Chapter 287 The vicious female partner escapes to farm (37) (Third update, please vote for me!)

 That evening, Li Yuanjin placed his men at the homes of Chen Mancang, Shi Feng and others.

Xu Yin saw him leaving with a bag containing a change of clothes. She thought he would not come back, so she locked the courtyard door as soon as it got dark. But I saw him holding the courtyard wall with both hands and climbing over the wall easily.

“…” Xu Yin almost laughed angrily, “If there is a door, climb over the wall!”

 “It’s better to wake up the third sister.”

　　　…” Is this thing still reasonable?

 When I entered the house and saw what he was wearing, I realized that he had gone to Dongshan'ao hot springs.

“Why do you think my wife looks at me like this? Is it because I went to take a bath without asking my wife to come with me? Or does my wife think I’m handsome and can’t take my eyes away?”

　　　…”

She dared to say that in the small world she had traveled through before, all the "his" faces combined were not as thick-skinned as this one.

During dinner, Li Yuanjin learned from his third sister that Erlang had become a disciple of a down-and-out scholar from the next town. There were many people at that time, so he didn't ask much. At this moment, he came to Xu Yin and said, "Sorry for bothering me, Madam!" Big brother, I didn’t think of sending my younger brother to study.”

Xu Yin looked at him with a smile: "Don't worry, I'm using the money you deposited with me."

Li Yuanjin laughed: "If you give it to the lady, it belongs to the lady. You can spend it how you want."

Xu Yin pondered: "What if I use it to buy land and hills?"

“Which land and which mountain? I’ll help you take a look while I take a bath.”

 “This mountain is right in front of me.”

 Xu Yin has had this idea for a long time.

This mountain may not look like a small Chai Mountain, but it is connected to the mountain with the bamboo forest behind it.

Since we are cultivating medicinal materials here, and medicinal materials such as ginseng are better as they age, we will definitely live here in the short term. In this case, it is better to buy the hilltop as soon as possible.

"But it doesn't matter what you want on this mountain. Why buy it?"

 “After buying it, clear the dead trees and bushes and plant tea.”

There are natural hot springs, the temperature is suitable, and currently there is plenty of rain. The soil is slightly acidic red soil, and none of the species is as beneficial as tea trees.

Li Yuanjin saw that she had an idea in her mind, scratched her head and smiled naively: "Okay! Whatever the lady says, I will listen to the lady!"

Xu Yin looked at him with a playful and complicated look: "Aren't you afraid that I will give your bag of money to Huo Huoguang?"

“The fact that my wife is willing to spend my money shows that she doesn’t treat me as an outsider. I’m not even happy about it.”

 “…”This idiot!

 Seeing that he was so supportive of his career, Xu Yin got up early the next day and cooked a sumptuous breakfast for him and his men.

Each person is given a rice ball with egg and meat floss that can only be held with both hands, two tea eggs marinated all night, and a bowl of spicy soup.

Those who came to serve as soldiers were often from poor families. Rich families could be exempted from corvee service by paying a small sum of money.

So not to mention enjoying it, I have never seen such a sumptuous breakfast.

 Everyone had tears in their eyes.

Li Yuanjin kicked them: "Why don't you take it and eat it! How long do you want my wife to serve it!"

The soldiers came back to their senses, raised their sleeves to wipe their eyes, thanked Xu Yin, took it and ate it.

"Delicious!"

“It turns out rice **** can be so delicious! I’ve only ever eaten wild vegetable rice **** made by my mother! They were dry and tasteless at all!”

 “This egg is different from the one I ate yesterday.”

 “What’s different? It’s fragrant and delicious! It’s so delicious!”

Xu Yin smiled and said: "It's really different. Yesterday's was five-spice braised eggs, and today's is tea eggs. The ingredients used in cooking are different."

Li Yuanjin got tired of eating and pulled her towards the kitchen: "Madam, you haven't eaten yet! Don't worry about them!"

“…”Are you so polite in front of soldiers?

 “I’m still hungry too.”

　　Okay! Xu Yin brought him his breakfast and rewarded him with a soft-boiled egg.

“Third sister likes soft-boiled eggs the most. I’ll boil one for you too. Try it.”

Li Yuanjin said that he was a man and didn’t like sweets, but when he tasted it, it was so delicious that he almost swallowed his tongue.

 But he did not forget Xu Yin: "Madam, what about you? Don't you have one yourself?"

“I can cook it anytime I want. This is specially cooked for you, it’s a double yolk egg.”

　　"Madam, you are so kind to me! Don't worry, I will never let you down!"

　　　…”You have so many dramas!

 After a hearty breakfast, Li Yuanjin led his men and left Hope Village without looking back.

 Took away the food prepared by Xu Yin for him, as well as the fish food formula.

 Leave an order for bricks and tiles for the entire military camp.

Xu Yin waited for him to leave, then asked Chen Mancang about the procedures for buying Shantou.

"This is an ownerless mountain. If you want to buy it, just go to the Yamen to apply for a title deed. But why are you buying this mountain? If you want to chop wood, you can cut it now? What are you spending the money to buy it for?"

 Xu Yin said it was useful.

 She wanted to keep it a secret for the time being until she found the tea saplings from this dynasty.

“Uncle Mancang, the bamboo mountain behind is also ownerless, right?”

"I've been here for so long, but I haven't heard of an owner. If you really want to buy a mountain, Zhushan is really better. Fortunately, there are bamboos. You can dig some bamboo shoots to eat all year round."

Xu Yin inquired about the procedures for buying the mountain, asked Chen Mancang to take care of the house, then put on men's clothes and went out with her third sister.

Let’s go to the next town to see Erlang first. Everything was fine with him, but when he saw the two of them, his eyes turned red and he said he missed home.

Xu Yin comforted him: "Your eldest brother came back two days ago. He was very happy to hear that you were studying with Master Wen. He even said that he would reward you with a silver coin next time he sees you."

Erlang's eyes almost popped out of his head when he heard this: "Brother, did he really say that? But where did he get the money?"

"The military salary he has saved! I want him to be reluctant to give it to me, but he insists on leaving it to you, Erlang!"

Erlang beamed with joy: "Sister-in-law, please tell my elder brother that I will study hard! When the time comes, I will take the exam and take you all to live in the capital!"

 Xu Yin: “…”

I thought to myself, Erlang, you are repaying a favor with an enemy.

After seeing Erlang, Xu Yin rented a carriage in the next town and took her third sister straight to the county town.

“Sister-in-law, where are we going?” Third sister opened the carriage curtain, quietly looked outside, and asked curiously, blinking her dark almond-shaped eyes.

 “Are you not happy to take you to the county town?”

 Xu Yin pinched her cheeks that finally bulged out a little, and she was no longer a skinny little black girl.

"Happy!"

It was almost dusk when we arrived in the county town. Xu Yin found an inn to stay at, and went to the Yamen to apply for the land deed the next morning.

 “Brother Hero!”

The yamen officer recognized her and said in surprise: "Brother, why are you in the city? Is there something wrong?"

They have all heard that the county magistrate has to go up to the peak to appreciate him, and he will be promoted to another prefecture and become the prefect in the next year. Most of this is due to Xu Yingxiong.

Xu Yin also just knew that the county magistrate was about to be promoted. She was glad that she came to buy the mountain now, in case the new county magistrate who was transferred a year later was not easy to get along with.

 So, she made slight adjustments to her original plan: in addition to Chaishan and Zhushan, she also bought a large area of ​​wasteland around it.
