Chapter 189: Returning to the Door (II)

Li Junxian took Mulan to Mulan's house and also met his other father-in-law and mother-in-law. However, these two fathers-in-law and mothers-in-law seem to be ordinary people, so they are very nervous when they see Li Junxian, a "member of the court". However, they were also very happy that their daughter could marry a member of the imperial court. Their consciousness has not changed at all, that is, they are actually eunuchs. Only the five-rank officials of the Tang Dynasty can be called the official eunuchs, because the five-rank officials can have the qualifications of the door shade, and Mulan happens to be the fifth-grade official. However, since Mulan is married to Li Junxian, Mulan's so-called door shadow qualification can only be given to Li Junxian's son, so Li Junxian will not suffer.

"The son-in-law has seen his father-in-law and mother-in-law!" Li Junxian hurriedly saluted and said hello.

"Oh, I can't do it! Lord Li is a member of the imperial court, how dare we let Lord Li salute us? Mulan's father was still very careful and didn't dare to let Li Junxian salute them.

"Father-in-law, it doesn't matter. If you marry your daughter to me, then you are my father-in-law. The son-in-law salutes his father-in-law and mother-in-law, what's wrong with this? So, you can rest assured! Li Junxian said.

Mulan's parents were relieved, they were very worried that this big official's son-in-law would not get along with them, so they were a little afraid. The ancients had much more reverence for the government than in later generations, so even if they were relatives of officials, they did not dare to be presumptuous in front of their relatives.

"Father-in-law, mother-in-law, how are you living here? Is there anything missing? Li Junxian asked.

"No, we ......" Mulan's mother just wanted to say something. But he was immediately stopped by Mulan's father.

Mulan's father seemed to want to say something, but he didn't say it for a while. And Li Junxian, as a son-in-law, of course has to take the initiative to ask. Help your father-in-law and mother-in-law solve their problems!

"Father-in-law, there is still something missing at home, just tell me!" Li Junxian said.

The father-in-law held back for a moment, and finally said: "Our family lacks nothing, just hoping to give our son a future." ”

Li Junxian heard Mulan's father's idea and immediately knew what was going on. Because although Mulan is already a general, she is married to Li Junxian after all. That is, the people of the Li family, strictly speaking, it has nothing to do with Mulan's Wei family. And the woman is not the heir to the ancient tradition, and Mulan's parents also have a son. Mulan's parents want to get an official position for their son, which can be regarded as good for their Wei family. Since there is a big official like Li Junxian as his son-in-law, what can he not use?

Li Junxian was also a little embarrassed when he heard it, because although Li Junxian could talk to those officials directly. Let Mulan's younger brother become an official. But the effect is too bad. Because even the children of those high-ranking officials are difficult to become officials directly. The children of those high-ranking officials have to be sent to the school, that is, the Guozijian, Taixue, and the Four Sects to study for a few years before they can become officials. What's more, although Mulan's younger brother is his brother-in-law, why should he be an official? Because every official has very few chances to pass through the door shade, Li Junxian only has one qualification for the door shade. Of course, Li Junxian wants to give it to his son, why give it to his brother-in-law!

"Father-in-law. Has my brother-in-law ever read? Li Junxian asked.

The so-called brother-in-law is his wife's younger brother and his brother-in-law. Brother-in-law was later commonly known among the people, and brother-in-law was a more formal name in ancient times.

"My family is poor and I haven't studied!" Mulan's father said.

"Then I can't help it, it's impossible for the imperial court to make a person who hasn't read a book an official. However, I can find him a gentleman and start with enlightenment. After enlightenment and literacy, we can send it to Taixue, and then after a few years of study, we can pass the imperial examination to enter the official career. However, whether he can pass the imperial examination or not, it depends on him! Li Junxian said.

"That's fine!" Father-in-law said.

Now, Li Junxian has also calmed down Mulan's parents, and then Li Junxian left again, going to return to Zheng Liwan's father, Zheng Renji. And last time, he and Zheng Renji performed a scene of robbing relatives, which can be regarded as an explanation to those Shandong scholars, so this time Li Junxian took Zheng Liwan back to the door, and Zheng Renji's attitude was not very good.

"Son-in-law to meet my father-in-law!" Li Junxian greeted.

"You're here? Since the little girl wants to marry you, I have no objection, because it is better to marry you than to enter the palace as a concubine. Jung In-ki said.

Li Junxian was speechless, the reason why Zheng Renji agreed to marry Zheng Liwan was because Zheng Liwan originally wanted to enter the palace as a concubine, but later changed her mind and wanted to marry herself. And Zheng Renji obviously opposes his daughter's entry into the palace, so since he has no choice, he can only choose Li Junxian as his son-in-law. And that Lu Shuang was too disappointing to him, so Zheng Renji had no choice but to agree to Li Junxian marrying his daughter. But he was afraid that his reputation in the scholar clan would be damaged, so he cooperated with Li Junxian to perform a farce of robbing relatives.

"Dad, I believe that I am happy to marry Jun Xian!" Zheng Liwan also began to help Li Junxian, after all, Li Junxian is his own choice!

"Okay, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, and I won't talk about you more. Li Junxian, I just want to tell you that my daughter has been a little ambitious since she was a child, and she doesn't belong to a man. If it sounds good, it is ambition, and if it doesn't sound good, it is ambition. You have to understand her, don't have any disgusting thoughts! Jung In-ki said.

Knowing a daughter is like a father, Zheng Liwan is his daughter after all, Zheng Renji can obviously see that his daughter is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Originally, she wanted to marry the emperor, and maybe she would have the opportunity to marry the world in the future. But later, I don't know why, I actually chose Li Junxian, which also made Zheng Renji a little strange. However, Zheng Renji still chose to agree, because as long as his daughter doesn't want to enter the palace, everything is negotiable. Zheng Renji was also a minister of the Sui Dynasty, so of course he knew that the inside of the palace was not as happy as he imagined outside! Some parents dream of sending their daughters to the court, but some parents avoid the court, and Jung In-gi belongs to the latter type.

"Father-in-law, husband and wife should understand and tolerate each other, I don't care that my wife has her own ideals and career. The son-in-law's wife, Dugu Yiren, and another flat wife, Wei Mulan, don't they all have their own jobs? The son-in-law doesn't want them to stay at home all day, so the son-in-law has no objection to them having their own business. Li Junxian said.

"Hey, maybe that's why the little girl likes you!" Zheng Renji said with a sigh.

And Zheng Liwan also said to Li Junxian: "Junxian, I can manage the industry for my two sisters." Sister Dugu has to manage the money village for the imperial court, and Sister Mulan also has a lot of military affairs to deal with, so I can help them manage the industry! ”

Li Junxian was relieved when he heard Zheng Liwan say this. Because Zheng Liwan has also found her own thing, she is not afraid of being idle, but she can only compete for favor. And Li Junxian has always thought that one of the reasons why ancient women competed for favor was because they had nothing to do at home, so I am afraid that a normal person would be crazy. In this case, it is natural that you can only compete for favor to survive the loneliness. Therefore, for the sake of family harmony, Li Junxian does not object to his wife and concubine having their own jobs. (To be continued......)
