Li Zhen didn't have anything to do in the afternoon, so he returned to the house in Fushanfang, he hadn't been home for more than ten days, and he didn't know how his eldest sister was now?

But Li Zhen knocked on the door for a long time, but no one opened the door, so Li Zhen had no choice but to go to the Nanshi Wine Shop.

There are five days before the New Year, and the crowds in Nanshi are surging, basically ordinary people who come to buy New Year's goods, and there are many small traders who buy goods, carrying packages and carrying burdens, and ox carts and deer carts fill the roads, making Nanshi become crowded.

The liquor store street is also full of people, approaching the New Year, every household has to prepare a large amount of wine, so that the business of each liquor shop is very hot, hundreds of people are crowded in front of the gate of Yashijun, outside the gate, the store is crowded with people who buy wine, there is nowhere to stay.

The steward Ah Cai was so busy that his feet did not touch the ground, directing the guys to carry the wine and goods, Li Zhen looked around the door, but did not see the figure of the eldest sister.

"Ah Cai!"

Li Zhen opened his throat in the noise and asked, "Have you seen my eldest sister?"

As soon as the words fell, he only felt that the back of his head was hit by a 'bang', and it was that familiar feeling again, he covered his head and turned around slowly, only to see his old sister standing behind her with her waist crossed, her willow eyebrows upside down, and an empty wine gourd in her hand.

Her fierce expression reminded Li Zhen of when he was a child, he spent the night outside and didn't return, and the old lady was ready to beat him with a stick, which is what he looks like now.

"Sister, you won't want to twist my ears again, will you!" Li Zhen noticed that the eldest sister's hand began to move again, and his heart suddenly became vigilant.

Li Quan really wanted to twist his ear, but thanks to Li Zhen's reminder, she remembered that she had promised not to beat him again, but the promise was guaranteed, this kid really made her angry.

"Stinky boy, I came back yesterday, why didn't I go home last night?"

"Sister, was I on duty in the palace last night, I didn't sleep all night, I wrote a report in the morning, and I was called by Gao Fujun at noon, didn't you see that my eyes were red?"

He leaned his face closer, pointed to his eyes and grinned, "See, his eyes are bloodshot, like rabbits." ”

'Like a rabbit' is a joke that their sister and brother have often made since childhood, Li Quan often laughs at the brother who runs faster than a rabbit, does things like a rabbit with a head and no tail, eats like a rabbit and likes to eat turnips, plus the brother is a rabbit.

Hearing these familiar words, Li Quan's heart suddenly felt a burst of warmth, and a little bit of anger in her heart disappeared, and she knocked him on the head with a smile.

"Go back to sleep first, and the eldest sister will clean you up when she gets back!"

"Eldest sister, there is no one at home!"

Li Quan frowned, "Your brother-in-law is at home!" He is unwell today, he takes a day off to rest at home, and Xiao Lian is also at home, didn't she open the door for you?"

Li Zhen was also a little strange in his heart, the door was not locked, indicating that there were people in the family, but he knocked on the door for a long time, and no one answered, could it be that his brother-in-law was asleep?

Li Zhen scratched his head, "I'm just here to say hello to my sister first, or I'll knock on the door again." ”

At this time, Li Quan remembered something, hurriedly pulled him aside, and said in a low voice: "A few days ago, a businessman from Zhangye told me a piece of news."

Hearing that it was from Zhangye, Li Zhen remembered Kang Sisi, and I don't know how she is now? and Kang Dazhuang, there is no news of him after parting, does this kid want to come to Luoyang?

Li Quan really knew his brother, and when he saw that he was distracted again, he knocked him with a wine gourd, "Listen well!"

"Hmm!"

"This businessman bought a manor in Lingzhou last year, but because he is not from the Tang Dynasty, the title deed was stuck by the government, and he didn't do it for a year, and he doesn't want it now, and he plans to transfer it 30% cheaper than the original price, which is enough for 50 hectares of land, and I want to buy it and plant grapes." ”

"Wait!"

Li Zhen hurriedly stopped the eldest sister's words, "Sister, have you been there, how do you know that grapes can be grown there? ”

Li Quan said with a smile: "Of course I won't buy it so recklessly, after all, the price is not expensive, didn't you get a secret note in Gaochang last time? I have been studying it, and it is clearly written on it, the water and soil in Lingzhou are very suitable for growing grapes, the sun is good, the water source is sufficient, and it is sandy soil."

I just wanted to buy a piece of land in Lingzhou, and it just so happened that this businessman was talking about it, and I planned to go to Lingzhou after the New Year to see the manor with my own eyes. ”

"What does my sister need me to do?"

Li Quan smiled and said: "You help my sister take care of the official mansion, I am worried that there will be problems in the official mansion when the title deed is transferred, because the original owner of the manor has left, and their transaction has been completed, but the title deed has not been transferred, which is definitely not good." ”

Li Zhen nodded, "I know, I'll inquire!"

Li Quan touched his brother's head lovingly, "Go back to sleep! ”

"Sister, then I'll go first. ”

Li Zhen turned over and got on the horse, waved to the eldest sister, and urged the horse to leave slowly, Li Quan kept looking at his brother and walked away, at this time, the shopkeeper Wang of the wine shop on the left bank came over and said with a smile: "Li Dongzhu, that is your brother!"

"It's him, my brother is good!"

Li Quan smiled proudly: "He looks like a talent, and he mixes well, and he will participate in martial arts soon." ”

"Your brother is indeed promising, and he was actually promoted to a knighthood, everyone praises him, Li Dongzhu is blessed!"

Li Quan's face bloomed with a smile, she liked to hear others praise her brother, she and the shopkeeper Wang exchanged a few more words, turned around and walked towards the shop.

But after walking a few steps, her footsteps stopped again, and there was a trace of doubt in her heart, her husband was obviously at home, and Xiao Lian should also be at home, why did the brothers knock on the door for a long time, but they didn't open it?

In the study of the back house, the maid Li'er wore heavy makeup, wearing a good silver clay skirt that Li Quan was usually reluctant to wear, and Jiao Didi lay in the arms of her master Cao Wen, feeding a glass of wine into the mouth of the man behind her from time to time.

"Did you say it could be your yellow-faced brother?"

Cao Wen buried his head in sniffing the osmanthus oil she smeared on the show, but his hands greedily reached into her skirt and groped, and he smiled and said, "He went to Songshan, how could he come back so soon?"

Li'er took a sip of wine and squinted her eyes comfortably, it feels really good to be a hostess, she doesn't want to be a maid who lives by looking at people's eyes.

"Cao Lang, you promised me, when did you divorce that yellow-faced woman and marry me into the door?"

"Don't worry, I've had enough of that fierce woman, and when the imperial examination is over, I will definitely divorce her and give you an explanation. ”

Cao Wen's heart was hot again, he pulled away her skirt, pressed her down on the seat, ripped off her skirt, and gasped: "You give it to me first!"

But at this moment, the door of the study was kicked open, and Li Zhen was seen standing outside the door with an angry face, clenching his fists, and a couple of men and women in the room screamed in fright.

Li Zhen's worst worry was finally born, he was so angry that his chest was about to explode, the eldest sister was working hard outside, but this bastard was there

He couldn't hold back the anger in his heart any longer, and strode into the room, grabbed Cao Wen's head in a rage, and knocked him out with a hard punch.

Xiao Lian, who was lying below, hurriedly grabbed her skirt to cover her naked body, and crawled to the corner of the wall, shrinking into a ball of fright.

Li Zhen saw her holding her eldest sister's long skirt, and thought that she had just asked Cao Wen to divorce his wife, he was extremely angry in his heart, "You slut!" He clenched his fists and rushed over.

"Don't!"

Cao Wen, who was stunned, finally reacted, he saw that Li Zhen was going to beat Xiao Pian, so he hurriedly rushed over and stopped Li Zhen, "This matter has nothing to do with her!"

Li Zhen pinched Cao Wen's neck, lifted him up, slammed his back against the wall, and yelled at him: "You well-dressed bastard, are you worthy of my eldest sister?"

Cao Wen's face was red when he was pinched, his eyes showed a fierce light, and he shouted hoarsely: "It's your eldest sister who can't give birth to a child, but I want a son, and the Cao family can't be broken!"

Li Zhen's hand loosened slightly, but he slapped him hard and scolded: "So you have an affair with the maid and mess around at home behind your eldest sister's back, and you still have a strong voice and put the responsibility on my eldest sister, are you still a man?"

Although Li Zhen knew that the eldest sister was also responsible, she was busy doing business and making money all day long, and she invisibly snubbed her husband, but this was by no means a reason why Cao Wen could betray her eldest sister, he spent all day drinking outside, and the eldest sister had already tolerated it, and he was still having an affair with the maid at home.

Cao Wen knew that he was at a loss, lowered his head and didn't dare to speak, Li Zhen stared at him for a long time, slowly let go of him, turned back and pointed at Xiao Pian and scolded: "Get out, you shameless woman!"

Xiao Lian covered her face and ran out crying, Li Zhen finally calmed down, and he also understood in his heart that although Cao Wen did something sorry for his eldest sister, it was certain that Xiao Lian seduced Cao Wen first.

She seduced herself last time, but she didn't pay attention to her, she turned to Cao Wen's idea, plus Cao Wen was a womanizer from the beginning, how could he refuse this cheap woman's embrace?

But in any case, this matter can't be big, Li Zhen doesn't want to ruin her eldest sister's marriage because of a maid.

"What do you say now?" Li Zhen asked coldly.

Cao Wen said with a gloomy face: "I want to marry Xiao Lian as a concubine, if she refuses to agree, everyone will break up!"

The anger in Li Zhen's heart ignited again, he grabbed Cao Wen's clothes, gritted his teeth and said to him: "Let me warn you first, you have handled this matter well, I can not tell my eldest sister, otherwise even if you pass the imperial examination, I will let the emperor delete your fame, I don't believe you wait and see!"

After speaking, he threw Cao Wen to the ground, got up and strode away, Cao Wen sat up slowly, with a worried look in his eyes, he was not afraid of anything else, he was afraid that Li Zhen would ruin his reputation and future, and Li Zhen's threat hit him to the point

Li Zhen returned to his room, his heart was angry, he kicked the bed hard, and sat down at the small table, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, he simply took out the wine bottle and wine glass from the cupboard, poured himself a glass of wine, drank it in one gulp, and finally slowly suppressed the anger in his heart.

Since the last time Li Zhenxian's maid's heart was not right, he also specially reminded the eldest sister, but now that the matter is really out, the eldest sister is also responsible, how can she let the lonely man and widow stay at home alone.

Although Cao Wen is not a good thing, the eldest sister has a deep affection for him, and they have to solve this matter by themselves, and they can't interfere too much.

Thinking that the eldest sister still has no children, which has become the biggest hidden danger between her and Cao Wen, and sooner or later this hidden danger will explode, Li Zhen was even more upset, drank more than a dozen glasses of wine in a row, and fell asleep without feeling a little drunk

In the evening, Li Quan went home, she knocked on the door for a while, but it was her mother-in-law Meng Shi who opened the door, she couldn't help but feel a little strange in her heart, and asked: "Mother-in-law, why are you opening the door, Xiao Pien?"

Meng Shi said slowly: "She went to Aunt Nanyang, last time her aunt wrote a letter and asked her to go to Hanzhong for the New Year, don't you know?"

"I don't know!"

Li Quan was really a little angry in his heart, when Xiao Pian told her, her parents were dead, she had no relatives, and she bought her when she saw that she was pitiful, but she didn't expect that she still had an aunt, she actually hid herself.

"She never told me that she still has an aunt, isn't she an orphan?"

A trace of nervousness flashed in Meng's eyes, and she wanted to cover up the ugly incident for her son, so she quickly explained: "She told me, I thought you knew it, so I gave her a little money for the journey, and she left at noon today." ”

Li Quan was relieved, no wonder his brother knocked on the door for a long time and no one opened the door, it turned out that she had already left, but she should say something to herself.

"And when will she be back?"

"I didn't ask, it should have been the Shangyuan Festival! Leave her alone, have you eaten? The Left Bank Restaurant just delivered the food. ”

"Well, I'll do it myself, what about Buddha?"

"In the inner hall, waiting for you to eat together. ”

"Hey, he'll just eat first, why wait for me. ”

Li Quan was happy in his heart, and walked quickly to the inner hall, the table in the inner hall was full of wine and food, and her husband Cao Wen sat at the table and drank alone.

Li Quan washed his hands in the copper basin, sat down opposite her husband, and asked with a smile, "Where is Ah Zhen?"

Cao Wen was uneasy, he reluctantly smiled and poured a glass of wine for his wife, "Xiaopang came to him just now, and they went out." ”

Cao Wen discussed with his mother in the afternoon, and the two felt that it was important to keep their reputation, so they sent Xiao Lian away first, and at the same time he assured Li Zhen that he would not do anything like this again, and begged Li Zhen not to tell Li Quan about it, and Li Zhen left in silence.

Li Quan was too busy with business because the New Year was approaching, she knew that she didn't care enough about her husband, and she neglected him a little, and she was really sorry in her heart.

"Tomorrow I will buy a few more maids and servants, and the shopkeeper Wang of the Left Bank Restaurant also promised to introduce me to a good housekeeper, the family has a little more population, and the New Year is also lively. ”

Cao Wen raised his glass and said with a smile: "Actually, I like to be quiet, the imperial examination will start in late January, this month is very important, I will go all out, I also said to King Liang, I only go for half a day every day, I hope I can pass the exam." ”

Li Quan hesitated, there was something she couldn't speak, but she still had to say, "Husband, I want to go to Lingzhou after the New Year, there is a manor for sale over there, I want to go and see, it will take about half a month, you see"

"That's a good thing!"

Cao Wen smiled and said: "I have long advised you, don't rely on the Wang family, that kind of person is unreliable, I support you to go to Lingzhou." ”

Li Quan didn't expect her husband to agree so happily, she was overjoyed, and hurriedly sat down beside him, hugged his neck, kissed him heavily on the face, snuggled in his arms and coquettishly said: "It's still my husband who is reasonable, let's work hard for two years, I will help you take a concubine again, and I don't want the Cao family to break off." ”

Cao Wen hugged his wife, and he was a little ashamed in his heart, but when he thought of his career, this shame gradually faded
