Chapter 56: A Blessing in Disguise

Wanhua and Shaohua didn't expect that Ling's anger would be so strong, no matter how much they pleased, they refused to give up, thinking that the two of them had made such a big fuss in Taihe Garden, and when Li Ge Lao came back and knew about it, he was afraid that things would not be so easy to calm down. The Ling family seemed to have foreseen this outcome, so he was also prepared that Li Xunzhuo would quarrel with her when he came back, and he didn't want to wronged himself, so he put a stinky face on the table.

It's just that the three sisters and brothers are suffering, and they are worried that Li Xunzhuo will come back, and they have to appease the Ling family, and they can't please the left and right. The Ling clan didn't even look at them, so they sent the two girls back to Biwuxuan, and Si Mo was also ordered to study in the house.

Just when the sisters were about to block Li Xunzhuo halfway, they took the first step for the Ling family and explained the matter to Li Xunzhuo. It's just that he didn't expect Li Xunzhuo to run to Huansiyuan, which made the sisters pounce, and it was not good to take the initiative to run to the door to find a scolding, so they had to go back to Biwuxuan and wait. specially asked Youhan to go to Xiyuan to inquire about the news, and as soon as there was any movement, the sisters immediately rushed over to save the scene.

It's just that to their surprise, until dawn, Xiyuan was still as calm as water, and even Taihe Garden didn't make a sound.

"A-Niang, what happened last night?" As soon as the two entered the door, they couldn't wait to ask.

Ling lazily held up his freshly combed bun and glanced at them, "Who made you so unruly, as soon as you entered the door, you didn't even ask for peace." ”

Only then did the two girls find out that Li Xunzhuo was also present, so they said Wanfu and retreated to the outside room to wait. Although Ling's fiery temper came and went quickly, no matter how fast he was, it was impossible to wake up and forget all about yesterday. And judging from the expressions of the couple, it doesn't look like they are arguing at the head of the bed and at the end of the bed, but more like nothing happened last night.

The two sisters glanced at each other, each with a stomach full of confusion, watching the Ling family walk out first, Wanhua couldn't hold back the curiosity in her heart: "Auntie, ...... last night"

"Have you eaten? If not, I'll eat with your aunt, I'll go out first. Li Xunzhuo turned back and nodded to Ling.

Ling asked with concern, "Won't you go out after you eat?" ”

"No, I'll go out and find a way." Li Xunzhuo echoed refusal, but the person had already strode away.

It is rare to see such a concerned and warm conversation between the husband and wife, or when they both think it is after the war. After Ling watched her husband leave, she turned around, met two pairs of glittering gossip eyes, held her chest, and glared at them angrily. Stretching out his hand to push them aside, he walked back to the table to eat, "If you don't have anything to eat, sit down, and go to school when you have eaten." ”

"A-Niang, don't sell it." Wanhua said mournfully.

"Mother Cui, did you come to Xuyuan last night?" Shaohua set his eyes on Cui's mother.

Mother Cui, who was serving Ling's cloth vegetables, was stunned for a moment, and looked at Shaohua incredulously. "Huh? Five ladies, how do you know. After speaking, he immediately closed his mouth nervously, glanced at Ling's family, and saw that she was only concerned about lowering her head to eat, so she let go and said, "I really let you say it, the eldest young master and the eldest young lady came to the door in person last night to ask for guilt to the lady." ”

"Please?" Shaohua was stunned.

Cui's mother scooped a bowl of shredded chicken and conpoy wolfberry porridge for each of them, and the freshness of the shredded chicken and the sweetness of the conpoy simmered a pot of white porridge very delicious.

"Last night, the master came back very late, I thought he came back by himself, but I didn't expect to be followed by the eldest young master and the eldest young lady." Cui's mother's words made Ling's expression a little fluttery, and Shaohua could almost imagine how Ling's expression was last night, "As soon as they entered the door, without saying a word, they immediately compensated Mrs., which frightened the master." Then he said that this time it was the eldest lady who was wrong, and they deliberately came to compensate for it, and said that they had gone to the old lady to make it clear. ”

Seeing that the two girls were stunned, their jaws were about to fall to the ground, and then Ling Shi spoke slowly: "I'm not unreasonable and intolerable, if it weren't for your Bohm going too far yesterday, I wouldn't have fallen out with her." ”

Cui's mother added food to the two of them while helping Ling finish the words. "The eldest young master said, all these years it has been the lady and the master who have worked hard to support the family, the young lady has been in Xiyuan for a few days, watched, learned, and knows that the lady is not easy, and he will never dare to make a decision with the lady to manage the power of the family. It's just that because the two of them were elders yesterday, and they were angry, it was not good to save the face of the eldest lady in person, so they came to the door to make amends. ”

Yesterday, the Ling family lost Xin Zixuan's face, and after leaving with her two daughters, she actually didn't feel better, and she wanted to persuade her mother-in-law to go back, but she was beaten again. On one side is the mother-in-law, on the other side is the aunt, obviously it has nothing to do with her, but both sides can't please her, so I have no choice but to wait for my husband to come back and tell him out. Li Sijin is still a sensible person after all, and after listening to his wife's words, he also felt that his mother was wrong, so he immediately got up and went to Liu to ask for clarification.

Unexpectedly, Li Liangxun knew the matter one step ahead of them, and he was so angry that he scolded Liu. When Liu saw it, his ugliness was hit by his son and daughter-in-law, and he was so ashamed that he wanted to hit his head to death.

But Li Sijin is no better than his younger brother Si Yan, and he is unwavering in Liu's crying and trouble, and asks Liu to take the initiative to explain it to Li Gelao, so as not to have a gap in the family.

"I really raised you white-eyed wolf, but I am for the sake of you brothers, and now you want me to lose this face!" Liu looks dignified and generous on weekdays, but once he cries, it is unreasonable. But looking at the same faces of her husband and son, she couldn't cry anymore, so she had to turn to her daughter-in-law, "Daughter-in-law, you were also there to watch, do you think it's my fault!" ”

Seeing that everyone's eyes were on her, Xin Zixuan hesitated for a moment, and said helplessly: "Auntie, the second aunt has really not been easy these years, I have seen her do things, and I can't learn that method now." "I don't know if the Ling family deliberately let her see it, or if Si Yan is really too loser, looking at those entry and exit entries, I really can't imagine how much the Li family has to earn to fill in such a big deal as Xuyuan.

"Okay, you have no conscience, let you go to learn to settle accounts for a few days, and you will stand on her side." Liu was so angry that he wanted to pounce and let Li Sijin block it.

Li Liangxun rarely saw his wife lose his temper like this, his face turned blue with anger, and under the anger, he slapped the table and roared: "Don't make trouble, you don't know how much you have hidden for Shiro, my monthly court salary is far less than that kid's expenses, if it weren't for the second room, where do you think your brocade clothes and jade food today came from!" Although Daddy is not at home, do you think his old man doesn't know in his heart, if he doesn't give you decency, it is possible for you to divorce! ”

The first time Liu heard Li Liangxun say such a heavy word, his face turned pale with fright, and he sat on the chair. Xin Zixuan hurriedly poured water for her, smoothed her chest, and it took a long time to hear her say to Ai Ai: "But, but, I promised my second brother to add 50,000 taels of makeup to Yan Niang." ”

"You put makeup on Yan Niang?!" Li Liangxun was so angry that his whole body trembled, "I don't care, I'll go to Taiheyuan and let Daddy take you off." I don't want this daughter-in-law anymore, with such a precious life, our Li family can't afford to marry it! ”

The Liu family didn't dare to come out, if it weren't for Li Sijin and them to stop them, they were afraid that Li Liangxun would really run to Taiheyuan. Although he also knew that his wife was protecting his mother's family, but first Mrs. Li was the gatekeeper, and now the Ling family was in power, no matter how much the Liu family posted, it couldn't post much. didn't expect that the Liu family would actually agree to add makeup to Yan Sui, and give so much, even if the Li family has a gold mountain, sooner or later it will be emptied by the Liu family.

The friendship between the two families of Liu and Li is not bad, after all, the in-laws for so many years have indeed supported each other. But Liu's behavior is clearly forcing the relationship between the two families to the edge.

In the end, the trouble caused by the Liu family had to be solved by Li Sijin and his wife, and they first went to Taihe Garden to ask Li Ge Lao for his guilt. Li Ge Lao said that he would not interfere in this matter and let the two rooms solve it by themselves. Li Sijin and his wife hurriedly rushed to Xiyuan again, invited Li Xunzhuo and his wife to a seat, and told the matter as it was. As soon as Ling heard that Liu was scolded by her husband, half of the resentment in her heart immediately dispersed, and she was coaxed by Xin Zixuan to feel comfortable. It's just that when she heard that Liu actually boasted that he wanted to take 50,000 taels to add makeup to Yan Sui, she suddenly sneered.

"What a big breath!" When Wanhua heard this, she was immediately furious.

"A-Niang, did you agree?" Shaohua was also taken aback, this number is not something that can be said casually, they are just frugal, so they have to pay how much they have to pay in. The most important thing is that if this is added, who will make up for it, Yan Sui is the daughter-in-law of the Liu family, and the Ling family and his wife can't be allowed to give money.

"How can it be, this is not the eldest granddaughter-in-law, the eldest lady has never been so extravagant when she entered the door." Cui's mother also snorted with great disdain.

I really don't know if Liu's thinking is too simple, or the Liu family's heart is too ruthless, and they dare to instigate Liu's boasting about this Haikou. The problem is that the Liu family has already promised that if it is not good, it is not whether it can do the business of the in-laws, but I am afraid that there will be a conflict between the two families. Thinking about it again, the Liu and Li families had already buried the mustard, and this time it was not handled well, but they were afraid that Luyang would turn the sky upside down.

"Even if I wanted to say yes, my family wouldn't be able to raise so much money for a while." Ling's temper is hot, but when he calms down, he is much more rational than Liu. "It's impossible to give, but you can consider borrowing it."

Li Sijin took the initiative to propose an IOU, and after Si Yan's family affairs were resolved, this account should be returned to where it should be.

So far, it doesn't mean that it can be solved by rushing to Luyang to say a few words, but fortunately, the Liu family didn't let them go to the door now.

"Borrow? Where to borrow so much. "Wanhua felt a little aggrieved in her heart, if she lent it to Si Yan, then what would she use as a dowry when she got married!" Isn't the big brother promoted, just let them think for themselves. ”

"Hanlin Yuan is a Qingshui Yamen, what can I do?" Unless Li Sijin was asked to stop everyone from selling calligraphy and paintings on the street, Shaohua couldn't help but let his brain make up for the situation to make him laugh.

"What are you laughing at, do you have a way?" Wanhua glared at her.

"No, what can I do." Shaohua couldn't hold back his laughter, and continued to make up for Li Sijin's serious face and shouted on the street, feeling happy in his heart.

Ling sighed, "So your father is not in a hurry to go out, but if the goods from Jiangnan can come back at the end of the year, it doesn't mean that they can't raise money." It's just that it was originally a dowry for Sanniang. Ling looked at Wanhua with a reluctant expression, and hugged her into his arms in distress, "I have wronged Sanniang, fortunately, the clan will not be able to return to Beijing until the end of next year, and everything is still in time." ”

Even if Wanhua was reluctant, he couldn't say anything, but he complained about Yan Sui in his heart.

"A-Niang, do we only go to the south?" Shaohua knew that in addition to a few Zhuangzi producing grain and collecting land rent, there were also many shops under the name of several stewards. Many of them are cloth and seafood from the south, and Li Xunzhuo also has two under his own name. Many times, it is because of the goods in the south that they have made a lot of money, otherwise it is really difficult to support the squandering of Liu's mother and son.

"I heard that there are often people in the northern Sichuan area, but because it is too far away from the Central Plains, I am afraid that there are many things on the road, and the goods are easy to lose, so I buy them at a high price from foreign merchants. I don't know how much more silver I need a year, but it's still not enough, so I can only rely on hoarding, but some things are not resistant to hoarding, and they can easily spoil. But that's all good, after all, the world is peaceful now, and if there is a fire at the border, it will be troublesome. Shaohua babbled and read, not paying attention to the surprised expressions of the mother and son behind him. In fact, if we want to be able to connect with the businessmen in northern Sichuan, let's transport the things halfway to let them pick them up, which will save trouble and make money. Especially those soldiers, many of whom are from the Central Plains, have been gone for three or five years, or even longer, and they are afraid that they will not be able to eat this food for half their lives. It is said that it will take them several years to send a letter to their home, and if they can catch up with that side, they may be able to help them with a family member or something. Daddy said, the people's hearts are determined, and the world is determined......"

"Who told you this?!" Ling suddenly said sharply.

"Grandfather said that." Shaohua said too smoothly for a while, and leaked out all the previous things.

Seeing that the Ling clan didn't speak for a long time, Shaohua didn't dare to speak out in a weak heart, thinking that he had been found out something, and he was nervous and didn't know what to do. Suddenly, I heard Ling sigh deeply, "Daddy is still worried about me." Ling looked at Shaohua with a dull expression and said with a smile: "Your grandfather told me about this many years ago, but I didn't expect him to still remember it. ”

Shaohua patted his chest and made a false alarm, so there is a drama?
