Chapter 738: Returning Home
Xiangyang Prefecture, Jiangkou County, Baihe Town.
"Folks, the scholar is back, the scholar is back......" In the early morning, the tranquility of Baihe Town was broken by a shout of surprise from the street.
"The scholar has returned to his hometown?"
Soon, Baihe Town became lively, and the people in the town rushed to the Li family's house, and there was only one person who could be called a scholar in Baihe Town, and that was Li Hongyu.
Although Qin Yue is also a scholar, she is not from Baihe Town, so the people of Baihe Town call her "Qin Scholar", unlike Li Hongyu, who even has a surname.
Since leaving Nanyang City, Li Hongyu and his entourage have been traveling day and night, and finally arrived in Beihe Town this morning, which caused a sensation in the town and alarmed the people of the town.
Li Hongyu is now an out-and-out celebrity in Baihe Town and even Xiangyang Mansion, not only born as a champion but also promoted to a young master in just a few years, and his promotion has broken the Ming Dynasty.
Of course, Li Hongyu came over step by step with his real skills, not to mention anything else, the battle outside the gate not long ago alone was heartwarming and enthusiastic, and he was the idol of Daming teenagers and girls.
Because Li Hongyu got married this year, all the relatives of the Li family outside returned to their hometowns, and no one wanted to miss Li Hongyu's big day.
With the arrival of Li Hongyu, the day of his wedding was officially put on the agenda, and the clan elders set it on August 15, the day of the full moon.
Normally, the date of marriage is set early, but when Li Hongyu will get married can only be determined when he comes back, this is because Li Hongyu is busy with official business and no one knows when he will come back, so the date of marriage is not easy to determine.
When Li Hongyu knelt down to salute his mother Zhao, Zhao couldn't help but cry, young people of Li Hongyu's age were all happy under his father's knees, but Li Hongyu had to fight for the Ming Dynasty in the south and the north, and she was born and died, which made her worried.
As a mother, Zhao naturally hopes that Li Hongyu can live in peace, but Li Hongyu is now a member of the imperial court, and she can only pray for Li Hongyu silently.
Zhao is now a dignified Mrs. of the Ming Dynasty, and she is also the youngest of the ladies of the Ming Dynasty, and she can be infinitely glorious, even if the governor of Huguang, the political envoy and other high-ranking officials have to salute before seeing her,
What made the Zhao family happy was that Li Hongyu did not come back alone this time, and also brought her two daughters-in-law, and the identities of these two daughters-in-law are not simple, one is the county lord, and the other is a consolation envoy, which is very rare in the entire Ming Dynasty.
After learning the news of Li Hongyu's return, all the officials of Xiangyang Prefecture, large and small, came to visit Baihe Town, and even if they couldn't see Li Hongyu, they couldn't help but come, which was a matter of attitude.
When Li Hongyu came back this time, the first thing he did was naturally to worship his ancestors, and thanks to the blessing of his ancestors, he was able to smooth sailing and make great progress in his career.
That night, Li Hongyu was talking while massaging her shoulders in Zhao's room, since Li Hongyu went to Wuchang to take the township test, the mother and son have not seen each other for several years, and they really have a lot to say.
"Well, if only your father had lived to this point, I would be glad to see you so promising."
While talking and laughing, Zhao thought of Li Hongyu's father Li Renhai, and couldn't help sighing, her expression was gloomy, she and Li Renhai were deeply in love, and naturally missed Li Renhai very much at this time.
"Mother, the child has already worshiped his ancestors, and his father must know that the child is fighting for the family."
Li Hongyu smiled slightly when he heard this, and then asked, "Mother, you have been widowed for the child for so many years, and now that the child has grown up, have you ever thought about finding a companion?" ”
"Looking for a partner?"
Zhao didn't understand what it meant for a while when he heard this, but then he reacted, Li Hongyu asked her to remarry, his face couldn't help but blush, he smiled and stretched out his finger and poked Li Hongyu's forehead and said, "You kid, why are you not big or small, how can your mother be a member of the Li family!" ”
"Mother, a man can have three wives and four concubines, and he can continue the string, why should a woman be widowed for life, and give a chastity archway when she dies, this is not fair."
Li Hongyu had long known that the Zhao family would not agree, and the ancient woman's concept of chastity was extremely important, so he said angrily.
"How can you, a scholar, have the heart to meddle with such idle things, you have been hiding from Yue'er for so long, mother, I think you should think about how to explain it to Xin'er." Zhao immediately laughed when he heard this, although Li Hongyu is now in a high position, he still has a childish spirit in front of her.
The "Xin'er" in Zhao's mouth is naturally Zhao Xin, and Li Hongyu's bride this time is naturally Zhao Xin, but he didn't reveal it to Zhao Xin at all in advance, so how to explain it to Zhao Xin has become the top priority facing Li Hongyu.
"Mother, you don't know, my son is going to surprise her, and before she can hurt her son, where will she complain about her son." Li Hongyu smiled slightly when he heard this, and replied with a smile, he wanted to give Zhao Xin a warm and romantic memory.
"Xin'er has endured hardships for you all these years, you have to treat her well, and don't bully her in the future, otherwise your mother won't be able to spare you!"
Seeing Li Hongyu's confident look, Zhao breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and then said in a deep voice, since she learned about Zhao Xin, she had infinite love for Zhao Xin in her heart, and there are too few women in the world who can do this.
"Mother rest assured, my son is not the kind of person who has a negative heart, and he will definitely love Xin'er for a lifetime."
Li Hongyu nodded with a smile when he heard this, he had a special affection for Zhao Xin, he was both a lover and a close friend and brother, so it was too late to love her, how could he bully her.
"That's good." Zhao nodded when he heard this, very satisfied with Li Hongyu's answer, and then remembered something, and asked with a smile, "When did you accept Yue'er, Yue'er has been with you for so long, you always have to give her an explanation." ”
"Mother, this time the child is going to stay at home for a while longer, and the matter of Yue'er was done a year ago."
Li Hongyu smiled slightly when he heard this, he was also thinking about this matter, Qin Yue, who had long known the truth of Zhao Xin's identity, had been able to follow him for so many years regardless of his reputation, he would definitely give Qin Yue what he deserved, so that he would become his woman openly.
"Mother, there is one thing that the child has not told you, the child has made a few confidants over the years, and they are going to come to the house tomorrow to meet you, do you like it or not."
Then, Li Hongyu's face showed an embarrassed look, and he said to Zhao with a smile, the confidante in his mouth naturally refers to Yang Li'er, Youlan and Yamashita Sakura, and he naturally wants to admit this peach blossom debt.
"Confidante?"
Zhao was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then understood the meaning of Li Hongyu's words, so he said with a smile, "Since you are your confidante, then my mother naturally likes it, tell my mother how you met?" ”
As a mother, how can the Zhao family think that there are many daughters-in-law, and the more wives Li Hongyu has, the more he can spread the branches and leaves for the Li family.
Li Hongyu was a little embarrassed when he heard this, and after laughing a few times, he roughly told him about the acquaintance with Yang Li'er and others, and Zhao was worried when he heard it, but he never expected that Yang Li'er and others would also live and die with Li Hongyu.
"They are all good girls, and they are even more affectionate to you, so you don't have to bear them in the future." After Li Hongyu finished speaking, Zhao instructed earnestly, she could feel that Yang Li'er and the others had deep feelings for Li Hongyu.
"Hmm!" Li Hongyu nodded again and again, he is not the kind of person who likes the new and hates the old, so he will naturally treat Yang Lian'er and them well.
"Yu'er, do you really want Sakurako's son to take the surname of Wa?" Zhao hesitated for a moment when he heard this, but finally asked.
Because Yamashita Sakurako is an only daughter, he agreed with Li Hongyu that in the future, a son would inherit the family business with Yamashita Sakurako's surname, and Li Hongyu could not refuse this reasonable request, so he agreed.
In the Zhao family's view, the heirs of Yamashita Sakurako are the descendants of the Li family, how can they become widows, and let her go to see the ancestors of the Li family in the future.
"Mother, he just changed his surname, after all, he is your grandson, the bloodline of our Li family, there is no doubt about it."
Li Hongyu knew that the Zhao family was a little reluctant in his heart, so he smiled and enlightened, "Mother, now that North Korea is about to be included in our Ming Dynasty, maybe in the future, the Japanese State will also become our Ming Dynasty's political envoy, and there will be no distinction between Ming and Japanese people." ”
"My mother doesn't understand this officialdom, but my mother wants to tell you that you have to train him well, and you must not let him learn badly from those widows, otherwise we will be sorry for our ancestors."
Hearing this, Zhao looked at Li Hongyu and solemnly warned Li Hongyu that she didn't want her grandson to become a wicked widow one day.
For the impression of the Japanese people, the people of the Ming Dynasty are still stuck in the Japanese robberies who rob their homes and houses along the coast, so the Zhao family will have such worries.
"Mother, don't worry, he will never do anything that disgraces his ancestors." Li Hongyu nodded with a serious expression, he naturally didn't want such a thing to happen.
In fact, after settling North Korea, Li Hongyu's next target is the Wa State, as the saying goes, how can others snore on the side of the couch, and the Wa State is really a huge hidden danger.
"Mother, the child has something to discuss with his mother when he comes back this time."
After making a promise to the Zhao family, Li Hongyu Yufeng turned to the Zhao family and said, "Mother, the child wants you to move to Shanghai, and the child can honor you in Shanghai in the future." ”
"My mother lives very well here, and my mother understands your heart." Zhao immediately laughed when he heard this, and said to Li Hongyu, how could she be willing to leave here.
Li Hongyu squirmed at the corner of his mouth when he heard this, and wanted to persuade him again, but finally swallowed back the words that came to his mouth, Zhao was used to life in his hometown, and it was indeed a little unrealistic to let her leave now, and there was no suitable excuse.
Anyway, Daming still has some time before the troubled times, so let Zhao stay comfortably in Baihe Town before that, and then he will pick up Zhao when the situation is urgent.
At this moment, Zhao would never have thought that Li Hongyu wanted her to go to Shanghai for her safety, once the troubled times came, the world would be in chaos, and Shanghai City would be the safest place at that time.
The next day, Zhao got up early, and after freshening up, she waited for the arrival of Yang Li'er and the others, and she couldn't wait to see what her future three daughters-in-law looked like.
It didn't take long for Li Hongyu to lead Yang Li'er, Youlan, and Yamashita Sakura to meet the Zhao family.
Yang Li'er and Li Hongyu arrived in Xiangyang Mansion on the same day, originally they were going to visit the Zhao family in Li Mansion, but they didn't expect Li Hongyu to come back from the capital in advance, so they contacted Li Hongyu and asked him to introduce him first, which was more formal.
In order to see the Zhao family today, Yang Li'er and Youlan deliberately dressed up, dignified and elegant, with outstanding temperament, which made Zhao's eyes light up, but they didn't expect the two of them to be so beautiful.
Due to her young age, Sakurako Yamashita wore a men's dress because she was worried about gossip, which was commensurate with Yang Li'er and Youlan's sister and brother, and she looked extremely pure and delicate.
The Zhao family liked Yang Li'er and the three of them very much, holding their hands and asking for warmth, Qin Yue and Naren Tuoya and the others would also be very friendly to the three of them.
Especially Naren Toya and Yang Li'er, they hugged happily after meeting, and the two had not seen each other in Yangzhou for two or three years.
Since she is the future daughter-in-law of the Li family, the Zhao family naturally wants to leave Yang Li'er and the three of them to stay at home, and they have already ordered their subordinates to clean up the guest room.
Zhao used to think that the place at home was quite spacious, but who would have thought that Li Hongyu would kill Peach Blossom, and brought back so many daughters-in-law for her in just a few years, which made Zhao feel that the home became a little crowded in an instant.
Therefore, the Zhao family began to look for a place to build a new house in Baihe Town, and when Li Hongyu returned to his hometown, he could live with a large family.
In Zhao's view, Li Hongyu will definitely return to Baihe Town to retire after becoming a minister, so she must prepare early, at least so that Li Hongyu's wife and children have a place to live.
After contacting Qin Yue, Yang Li'er and others, the Zhao family was surprised to find that they all knew about Zhao Xin, and had no complaints about Li Hongyu marrying Zhao Xin as his wife, thinking that this was the name that Zhao Xin, who sacrificed a lot for Li Hongyu.
This made Zhao Xin couldn't help but have mixed feelings in her heart, and secretly sighed Li Hongyu's good luck, she could see that Qin Yue, Yang Li'er and others had deep feelings for Li Hongyu, otherwise they would not be committed to Li Hongyu's concubine with their conditions.
With the arrival of Yang Li'er and the others, now the people of the Li family are looking forward to the arrival of the future hostess Zhao Xin.
Before Li Hongyu returned to the capital from Liaoxi, he had already sent a letter to Zhao Xin, asking him to return to his hometown to attend his wedding.
Extrapolating from the time, Zhao Xin should have arrived shortly after Li Hongyu left the capital, anyway, the Emperor of the Apocalypse had already approved Zhao Xin's return to his hometown, so Zhao Xin would definitely be able to come before August 15, which is why Li Hongyu agreed to this date.
If Zhao Xin can't arrive in time for some reason, then Li Hongyu also has a way, it's a big deal that he sneaks out in the name of urgent official business and reschedules the wedding, no matter what, he has to give Zhao Xin a perfect wedding.
