Chapter 56 Blessed by misfortune
Wanhua and Shaohua didn't expect that Ling's anger would be so strong. No matter how flattering them were, they refused to give up. Thinking that the two brothers-in-in-chief had made such a big deal in Taiheyuan, Li Ge came back and knew it, but he was afraid that things would not be so easy to calm down. Ling seemed to have foreseen this result for a long time, so he was also prepared for Li Xunzhuo to quarrel with her when he came back, and did not want to wrong himself, and his bad face was put on the table.
I just suffered from the third sister and brother, and I was worried that Li Xunzhuo would come back, and I had to appease the Ling family. Ling didn't even look at them at all, causing people to send the two girls back to Bi Wuxuan, and Si Mo was also ordered to study in the room.
Just as the two sisters were going to block Li Xunzhuo halfway, first to explain the matter to Li Xunzhuo for the Ling family. Unexpectedly, Li Xunzhuo ran to Huansiyuan and let the two sisters rush into the air. It was not easy to take the initiative to come and scold, so he had to bravely go back to Biwuxuan and wait. Specially asked Youhan to go to Xiyuan to inquire about the news. As soon as there was a movement, the two sisters immediately rushed to the rescue.
To their surprise, Xiyuan was still as calm as water until dawn, and even Taiheyuan did not make a sound.
"Mom, what happened last night?" As soon as the two entered the door, they couldn't wait to ask.
Ling lazily held the newly combed buns and glanced at them, "Who made you so unruly? As soon as you entered the door, you didn't even say peace."
Only then did the two girls find that Li Xunzhuo was also present, so they said Wanfu and retreated to wait outside. Although Ling's hot temper comes quickly and goes quickly, it is impossible to get up no matter how fast it is to forget what happened yesterday. And from the look of the couple, it doesn't look like the quarrel at the head of the bed and the end of the bed, but nothing happened last night.
The two sisters looked at each other and were confused. Looking at Ling's first walk out, Wanhua couldn't resist her curiosity: "Mother, last night..."
"Have you eaten yet? If not, I will eat with your mother. I'll go out first. Li Xunzhuo turned around and nodded to Ling.
Ling asked with concern, "Don't you go out after eating?"
"No, I'll go out and find a way." Li Xunzhuo echoed and refused, but he had strode away.
It is rare to see such a caring and warm conversation between the couple, or when they both think it was after the war. After Ling saw her husband leave, she turned around, looked at two pairs of shiny gossip eyes, held her chest, and stared at them angrily. He stretched out his hand to push them aside and walked back to the table for dinner. "If you don't have anything to eat, sit down and go to school if you have enough to eat."
"Mother, don't sell it." Wanhua mourned.
"Mom Cui, did someone come to Xuyuan last night?" Shaohua turned his eyes to Cui's mother.
Cui's mother, who was stunned by Ling's dish, looked at Shaohua incredulously. Huh? Five ladies, how do you know?" After saying that, he immediately closed his mouth nervously and looked at Ling Shi. Seeing that she only wanted to bow her head to eat, he boldly said, "It's really true that the young master and the young lady came to plead for the wife in person last night."
"Excend me?" Shaohua was stunned.
Mother Cui scooped a bowl of chicken Yaozhu wolfberry porridge for their wife. The tenderness of the chicken shreds and the sweetness of Yaozhu simmered a pot of white porridge very delicious.
"Last night, the master came back very late. I thought he came back by himself, but I didn't expect that he followed the young master and the young lady." Cui's mother's words made Ling's expression a little light. Shaohua could almost imagine how proud Ling's expression was last night. "As soon as they entered the door, they immediately apologized to his wife without saying anything, which scared the master. Then he said that this time it was the eldest lady's fault. They deliberately came to compensate for the mistake, and said that they had gone to the old man's side to make it clear.
Looking at the two girls' stupid appearance, their chins were about to fall to the ground. Ling said slowly, "I'm not unreasonable and unbearable. If you Burm hadn't gone too far yesterday, I wouldn't have fallen out with her."
While adding vegetables to the two, Cui's mother helped Ling finish the words. The young master said that the wife and the master have worked hard to support the family over the years. The young lady has been in Xiyuan for a few days. After watching and learning, she also knows that it is not easy for her to take care of the family power. It's just that yesterday both of them were elders and angry that it was not easy to brush the eldest lady's face to face, so they came to apologize.
Yesterday, Ling Shi severely lost Xin Zixuan's face. After leaving with her two daughters, in fact, she was not much better. She wanted to persuade her mother-in-law to go back, but she was scolded again. On one side is my mother-in-law, and on the other side is my aunt. Obviously, it has nothing to do with her, but both sides are not pleasing. I have no choice but to wait for my husband to come back and make it out. Li Sijin was still a reasonable person. After listening to his wife's words, he also felt that his mother was doing something wrong. He immediately got up and went to Liu to ask him.
Unexpectedly, Li Liangxun knew the matter before them and scolded Liu in anger. Liu looked at it and saw that his ugliness was hit by his son and daughter-in-law, and he was so ashamed that he wanted to die.
But Li Sijin is no better than his younger brother Si Yan. He was unwavering about Liu's crying and asked Liu to take the initiative to make it clear to Li Gelo, so as not to have a gap in the family's life.
"I really raised you, a white-eyed wolf. I'm doing it for you two brothers. Now you want me to lose my face!" Liu looks dignified and generous on weekdays, and once he cries, it is unreasonable. However, looking at the same faces as her husband and son, she couldn't cry, so she had to turn to her daughter-in-law, "Daughter-in-law, you were just present to watch. Do you think it's my fault!"
Looking at everyone's eyes on her, Xin Zixuan hesitated for a moment and said helplessly, "Mother, it's really not easy for my second aunt over the years. I've seen her do things, and I can't learn that method now." I don't know whether Ling deliberately let her see it, or whether Si Yan is really too prodigal. Looking at those entries, I can't imagine how much money the Li family has to earn to fill in according to Xuyuan.
"Okay, you have no conscience. Let you learn to settle accounts for a few days, and you stand on her side." Liu was so angry that he wanted to jump over and let Li Sijin block him.
Li Liangxun rarely saw his wife's gaffe, and his face turned pale with anger. In anger, he patted the table and roared, "Stop it. When you think I don't know how much you have hidden for Silang, my monthly salary is far less than that of that boy. If it weren't for the second room, where do you think you got today's brocade clothes and jade food! Although Dad is not at home, do you think he doesn't know? If it weren't for you with decentness, it's possible for you to divorce!"
When Liu heard Li Liangxun say such heavy words for the first time, he turned pale and sat in a chair. Xin Zixuan hurriedly poured water on her chest and listened to her Ai Ai's words for a long time, "But, I promised my second brother to add 50,000 taels of makeup to Yan Niang."
"You put on Yan Niang's makeup?" Li Liangxun was so angry that his whole body trembled, "I don't care. I'm going to Taihe Garden and let my father take you away. I don't want this daughter-in-law anymore. Our Li family can't afford to marry such a precious life!"
Liu didn't dare to come out. If Li Sijin hadn't stopped him, he was afraid that Li Liangxun would really run to Taihe Garden. Although he also knew that his wife was protecting his mother's family, Mrs. Li was in charge first, and now Ling is in power. No matter how much Liu is posted, he can't stick much. But I didn't expect that Liu would promise to add makeup to Yan Sui and give so much. Even if the Li family has a golden mountain, it will be emptyed by Liu sooner or later.
The friendship between the two families was not bad. After all, the in-laws for so many years did support each other. However, Liu's behavior clearly forced the relationship between the two families to the edge of the blade.
In the end, Liu had no choice but to solve the trouble caused by Li Sijin and his wife. First, they went to Taiheyuan to plead for Li Gelao. Li Gelao said that he did not intervene and let the two rooms solve it by themselves. Li Sijin and his wife hurried to Xiyuan again, invited Li Xunzhuo and his wife to sit down, and told them the matter originally. As soon as Ling heard that Liu was scolded by her husband, her resentment suddenly dissipated, and she was comforted by Xin Zixuan's few words. However, when she heard that Liu Shi had praised Haikou and wanted to take 50,000 taels to add makeup to Yan Sui, she immediately sneered.
"What a big tone!" Wanhua was furious when he heard this.
"Mom, did you agree?" Shaohua was also shocked. This number is not available casually. They are just economical, so they have to pay a lot of money. Most importantly, who will make up for this? Yan Sui is the daughter-in-law of the Liu family. You can't let Ling and his wife pay for it.
"How can this be? This is not the eldest daughter-in-law. The eldest lady has never been so luxurious when she entered the door." Cui's mother also sneered with great disdain.
I really don't know whether Liu's thoughts are too simple or the Liu family's heart is too cruel to dare to intice Liu's praise this Haikou. The problem is that Liu has promised that if it doesn't go well, it's not whether he can do his family's business. I'm afraid he will have a conflict between the two families. Thinking of it again, Liu and Li's two families had buried their grudges. This time, they couldn't handle it well. I'm afraid Luyang's side will turn upside down.
"Even if I want to agree, my family can't raise so much money for a while." Ling's temper is hot, but when he calms down, he is much more rational than Liu's. It's impossible to give it. You can still consider borrowing it.
Li Sijin took the initiative to make an IOU. After Si Yan's marriage is resolved, where should this account belong?
So far, it doesn't mean that it can be solved by rushing to Luyang with a few words. Fortunately, the Liu family didn't let them come to propose marriage now.
Borrow? Where can I borrow so much? Wanhua felt a little aggrieved. If all this is lent to Si Yan, what will she use as a dowry when she gets married!" Isn't the eldest brother promoted? Just let them think about it by themselves.
"Hanlinyuan is a clear water government. What can I do?" Unless Li Sijin was asked to stop everyone from selling calligraphy and paintings on the street, Shaohua couldn't help making his mind laugh.
"What are you laughing at? Do you have a way?" Wanhua stared at her.
"No, what can I do?" Shaohua couldn't help laughing and continued to think about Li Sijin's serious face shouting in the street, and his heart was happy.
Ling sighed, "So your father is in a hurry to go out, but if the goods in Jiangnan can come back at the end of the year, it doesn't mean that they can't be raised. It's just that it was a dowry for Sanniang. Ling looked at Wanhua with a reluctant face and hugged her in his arms with heartache. "I'm wronged Sanniang. Fortunately, the Fan family can't come back to Beijing until the end of next year. There is still time."
Even if Wanhua is unwilling, he can't say anything, but complains Yan Sui in his heart.
"Mom, does our family only go south?" Shaohua knew that in addition to several farms that produce grain and collect land rent, there are also many shops under the name of several stewmakers. Many of them are cloth seafood in the south, and Li Xunzhuo also has two families under his own name. Most of the time, it is by relying on the goods in the south to make a lot of money, otherwise it is really difficult to support Liu's mother and son to profligate like this.
"I heard that there are often people shopping in the northern Sichuan area, but because it is too far from the Central Plains, I'm afraid that there are many things on the road and the goods are easy to be lost, so I bought it at a high price with foreign merchants. I don't know how much more money will be spent in a year, but it's always not enough, so I can only rely on hoarding, but some things are impatient to hoard and easily break down. But this is all good. After all, the world is peaceful now. If there is a fire on the border, it will be troublesome. Shaohua read it, not paying attention to the surprised expression of the mother and son behind him. In fact, if we can connect with the businessmen in northern Sichuan, we will transport them halfway to pick them up, which is convenient and profitable. In particular, many of those soldiers are from the Central Plains. They have been there for three or five years, or even longer. I'm afraid they can't eat anything here for half of their lives. It is said that they have to send a letter to their home for several years. If they can get online, they may be able to help them bring a family or something. Dad said that the people's hearts are settled, and the world is determined..."
"Who told you this?" Ling suddenly said harshly.
"That's what my grandfather said." Shaohua spoke too smoothly for a moment and leaked all the previous things.
Looking at Ling's silence for a long time, Shaohua did not dare to make a sound. He thought that something had been found, and he was nervous and didn't know what to do. Suddenly, I heard Ling sigh deeply, "Dad is still worried about me." Ling looked at Shaohua's dull face and smiled, "Your grandfather told me about this many years ago, but I didn't expect him to remember it."
Shaohua patted his chest and was shocked. Is it a good chance to say so?
