Chapter 36: The Son-in-law (16)
Judging from the brain structure of the Li family sisters who ignore men as soon as they see them, this matter is very likely.
Lin Ye should have made some promise to Li Yuhuan, but now that he is going to the capital, the promise cannot be fulfilled, so Li Yuhuan is naturally anxious.
Yu Su fully showed the posture that the head of the family should have, with a smiling face and tea, and the hospitality was very thoughtful.
Master Li's attitude eased a little.
Soon, Master Qi came back, and when he saw the Master of the Li family, he greeted him warmly, "Brother, you haven't come to our house for a long time." ”
Master Li's face turned cold, "I don't have an older brother like you, I think about letting your son-in-law calculate my daughter all day long." ”
Master Qi asked the little guy what was going on on the way here just now, but the little guy couldn't tell what was going on, only that Master Li seemed to be in a bad mood.
No matter how Master Ren Qi guessed, he couldn't guess that Master Li would say that it was such a thing.
"Brother, you have to make this clear. What happened? How can I call my son-in-law to count your daughter? ”
The Li family's matter is also ugly, and Yu Su asked his subordinates to retreat first, and there were only these four people left in the house.
Master Li looked at Lin Ye, "Is this matter up to you, or am I going to say it?" ”
The three of them looked at Lin Ye in unison, and a trace of confusion flashed on his face.
Master Qi knew that with the life of the master of the Li family, he would definitely not open his mouth and slander people casually. And in the past few years, he also knows what his daughter's attitude is towards this Lin Ye.
However, Master Qi did not show a trace of doubt and dissatisfaction, but asked gently, "Qi Ye, what happened?" It's just our own family here, you can make it clear, if there is a misunderstanding, it's good to solve it. ”
Of course, this kind of thing can't be admitted, Lin Ye said: "The juniors don't know what they have done, and they have made the master so angry." If it was really Qi who committed something unforgivable, Qi would be dealt with by the master. But no matter what happens, please also give the younger generation a clear word. ”
Lin Ye's words were neither soft nor hard, his words were humble, but his attitude was very hard, and he also showed that he didn't know.
Yu Su said in his heart that he is really good at acting.
Master Li laughed angrily, "Okay, you don't know, I'll make it clear to my brother." ”
The two families have been in Jiangnan for more than ten years, and Master Li also trusts Master Qi as a person, but he can't say anything about it, but he still saves some face for the Qi family between his words.
"My youngest daughter just met a while ago, and her mother was looking for a family affair for her, who knew that she came to tell me a few days ago that she had a crush on your son-in-law Qi Ye, and said that they had made a private decision for life."
As soon as Master Li said such a sentence, Master Qi knew the seriousness of the matter.
He is good friends with the Li family, so he naturally knows the Li family's plans.
The Li family, who has an intertwined relationship with the court, wants to go further, and must marry their daughter into the noble family, and the Qi family is just a businessman no matter how rich they are.
Shinong industry and commerce, although their Qi family has some reputation, and there is a golden sign of imperial merchants, but they are not as good as farmers and craftsmen.
It is impossible for the Li family to joke about their daughter's life.
Even if the Li family is short of money, as long as the two daughters of the Li family call him godfather, Master Qi is willing to pay for it.
Moreover, with the help of the Qi family over the years, the Li family has also had a lot of revenue from the shop and the grange.
So this incident can only show that the matter is already very serious.
When Lin Ye saw Master Qi's expression, he knew what he was thinking.
hated this ignorant woman in his heart, he had known that this was the case, he would never touch Li Yuhuan at all.
It's just the difficulty in front of me...... Lin Ye put on an expression of being wronged, and shouted that he was wronged.
"The younger generation has studied in the Li family for three years, and so far they only know from Xiuxiu that there are two young ladies in the Li family, and they don't even know their names.
Although we met a few times during this period from the Li family's garden, we got along with each other with affection and courtesy, and there was absolutely no place to cross the Lei Pond, which can be testified by the maids around the two young ladies of the Li family, and there are also scholars around me, and I also ask Master Li to learn from it. ”
Master Li saw that Lin Ye's expression was frank and open, not like a fake, and he also had some doubts in his heart.
But after thinking about it, his daughter is an innocent girl's family, and the foreign men who have been in contact with the most over the years are the few who have studied in the Li family, although Lin Ye's appearance and knowledge are not bad, but after all, he is married, and he is still a son-in-law, which is far worse than Meng Zhao.
If it weren't for Lin Ye's intention to seduce, how could the daughter of his Li family fall in love with such a person?
Yu Su didn't ignore the dissatisfaction and contempt that flashed in Master Li's eyes, and he didn't need to ask to know that it was aimed at Lin Ye.
She couldn't help but feel aggrieved in her heart.
It was the client who fell in love with Lin Ye, and now she is the only one who has a bad eye for complaining.
Lin Ye also saw Master Li's expression, and hated this old man to death in his heart.
Sure enough, dragons give birth to dragons and phoenixes, and sons born to mice will make holes, and this truth will not change anywhere.
A stupid woman like Li Yuhuan can only have such a snobbish father.
However, Lin Ye's thoughts were hidden even deeper, and his face was respectful at this time.
Master Li could only restrain his anger - after all, he didn't really come to tear his face today.
In fact, when Li Yuhuan said that he liked Lin Ye, Master Li didn't take it seriously.
only told her that her husband could only be the concubine of the noble family.
Unexpectedly, Li Yuhuan cried and made trouble, and he had to marry Lin Ye, and said that they had made a private decision for life.
Master Li was furious, and directly ordered someone to lock her in the room, planning to quickly find someone to marry her off, and the raw rice would be cooked and cooked.
I didn't expect this unfilial girl to dare to go on a hunger strike and commit suicide.
That night, a ribbon was hung on the beam of the house, and if it wasn't for the maid's timely discovery, it would have become a wisp of incense.
After being rescued, Li Yuhuan still put on an expression of death.
said that if she didn't marry Lin Ye, she would cut her hair and become a sister-in-law, otherwise when she arrived at her husband's house in the future, she said that if she had a heart, she could only be beaten to death.
Mrs. Li felt sorry for her daughter, so she immediately quarreled with Master Li, and forced him to come to Qi's house to marry her.
At first, Master Li refused to come, according to his ideas, it was better to be a sister-in-law than a concubine.
But I don't know why, this matter spread, although it is not a hot discussion in the whole city, but everyone in the Jiangnan area has heard about it. 、
Li Yuhuan's wish to marry into a noble family was completely frustrated, and no one would want such a daughter-in-law with a loss of virtue.
In addition to being a sister-in-law, Li Yuhuan is to marry Lin Ye, and there is no third way to choose.
Master Li was forced to be helpless, so he had to pull down this old face and come to the Qi family.
