As soon as you enter the city of Ningzhou, you will see a happy and peaceful scene. The shops and lintels along the street have been freshly painted, and red lanterns are hung in front of every house to symbolize peace and tranquility. The street is full of people, the market is very lively, the people are happily purchasing New Year's goods, shouting and selling one after another, filling people's eardrums.

Seeing this lively scene of universal celebration, Li Yi couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion. Since the rebellion of Sun Decheng and Wang Chuan was put down and the victims of southern Sichuan were accepted, the scene of Yunnan has changed with each passing day, and the common people have lived and worked in peace and contentment.

Although the new policy has just been implemented, and the people have not yet felt the real benefits, due to the political harmony and social stability, the people even if they are not rich, they sincerely feel happy and spiritually satisfied, and have a beautiful vision and expectation for the future life.

As long as the next step is to benefit all the people, the people's morale will be smoother, and they will be more supportive of what the Yunnan government has done. With the support of the people, what else can't be done!

Riding a horse back to the Xuanfu Embassy, Li Yi went straight to the backyard after explaining all the affairs. These days, I have been working on the reform of the New Deal, and I am so busy that I can only go home to rest and eat.

It's like being pregnant for more than seven months, but I can't stay by her side all the time to take care of her, accompany her to face the most important time in her life, and I always feel sorry for her in my heart.

Alas! There is no way to do this, she doesn't belong to her alone now, the whole of Yunnan needs herself, Li Yi feels that she can't leave Yunnan anymore.

Walking into the neat and clean backyard that has been cleaned up, I saw Caifeng and Caidie cleaning up flowers and plants in the yard, and sorting and washing curtains, carpets and other things.

As if she was not idle, taking advantage of the warm sunshine in the yard, the weather was not too cold, she sat on a circle chair in the courtyard, concentrating on sewing the baby's clothes, and did not notice that Li Yi had returned.

Li Yi coughed slightly, his affectionate gaze poured on his lazy delicate body, full of infinite longing and pity. As if he slowly raised his head, Qiushui showed a look of surprise in his pupils, and he was just about to stand up straight.

Li Yi hurriedly rushed forward to support her, and said warmly: "It's like, I rarely take care of you these days, and let you be busy with a big belly alone, and I am really ashamed to be a husband." When these things settle down, I must accompany you well, so that we can enjoy the warm days. ”

As if he didn't shy away from taboos, he snuggled up to me in his arms, with a sweet smile on his face, and said softly: "My good husband, don't coax me with these beautiful words, just look at the current thriving weather in Yunnan, it is impossible for you to be idle." ”

"What's more, what you do is a big thing for the country and the people, how can you be tied up by your family. I just want you to have peace and joy in your heart, just be careful not to work too hard and exhaust your body, and we can rest assured. ”

Li Yi laughed and said, "Mine is like that! What if the child hasn't been born yet? When will they become a mother. Hehe! I don't know if I should call him Dian'er or Ning'er? I'm getting a little impatient right now. ”

It was like a sneer: "Look at your monkey anxious appearance, this is a person who is about to become a father, and he still doesn't know how important he is." At least a little more than a month! What are you anxious about! ”

"However, the concubine said it in front, whether it is Dian Er or Ning Er, you are not allowed to dislike him, I like both sons and daughters, as long as they are healthy and happy, do you say yes!"

Li Yi nodded hurriedly and said, "Hmm! Madame's lesson is that as long as they are healthy and happy, I like sons and daughters, and to be honest, I still very much desire to have a good daughter. ”

Just like this said: "When you come to Linjiabao this time, you should always bring Xu Yang and Shui Yi back for the New Year, they are still young and have suffered so much, now that the New Year is over, it is time for them to relax, don't you say?" ”

Li Yi shook his head slightly and said: "It's like, it's wrong for you to think like this, children of this age, like Xu Yang and Shui Yi, when their personalities and tempers are about to be finalized, if they are not properly restrained and cultivated, they are afraid that they will take a detour if they are not careful." ”

"And they have a good life in Linjiabao, I also accompanied them to eat the New Year's dinner in advance two days ago, which is already very good, and the other orphans have no relatives, do they have to take Ningzhou to come to Ningzhou for the New Year? For the sake of their future development, we must treat them equally at all times, and it is better to let them stay there and endure the training. ”

He nodded unwillingly, and said helplessly: "Since you said so, I won't say more, there are some benefits for boys to suffer some hardships, but I am a little worried when I think about it." ”

Speaking of this, it was as if he had suddenly woken up from a dream, and said anxiously: "Look at my memory, I almost forgot such an important thing." ”

"Our second uncle has been here for a few days, and now he is still living in the post house, and he has been waiting for you not to come, saying that he will go back today, you still have to go over and have a look, we can't lose our courtesy."

Li Yi's expression froze, what? Second uncle? Depend on! Who is the second uncle? It is true that this relative himself has not heard of it.

Thinking of this, Li Yi hurriedly asked, "Which second uncle?" When did he come? ”

He glanced at Li Yi as if resentful, and said reproachfully: "I see that you are busy and dizzy, you can't figure out our Liu family's uncle, don't you want to recognize your own mother-in-law?" ”

Hearing this, Li Yi couldn't help but suddenly realize, 'Oh' turned out to be the champion Li Yi's maternal uncle, Li Pian once mentioned in his family letter, the eldest uncle Liu Mingshan, about fifty-five or sixteen years old, is the elder brother of Li Yi's mother Liu, inherited the ancestral shade, mainly engaged in farming, and opened countless grain stores in various states and counties.

And this second uncle's name is Liu Mingjun, who is the younger brother of Li Yi's mother, only thirty-six or seventeen years old, and has been excellent in business since he was a child.

Li Yi was thinking about asking him to help him expand the business in the capital, but he hadn't been in touch yet, but since he came in person this time, he had to explain this and ask him to take care of it in many ways.

Li Yi deliberately patted his head, pretending to be suddenly enlightened, and said with a smile: "Hehe! How can we forget, but I really didn't expect him to come all the way to Yunnan, he doesn't know if he's gone, I'd better hurry over and have a look! ”
