Chapter 16 The Life of Kneeling on the Washboard Every Day (Today
"It's because Li Xuanba has always been slutty, but he often dealt with the third lady, so..." The girl whispered in a low voice. "Li Xuanba is in the Li Mansion, not afraid of his father or brother. The only thing she is afraid of is Mrs. Li and Mrs. Li San."
Although the girl is still young, it does not hinder her nature as a woman: gossip. Therefore, listening to the girl telling some of the people in the Duke of Tang’s mansion like a bamboo tube, I couldn’t help but dance and smash my tongue.
Li Yuan, the famous Duke of Tang, was vaguely afraid of internal affairs, so that most of the affairs in his family were dominated by Mrs. Li, Dou. Because Duke of Tang was an official outside a few years ago, the educational burden of Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin fell on Mrs. Li's shoulders.
There is an old saying that a strict father and a kind mother is the opposite, but in the Duke of Tang, the family is the opposite. A kind father and a strict mother. When these brothers meet their mothers, they are like rats meeting cats.
As for Lady Li San, she was the only daughter of the four children born by Lady Li. In addition, Lady Li San looked like her mother, and even her character was almost the same. She was very favored by Li Yuan. Lady Li might have too many sons, and her daughter looked very much like her in the past, so she was quite close to her daughter.
So Li San's wife was almost in the Li Mansion and wanted to get the wind and rain. So Li Yuan finally got this red-hoofed pussy, but his sons were all jealous, but they couldn't get it.
But Lady Li San dug up her. Although she made a bet with her father Li Yuan, I believe that Li Yuan had used archery skills to show others twenty years ago and married Dou as his wife. Now he is in his prime and has been a job for many years. Even if he is not diligent in archery skills, how can he not compare to his thirteen-year-old daughter?
It can only be said that it was intentional to give in so that the daughter could be satisfied, and the sons could only feel disappointed, but they could not complain that as a father, he was too fond of his daughter.
Just as this young master kept thinking about the relationship between the father and son of the Li family, brother and sister, mother and son, mother and daughter,
Taking advantage of the moment when the Li brother and sister were talking, the girl leaned closer and asked in a low voice: "Brother, what's the matter with whom I'm looking for you just now?"
"Haha, what else can I do? I just think I have bullied her brother for me and come to find fault." I smiled and replied softly.
"Really?" The girl couldn't help but widen her eyes. "Brother, didn't you explain to her?"
"Some things are useless to explain." I smiled at the girl. "Good girl, don't worry. You won't forget what my mother said that night, right?"
"Of course not. I just think that brother, you should let her know the truth. I believe that my sister is not the kind of unreasonable person." The girl said unwillingly. Of course, she was unwilling to accept it for me, her brother. Although she was only twelve years old, she already knew how to consider her family. She was really sensible. At least she was hundreds of times better than the 21st century college students who even went to college even though she had gone to college all day long, but didn't know that she was concerned about her parents' well-being.
"Do you think I, I'm afraid I haven't seen each other a few times in the past few years. Who would she believe in the father and brother who had been with her day and night?" I gently patted the girl's back of her hand and said.
This question that does not require answers made the girl's eyes full of gloomy. It was heartbreaking to see it, but soon, the girl raised her head and smiled at me. "Brother, I understand. For someone like my brother, he can't find a better person than her."
"Of course, this is a must." I nodded vigorously and looked at the girl and smiled at her. Her eyes and heart were filled with warmth, just like the spring breeze blowing across the mountains and rivers, blowing into my heart.
--------------------
After a while, Mrs. Li San pulled my sister over again. The two expired loli were together and whispering in a low voice. From time to time, bursts of laughter like silver bells came.
Mrs. Li San's gaze drew me from time to time, and then muttered in my girl's ear, and then my girl muttered to her for a while. Anyway, I think this girl is also very gossipy, so she must be asking about this young master.
"Brother Wuji, I hope to take care of you in front of me. I am a straightforward girl." Li Shimin also came to me, raised the wine cup in his hand and said with a smile.
"It's okay, it makes the girl straightforward and stingy. If you think she's out there, she will definitely not suffer any loss." I waved my hand disregardlessly, um... It seems that Chai Shao is also pitiful. I don't know if she will be able to kneel on the washboard every day in the future. Hahahaha... It seems that this young master is indeed a little bit of a black-hearted.
Until we said goodbye and left, Li Yuan did not show up, and even Mrs. Li, Dou, did not show up. My sister and I politely declined Li Shimin's earnest visit. However, before leaving, we looked back and saw that the Li family girl was smiling with her close friends, but the mother was nowhere to be found.
Li Shimin was very enthusiastic, well, and he pulled me to the side not far away with him with a serious look, and said very vulgarly: "Brother Shi, don't forget, in two days, let's visit Brother Hongji. I heard that these days, Brother Hongji's little days are very unhealthy. We are brothers, so we naturally cannot see him suffer, and at least we have to visit him..." The expression was really like a little hooligan who was grinding his skin and itchy, eager to rush to the street alley, with his ribs exposed, and was screaming and playing with watermelon knife or folding a stool to fight with fire.
Well, I nodded numbly to Li Shimin's positive historical image, so I had completely damaged it. "Don't worry, Brother Wei has to look at this brother's platform. Brother Wei has been sick for several days, but this guy doesn't even show his face. It's true." When it comes to Liu Hongji, this really raised my interest.
Well, for Liu Hongji, who had never met before, but was described by that girl, almost wearing a pair of pants with me and Li Shimin, this guy didn't even go to the door when I was seriously ill, so he only asked his younger brother to come to the door with some medicinal materials and gifts.
According to my younger sister's complaints, uh, it was said that it was Liu Hongji's younger brother who said that during this period, Liu Hongji was fighting openly and secretly with Yuwen Ding, one of the three giants in Beijing. He was temporarily in a crisis, so he really couldn't come out to see me. He had to let his younger brother come to visit him on his behalf. After he stepped on his opponent under his seven-inch golden lotus, he would definitely come to visit him in person.
"Yes, since the three of us have brotherhood, Brother Shi was ill, Brother Hongji didn't even show his face. It was really annoying. After two days, I should go with my brother and ask for punishment! Let's see why Brother Hongji ignored my brother?" Li Shimin said with great eloquence, Well, I wonder if he was excited to be able to ask for punishment, or if he was excited to fight with the little gangster again?
Forget it, let him go. Maybe Li Shimin will not be timid or calm in the future. Maybe it has something to do with his considerable training in the underworld over the years.
"Then it's a matter of determination." Liu Hongji, the brother Liu Shi, who fell from a noble son to become a gangster elite, and finally changed his position to become a powerful general in the early Tang Dynasty, only heard of him in his previous life, but he had not seen him. Now, since I have come to this historical time and space, I naturally have to get close to these people who have left my famous name in history, which can be regarded as establishing good interpersonal relationships for my future.
After all, there are many friends and many enemies, and many enemies are blocking the wall. After Li Shimin made an appointment with me, he walked happily to my sister who was saying goodbye to Li San's wife. Anyway, this guy is so sweet-mouthed? Well, this guy is very eloquent, very much like the love saint of our preschool class back then, and the girl has always listened with a gentle smile.
After waiting for a while, I couldn't help but stand up and interrupt Li Shimin's constant Taotao. I didn't even see when it was now. I had to take my girl home for dinner. "My brother, if it's too late today, we brother and sister should go back, otherwise our mother should also worry. What should I say about it next day?"
Li Shimin couldn't continue to speak sweetly when he saw this, so he could only stand beside the road and look reluctantly at the carriage we were riding away, just like a stone looking for the husband? Well, the stone looking for the wife is almost the same.
This guy is completely a lolita. It seems that he must not let the girl get along with this guy alone. Well, as a brother, he has the responsibility and obligation to protect his girl from being attacked by beasts like lolita, especially Li Shimin.
When I think of this, I feel that the burden on my shoulders is a little heavier.

PS: I'm so sorry, I forgot to update yesterday. I didn't expect that everyone would be so powerful today, and two leaders suddenly jumped out of the league. I was so excited that I almost wanted to smash the machine and break through the dark room. Don't worry, I made up for yesterday's update today, and then there were two normal updates today. In addition, I added one update for the two leaders.
Chapter completed!
