Chapter 234: Retirement
More and more people gathered in front of the Guogong Mansion, and countless eyes full of contempt and mockery fell on their backs, feeling hot. The sound of ridicule and criticism came into his ears from time to time, what wind ~ amorous, what glamorous blessings, made Li Cang want to get up and leave more than once.
But he didn't leave after all, he only knelt straight, as if he wanted to show people or himself that he was guilty.
Mrs. Li saw Mrs. An go back, and told Li Jiye that this family business could not be saved, and Li Jiye was furious. first complained that Mrs. Li was not doing well, and then blamed Mrs. An for being pampered and arrogant, and she was too good at taking Qiao. Of course, he was most angry with Li Cang, who hated to clean up the portal immediately and drag "that evil obstacle" out and kill him.
Wu Shangshu was preparing to recommend a successor to the Holy Lord, and he had always been determined to win that position. Li Cang's unmatchmaking with Hao Linglong has already made Wu Shangshu quite dissatisfied, and he has always treated him coldly these days. If the Xie family retreats at this juncture, I am afraid that it will not be just cold-eyed.
The top priority is to convince Mrs. An to save this family business.
Mrs. Li asked him to complain, and immediately became ill, handed over the house affairs to Mrs. Li, ignored everything, and lay on the bed to recuperate.
Li Jiye knew that most of her illness was pretended, so she begged twice in a good voice, but Mrs. Li only shouted that she had a headache and chest pain, and made up her mind not to care about Li Cang's affairs anymore.
Li Jiye couldn't, so he could only ask for help from the eldest princess of Chengxuan again.
Xue Hui is a person who can't rub sand in her eyes, she originally thought about the beauty of adults in order to relieve the Li family, but now that Li Cang has done such an ugly thing, she only feels that her face is gloomy, where is she willing to help make peace?
Li Jiye touched his nose and became more and more annoyed, so when he returned home, he took Li Cang out of the ancestral hall and scolded him for being bloody. After scolding, he kicked him out of the house and told him to think of ways to keep his family. can't keep his family, don't want to step into the door of the Li family again.
Li Cang was angry at first, not to Li Jiye, but to Mulan.
He felt that he had done his duty to Mu Lanren, thinking that she had fallen to the point where she could only be recruited, but he was not afraid of people's words to stand up for her, and even put down his dignity and knelt outside the door of the Xie family to ask for marriage, giving her a lifelong home. She did such a thing at the Li Family Flower Meeting, and he never disliked her. It is normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines, not to mention that he is still plotted by others and forced to be helpless, why should she kick him off without asking?
He wanted to go to Mulan for questioning, and told her in person that he should retreat even if he wanted to withdraw from his relatives.
Walking on the road angrily, people could be heard everywhere talking about Hao Linglong stopping cars on the street, and even those who recognized him pointed at him.
The more I walked, the more I lost confidence, and after hesitating for a long time on the way, I still came to the Guogong Mansion in the end.
For him, it doesn't matter whether he can keep this family business, the important thing is that he has to go back to the Li family. If he is not there, who will protect Hao Linglong and the child in her womb? The eldest husband can bend and stretch, his kneel, he is not giving in to the Xie family and Mulan, he is bowing his head for his own woman and child.
Hongyu listened to the report on the door, and was in a dilemma for a long time. Not only did he have the heart to be angry for Mulan and asked Li Cang to kneel for a while, but he was also worried that Li Cang would not be able to stay up and leave, which would annoy Mrs. An, then this family affair would be completely yellow.
After some hesitation, he still came to the Buddha hall and told Mrs. An about Li Cang's kneeling outside the door.
Mrs. An snorted coldly after hearing this, "Let him go." β
When she asked to marry, she also felt that as a man, she was willing to bend her knee for Mulan, which must be out of sincerity. Now that he is in such trouble and comes to kneel again, it will only make people think that his knees are worthless. He was so easy to fiddle with when he was the daughter of the Xie family, he knelt down and begged, and if he knelt down again, he would be forgiven for making a big mistake?
As far as she knew, Li Cang had always asked him to be locked up in the ancestral hall to think about it, and to be able to appear outside the gate of the Guogong Mansion today, even if it was not instructed by the Li family, he acquiesced. wants to use such clumsy means to save his family, but he is too underestimated to explain the family, and he doesn't take her and Mulan in his eyes.
When he spoke again, there was a sense of coldness in his voice, "You don't have to choose any auspicious day, and immediately return the dowry to the Li family." β
"Madame......"
Hongyu still needed to be persuaded again, but was stopped by a gesture from Mrs. An, "There are people who have bad habits that are difficult to change, and if you forgive this time, there will be a next time, there is nothing to regret." I've made up my mind, and you don't have to persuade me anymore. β
Hongyu understood Mrs. An's temper, and knew that there was no turning point in this matter, and she deserved to exit the door. Now that it has been decided, he did not drag the mud and water, ordered the manpower, and carried the dowry and the New Year's ceremony sent by the Li family since the marriage was decided.
Seeing that the door that the family did not open easily, Huo Ran opened, and Li Cang was still thinking that Mrs. An was going to invite him in ceremoniously, and was about to tear off his robe and swing up, but he saw a group of people carrying gift boxes and going out of the door. Hearing someone in the crowd of onlookers shouting, "The Xie family is going to quit their relatives", I realized that my brain was buzzing, and I rushed up to stop the person who hit the head without thinking, "Stop, stop me!"
He is not a quasi-uncle now, but he is still a noble son of an official eunuch, and the leader of the team did not dare to conflict with him, so he had to stop the team and send a small servant to report to Hongyu.
There is no hope for this family business, and Hongyu is only disgusted with Li Cang, "He is alone, can he stop the leader of the team and the tail of the team? β
The little guy passed the word quickly, the team leader had no scruples, waved his hand, and the team walked forward with a load of boxes.
Most of these people are carefully selected nursing house members, all of them are strong and strong, and they have practiced under Lu Xin for some time, and they all know some fists and feet. Li Cang stood there with his arms outstretched, feeling like a clown with his mantis arms in a car. If he has a heart, he will be laughed at if he retreats like this, and if he has the heart to hinder him, which one can he stop with his thin body?
When he was in a dilemma, the crowd of onlookers suddenly stirred, and one person's voice was particularly loud in the noise, "It's the girl from the Xie family, the girl from the Xie family is back!"
Li Cang was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that Mulan often went out of the house. I think it's because there are too many times to show up, so that people recognize them. At this time, I didn't care about whether it was appropriate for my fiancΓ©e to call onlookers, and I just wanted to seize this opportunity to persuade Mulan to change her mind. Immediately, he put aside the queue to return the dowry and ran in the direction of the crowd.
Ruixi lifted the corner of the curtain and glanced out, and the head of the black pressure was so frightened that his little face turned white, "Girl, what's going on in our house?"
Mulan frowned, she went out and came back one after another, how did she know what was going on? As soon as she turned the corner of the street, the crowd hulared around, blocking the carriage on all sides, and it was too late to turn around and leave, and then send Pan Yun back to explore.
was making all kinds of ominous conjectures in his heart, when he heard someone outside the car shouting: "Second Master Li is here!"
