Chapter 500: Flesh and Blood

Chengxian Street, Shenjing East City, Li Mansion.

This is only a stone's throw away from Guozijian.

In the past, there was a lot of talk and laughter, and there was no white Ding in the Li Mansion, but today the gate and corner gate are closed.

The guards went to knock on the door, and after a while, a word came from inside: "The master has no outsiders today, please come back." Another day, the lord will personally give you an annoyance. ”

The guard said loudly: "Our Hou Ye sent the grandmother of Rongfu back to her parents' house to save her relatives, open the door quickly." ”

As soon as these words came out, there was silence for a while, and then he said, "It turned out that the eldest aunt and grandmother came back, but it was just ...... Distinguished guests, please wait first, and the small ones will report to the old lady. ”

With that, hurry inside.

After the tea, the door opened, and three men from the Li family dressed in Confucian clothes greeted them.

Jia Qiang also turned over and dismounted, stepped forward, and arched his hand: "Ben Hou came today to escort the eldest aunt to see Mrs. Li Jiatai. ”

The men of the Li family saw that he looked cold, and did not meet him with a junior courtesy, and they were a little unhappy in their hearts.

However, when I thought that Li Shouzhong came back from the previous year, he was rudely escorted back by two personal soldiers, and I knew that this person did not regard the Li family as a serious relative.

In addition, there was fear in my heart, so I didn't say anything and invited in.

Li Kun's carriage traveled all the way to the front of the second gate, although the Li family is far from being rich, but it is also a family of generations of hairpins and poetry, so the Li Mansion is not shabby.

There are bamboo stones and poems engraved everywhere, revealing the fragrance of literature and ink.

After Li Kun got out of the car in front of the second gate, he looked at the three Li family men with a faint excitement, curtsied his knees, and said with tears in his eyes: "Say hello to the second master, eldest brother, and second brother." ”

These three people are Li Kun's uncles and two brothers.

The three of them saw Li Kun, who was dressed in a bland, plain clothes, without powder, and full of spirit, and they were also moved.

The Li family has strict rules of etiquette, the water spilled by the married daughter, Jia Zhu is good in fashion, Li Kun and Jia Zhu accompany him back to his parents' house to meet his relatives.

But after Jia Zhu died, Li Shouzhong strictly ordered Li Kun to be a widow in Jia's family with peace of mind, and he also kept the etiquette and chastity, and he never dared to think about going home and remarrying.

In order to cut off her thoughts, she was not even allowed to return to her mother's house.

This kind of thing is not uncommon in the so-called Confucian family of poetry and rite heirlooms.

After the death of her husband, except for Jia Lan, Li Kun's heart was as lifeless as ashes, and her mother's family contributed more than half of her strength......

After the three men of the Li family were excited, they were a little worried, and said to Li Kun: "The old man didn't know that you came back, it was the old lady who let you and ...... Ning Hou came in. ”

When Li Kun heard this, his heart was cold, he smiled reluctantly, and said, "It was also to see the old lady......

Jia Qiang didn't want to delay for a long time, it really didn't make sense to talk to these people, and said, "Auntie, let's go see Mrs. Tai first." ”

Li Kun also saw that Jia Qiang didn't like the Li family, and felt sad, but she didn't want to disobey, so she went to the Li family's Ming Heart Hall.

Such an attitude made Li Kun's two brothers very dissatisfied.

In their opinion, the Li family can also be regarded as Jia Qiang's elders, and besides, the Li family married a daughter into the Jia family, and insisted that she keep the festival, isn't it also for the good of the Jia family?

But I didn't expect to be so ungrateful!

They don't know that now in Jia Qiang's heart, people like them who read and read books and even lose their humanity are really difficult to get close to.

If Jia Qiang takes a step back today, these people will dare to take up the identity of their relatives and preach to him.

Moreover, Jia Qiang remembered that in the original world, in another two or three years, the Li family would have Li Kun's widowed aunt and two daughters to go to Beijing to defect.

Jia Qiang didn't know how Li Shouzhong lost his official position in the original world, why he returned to Jinling Nanjing with his family, and he didn't know how Li Kun, the second uncle, died in front of him......

But most of them are also involved in things that they shouldn't be involved in.

If a man is bent on death, who can stop him?

Jia Qiang didn't have the heart to clean up the mess for the Li family again.

It is better to draw clear distances and boundaries as early as possible.

……

Li Jiaming's heart is on the hall.

Li Kun's biological mother died early since he was a child, and his stepmother was not close.

It was Mrs. Li who raised her single-handedly, and added a lot of dowry, marrying her into the Jia family with dignity.

originally thought it was a good marriage that was unparalleled in the world, but Jia Zhu died early, leaving Li Kun alone to observe the festival and pull Jia Lan.

Even more so that she can't go back even if she has a mother's home, so far, she hasn't seen her for five or six years.

Seeing it today, Li Kun couldn't even speak, only knelt at the feet of Mrs. Tai, tears raining down.

Mrs. Li Jiatai is white-haired, she is a thin old lady, and when she sees Li Kun at this moment, she is also excited and tearful, holding her granddaughter with trembling hands, looking at her oligo-vegetarian clothes, it seems to have a heartache.

After a long while, under the persuasion of the two wives of the Li family, Mrs. Li and Li Kun finally let go of their hands.

Jia Qiangfang stepped forward to greet him, and then said: "Mrs. Tai, the eldest aunt is filial to the old lady and aunt in the Jia family, and she leads a group of Jia family sisters to study and learn to be popular on weekdays, and she also raises Jia Lan. No one in the Jia family does not respect his virtue and does not miss his filial piety. Sending the eldest aunt back to the Li family and returning to the province today is also the intention of our Mrs. Jiajia. The Jia family respects the aunt's heart of observance, but they don't want her to break off this family relationship with the Li family. The two families are not very far apart, and there is no reason to isolate their relatives, so that the flesh and blood do not see each other. This time, if it weren't for the fact that the eldest aunt was really worried about Li Xianjiu in her heart, she wouldn't dare to come back, which really didn't make sense. ”

When these words fell into the ears of the Li family, they felt a little harsh.

In their opinion, the Li family did this not only for the sake of the Li family's reputation and reputation, but also for the Jia family.

The Jia family is now good and still talks cool things, which is really not a son of man.

However, Mrs. Li Jiatai was still happy, after all, with Jia Qiang's words, Li Kun would return to her parents' house in the future, at least the resistance from the Jia family would be gone.

She held Li Kun's hand tightly and said, "Okay! All right! Since your husband's family is so open-minded and righteous, then I'll talk to my lord about it later. How many more years will I live? I haven't seen you many times, and I can't close my eyes tightly. ”

When Li Kun heard this, he cried again.

After a while, Li Kun's stepmother Yan smiled and said, "Girl, don't cry, the old lady will cry too." The old lady's eyes are not very good now, and Lang Zhong said, it's not good to shed more tears. ”

When Li Kun heard this, he hurriedly took a handkerchief to stop his tears, and said with a forced smile: "Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry the old lady." ”

Mrs. Li patted her hands, still sad in her heart.

After waiting for a while, seeing that Mrs. Li didn't mean to speak, Yan said a little anxiously on the side: "Big girl, what's going on over there?" How can a good person be looked at with his own soldiers? What is this? ”

When Li Kun heard this, after looking at Yan's family, he said to Mrs. Li Jiatai: "Old lady, I came back without permission today for the sake of my lord." The emperor died in the palace, and the lord was instigated by the traitor, thinking that there was a terrifying conspiracy inside, so he asked the prisoners of the national prison to jointly write a letter to ask the court to seek justice for the emperor. Because this matter involved Lan'er and his grandfather, he was the first to be recognized by Qiang'er. Now that there are all human and material evidence, there are indeed villains plotting behind the scenes, wanting to cause my father and my father-in-law to be involved in a big case and cause the disaster of raiding the family and destroying the family. Qiang'er arrested the gangsters behind her and imprisoned them, but sent the old man back to the Li family, and for this reason, she also suffered a lot of hangings in front of the emperor, saying that he bent the law for personal gain. Old lady, Qiang'er can only contribute once at most, if the old man still doesn't change that terrifying idea, and something happens again, I'm afraid that the entire Li family will be difficult to preserve. ”

"Huh?"

These words scared the relatives of the Li family a lot.

Mrs. Li Jiatai was also frightened when she heard this, she looked carefully at Li Kun, who was anxious, and then looked at Jia Qiang in the hall, and stood up after a few looks.

When she stopped, the two wives of the Li family also stood up.

Then I saw Mrs. Li Jiatai and Jia Qiang salute......

Jia Qiang avoided this salute and said, "Mrs. Tai doesn't have to be like this. For the sake of the eldest aunt, I will not see Li Xianjiu being stabbed and ending up in the Yi clan. It's just that yesterday the emperor personally warned me that this is only one time, and not the next one. If Li Xijiu did anything to break the sky, the Jia family would be powerless.

I really don't know how to persuade Li Xianjiu, the human and material evidence is in front of me, and he still doesn't believe me, but he doesn't believe those evil people who harbor evil intentions. In addition, the emperor has previously issued a decree that the Zongren Mansion, Dali Temple, the Criminal Department and the Metropolitan Procuratorate will jointly examine all suspicious people and suspicious things. As a result, the four major ministries jointly reviewed the case, and the case was closed without even a day and a night.

There are so many elite old people who handle cases, they all think that there is really nothing suspicious. In this way, there are still traitors outside who are agitating conspiracy theories, saying that the emperor is not dying. In this case, the ignorant grass people in the market can say, but the country prince can't say the sacrificial wine. The Li family is also a family of eunuchs for generations, and they should understand how vicious the people who instigated Li to make trouble about this matter. If Li Xijiu still doesn't change, the next time the eldest aunt will see you again, I'm afraid she will have to go to the Jiaofang Division to see you. ”

These words almost scared the souls of the Li family's relatives away.

Li Kun said to Mrs. Li: "Old lady, Qiang'er and I won't go to see the master today, for fear that he won't be able to wipe off his face." The old lady must be good at persuading the old man, even if she doesn't think about others, she must think about the old lady. I won't stay much today, and when the old man changes his mind, if he can still allow me to go home, I will bring Lan'er to see my great-grandmother again. ”

After that, he burst into tears again.

Although Mrs. Li Jiatai's heart was like a knife, she also knew the seriousness of the matter, she stroked Li Kun's sideburns and said, "Thanks to you, I still miss my mother's family and me." It's hard to get together today, but it's so short...... Rest assured, this time I will persuade your father to allow you to come home often. ”

After Li Kun cried and said goodbye to the two Li family wives, Fang shed tears all the way, walked out of Mingxin Hall, returned to the carriage, and lay on the seat in the carriage and wept silently.

The most miserable person in the world is the separation of relatives and not seeing each other.

Li Kun is different from others, she has been bumpy in this half of her life, and she can endure it for Jia Lan on weekdays.

But today, when I saw Mrs. Li Jiatai, who loved her the most, and left in a hurry, how could I not feel pain in my heart?

Jia Qiang rode on the horse, approached the side of the car, and gently persuaded: "Auntie really doesn't have to be like this, just walk around more in the future." ”

Li Kun suppressed the sadness in his heart in the car, forced a smile, and said gratefully: "Brother Qiang, thanks to you today, Lan'er and I owe you a lot, and I don't know how to repay ......."

Jia Qiang sighed and said, "Family, what do you want to talk about?" Auntie, the days are still long, and life will get better and better in the future. There is no need to worry about sorrow, and just take your time. Live your life well, and you will live up to my thoughts. ”

"Thank you, Qiang'er."

……

Rongguo Mansion, Rongqing Hall.

Seeing Jia Qiang and Li Kun who had returned, Jia Mu said curiously: "Why did you come back sooner or later?" ”

Jia Qiang said: "It's going to be dark soon, if you don't come back at this time, will you still be able to eat at Li's house?" ”

Mother Jia said angrily: "Your aunt rarely goes home once in a few years, and this time I take the opportunity to go back, so you urge her to come back early?" ”

Jia Qiang gasped and said, "Old lady, you really know how to make something out of nothing!" How much have I urged? ”

Li Kun's eyes were a little red and swollen, and when he heard this, he hurriedly smiled and said: "I myself wanted to come back earlier, and now the sisters in the family are not there, not even the Feng girl, only the old lady and the wife are at home, how can I rest assured that I can ...... it?"

When Jia Mu heard this, she sighed with relief: "You finally went home once, why should you worry about us?" There are so many mothers-in-law, daughters-in-law and maids in the family, can they still starve us? If it doesn't work, we can still partner with my aunt! It just so happens that the baby girl is not here now. ”

Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue both laughed, and Dubaoyu was not willing to give up.

Waiting for Li Kun to explain again, Mrs. Li Jiatai still had to persuade Li Shouzhong, not to disturb too much, and said that Jia Qiang said that she could often go home to see it in the future......

When Jia Mu heard this, she asked Jia Qiang with a smile, "When did I tell you?" ”

Jia Qiang snorted and said, "The old lady has always been partial to the eldest aunt, and she also values the love of flesh and blood, so I guess the old lady will never allow it." ”

Mother Jia smiled at Aunt Xue and said, "This monkey will squeeze people with good words." Now that he's done, what else can I say? ”

Aunt Xue smiled: "It's also right, it's not that I compliment the old lady, I've also seen so many Mrs. Fate, it's really rare to see someone as reasonable as the old lady." ”

Mother Jia waved her hand and said, "Who is not a parent, and who is not a child?" Even the palace has allowed the concubine to save her relatives, how can we still be restrained? In fact, the original did not stop it, but on the side of the in-laws, the etiquette was heavier than that of the Jia family. As long as they are willing to let in the door, there is no reason for the Jia family not to allow it. ”

Li Kun thanked him again and again.

After a lot of excitement, Jia Mu asked Jia Qiang: "By the way, how is the garden behind?" ”

Jia Qiang said: "It's been being built, and a lot of silver has been spilled out, and now it's a big construction site behind it...... The old lady walked back, and she could hear the movement. ”

Aunt Xue also smiled: "I can hear the sound over there, it's very lively." ”

Jia Mu smiled with satisfaction: "I listen to any movement, don't delay and save relatives." By the way, when will they come back? If you don't come back in a hurry, you can send Baoyu over again. What is the only one in the family? I'm sullen all day, and I'm wronged! ”

Jia Qiang twitched the corners of her mouth and said, "Don't stay any longer, I'll pick up people in a while, and I'll be home tomorrow." ”

When Baoyu heard this, her eyes lit up, and she hurriedly said, "I'll go with you to pick it up, how about it?" ”

Jia Qiang smiled: "Okay! Originally, I was going to let them stubborn for a few more nights, not wanting an unknown gangster to attack Zhuangzi last night, although they were repulsed, but I still can't rest assured, I'll pick them up today. Baoyu went together, one more person, one more force. By the way, how are your riding and archery skills? Don't forget to bring your bow and arrows, if you do get attacked, you can do your part! ”

"Don't go!"

"It's night, Baoyu is gone! It's not naughty, you have to go, you asked the master first! ”

Jia Baoyu: "......"

Jia Qiang laughed and turned to leave.

If you're going to take a hot spring tonight, wouldn't it be a disappointment to bring this silly melon?
