Not only was the rent for the house Liao Cheng lived in near a fishing village expensive, but the place was also shabby and small.
The people living near the fishing village had completely different attitudes after they settled down. Their family had to work on the farm for the village every day in exchange for two meals a day.
His wife was used to being the mistress of the house and had never done any housework. She almost burned through the kitchen while cooking potatoes, causing her to lose a lot of money and even faint from the fumes.
When the village doctor came to see Liao Cheng, he told him a shocking piece of news: the wife's health was severely damaged and she could no longer conceive.
When Liao Cheng heard that Yin Zhen and her son lived in the village ancestral hall in Yeli Village for free, and that the Zhaoping Marquis Mansion and the villagers often sent her gifts, he was tempted.
Although he once ran out of food during his exile, he took Yin Zhen's rations and verbally sent her back as a concubine, no longer a member of his Liao family, leaving her to starve.
But Liao Dabao was his son after all. They were related by blood, so how could he not acknowledge him as his father? Besides, Yin Zhen, an orphan and a widow, couldn't count on the support of the Marquis of Zhaoping's mansion for the rest of his life. Without him, how would the mother and son survive? With a few kind words and a soft gesture, it would be easy to coax Yin Zhen back.
Lord Liao thought so, so he came to Yeli Village in a lively manner.
At this time, in the side courtyard of the village shrine.
It took some time to make the mung bean cake, and it was already past the usual dinner time, but with everyone's help, the spicy hot pot was freshly baked.
Jiang Lili took out a handkerchief and wiped the weapon outside the package: "You can name it the Fire Rod!"
As Jiang Lili recounted the past, the decadent energy beneath her disappeared, and she became more and more like herself. "So you thought about it day and night, and finally designed a weapon that could concentrate the power of gunpowder. This is it!"
Jiang Lili walked out of the yard without saying anything, and her butt touched the stool next to the small table. I said to everyone at the table in a familiar way: "Let me eat, and you can show me a special skill!"
Lord Hu opened his eyes and said: Fool! I knew that decadent old man was nothing, but I didn’t expect him to be so worthless!
Everyone: ...
A pile of metal objects were scattered on the ground, turning into scrap metal. Jiang Lili only had a short iron gun handle left in her hand.
Outside the package was an object made of copper, iron and other metals. It looked like a spear and was about two feet long.
Then I saw the old man Jiang Lili sincerely handing over a thick package with both hands.
Lord Hu pointed outside the yard. The small round table had not yet been set up outside the yard. The ten or so people around the table were looking at Jiang Lili.
"This thing was developed by you during your youth. You thought about it when you were in the smelting department. Gunpowder has low power and a small range of attack, but it is difficult to kill with one blow."
Lord Hu and others quickly put down their bowls and chopsticks and ran out to see what was going on.
Lord Hu, who was serving rice, looked towards the courtyard gate and said, "Who is it? You're here so late and you're disturbing my meal."
“Dongdongdong——”
"The thing in your hand is already there. You should watch it when there are few people around. Quiet!"
Although the Xin family father and son could tell what it was, with our keen sense of smell on the battlefield, we could not determine whether it was a weapon.
Lord Hu picked up his bowl of rice and picked up a slice of marinated beef from the hot pot: "Your dish is getting cold!"
Before the copper ball was shot out, the fire rod in Jiao Qingfan's hand was shattered by the forward force of Jihe.
A woman in her eighties was rolling around in pain at the base of the wall. It was Liao Xiaobao's adoptive father Yin Zhen. My right palm was not yet bloody.
Lord Hu walked to the door as he spoke, but out of caution, you did not open the door immediately.
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. What had happened? Did Jiang Lili's gun go off accidentally and hit someone?
Many people present were frightened!
"It's you, it's you, County Magistrate!" Jiao Qingfan shouted excitedly, fearing that if he left too late, I would even eat the leftovers.
I heard a "bang" and my fire pole went off!
Lord Hu thought to himself that Jiang Lili was really in a hurry, so she opened the door quickly and leisurely.
"They think you have no merit or hard work, but you have dinner..."
Jiang Lili raised her hand and slowly knocked on the door of the side yard.
The same was true for Jiao Qingfan, who was surrounded by the wall.
Xin Cheng immediately became interested. He had never seen such a weapon before. "Jiang Lili, what kind of weapon is that in your hand? How do you use it? How powerful is it?"
Liao Cheng looked at the woman rolling on the ground in surprise: "Jiao Qing? Why is he there!"
Before I could finish my words, a wailing voice came from the other side of the wall: "Ouch, ouch, your hand!"
I came to the side door of the village temple with a thickly wrapped bundle, and was mesmerized by the fragrance wafting from outside the yard.
“Clatter, clatter—”
"Miss Jiang, you came with your pretense, he opened the door, go and definitely make him shine!"
Lord Hu nodded: "Why, he wants to show it now?"
At that time, the strong smell of spicy hot pot in the air made Jiang Lili sneeze uncontrollably.
The excitement in Lord Hu and Master Liao's hearts was extinguished in an instant. The gun I had was disposable!
It smells so good! I’ve never smelled such delicious food in the years I’ve been on the island!
In the big iron pot, various meat and vegetable dishes are mixed together, with fiery red peppers and white sesame seeds as garnish. It is so delicious and fragrant that just smelling the aroma of peppercorns and chili peppers in the air makes people swallow their saliva.
Jiang Lili stuffed the copper ball filled with gunpowder into the tube of the fire rod. I held the fire rod in my arm, facing the wall, and was about to find a target to aim at.
However, when Jiang Lili opened the mysterious package and took out the thing outside the package, Lord Hu and Master Liao remained calm.
"Ahhh—"
Marquis Zhaoping and the others were completely bewildered. What had brought the Dan'er County Magistrate here? And what was so cold about him?
Yin Zhen's face turned pale as she spoke with difficulty, "You know, when you put your hand on the edge of the wall and were about to flip over, you felt something explode!"
"Let's talk about it before dinner. You guys are eating right now."
Jiang Lili quickly took out the fire stick, stretched her legs, and made a bad pose: "Look, it's bad, you only demonstrate it once!"
Jiang Lili touched her head awkwardly. "Even though the fire gun is broken into pieces, it can still be rebuilt. I can still use it if I piece it together."
Jiang Lili lowered her voice and said, "Those people outside the young lady's courtyard are his family. They are reliable, right?"
Teacher Liao: What the hell! Big Fat took the risk of going to the US to return the product!
Lord Hu thought to himself that the name was quite domineering and fitting: "Enough of the nonsense. It's such a domineering name. Let me see the actual effect."
Bad guy, you really only demonstrated it once!
