"Oops!"

After hearing the sound outside the window, Li Hongyu was suddenly shocked in his heart, and sat up from the bed without opening his eyes and brushing it, startling Rou'er, who was engrossed in massaging her lower abdomen.

There is only one person who can be called "Miss" in the courtyard where Li Hongyu lives, and that is Li Hongyu's wife Zhao, and there is only one person who calls Zhao like this, and that is her dowry maid Zizhu.

"Sister Rou'er, I'm fine now, don't tell my mother about my stomachache, lest she worry at that time." Li Hongyu stabilized his mind and jumped out of bed, hurriedly wearing an open shirt while instructing Rou'er seriously.

Perhaps it was because of the fusion of the young man's memories that Li Hongyu had an inexplicable awe of the Zhao family in his heart, for fear that the Zhao family would know that he took advantage of Rou'er.

Rou'er never expected that Li Hongyu, who was still sick just now, suddenly became vigorous, not at all like he had any emergency, and after being stunned for a while, he suddenly understood, his cheeks turned red after brushing, and he bit his lip and nodded.

"Sister Rou'er, help me." Li Hongyu is used to wearing suits and sportswear, so he is not used to the robes on his body, and he is a thief, so he can't fasten his clothes in a hurry, so he has no choice but to ask Rou'er for help.

Hearing this, Rou'er, whose cheeks were crimson, hurriedly stepped forward and skillfully sorted out Li Hongyu's clothes, all these years she has been serving the young man's diet and daily life, including dressing and wide clothes, no wonder Li Hongyu's movements at this time seemed so clumsy, the young man had never worn his own clothes before.

When two middle-aged women in their thirties walked into the door one after the other, Rou'er had already dressed Li Hongyu and was arranging her belt, and when she saw the two coming in, she hurriedly bowed down and stood aside, her cheeks were a little crimson, and she lowered her head and didn't dare to look at people.

The middle-aged woman in the white dress in the lead is dignified, graceful and elegant, it can be seen that she was also a beauty when she was young, her brows frowned slightly and she looked worried, she was Li Hongyu's mother Zhao, who was born in a scholarly family in Xiangyang Mansion.

Zhao is not surprised that Rou'er is in Li Hongyu's room, after all, Rou'er is Li Hongyu's personal maid, and she sleeps in the outer room of the bedroom on weekdays, so that it is convenient to take care of Li Hongyu.

However, when Zhao's eyes fell on the messy futon on the bed, his eyes couldn't help flashing a look of surprise, and he couldn't help but look at Rou'er, who had a nervous look on her face and ruddy cheeks.

"Mother, I was sleepy just now so I fell asleep, and I only got up now."

Li Hongyu realized that Zhao seemed to have misunderstood what happened between him and Rou'er just now, so he yawned and pretended to be lazy to explain to Zhao, lest Zhao think that he had pulled Rou'er to bed.

"Yu'er, the doctor said that your body is no longer in serious trouble, since this is the case, you will go to the school tomorrow, but you have missed a lot of homework these days."

Zhao smiled slightly when he heard this, and then looked at Li Hongyu with a loving face, and didn't take this matter to heart, Rou'er was already serving Li Hongyu's personal maid, so even if Li Hongyu had a personal relationship with her, it was not a big deal, and it was something she couldn't ask for.

Moreover, Zhao didn't think that the introverted Li Hongyu had the courage to open the door and pester Rou'er.

"The child knows." Hearing that he was going to let himself go to the academy, Li Hongyu couldn't help but feel helpless in his heart, and he bowed to the Zhao family and honestly agreed.

As a "person who has come over", in his opinion, reading those books in the school is a complete waste of time, but there is no way to escape this matter, so he can only obediently follow Zhao's wishes.

Zhao saw that Li Hongyu was a little embarrassed because of what happened just now, so he returned to his residence after a few words of greeting, which made Li Hongyu secretly relieved, for fear that Zhao would see that he was different from before he got sick.

"Sister Rou'er, you go and inquire about what happened today, my mother seems to have something on her mind." Looking at the back of the Zhao family, Li Hongyu pondered for a while and then smiled and ordered Rou'er.

With Li Hongyu's experience, he can naturally find that the Zhao family, who is smiling and smiling, is not in a good mood, thinking of Zizhu's words in the courtyard, it is not difficult to realize that something big has happened in the family, as the third sister-in-law, he must not sit idly by, after all, this is closely related to his interests.

In Baihe Town, the only person Li Hongyu can trust is Rou'er, Rou'er is his personal maid, and she will definitely look at him, so it is the most suitable to inquire about the news.

"Hmm!" Rou'er smiled and walked out of the room quickly, her heart pounding and her cheeks crimson.

Li Hongyu's intimate behavior just now surprised her, and at the same time felt inexplicably happy, as a maid, she naturally hoped to be favored by Li Hongyu.

Li Hongyu noticed the shyness on Rou'er's face, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but show a smile: This little girl is both beautiful and smart, the key is to be very loyal, and after two years, she will definitely be accepted and given to the Li family's third room.

"Young master, the uncle just gathered all the clan elders and took away the grain business of our three rooms, and let our three rooms run the fabric business!"

Rou'er really didn't disappoint Li Hongyu, and soon found out what happened today, and rushed back panting, and told Li Yuntian, who was sitting bored at the table and waiting, that the uncle in her mouth was naturally Li Hongyu's uncle and the patriarch of the Li family, Li Renhe.

"What?"

The news brought by Rou'er couldn't help but make Li Hongyu furious, and he slapped the table and stood up from the chair, this is a naked robbery, do you really think that Sanfang is easy to bully? Then he sneered and said, "It's been less than two years since the old man left, and they can't help but beat the idea of our three rooms, which is really hateful!" Since they want to play, then Master Ben will play with them! ”

Rou'er looked at Li Hongyu with a gloomy face with a shocked face, her eyes were full of stunned looks, in her impression, Li Hongyu was introverted and gentle, and he had never been so angry.

Especially Li Hongyu's sharp eyes, she couldn't help but have a cold war, and felt that Li Hongyu in front of her seemed to be a different person, which made her feel both familiar and unfamiliar.

Li Hongyu's uncle, that is, Li Renhe, the patriarch of the Li family, took out a bunch of accounts and summoned the elders of the Li family to switch the cloth business under his name with the grain business under Li Hongyu's name on the grounds that the grain business was seriously losing money, so as to ensure Li Hongyu's interests in the name of beauty.

Although Li Hongyu's fourth uncle, Li Renbo, expressed strong opposition to this, with the support of Li Hongyu's second uncle, Li Renhu, the Li family's clan elders finally passed the decision.

Faced with this result, the Zhao family could only accept it reluctantly, according to the last words of the old man Li when he died, the property under Li Hongyu's name before he became an adult was taken care of by the elders of the family, so Li Renhe had the right to make adjustments when the grain business was not going well.

Moreover, the Zhao family, as a female streamer, was not qualified to intervene in the Li family's meeting at all, so how could they stop Li Renhe from taking away the grain business.

Besides, since the death of Li Hongyu's father Li Renhai, the Li family's grain business has been in the hands of Li Renhe, and all the accounts on the grain are controlled by Li Renhe's people, and the Zhao family has no power to fight back even if he has the heart to resist.

It's also quite embarrassing to say, originally Mr. Li wanted the elders of the family to take care of Li Hongyu and Zhao's orphans and widows, but unexpectedly gave Li Renhe an excuse to take the opportunity to intervene.

It is worth mentioning that among the many industries of the Li family, there are two most profitable businesses, one is salt and the other is grain.

As for cloth, the annual profit is less than one-tenth of that of grain, so it is not surprising that Li Renhe's idea of starting a grain business is driven by huge profits.

"These bastards, I really think that Young Master Ben is a soft persimmon and pinch it if you want to, if Young Master Ben doesn't give them a little bit of power, look at it, you still think Young Master Ben is a sick cat!"

Under Rou'er's stunned gaze, Li Hongyu paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, muttering there hatefully, looking angry.

Li Hongyu had to be angry, the grain business was the main source of income for the Li family's three houses, although he still had fields and shops under his name, but the money earned from those industries could not be compared with the grain business.

What is especially important is that since Li Renhe has started the grain business, he may have to calculate him elsewhere in the future, so he must find a way to keep the property under his name, not only for a happy life in the future, but also for Sanfang to fight for a breath of air.

"Sister Rou'er, can you do me a favor and find someone to pass a message to my eldest brother, so that he can put down the matter in his hand and get acquainted with the fabric business in Xiangyang as soon as possible."

After a while, Li Hongyu stopped and looked up at Rou'er who was standing aside, and said with a serious expression.

"Okay." Rou'er nodded solemnly when she heard this, although she didn't know Li Hongyu's intentions, but she realized that Li Hongyu would never obediently let others slaughter her, there must be something hidden in this.

The eldest brother in Li Hongyu's mouth refers to his half-brother Li Hongqing, Li Hongqing's mother Yang is the concubine of Li Hongyu's father, and has two sons and one daughter, the eldest son Li Hongqing, the second son Li Hongxiang, and the daughter Li Yuewen.

Li Hongqing is nineteen years old, Li Hongxiang is seventeen, and Li Yuewen is fifteen, all of whom are older than Li Hongyu.

Because they are not sons-in-law, although Li Hongqing and Li Hongxiang are Li Hongyu's elder brothers, they cannot be called "young masters".

The Yang family originally lived in Baihe Town, but after the death of Old Lady Li two years ago, Li Renhe drove them to Xiangyang City to guard the property under Li Yuntian's name.

Li Hongqing, who had originally trained in the head office of the Li family's business in the town, was naturally driven away, which made Li Hongyu and the Zhao family lonely and helpless in Baihe Town.

If there are people in the world who can be trusted by Li Hongyu in addition to Rou'er, then it is not Li Hongqing and Li Hongxiang, the two brothers, not only have a blood relationship, but also the fate of the two is closely related to the rise and fall of the third room.

With the grain business forcibly taken away by Li Renhe, Li Hongyu realized that the days of comfort seemed to have come to an end, and in order to keep the industry under his name, he had to sound the horn of counterattack, otherwise he would definitely become nothing, and it would be too late to cry.
