Chapter 3: Family Speculation
Xiang Jiuding was still wearing the clothes of the Li family's entourage, and the clothes were torn off from which entourage, which did not fit well, and he was very embarrassed by the fact that he had been searching for stains day and night.
The pampered ninth master of the Xiang family did not feel the slightest discomfort in his dress, and knelt down at Mrs. Li when he entered the door.
"It's all my fault, it's our inconsiderateness, I'm willing to make amends in front of the eldest lady." He said.
The recognition of mistakes was crisp and neat, which surprised everyone in the house.
When he just got the news that Li Minglou was missing, Xiang Jiuding did not insist that it was Xiang's fault, but was confused and said that he didn't know what was going on.
But now when I come to the elders, I simply admit my mistakes, and my attitude is good.
Although Old Madam Li still had a calm face, she was relieved when she wanted to reprimand.
"Xiang Jiuye, this thing is really scary." She said, "Xian'er's father just had an accident, and she has to have a good one again, and those of us who are elders will have no face to live." ”
Xiang Jiuding knelt on the ground and said yes, kowtowed, and said, "I have no face, when I see the old lady kowtow, and then say sorry to the eldest lady, I will go back to the uncle and the sixth uncle to confess." ”
"Ninth Master." Li Fengchang said, "It's not too late to wait until you ask what the reason is, even if you admit punishment, Old Lady Xiang and Master Xiang will understand." ”
Zuo said: "Xian'er is injured and frightened, and she can't see anyone for the time being. ”
This is to explain the reason for keeping him, Xiang Jiuding was ashamed and grateful, and kowtowed again: "I really deserve to die." ”
Although I don't know what's going on in a daze, fortunately the person is back, I have asked all the questions that should have been asked, and those who should have admitted their mistakes have also admitted their mistakes, and then we have to wait a little longer, what is going on can only be subject to what the parties say.
Now people who are frightened and tired can breathe a sigh of relief for a while.
"Xiang Jiuye is interesting." Zuo's served tea to Li Fengchang after taking a bath, "It can be seen that the Xiang family attaches great importance to this family business." ”
Li Fengchang took the tea and took a sip, his face stretched: "The Xiang family just has an empty shelf now, and they are good friends with our Li family, so they take advantage of it." ”
Zuo nodded, and frowned again: "However, is Xian'er unwilling to marry into the Xiang family?" ”
Li Fengchang categorically denied it: "This is the eldest brother's proposal before his death, and she also expressed her willingness." ”
Zuo said: "After all, it is so far away, she is young, and it is understandable that she is timid and remorseful." After speaking, he smiled again, "But if it is really because of this, it will be easy to do, although she is young, she is a sensible child, I will persuade her again." ”
If it's just Li Minglou's reason, it's really a trivial matter, Li Fengchang nodded with a soothing face.
"However, it cannot be ruled out that other people are secretly making trouble." He turned the teacup in his hand, "Why did Xian'er suddenly feel remorseful, who told her something." ”
The Xiang family really wants to get married, but the Xiang family is not the only one who is of Xiang Nan's age.
Moreover, Li Minglou's relatives are not only the Li family but also her maternal ancestor Lian family, and the Lian family definitely does not want Li Minglou to marry the Xiang family.
"I don't even have a family." Zuo said, "Since the death of the sister-in-law, the Lian family wanted to renew the second daughter to the eldest brother and was refused, the two families have been divided, and the exchanges have been broken over the years, where is it their turn to interfere in Xian'er's marriage." ”
Li Fengchang sneered: "Big brother is gone." ”
My father and mother are gone, and the elders above are also qualified to intervene.
Zuo shook his head and smiled: "It's the eldest brother who is gone, it's not that our Li family is gone." He took Li Fengchang's teacup and pushed him to rest, "Don't think about it yet, the person has come back safely, and I will make a theory after asking Xian'er, even if someone is a ghost, just find out." ”
The soldiers will block the water to cover the earth, and the matter will be solved, and the luck in the misfortune is that it happened on the way, and if it is to the Xiang family, it will be more troublesome.
Li Fengchang nodded, and before going to rest, he said again: "The eldest brother has passed away, and now it seems to be stable, but there is still a turbulent dark tide outside and at home, you have to pay more attention." ”
For example, Li Minglou's accident to Taiyuan Mansion.
This will never be an accident.
Zuo's Daosheng knew and urged Li Fengchang to rest.
The Li family's mansion was quiet for the time being, and the people who came and went were cautious, lest they disturb these people who were frightened and tired, but the children's place did not have so many scruples.
There is a separate courtyard on the west side of the mansion, and the pavilions, pavilions, small bridges, and flowing water are exquisite and delicate, and the sound of warblers and swallows lingers in it in the hot summer afternoon.
The girls by the stream rolled up their sleeves and carried the corners of their skirts to play, and on the other side of the small pavilion sat three girls fishing.
But their minds weren't on the fish in the water.
"The fourth uncle said that the eldest lady turned back halfway for a pair of birds." Li Mingran sat up straight and said with bright eyes.
She is Li Fengchang's youngest daughter, she is younger, and she always can't help but raise her hand when she speaks, as if she has the strength to make others notice her.
"It's not the fourth uncle who said it." Li Mingqi, who was leaning on the fence of the pavilion, was Li Fengyao's youngest daughter, and corrected and pointed out in a soft voice, "That's grandmother sarcastically mocking the fourth uncle and refuting how the eldest lady could run back for a pair of birds." ”
"But for the eldest lady, it's not impossible to run back for a pair of birds." Sitting cross-legged on the pavilion and staring at the fishing rod was Li Fengjing's eldest daughter Li Minghua, who was older than both of them, and spoke in an atmospheric manner, "She can move the house from Jiannan Road, what else is there to make a fuss about." ”
This is an interesting story of Li Minglou.
When Li Minglou was three years old, his mother Lian gave birth to Li Mingyu and died, Li Fengan decided to take care of the children himself, and after the expiration of the filial piety period, he took Li Minglou's sister and brother to Rendi, and did not send the two back until the year before last.
It was not only the two sisters and brothers who were sent back, but also the belongings that accompanied the thirty carts, and when these belongings were unloaded and piled up, it was a dismantled house, which shocked the entire Li family and became a rare thing that had never been seen in Jiangling Mansion.
How troublesome it is to dismantle a room is still a trivial matter, and the cost of transporting it is staggering, and there is only one reason for this, Li Minglou chose a seat.
Just because of the choice of seats, a room can be moved, so it seems normal for a pair of parrots to stay at home turn back halfway.
Li Mingran is still at the age of what he hears, and nodded when he heard this: "I think the eldest lady came back for a pair of birds." ”
Li Minghua didn't care about this: "If it's a trivial matter for a pair of birds, I'm afraid that the eldest lady doesn't want to marry the Xiang family." ”
"She doesn't want to marry?" Li Mingqi sat up straight, "Why doesn't she want to get married?" Xiang family, it's good. ”
In addition to being a little farther away, but getting married is leaving home, as long as the mother's family is powerful, what does it matter if you are far away.
Li Minghua turned his head, saw Li Mingqi's bright eyes, and smiled: "Okay?" It's good for us or other girls, but the eldest lady is different from us. ”
Isn't it the same? Li Mingqi doesn't think so now, because Li Minglou's father is dead, and Li Minglou is not the Li Minglou of the past.
