Chapter 44: Fight for freedom of marriage

Li Jiancheng felt that Dugu's grandmother wanted to force Li Xiuning to bow her head, so he smiled and said to Li Xiuning:

"Thank you for your understanding of the third sister; however, if you feel unhappy, let's think of other ways. If you really can't, you can call Liu Honglang out and beat him up; but it won't hurt his head. After all, Dr. Liu still needs Dr. Liu to help recuperate his body."

Li Xiuning had no idea about Li Jiancheng's decision. At that time, Li Jiancheng discovered that she was infected with carbon poison. The unique sensitivity of the girl made her feel that Li Jiancheng was afraid that she would feel uncomfortable by Dugu's grandmother's questioning.

A naughty feeling flashed in her eyes and said to Li Jiancheng: "Actually, there is no need to pull Dr. Liu out. Brother, please take me around for a walk in the lights."

Li Jiancheng's eyes flashed and he smiled. He knew best that Li Xiuning, a sister, was not ordinary. She tried different ways to make herself not care about the previous things.

When Li Xiuning went to see the lanterns, he was naturally talking about the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. That day can be said to be the most lively time on the streets throughout the year. Even women who don’t go out very much on weekdays will make an appointment to go out and walk together. They will pass by the bridge when they see it. They believe that this can cure diseases and prolong life, and are called "going to all diseases".

It was the day when you could go out, Li Jiancheng smiled and said, "Success, that's all. However, your brother, my wallet is not rich, so you should take it lighter at that time." After that, he blinked at Li Xiuning.

Li Xiuning was stunned. In the past, the eldest brother was not good to him, but he always asked him about Feng Yi, the eldest son of the Duke's Mansion. He had never seen such a self-taught tone. It seemed that the eldest brother's temperament changed after experiencing the horse-descending incident.

She thought that during the Lantern Festival last year, Li Jiancheng and her two concubines had indeed spent a lot of money on food and fun. Now, the eldest brother pulled him back and waited for someone, maybe he had spent all the money he brought with him.

So she would pursed her lips and smiled, feeling that the elder brother who had different ways to ask for money was more humane.

If Li Jiancheng made a move to ask for money for other things, Li Xiuning might also think that this elder brother was a bit frivolous; but now he wanted money for money to take him out for fun, this feeling would be different, and he suddenly felt that the relationship between the two people was closer.

After hearing Li Jiancheng's words, Dugu's grandmother laughed and scolded: "What's the point? If outsiders hear this, how would they think of many Duke's mansions? Will they settle down?"

Li Jiancheng now got the temper of Dugu’s grandmother, so he smiled and said, “There are no outsiders here, so let me tell the truth.”

Dugu's grandmother laughed and shook her head, looked at Dou Hui and said, "You can see that this is a reform and asking for money."

"Mother, what do you mean is...? Everyone's monthly money is 20% added during the Chinese New Year?" Dou Hui was in charge of the family and couldn't just add money to his son.

Dugu's grandmother hesitated for a moment and said, "There's no need. We still have to seal the New Year's money during the Chinese New Year."

Li Jiancheng and Li Xiuning looked at each other, knowing that the money was obtained and grandmother would not be too stingy.

After talking for a while, Dugu's grandmother said she wanted to go back and asked Li Jiancheng to support her.

After Li Jiancheng helped Dugu grandmother come out, Dugu grandmother said to Mei Xiang: "You go to the kitchen to see what you have. Dalang will accompany me to have dinner in the evening."

When Mei Xiang heard that Li Jiancheng was going to stay with Dugu’s grandmother for dinner, her mouth was slightly raised and her eyes were shining with light. This gave her more opportunities to get along with the eldest son.

Li Jiancheng originally wanted to avoid Mei Xiang and be a little bit lighter to her, so she could figure it out, but it seems that Fugui is squinting his eyes.

So, Li Jiancheng began to explain this matter directly to Dugu’s grandmother.

When Mei Xiang turned around and left, before Li Jiancheng could speak, Dugu's grandmother asked first: "What do you think of Mei Xiang? You are not young anymore. It's not bad to have a close girl serving you."

Li Jiancheng immediately shook his head and said, "Although adding fragrance to the red sleeves is a good thing, it must be added to the right fragrance. What do you think of grandmother?"

It was not Li Jiancheng who had a view of Mei Xiang, the maid next to him. He simply rejected such people who only valued his "identity".

There is a saying that the butt determines the head, which means that the person’s thoughts will change due to the different positions he is in.

This is how Li Jiancheng made a comeback and changed.

In his previous life, he felt that while those rich and powerful men were hugging each other, they were still complaining, why was it so difficult to find someone who only loved him?

When Li Jiancheng heard this, he would roll his eyes and curse in his mind: "Bitch, pretentious! I don't know how many people are bastards. They are really full and don't know that hungry men are hungry."

Now, Li Jiancheng is also a person with status and status. He suddenly realized that someone was really going to knock you down because of your status.

His first one is trouble.

If it were Li Jiancheng, who was named Prince in his previous life, he might have surrendered with Mei Xiang's initiative. After all, at that time, he was just a technically handsome man without pressure.

Now, Li Jiancheng feels that every minute of his life is precious, which is related to whether he can survive the Xuanwu Gate Incident.

If you want to live successfully and nourish, you must put in countless time and energy; he has no secret of American time and Mei Xiang.

Besides, if there is one more person around him, it will be inconvenient for him to act, after all, he has many secrets on his body.

Although Dugu’s grandmother didn’t know what Li Jiancheng said, she could understand what Li Jiancheng meant, so she asked, “Then which kind of fragrance do you like?”

"I haven't found it yet, so I'll tell you when I find it." Li Jiancheng felt a little uncomfortable when he spoke. When he was fooled by obsession, he just thought that he could live with his memories for a lifetime and understand many incomprehensible mystery.

Not to mention anything else, he was so excited just thinking that he could see so many historical celebrities with his own eyes.

Ignored that this era has its rules. Not to mention anything else, marriage is mostly a marriage of interests between two families, and the saying of love is too illusory.

For a man who has experienced freedom of marriage, this kind of arranged marriage is really difficult to accept. Who knows whether the temperament of a woman who married home is in line with her?

Li Jiancheng, now saying this to Dugu's grandmother is also because of the vaccination, telling Dugu's grandmother that he is not casual in terms of women, in order to gain some freedom of marriage. (To be continued)
