"Wu Niang, tell your father, what else did your grandfather tell you?" Li Xunzhuo came back from a lap of running, but found nothing, and was upset.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he went home, Ling ran to him with a smile and told him Shaohua's idea. At first glance, he was also frightened, and then listening to Ling's detailed words, Li Xunzhuo couldn't help but pat his thighs and applaud, and immediately asked people to call Shaohua over for questioning.

Shaohua was originally a little weak-hearted, these words were in northern Sichuan many years ago, and she saw that the entire northern Sichuan was boiling on the fifteenth day of every two months, and she was curious to join in the fun. The northern part of Sichuan is vast and sparsely populated, but there are very few fertile fields that can be cultivated, and most of the soldiers who followed General Dingxi were from the Central Plains, even if they were accustomed to the local food, but many other things still needed to be sent from the Central Plains from time to time. The imperial court doesn't care what the soldiers eat, but General Dingxi has to take care of it, it's just that it's extremely difficult to take a trip to the goods, not to mention the loss of silver, and it is inevitable that they will be attacked by bandits and bandits halfway.

Traders in the Central Plains rarely go to the north of Sichuan, and it is not cost-effective to have less goods, and it is too dangerous to have more goods. And after Liangcheng, the climate and diet are very different from those in the Central Plains, and many people can't survive and return home in Liangcheng. Some businessmen who know the goods come back to Liangcheng to sell the goods back to northern Sichuan, but in the end there are few porridge and more monks, and the price will increase several times. Small traders will not come, and those who have a family will not, in the Jiangnan area, they can make a lot of money in any trip, so why spend a lot of capital to go to northern Sichuan.

Gradually, northern Sichuan became a place where merchants from the Central Plains acquiesced and did not want to mention it, but some Hu merchants from the Western Regions brought a lot of things over.

"My grandfather said that Liangcheng is the second line of defense in the Central Plains, and if the north of Sichuan is not protected, it will be difficult for Liangcheng to defend alone. Therefore, Liangcheng has always been the link connecting northern Sichuan and the Central Plains, and the merchants of the Central Plains also like to sell goods to Liangcheng and then set off back. Although there will be people in northern Sichuan who will come to pick up the goods, in order to get stuck in the price, they generally don't bring too many goods back. Therefore, the general people who sold goods in the past did not dare to bring too much, for fear that they would hoard more people and would not be willing to sell, and they could not afford to spend a long time. Shaohua said word by word, seeing Li Xunzhuo's shrewd eyes like a businessman, he felt a little emotion in his heart, worthy of the Li family in Luyang, and the nature in his bones could not be changed.

"That's right, my father-in-law did mention this matter to me back then, but the mountains and rivers are far away, and this road is unpredictable, and it is said that there are many people in Liangcheng, and it is difficult to speak." Li Xunzhuo couldn't help but sigh with emotion: the old man's vision is long-term.

Shaohua pursed his lips and said: "No, it's clear that those businessmen don't dare to go themselves, and they are afraid that this profit will make others earn, so they deliberately slander." ”

"Huh?" Li Xunzhuo squinted at her muttering.

Shaohua hesitated for a moment, and said: "My grandfather told me a story, saying that once upon a time, a person was deceived when he went out to do business, and he was afraid of being made fun of when he came back, so he said that there were gangsters robbed in front of him and he couldn't go out." Unfortunately, the second one went out and was also deceived, so he came back and said that there was a tiger in front of him. The third man was supposed to go out, but when he thought that there were thieves and tigers in the road ahead, he immediately did not dare to act rashly. Later, the third person went out and made a lot of money, but when he came back, he still said the same thing as the previous two people, Daddy, do you know why? ”

Shaohua has not changed her voice yet, her serious face, coupled with her soft and glutinous voice, looks very cute. Li Xunzhuo felt very coke, so he deliberately asked, "Why is this?" ”

Shaohua looked at Li Xunzhuo's eyes seriously, and said seriously: "Because the third person found out that there was a big bazaar in front of him, and it was of good quality and low price, if he debunked the statements of the two people in front of him, not only would he attract resentment, but it was likely that everyone would come out with him in the future, so that he would not be able to earn so much."

Li Xunzhuo's smile stopped abruptly, looking at Shaohua's unsmiling face, it didn't seem like it was just to please him, and he couldn't help but joke.

"Northern Sichuan is so close to Liangcheng, if it is really as the outsiders say, Liangcheng is very popular, aren't they afraid of General Dingxi, who is even frightened by the bandits?" Shaohua's eyes lit up.

"What if General Dingxi intends to cover up?" Li Xunzhuo looked at her expression and asked.

"If the general was that kind of person, my grandfather wouldn't have come to the door in person to propose his eldest brother back then." Shaohua was not afraid to meet Li Xunzhuo's inquiry.

For Li Xunzhuo, who regarded Li Gelao's words as a holy decree, it was obvious that if Li Gelao did not trust the character of General Dingxi, he would never let Li Sijin go to northern Sichuan to propose marriage. It's just that seeing Shaohua's affirmation of General Dingxi made Li Xunzhuo a little crying and laughing.

"Wu Niang is very confident in General Dingxi." Li Xunzhuo smiled.

"It was my grandfather who said that." Shaohua immediately wilted and lowered his head weakly.

Li Xunzhuo touched her head, sighed heavily, looked at Ling and said: "Whether this can be done or not, I have to go back to the old man to say goodbye to the old man this year, I must personally come to the door to thank the old man, and raise Wu Niang to be so well-behaved and sensible for us." Li Xunzhuo looked at Shaohua with infinite warmth, and loved this daughter more and more from the bottom of his heart.

Shaohua trembled in his heart, if he went back and was discovered by Old Man Ling, she had been pulling cowhide under his banner, then everything would be a goof.

So, nervously thinking about how to make Li Xunzhuo dispel his thoughts, at least stay longer. Let her make up for more things about the Ling family in Pu'an, don't let people think that she has only been away from Pu'an for half a year, and she has forgotten everything about the Ling family.

The couple didn't care about their daughter's nervous face at all, and secretly flirted for a while, Ling's face was flushed by her husband's affectionate eyes, and she snorted at him, "Daddy wrote and said, let's not go back yet, there is an old man in the clan who has just passed away, and the clan invited him to preside, and now the family is not good at entertaining people." "Although there is no need to keep filial piety, anyone who participates in the white affairs must at least have a hundred days of thanksgiving before they can walk around with others.

"In that case, then wait." Li Xunzhuo looked a little regretful.

"Since Wu Niang's idea is good, why don't we give it a try?" Although the Ling family didn't listen to the conversation between the father and daughter very carefully, they could see from Li Xunzhuo's expression that this would be a good business, and immediately excitedly proposed.

"How can you just go, even if you go south, it's not so easy." Li Xunzhuo always felt that things were not as easy as he imagined, and when he saw Shaohua's pensive face, he jokingly asked, "What can Wu Niang do?" He became more and more convinced that this daughter was his cash cow.

The people on the side would only see Shaohua as soon as he returned to Li's house, and the family was immediately busy, and in order to take Shaohua back, Su almost didn't turn his face with him. said that the Ling family still has a son and a daughter, she only has one daughter in Jinhua, if she is restrained by Shaohua's eight characters, there are three long and two short, she will not live. Su's tears were pinched very well, and the same meaning came out of her mouth, which made Li Xunzhuo helpless and emotional. If the Ling family said so, there would only be one result, that is, the couple would have to quarrel again.

Now that he thinks about it, Li Xunzhuo is very glad that he brought Shaohua back. If this road can be followed, maybe he will not have to stay in the capital, and he will not have to be teased to stay under the wings of his father and brother.

Shaohua raised his eyebrows and said to Li Xunzhuo: "I just said it, why did my father forget it." The eldest brother is the son-in-law of General Dingxi, if he comes forward to mention it, even if we ship the goods to Liangcheng, we are not afraid of the merchants of northern Sichuan making things difficult. What's more, if this road goes through, there is hope for her to go to northern Sichuan again.

"That's right! This matter was provoked by the big house, let the eldest daughter-in-law talk about it, maybe they can send some people to pick it up in person. Ling slapped his thigh and said excitedly. Get! I'm going to tell them. ”

"Stop!" Li Xunzhuo grabbed the Ling family, who got up to leave, and glared at her angrily, "If this matter is going to come forward, it is also our man who comes forward, you are a woman who takes care of so much, if it's okay, teach Wu Niang more things, she will be fourteen after the New Year." If Sanniang goes out, she will be the one who will follow. You have to pay attention to some good people's Langjun, don't delay. ”

When the Ling family heard this, they immediately smiled and said, if this can be put on the line, not to mention Wanhua's dowry, even Shaohua's dowry, and Si Mo's daughter-in-law in the future will be more than enough.

Shaohua's expression froze, and she didn't know how Li Xunzhuo jumped to find her in-laws, but at least the thoughts in her heart were finally getting more and more scored.

And when Xin Zixuan heard Li Sijin talk about this, she just drank a bowl of bitter and sour medicinal juice, and the bitter and sour taste made her frown uncomfortably. If she wasn't used to drinking, she couldn't help but wonder if Liu was deliberately angry with her, so he boiled such a bad Chinese medicine for her.

It's just, can this thing really make her pregnant?

Li Sijin took off his court clothes, and Xin Zixuan stepped forward to pick him up and helped him shake and hang up. Smelling the smell of Chinese medicine on her body, I couldn't help asking, "Is there any discomfort in your body?" ”

Xin Zixuan was stunned for a moment, her pretty face turned red, and she shook her head, "A-Niang asked the kitchen man to cook it, saying that it is good for the body." ”

Li Sijin said indifferently: "It's a medicine that is poisonous, no matter how good it is, it can't be eaten as a meal." ”

Xin Zixuan was a little moved, blushing and snorting: "It's a medicine that can give birth to children." ”

Li Sijin made up his mind, looked back at Xin Zixuan and turned his face awkwardly, and exhaled lightly, "I'll talk to A-Niang when I go back, this matter is not something I just think, if I have a child, it will be more than worth the loss to take medicine for my body." ”

"Don't, A-Niang is afraid that she doesn't want to see us recently." Xin Zixuan hurriedly stopped her, "Although this matter is wrong with A-Niang, but she is an elder in the end, this time she has lost face, and her psychology must be uncomfortable." "The Liu family can't say anything good about this eldest daughter-in-law, but it must not be compared with Yan Sui, just like the Liu family's love for Li Sijin's brothers, it is inevitable that there will still be a priority.

"A mistake is a mistake, and the elders are not allowed to be wrong?" Strictly speaking, Li Sijin's temperament is more Xiao Li Ge is older, and he admits death. "The second uncle told me about this, although I didn't want to, but after all, it was our house that was wrong first, and the second uncle was also for this family. Look, do you want me to write back, or do you want to talk to your father-in-law first? ”

Although her mother-in-law's love for herself is not as good as that of her future concubine, for the respect of her husband, and the second room is quite polite to her, Xin Zixuan decided to help her.

"You don't have to worry about this, I'll just talk to my father, in fact, my father has long wanted to come here, maybe this will be a good opportunity."
