my grandmother

chapter 100

Li Yinzhu's marriage took a turn for the worse, Li Jinzhu and Li Yuzhu's eyes were dazed and at a loss because of the huge momentum.

Except for the one at Prince Rui's mansion, the other makeups, including the He family in Linhai Town, were all added under the name of Tang Weng Li Shikuan.

Xuedong, the patriarch, was still giving lectures in the county school, and she and Yuzhu couldn't squeeze in front, let alone talk.

The long line of dowry gifts from the Hong family started with two snow-white live sheep tied with bonuses and two altars of fine wine, followed by gold shirts, pomegranate red skirts, emerald emerald heads, golden pearls and flowers, colorful satin silk, scented tea and fruits. The cakes were lined up in a long line and sent to Lijiaji.

Li Jinzhu looked at Mr. Gao, Mr. Hong, Li Shikuan and the others as they came and went politely through several layers of people, stared blankly for a while, then turned and walked back.

Ah Wu, Wang Yuting, and the children, big and small, all ran out to watch the excitement.

Li Xiaonan sat at the door of the wing room, concentrating on writing.Sister Mei was sitting at the door of the kitchen choosing dishes.

The small courtyard is quiet.

Seeing Li Jinzhu come in, Li Xiaonan put down her pen and looked at the elder sister, who had a bad expression on her face.

Li Jinzhu took a small bamboo chair and sat next to Li Xiaonan.

"Your second elder sister and I," Li Jinzhu paused, and then said in a low voice, "I'm a little scared."

Li Xiaonan moved the chair, next to the elder sister.

"Sister-in-law Lu of our preserved egg shop, the second elder sister is very friendly with her, often talks to her, and likes to sit with her when eating." Li Xiaonan looked at Li Jinzhu.

Li Jinzhu frowned, and hummed for a moment.

"You said Mrs. Yin told you: People in the workshop are very flattering Mrs. Lu. Someone often brings Mrs. Lu a handful of vegetables, a bag of green beans, a few cucumbers, etc. You can ask the second sister if Mrs. Lu is there. She said in front of her who is good and who is not." Li Xiaonan continued.

Li Jinzhu raised his eyebrows slightly.

"The prince and I are also like this. He thinks I can talk to me and is willing to talk to me. Someone sent a handful of vegetables and a few scallions to our house."

Li Jinzhu frowned again, and after a while, Li Jinzhu frowned tightly, "Aunt, if according to what you say, Tang Weng Weng and the others accept gifts like this, and the Hong family, isn't it too much?"

"Those who add make-up, unless one family doesn't accept it, otherwise, if they accept this one, they have to accept that one." Li Xiaonan looked at Li Jinzhu.

Li Jinzhu hummed and sighed.

This is human affection.

"We can't control the Hong family. If Eldest Sister thinks something is wrong, go to Tang Weng, Tang Weng should be able to listen to it." Li Xiaonan held Li Jinzhu's arm.

"Your brother is not here..." Li Jinzhu paused before finishing his sentence.

Xuedong spends more and more time outside, and he can no longer point to Xuedong in the front of everything at home. She doesn't need to play Xuedong's banner, what she wants to say is what she means, what their sisters mean!
"I'm going to talk to Tang Weng." Li Jinzhu paused, silent for a moment, looked at Li Xiaonan, and said in a low voice: "Anan, this makes sense, how many days can you say it? Maybe it won't be possible in a few days, besides, then This noble family is from the capital, so he can't stay in Pingjiang Mansion all the time, in the future?"

After that, Li Jinzhu didn't go on, and she didn't know what to say. If the nobleman left or didn't like talking to Ah Nan, what would happen to their family?
"I don't know either." Li Xiaonan said in a low voice, "Elder Sister, that prince's relationship with our family started from the eggs in the yard.

"The business of the Preserved Egg Shop is really prosperous because of the support of the Wangfu, but without the support of the Wangfu, we can still do a good job in the preserved egg shop, right? Our preserved eggs are delicious, and Mrs. Yin knows how to do business. The eldest elder sister and the second elder sister are capable and hardworking."

"Without that yard of eggs, where can we get preserved eggs?" Li Jinzhu sighed softly.

"That!" Li Xiaonan paused, lowered her eyes and said, "Elder Sister, if we go back to the time before we didn't have that yard of eggs, do you think we can survive?"

"Yes, why not?" Li Jinzhu replied, after a moment of silence, she looked at Li Xiaonan and said with a smile: "Whatever, your brother's talent is our own ability, as long as we have this, no matter what, it is better than when we were in Xiaolizhuang. too much.

"You write well, I'll go outside and have a look."

Li Jinzhu stood up, looked at Li Xiaonan who was looking up at her, stretched out his hand and stroked her face, "We have you and your brother in our family, no matter how we can get over it, the better."

"Yeah!" Li Xiaonan smiled.

....................................

At the invitation of Huang Xianzun, Li Xuedong gave two or three lectures on Confucian classics in Kunshan County, and another ten lectures on Gezhi. Li Yinzhu was only a few days away from getting married.

Li Xuedong bid farewell to Huang Xianzun.

Huang Xianzun asked Li Xuedong to sit down, poured him a cup of tea, pointed to a big red lacquered invitation card on the table next to him, and smiled with Li Xuedong: "Your third sister's personal welcome is very lively, you heard No?"

"I heard about it." Li Xuedong bowed slightly, and replied respectfully.

What he heard was all about Brother Hong's complaints with him, not about their Li family, but about him, Weng Weng, who had an idea for a while, which was too troublesome.

"I heard that it has become lively since the son of Prince Rui's Mansion put on makeup." Huang Xianzun said in a soft voice, and looked at Li Xuedong carefully with a smile on his face.

Li Xuedong looked at Huang Xianzun.

"So your sister and the Shizi are friends?" Huang Xianzun met Li Xuedong's obviously bewildered eyes and asked with a smile.

"A'nan seldom talks about it. The students came back this time and went directly to the county. I haven't seen A'nan and eldest sister, so I don't know very well." Li Xuedong replied honestly.

"You are a good boy." Huang Xianzun's eyes showed pity, "I remember your sister, she is thin and small, with bright eyes, she looks like a smart kid."

Huang Xianzun paused, lowered his eyes, took a few sips of tea, put down his cup, sighed, looked at Li Xuedong and said, "Your brothers and sisters have lost their mothers and fathers, and there is no one to teach them. sentence."

"Please teach me, sir." Li Xuedong immediately bowed his hands.

"It is a great fortune to be able to make friends with such a noble person as the son of the world. The greater the fortune, the more cautious you must be, and the more you must cherish the blessings. If you make progress, you will want to regress. When you start, try to let go first. The bow cannot be full, and the momentum is overwhelming. Do your best."

Huang Xianzun spoke every word, very slowly.

Li Xuedong listened intently, seeing that Mr. Huang had stopped talking, he hurriedly bowed his body to express his thanks, "The student has been taught."

"Well, go back and tell your sister that your sister is a smart kid. Okay, let's go back." Huang Xianzun raised his hand and patted Li Xuedong on the shoulder.

"Yes, Mr. Xie for advice." Li Xuedong stood up, thanked Huang Xianzun again, and retreated.
