Li Xintian also went to arrange.

"She, as my mother said in the letter, is called Hu Qiuyan. ”

Huo Wanping pulled Hu Qiuyan to see Ronnie Lee and Chen Shuxia.

"I've seen you, ma'am. ”

Hu Qiuyan's face was slightly red, and he said with a slight salute.

"You don't need so many courtesies, just treat it as your own home when you come, just do it, in the house, there are not so many rules. ”

Chen Shuxia looked at Hu Qiuyan's knowledgeable appearance, and she was also satisfied, nodded her head, and said with a smile on her face.

"Madame is right, when you come, you should treat it as your own home, and after a few days, choose a good day, and I will let Tian'er go to the house to propose marriage. ”

Ronnie Lee was on the side, also nodding with satisfaction, and did not ask Hu Qiuyan's identity.

The two elders looked at each other and laughed.

Hu Qiuyan was red-faced, twisted and pinched, and didn't know what to say.

"Okay, okay, people have just arrived, so let's let Tian'er arrange a room to live in, and it will be a long time coming. ”

Huo Wanping helped Hu Qiuyan relieve the siege and said.

"Okay, I'll call Tian'er to come over and let him arrange it. ”

After Ronnie Lee finished speaking, he hurriedly left and called Li Xintian.

"Dad, you call me?"

Li Xintian was originally on the way, and he wanted to arrange for Hu Qiuyan to go home first, but after thinking about it, he didn't, he had a headache.

"You stinky boy, don't go and arrange a place for people to live, if there is anything you have to do here, let your brother and your cousin arrange it here, go quickly, and go to propose marriage in a few days. ”

Ronnie Lee came over, pulled Li Xintian, and asked Li Xintian to hurry up and arrange Hu Qiuyan.

"Good, good. ”

Li Xintian had no choice but to arrange Hu Qiuyan, and reluctantly walked next to Hu Qiuyan.

"Grandma, mother, I'm going to arrange the room where Qiu Yan lives. ”

Li Xintian stood next to Hu Qiuyan and said.

"Okay, I remember that there is still a room in your yard, so let's arrange to live in the same courtyard as you. ”

Chen Shuxia nodded and said.

"That'll do. ”

Li Xintian knew that he couldn't hide, so he had to agree and said, "Qiu Yan, let's go." ”

"Madam, old lady, I am out of company first. ”

Before Hu Qiuyan left, he didn't forget to say a word.

"Okay, I was bullied, so I told me that in the house, I can still cure this stinky boy. ”

Chen Shuxia didn't forget to follow Hu Qiuyan and said.

Hu Qiuyan blushed, nodded, and followed behind Li Xintian.

"When you come here, don't worry about anything, just like your own home, here, there are no rules, in a few days, I will go to the house to propose marriage, and give you a different wedding." ”

Li Xintian and Hu Qiuyan walked side by side, and said, when the next person touches Li Xintian, he will still shout, the eldest young master.

"Really? When?"

Hu Qiuyan said with a smile on his face.

"Of course, I have to wait for the wedding dress, I have to arrange it before I can tell you, don't worry. ”

Li Xintian said with a smile.

"Is that person the future grandmother? He looks so beautiful, I really envy him. ”

"Our eldest young master is very versatile, I don't know who the eldest young master will marry in the future. ”

The girls were all muttering softly, and they all knew that Hu Qiuyan was Li Xintian's wife.

Li Xintian walked into his yard and saw many subordinates, Yahuan was doing things.

"Great young master. ”

The subordinate and Yahuan saw Li Xintian and shouted.

In the yard, everything is very clean, and it can be seen that the subordinates and Yahuan are working hard.

"Everyone, the courtyard will be living in, your future grandmother, so, after a while, you can drink my happy wine. ”

Li Xintian said at the right time.

"Yes, young master. ”

"Congratulations, young master. ”

The subordinate and Yahuan said in unison.

"Okay, everybody, do a good job. ”

Li Xintian gave an order, and took Hu Qiuyan to another room, which was opposite the room where he slept.

"In the house, there are clean daily necessities, quilts. ”

Li Xintian opened the door and said.

"It's really clean in this yard. ”

Hu Qiuyan could indeed see that the yard was extremely clean.

"Of course, I'm self-denying and kind to others. ”

Although Li Xintian is self-denying and self-cultivation, but because he treats people well and is generous on weekdays, coupled with the kindness of his heart, and he is young and handsome, one of the maids in the house came in, and he took away the heart of a maid ring.

So in this world of serious dignity and humility, Li Xintian can easily stand out from the crowd and be different, which naturally makes women rush to it.

"You have a good rest, and tomorrow, you will go with me to meet your father. ”

Li Xintian did not enter the room and said.

"Good. ”

Hu Qiuyan entered the house and closed the door, his heart beat wildly, it was still like that, it felt like a dream.

Li Xintian had to go to the opposite room, and he also wanted to take a good rest.

The next day.

The position of the bed in Li Xintian's room is extremely elaborate and ingenious, and at the morning hour, the first rays of sunlight outside the window shine in and fall right on the head of the bed, which can quietly wake up the sleeping people.

At this moment, being irradiated by the sun, Li Xintian's eyelids moved slightly, and his consciousness gradually woke up, according to his usual habits, he must have gotten up to wash, but because he didn't have a good rest these days, he didn't have a good rest when he hurried back to Shuiwen County, but he wanted to lie in bed a little today, so he buried his head to avoid this annoying sunshine and continued to sleep soundly.

"By the way, today I'm going to take Qiu Yan to see my father. ”

Li Xintian violently opened the quilt, began to get dressed, washed up, and when he walked out of the room, he saw Hu Qiuyan, who was already waiting for him.

"Let's go. ”

When Li Xintian and Hu Qiuyan came to the lobby, they saw their father Li Qizong being angry at Steward Qian, scolding angrily, and looking very angry.

Steward Qian knelt on the ground but lowered his head, his face was like ashes, as if he had committed some unforgivable mistake.

The family members and maids waiting outside the door were even more trembling, not daring to approach.

"Dad, why are you so angry early in the morning, if you are angry, it will not be good. ”

Li Xintian said.

"It's coming. When Li Qizong saw Li Xintian coming, the anger on his face immediately subsided a lot, and then said: "What else can it be, this money housekeeper eats inside and out, my Li family's treasury is heavy, and I lost a full 10,000 taels of silver in January, you say that you should not be angry as a father." ”

"What?"

Li Xintian was also shocked, he had only been gone for a long time, and this happened to his family.

Ten thousand taels of silver were lost.

That's a lot of money.

After being born in this world, Li Xintian has long understood the preciousness of gold and silver, but it is not as written in the novel, what rich disciples can casually take out 10,000 taels of silver, hundreds of thousands of taels, here 10,000 taels of silver is already a very large amount of money, if it is a physical object, it can fill a large box.

"Dad, why did a good person lose so much money?"

Li Xintian asked.

"This has to ask the money housekeeper, he has always been in charge of the Li family's treasury for his father, and his father is loyal to the Li family, so he is relieved to hand over the treasury to him. ”

Ronnie Lee is nearly fifty years old, and he still has a loud voice, and he scolds people in a frightening way.

"Dad, don't be angry first, everything has to be investigated clearly before making a conclusion, Steward Qian has worked for our Li family for many years, it can be said that he has worked hard and is loyal, the child does not believe that Steward Li will fill his own pocket, and he is greedy for 10,000 taels of silver for our Li family. ”

Li Xintian said.

Ronnie Lee said: "How can my father be so stupid, my father has gone to the treasury to check before, and a whole box of silver is gone, and no one enters or leaves the treasury on weekdays, and the key is only in the hands of my father and the money steward. ”

When Li Xintian heard it, he felt that it made sense, so he looked at Steward Qian.

Steward Qian kowtowed vigorously at this time and begged for mercy: "Master, young master, this matter really has nothing to do with the villain, the villain really didn't greed for 10,000 taels of silver, please sir, the eldest young master is aware of it." ”

"What's the use of kowtowing, let me tell you, no matter what means you use, when you stole the 10,000 taels of silver from my Li family, give you three days, if you don't return the silver within three days, don't blame me for not thinking about the love of master and servant for many years, and I will kill you on the spot. ”

Ronnie Lee said angrily.

Steward Qian's face was pale with fright, and he wanted to cry without tears; "Master, it's really not a small one who took the 10,000 taels of silver, it's really not a small one, a small one is wronged." ”

"Come on, drag the money steward down and beat him thirty times, and see if he says it or not. ”

Ronnie Lee immediately shouted.

When even two strong men strode in, trying to drag the money steward down.

"Dad, this money housekeeper is nearly sixty years old, and his body is no longer as good as before, if he is not beaten with a thirty-weight stick, he will have his legs broken, that is, he will survive, and he will only be disabled in the future. ”

Li Xintian was a little unbearable at this time, and stood up and said: "If it is really the money housekeeper who stole the 10,000 taels of silver from our Li family, there should be clues to check, Shuiwen County is so big, which family is suddenly rich, which person suddenly makes a generous move, we can find out as soon as we check it, and when the time comes, we will naturally be able to find out the whereabouts of the silver." ”

"If the strange loss of the silver was not the work of the money steward, then we have wronged the good people, and the loss of the silver out of thin air is not necessarily the work of people. ”

Ronnie Lee felt reasonable, but when he heard it, he was slightly surprised: "Tian'er said that the loss of silver was not done by people?"

Li Xintian nodded and said, "Exactly." The silver is missing, it may be done by humanitarianism, it may also be a spirit stealing, or even a ghost greedy for money, passing by to take it. ”

"How is this possible. Ronnie Lee was stunned, he didn't expect that his own treasury would have so many means to take away the money inside.

"It's very likely. ”

Li Xintian nodded and said.

He is not talking nonsense, the world is so magical, there are many stories in which a certain rich businessman suffered retribution, was taken away by spirits, ghosts, and even some good female ghosts, goblins will treat the rich and noble people as money bags, and take money to repay their kindness.

Because if you carefully speculate on each story of Liaozhai, you will find that those things that help poor scholars, repay good people, and often spend hundreds of taels of silver always do not indicate where the money comes from.

You must know that real money can't be conjured out of thin air, even if some Taoists have a bit of a skill of turning stone into gold, it is just a trick, and it can't be true.

And in this world, the people who can have gold and silver are undoubtedly rich and noble.

Such as the Li family.

Therefore, Li Xintian felt that the loss of silver in the treasury was very likely to be related to this.

Only spirits and ghosts can take money without knowing it, and hide it from everyone.

However, the righteousness of the family has not been touched, so it means that there is something strange.
