At noon, the city of Jian'an is very lively.

Cao Wei was strolling leisurely and was walking towards the Li Mansion.

It didn't take long for Guo Jia's voice to come from behind him: "Brother Wei, wait for me!" ”

Cao Wei turned around, and Guo Jia had already come to him.

"Why are you here, you shouldn't look at Li Yu here, lest he have any bad intentions!"

Guo Jia smiled: "Brother Wei, his father has been arrested, you just saw his cowardice, what other bad thoughts can you have?" ”

"That's not for sure." Cao Wei groaned.

Seeing this, Guo Jia patted Cao Wei on the shoulder: "Don't worry, Brother Wei, I'll let Huang Duyu read that kid to play chess with him, but Brother Wei, can you reveal what you want to do?" ”

"Through my observation during this time, I found that the women in Jian'an City are very obsessed with balm and powder, and we can't just patronize and get some salary, don't we have to earn some money on our own?"

"Balm? I thought Brother Wei wanted to do something, it turned out that you wanted to do the balm business! ”

Guo Jia's face was solemn, his family was originally doing some business, and he was naturally sensitive to this, so he persuaded: "Brother Wei, although there are many women in Jian'an, there are also many people in the city who do this kind of business, those young ladies basically think that one family will only go to one, if we do it, we will definitely lose money!" ”

"I don't think you understand."

Cao Wei smiled and shook his head: "Okay, let's go to the Li Mansion to talk about business first." ”

Before the tea was ready, the two came to the front of the Li Mansion.

Standing next to the stone lion in front of the door, what catches your eye is the vermilion lacquer door, and there is a sign hanging on the door, which is engraved with the word Li Fu.

"It's worthy of the Li family, it's really magnificent!" Guo Jia's envious voice came from his ears.

But Cao Wei waved his hand and said to him: "You wait for me here, if I don't come out within half an hour, you will go back to the country to call someone." ”

Guo Jia was puzzled, he also wanted to go in and see what it looked like, so he asked, "Brother Wei, is it necessary to be so careful?" ”

"The heart of defense is indispensable, then Li Renping himself is an old fox, since he can let his sister take charge of the wealth, I'm afraid it will not be easy to deal with!"

Seeing that Cao Wei was so serious, Guo Jia had no choice but to nod: "Brother Wei, you have to be careful......"

"Hmm."

Cao Wei bowed slightly, and then walked towards the gate, if it wasn't for Li Renping entering, he really wouldn't have come!

He never underestimated anyone, let alone the huge Li family?

But for the sake of future livelihoods, there are still some risks to be taken.

Lightly snapped the door knocker, and after a while, the door was opened, and it was the housekeeper of the Li Mansion who came out.

"Who are you?"

"In Xia Cao Wei, he is Li Gongzi's classmate, and he is here to visit Li Gongzi's aunt."

"Coming to find the second aunt?"

"Exactly."

"Gongzi Cao, wait a minute, wait for me to pass on it first."

As the steward of the Li Mansion, he naturally knows what happened last night.

He ran towards the mansion without stopping, and after a while he came to the account office in the mansion.

"Second aunt, there is a person named Cao Wei outside, who claims to be a classmate of Gongzi, and says that he is here to visit you!"

"Come to visit me?"

The glamorous woman frowned slightly, and put down the brush in her hand: "He came alone?" What about Yu'er? ”

"He's alone, Childe isn't here."

"That's strange......," the woman hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Well, take him to the Peony Courtyard to meet us." ”

"Yes."

After the butler had retreated, he came to the door again.

"Young Master Cao, please come in."

Cao Wei bowed slightly, and then followed the housekeeper to the mansion.

I have to say that Cao Wei has seen many family mansions, but when he walked into the Li Mansion, he felt what it meant to be truly magnificent.

The mansion is carved beams and painted buildings, through the verandah wings, all are small and chic, the trees and mountains and rocks everywhere in the courtyard are there, and the maids passing by can not be counted.

Under the introduction of the housekeeper, Cao Wei learned that Li Yu's aunt was called Li Ruolan, who had not yet married, and had been managing the accounts in the Li Mansion on weekdays.

Now that Li Renping has entered, Mrs. Li is sad, and Li Ruolan has naturally become the backbone of the Li family.

It can be seen that this woman is not an ordinary person.

Soon.

The two of them had already arrived in a separate courtyard.

The peonies in the courtyard are in pieces, with buds waiting to be released, and there are famous maidservants guarding the door outside the door in the courtyard.

Before Cao Wei stepped forward, a woman's voice came from the room: "Li'er, please come in and sit down." ”

When the words fell, the maid in front of the door made a gesture of invitation to Cao Wei: "Master Cao, please." ”

"Okay."

After Cao Wei agreed, he crossed the threshold.

At this moment, Li Ruolan walked out of the side room, with a silver shawl wrapped around her arms, and the whole person looked graceful and elegant, and her appearance was beautiful.

Cao Wei was a little curious.

Li Renping's old fox is already forty or fifty years old, how can this Li Ruolan only look a few years older than him.

At most, it's in your early twenties!

If it weren't for hearing the housekeeper shouting like this, Cao Wei even wondered if this was Li Yu's aunt.

But just talk about Li Ruolan's appearance.

It seems that it is not a beautiful thing to be this Li Yu's uncle!

"You're Cao Wei?"

Li Ruolan's opening interrupted Cao Wei's thoughts.

Cao Wei saluted Li Ruolan: "Xiaosheng is Cao Wei......"

"Well, since you're Yu'er's classmate, you can just call me aunt." After saying that, Li Ruolan pointed to the chair next to the coffee table: "Please take a seat." ”

"Thank you."

Cao Wei thanked him, and then sat down at the coffee table, where there was already brewed tea.

Seeing this, Li Ruolan also sat down, blinked her beautiful eyes, and asked, "You and I have never met, just now I heard the housekeeper say that you came here to visit me, I don't know what happened?" Could it be that Yu'er committed something in Guozijian? ”

"No, no, no."

Cao Wei hurriedly waved his hand: "Cao witnessed the matter of Rich Master Li, and now Brother Li is in a bad mood, saying that he doesn't want to go home in recent days, and that he asked me to come over for him to get some living expenses......

"Living expenses?"

Li Ruolan's eyes flickered, but they were fleeting.

Cao Wei immediately took out the letter written by Li Yu himself from his arms and put it on the coffee table: "You will know after reading it, this is written by Brother Li himself." ”

"Oh? Let me see. ”

Li Ruolan took the letter in her hand, swept her beautiful eyes, and then looked at Cao Wei with a smile: "Two thousand taels is not much." ”

Cao Wei suddenly felt that there was a play, but his face still showed respect, and he held the teacup in his hand: "Since this is the case, can my aunt ......?"

The voice did not fall.

I only heard a loud noise, and the door of the room closed in an instant for some reason, so frightened that the tea in Cao Wei's hand spilled a little.

Cao Wei frowned, and slowly looked at Li Ruolan beside him, only to see that Li Ruolan was looking at him with a smile.

"What's going on?"

Cao Wei chuckled in his heart, and there were thousands of thoughts in his mind.

Could it be that there is something wrong with the letter?

No way, no matter what kind of head or tail, he has checked it.

I don't see anything wrong at all!

But the current situation tells him that it's definitely a problem!

Judging from this move of closing the door in the air, Li Ruolan in front of him is very likely to be a martial artist!

Even if he is a new eighth- or nine-rank martial artist, he can't beat it!

It's credible, no problem, why would Li Ruolan do this?

Could it be that you have taken a fancy to yourself?

Want to cook raw rice and make yourself the uncle of the Li family?

If that's really the case, there doesn't seem to be anything to be afraid of!

With this in mind.

Cao Wei quickly regained his composure, took a sip of tea without hurry, and then gently placed the teacup on the table.

Li Ruolan was a little surprised, and her eyebrows frowned slightly: "What, you're not afraid of me?" ”

"I'm afraid, of course I'm afraid!"

Cao Wei replied as a matter of course, and then said: "I am a scholar, and I don't have the strength of a martial artist, if my aunt is really hungry for my body, how can I resist?" I just hope that my aunt knows that my parents who are affected by the body must not ruin my handsome face. ”

Li Ruolan's expression changed, and she said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense!" ”

Seeing that Li Ruolan was anxious, Cao Wei sighed again and said, "Auntie, if you don't have a crush on me, then why do you close the door in broad daylight, don't you want to do something that you can't see?" ”

"If you speak disrespectfully again, don't blame me for being merciful!" Li Ruolan looked serious, not like she was joking at all.

Seeing this, Cao Wei didn't continue, but asked, "Then you say, what do you want to do?" I'm a prisoner of the country, and it's not a wise move for you to take action against me! ”

"Huh."

Li Ruolan first chuckled, and then explained: "Don't you know that the money you put here is the Li family's life-saving money?" ”

"Life-saving money?"

"Not bad."

Li Ruolan's eyes were like torches: "Otherwise, what do you think I'm in charge of?" Li Yu has never dared to ask my aunt for money since he was a child, but as long as he speaks, something must be wrong. Where do you say Li Yu and the others are now? ”

"I see!"

Cao Wei instantly understood that this time had nothing to do with this letter!

As long as he comes, as long as he finds this Li Ruolan, it will prove that something happened to Li Yu!

"Got it now?" Li Ruolan squinted at Cao Wei: "I have also heard about yesterday's incident, although my brother's arrest has nothing to do with you, but I also know about the gambling contract, seeing that you look like a gentleman, how can you do such a dangerous thing?" ”

"What do you mean by taking advantage of someone's danger?"

Cao Wei took a sip, and then asked: "I'm just here to deliver a message, you want to do wrong to me behind closed doors now, if you want others to know, you old virgin ......"

"Shut up!"

Li Ruolan said angrily: "You kid is disrespectful, now in my Li Mansion the heavens should not be called the earth, even if I kill you, there are a hundred ways for outsiders not to know!" ”

"Oh? So confident? ”

Cao Wei didn't laugh angrily, and once again held the tea on the coffee table in his hand and rippled slightly: "I knew that your Li family was not a good thing!" I have already told my classmates and friends that if I don't go out within half an hour, I'm afraid it won't be long before the officers and soldiers will surround your Li Mansion! ”

"What a shrewd thief, I doubt that you are the eunuch who acts so despicably!" Li Ruolan crumpled the letter in her hand and said.

Cao Wei was angry when he heard the word eunuch, and quickly stood up and said angrily to Li Ruolan: "You mother-in-law is so rude, compared to the treachery of you people, I am just for self-preservation, you actually confuse me with those eunuchs!" ”

Li Ruolan snorted coldly: "Where is Li Yu now?" ”

"I'm playing chess in the Guozi Prison, Cao Mou came here just to make a deal with Brother Li, and Brother Li agreed, originally Li Yu also said to give me ten thousand taels, but now I only need two thousand taels!"

Cao Wei held up two fingers.

"What deal did he make with you?" Li Ruolan frowned.

"What kind of deal can you wait for him to come back and ask yourself, but you have to think clearly now, within half an hour, if I don't go out, the government will definitely send someone here to find me, even if you don't do anything to me, but Cao can only tell the government truthfully, saying that you are privately detaining prisoners!"

"You!"

At this time, it was Li Ruolan who was even more anxious.

She looked serious, and kept thinking about countermeasures in her heart, but after a while, she didn't seem to think of any good solution.

After all, barefoot people are not afraid of wearing shoes.

Not only does she have to think about her own reputation, but the reputation of the Li Mansion is just as important!

Especially in these extraordinary times!

Because after today's communication, she knows that Li Renping still has a chance to come out, and if Li Renping hears those gossips when he comes out, it will definitely not be a good thing!

Seeing Li Ruolan's hesitation, Cao Wei's heart stabilized a lot, and he began to look at Li Ruolan, and said: "Auntie, it's only two thousand taels, and it's just two meals for your Li Mansion. ”

After that, Cao Wei took the initiative to come to Li Ruolan and asked, "Auntie, you don't want to say that I am Li Yu's uncle when my classmates see me in the future, right?" ”

"You ......"

Li Ruolan's expression was ugly, and she hurriedly turned around: "Two thousand is two thousand, but how can you guarantee that you won't talk nonsense after you take the money and go out!" ”

Cao Wei suddenly straightened his chest: "Just kidding, what kind of person am I, Cao Huiyuan, how can I not talk a word?!" ”

"Okay, it's two thousand taels!"

Li Ruolan not only has hatred for Cao Wei in her heart, but also doesn't know how to say anything to her nephew.

Let's talk about it.

With a wave of her hand, the room lit up again.

Cao Wei looked at this scene with envy in his heart.

Just relying on internal strength to open and close the door, this is definitely not something that ordinary people can do!

Sure enough, you still have to have money in your family to practice martial arts!

"You come with me!"

Li Ruolan glanced at Cao Wei viciously, and then walked out of the door.

Cao Wei looked harmless to humans and animals, and followed behind.

To be honest, in fact, Cao Wei didn't want to make things like this, but he could only say that in this world, if there were really no means, maybe as early as in southern Yunnan, he didn't know how many times he died!

Damn, I still have to stay up for a while!

As long as he joins Jiyun Academy and becomes a Confucian student, it is impossible for this Li family to treat himself with this attitude!

Just like Li Ruolan said just now.

Even if you kill yourself here, there is definitely a way to hide from the world!

Huiyuan's identity is nothing at all!

It didn't take long for the two to come to the account room, and Li Ruolan immediately took out a silver ticket and handed it over to Cao Wei.

"Two thousand taels, you have taken it!"

"Thank you, Auntie!"

Cao Wei put away the silver ticket, and then prepared to turn around and leave.

"Wait!"

"What else does my aunt command?"

When Li Ruolan heard this, she took a deep breath: "After you return to the National Prison, let Li Yu's stinky boy come back quickly!" ”

"No problem!"

The corners of Cao Wei's mouth curled slightly, looking at Li Ruolan's expression, Li Yu was afraid that he would be beaten when he went home.

But it can't be helped!

Who made this Li Yuyin himself!

After nodding his head in agreement, Cao Wei quickly left the Li Mansion.

As soon as he crossed the threshold, he saw Guo Jia, who was already leaning against the stone lion and sleeping.

The cool breeze blew, and his entire back was shocked into a cold sweat.

He hurriedly stepped forward and pulled Guo Jia up.

Guo Jia rubbed his eyes: "Wei, Brother Wei, why did you come out so quickly!" ”

"Damn, you're really unreliable!"

Cao Wei smacked his lips.

If he really can't get out like this, I'm afraid Guo Jia will keep sleeping.

But if it is seen by the people of this Li Mansion, then Guo Jia will most likely be gone!

Glancing at the Li Mansion behind him again, Cao Wei shook his head again and again.

"Phew, don't come to this place again in the future!"

"But fortunately, now that I have the start-up capital, I can buy things and start making perfumes!"
