Chapter 106: Does the eldest aunt still plan to remarry?
"My brother has gone to the academy."
Mu Xi frowned, a little displeased with Li's change of face, especially when she found out that this person was calculating her again.
"Sanni."
Li's tears came as soon as he said it, wiped his tears and said, "Sanni, your uncle and cousin are gone."
There is no one in charge in this family, I don't want to ask Brother Li'er to go back to the main business, so I can help with the funeral. ”
This is a common thing in the countryside, and many of those who have no children are helped by their nephews and nieces.
Mu Xi's eyebrows twisted, she didn't know much about the customs here, so she could only say, "I'll tell my brother." ”
As for what her brother wants to do, she won't care, but ......, she hasn't spared her hands to find out the truth about the original owner's father and mother, and it seems that this time she must deal with it.
"Or I'll wait here for your brother to come back."
Li's eyes didn't leave the decoration of the wooden mansion, and he wondered in his heart that Erni must have misestimated.
These Sanni's yards may not be rented, or they may have bought them.
"Whatever you want."
Mu Xi didn't care, took his things back to the yard, and explained to Qiongzhi and them by the way, optimistic about the Li family.
She went back to the house to draw talismans and occasionally pay attention to things outside.
At noon, Mu Li came back to eat, and met the Li family who was here with Mu Xi's special hospitality, and Qing Songniang made vegetarian dishes today.
Li Shi looked at the vegetarian dishes that were served, and his face was pulled down.
"Brother Li'er, you live in such a big yard, why do you serve me some dishes like this?"
"You have just been widowed now, and you should be filial piety."
Mu Xi's serious opening made Li half angry, and her eyes widened.
"You... You ......"
"Xiaoxi is not wrong, didn't the uncle just pass away?"
Mu Li had a cold face, he didn't expect that the Li family would be so cheeky, and he would still want to eat meat at this time?
Dani hurriedly said apologetically, "Brother Li, Sanni, I'm sorry, my mother is too sad because of my father's death, and my mind is not very clear." ”
Mu Xi ignored it, eating the food silently, as for the Li family, she likes to eat or not.
Seeing that he couldn't take advantage, Li Shi lowered his face and said his purpose, "Brother Li, you still need to trouble you about your uncle and cousin's future."
After all, you are now the only male in the Mu family, and I can't find anyone else in this matter. ”
"What the eldest aunt said makes sense, but I have a question to ask."
Mu Li's eyes were a little indifferent, "May I ask if the eldest aunt still plans to remarry?" ”
The Dafeng Dynasty is quite forgiving to women, and if they are widowed, they can also choose to remarry.
Li subconsciously spoke, "Of course you want to remarry, is it possible that you still expect me to guard for your uncle for a lifetime?" ”
"In this case, the things that belong to our Mu family, please stay, and I will handle the funeral for my uncle and them at that time."
Mu Li studied in the academy during this time, and he has grown a lot better than before, and a few impartial words will completely push the Li family's affairs away.
Li stood up suddenly, pointed at the tip of Mu Li's nose and scolded: "Brother Li, you have lost your conscience, it's your uncle, his bones are not cold."
You actually calculated his things, do you still have a conscience? ”
"Before I left that day, I talked to Grandpa Lizheng about it, and he said that the clan would help deal with the aftermath.
But you need to pay for the expenses yourself, if you are willing to guard the uncle, his property will naturally be yours, and if you want to remarry, these things will be confiscated. ”
Mu Li didn't plan to ask for these things, after all, he didn't have a good relationship with Mu Yuan, and he would rather leave a kindness in front of his clansmen.
Li Shi was angry, she crossed her waist and scolded, "You guys are too much, you ......"
"Mother!"
Dani hurriedly stopped what Li was about to say, and said to Mu Li in a low voice:
"Brother Li, Sister Da Ni, please finish my father's funeral first, okay?"
Mu Li glanced at Mu Xi, and seeing that she didn't speak, she sighed and said:
"Okay, but as for the rest, what I discussed with Grandpa Li Zheng is what Fang just said, auntie, think about it yourself."
When the Li family got married, there was a broken quilt, and the house and land were all owned by the Mu family, so she naturally couldn't take them away.
Li's face was particularly ugly, and he was relieved to see that Mu Li had agreed to follow her back.
Who knew that Mu Li gave Mu Xi his purse before leaving, "Sanni, I may have to rest in the village in the past two days."
It's inconvenient to carry other things on your body, so you can keep them for me first. ”
Except for the peace buckle given by Mu Xi, he really left with Li with empty hands, and Li wanted to lose his temper, but he was persuaded by Dani in the end.
If Mu Yuan didn't even have someone to send him to the end, he would definitely be laughed at.
Mu Xi couldn't help but smile and put away Mu Li's purse, told Qing Song to take good care of Mu Li, and watched them leave Mu Mansion.
Qiong Zhi was a little indignant, "Girl, they treated you and Gongzi so much, and now Gongzi has to send him to the end, it is really too deceitful." ”
"Qiongzhi."
Mu Xi sighed, "Although I don't really want to do this, they are the descendants of my grandparents, and my grandparents have always been good to me and my brother when they are here."
Just for the sake of grandparents, since my brother is willing, then we will turn a blind eye. ”
And she believes that her brother can handle these things well, and later, she will prepare a big gift for the Mu family.
Mu Xi took Qiongzhi out to set up a stall, but she didn't come for a while, and the people in the market still missed her.
"Little master has been very busy lately, I haven't seen you for a long time."
Old man Wang joked with a smile, but Mu Xi didn't care, "It's really busy." ”
Saying that, she entered the old man's shop to see if there were any new good things, but before she could speak, the old man Wang said to her mysteriously:
"Come on in, I've gotten some good stuff lately, you can help me with my palms."
Old man Wang is not very proficient in mysticism, but he is more proficient in feng shui and calligraphy and painting.
He asked Qiong Zhi to look at the shop for him, took Mu Xi into the inner room of the shop, and mysteriously took out a small wooden box.
As soon as the small wooden box was taken out, Mu Xi couldn't help frowning, and the aura on the box was a little strange.
"Grandpa Wang, I'll come."
The things on it were not clean, Mu Xi did not move to brush away the resentment in Old Man Wang's hands, and took the small wooden box himself.
"But what's wrong?"
Old man Wang was not stupid, he quickly realized that something was wrong with Mu Xi, and hurriedly stayed away from the wooden box.
"It's not a big deal."
Mu Xi bent his lips, and with a slight movement of his fingertips, he opened the wooden box, only to see a picture scroll lying inside.
Old man Wang said proudly: "This is my new pair of danqing, which is said to have been handed down from the previous dynasty." ”
"You're going to collect?"
The corners of Mu Xi's mouth twitched, and the old man Wang was afraid that he couldn't control the things on it.
Old man Wang didn't understand what Mu Xi meant, so he smiled and said, "Yes, it seems good to go back and be an heirloom to my unfilial nephew." ”
