Chapter 178: Wake up Li Dao

Deng Shi looked at the children, looked at Li Cuihua, and shook his head with a smile. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Zhizi Mo Ruomu, now the children have their own opinions, and the children are becoming more and more ghosts now. At this time, he just smiled at the eldest sister, and whether he would help the eldest sister's family in the future or not, the children did not say it clearly.

Deng thought about his eldest brother-in-law and his family, and he was also a little worried that the people in their family would drag down his family, first, he was not a blood relative, and secondly, he didn't know what he was going to help, so it was good not to mess up. So Deng didn't say anything about it.

Li Cuihua thought that she had received the letter from Brother Li Hai, and got up and said to the Deng family: "Min, I'll go out and send Li Dao out." Save him from worrying in our house. I went to discuss with my sister-in-law, and I mentioned it before, if I bring my mother back, we don't have to give so much grain and plum rice every month. I know you don't like my mother. However, thinking about it on another side, my mother is back, and Li Dao will have no excuse to reach out to everyone for money in the future. Think about it, see if it's okay, if you're okay, I'm sure to tell my sister-in-law. ”

Deng Shi thought about it, frowned, sighed, and said, "I'll discuss it with you, eldest sister, it's not that we don't want my mother to come back, last time my mother was sick, you were there, and you also saw it." What if it happens again? ”

Li Cuihua sighed and said, "This is also what I want to say." Min, I think you've been buying things indiscriminately, and your family must not have enough money to build a house. Look at how much is missing, eldest sister, I will make up for you, and you will move out. My mother will be served by me and my eldest brother. It's going to be fine. ”

Deng Shi was a little moved when he heard this, but he still said that he would not decide until Li Zhu came back to discuss it together.

Li Cuihua saw that the Deng family had made up her mind, so she didn't say anything more and went out.

Deng thought that the hall was now making trouble with the eldest sister's family affairs. The eldest brother-in-law may have to take care of Li Daoxiucai's identity, and he has no silver on him. How did the eldest sister Li Cuihua say that she was kind to Li Dao before, and her seniority was higher than Li Dao, and it must be good for the eldest sister to deal with it.

Deng nodded, detained the children to read in the house, and went to Old Man Li's hall with Li Cuihua.

Brother Li Hai didn't have to listen to those words that reversed black and white, he was happy in his heart, and he obediently took out the sandbox to practice calligraphy.

After a pillar of incense, Li Zhu and Deng returned to the house with a sigh.

As I said before, Li Zhu doesn't care about the size of the children in the family, and whether they can understand it or not, he reports and analyzes everything in the family with the children. This time, of course, is no exception.

Li Zhudao: "Hai'er, Tao'er, Bo'er, Binbin, Deng Chi, your second uncle wants your aunt to pay the rent of your eldest aunt and Granny Zhang, this is a matter of reason." He wants to take away his mother's share of his mother, which is also right. It doesn't sound benign, but it's all a matter of reason. It can only be said that when the eldest sister's family moved into us, she didn't think deeply and didn't follow the rules. If at that time, the eldest sister and eldest brother-in-law went to the neighboring town to talk to their mother, they would definitely not need to pay this rent. In the future, you must abide by the rules and not let people take the wrong place. Look at this trouble, everyone is uncomfortable. It was originally a good thing, but now the second brother and the eldest sister don't talk about it, the second brother said that people think he is a landlord, and if he doesn't give him a monthly increase in money, it may not be empty talk. The monthly money is generally given to people in need, and the family can also adopt a family with a family, which must be a good life, and it is not surprising that it does not rise. ”

After hearing this, Deng nodded and said to Li Zhu: "The eldest sister said today that Li Dao is distracted, and she will rely on our family to take care of her in the future." Li Zhu frowned after hearing this, sighed, and said, "The eldest sister has not learned the rules in a big family for so many years. Min, should you go down? ”

Deng smiled and pouted at the children, and said with a smile: "The children are ghosts, they are talking about everything in the east and west, and they don't say yes or shouldn't." The eldest sister probably thought that our family would be headed by the children in the future, and she didn't ask my opinion. ”

When Li Zhuyi heard this, he smiled happily: "Eldest sister, this is really." Her rules, really. The children are so young that they may not even understand the meaning of her words. Really, ha. It's okay to do this, our family saves worry, if it's the eldest sister's business, we can take care of one or two, and the eldest brother-in-law's family, let's watch it. ”

Deng smiled and nodded. The children glanced at each other, and despised Li Zhu's words just now, how could they not understand? If you don't understand, you won't ramble.

Li Zhu said to Deng that the eldest sister gave Li Dao two taels of silver as a year's rent money. The second uncle, Li Dao, was served by Wu's sister-in-law at home, and Ming'er returned to the neighboring town.

Li Zhu was talking with the Deng family and the children, and Li Dao's voice came from outside the door, "Zhu, big brother, everyone come out, our brothers haven't seen each other for a long time, let's talk together." Save on life. ”

Li Zhu frowned, patted Deng's hand, and said to the children, "Be at home, don't come out." ”

The children nodded, their faces full of disdain. Binbin sighed in his heart, could it be that something happened to the second uncle, and the money was not handed. (Money fans don't think about anything but money.) )

When Li Zhu opened the door, he saw Li Dao on the table under the peach blossom tree in his house, placing three wine glasses, holding a wine jug in his hand, looking at it again and again, with a reluctant look.

As soon as Li Dao saw Li Zhu, he hurriedly put down the wine jug, looked like a host, and greeted warmly: "Zhu, come and sit, sit, we brothers, we haven't drunk together for a long time, everyone sit down, tonight, our brothers are not drunk and don't return." ”

As soon as he said this, Li Yu's "hum" sound came from the side.

Li Yu stood next to Li Dao, re-examined Li Dao with a gaze that seemed to be the first time he knew Li Dao, and hummed: "Say, what happened to you this time?" What do you want our brother to help you with? ”

When Old Man Li heard Li Dao's voice, he stepped out of his house and said, "You brothers have a drink, and you also reward me, the old man." ”

When Li Dao saw Old Man Li come out, his face flushed for no reason, and his forehead was dripping with sweat.

The elder did not sit, Li Zhu did not dare to sit down, stood next to Li Yu, looked at his nose and nose, looked at the ground, and was afraid that he would face Li Dao and cause something bad.

Li Dao saw the formation of the people in the family, and he was angry, and the shame just now had already been lost. Li Dao said to Li Yu: "What's wrong with you?" I invite the big guy to drink, and if you don't drink, you can just leave, and show me a face, what is this for? ”

Li Yu snorted, shook his head, and said, "Hmph, don't say yes, Zhu, let's sit down and drink, he won't say it now." Later, I drank it, and I couldn't believe it when I said all the wine, so my father was next to us to testify. ”

Li Zhu hurriedly responded. After Li Dao heard this, he was so angry that he ascended to heaven, he was dizzy, and now he said that he could save a bottle of wine from his own house, so he hurriedly wiped the wine jug, put away his anger, sighed, and said: "Now people can't eat enough, and there are few people who go to school." The academy I was in is now a bit beyond what I can do, and I originally wanted to change the academy, but I thought that this was also my father-in-law's academy, so I had to spend my life with a large family. ”

When Li Zhu heard this, he chuckled in his heart, thinking in his heart, it was really a matter of money.

Li Yu frowned, looked at Li Dao, and clenched his fists.

Old Man Li squatted on the ground, sighed, and said, "Life is not good now, you can't abandon your father-in-law at this time." ”

Li Dao smiled and nodded: "No, Dad, I can't do such a thing." Just talking. ”

Old Man Li sighed, his eyes were hollow, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Li Dao looked at Li Yu and Li Zhu, and said: "The academy makes money everywhere, and my father-in-law wants to borrow some silver from the gentlemen's family. Zhu, big brother, look at it, our family also has a part. ”

Li Yu hurriedly said: "Your eldest brother still owes money to the third brother, and I won't make up for this part, eldest brother." ”

Li Dao knew that the eldest brother Li Yu only farmed, and he had to hand over the two boys to Shu Xiu, so he didn't expect the money of the eldest brother Li Yu, so he looked at Li Zhu and said: "Zhu, I heard that you have opened a shop in the town, and you have surplus silver in your hands." Get together, you see that the second brother is the son-in-law of the academy, and he can't take it without a hundred thousands. This face can be the face of our old Li family. ”

After hearing this, Old Man Li stood up on the ground, pointed at Li Dao and said, "You, you." ”

Li Zhu saw that Old Man Li couldn't get up in one breath, so he hurriedly stepped forward to pat Old Man Li on the back. Old Man Li sighed and said, "Don't you know how to do it, it sounds so good, is it because you yourself are short of silver, or the academy is short of silver, let's go and ask." We all know that the people here don't eat or drink, and they don't reduce the number of children going to school. ”

After Old Man Li calmed down, tears couldn't stop flowing, and he cried: "I know clearly, blame me for listening to your mother's words before, and only blindly spoiling you, thinking that you are reasonable and didn't teach you much." This is really, the ladies in the family have raised it, but they can't get on the stage, the little things are constant, and the big things can't help. How is this good? ”

Li Dao didn't sound right, and said angrily: "Dad, what are you talking about, you are saying that I am not well educated." I was a young talent, don't you want to think about who gave you the face that your old man earned? ”

Old Man Li was angry, and said with a smile while crying: "You don't want to think about it, how much money our family spent and how much Cuihua helped when you took the exam." Look at it, look at your third brother, they are working and studying at the same time, and they haven't even handed over Shu Xiu, so they don't come back until they take the test. I can see it clearly, I was blindfolded by your mother and mother back then, if it was your brothers who studied back then, now our family is the worst, and it is also a family. Young talents, the scenery is immeasurable, what have you earned for our family, real? What's there? Tell me about it? What did we have in our family before we separated? You see, now that we have split up, my father has some money in hand, and in the past, my father never had a life with money in hand. ”

Recently, many people praised Li Zhu in front of Li Dao, and his father-in-law even mentioned more than once that he wanted to hire Li Zhu to teach in the academy, but Li Dao shirked it on the grounds that Li Zhu did not like it. Now my father belittles himself openly and secretly, praises him, and says that he has deprived the family of money, which makes him feel extremely uncomfortable. What's good about you is a good skin, I haven't read a few books, I squat in the ground every day, I don't know a single celebrity, and I am the one who makes a face for my family outside.

The more Li Dao thought about it, the more angry his heart became, his mind was hot, and he yelled at Old Man Li: "You all praise each other, don't forget, I am also a talent." I've been in Xiucai for many years, and I've been reading books all the time. If you want to lift people to shine brightly, you don't have to rely on me. Other people's families are a lifter, and they don't know how much to invest. Friends around me, which family does not give dozens of taels of odds. As far as our family is concerned, they don't care about me, and they want me to serve my mother closely. I also need my help with the second sister in the family. In other people's families, they don't dare to bother Xiucai with anything, just waiting for him to take the exam, get an official, and bring the whole family. ”

Everyone listened to Li Dao's roar, but they didn't react for a while, and looked at Li Dao stupidly.

This place is close to Li Zhu's house, and Li Zhu's children heard Li Dao's roar and looked out of the courtyard in surprise. Li Hai frowned, and Binbin said with a smile: "Mother, if you win the show and have dozens of taels of money every month, you don't have to do anything, no wonder so many people want to take the test." ”

Deng scolded in a low voice: "There is no such thing, look at your uncle and grandfather, how can you not work?" What your second uncle said should be a rich family, and a rich family also has to collect a rent every year and check the shop every month, and he said that he doesn't work, maybe when people are working, he can't see it and says so. ”

Li Bo pursed his lips and said, "He must have thought that he had to farm with his back to the sky and his face to the ground." ”

Li Tao smiled and said, "The second uncle doesn't know what other businessmen do? ”

Lehi continued: "That's good, so that he doesn't know the quality of our shop." ”

When Deng Chi heard this, he interjected: "What if you know?" This is what I bought with my own money after the separation, and it has nothing to do with your second uncle. ”

Binbin nodded and said: "That's the case, Brother Hai, Brother Tao, Brother Bo, let's buy things in the future, buy a piece of land and buy a shop, so that the second uncle will think that the shop is cheap, otherwise we won't buy it wrong." ”

Brother Li Hai nodded happily after hearing this. Deng Chi hugged Binbin, and every time Binbin mentioned something weird, his eyes would sparkle.

Deng listened and nodded, very relieved that all the children in the family were assertive.

Back in the courtyard, the more Li Dao spoke, the more he felt that his family was justified, and slowly lowered his voice, and said to Master Li, Li Yu, and Li Zhu confidently: "The academy is short of silver, so we will raise money from our husband." It is a great good deed for us to help, and it is a great way to accumulate virtue. The eldest brother's family has no money, and if there are pigs, they should produce pigs. Dad can't eat a lot alone, and he has the eldest brother and third brother to serve, and he eats with the eldest brother, third brother, and eldest sister, and he can't spend money. The land that my father is planting and the pigs he raises now are not needed, so he can sell them and make up a share. The younger brothers are talented, and they will be promoted in the future, don't always associate with the uncle's family, follow the things that businessmen do, and belittle their own identities in vain. The third brother, you sell the shop in the town, and use the money from the sale of the shop to make a share. I've heard people say that you bought dozens of acres of mountainous land, and your family is small, so you can't plant so much, so you can sell some of it to make our family's share bigger. In this way, our Li family is a big part, and it is also a decent thing outside, and it has accumulated virtue. Next year, maybe I'll be able to come back with one of them. ”

When everyone heard this, they were all angry, what is going on? How did Li Dao divide all his own things?

When Old Man Li heard this, he sighed deeply, and at this time, as if he had figured it out, he stopped crying, and said to Li Dao: "You go to sleep, Ming'er, my eldest brother will go home with you, and bring your mother back, our Li family will not have your son in the future." ”

As soon as Li Dao heard this, he was dumbfounded on the spot, and it took a while to come back to his senses, and whispered to Old Man Li: "Dad, you are drunk, what are you talking about." I am Xiucai, and this identity alone is the glory of the ancestors. Dad, if you don't recognize this, the ancestors of our old Li family won't spare you. ”

Old Man Li looked at Li Dao with a blank look and said, "Tell me, tell me what trouble happened outside this time?" Don't settle for any accumulation of virtue, what to raise funds for the college, you are all under the guise. Go and see which college is short of silver, and those big landlords, which one of them does not rush to give the college silver. ”

Li Dao sighed, glanced at everyone, thought for a while, and said, "Dad, it's true that I've been short of money recently, but the academy I'm in, Xiyue Academy, is short of money, and it's true." It's not that my father-in-law didn't think of recruiting from the landlord. However, now that the rich are bent on going to Min'er's father, Deng Juren's academy, how can he raise money? ”

Li Yu and Li Zhu looked at Li Dao in surprise after hearing this, Li Dao sighed, touched the wine jug, opened it, poured a glass and drank it all, and said quietly and slowly: "Deng Juren invited Zhao Yu to sit in the academy. Now, those who are knowledgeable and rich all want to become the disciples of Zhao Yu's bachelors, not only to study and have fewer crooked paths, but also to lead the way in the future. ”

After hearing this, Li Zhu shook his head and said, "How can these people's disciples be so easy to worship." ”

Li Dao continued: "Everyone knows this. Zhao Yu didn't accept disciples, but he lectured at Deng Juren's academy three times a month, and many people transferred to our town's academy for this. ”

Old Man Li snorted and said, "Don't be bluffing, how can an academy keep recruiting people?" How can an academy have fewer students and fewer students? ”

Li Dao sighed, poured himself a glass of wine, and said, "The dean is uncomfortable, and he also learns to invite a good gentleman." Last month, after several inquiries, there was a royal bachelor, who gave direct advice and left the court. Bah, he agreed to go to the academy for three classes a month, and one class cost a thousand taels of silver. The dean said that he had just left the court, was famous, and had connections in the court. Our small colleges, where did they get so much money, and the dean made this decision. said that in the future, recruit more children from rich families to fill this hole. Now everyone do me a favor. Anyone who has paid for it can enter our college in the future. ”

Li Yu snorted and said, "We have an academy in our own town, so we will definitely not go to your side." ”

Li Zhu thought for a while and said to Li Dao: "Second brother, you invited someone who left the dynasty to give a lecture, have you asked him if he has any ideas, whether he wants to return to the court." This is so expensive, eighty percent of them want to fight with the Son of Heaven. If something happens, you're not harming his students. The academy is also going to be affected. This is a part that our family can't get together. What's more, our family doesn't have any money to make now. ”

Li Dao is a young talent, in the past few years, he has only learned to eat, drink, prostitute and play, and abandoned his studies, but he is a smart person, listening to Li Zhu say this, after thinking about it, he is also transparent, and he is shocked into a cold sweat.

Li Dao said to himself: "How is this good, father-in-law, now I am determined to invite someone." What can I do? ”

Li Zhu thought for a while and said, "Second brother, you talk to the second sister-in-law." Let the second sister-in-law go home and talk to her father. Her father is a girl who loves his daughter, and he may be able to listen to it. Moreover, there are only a limited number of students that can be accepted in one college, and there must be students in your neighboring town. This is not a merchant's business, and it can be robbed. ”

Li Dao nodded while listening, and for the first time, he looked at Li Zhu deeply.

I saw that Li Zhu's face was like a crown of jade, his eyebrows were clear, and his eyes were bright now, like a star in the night. Li Dao suddenly remembered what Li Zhu had done recently, what he had done before, and suddenly felt that perhaps, a person like Li Zhu who was like an immortal might have the ability to see through things. Otherwise, before the war, the market was silent, and suddenly reminded himself to store grain. (Wei Yu: Maybe I was drunk and forgot that Li Zhu said that he got the letter from Deng Juren.) )

People are like this, if they think he is good, everything is good, anyway, all the good things are added to Li Zhu.

Li Dao thought about it and made a long call to Li Zhu. Li Dao's move made Li Zhu jump in fright. Li Yu pulled Li Zhu to his side and avoided Li Dao's thanks. Old Man Li shook his head strangely and asked, "I'm drunk with both glasses, and it's too undrunk." ”

After Li Dao heard this, he said thank you while pretending to faint, so that his face looked better, no matter how he said it, what he did before was indeed not very worthy of Li Zhu's family.

Li Yu shook his head after seeing it, and carried Li Dao back to Wu's second sister-in-law's house.

Li Zhu looked at the background of the two elder brothers, smiled, knowing that the second brother would not suddenly make a mistake, his heart was relieved, and while helping the old man Li back to the room, he said to the old man Li: "Dad, don't worry, after the second brother wakes up, he won't think about money." ”

Old Man Li nodded, and said, "Zhu, just now, I listened to what you said to your second brother, but I don't know very well. Tell me about them all. ”

Li Zhu nodded with a smile and said, "Just now the second brother said that his father-in-law wanted to invite a royal scholar who had just retired from the dynasty to be his master, but this one wants to receive a thousand taels and one lesson, which is almost the time for two pillars of incense." ”

Old Man Li was surprised when he heard this: "This is too expensive. ”

Li Zhu continued: "That's the case, the imperial scholars who have retired from the court, the court still has monthly money, and there is also another reward, and the court has also invited someone to serve." Generally, when they come out to give lectures, they don't take a penny. And this person not only collects money, but also 1,210 or two pillars of incense, there is only one possibility, that is, he is in urgent need of money, and he doesn't need money to eat, where is he short of money? There are two possibilities, one is to return to the dynasty, and the second is to fight with the Son of Heaven. If you want to return to the court, then you should teach and educate people without collecting a penny, when Taoyuan is full of courts, how can you not return to the court? He received such an expensive amount, eighty percent of it was because he wanted to fight with the Son of Heaven. Dad, if you say such a thing, of course we have to stop it. Not only can't you do it, you can't even think about it. ”

After hearing this, the old man Li was shocked into a sweat, and his legs and feet suddenly became unstable, and he stumbled, staggered, and staggered into the hall, and Li Zhu hurriedly helped the old man Li to the chair and sat down. (To be continued.) )
