Looking at the green and yellow things in front of him, it was endless, no, you could still see the end, Li Jinong was surprised.

What is this thing? It looks heavy, like rice, but it shouldn’t be! There are so many ears of rice that it’s a bit illogical, isn’t it?

He is well-informed and naturally knows how many ears of ripe rice there are, but what he sees now is a bit outrageous, there are too many.

He walked in with curiosity to take a closer look. When he took a look, he was shocked. Sure enough, these were rice ears, hanging all over the branches, and the whole rice plant was bent down.

"How is it possible? How can a rice plant bear so many rice grains? Am I dazzled?" Li Jinong didn't believe it. He rubbed his eyes and continued to look. Yes, there are so many.

"Is it because I haven't been back to Xianyang for a few years that the rice production has increased? But I have never heard of it!" Li Jinong scratched his scalp and shook his head, very puzzled.

At this time, a man came over and looked at Li Jinong with vigilance and caution. He was Butler Xiao.

Since the rice has matured, people often come to visit Chang'an Township. I can't say that they all participate. Some are sneaky and some are fair. Anyway, they all have the same expression, but it is greedy.

But these people seemed to have some background. The housekeeper dared to look at them but did not dare to get angry, let alone drive them out.

Therefore, whenever someone came, he would watch on the side vigilantly and deal with it carefully.

Fortunately, maybe because of the young master's reputation, although these people are very greedy, no one dares to mess around. They can only use some sneaky means to take away some, but it does not harm the fundamentals.

Although the man in front of him didn't look like a rich and powerful person, he didn't look like an ordinary person either. Naturally, the housekeeper didn't dare to chase him away, so he sneaked in and saw him staring at the rice ears for a long time, so he walked over.

"Sir, are you from Xianyang city?" the housekeeper asked tentatively.

Li Jinong was startled by the voice behind him. He turned around quickly and looked at the housekeeper dressing up. Naturally, he didn't think he was a farmer, so he said, "Yes, it should be."

This answer was somewhat ambiguous, and the housekeeper was even more vigilant.

"Why did you come to Chang'an Township, sir?"

Li Jinong knew that he had lost his temper, so he quickly apologized and said, "I'm sorry, Li Jinong, no, Li Jifu, for disturbing your husband. I heard that my nephew was in Chang'an Township, so I came to find him."

"Nephew? What is your nephew's name in Chang'an Township?"

Li Jinong cupped his fists and bowed, "Single word Zhao."

"Single character Zhao?" The housekeeper pondered slightly, feeling that this word seemed a bit familiar. Suddenly his eyes widened and he stared at Li Jinong, "Sir, did you just say your surname was Li?"

Shan Zi Zhao, surnamed Li, isn't it Li Zhao? No, it's the young master. This person came to see the young master?

The housekeeper looked at Li Jinong carefully.

"Of course, I was from Xianyang back then, and my eldest brother Li Nian was also a well-known person, but later on! Let's not mention it! Sir, have you ever heard of Li Zhao? He is my nephew."

Li Jinong said bluntly.

"Are you the younger brother of Master Li Nian and the uncle of Young Master Li Zhao?" The housekeeper was surprised. After this period of contact and understanding, he still knew about Li Zhao's family background.

After all, the Li family was a wealthy family back then, and not many people in Xianyang didn't know it.

"Of course!" Li Jinong didn't deny it, nor did he feel ashamed. After the decline of the Li family, his eldest brother Li Nian died of depression. The Li family was ostracized by the powerful, and his family members were almost exiled. He spent a lot of money to avoid being punished, but he had no choice but to

Don’t leave Xianyang in despair.

Perhaps Li Si was afraid of being criticized, so he kept Li Zhao, mother and son, to save Li Zhao. Later, Li's mother was forced to leave, and her whereabouts are unknown, leaving Li Zhao alone.

For some people, speaking out about this matter is a shame, but Li Jinong does not object to being mentioned.

The butler became excited and his attitude became respectful, "Master Li, I am very happy to see you!"

Yes, Li Zhao is the only one in the Li family. Now that he is patrolling eastward with His Majesty, no one will take charge of Chang'an Township. Such a large family property really makes Butler Xiao's head hurt. Now that his uncle appears, he is the master. Naturally, the master can take charge of Chang'an.

The lord of the village.

As the saying goes, if there is no father, then the uncle is the father, and naturally he is the master.

Li Jinong was still very pragmatic. When he saw the old man calling himself "Master", he quickly avoided him.

In the past, he would have naturally not refused to be called 'Master' and would have been happy to accept it. However, due to his current family situation, he could not afford it and was not worthy of this title. After all, 'Master' was an honorific title for a well-to-do family, and he was not well-off.

"Don't, don't, I can't bear it." He humbly said, "Don't call that boy Zhao'er young master. That's all in the past. He is a farmer now. He can't afford it. He can't afford it."

As he spoke, Li Jinong felt sad for a while, thinking that his Li family was once rich, but now they are reduced to the situation where their nephew has to be a farmer. What a tragedy for the family!

He wanted to make a comeback but was unable to do so, which made him even more sad.

Yes, Li Zhao was the young master in the past, but now, people are different and things are different, so you must recognize yourself and don't make others laugh.

"Hey! Zhao'er had a hard life at a young age. He lost his father when he was young, and his mother's whereabouts are unknown. He was even kicked out by that bastard Li Si." Yes, he also found out that Li Zhao was kicked out by Li Si.

He just lived in Chang'an Township.

"It's his blessing that Zhao'er can be taken in by you!"

"In the future, we still need to rely on the old nobleman to keep warm food for Li Zhao's children."

Li Jinong knelt down to salute, but for the sake of his nephew, the only descendant of the Li family, he lowered his dignity.

When the housekeeper saw it, he broke into a sweat and quickly supported Li Jinong, "I can't do it, I can't do it, young master." He wanted to tell the truth, but was beaten by Li Jinong.

"Old nobleman, don't try to discredit Zhao'er. Just call him Li Zhao."

"Is this appropriate?" The housekeeper was worried.

"It's appropriate, absolutely appropriate." Li Jinong said quickly, fearing that the old man would be displeased and drive his nephew out.

From a distance, one was respectful and the other was humble, just standing in the field and being polite, which seemed a bit funny.

"By the way, housekeeper, is Zhao'er here?" The housekeeper had already revealed his identity just now.

"Young Master." The housekeeper didn't know whether to laugh or cry at this title. Li Jinong asked him not to call him "Young Master", but could the housekeeper not call him "Young Master"?

I was in a dilemma for a moment, "I'm not here, I've been away for a while, I'm here with you"

The steward was about to say that he was on a tour with His Majesty, but was interrupted by Li Jinong, "What, it's the busy time of farming at the moment, and he has been away for a while. That kid still can't change his temper!"

"Butler, I'm here to apologize for you. Please don't blame Zhao'er. After all, he is still young." Li Jinong quickly handed over his hand.

The housekeeper is really at a loss. Isn't it normal for the young master to leave? To apologize is to offend him! What's more, it is an honor to go on tour with His Majesty!

It was enough to honor the ancestors, but this uncle said that the young master could not change his temper and was to be blamed.

Hey! This guy has some high demands on his nephew.
