-in-law was arrested...

The old man, who has always been strong-willed and concerned about his reputation, is now in tears.

Tang Li's face looked very unhappy.

She thought of the day when Zhu Cheng was so excited when he knew he was going to be a father.

Lanhua'er is pregnant, if anything happens to Zhu Cheng...

Manager Zhang was next door, and Tangli asked Aunt Zhao to go next door and call him over.

Shopkeeper Zhang arrived quickly, and seeing Uncle Li, he felt a bit guilty. Although he hadn't expected this outcome, he was still doing things for Uncle Li after all...

However, he was only a small shopkeeper after all, so how could he control the imperial court's conscription? He could only send a lot of silver to Zhu Cheng's family.

"The government is conscripting soldiers. Any able-bodied man captured is drafted into the military. If you dare to escape, you'll be treated as a deserter and die." Shopkeeper Zhang said, "We can only hope this kid is lucky enough to earn military merit and return home in glory."

Uncle Li's face turned pale, knowing that the second half of Manager Zhang's words were purely for comfort.

Take Lanhua'er's father, for example. This old guy was different from others since he was young. He wanted to go to school and martial arts school. Even after getting married, he couldn't be tied down. He ran off to join the army. People like him didn't come back alive, let alone a skinny guy like Zhu Cheng...

It's impossible to even think about it.

Uncle Li sobbed, "Lanhua'er's life was so miserable. Why didn't I, an old man, die? Anyway, I've lived enough!"

"It's getting late now. Let's think of a solution tomorrow. Brother Li, Uncle Li, you should go take a shower and have some sleep first."

There was hot water in the pot, so Tang Li took out two sets of Wei Qing's clothes and gave them to the two of them to change into.

Although we said we slept, no one actually slept well that night.

Tangli also thought about it all night.

Qinzhou City belongs to Qinzhou County and is no longer within the scope of Qinghe County. It takes a day to get there. How can I find someone in an unfamiliar place?

After thinking about it, Tang Li thought of Bai Muyang. He had business dealings with him in Qinzhou City, so he might be familiar with him.

So, early the next morning, Tang Li went to Bai Mansion and met Bai Muyang.

Bai Muyang was dressed in white fox fur, exuding the aura of a noble gentleman. He listened to Tang Li finish his words.

He said gently, "I do know someone in Qinzhou City who should be able to help."

Tang Li's eyes lit up, and he felt a little embarrassed. He tugged at Bai Muyang's sleeve and said, "Brother, can you write me a letter to contact me?"

"I just happen to be going to Qinzhou City. Let's go together." Bai Muyang said.

Tang Li nodded. It would be even better if her brother went.

"Go pack your things. The round trip will take at least two or three days. Make arrangements at home and bring more clothes. Qinzhou City is much colder than here. I'll ask someone to arrange a carriage." Bai Muyang said.

Tangli nodded and ran back to pack his things.

As soon as Tang Li left, Qi Yin, who had been standing silently by the side, couldn't help but ask, "Master, are you going to Qinzhou City for something? How come I didn't know?"

Bai Muyang glanced at Qi Yin expressionlessly. Qi Yin seemed to understand something and quickly shut his mouth.

Tangli returned home and told Aunt Zhao that he was going on a long journey, which might take three or four days.

Aunt Zhao was startled: "Why did you take so long?"

"My brother will go with me, don't worry." Tang Li said.

When Aunt Zhao heard that Bai Muyang was going, she breathed a sigh of relief. She had met Mr. Bai several times and he was a very knowledgeable and reliable man.

"Take good care of the two children at home. If you have any problems, go to Xie Mansion to find Wei Qing." Tang Li said.

Aunt Zhao nodded: "Madam, don't worry."

Tangli gave the two children a few more instructions, and the children responded obediently.

Uncle Li and Li Youcai were standing in the yard. Neither of them had slept well, and their eyelids were drooping.

"Uncle Li, I'm going to Qinzhou City to see if there's any way to get Zhu Cheng out. You go back and look after Lan Hua'er. She's pregnant, so comfort her and let her relax and think more about the baby in her belly."

Miss Tang actually wants to go to Qinzhou City in person!

Uncle Li's eyes turned red and he knelt down directly in front of Tang Li.

He came here because he really had no other options. Seeing Lanhua'er's desperate expression, he felt so miserable that he said he came to Tangli, saying that Tangli had a solution. In Lanhua'er's eyes, Tangli was omnipotent. This gave Lanhua'er a little hope.

He never thought that Tangli would go to Qinzhou City for Zhu Cheng.

Even if they are blood relatives, it is very good to be able to achieve this.

How can there be such a good person in this world?

It is truly a blessing for them to know Tangli.

He could not repay the kindness in this life, so he could only work like a slave in the next life.
