Chapter 536 Waiting for my uncle to come back
“Senior Sister Le, this way.”
Little Laifu led Yin Le into the courtyard gate furtively, pointed to the backyard, and then pointed to the main house with the door slightly closed.
Yin Le nodded to show his understanding, and waved his hand to indicate that he could go out and play.
Watching Xiao Fulai leave, Yin Le withdrew his gaze, secretly walked to the corridor, and took a look at the backyard.
The door of Master's study room was wide open, and there were several strange figures sitting inside. They picked up chopsticks and commented on the dishes on the table, saying that this dish was delicious, that meat was fragrant, etc., and they made loud chewing noises.
Yin Le scanned the people inside again before turning towards the main room.
“Master.” Yin Le walked in quietly and immediately saw the woman lying on the bed taking a nap with her eyes closed.
His complexion is very rosy, and it’s not like Xiao Laifu said he was infected with the wind and cold.
Qin Yao opened her eyes, and a flash of light flashed through her eyes. She sat up and leaned against the bed, waving for Yin Le to come over.
Yin Le pointed to the backyard, "Who are those people?"
"Da Lang's grandparents, uncles and aunts." Qin Yao explained briefly, took out five taels of silver from under the pillow and handed it to Yin Le, "Take the silver and send them away."
Yin Le asked curiously: "Master, why don't you go by yourself?"
Qin Yao yawned lazily, "I'm cold, so it's inconvenient."
"Really?" Yin Le glanced at the master, "Are you sure you're not afraid of trouble?"
Qin Yao raised her eyes slightly and said, "Go if you are told, there are so many bullshit."
Yin Le smiled and took two steps back, so that he would not be able to react in time to prevent the master from suddenly launching an attack. He solemnly raised his fists and said, "Yes! Disciple, go now!"
Seeing Yin Le go out, Qin Yao got off the bed, sat by the window, opened a crack and paid attention to what was going on in the backyard.
Be careful in everything you do, and never fall out with relatives like the Mo family who have clear intentions and come to ask for benefits.
Otherwise, I would definitely be able to sing "Havoc in Heaven" to her.
It's best to get something to send them away, but you can't satisfy them unconditionally.
Of course, all this is based on the other party’s knowledge.
I don’t know if Yin Le can handle it.
"who are you?"
Seeing Yin Le walking in the door, Mr. Mo frowned and asked.
Mrs. Li made a pot of pickled pork and pork jelly. The old man ate it until the edges of his mouth and beard were covered with jelly. While he was talking, a stick of pickled cabbage came out of his teeth.
Mrs. Mo and Sister-in-law Mo took a deep breath at Yin Le's disfigured face, showing disgust.
Yin Le exhaled secretly and smiled, "Hello, old lady, old lady, my name is Yueniang, and the owner of this house is my master."
“Master is not in good health and asked me to come over to greet everyone. I wonder if this meal is good enough?”
Yin Le came to the table as he spoke, glanced at the mess on the tablecloth, and twitched the corner of his mouth slightly.
Master would probably go crazy if he came back and saw that his private property was like this.
Master’s move is really cruel.
Suppressing some sympathy for his master in his heart, Yin Le motioned for everyone to continue eating. He sat down on a chair beside him and asked some questions politely.
How is the harvest at home this year? Are the two elders in good health? It didn’t take long to figure out the Mo family’s background and find out the purpose of the Mo family’s trip.
The Mo family has three demands. One is that they want their children to go to school. Since their home is too far away, they want the children to live in his uncle's house. They ask his uncle to help take care of him.
Yin Le shook his head secretly. This was absolutely impossible to satisfy. There were so many children in the house now that his head was already buzzing and hurting. If he took over a few more children from the Mo family, Yin Le would not dare to think about that scene.
Besides, the child has moved in first. If the Mo family says it is more convenient for them to take care of the child in the future and asks to move in, it will be over.
Furthermore, from this brief contact, Yin Le could see that the Mo family really wanted to stay.
Secondly, they want some direct benefits such as money, meat and food.
The Mo family had a hard time with the locust plague before, and it has not eased this year. In addition, the grain tax has increased this year. Even though the autumn harvest has just been completed, the family can only eat vegetable porridge.
As for why they didn't come to find their lovely uncle in the year of the locust plague, it was because word of Wang Mawu's incident reached Mojia Village that year, and Qin Yao had a bad reputation, so they didn't dare.
Before I came here today, I was actually extremely nervous.
However, the news of Liu Jizhong's election was more exciting, and the fear was temporarily suppressed.
Looking at the delicious food and drinks at home today, I couldn't help but have other thoughts.
That is the last request.
Brother Mo wants his uncle to find a serious job for him. He can be a yamen soldier or a clerk. It would be better if he could be a policeman.
Yin Le felt that her uncle had found the wrong person in this matter, and he should have gone to her master.
Master may not be able to let my uncle enter the Yamen, but Master definitely can!
Of course, except for the second request, Yin Le said that all the rest are impossible.
"What do you mean it's impossible?" Old Mrs. Mo became anxious and stood up quickly. The bones scattered on her clothes also fell to the ground.
“My uncle is now the master of civil education, so it’s not easy to find a job for his uncle in the government office!”
Mrs. Mo glared at Yin Le and scolded her: "You are young and ignorant. I am not as knowledgeable as you, so you can't do it even if you say no? I want to hear what my uncle said personally. We are not going anywhere now. We are just waiting at home for him to come back. !”
Speaking of this, he louded, and he was stunned to the front yard, for fear that the people in the main house would not hear it.
Qin Yao decisively closed the window and went to bed to take a nap.
Sure enough, after a while Yin Le came to her bedside with a sad look on his face and put the five taels of silver back.
“Master, I don’t even have a chance to take out the money. They want too much. I can’t give them an advantage!”
After finishing speaking, Yin Le saw the master stuffing the money under the pillow without even moving his eyelids. Yin Le tried to say:
“How about I scare them?”
Qin Yao sneered, "Do I need you to scare me? Believe it or not, as long as I stand in front of them, that whole bunch of people named Mo won't even dare to fart, and they will get out of here right away?!"
"Of course I have my reasons for doing this. They can wait as long as they like. I won't care about a few meals. I will let them live in their favorite uncle's house for these few days."
Yin Le snorted, stood up and felt that it was time to leave. Then he turned back and asked curiously: "Master, what do you mean?"
Qin Yao: "It doesn't make sense, I'm just too lazy to pay attention to it."
Yin Le frowned helplessly. Master, your answer was so perfunctory. She didn’t believe it anyway.
“Close the door.”
Remembering that the four children were going home from school in the evening, Qin Yao asked again, "You should guard the door and don't let them step out of the study except to go to the latrine."
“Okay.” Yin Le hesitated for a moment and immediately agreed.
I complained in my heart, I will definitely go crazy when my master comes back.
