Chapter 136: A Promise
Because the third brother was separated from her, Li Wu, who only dared to say two cool words in the past, actually dared to raise the bar with her in front of everyone. Miss Li couldn't help but stiffen her hand holding the fan.
In today's Jinling City, which one of the Miss Li families doesn't think of her first? The young lady from the Li family can't count them on both hands, why can she stand out? Is it because of looks? How much effort does she have to spend on makeup every day, Li Wu in the second room of the Li family, Li Liu and Li Qi in the third room, the pair of sisters, are not inferior to her in terms of appearance alone; Is it because of it? Li Si in the second room has a hairpin in one hand, and she is ashamed of herself.
So why did she stand out from the sisters?
When my grandfather was not sick, the bowl of water at home was quite flat, the Li family had several rooms, and the long house was not outstanding.
The second room has always been prosperous in terms of heirs, and there are also men of the Li family's generation first. At that time, she was still young, and when she argued with several girls of similar age in the family, she could always see the girls in the second room proudly offering their killer features.
"Don't bully us, or go back and tell my brother!"
Adults have competition among adults, and children also have competition between children.
At that time, she was envious, she had no brother, only a brother who was one year younger than her, this brother was always quiet, what she said, whether she lost her temper or made trouble, she always smiled gently, and didn't care.
This always makes her feel like she has nowhere to exert her strength.
When did it start to change?
It was her younger brother, who was one year younger than her, who began to start reading, it was her younger brother who was often taken to her grandfather to teach him personally, and it was when her father and mother began to talk about "our Saburo".
Her younger brother is very promising, and even a few elders in the other room are polite to him when they see him.
Gradually, her fluttering "go back and talk to my Saburo" can make the girls in the other room begin to accept her, even if she knows that they are not open-mouthed, and may make them so unwilling and have to flatter her, she is always happy in her heart.
See! What's the use of having more brothers and sisters? She has Saburo!
It's not that she doesn't want to have a few more younger brothers, so she has a sixth brother, but the appearance of the sixth brother made her understand one thing. She only has a younger brother like Saburo, and she can't lose it.
There are so many benefits of having Saburo. Miss Li began to be more famous than Li Suwen's name, and after that, she began to choose her husband's family, and the name cards she sent were one head higher than those of the other rooms. Even Pei, the first surname of Jinling, once revealed to his mother that he wanted to marry her, and the result was ...... It turned out that because of the broom star, he was gone.
Now the family who is talking to her is still much better than the other house, but how can she be willing to marry the Pei family? Her mother persuaded her to be unwilling, but she had to be willing.
She will be nineteen in another month, and she can't delay it any longer.
Miss Li's hand holding the fan is faintly visible: All this is to blame on that broom star!
It's not just her family, but even the Saburo she values the most is beginning to alienate herself because of her? Why? Why do such people still live in this world and harm others?
"Go to Mother!" Miss Li gritted her teeth and strode towards Mrs. Li's courtyard.
……
After sitting in Mrs. Li's courtyard for half an hour, Wen Zhu waited for his son-in-law to come back from his mother.
"What's going on at home today?" As soon as Li Zhao saw him, he asked, paused, and added, "I'm asking about the eldest sister." ”
Miss! Wen Zhu suddenly: "I heard that the eldest lady and the fifth lady in the second room had a quarrel. ”
"I see." Li Zhaocai was about to step into the courtyard and retracted his feet.
It turned out that it was the sisters' dispute that caused her to go to her mother to complain, which made her start to "worry" about his family affairs, lest he really have something to do with Miss Qiao.
"The eldest sister is not too young, and the family affairs have not yet been decided?" He looked at Wen Zhu, as if asking him and asking himself.
Wen Zhu was taken aback by what he saw at this glance, and said in his heart that this was not something that he could manage. But in the face of his son-in-law's gaze, he still replied stubbornly: "I heard that Mrs. has begun to look at each other." ”
"It's been a long time." Li Zhao said thoughtfully, and then slowly shook his head: "Father and mother are really used to her." ”
His father and mother valued him, but sometimes he didn't mean he was favored. Compared with him, who has been studying in the library all the year round and has been raised under his grandfather's knee since he was a child, he is naturally the eldest sister who stays at home and is more popular with his parents.
This preference is subconscious, and although he is not angry at this bit of parental partiality, it seems that this partiality is going to affect his affairs at the moment.
He doesn't like to waste his energy on these things. It's just that there seems to be no way at the moment, since my grandfather's illness, the Li family has been in a state of "no leader", and Master Li, who looks like a long house, can speak the most, but in fact, if there is any opposition in the other room, my father can't do anything.
This home can allow the voice of the side to remind itself, but the real decision, as long as one person is enough.
There are many people with mixed mouths, each with their own selfish intentions, and sooner or later something will happen.
Li Zhao was silent for a moment, and suddenly said: "Post all the posts of my Li family's recruitment of miracle doctors for my grandfather's illness." ”
Wen Zhu responded and was about to leave.
But I heard my son-in-law suddenly say: "Add one more." More than a thousand taels of gold, if he can heal his grandfather, he can mention one thing, as long as it is not against loyalty, I will do everything in my power for him. ”
The Li family's recruitment of a miracle doctor for the seriously ill old lady spread throughout Jiangnan Province in just a few days, and even Qiao Ran and his party who were far away in Yuhang saw this post.
Hongdou secretly tore up a post and brought it back and put it in front of Qiao Ran.
"Look, miss, this Li family really took a lot of thought about that old lady's illness, a thousand taels!" Hongdou said, adding another sentence, "It's gold!" ”
"It took a lot of thought." Qiao Ran pointed to the last sentence of the post, "You can also get a promise from Li Sangongzi." ”
"What is this?" Hongdou didn't care, "Is it an addition to a thousand taels of gold?" ”
"It's not an additive." Qiao Shu, who was sitting on the side drinking porridge, raised his head and couldn't help but say, "It depends on how you mention it, if you mention it right, maybe this promise can't be bought with ten thousand taels of gold." ”
Red Bean looked at him with a puzzled expression.
Qiao Ran looked at it with a smile and explained: "Because this promise comes from Li Sangongzi, gambling on his own future, if one day, he is a supreme minister, the weight of this promise will not be light." ”
Red Beans still seem to be a little dazed.
Tang Zhongyuan twitched the corners of his mouth, and couldn't help but turn his head: "For example, is Pei Xiangye's promise and your red bean's promise called one thing?" ”
Hearing this explanation, Hongdou lowered his face and glared at him fiercely, seemingly understanding.
This commitment carries a lot of weight.
There are many people who can understand this.
"It's really interesting to have a lot of fun out there," the girl smiled at the post on the table, "and sure enough, nothing in this world is precious." ”
"That's why Miss is more valuable." Shui Xing on the side said, his tone proud.
The girl was noncommittal, just looked at the post for a while, and then handed the post to Shui Xing: "Put it away, don't lose it." ”
