In the evening, the family had a simple dinner and went back to their rooms to rest.

Zhao Yunlan also went to the west courtyard to check on Wu Yi and the child, and there was no major problem.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, the baby is fine, and he will go to sleep after feeding." Wu Yi said with a look of relief.

Zhao Yunlan was relieved when she heard this.

It was a good night's dream. On the second day, before Zhao Yunlan woke up, she heard Chunxiang report that the Zhao family had come.

Zhao Yunlan hurriedly got up to wash up, and went to the front yard to meet her parents.Li Mingren was already entertaining his father-in-law and mother-in-law, and now Zhao Daliang liked Li Mingren more and more.

Jiang Shi pulled Li Mingren to wipe away tears, and Zhao Daliang's comfort at the side didn't help.

"Mother, what's the matter?" Zhao Yunlan came over to look at the scene, looking at Li Mingren and Zhao Daliang.

"Girl, your mother is happy!" Zhao Daliang said.

Zhao Yunlan supported Jiang Shi to lean on the chair: "Mother, let's sit."

Seeing her daughter by her side, Jiang's tears slowly stopped.

"Mother, father, you didn't eat so early! Let's go eat first. Is sister-in-law feeling unwell?" Looking at Huang Yuhua's obviously protruding belly, Zhao Yunlan asked with concern.

Huang Yuhua smiled and shook his head: "It's okay, I walked slowly in the morning, and I didn't feel tired after sitting in the car."

Seeing that Huang Yuhua did not try to be brave, Zhao Yunlan was also happy.Turning to look at Zhao Yuncheng:
"Little brother, yesterday I said I would go to your school to pick you up, but I didn't expect you to go home early."

Zhao Yuncheng nodded: "Sister, I have to come back early and wait for this brother-in-law's happy event!"

Li Mingren put his arms around Zhao Yuncheng's shoulders, and said proudly: "You are indeed my little brother!"

The family talked and laughed and went to the backyard.

Mrs. Wang has already got up at this moment, just after hearing the report that the Zhao family has arrived, she hastened out to greet her, when she was walking to the corridor, she saw a group of people coming.

"Oh, my in-laws forgive me, I got up too late today, so I couldn't come to welcome you." Mrs. Wang went up to hold Mrs. Jiang's hand.

Jiang Shi said: "It's okay, I know you came back late yesterday, and you drove for two consecutive days. We didn't think about it, we just got excited and wanted to see Mingren earlier."

Wang smiled: "It's not early, it's not early. Hahahaha, let's have breakfast together."

Mrs. Jiang agreed, and the two families sat together and had a happy breakfast.

After the meal, Zhao Yunlan mentioned that he was going to the capital. Before going to bed last night, he had already discussed with Li Mingren that he would go to the capital before the year before, otherwise the time would be too rushed, and the road to the capital would be getting worse and worse. It's cold, and if it snows, it will be even more difficult to walk.

Mrs. Wang has no objection, now that the family has been handed over to Zhao Yunlan, these matters can be done as they please.

Zhao Yunlan explained the matter of entertaining the folks tomorrow, and the servants began to get busy.If there are no people at home for a long time, what needs to be cleaned should also be cleaned.The things to be prepared in the kitchen must also be prepared. After all, I just came back, and the kitchen doesn't have any food, so I have to go and buy something that is missing.

The two meals last night and this morning were noodles. There were noodles at home, and some chickens were sent over from the mountain, which was barely enough to make chicken soup noodles.

Just as the main courtyard was talking, Steward Li brought the Wang family over.

"Mingren, congratulations!" Li Mingren congratulated happily as soon as Wang Dalong came.

"Uncle, Aunt, please sit down." Li Mingren invited the two elders to sit down.

Wang Shi hadn't seen her elder brother for a long time, so she was naturally very happy.

The three families sat and chatted for a while, and Li Mingren talked about land tax exemption.

The two families strongly oppose it, and they are determined not to do so. Everyone has the same idea. Now that the family is rich, those taxes can be paid.

Zhao Daliang and Jiang Shi also pulled Zhao Yunlan aside and firmly told their daughter not to take this tax-free share.

"Girl, your younger brother is also a scholar. In the future, the family can rely on him for tax exemption. We won't share Mingren's share. You and Mingren can buy more land. The more land, the more food." Zhao Daliang said. serious.

Jiang Shi also said: "Yes, yes. Besides, my uncle also exempted our family from corvee. It's a great thing that your father, brother and the others don't have to be conscripted."

Zhao Daliang also nodded.

Seeing how determined her parents were, Zhao Yunlan had no choice but to agree.

On the Wang family's side, Wang Dalong was also talking to the Wang family. Li Mingren stood in the middle and looked left and right, with a helpless expression on his face.

If you don't want it, then don't let it go, and then keep these shares first.

As soon as the two families stabilized their minds, Li Mingren talked about building a school in Lijiacun. Building a school needed manpower, and Li Mingren planned to recruit people in Lijiacun, Dawangcun and Zhaojiagou.This will also give everyone more opportunities to help workers make money.Of course, Li Mingren wanted to promote the school in Lijia Village.

Although it was built for the children of Lijia Village, if there are people nearby who are willing to send their children to study, the school can also accept it.After all, the time from the two villages to Lijia Village is shorter than the time to go to the town.

The two families are obliged to agree to this matter.

"Nephew, don't worry, I'll talk to the village chief about it when I get back." Wang Dalong said excitedly, patting his chest.

Zhao Daliang also stated: "Son-in-law, this is a good thing, we fully support you."

The three families had lunch together. In the afternoon, old man Li took his children and grandchildren to the back mountain to visit the grave of old man Li.Mr. Li is Li Mingren's grandfather.

Except for the newborn baby at home, everyone from Li Jiaerlang came out, and Ruiwen stood next to Li Mingren.

Old man Li toasted three glasses of wine to his father and mother with tears in his eyes, and then burst into tears, saying: "Father, Ming Ren did not disappoint you, our family has a master Juren. I did not disappoint you Ah~"

Old man Li repeated the same sentence that did not disappoint old man Li. The brothers of the Li family kowtowed and offered incense and stood silently behind Old Man Li.

Finally, when old man Li was sobbing, Li Mingren and Li Mingyi stepped forward to help old man Li up.

At this time, Old Man Li's feet were already numb, and the two brothers helped Old Man Li down the mountain one by one.

The villagers who were weeding in the field praised the Li family's children and grandchildren for their filial piety.

After returning to Li's house, Li Mingren took Li Mingli to the village chief's house.

"Uncle Village Chief." The two brothers saluted first.

The village chief muttered in his heart, this Mingren must not mess around, and then looked at Mingli behind him, with a naive face, eh!probably not.

"Quick, sit in the room." Wang Guifang, the wife of the village head, patted Li Chunsheng without a trace.

Only then did Li Chunsheng come to his senses, and brought the two boys into the main room.Mrs. Wang brought three cups of tea and sat next to her. Li Chunsheng kept winking at Mrs. Wang to go back to the house and look at the girl who was about to get married, but Mrs. Wang didn't understand.

Li Chunsheng was really helpless, and pulled Wang aside: "I told you to go and see my daughter, didn't you see that Mingren brought his third son here?"

Wang Guifang said: "I see, come here as soon as you come, I believe my daughter will not mess around. Mingren's child is now a juren, and he will not let his brother."

The two murmured and put the missing matter on Li Mingli.Mrs. Wang still entered the room to accompany Li Yuqing.Seeing that the wedding day was coming, Li Yuqing was busy embroidering the wedding dress at home.

Wang Guifang didn't know what the three of them were talking about, but when they came out, they saw Li Chunsheng sitting on a chair with tears in his eyes, silent.
