Chapter three hundred and eighty fourth trouble
After Jiang Xian put the genealogy, the Li family was lively for two more days, and the crowd gradually dissipated. The Li family began to pack up the tables, chairs, benches, dishes, and utensils for banquets. Perhaps because Li Changqing was holding on, Li Qian and Jiang Xian were idle. Li Qian wanted to take Jiang Xian to the back mountain to grab a pheasant and raise it in the yard where they lived. As a result, when Li Lin came to visit Li Qian, he stepped on a piece of chicken shit, and the pheasant hairpin in the yard was also scattered by the pheasant.
Li Lin's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. When he knew that the jade hairpin had been scattered, he burst into laughter and said to Li Qian: "I think you'd better eat this pheasant jinbao? I'll give you a few pheasants to my younger brother and sister tomorrow, that's what it's beautiful!"
Li Qian didn't expect this to happen, so he had to lock up the pheasant and asked Li Lin: "Why did you come here so early? Have you used breakfast?"
Li Lin smiled and said, "Didn't you use breakfast yet? You can do it! It's quite like the king will not go to court early from now on!"
Everyone in the Li family knew that Li Qian had promised the Jiang family that he would not meet with her before Jiang Xian and the hairpin. Li Lin also said this. In addition, Li Qian remembered that he couldn't help but get up so early just now, and his face looked a little bad. While asking Li Lin if he wanted to have breakfast with him, he went to the east wing by himself.
Li Linqi said: "Have you brother and sister-in-law not yet got up?"
Li Qian thought of Jiang Xian's quiet face after he fell asleep and the charm of her hair scattered on the big red mandarin ducks playing on the pillow of the water, so he didn't want to talk to Li Lin about Jiang Xian.
"She hasn't gotten up yet, let's stop quarreling at her." Li Qian said shortly and led Li Lin into the east wing.
The three rooms in the east wing were arranged into Li Qian's inner courtyard study room.
Li Qian and Li Lin sat on the Taishi chair in the Ming Dynasty for breakfast.
Li Lin said: "Do you know what Li Ji is doing?"
Li Qian knew from Li Lin's tone that Li Ji had probably gone to trouble with Li Xuefu's family as Jiang Xian ordered.
But he didn't want to hear this, so he reminded Li Lin indifferently: "Don't eat or sleep. If you have anything to do, I'll talk about it later."
Li Lin's face suddenly turned red, and he lowered his head and barely drank the bowl of porridge and put down his chopsticks.
Li Qian had a very good appetite. Not only did he drink a bowl of porridge, he also ate five big meat buns.
It was already half an hour later when he put the chopsticks, rinsed his mouth, and updated his clothes.
Li Lin looked a little subtle and smiled: "Zong Quan, it seems that after you marry the princess, you learned the rules of these great families by 10%!"
Li Qian said lightly: "It's not a special thing, but I think it makes sense to do this - I'm sorting myself out and seeing the guests, and it's also a kind of respect for the guests!"
When the Li family became rich, Li Lin was older than Li Qian, and some living habits were even harder to change.
Li Qian had no intention of discussing these with him and asked him: "Are you here to come to me for Aji's affairs?" Then he said without waiting for him to speak, "I know about Aji's affairs. I asked him to make trouble. There is no reason to let the transfer family go. It's good to let the eldest sister remarry, and it's nothing wrong to find a husband. But look at what people they have found for the eldest brother. No one is willing to marry in food, drink, gamble, and no one is willing to marry, but the one who gives the most bride price. What is the difference between selling a daughter-in-law? Our Li family is now in the limelight. Their family dares to do this. What was the life of the eldest sister in the years we went to Fujian? Have you ever asked? Not only did I ask Aji to make trouble, I also told him that I will take care of it if something happens. I will do whatever he wants, and don't have to worry about it!"
Li Lin wanted to speak but stopped.
He felt that Li Qian today seemed a little different from usual.
It seems to be more irritable, less impatient, and more impulsive.
But now it is rumored that the Li family is bullying others with their power and the Li family is upstart. It is not a good thing to have such rumors.
He thought about it and said, "We didn't care about my elder sister in those years. I'm sorry for her. But you can't let Aji make such a fool of himself? Do you know how the Li family is spreading to us? Do you know what Aji has done? You were not such a petty person before, but why did you have to forgive me this time..."
Li Qian frowned.
This is indeed not his idea.
If his idea was cleaner and neat, he would knock that family over and step on his feet. But Jiang Xian liked to do this, he would have to admit it.
"Don't worry about this matter, I have my own sensibility!" Li Qian changed the subject and asked about the Li family's purchase of the sacrificial field. "Did the Seventeenth Duke agree? If you don't agree, add some more money."
Li Changqing handed over this matter to Li Lin, and according to Li Changqing's wishes, Li Lin would be in charge of the Li family's sacrificial field at that time, and Li Lin was quite concerned about it after hearing this.
Seeing that Li Qian was unwilling to talk about this, Li Lin stopped the topic.
After all, Li Ji was Li Qian's younger brother, and he was separated from him by the front of the house. He should say what he should say. As for whether to listen or not, it was Li Qian's business. He followed Li Qian's words and changed the topic: "The Seventeenth Man is willing to sell us the piece of land they have, but the condition is that we have to buy him a piece of land of the same size. Mr. Liu and I discussed it and planned to buy all the land east of the village and then re-divided it according to the needs of each family. In this way, we can gather all the sacrifice fields together, and the people in the village will not stand up and are reluctant to sell the fields to us."
This time they returned to their hometown to worship their ancestors and gave Jiang Xian a family tree. It was a family matter. Gao Fuyu was in poor health, so he stayed in Taiyuan. Li Changqing brought another aide, Liu Li, who was beside him, over, and Gao Miaorong was also sent back to Taiyuan by Li Tai to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival with Gao's uncle and nephew.
Li Qian was very satisfied and nodded slightly.
Li Lin frowned almost invisibly.
Although the eldest wife is not talented, he is Li Qian's brother. In the past two days, Li Qian has spoken to him more and more casually, especially after he married Princess Jianan...
In the main room, Jiang Xian had already got up, and the maid served Jiang Xian dressed and used breakfast. He was talking to Li Ji who came to see her: "... Have you stripped all the window papers in their house?"
"Yes!" Li Ji said, his eyes were lively and his spirits were flying. He couldn't say anything about comfort, "I didn't plan to do this either. Who knew that when my sister's mother-in-law saw that we were going to move away my sister's dowry furniture, she sat on the ground, patted her thigh and cried, and said that my sister was a mourning star. If it weren't for my sister, my brother-in-law wouldn't have died. My sister was like this, and she was retribution. This attracted everyone in the village to watch. I was so angry that I asked someone to pull down the window of the room where my sister lived, saying that the window grille on it was wrinkled by my sister and now I'm going to take it away."
"What happened later?" Jiang Xian asked excitedly.
