Pampered and fierce wife: Reborn daughter-in-law has a strategy

"It's all my fault for my incompetence." The old man stroked his beard and said with emotion, "There are endless changes in the way of Gu. There is a saying: 'The expert is watching the door, the layman is watching the fun.' This layman, this old man, can only help the emperor and grandson to suppress it. If this Gu is solved directly, it cannot be done."

"Mr. Meng, there is no need to blame yourself. This kid is destined to have this fate," Xiao Yinchu smiled, "It's just that the matter is important, sir, please remember to keep it secret."

Doctor Meng nodded: "I know."

Li Xinran thought about it in the study for a long time without any clue. Looking at the perfect weather outside, she planned to go for a walk in the back garden.

The sunshine was just right, and although there were dead branches and leaves, the day was still very blue. Li Xinran walked in the garden, breathing in the cool air, and the irritability in his heart gradually relaxed.

After turning the corner, an old man appeared in Li Xinran's sight.

The old man was squatting beside the flowers and mumbling, not knowing what he was talking about. Li Xinran looked at the old man curiously and walked over:

"Who are you?" Li Xinran asked, "Why haven't I seen you?"

But the old man paid no attention to it, just squatting there and digging in the soil, mumbling.Li Xinran looked at it for a while, thinking that it might have been brought back by his father and brother, a lonely old man who died in the soldier's family, so he rolled up his sleeves and squatted next to him: "Old man, if you need anything, let me help you dig it out. "

Then the old man looked at her and said: "I want an earth dragon, about eight inches and eight inches long. Don't be too long, don't be too short, and have a red circle in the middle of the body."

Li Xinran listened to the old man's many requests, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said with a smile: "Okay, then I will look for it."

Taking the small shovel from the old man's hand, Li Xinran asked while digging: "Old man, what do you want Earth Dragon to do?"

The old man may have seen someone digging for him, and he was enjoying his leisure time. He squatted aside with his hands folded and happily said: "Dry it and make medicinal materials. Earthworm is a good thing. It activates blood circulation and unblocks meridians. Hey! You have to dig deep. If you tap the potential, you won't be able to find it." As he said this, he did not forget to instruct Li Xinran to dig.

"Hey, no, no, dig over here!"

"That one, pick that one up and look at it!"

"No, no, that's not it."

……

After half a day, Li Xinran took a rest and was very tired.

"Old Li, Mr. Li!" A call came from afar, and a young boy from the Li Mansion ran over, "Oh, Mr. Li, why are you here? If you have something to do, why don't you tell me to do it?" .”

As he was talking, the young man saw Li Xinran beside him and was so frightened that he immediately knelt down: "Miss, please say hello to the eldest lady."

"It doesn't matter," Li Xinran waved his hand, "Who is this uncle?"

The uncle took the earth dragon that Li Xinran finally dug up and looked at it. If he liked it, he would put it in a small jar he carried with him. If he didn't like it, he would throw it away and ignore anyone.

The young man glanced at the uncle and felt helpless: "Miss, Uncle Zhong has invited Mr. Li back. He said he was a distinguished guest and asked me to take care of Mr. Li." After saying that, he tugged Mr. Li again and said, "Old Li, please come back." Please give your regards to the eldest lady."

"It's okay." After hearing what the young man said, Li Xinran smiled, waved his hand, then leaned over and asked, "Mr. Li, are you happy living in your house these days?"

Only then did Mr. Li raise his eyes and glance at Li Xinran, and said, "You are not as unruly as they say."

Li Xinran raised her eyebrows high, turned to look at the stunned and pale boy, smiled slightly, and continued to ask Mr. Li gently: "Me? Unruly? Who can say?"

Mr. Li turned to look at the young man with an innocent face and pointed his finger: "He also has a maid. It is said that he lives in your room. They are a couple. The maid always comes to him to cry and complain about you. Bully her, go to any brother if anything happens, she can't even get into your room without her, and even punished her for a trivial matter last time, this guy said in my ears that you are unruly and willful, and you are not a woman. He hangs out among men every day and has no sense of shame."

"Plop!" Before Li Xinran said anything, the young man knelt down first. He didn't expect that this person who usually kept silent and basically didn't talk would actually give him a knife at this time: "Eldest, eldest lady , It’s not a villain, it’s not... the villain’s wish! Yes, it’s this old man, he’s a madman, he makes weird things everywhere every day, he’s a madman! The villain is wronged!”

After listening to his explanation, Li Xinran turned to look at the old man to see if he had anything else to say. Unexpectedly, the old man was still lowering his head and playing with his earth dragon, as if the person who complained just now was not him.

Li Xinran smiled softly, looked at the boy and said, "What's your name?"

The boy's face was pale and he was stammering. He couldn't speak clearly. Li Xinran sneered: "Come here!"

The guard came after the order, and he put his posture up. Li Xinran pointed at the boy and said: "Ask him who sent him, the method is arbitrary."

After saying that, he was about to leave with Mr. Li when he suddenly thought of something: "Oh, by the way, check out his lover. I don't care about consensual relationships, but using this excuse to cause trouble makes me very unhappy."

The guard followed the order and left. Li Xinran asked gently: "Mr. Li, where do you live? I'll take you back. That guy is not a good person. I'll give you another person to serve you, okay?"

Mr. Li looked up at her, nodded, and pointed in the direction, but it was right next to Li Huanqing's residence. Li Xinran looked at that direction, her eyes suddenly became a little sad. She didn't know who this old man was, but looking at him Where he lives, maybe he is an old man in Uncle Liao's family...

"Let's go, Mr. Li." Li Xinran's tone became gentler. The gentle Mr. Li raised his head from his own world and glanced at her in surprise, as if he could feel that she had become more gentle inexplicably.

But he didn't ask anything, just followed Li Xinran's strength and walked forward with her.

Mr. Li's yard is not small and relatively neat. There are several boys working in the yard. What makes Li Xinran strange is that the yard is decorated like a medicine shop. There are several drying racks in the yard. On those drying racks They are all medicinal materials, and you can smell the strong aroma of herbs as soon as you enter the yard.

"Miss." One of the busy boys saw Li Xinran and stepped forward to salute. Then he saw Mr. Li standing aside. There was a trace of confusion on his face, but he didn't ask any more questions. He just saluted respectfully: "Mr. Li is back." He said, taking the jar from Mr. Li's hand with familiarity.

Mr. Li, who had been silent and holding the jar firmly in his hand, actually handed it over obediently.

"Wait a minute," Li Xinran stopped the boy. After seeing the unhappy look on Mr. Li's face, Li Xinran changed her tune, "Come over after you put the jars away. I have something to ask you."

"Yes." The boy responded respectfully, hugged the jar and left.
