It was dusk when I returned to Li’s Mansion from the banks of Taohua Creek.

The East Courtyard is peaceful.

My mother was sitting in the yard with her soles around the floral apron, while my sister was cleaning the yard.

Seeing Li Chenan come back, Ding Xiaoe put down the needle and thread in her hand and waved to him. Her face was no longer as happy as before, but instead she was filled with deep worries.

Li Chenan sat opposite his mother.

Ding Xiao'e's eyes fell on his face and asked, "You... have you really become a helm leader of the Yulong Society?"

"Yes." Li Chenan nodded.

"Your father can't sleep at night these days!"

"It's because of my helm leader?"

"Of course!" Ding Xiao'e put the sewing basket on the table and said earnestly: "Although I am a woman, I also know what a fish and dragon will be!"

"You! Although our Guangling Li family has declined over the years, it is a scholarly family no matter what!"

"You martial arts master do not object, you do business, and you don't object. But my son! How can you join the crowd of the Yulong Society?"

"Isn't this a sacrificing myself? How can the neighbors go to our Li family?"

"Your sister is exaggerating you, saying that it is because the Huo family will take revenge on you, and you joined the Yulong Society for self-protection... Son! Being a person should have a bottom line! My mother always thinks that it's nothing to do with a smaller business, so we

Just ask for peace and safety.”

"Isn't that tavern in Erjinggou Alley good? So what if you have to make so much money?"

"In this life, people cannot bring anything to this world when they are born, and they cannot take anything away when they are gone!"

"So what will be left behind when a person walks in the world in his life?"

"My mother thinks it's not a wealthy family, but a reputation!"

"If a person has a bad reputation, he will be spitted by the world and will be stabbed by others!"

Li Chenan really didn't expect that his mother would teach him a lesson when he came back, and this lesson was actually very reasonable.

But he couldn't argue with his mother about this, because he had found that he was getting further and further away from the ideal he had when he first came to this world.

It seemed as if an invisible hand was pushing him.

From seeing that handsome father-in-law, to now, the strong sense of crisis arises after understanding the situation in Ningguo, he cannot sit still and must fight!

It’s not for fame and fortune, but for this family, and for the purpose of finding a foundation for a stable life in the most likely chaotic times in the future.

"The baby knows what my mother said."

"Since you know, then resign from the position of the leader of the Yulong Society!"

"Mom... you should know the child. She can't explain too much to her. She just wants to say that the lintel of the Li family is indeed a little dim, and she will wipe the lintel brighter."

Ding Xiaoe obviously couldn't understand. She only knew that when she went out these days, her neighbors had obvious differences in her eyes.

They are no longer as friendly as before, and they always seek various excuses to get farther away from her.

Of course she knew why, so she became even more worried.

"Son, the lintel of the Li Mansion is enchanted by the inscriptions of the incense of the Li Mansion's books! Instead of the rendering of dirty blood, it is not a threat of a bad reputation!"

"That would only make everyone despise, and it would only make the lintel darker!"

Li Chenan was speechless.

He pondered for a long time before saying something to Ding Xiaoe: "Mom, I will go to Kyoto in a few days... In addition,"

Just then, footsteps came from the corridor.

A little anxious, Li Chenan turned his head and saw his father Li Wenhan walking in in a breeze.

Li Wenhan's face was very dark.

He came to the yard, sat at the table, picked up the teapot and took a big sip, and took Li Chenan, but did not blame him, but sighed casually and said, "Your second uncle has replied."

"What did you say?"

Li Wenhan was silent. After a moment, "It's not a good thing."

"In reason, did he also know that I became the helm leader of the Yulong Society?"

Li Wenhan nodded, "Obviously someone in Kyoto released this news. Your second uncle said...it was said that this was the shame of the Li family, and he should drive you out of the house!"

Li Chenan was stunned. Li Wenhou was quite cruel. However, if he left the Li family, he would be able to preserve the reputation of the Li family. After all, many things he did in the future were really a big evil.

.

So his mouth curled up, "I think this proposal is good."

Li Wenhan waved his hand: "Don't go to your heart!"

"The Li family's big house and second house are in Kyoto now, and our Li family's third house is in Guangling. In fact... we are also alienated from each other, so we don't have to care about his method!"

Li Wenhan's words made Li Chenan stunned for a moment. In my memory, this father valued the reputation and the reputation of outsiders the most.

The last time I was kicked out of the house, it was because my predecessor violated the family precepts and went to the gambling house and owed a lot of debts, and then the Shen family was humiliated to break the engagement.

This time he became the notorious leader of the Yulong Association, and the impact on the Li family's reputation must have been even worse.

He thought his father would drive him out of the house again with this letter, and he could even accept it calmly, but unexpectedly his father did not do so.

"I have been thinking about you these days. I couldn't figure it out. Yesterday I brought up a jar of peach blossom wine and went to Qianmo Academy. I wanted to have two drinks with Zhang Zheng, but I didn't expect that Zhang Pingju of Xuezheng

Lord Zhang is here too.”

"The three of us were drinking at the Zuixin Pavilion and raised our father's doubts about you."

"Mr. Zhang said something and made me suddenly enlightened."

Li Chenan asked curiously: "What did Lord Zhang say?"

"He said that the so-called instruments are used as objects, objects, and all the objects used by people are instruments."

"If a tool is in a person, it is capacity, mind, time, role, etc., and the behavior of a person is called a tool."

"Water pouring wine is the fragrance of wine, and pouring tea is the fragrance of tea. The utensil has no fragrance, and the fragrance comes from external things. People have good and evil, and they all come from their hearts. Therefore... the utensil is not important but the object is important.

Position is not important, but the heart of the people is important!”

Li Wenhan looked at Li Chenan with a firm vision, "As my father, I think that the instrument of the fish and dragon club is not important. My son stands in it, his heart is inherently good, and he is not affected by the instrument, and he has his own beauty. This is the most important thing!"

"So, go your own way, measure it with your heart, and be ashamed of your heart, that's enough. As for the others... let others talk about it!"

Li Chenan suddenly became admirable to his father.

Ding Xiaoe seemed to be still savoring the meaning of this sentence. She was a little confused and suddenly felt a little unfamiliar, but very relieved.

She was worried.

Therefore, I felt sincere to my son.

What I was worried about was that my husband drove his son out again.

Now my concern is unnecessary. Of course, it would be better if my son could escape from the idiot.

"Xiao E, go and get a few side dishes to accompany you, and have two drinks for your husband and Chen'an!"
