The conversation was divided into two parts, Li Youxin returned to his hometown in Suzhou, and closed the door with his father to discuss it that day.

After Li Tai Anzu passed the entrance examination, each of the Li family started to strive for success. There are many people who study, but few people who are promising. To put it bluntly, it has nothing to do with their own environment. There is no high starting point. After studying for a lifetime, how many people can really leap into the dragon's gate.

Faced with these two letters of recommendation, the current patriarch of the Li family couldn't help but be moved. What their Li family lacks is opportunity.As long as there is a good study environment, there is no need to worry about not being able to cultivate talented children.Both Guozijian and Mingwei Academy have prominent connections. Only when the interpersonal relationship is strong, can the official career go further.

Single-handedly taking the imperial examination, how many people won the Jinshi, but they can only stay in the ninth-rank official position for the rest of their lives. Although Li Yaonan's move is only an exchange of benefits, it is a timely rain for them. If his son can enter the Imperial College, I hope he will do well Teacher seat, next year's imperial examination, title on the gold list...

As long as Li Jingxiang thinks about it like this, his heart will be excited!

only……

After all, Li Tai'an is an official, although there is no hope of promotion, but the Li family is quite famous in Yangzhou, how could he easily agree to adopt his son.

"Father, there is no need to worry. We just need to make an excuse. Yao Nan will find a way to get Master Li to agree." Li Youxin understood his father's concerns. Although he didn't know what Li Yaonan could do, it didn't hinder him. Understand, Li Yaonan's determination to adopt is imperative.

"Okay, since that's the case, let's pass a message to Yangzhou first, so that Tai'an can at least be mentally prepared. After Mrs. Li's fiftieth birthday, we will formally propose adoption. With this time as a buffer, whether it is successful or not depends on it." Does Li Yaonan's method work?"

The father and son decided on this, and discussed for a while about the successor. The patriarch of the Li clan hurried out and didn't come back until evening.

Early the next morning, something serious happened in Li's village.

The fourth uncle was distraught, and made a fool of himself at the door of the patriarch's house, crying that his poor nephew left early, and there was not even a single person who threw a basin, and no one offered incense after his death. Pity his nephew for being such a good child , good at reading, good at learning, but it's a pity that the health is not good, otherwise there will be another Jinshi in Lijiazhuang. Last night I dreamed of his nephew, who was alone down there, so desolate.

The fourth uncle was arrogant and unreasonable. He insisted on asking the patriarch to choose a child for his nephew to adopt, otherwise he would hang himself on a big tree at the entrance of Lijiazhuang.

Who in Lijiazhuang doesn't know that the fourth uncle is a muddleheaded man, whoever sees him won't shy away, his nephew, who has been dead for more than 20 years, will adopt the child to him only if his head is flooded. What's more, it's a dead person. The property belonging to his nephew has been divided up for a long time. Now he wants money but no money, land but no land, and house but no house.

The patriarch has a problem. Let’s talk about adoption. There are so many children in the clan. It’s not difficult to choose one, but the difficulty is that the fourth uncle said that his nephew is good at learning, so he insisted on picking a child who can read and let his nephew adopt him. I feel at ease in the ground.

I bother!Whose family's child who can read is not regarded as a treasure by the elders, but also adopted, and the fourth uncle thinks beautifully, dreaming!

The matter was at a stalemate, and the fourth uncle was crying because the listener was sad and smelled the tears, and the white silk in his hand would be shaken from time to time, yelling that he was dead, making the patriarch look sad, and his hair seemed to be turning gray Gen, Fourth Uncle is an elder after all, if he really has some good and two bad...

The adults in Lijiazhuang hurriedly hid their children who could read, for fear of being spotted by the fourth uncle.

Three days later, I don't know who reminded me. Li Yaonan's name appeared in the ears of everyone. In order not to let their own treasure suffer, the people of Lijiazhuang were united. Their eyes lit up, they could read, and they were knowledgeable. Li Yaonan was a ready-made candidate. ?

As a result, the patriarch was forced to do nothing. Under the unanimous request of everyone, he had to write a letter to Yangzhou. This can be regarded as putting pressure on Li Tai'an. He can only do this when he helps Li Yaonan. The next step is still up to Li Tai'an. He decided that if he didn't want to, even if he was the patriarch of the Li clan, he couldn't force it.

But here in Yangzhou, the old lady's fiftieth birthday, Ma Yulian was troubled, birthday banquets, banquets, congratulatory gifts, all the things needed for the birthday, which one does not require money, none of which is worth eight thousand, the old lady must be dissatisfied.

As the old lady's niece, she understands the old lady's heart best. The old lady is stingy and likes to be extravagant. She is quite old and still holds on to her private house, and many properties in the business have not been handed over to her. In fact, he is really an immortal thing, only one son is still on the defensive, sticking to the money and taking it to the coffin.

Ma Yulian is full of complaints, but there is nothing she can do. In this mansion, she still has a lot of places to rely on the old lady, and she can only bear with everything, but when she thinks of her birthday and the money flowing out, she feels distressed. Without getting married, Yao Zong also wants to talk about marriage, one after another, which one doesn't need a lot of money.

Ma Yulian thought about it, fixed her eyes on Lin Yixuan, knowing that these two couples are tough, but if the word "filial piety" is pressed, they dare not obey?

On the same day, Ma Yulian heard from Lin Yixuan, and said in a pleasant manner: "The eldest daughter-in-law of the second family is in Beijing. I can only rely on you in this house. I am old, and the housekeeper can't do what I want. The old lady's fiftieth birthday , you should use more snacks, I will leave the power in the Fuzhong to you."

Lin Yixuan was vigilant, and declined politely: "Yixuan just came to Li Mansion, and he is not familiar with certain things, please forgive me, Madam, it is really difficult for Yixuan to take on such a heavy responsibility."

Ma Yulian chuckled lightly: "Look at what you said, I also came from my daughter-in-law, and I will learn it slowly. You came from a wealthy family in Beijing. Can I still not trust you?"

"This……"

Lin Yixuan rejected it several times, but Ma Yulian insisted. As the husband of the Li family, the wife gave the housekeeper the power because he valued it. If he didn't know how to flatter him, he would be unfilial. Lin Yixuan had no choice but to accept this drudgery. .

Ma Yulian made good calculations, the power was indeed delegated, but the key to the warehouse was not handed over, and the accountant couldn't pay the money. If Lin Yixuan wanted to organize a good birthday banquet, he had to pay for it himself. He really did everything he could.

Li Yaonan was filled with anger when he heard the news, and before he could think of a countermeasure, he saw his husband making a bold move.

Lin Yixuan's solution is very simple, credit. Since Ma Yulian is uneasy and kind, don't blame him for being rude.

Generally, if a big family buys something that is not paid by the accountant, he just needs to tell the shop and ask them to come to Li Mansion to pay the money at the end of the month. The birthday banquet can be held beautifully, and Ma Yulian can't make mistakes. Can you yell loudly that her idea of ​​taking the dowry of your daughter-in-law is not good?

As for the warehouse, it is even simpler. For the sake of face and to show her virtuousness, Ma Yulian will definitely not publicize her thoughts. She did not give Lin Yixuan the key to the warehouse, and only her confidant mother knows. Leave that person, and then block the news, when other people see him go to the warehouse, they will only take it as Madam's order, and will not feel that there is anything wrong.

Even if the news can only be blocked for one day, it is enough for Lin Yixuan.

Half of the good things in the warehouse were moved, and they were all used for the old lady's birthday banquet.

Ma Yulian was kept in the dark, seeing that Lin Yixuan was doing things seriously, and the merchants delivered truckloads of goods to the house, she was very happy in her heart, and her attitude towards Lin Yixuan became contemptuous, hum, small sample, and even fought with her, as long as she As a small plan, Lin Yixuan obediently took out the dowry to make up for it.

Therefore, after Ma Yulian received the letter from Suzhou, she just glanced at it casually and threw it aside. With Lin Yixuan as a golden mountain, how could she allow Li Yaonan to adopt him? The most promising one in the Li family is the master's branch.

It's a pity that within two days of Ma Yulian's happiness, from the chatting of the maids, a thunderbolt came down from the blue sky, and she was immediately dizzy with anger, and a mouthful of old blood blocked her throat.

At this time, she still didn't know that Lin Yixuan didn't even pay a penny for shopping. She only heard the servant girl say that Lin Yixuan went to the warehouse yesterday. Double-sided embroidery, this is the dowry she prepared for her daughter...

How could Lin Yixuan go to the warehouse, who gave him the right to take things in the warehouse!

Ma Yulian was trembling with anger, her complexion was frighteningly gloomy, her eyes were sharp like knives, and Lin Yixuan was immediately heard.

Lin Yixuan looked innocent, didn't the rights be given by his wife?You asked me to hold a birthday banquet, and it is only natural to go to the warehouse. Don't you want to honor the old lady and give her a decent fiftieth birthday?

A big hat is pressed down, what can Ma Yulian say, if eyes can kill, at this time Lin Yixuan's body is probably already broken into thousands of pieces.

Ma Yulian was extremely helpless, so she had to change the subject and asked Lin Yixuan why she took down her confidant nanny.

Lin Yixuan was very calm, and he kindly persuaded Ma Yulian that this nanny was not a thing, and she even lost all the keys to the master's storehouse. It is not easy to beat her for [-] years. In order not to let the madam worry, he just kept the matter a secret. When he got down, he lost all the keys to the warehouse, and the warehouse was definitely not safe, so he made the decision and simply smashed the door of the warehouse. If the wife wanted to punish him, he would have nothing to say, but he firmly did not think he was wrong.

Ma Yulian became ill that day, he wanted to punish Lin Yixuan, pointed at his nose and scolded him for being unfilial, wanted to peel off his skin, tear his bones apart, but she couldn't, after what Lin Yixuan said, not only did he not do anything wrong, but he also had merit Well, the old lady's birthday banquet was really decent, and it made her feel like a knife was piercing her heart, bleeding profusely.

Li Yaonan witnessed this house fight with his own eyes, and was stunned. He only felt that his husband was so mighty, which made his heart itch.

Lin Yixuan has already done a lot of work, and Li Yaonan is naturally not far behind. The way he wants to adopt is straightforward, that is to make trouble, the trouble makes Li's family restless, and the house is restless. Adopt him out.

Three days before the old lady's fiftieth birthday, Li Yaozong came back from school, Li Yaonan sneered, his brother's newly-weds had no time, and the old lady rushed back as soon as her birthday passed, whether Li Yaozong should be too obvious.

The older brother taught the younger brother a lesson, Li Yaozong has always been displeased with Li Yaonan, finding trouble is a common thing, knowing that his mother was stunned by Lin Yixuan, Li Yaozong blocked Li Yaonan's way, condescending and insulting him as usual, but he did not expect that Li Yaonan would not be him for a long time The person I used to know.

What Li Yaonan was waiting for was this opportunity. He had been exercising his body for half a month. He wanted to try his skills a long time ago. It seemed that he couldn't believe that this usually timid elder brother dared to do anything to him.

Hitting the heart of the Li family, this time the matter became serious, but Li Yaozong spoke disrespect first, the elder brother taught the younger brother, no one can say that Li Yaonan is wrong, they can only blame him for being too harsh.

In the end, although Li Yaonan was punished by Li Tai'an to go to the ancestral hall, Li Yaozong did not please him. Li Yaonan's actions were ruthless, and Li Yaozong lay down for two days before getting out of bed.

The old lady and Ma Yulian were so distressed that they wiped away their tears, and felt uneasy. If such a stupid person was left at home, what would they do if their best hearts suffered again?

At that time, they hadn't thought about adopting. After all, adopting is usually done by families with no heirs or poor families.

The letter from the patriarch was to adopt Li Yaonan to a dead man. The Li family is a big family in Yangzhou, so how could they afford to lose this man.

If you can't adopt, then separate the family, Ma Yulian thought in her heart, she might as well separate these two unsightly guys, as long as she still occupies the position of elder, it will be a long time to deal with them. Can't swallow this breath.

But before she could make up her mind, a nail came over to pass on the message that Li Yaonan and his new husband were looking forward to the separation of the family. Since ancient times, when the family was separated, the legitimate son accounted for [-]% of the family property, the concubine [-]%, and the Li family There is no concubine, but Li Yaonan, as the first concubine, can get [-]% of the family property.

Ma Yulian was very depressed, let alone [-]%, she didn't want to take advantage of Li Yaonan.

It's just that if you don't want to separate the family, you can only adopt. Thinking of adopting, Ma Yulian took out the letter written by the patriarch and read it carefully. The blessings of the Li Mansion are only so-called from time to time. To put it another way, the Li family is kind-hearted and generous. Adoption out, there is no shame or shame.

Ma Yulian and Li Tai'an blew the pillow wind that night.

After the two of them made up their minds and then discussed with the old lady, the matter of Li Yaonan's adoption was finalized.

For adoption, first of all, I have to go to my hometown to get the genealogy. When these two little bastards come back after finishing the genealogy, they are no longer from the Li family. They still want to enter the door of the Li family and take things from the Li family.Withholding Lin Yixuan's dowry seemed to be a matter of course.

This plan is very good!

The three masters of Li Mansion kept their expressions on their faces, just waiting for the arrival of the old family members.

On the day of the old lady's birthday, the Li residence was full of guests. Although she was dissatisfied with Lin Yixuan's use of the warehouse, the old lady had to praise that this was the biggest birthday party she had ever had in her life.

Nonsense, can it be bad?Leaving aside Lin Yixuan's credit, he got 5 taels on credit. There are so many good things in the warehouse, and the specifications are also held according to the birthday banquet of the elders of the Hou Mansion. Looking forward, I really want to see the faces of the Li family when those merchants come to ask for the bill.

However, maybe at that time he had already left the Li Mansion, so he could not see this wonderful scene. With the convenience of the housekeeper, it would be easier for him to change the dowry and leave the mansion. I'm afraid it will take some time for the Li family to find out that Lin Yixuan has really cheated the Li family this time.

Li Yaonan was in a very good mood, and felt that this buddy from the Lin family was really bad, but he liked it.
