Eighty-six: Trouble
The young girl was about to be ruined, the reason was because she coerced and lured her to report the news, Song Jue was a well-educated son of the family after all, and she was soft-hearted, so she couldn't see that she had really ruined her life like this, and she was soft-hearted for a while.

But he soon discovered the great trouble that his momentary intolerance had brought about.
Three days later, the eldest and second masters of the Li family came to the door to see their niece, and they refused to even take a sip of tea, let alone listen to Song Jue.
"I've never seen anything like that!" Master Li looked at Song Jue with a dumb voice, and described him as a little impatient: "It's been almost two months since my niece came back, and we haven't seen each other yet." Every time you come back, you don't let people see it, what kind of rule is this? I know that my sister has done something wrong, but A-Ning is not her daughter alone, she is also a girl of your Song family, is it too much for you to treat her like this? ”
Second Master Li is much gentler than Master Li, frowning and waiting for Master Li to finish speaking, he looked at Song Jue with a pleasant face: "Although what my eldest brother said is more serious, it is not completely unreasonable. Even if our two families can't become in-laws, they should always be considered world friends. Now you treat a girl so harshly, and you don't even let us outsiders see you, it's really a bit unkind. Seeing that the Chinese New Year is coming, she is so sick that she can't come to send her to another house for many years, are you still afraid that we will see her? ”
A brand-new lantern had been hung outside the uncle's mansion, and the north wind was blowing and shaking violently, Song Jue glanced out the window, and after thinking carefully, he took out the words of the imperial doctor: "The two uncles forgive me, it's really not that you two don't want to see you." It's just that Hachi's illness may be contagious if she is not careful......"
Master Li finally sneered, and threw out a sentence condescendingly from some elders to the arrogance of the juniors: "It's really hard to say whether it's a real illness or a fake disease." What's more, those of us who are uncles, don't look at her just because she is seriously ill? A few days ago, the fire in Bofu has been rumored in the streets, and I heard that the direction is where A-Ning lives, what kind of fame are you doing in Changning Bofu? ! ”
"Hear someone? I don't know who I listened to? Master Song pushed the door in, and the clothes on his body had not been changed, and he glanced at both of the Li family, and then followed up and asked: "Speaking of this, I was just about to ask my uncle about you, we sent someone to check, and learned that the news of the fire in Bofu came from the mouth of a storyteller in Juyi Building, and the storyteller said that it was revealed to him by a kitchen steward in your house.....
Master Song was rarely a little aggressive, and he sneered and asked: "We also want to ask the two uncles what is going on, who knows that the two of you are here to ask the master first." ”
Master Li glanced at Second Master Li in astonishment, lowered his head and coughed a few times, his face was hot and felt a little embarrassed, but he remembered the old lady's instructions, and still hardened his head and defended a few times: "That's also because you stopped us from seeing people!" Now that we don't even know whether people are dead or alive, and you are doing everything possible to prevent us from seeing them, what else can we do? ”
"So you slander our uncle's house and set fire to your own girl?" Master Song waved his hand to interrupt Second Master Li's rebuttal, and glanced at them meaningfully: "Some words are too careful, flash your tongue, our uncle's mansion has saved enough face for your Li family, and you also know what is going on in the fire that our family shocked the Five Cities Terracotta Division last time." If we are really forced to tear our faces, our family will certainly lose face, but your family is not only so serious about losing face, don't you say? ”
Now that Mrs. Song and Mrs. Song are not in the capital, the attitude of Mrs. Song represents the attitude of the Song family. Master Li and Second Master Li still didn't have enough courage to tear their faces and left the Song family in a huff.
They also have children under their knees, and their daughters are already engaged, if Song Chuning's matter spreads, the Song family will certainly be embarrassed, but the Li family is far more than just a disgrace.
They can't afford to take this risk----- His Royal Highness the grandson of the East Palace and another His Royal Highness are about to choose Mr., and it is very likely that there will be Old Lady Li among the candidates, if the news of Song Chuning is spread at this time, it will be more than worth the loss.
Second Master Li sighed and looked at his father, and snorted a little disappreciatively: "Speaking of which, she is too ruthless, and she never knows how to leave room for doing things." The Song family doesn't know that Song Yi also has her share, if she knows......"
"Shut up!" The pen in Mrs. Li's hand was thrown at him, and her beard was so angry that she was angry: "You can also say this?" If you drink two cups of yellow soup outside, you will start talking nonsense, I think you have a few lives to fill! What happened to Song Yi? He made his own mistake and was played by the imperial history, what is the matter with Aning, and what is the matter with our family? ! It's too late for others to clear it up, but you'll put the basin on your head! ”
Second Master Li has always been afraid of his father like a tiger, and when he saw that Old Master Li was so angry, although he was still a little unconvinced, he didn't dare to argue anymore.
Master Li came out to be a peacemaker: "Second brother, he is measured, he won't say this kind of thing outside." He saw that Old Lady Li's expression was slightly softened, so he continued: "Father, I think what the second brother said is also reasonable, we can't really tear our faces with Changning Bofu completely for the sake of a little eight...... You can become the future emperor before you see it......"
Old Lady Li glared at the two brothers with a gloomy face, sat in the circle chair and sighed deeply: "How can it be as simple as you think?" Xiaoba helped us get in touch with Duanwang, and now our family relies on Duanwang to do business outside the border, do you think we can get out if we want to? ”
If it weren't for King Duan's hint that he wanted him to keep Song Chuning, he wouldn't have to risk completely tearing his face with Bofu and going to the door several times to dislike people.
What's more, after receiving the news, he may not be able to become the official of the grandson----- the prince seems to be more interested in Lu Mengting, the secretary of the country.
"Then there's no other way? Duanwang is good, but the prince's body is getting better day by day......" Second Master Li was a little anxious: "Is it possible to be tied to Duanwang's boat for the sake of the interests outside the gate?" ”
Master Li was also very upset: "What you said is simple, now if you want to break up the gang, do you know how many troubles will follow?" What's more, you don't know the situation of our family, if you don't have the expenses of the business outside the customs, I am afraid that it will ......be difficult to make ends meet." )
