A Timely Wife

One month later, the competition was settled in this way. Zhou Huyuan actually called Li Ruosong's two entourages over. Every day, they followed the two brothers to squat, practice riding and shooting, boxing and sword training. The two entourages They are also very serious. After the class of the day is over, the two of them will practice repeatedly when they return to their courtyard. Of course, these are things for later.

Living in the village is relatively warm and peaceful. Chengdong wakes up every morning, and after freshening up, he follows Li Ruosong to the main room to greet Li Qi and Li Liang. He has breakfast and drinks with the four elders. Tea, chat, and then take Li Ruoshan to read and practice calligraphy in the book. When it is lunch time, I go to the dining hall to have lunch with the four elders. Practice martial arts.

The elders did not want to be accompanied by Li Ruosong and Chengdong for dinner. They ate very light dinner, knowing that they could not eat together with Li Ruosong and Li Ruoshan, so they often ate dinner separately.After dinner, they would either test their homework, or go for a walk in the village as a family.

Originally, Li Qi wanted to hand over the housekeeping power to Cheng Dong, but after hearing Cheng Dong's words that day, Li Qi changed his mind and decided to let Cheng Dong teach Li Ruoshan with Li Ruosong, and take Li Ruoshan with him by the way. Ruo Song, as for the stewardship, Li Qi, the steward of the outer court, handed it over to Li Liang, and the Li Wu family of the inner court did not hold it in his hands, but handed it over to Li Chen's hands readily.

Li Liang and Li Chen's couple were a little panicked at first, and they were in a hurry and didn't know how to take over. After Li Qi and Li Wu's advice a few times, the couple were able to take over the housekeeping.

The current family property of the Li family is not considered large, with a total of only ten mu of fertile land, all rented out, five shops, Liu Cheng went back to take care of the five shops in the capital, and the management of the Songjiang mansion was handed over to Manager Li's nephew. The new shop on the Internet is directly under the management of Li Guanshi, and there are not many things that Li Liang really needs to do. Li Liang has also taken care of the shop himself, so he can get started relatively quickly.

There are relatively more things on Li Chen's side, but it is not difficult. After all, there are not many people in the house now, and there are basically nothing to buy, and they are all old servants for many years. In addition, Steward Zhang is a very shrewd and capable person. Housekeeper Zhang can handle all matters big and small, so in fact, Mrs. Li and Chen just arrange meals, calculate the monthly payment, and then take care of the warehouse.

Since the head of the Li family came over last time, Li Qi's family has lived a happy life for a few days, but some people just can't see them living comfortably.

This morning, Chengdong and Li Ruosong did something indescribable the night before, and they were too lazy to wake up. Li Ruosong had already washed up and was trying to persuade Chengdong to sleep more, so he didn’t have to follow him to greet the elders. The couple were still talking, when they heard a burst of gongs and drums outside the gate.

Chengdong didn't sleep well at first, but when he heard the noise, his temper suddenly turned up, he jumped up from the bed without saying a word, rolled up his sleeves and was ready to rush out, Li Ruosong was also very annoyed, early in the morning, Who is this messing around outside, but when he saw that Chengdong was going to play outside in obscene clothes and trousers, Li Ruosong's face changed in fright, and he hugged Chengdong's waist, coaxing and persuading him To appease Cheng Dong.

When the husband and wife changed their clothes and rushed to the front yard, Li Qi and Li Liang had already arrived, as well as Zhang Steward, Zhou Nuyuan and Li Guanshi. Li Ruosong looked at each other and didn't ask anything, but asked where Li Ruoshan was.

After Li Ruosong asked, several elders realized that Li Ruoshan was not here. Li Ruoshan was probably woken up by such a big commotion. He hurriedly asked Zhou Nuyuan to take a look, guessing that the child was losing his temper now, and Nanny He didn't know if she could calm Li Ruoshan down by herself.

Zhou Nuyuan nodded with several other people as a greeting, and then walked towards the middle courtyard. Li Ruoshan now lives in the same courtyard as Li Ruosong and his wife, in the west wing, and the east wing is empty. , ready to leave Chengdong and Li Ruosong's eldest son to live.

After Zhou Nuyuan left, before Li Ruosong asked, Li Qi said, "Uncle Li Qi and Auntie are holding a few spirit tablets at the door and crying for funerals. How do you think this matter should be resolved?"

Upon hearing that it was Li Qi's uncle and uncle, Li Ruosong and Cheng Dong exchanged glances. Li Ruosong thought for a while and said, "I wonder if the patriarch is at the door?"

Li Qi gave him an appreciative look and said, "Not here."

Li Ruosong pondered for a while, and said, "Sun'er thinks that this matter should be handled by the patriarch."

Li Qi shook his head and said: "They made such a big commotion that they didn't bring the patriarch over here. There are two possibilities. Either the patriarch knew in advance and approved of their behavior, or the patriarch was unwilling to come here for fear of causing trouble. He wants us to resolve this matter by ourselves, or in other words, he is unwilling to get involved in this matter because he has no ability to calm this matter down."

Li Ruosong thought for a while and said, "Since that's the case, why don't we find some clan elders, especially those who have opinions about their family."

Li Qi still shook his head, "No way, even the patriarch doesn't come forward, how can the elders of the clan come forward, these people are old and mature, I am afraid that I will be late for things that are beneficial, and I can't wait to hide as far as possible for things that offend others How far, if they know how to escape from the ground, these old bastards can hide hundreds of thousands of miles away, so these people can't be counted on."

Li Ruosong was silent for a while when Li Qi was about to say something, Li Ruosong said suddenly: "Grandfather, just now you said that they came here with the spirit seat?"

Li Qi nodded with a smile in his eyes, and said, "That's right, they did come here with their spiritual seats."

Li Ruosong breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "In that case, let's go out with the spiritual seat."

"Yes, I also think the same way. They can be shameless, but we can't. Since they are going to use filial piety to put pressure on us, let's pay back with filial piety^" After Li Qi finished speaking, he gave Manager Li a wink.

Li Guanshi then turned around and walked towards the inner courtyard. Not long after, Li Guanshi came back holding two memorial tablets. It was made overnight, and it was specially made old, just to prepare for the arrival of this day.

According to the degree of greed of Uncle Li Qi and Uncle Niang, if they can't take a bite of such a big piece of fat in their big family, they may not be able to sleep well. The patriarch can suppress them for a day, but he can't After all, they have lived here for decades, and if they don't look at the monk's face or the Buddha's face, even if the patriarch is tempted by the school, he will not really drive them out of the village because of this, let alone , who knows what they discussed behind their backs.

Li Qi expected it well. The reason why the patriarch of the Li clan acquiesced to the actions of Uncle Li Qi and Auntie Li was really because these two people made some promises to the patriarch. Uncle Li Qi and Auntie returned home in despair that day. The dilapidated courtyard and the almost bottomless silver, and then thinking about the large courtyard where Li Qi's family entered three times, the brand new gowns, and the servants in front and back, the more I think about it, the more unwilling I am.

But thinking about the warning from the patriarch of the Li clan, even if they are not reconciled, and want to keep these things for themselves, the couple still have to think more about it. The whole family has been thinking about it for two or three days, and it is still Li. Uncle Qi's eldest son had a lot of crooked thoughts, and he also had a flash of inspiration, thinking that since Li Qi could use the things in the school to make the patriarch suppress them, then they could definitely lure the patriarch in the same way.

Uncle Li Qi's eldest son thought of this, and immediately went to discuss this matter with Uncle Li Qi and his aunt. Uncle Li Qi and his aunt felt that what the eldest son said was very reasonable, so they called the whole family to discuss this matter.

The whole family chattered all night, and finally decided that after they seized Li Qi's family property, the school would follow suit, and they would come out of the venue and banker to invite the teacher. Shu Xiu could set a very low price, so that the village All the children of the patriarch's family can come to study. Of course, the children of the patriarch's family can not do any training, which can be regarded as special treatment for the patriarch alone.

In addition, Li Qi's family's ten acres of land can give three acres of good land to the patriarch. They own seven acres of land. It can also take a lot of benefits, no matter how it is calculated, it is worthwhile.

That night, Uncle Li Qi and Uncle Li went to the patriarch. They were very smart and didn't tell the patriarch directly. Instead, they found the patriarch's daughter-in-law first. They all had to carry something there, otherwise the patriarch's daughter-in-law would speak ill of the family for a long time in the village, and she would be procrastinating when doing things.

After a long time, everyone also consciously brought things to her. After hearing what Aunt Li Qi told Aunt Li Qi, the patriarch's wife assured Aunt Li Qi that it would be no problem to leave it to her. She waited outside first, and went to talk to the patriarch about it first.

Aunt Li Qi got the promise from the patriarch's wife, she was so happy, she told Uncle Li Qi what Aunt Li Qi said just now when she went out, and Uncle Li Qi said several times that it's great, it's great, stand in the original place They circled the ground a few times, rubbing their hands and stomping their feet, waiting for the patriarch's wife to bring them good news.
