Good luck every time

Chapter 248 Buying a Yard

Although this matter was not troublesome, it was still quite troublesome. By the time the group returned to Sanjia Village, it was already past mid-afternoon.

As soon as he entered the village, Li Ruyi was immediately surrounded by people.

Not only her, but also those who followed were surrounded.

The constable from the county government just came over to confirm Li Ruyi's identity.

Even though they all look like gossip heads when they are shown around, they all become as timid as quails when they see the police, shrinking their necks and hunching their backs, and have to hold back their farts.

The head of the village had already arrived at the county government office, and the constable came here just to have a chat with the clan leader, Li Dasheng.

Although Li Ruyi had already left the clan, Li Dasheng did not dare to act recklessly in front of the officials.

Didn’t you see that little girl dared to kill someone at the age of twelve?

She killed all the villains who massacred the village. From then on, no one in the village dared to mess with her.

The constable was just doing his routine job. After questioning Li Dasheng, he went to Li Ruyi's house to check.

By this time, Li Shiliu had also arrived.

He was so scared that he didn't sleep well last night, so he got up late today.

Li Shiliu is Li Ruyi's cousin after all, so he can handle this kind of situation.

The constable asked a few questions, confirmed the situation, wrote it down, and returned to the county government office.

This incident was also a big event in Sanjia Village.

Some people were talking about it, and someone said that Li Ruyi might have killed the wrong person, so someone from the county government came to question him.

However, this statement is untenable, and Li Ruyi is not stupid!

Now that the person has returned, the rumors have been proven false.

Li Ruyi's reputation in Sanjia Village increased several times in a short time, almost approaching that of Li Laoliu, who was not the clan leader.

Li Ruyi can't just let this matter go.

Some people congratulated her, some asked her if she wanted to buy land, some asked her how much reward she got, and some asked her what the county magistrate looked like. Wasn't it scary...

Anyone who can get out of the court unscathed must be a celebrity in not only Sanjia Village but also the surrounding villages!

Even though there are so many portraits posted at the city gate, the county has not caught a single criminal in many years.

There are many mountains and trees around here. If you hide in the deep mountains and old forests, after a few years, the appearance will change. Who can recognize each other?

Besides, the portrait may not be accurate. Everyone lives by the principle of less trouble is worse than more. Even if it looks similar, few people are willing to meddle in other people's business.

The group returned to Li's house, and the people following the donkey cart did not disperse.

Li Ruyi jumped off the donkey cart and bowed to the people around him.

"Thank you all for your support, but I'm busy today and can't entertain guests. If you are free the day after tomorrow, I will set up a few tables in the yard to celebrate. You can come and show your respect if you have nothing to do!"

After hearing what Li Ruyi said, some people felt jealous, but gifts were not accepted at such banquets, so having a free meal was also good!

The food in the village is simple and crude. If Li Ruyi could take out twenty strings of cash, it would be enough for everyone to eat their fill!

Moreover, although Li Ruyi said so, the people who came were all familiar to him, and he would not be able to bring himself to invite those who were not familiar with him.

How many shameless people can there be in a village? At most they can seat ten tables. Li Ruyi is rich now and can afford it.

"Oh, that's great, you don't even dislike us, so we must come and show our support!"

There was an enthusiastic person in the crowd who tried to smooth things over for Li Ruyi.

As soon as he opened his mouth, the people around him smiled and said nice things.

"Auntie knew from the beginning that you were no ordinary girl! As expected! To be honest... there are really few young men in our village who are better than you!"

"Yes! I said two years ago that Ruyi will have great fortune in the future!"

"..."

Li Ruyi didn't listen in one ear and out the other. She had experienced lows in Sanjia Village, so she knew how people treated her and she wouldn't lose her mind just because someone praised her a few words.

She bowed to people.

"Then we'll see you tomorrow!"

"Okay, okay, okay! Go get busy!"

"If you can be of any use to me, just speak up. Don't be shy!"

"..."

Li Ruyi smiled and nodded, lowered the threshold, and followed the donkey cart into the house.

As soon as the gate was closed, the excitement outside soon faded away.

The third child followed her like a little tail and kept chattering.

"Second sister, second sister, did you really go to court?"

"Is the court fun?"

"What does the county magistrate look like? Is he fierce? Is he like the King of Hell described by storytellers?"

"Someone came to ask you about something today. I wanted to come out to see what happened but my eldest sister wouldn't let me. It was Brother Sixteen who came out to answer correctly!"

"Second sister..."

"Second sister?"

"Second sister!"

"Second sister..."

Li Ruyi: …

She stepped into the room, which was already full of people.

Li Ershi is entertaining guests.

Li Shiwu, Li Shiliu, the village head and his eldest son moved stools and sat in the middle of the room.

My eldest sister Alaiding and my grandmother sat on the kang...

The head of the village was smiling happily at this moment.

Li Ruyi became famous, and he, as the village head, also felt proud.

"You said you would host a banquet for the villagers the day after tomorrow. Should we start preparing for it tomorrow?"

The village head knew that the other party must have something to discuss, so he was asking if he needed any help.

Of course, he also wanted to let others know that he, as the head of the village, was particularly prestigious.

You see, I can get in even though others can’t!

Li Ruyi understood what he was thinking and was happy to cooperate.

"Yes! We have to make arrangements tomorrow. I will go to the county and buy some things. I don't know if there are enough people. If not, I will let Xiaoman go to find you!"

The head of the village felt relieved after hearing this. He knew that they definitely had no shortage of people to do the work, but at this point it was just an attitude.

"Okay, this matter will have a big impact on you. You are still young, so don't be too gullible and be more cautious!"

Li Ruyi understood what the head of the village was worried about and nodded.

"Yes! I understand, but thank you for your advice, uncle. I don't have many elders. Apart from Master, there are only Grandpa Li and you. I will take everything you say to heart."

The head of the village felt sad when he heard what Li Ruyi said. Looking at Granny Ding who was sitting on the side like a statue, he decided to stop talking.

"I'm relieved that you, my child, are sensible in your actions!"

After saying that, he stood up, and Li Ruyi quickly followed suit.

"what happened?"

The head of the village thought that most of the people outside should have left, so it was a good time for him to go back, otherwise some tactless people would come up and affect Li Ruyi's performance.

"Just talk to your family. I'm going back now. If there's anything tomorrow, let someone call me."

Li Ruyi symbolically tried to persuade him to stay.

"Why are you leaving now? Stay for dinner!"

The head of the village waved his hand.

"Come on! You've been through a lot all day, and you're still injured!"

"The day after tomorrow, let's go together."

As he spoke he had already walked out.

After hearing this, Li Ruyi did not try to persuade him to stay and sent the village head and his eldest son back.

Once the village head leaves, the rest will be our own people!

Li Ruyi walked in and subconsciously glanced at Li Shiliu.

Li Shiliu was panicked. What was going on? Was the next sentence something that a non-staff member like him was not worthy of hearing?

He even breathed much more lightly, fearing that he would be driven out by Li Ruyi.

However, Li Ruyi just glanced at him.

"Master, I got more than 400 guan this time, so I feel more confident for the time being."

Granny Ding’s brows relaxed. With more than four hundred strings of cash, she could do a lot of things!

But Li Ruyi continued.

"I want to divide this money into two parts. I found a lot of weapons from those people before, but most of them were broken and tattered. I want to find someone to rebuild them. At least the four of us should have weapons that suit our needs."

Granny Ding nodded with satisfaction.

"I also have two things I can't use, I'll melt them together when the time comes!"

Li Ruyi agreed.

"it is good!"

After she finished speaking, she carefully looked at Granny Ding's expression and continued.

"I want to use the remaining money to hire a doctor to see you. A doctor cannot heal himself. I have been worried about your health."

Granny Ding blurted out her objection.

"I do not need!"

Li Ruyi took her hand.

"Master, you worry too much about us, and we want to do something for you. I feel bad watching your martial arts declining day by day."

"You are a strong man, but we, as your disciples, are not careless people either. You are my pillar of support!"

Granny Ding was somewhat touched, but she did not give in.

"I'm old now, it doesn't matter whether I get treatment or not. If I spend that money on you, my future will be much smoother."

Li Shiliu sat there, looking at his nose and his heart, feeling uncomfortable all over.

Li Shiwu and Li Ershi were very anxious.

Although Li Shiwu was not Grandma Ding's apprentice, he also learned her kung fu, so naturally he had more responsibilities.

"Master, how can the path of martial arts be smooth? How can you break through without fighting with others? And how can you be smooth if you fight with others?"

"The villain I killed yesterday was only at the third level of internal strength, much stronger than me, but I still killed him. I know it's not because of my high martial arts skills, but because of your guidance!"

"He has been exploring for his entire life, but he is not as good as me who has practiced martial arts for only one year! So, Master, you are the most important to us!"

It is a rare talent for someone who comes from a wild background to be able to reach this level on his own!

But how many geniuses are there who can truly establish their own school?

Aren’t the vast majority like Li Ruyi and that criminal?

Granny Ding felt the warmth from Li Ruyi's hand and she sighed slowly.

"I understand you're only saying these things to put my mind at ease."

Granny Ding understood Li Ruyi's thoughts. She pulled her hand out and patted the back of Li Ruyi's hand.

"But I know my injury well. It's like a jar with a leak at the bottom. No matter how much water you add to it, it's useless. The jar is broken and won't heal!"

Li Ruyi suppressed the sadness in her heart and held Grandma Ding's hand.

"That's okay. Life is about life and death. It's not just you, it's the same for me. It would be nice if there was more water!"

Granny Ding opened her mouth and advised Li Ruyi not to act on impulse.

Why waste money on her!

But Li Ruyi has made up her mind. Granny Ding has given a lot for her, and she has responsibilities and obligations to her.

It was only at this time that Li Ershi found the opportunity to speak, and he hurried to help Li Ruyi persuade Grandma Ding.

"Yes, Master, Ruyi is right. As long as it can make you feel better, we are willing to do anything!"

Granny Ding sighed.

"Okay, I'll go and have a look, but you can't hide the medication from me. If I think it's too expensive or unnecessary, don't waste it."

"It's not easy to make money, but you can't help but think about yourself."

Li Ruyi quickly agreed that in Grandma Ding's condition, she would probably have to take medicine regularly in the future.
