"Aggressive ......"

"The meat is pork breast chops first, use a kitchen knife to follow the lines, cut the meat into long strips, and then chop the ribs into two-inch long pieces."

"After cutting, put it in a basin and add salt, a little cooking wine, green onions, and grasp the meat and mix it evenly with your hands."

"Woo ......"

In the kitchen of Building 5 of Coats Avenue Road, the two sons originally wanted to learn the cooking skills of making delicious dishes from their father, but when they saw Li Yuan holding one hand there, Li Si, who was a little clean, almost didn't vomit when he saw it.

Welcome the kind care of father and brother: "Get out!" ”

After Li Si ran away with his tail between his legs, Li Yuan continued to teach: "This is to get rid of the smell of meat and improve the taste level of eating." Pour in the base oil on the ear pot, and put the flavored pork ribs into the pan one by one for frying, during which the spoon is slightly pushed to avoid the pork ribs sticking to each other and sticking to the bottom of the pan. Fry until the surface of the ribs is slightly crispy, and immediately remove and drain with a large colander. Leave an appropriate amount of base oil in the pot, add the shallots and stir-fry until fragrant, then cook in the cooking wine, pour the pork ribs in, add water and only need to cover the ribs. ”

"At this time, you can put in white sugar and a little red yeast powder to enhance the flavor and color, and then turn on the low heat and slowly burn it into the flavor, an hour and a half later, it is the brown-red pork ribs, and then add an appropriate amount of old vinegar to neutralize the taste of the ribs, and then pour in a little oil before going out of the pot, and stir-fry it slightly evenly."

"Look at these ribs, the color is bright red, let's try it...... Is it sweet and then sour in the mouth, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside? This is authentic sweet and sour pork ribs! ”

Li Xing ate the ribs in his mouth, his happy eyes narrowed, and he took off a trumpet Li Yuan.

Lou Xiao'e's youngest son Li Si came out of nowhere at this time, his eyes turned into crescent moons, and he called: "Dad......"

Li Yuan was puzzled: "Who are you?" ”

Li Xing laughed, Li Si wanted to cry without tears: "Dad, I'm Xiao Si!" ”

Li Yuan smiled and gave him a small piece of ribs, and said, "Three years old looks big, seven years old looks old." After the age of seven, you will cheat and play tricks like this, not to mention pork ribs, there is no pig butt, remember. ”

Li Si nibbled on the delicious ribs while nodding dejectedly.

Li Xing grinned and said, "Brother, can you get up at five o'clock tomorrow morning?" ”

"Yes!!"

……

Can be a fart, four-year-old children are snooze, and they are pampered, how can they suffer from this?

Lou Xiu couldn't bear to say: "Forget it, let's get up early in two years, I'm growing up." ”

Li Yuanle said: "It is said that the eldest is a fool, the second is a traitor, and there is a bad third in the family." Now I see that the boss is good, the second child is really rape, I don't know if the third child is bad or not. ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Lou Xiu's stomach.

Working hard day and night, I just don't know which one has the third child first.

Lou Xiuqiao's face flushed, she glanced at Li Yuan, and was about to say something, when she saw Lou Xiao'e with her hair scattered and yawning, walked to Li Si's bed, and slapped her face.

Li Si sat up with a spirit, and looked at everyone with distracted eyes:

What's wrong? Who am I? Where am I?

Lou Xiu reproached "Ah", Lou Xiao'e yawned again, and said, "How can you expect him to be self-conscious?" When I first came to Hong Kong Island, I didn't practice the rice balls every day. Go, go, go, I'll go back and sleep for a while. ”

As he spoke, he turned around and left.

……

Central, Mid-Levels.

Lee Mansion.

Zhang Ruilian, the highest-ranking lady of the Li family, gathered the eldest son, second son, third son and fourth son in the family.

Lee Hysan has a total of four wives and fifteen sons, but after his death, in addition to the original Huang Lanfang, only the eldest son and second son born by Zhang Ruilian and the third and fourth sons born by the original partner are in charge of the Lee Consortium.

There are not many opportunities for the whole family to get together on weekdays, but today Zhang Ruilian summoned so solemnly, the four brothers did not dare to slack off and arrived early.

Hong Kong Island is a magical place, if you want to say that there is culture, but it is recognized as a cultural desert.

If you want to say that you have no culture, you take the word loyalty and filial piety very seriously.

If you are put on the hat of disloyalty and unfilial piety, you are basically self-defeating.

Even the rotten boy in the club, who fights and kills all the bad things outside, often becomes a filial son when he returns home, otherwise he will be spurned by the rivers and lakes......

"Big brother, what's the matter with Mommy? If you don't miss something, just give me a call. ”

The third Li Xiaohe sat on the sofa and asked with a smile, speaking of which, he is the eldest son of Lee Hysan, and he is also the strongest in terms of ability, and now he has founded TVB to raise the reputation of the Lee family again.

The eldest Li Mingze is even closer to this lively half-brother than his brother Li Mingqia, and he also took Li Xiaohe to study in Oxford with him, and scolded with a smile: "How do I know what happened to my mother suddenly?" Missing something to call you? When did you become the eldest in the family, why don't I know? ”

Li Xiaohe laughed and said, "It's okay to call you!" ”

As he was talking, a Li family self-combing maid walked out with a white-haired but kind old woman, and the four sons of the Li family hurriedly stood up to greet him.

Zhang Ruilian smiled and nodded, and after sitting down, she also said straight to the point: "I called you here today to make a fate for you." ”

The four people who had just sat down stood up again, and Li Xiaohe complained: "Mommy, you said yes, it seems that we have all become unfilial sons, and even your old man has to open his mouth himself for food." Wow, it's spread that our brothers don't have the face to be human anymore. ”

Li Mingze said: "Mother, is there any big expense?" ”

The amount of money they give to the old lady every year is not a small amount.

Zhang Ruilian nodded, looked at Li Rongsen, the youngest of the four, but he was also in his fifties this year, and said, "Fourth, you have liked to collect since you were a child, and your eyesight is very good." ”

Li Rongsen said "ouch", and said with an immodest smile: "Mommy, if you praise it, you are so much better than the eldest brother, second brother, and third brother." ”

Although they are all old, they are not stingy with colorful clothes to entertain their relatives.

"Hit the streets!"

"Decrepit boy!"

There was a burst of laughter and scolding, and there are indeed not many wealthy families like their family who have no major contradictions between brothers.

However, because of this, in the more than 40 years since Lee Hysan was killed, the Lee family has not only fallen apart, but has risen step by step and prospered with such fat as half of Causeway Bay.

Zhang Ruilian waited for them to joke, took out a photo, asked the self-combing maid to hand it to Li Rongsen, and said, "Look at it, this is true or false." ”

As the owner of the Hong Kong Island Minqiu Lodge, Lee Wing Sen is quite famous in the entire Chinese world collecting circle.

After Li Rongsen took the photo, his eyes slowly widened, he couldn't believe his eyes, after looking at it for a while, he put his face close to the photo, and after looking at it carefully for a while, he looked at Mrs. Li in disbelief, and said, "Mommy, this is ...... How is this possible? ”

Seeing him behaving like this, the old lady also became excited, and said, "Senzai, is this possible true?" ”

Li Rongsen twitched: "Of course it's true!" Every detail is right, but it's impossible! This thing is the treasure of Buddhism, this ...... Why is it all half-cut, only the upper body, the base of the lotus platform? Mommy, the photo may be a fake ......"

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly remembered something, his face was ugly, and he couldn't speak for a while.

The three brothers of the Li family probably understood a little, and Li Mingze sighed and said: "I knew that there was a lot of trouble in the north, and the tombs of the emperor and the prime minister were stripped away, and the bodies of Zhang Zhidong, a famous minister in the late Qing Dynasty, and his wife were all pulled out and exposed to the sun. The temple was demolished and the temple was destroyed, and Confucius's house was also destroyed. I didn't expect that even such a treasure ......"

The old lady recited the Buddha number a few times, and Li Xiaohe understood, and said, "Mommy, do you want to buy this home?" ”

"Yes, please!"

Mrs. Li Jiatai said very seriously: "This is the eight-year-old statue of the Buddha who has opened the light, and it is recorded in the Buddhist scriptures that after the death of the Buddha's mother, he wanted to go to heaven to give his mother a lecture, but the king of the world is reluctant, and if he can't see the Buddha, he will be seriously ill." Originally, the Buddha did not like to stand up to statues, but for the sake of his followers, he still chose to erect three Buddha statues, eight years old, twelve years old and twenty-five years old. This one is an eight-year-old body, but unfortunately it was judged by someone with a saw, and it was supposed to be pulled to melt the copper. Fortunately, my Buddha has the Dharma Protector Vajra, risking death to escort the escape, willing to find the door of the Buddha's fate, stored for 12 years, and after the wind calms down in the north, the Buddha statue will be sent back to the Buddha Gate, and the lotus platform is one. This is a great merit! ”

Looking at their mother's pious appearance, the four brothers understood that this unjust amount of money seemed to be indispensable.

If this money is not given, the mother and son will not be able to do it in the future......

The four of them gritted their teeth with hatred in their hearts, and they didn't know which one was targeted by the street.

Li Mingze said with a smile: "Old lady, it is a good thing to invite this Buddha fate, which can bless the well-being of our whole family." ”

The old lady was overjoyed, nodded and said, "Yes, this is the real Buddha's fate!" ”

Li Rongsen said with a smile: "Mommy, then we have to send more incense money to this Buddhist protector, which can be regarded as our heart." ”

Li Xiaohe and Le said: "Mommy, there is always a number, just say it." If you haven't negotiated, I'll talk to this Dharma Protector. ”

The old lady of the Li family shook her head and said, "What people said is very clear, there is no need to talk about it anymore." Five million incense money a year, paid every four years, until twelve years. ”

"Five...... Million?! It's only been a year?!! ”

The four brothers were all shocked, and a mansion in Repulse Bay was now only one million, five million...... What kind of people, poor and crazy, right?

This is called the Dharma protector of Buddhism, and the double flower red stick of the community is not so ruthless.

The old lady said in a deep voice: "Those who hope to get this Buddha fate are not only our Li family, but also the wife of the Ma family." As she spoke, her voice became like a pious atonement, and she said, "You also know that your father and the Ma family are all families that rely on public cigarettes. In the early years, I don't know how many people cursed us for earning money that cut off our children and grandchildren......"

Li Mingze was relieved: "Mom, it was legal to smoke in those years. ”

Mrs. Li shook her head and said, "It's easy to deceive people, but it's hard to deceive people. After the old man was assassinated, if it weren't for me and my wife who have been worshipping the Buddha for 40 years, how would you be safe and prosperous today? ”

The four brothers of the Li family are not very comfortable in their hearts, they fight desperately, and in the end they become the credit of the bald donkey......

However, I thought about it in my heart and quickly emptied it.

Hong Kong people generally believe in these things, but they are afraid that if it is true, it will be bad if they scold the Buddha?

Li Mingze is the boss, and he said in a deep voice: "Mom, can you let us meet this Buddhist protector, after all, it is not a small amount." My father bought half of Causeway Bay that year, and it was only 3.8 million ......."

The old lady said angrily: "Forty years ago, 3.8 million is more than 300 million now. Then I will mortgage my shares to the Kadoorie family......"

"Eh, eh!"

The four brothers hurriedly stopped and made some jokes. If this is the case, not only will the reputation of the four brothers be ruined, but it will also lead the wolf into the house.

The business of the Li family consortium overlaps a lot with the Kadoorie family, hotels, real estate, banks, etc., if you really want to open an opening to let the Kadoorie family in, they can still block it when they are there, and when they are gone, where can the descendants of the family stop a deep-sea giant like Kadoorie?

Looking at the old lady who was dead and wanted to invite half of the Buddha statue home by smashing pots and selling iron, the four of them breathed helplessly in their hearts.

It's like decades later, the sons and daughters of the grandparents who are devout and superstitious about health care products and financial products......

……

"Mr. Li, you are really young and promising!"

As a top student at Oxford University, Li Xiaohe looked at the smiling young man in front of him, and he gritted his teeth and said, his eyes were not good.

All kinds of scolding of "slapping your mother" resounded in my heart.

Li Yuan shook his head with a smile and said slowly: "It's Mrs. Lijiatai, who has a relationship with my Buddha." "Hand-made flowers.

Behind him, it is the Buddha shrine that the Li family repaired overnight, offering the eight-year-old statue of the Buddha.

Seeing Li Yuan's posture standing in front of the Buddha, Zhang Ruilian, the wife of the Li family, looked sacred, like bathing in the light of the Buddha.

It is worthy of being the Dharma protector of Buddhism, although he is a lay disciple, he still has Buddha nature.

Old Roland, who was chatting with Li Mingze, the boss of the Li family, was speechless for a while when he saw Li Yuan like this.

Without him, the operation is too sassy.

The four brothers of the Li family are even more eager to lead a dog to extinguish the fire every day, so as not to be tempted to beat this to death!

After seeing Li Yuan receive four five-million-Hong Kong dollar HSBC cheques from Zhang Ruilian, Old Roland began to wonder who was the Jew......

If it is sold to the Li family, the key is rent!

Harrell actually said that this kid cultivates some kind of sincerity, and today he should really let him take a look at this kid's virtue......

After receiving the check, Li Yuan glanced at Li Xiaohe's face, muttered for a while, and said to Zhang Ruilian, the wife of the Li family: "Mrs. Tai is devout to the Buddha, and the Buddha will send mercy to him." Although the name of Mrs. Guantai's three sons is harmonious, there is a lot of anger in their faces, and they are afraid that there is a heart disease, so they may wish to pay more attention. Say goodbye, don't send. ”

After Li Yuan and Lao Luo Lan left the Li Mansion, Zhang Ruilian stared at Li Xiaohe's face, and he was uncomfortable when he looked at him, and said with a smile: "Mommy, this flutter...... What this person said is not what the Buddha said, so you don't have to take it seriously, right? ”

Zhang Ruilian shook her head and said to the boss Li Mingze: "You take him to check his heart, go now, I will wait in front of the Buddha." ”

She didn't believe that the Vajra Dharma Protector would speak in front of the Buddha.

The old lady rarely interfered in their affairs, it was rare to speak, and she had to listen if she didn't listen, and besides, the Li brothers also wanted to see if the money was worth it.

Rich people naturally do things quickly, but an hour later, when Li Mingze came back with Li Xiaohe, both of them had a little heavy faces.

Li Rongsen, who nominally accompanied the old lady to worship the Buddha, but actually carefully admired the eight-year-old statue of the Buddha, was startled when he saw this, and asked, "Big brother, third brother, are you okay?" ”

Li Xiaohe's face was pale, and Li Mingze said to Mrs. Li: "The third child really has a heart attack, but fortunately, it was discovered early." ”

The only trace of distress in Mrs. Li's heart disappeared without a trace, and after reciting the Buddha's name, she said earnestly: "I know that you don't believe it in your hearts, thinking that I am old and confused, and let people deceive me." Now you know that the Buddha is compassionate, right? Money is not spent in vain......"

……

"Am I deceiving people? Not to mention the old lady of the Li family, just with the last sentence, the Li family's money was not spent in vain. ”

Leaving the Li Mansion, Li Yuan took the old Roland's Dodge car to the pier, ready to take the ferry across the sea to Tsing Yi Island, and he felt very indignant about the slander of the old Roland on the car.

Old Roland thought about it, and it seemed to be true.

Not all heart diseases have symptoms, and many negative heart diseases are not diagnosed until sudden death occurs, which is very risky.

Old Roland asked, "Does the third child of the Li family really have a heart attack?" ”

Li Yuan smiled and said, "Eighty percent sure, his face is not very good, faintly gray, and there is a faint purple. Of course, there is generally no anomaly. He may be a little angry today, but he doesn't know why......"

Old Roland laughed and said, "Since you can see that he has a heart attack, why don't you treat him for him?" Maybe four more checks will be collected. Although the Lee family has not been very publicized over the years, they are really rich people, landlords in Causeway Bay. ”

Li Yuan shook his head and said: "Fodu is destined to be a person, medicine does not die of disease, I don't treat everyone." ”

Old Roland looked at Li Yuan and smiled: "No wonder Harrell likes you, you are indeed different." Do you think that the Li family used to be the king of public smoke, so they didn't treat their family, right? Luckily, our ancestors didn't do this business. ”

Li Yuan was noncommittal, seeing that the car was slowly parked on the dock, and the cross-sea bridge was being built not far away, he said: "Old Roland, this bridge is estimated to be repaired for several years." ”

Old Roland smiled: "Li, if everything is ready-made, is it possible to draw land on Tsing Yi Island at will?" Now that you have the money, I suggest that you change the 200 acres of land to 500 acres, and if you want to acquire such a large piece of land on Hong Kong Island at such a low price, this should be the last chance. 500 acres can be divided into two halves, half for industrial areas and half for manors......"

Li Yuan said speechlessly: "More than two hundred acres of manor, how can I have so much money to repair it...... Wow, old Roland, or you're going to make money. The Li family hasn't given the money for the next ten years, so you can count it in. ”

Old Roland laughed and said: "Li, believe me, you will not regret spending this money, the money is not spent in vain." I'll build a manor next door to your manor, and we'll be neighbors then." ”

Li Yuan smiled and said, "Old Roland, you are really calculating, you are really like my neighbor when I was on the mainland." I miss them so much, and they will miss me too, and they all praise me as the best neighbor. ”

Old Roland always felt that these words were somewhat watery......
