Everyone was driven away by the servants, and the other belongings were carried by the servants. Li Yingying walked over, straddling Li Xu and Li Qi on her left and right.
The new house is at the easternmost end. Because there is a small garden, it is in the easternmost yard and has the best sunlight.
By the time they arrived, the house had been cleared out.
There are six rooms, one for Li and one for Li.
Li Dajun and Li Yingying each had a room. Li Yingying liked sunshine, so she chose the room with the largest window.
After settling Li Dajun down, the family began to clean up the new house.
Haha~ The kitchen in the new house is bigger than the original main house.
For a moment, Li Xu and Li Qi walked around the new house, feeling like they were in a dream.
It's so unreal. Yesterday he was on the verge of death, and today he became the 'most honorable person' in the servants' room.
The job also changed.
Li Xu's job is purchasing and distribution. It's not tiring, and his monthly salary is more than eight times what he earned before.
Li Xin distributes the laundry done by his wife to each room, and runs errands every afternoon.
The steward also said that Li Dajun was replaced by a personal guard like Chen Wei from a warehouse mover.
The old couple confirmed again and again that Li Yingying did not trade her life for wealth before they began to appreciate the new house.
It was three quarters past afternoon when everything was cleaned up and the family sat together to eat.
Li Dajun woke up when he took the anti-inflammatory medicine at noon. He was very weak and fell asleep again soon. He didn't know that he had moved to a new house.
After dinner, Li Yingying prepared to look for Li Zhengwei.
"Knock~knock~knock~" There was a rapid knock on the door.
Li Yingying opened the door, it was Taohong.
Taohong rushed over with big tears in her eyes.
"Yingying, I heard about you as soon as I got back. I went to the old house but couldn't find you. They said you moved here."
Li Yingying let go of Taohong and saw that she looked nervous, probably because they were too familiar with each other. She could imagine what Li Yingying had experienced in the past two days.
"It's okay, it was a misunderstanding. I helped the young master, so she allowed me these."
Li Yingying spread her hands towards the new house.
"Help? What can you do to help the young master?"
Taohong still looked unconvinced. She knew best what she had.
"It's a coincidence. I'm just about to go to the young master to ask for something. You go home and rest first.
Anyway, we are very close to each other now."
Taohong nodded heavily, and the worried expression disappeared.
After saying goodbye to Taohong, Li Yingying hurried to the study. He was afraid that Li Zhengwei would get anxious and come to urge him again.
In the county magistrate's study
In the middle of the study, a middle-aged man with a potbelly, his eyes sparkling under his calm expression, asked his son, "Zheng'er, is this what you thought?"
This is Magistrate Li of Changfeng Town. He was born as a top scholar in the imperial examination, but due to his lack of background, he has remained a county magistrate all these years.
There is no place to display all my talents.
He is very disappointed with his son's lack of ambition and just hopes that his son can live a peaceful life.
Some time ago, a landslide occurred in the countryside under Changfeng Town. The prefect issued a strict order, requiring a solution to be given within five days.
I thought hard but couldn't come up with anything, but my son gave me an effective method.
"Dad, I saw you were so worried about this that you couldn't even eat, so I looked through books and scriptures and found this method."
"Where's the book?"
"I can't find where I put it. I just thought it was good at the time, so I wrote it down."
Magistrate Li gave his son a long look and asked, "What about that river dredging thing you were thinking about?"
Li Zhengwei was so nervous when he heard his father ask this that he said, "I was just thinking, Dad, give me an hour, not half an hour."
Li Zhengwei immediately changed his words when he saw the look in his father's eyes.
During the quarter of an hour he spent in his father's study, Li Zhengwei felt like a year had passed.
He took a deep breath and walked out of his father's study.
The servant at the door immediately whispered in Li Yingying's ear that she had been in the study for half a quarter of an hour.
Li Zhengwei immediately walked towards his yard.
As soon as I entered the study, I saw Li Yingying eating snacks and drinking tea leisurely.
And not long ago, he was still being "lectured" by his father.
Li Zhengwei, feeling mentally unbalanced, said with displeasure, "Li Yingying, have you thought about the rest?"
"Pen and paper."
Li Zhengwei immediately sat down at his desk, waiting to begin.
"The blocked river channel was blown up with gunpowder, and then the debris was removed by manpower."
"The fields were irrigated and drainage channels were dug."
Li Yingying took out a drawing from her sleeve. She had taken the time to buy paper and pen from the mall and drew it.
The archaeology department has encountered too many canals, and she knows all their structures.
After Li Zhengwei finished taking notes, he looked up and asked, "Some people said before that gunpowder explodes, but it turns out that gunpowder will not explode once it comes into contact with water."
Li Yingying had a puzzled expression. "I've already thought of it. I have waterproof bags. I can pack a few more, find some that are good at water resistance, and place them at the bottom of the blocked stone."
Li Zhengwei nodded repeatedly, "Where is the bag?"
"This bag is very expensive. You can't take it for free. I'm very poor."
Li Yingying's eyes rolled around. "I don't want money either. Just give me that bottle. I like it very much."
Li Yingying pointed at a white jade bottle on the shelf. Li Zhengwei's mouth twitched. She really knows how to pick!
"Go get the bag." The matter was of great importance, so he didn't dare to delay.
Li Zhengwei changed his previous playboy lifestyle because this matter was related to his father's official position and his own glory.
Li Yingying turned around and walked out the door, taking a few steps forward in a pretentious manner.
I opened the mall when no one was around, and in case it wasn't enough, I bought a few more large plastic bags.
After giving the plastic bag to Li Zhengwei, he quickly handed the white jade bottle to Li Yingying and went to take credit for the plan.
Li Yingying held the bag in front of her.
[Beep! A Jin Dynasty white jade bottle, valued at 1,153 taels]
"sell."
Clicking on the mall page, the balance in the upper left corner kept increasing, and there was still 1,543 taels.
In the afternoon, Li Yingying planned to go out for a walk with Taohong.
Li Yingying, feeling happy, walked towards Taohong's house.
As soon as I walked into the servants' quarters, I saw Taohong standing at the intersection with an anxious look on her face.
"Yingying, you're back. Something happened."
Li Yingying looked at Taohong and asked hurriedly, "What's going on?"
"As soon as you left, Manager Zhao came looking for trouble, saying that thirty taels of silver were left behind when they moved yesterday, and your family took it."
"Let's talk while we walk." Li Yingying pulled Taohong and ran home.
