Chapter 217: Maintenance

Li Xiaotong almost had a big accident today because of her willfulness, she bit her lip, stood there cautiously, looked up from time to time to peek at her sister who had a sinking face and didn't speak, rubbed the soles of her feet forward, rubbed again, and finally couldn't help it, "Wow" cried and threw herself into her arms, desperately hugged her and pleaded, "Sister, I was wrong, you scolded me, no, you beat me...... I don't dare anymore...... Woo woo, I shouldn't be jealous of you...... I was wrong......"

Li Xiaoran looked at her silently for a while, seeing that she was crying sadly, it was not the kind of pretense she used to be, knowing that today's incident had taught her a lesson, this sister was brought up by herself, seeing that she had been crying for so long, her heart softened, and she sighed and said: "Don't cry, I hope you are really scared, and it is good to know that it is powerful." ”

Li Xiaotong kept nodding, "I know sister, there are too many bad people here, let's go home!" ”

"Back to what's home? This is where we will be from now on. She nodded her sister's forehead, shook her head a little sadly and said, "Your words today hurt my sister's heart too much......"

Li Xiaotong was anxious when she heard this, and grabbed her shirt and begged: "Sister, I was wrong, sister, don't be angry, don't ignore me......"

A young voice came with a deep displeasure, "Oh, why are you upsetting your sister?" Li Xuejian walked in from the outside quickly, and after listening to the report of the next person, he hurried back, and walked in a hurry, his forehead was oozing with sweat.

He has always been gentle, his face was calm, his eyes were sharp, he stared at Li Xiaotong and asked again: "Why did you make your sister unhappy?" Well? The last word accentuated the tone, with a chill. made Li Xiaotong shudder involuntarily.

She was a little dazed, she was pampered by her brothers and sisters since she was a child, whether it was her mother or her brothers and sisters, she had never been so indifferent to her, she shrunk her neck, and muttered with some fear and grievance: "No, no." ”

"I don't know gratitude, I don't argue right and wrong, and I don't take responsibility." Li Xuejian snorted coldly, "Go back and be grounded for a month." Copy the Book of Filial Piety a hundred times. Think about what you did wrong. In the future, without my words, you are not allowed to leave the house without permission. ”

Now the Li family is Li Xuejian in charge. He is usually easy-going. But this one is angry. It's also quite scary. Li Xiaotong's eyes were red, and she looked at her sister pitifully, hoping that she could plead for herself. But Li Xiaoran didn't speak, just looked at her calmly, and the calm in her eyes was like a deep pool of ancient wells, so that people couldn't see inside. She looked at the inexplicable panic in her heart, as if if she was disobedient, she would lose something from now on, she bit her lip and lowered her head, and whispered yes.

Sending someone to send her back to his yard, Li Xuejian sat down next to Li Xiaoran, "Ran'er, she is not sensible, don't take her words to heart." ”

Li Xiaoran gave him a blank look, "She is also my sister." ”

Li Xuejian smiled gently, "I know, she, alas, it was also because we spoiled her that we developed her temperament, and in the future, we can't follow her temperament, otherwise, this is not for her good, but for her." ”

She agrees. She nodded, reached out and took the teapot, poured a cup of tea for the second brother, and told Gu Congming about it, Li Xuejian held the teacup and said in a deep voice: "I didn't expect us to have such a relationship with him, so let's go tomorrow, anyway, he saved my little sister, how can our family go and express gratitude." ”

Fu Shi came back to see how his little daughter was, and just walked into the house, he happened to hear this, and hurriedly said: "You go and inquire, is this Gu Gongzi married, and who else is there in the family?" ”

The eyes of the two of them shot towards Fu Shi, she was stared at by the burning eyes of her children, and explained a little uncomfortably: "That, he, he saved Tong'er, Tong'er's reputation, that, it's nothing to ask about one!" ”

Li Xiaoran raised his forehead, "Mother, if a person named Huazi saved Tong'er, you also inquire about whether people are married?" ”

Fu Shi was stunned, and only smiled bitterly for a long time: "It's the mother's snobbery, forget it, don't mention it." ”

What Li Xiaoran hates the most is the idea of "I saved you, you lost your reputation, and I have to be responsible", seeing that her mother figured it out, she didn't say anything more. Li Xuejian's eyebrows furrowed tightly, and he asked Fu: "Mother, it won't be Tong'er who asked you to ask, right?" ”

Fu Shi said angrily: "You just think of your little sister like this, although she is a little willful, but she will not be so faceless, it's me, look at that Gu Gongzi's talent, and the son of the world, that's why I remembered to ask you." ”

She subconsciously hid Li Xiaotong's strangeness when she introduced Gu Gongzi, and even Li Xiaoran did not doubt it.

In the evening, Yong Ning was busy with official business, so he didn't come over, but asked Ning Cheng to bring a box with a black pearl necklace the size of lotus seeds and a letter.

She glanced at the necklace, the corners of her mouth rose slightly, first picked up the letter and opened it, sure enough, the letter said: When I saw this necklace, I remembered your necklace before, and I felt that it was very similar, very fateful, and you must be very beautiful when you wear it.

Her smile became brighter and brighter, her brother had bought her such a necklace of black pearls in her previous life, she liked it very much, she wore it on her wrist in summer, and she wore a few strings of black pearls on her white jade cream-like wrist, black and white, and her skin was like coagulation, and her brother often laughed and said that she was like this, and she was simply fatally tempted to him, so that he could not extricate himself.

She continued to read it, and Yong Ning said in the letter that he already knew what happened today, so let her not worry about it, leave this matter to him, and he would teach the Wu family a lesson.

She looked at it and frowned, the reason why she didn't let people tell him was because she didn't want him to make a move, no matter what, the Wu family was always his subordinate, and he couldn't let the courtiers chill his heart.

Ning Cheng bowed slightly, and reported to her carefully: "Master said, this Wu family just relies on his identity as an old minister, like this kind of courtier who relies on the old and sells the old, if he doesn't knock out his fangs, next time he is afraid that he will pounce on us and give us a mouthful, so, please don't worry, this is also a warning, with this warning, those restless courtiers will be obedient." ”

She doesn't care about these checks and balances, since her brother said that it is feasible, then she has made a note of his maintenance of her, and it is good to listen to him. She picked up the pen, wrote a letter to him, thought about it, and picked up the charcoal next to her and drew a stick figure: an innocent and lovely little girl, wearing a string of black pearl necklaces on her hand, smiled sweetly at the boy in front of her, the smile was sweet and innocent, so that the people who saw this painting couldn't help but feel happy.

Ning Cheng took the painting and left, and couldn't help but glance at her before leaving, I really didn't expect that a little girl like her would let her master put it on the tip of her heart like this, Wu family, it's over! (To be continued......)
