Chapter 267: The Wind
Resentment? Resentment! Hate? But not. It's just that a person like Mother Li, the more she lets her, the more she will think that you are a bully, but if you act like a master, or don't take her in your eyes at all, then she will be honest.
At this moment, Mother Li's face was very red. She was a little unconvinced. She has worked hard and made great achievements, even the generals of the Du family have praised her more than once, saying that she is affectionate and righteous. However, as soon as they met, they were stabbed by this so-called eldest lady. She sounds good to be the eldest lady, but she hasn't been recognized yet! But looking at Li Qin again, the corners of her mouth curled slightly after she finished saying that, and she slowly turned her head and went straight to the restaurant. Her back is very straight, and the temperament around her body does not look like she has been a slave for many years and has been nesting in the ravines for many years.
Mother Li felt a little panicked in her heart, and quickly turned her head to look at Li Ren. But Li Renzheng smiled brightly and walked with Li Qin. It's just that she was too shocked, humiliated, and angry just now, and she didn't see Li Ren's frowning.
With this little episode, Li's mother was afraid in her heart, and she didn't say a word of irrelevance during dinner. But she found that she really couldn't say anything. In the past, when Li Ren was eating, she would tell him to eat more of this and that, and said that he had lost weight, and that he needed to take care of himself. But now, Li Qin, the down-and-out eldest lady, can simply say a few words about each dish, and it is very reasonable, plus a few people say a few more witty words, and the atmosphere on the table is very lively. After holding back a few times, she wanted to say "eat without saying a word, sleeping without speaking", but she couldn't do it herself, she said too much, and it would be bad to make Li Ren unhappy again.
Compared with Li's mother's inner turmoil today, Li Qin didn't care too much about this matter.
In her previous life, she returned to the capital cautiously but was a little confused, and always felt that the Earl's Court had no sense of security, but that the man who kept his promise could be his lifelong support. Now that I have returned, my mood is very different.
This is the new Earl's Court, and it is no longer the warm home she had in her childhood. Time has passed, although the feeling in her memory is gone, she and her younger brother have grown up, and it is time for them to create such a warm environment.
The next day, Li Qin asked Li Ren to go shopping on the street together. Although Li Ren was rewarded, Li Qin didn't have a piece of jewelry that he could get his hands on, let alone rouge gouache, which was something that every woman in Beijing needed. So Li Ren planned to go out with Li Qin to buy some, so that no matter if she went to the General's Mansion or had any sudden situation, she would not be disdained by others because of her clothes.
Nowadays, there are no outsiders in the Earl's Court, so many of the rules are not very strict. After saying that he would go out at the right time, Li Qin arrived outside Li Ren's courtyard a little earlier, and Yu Fei was already waiting there early.
Yu Fei had a warm face, and a silver-gray robe lined him with a handsome youth. Yu Fei's skin is pale, just like in the mountains, he has not become dark, but has a bit of wheat color. Although this silver-gray person with white skin is very white to wear, and his skin is a little darker, it looks very black, but Yu Fei stands tall, like a standing silver gun, but it looks very straight. In addition, there are no flowers and plants outside Li Ren's courtyard, only a piece of bamboo, which contrasts with Yu Fei's somewhat handsome temperament, which makes Li Qin laugh when he sees him.
As soon as Li Ren came out, he saw such a scene, a silver-gray figure stood tall, and Li Qin was wearing a light blue dress on the side, a fresh, cool, and intimate feeling suddenly made him extremely comfortable, and he actually felt that Li Qin was with Yu Fei like this, and it looked more natural and comfortable than being with Du Heng.
Li Ren was already an earl, and it was impossible to go out alone, so there were seven or eight people in the back and the nursery.
Out of the main gate, there are two finely carved carriages, the most sour thing for Li Qin is the mark of the Li family on it, after many years, after two lifetimes, she finally saw this symbol that brought her infinite glory and sorrow. Maybe there were too many unrealistic pursuits in the previous life, and I didn't dare or want to vent such feelings of missing my relatives, but in this life, I let go of the pursuit and lived a more casual life. So, after returning to the capital, those emotions that were originally sealed in her memory, and even she herself couldn't remember, kept emerging from the depths of her mind.
Li Qin stroked its protrusions and depressions in a daze, and fell into memories for a while and couldn't extricate himself.
"Phew—"
A hurried stopping sound pulled Li Qin out of his memory, looked to the right, and just saw a delicately dressed girl walking out of the canopy in the carriage that had not yet stopped.
She was wearing a long yellow dress, and her fair skin didn't know whether it was under the sunlight or under the reflection of her clothes, she looked like jade, giving people the feeling of being blown and broken. But she was puffed up, and there were two pink clouds on her cheeks, which made people feel extremely cute.
Compared with Li Ren's inexplicability, Li Qin recognized her at once, Zhao Tingting, the county lord of Shunning!
Zhao Tingting frowned condescendingly at the people in front of the carriage, and after a few rounds, she looked at the carriage they were going to get on, and then frowned and looked straight at Li Ren.
"You're Li Ren?" Although it was a question, the tone was immediately determined.
Li Ren glanced at the carriage that Zhao Tingting was sitting in, and there was a faint royal etiquette, and he suddenly didn't dare to be careless, and said modestly: "Exactly." Dare to ask the girl—"
"Do you have a favorite woman?"
Li Ren was robbed of white by Zhao Tingting before he finished speaking, and asked such a question, which immediately made Li Ren's face red, and he didn't know how to answer her for a while.
Zhao Tingting didn't care about him, and said directly: "If you have a favorite woman, hurry up and get married, the county lord doesn't look down on you, even if you marry you, you also hate each other, you get rid of the idea of being with the county lord as soon as possible, and when the saint asks you, make it clear, don't be tired, the county lord will resist with you!" ”
After speaking, he went straight into the carriage again, and didn't even give Li Ren another look.
Li Ren was stunned! He is only thirteen years old, and he is the master of the family, and there is no one to help him get married, so there are some things he should also think about, or listen to General Du's arrangement. He had never listened carefully to a woman who had never heard so many words except for Mother Li and Li Qin, and he still said such things! Seeing everyone looking at him, Li Ren's face became hotter and hotter. How bold is this woman! But what does she mean by that? Resistance? Could it be that there is a rumor that the Holy One is going to give marriage to the two of them?
