When Li Hao regained consciousness again, it was already dawn.
He was thrown on his horse all night. As soon as he opened his eyes, he started to vomit profusely and choked with snot and tears.
This is uncomfortable...
Suddenly, he realized something and quickly closed his eyes and said: "Hero, spare my life. I am from Jinling and have a lot of wealth. If you want to make money..."
"I don't care about money." Li Qing found it interesting and deliberately said in a rough voice.
"Then you..." Li Hao felt cold and said hurriedly: "Hero, money can make all the difference. You don't care about money because you don't have enough money. My family is rich. We are engaged in maritime business. We have several super-large merchant ships." As for the ship, one hundred thousand taels of silver is enough?"
This is too diarrhea... Li Qing was speechless, "Look who I am?"
"Don't dare to look at it. I understand the rules on the road. Don't worry, I won't take revenge." Li Hao said hurriedly: "The good guy probably can't take away the one hundred thousand taels of silver. How about changing it to gold? You tell me. Son, I can send a letter to you."
Barabara...
Li Qing was upset by the noise and pressed his neck, "Shut up!" gōΠb.ōγg
"Spare your life, spare your life..." Li Hao screamed, heartbroken, "I'm only sixteen, and I haven't even married a wife yet. If I die like this, the Lord of Hell won't even accept him..."
"Hey~" Li Qing lost his patience, stopped his horse, and grabbed him by the collar, "Look who I am?"
Li Hao closed his eyes, tilted his head, and cried, "Hero, please spare my life, I'm still young..."
"If you don't open your eyes, I will kill you now!!"
Li Hao trembled and hurriedly opened his eyes. When he saw it was Li Qing, he was surprised and happy, and then... furious.
"You did it on purpose, right? Huh?" Li Hao's lungs almost exploded with anger. "Do you know how I spent last night? You know..."
"It's so noisy..." Li Qing was angry, waved his hand and gave him two big mouths, and then continued to walk on his horse.
Li Hao opened and closed his mouth, but couldn't make any sound. He was shocked at first, then horrified...
The man is tired and the horse is tired too. Even if the two horses are swapped, the speed is still not fast.
Until the evening, the two of them did not enter the city. Fortunately, there was a small village. Li Qing spent a tael of silver and settled in a farmer's house.
Only then did Li Hao regain his ability to speak.
Without waiting for him to speak, Li Qing said directly: "Either calm down, or get out, and if you keep forcing me to do anything, I'll slap you with a big ear-scratcher!"
"You..." Li Hao's eyes widened in anger for a moment, and then he put on a smiling face, "You are the master, how can any master care about his grandson?"
"Haha." Li Qing sneered. He couldn't tell that this guy was dissatisfied, but he didn't care about it.
"Um... Master, what you said before is right. My grandson really can't bear this hardship. Can you be merciful and treat me like a fart and let me go?" Li Hao knows well that 'people have to bow their heads when they are under the eaves', He looked down and down.
Li Qing smiled: "You can leave at any time."
"I..." Li Hao resisted his impulse and said humbly: "You have to give me some money, right? As the saying goes: a penny can stump a hero; as the saying goes: a poor family is rich..."
"Where do you come from with so many wisecracks?" Li Qing raised his hand and poked him, depriving him of his ability to speak.
Li Hao dared to be angry but could not speak. He wanted to lift the table, but was afraid of talking. That was aggrieved.
At this time, the host came in with food and said, "It's cold. You two have eaten and rest early."
It could be seen that he was still very wary of the two of them, but the temptation of the one tael of silver was too great, and the two of them were well-dressed and kind-looking, so he agreed to let them stay overnight.
"It's troublesome," Li Qing nodded and said comfortingly: "Brother, there is no need to be afraid. We will leave early tomorrow and we really can't find an inn."
"Hey, it's okay, it's okay." The old man shook his hand, smiled innocently, and walked out.
Li Qing walked to the door and locked it, turned around, walked to the table where he was lame and sat down, and said, "Come here and have something to eat."
Li Hao turned his head away with a look of disdain.
The people in the Yongqinghou Mansion all eat better than this.
No dog will eat this meal!
In fact, the food is not that bad, just a scrambled egg, cabbage fried in lard, steamed buns and rice porridge.
Of course, it stands to reason that Li Qing spent a tael of silver and the food should be better, but they came at night and the host's family did not prepare anything.
It was hard for Li Qing to ask his master to kill the laying hens.
On the way, it would be nice to have something to eat. Thinking back to when he returned to the capital from Jiaozhi, and then from the capital to Xuanda University, he almost always went hungry.
Li Qing was not used to eating whether he liked it or not. He was not the one who was hungry anyway.
Li Qing ate with gusto.
Li Hao hasn't eaten anything since noon yesterday. He felt dizzy and vomited in the morning. Coupled with the high-intensity driving, his chest is pressed against his back. If he says he's not hungry, he's lying.
Besides, Li Qing still chirped.
Seeing that the scrambled eggs were almost gone, and the four steamed buns were also gone, Li Hao knew that if he continued to hold on, he would really have nothing to eat.
He hurried forward, grabbed the last steamed bun, and took a big bite.
Then, sit down and pick up the chopsticks to pick up the food.
(╯▽╰)It smells so good~~
He held the vegetable basin with one hand and pushed hard into his mouth, taking a bite of the steamed bun from time to time. His mouth was full and the vegetables almost popped out when he pursed his lips.
Li Qing curled his lips and refused to fight with him. He sipped the rice porridge in small mouths...
Half a quarter of an hour later, Li Hao licked his lips with unfinished thoughts... not full.
"We have to go on a journey tomorrow morning. Let's rest early." Li Qing said.
Li Hao pointed to his mouth.
"...It's already here, don't bother me anymore."
"Ho ho ho..." Li Hao shook his head, indicating that he could regain his ability to speak.
"Say it first, and if you make any noise, I will make you mute."
Li Hao's heart palpitated and he nodded repeatedly.
Li Qing raised his hand to restore his ability to speak, and then walked straight towards the bed.
"Grandpa...Grandpa Li," Li Hao did not dare to speak loudly to Li Qing, and said softly: "I miss home, really..."
"My legs are on you. You can go back if you want. Can I still tie you up?"
"Then can you give me some money?" Li Hao begged with his eyes.
"No," Li Qing refused ruthlessly. "If you have the ability, go back by yourself. If you don't, just go to Baoding Mansion with me as your duty."
After a pause, he said, "With your appearance, you look like the son of a noble family. If you encounter a robber later... what do you think will happen?"
Li Hao was stunned and said hurriedly: "Then can you send me back?"
Li Qing said quietly: "Every inch of light is gold..."
"I'll buy it!" Li Hao looked like he was not short of money.
"You are really good at using my money to buy my time." Li Qing muttered and hummed: "You can wait until you make money with your own hands before you say this."
Li Hao: "..."
Until now, he still didn't understand that he was on the pirate ship, but he couldn't think about it anymore.
"Well, if God gives me a chance to start over..."
"Um?"
Li Hao was so excited that he hurriedly covered his mouth and shook his head hurriedly, indicating that he would stop pushing.
Li Qing's expression softened a little, he lay down on the bed and said calmly: "Get some rest."
"I...where should I sleep?" Li Hao looked at a small bed, with Li Qing occupying most of it. He wanted to cry but had no tears.
"Squeeze it in." Li Qing yawned, "I'll give you a chance to sleep soundly. If you don't take advantage of it, you can't blame me."
Li Hao: "..."
The quilt was not too thin, but not very warm, and the bed board underneath him was very hard, which was really uncomfortable. In addition, after the experience of the day... Li Hao tossed and turned, obviously exhausted, but couldn't sleep anyway.
"Stop tossing and turning, the heat in the bed will kill you."
"...Yes." Li Hao didn't dare to be stubborn. He straightened his body and felt even more uncomfortable...
~
"Wake up, it's time to hit the road." Li Qing patted Li Hao's face to wake him up.
After a whole night of unheated bed, it was finally warm, but it was time to leave.
Li Hao's face was filled with despair and he was on the verge of collapse.
"Master, I feel... I'm about to die." Li Hao looked hysterical, "Just let me sleep for a while."
"You've never experienced hardship, just get used to it." Li Qing urged, "Get up quickly, or I won't be polite."
Li Hao: "..."
~
After another day of traveling, Li Hao was almost exhausted. He really felt that if he continued like this, he might not survive Baoding Mansion.
However, he really didn't dare to fight with Li Qingjuan, that big mouth... hurt more than his father's beating.
His biological father was his biological father after all, but this man named Li was different. He was really capable of killing someone.
Many times, Li Hao felt that this person named Li was going to kill him.
Fortunately, when we entered the city this time, Tie Gongji was also very generous. He asked for room No. 1 in Tianzi and ordered a table of sumptuous dishes.
Li Hao had a hearty meal, took a hot bath after finishing his work, and lay on the soft bed. He was so happy that he almost cried.
But that's all.
Early the next morning, Li Qing told him that this was the last supply, and he would rush to Baoding Mansion in one go!
'Are you going to kill me? '
Li Hao dared not speak out when he was angry...
…
The sixteenth day of the first lunar month.
Baoding Prefecture.
Li Hao looked at the big characters on the city, tears of happiness welling up in his eyes. Finally... the hard days were over.
Before that, he had never thought that it would only take twelve days to go from Jinling to Baoding.
Simply... outrageous!
But he did it. Looking back on this journey, he is full of heartache, blood and tears.
"Sir, let's have a good meal, change our clothes, and then go to the Shen family, shall we?" Li Hao said, "This is business, and the way we look... we really have the demeanor of the Marquis of Yongqing."
After eating dry food for seven or eight days, his cheeks hurt badly and he wanted to eat something soft, warm, preferably with a meaty taste...
Li Qing glanced at him. The slut's oily hair was now dry and messy, like weeds. His whole body was dusty. There was a sense of vicissitudes on his childish face. He couldn't help but nodded with pleasure:
"It has definitely grown up."
Li Hao couldn't hold back, "If I drive for a few more days, I will grow into the ground."
"Hey~?"
"Wrong, wrong," Li Hao hurriedly begged for mercy and said pitifully, "Master, my grandson is hungry."
Li Qing: "...walking."
On a cold day, a big bowl of mutton soup, half a pound of mutton, and scallion pancakes... Li Hao was so delicious that he cried.
After eating and drinking, Li Hao felt warm all over. He felt better and no longer felt the cold in the north. He finally understood his father's wise words.
——Eating well and drinking well makes me miss home!
