Three hundred taels, just hearing this number is enough to make Song Qing's body ache.
But for the sake of his only son, Song Qing had to accept it at this time.
After taking a few official servants home, Song Qing finally scraped together only 180 taels of silver.
Finally, seeing that Song Qing really couldn't get it together, several officials graciously took the money and left with the ten people Song Qing sent.
After sending the person away and returning home, Song Qing sat down on the chair and burst into tears.
"One hundred and eighty taels, one hundred and eighty taels are just gone."
The accountant next to him said: "Master, it's more than one hundred and eighty taels. Including the money for hiring someone to replace me, plus what I gave before, the total is two hundred and sixty taels."
Upon hearing this number, Song Qing felt a cramp in his chest.
"It's all because of Li Yongnian. If it hadn't been for him, I wouldn't have been asked to pay so much money."
The accountant thought to himself, if you hadn't listened to Song Qiangyi and Li Banxian, wouldn't things have reached this point?
You are just shooting yourself in the foot.
Song Qiangyi also came out and said: "That is, if it weren't for Li Yongnian, how could things have reached this point? It's all his fault. Dad, not only do we want our house and land back, but we also have to find a way to get our house and land back." Get back the lost money from Li Yongnian."
Song Qing said with a face full of pain: "Maybe he can get his house and land back, but he can't get these two hundred taels of silver back. Where can he get two hundred taels of silver now?"
Song Qiangyi thought for a moment and said, "Even if we can't get it all back, we still have to get some of it back. By the way, Dad, Liu Yuanyuan is actually very good-looking. If we can find a way to sell him to a brothel, maybe It can be sold at a good price.”
"I saw it yesterday. She looks very good when dressed up. Plus she knows a lot, maybe she can really make up for our shortfall of two hundred taels of silver."
Hearing what Song Qiangyi said, Song Qing also thought of Liu Yuanyuan's current appearance, and if Liu Yuanyuan looked so good after dressing up, Leng Rushuang and Wang Nan should be good at it.
"But will Li Yongnian agree?"
Song Qiangyi said: "I won't agree if I just rob him. If it's not easy to report to the official, we might as well ask him to sign a contract to sell his wife while he is sick. In this way, it will be justifiable."
Song Qing asked: "But how can you tell when he is sick? When is he not sick?"
Song Qiangyi scratched his head.
"Well... how about we invite him to our home? Then we can observe more and find out the pattern, or send someone to keep an eye on him and take out the contract and ask him to put his fingerprints on it whenever there is a chance."
Song Qing couldn't think of a good way now, so he had to agree.
"Then you go ahead and make arrangements, but you have to be careful not to let him get beaten."
When Li Yongnian was planning what to eat at night, he heard someone knocking on the door, so he asked Zhang Yi to open the door.
After discovering that it was Song Qiangyi, Zhang Yi closed the door immediately.
"You are not welcome, Master."
Song Qiangyi hurriedly stood against the door and said with a smile: "Zhang Yi, I don't have any ill intentions in coming this time. I'm here to invite Li Yongnian to my house for dinner."
Zhang Yi said: "I told you that the young master does not welcome you."
When he heard about the meal, Li Yongnian smiled and said, "Zhang Yi, let them in."
Zhang Yi hesitated for a moment and then opened the door.
Song Qiangyi limped into the room and couldn't help but glance at Liu Yuanyuan.
Then he smiled at Li Yongnian and said: "Cousin, I was wrong before. I thought about it for a long time when I went back. I feel that we are still a family, and we always have to resolve misunderstandings, so I asked someone to make some delicious dishes. Brother, go over here and treat it as if I am making amends and apologies to you, and ask my cousin to honor you."
Li Yongnian smiled and said, "What delicious food have you made?"
Song Qiangyi was overjoyed when he saw Li Yongnian directly asking him what delicious food he had cooked.
"Roast chicken, roast duck, they're all pretty good anyway."
Li Yongnian asked: "Oh? Are there so many delicious foods?"
"Of course, since it's an apology, it's natural to show sincerity."
Seeing that Li Yongnian was about to agree, Leng Rushuang walked out with a cold face.
"Husband, you can't promise him, because he doesn't know what evil he is holding back."
Wang Nan also said: "Husband, whatever you want to eat, we will make it for you. We don't lack a bite for him."
Seeing what the two people said, Song Qiangyi hurriedly said: "What are you talking about? Whether there is a shortage or not is one thing, but an apology is another."
After speaking, Song Qiangyi hurriedly added: "Cousin, you are a general, you can't listen to women, right?"
Li Yongnian nodded.
"Yes, I am a general. I must make my own decisions in everything I do."
Song Qiangyi didn't expect Li Yongnian to be so easy to deceive, so he hurriedly gave a thumbs up.
"Yes, this is the attitude a general should have."
Li Yongnian chuckled, and the muscle memory on his face forced out a silly smile.
"Okay, Zhang Yi, take good care of Sister Yuanyuan and the others at home and don't let them run around at night. I'll go have a nice meal with my cousin."
Leng Rushuang was about to speak, but Wang Nan hurriedly held her back and shook her head.
It was obvious that in Wang Nan's eyes, it was better not to confront Li Yongnian at this time.
Following Song Qiangyi to the gate, Li Yongnian turned around and told Zhang Yi to take care of Leng Rushuang and others. He stuck out his tongue at Leng Rushuang and made a face, and then left with Song Qiangyi.
Leng Rushuang looked at Wang Nan with a confused face.
"Little girl, what did your husband mean just now?"
Wang Nan was also a little strange and shook her head.
"Maybe your husband is not ill, but just has his own thoughts?"
"I hope so."
Li Yongnian followed Song Qiangyi to the Song family's house, arranged for someone to cook, and then took Li Yongnian to the backyard.
Li Yongnian asked: "What are you going to do, cousin?"
Song Qiangyi smiled and said, "Don't you like being a general the most? I'll show you the place where I practice martial arts."
Li Yongnian said in surprise: "You still practice martial arts?"
Song Qiangyi smiled and said: "That's natural. After all, I also want to be a general. You and I are the same in this regard."
When he came to the backyard and looked at the wooden sticks on the old shelf, Li Yongnian was speechless. This was a training ground specially prepared for him.
Picking up a wooden stick, Song Qiangyi asked with a smile: "Cousin, what do you think of my Overlord Spear?"
Li Yongnian suppressed his laughter and said: "It's amazing. It looks like the Overlord's gun at first glance."
Song Qiangyi was stunned, thought about this sentence carefully, and then smiled.
"Yes, this is the Overlord's main gun. Take a look at this again."
After speaking, Song Qiangyi picked up a worn pot lid.
"What do you think of this shield?"
Li Yongnian smiled: "At first glance, even the Overlord Spear can't pierce the shield."
Song Qiangyi was stunned again, smiled and gave a thumbs up and said: "My cousin is very knowledgeable. Yes, this is called the Shield that cannot be penetrated by the Overlord's Spear."
