Chapter 508 Everyone is happy
Children are innocent! This sentence is a consensus among most people in later generations. No matter how great the sin his parents committed, it has nothing to do with them from a legal perspective. However, the ethical environment in ancient times was different. Some people were born with original sin, even if they did nothing, but they had to bear the sins of the previous generation when they were born, and wild dogs were such people.
Although the wild dog hates the ghost beggar very much, he is the son of the ghost beggar leader, and his mother was born after being raped. Speaking of this, we have to admire the wild dog's mother. She accepted the child with original sin with maternal love and even gave him more maternal love. But this does not mean that others can accept the wild dog, especially the relative of Mrs. Xu, the wild dog mother.
Looking at Mrs. Xu with a gloomy face, Li Zhang sighed and said again: "When I first met Li Ye, he was snatching food with a group of wild dogs. He never admitted that he had a father, and even named himself Wild Dog. Later, I asked him to take my surname and named Li Ye, and he hated the Ghost Beggar very much because his mother died at the hands of the leader of the Ghost Beggar, so he worked hard to practice martial arts since he was a child. When he grew up, he finally avenged his mother himself!"
When Mrs. Xu heard Li Zhang explaining the life experience of the wild dog, Mrs. Xu's body trembled again, especially when she heard that her nephew was actually snatching food with the wild dog and didn't even have a serious name, her tears couldn't stop flowing out. In any case, the other party was the son of her favorite sister after all, especially when she heard that the wild dog actually avenged her sister with her own hands, which made Mrs. Xu feel a little favor for the wild dog.
"What...he looks like? Are he okay now?" Mrs. Xu finally asked with some difficulty.
"The wild dog is half a head taller than me, he looks pretty and has good martial arts skills. He also kidnapped one of my most virtuous sisters as his wife some time ago. I guess he may have children next year." Li Zhang introduced with a smile again.
"By the way, I almost forgot that Wild Dog is now the instructor. It is the martial arts that was changed into the Wucheng King Temple before. The martial arts students who are specialized in teaching martial arts. Although the level is not high, they are also considered to be a formal official of the court." Li Zhang suddenly thought of Wild Dog going to martial arts again, so he introduced again.
Mrs. Xu also shed tears of relief when she heard this. Although her sister's experience was very miserable, at least the child she left was quite successful. Not only did she not go on the wrong path, she also became a formal official. It can be said that she started a family and started a career. If her sister had learned about it, she would definitely feel some comfort.
Thinking of the above, Mrs. Xu also showed a hesitant expression. Although she was still a little jealous of the wild dog's background, she had no relatives around her. Her cousins stopped interacting when they were competing for family property, and the relationship between her husband's family was also very cold. It can be said that there is no one in this world worthy of her concern.
But now a relative suddenly appeared, and the other party was his sister's child. Especially although this child was born in a ghost beggar's nest, he was on the right path and finally did not disappoint his sister's teachings. This also made her feel the urge to see the child.
"Brother Li, where is this child? I want to see him!" Mrs. Xu hesitated for a while and finally spoke. After all, the other party was his sister's child, and he had to meet him in terms of emotion and reason.
"No problem, do you want the wild dog to come here, or will I take you to the wild dog's house?" Li Zhang was also very happy at this time and asked again.
Although in terms of etiquette, the wild dog should come to see Mrs. Xu, although Mrs. Xu agreed to see the wild dog, she did not say that she would recognize the nephew. So if Mrs. Xu said she wanted to go to the wild dog, she might not want to disclose her relationship with the wild dog. But if she asked the wild dog to come to the old house of Zhou, she might want to recognize the nephew, and there would be a possibility of making it public in the future.
Mrs. Xu hesitated again when she heard Li Zhang's words, and then she spoke firmly: "I guess he also wants to see her mother's former residence back then. If you are sorry, Brother Li will bring him to my place!"
"Madam is very wise, and Li admires it!" Li Zhang stood up and bowed to Mrs. Xu solemnly. If Mrs. Xu could recognize the nephew of Wild Dog, then Wild Dog would finally have a blood relative in the future.
"Brother Li is polite. He feels a little ashamed to speak. Because of our family affairs, Brother Li has been so rude. He has never asked about Brother Li's identity yet. Judging from your demeanor and behavior, he should not be an ordinary person, right?" Mrs. Xu was polite at first, and then looked at Li Zhang curiously and said that although she was from a merchant, her husband's family was an official family and had met some officials and nobles, so she also felt a unique aura from Li Zhang.
"Madam, don't blame me. I had no choice but to hide my identity before. In fact, I am named Li Zhang, now the position of Shangqi Duwei and the Martial Arts School Supervisor. I used to work in the Firearms Supervisor." Li Zhang smiled and introduced his identity.
"Li Zhang?" Mrs. Xu frowned when she heard Li Zhang's name, because she felt that the name sounded very familiar. Then she suddenly remembered it and looked at Li Zhang in shock and said, "I remember, Empress Dowager Li, whom she recognized with His Majesty before, was...that's..."
"Yes, Empress Dowager Li is my aunt." Li Zhang smiled helplessly at this time. The recognition of Empress Dowager Li and Zhao Zhen had already been revealed to the world. This incident caused a great response. After all, gossip related to the royal family is always the most eye-catching. There have even been many street storytellers adapting this incident into a story, which is the prototype of the story of "The Crown Cat for the Prince". The Li Zhang family was also dug out, so now almost all the names of the Li Zhang family have been heard of.
"It turns out that you are Li Duwei, who is famous in the capital. I heard that the ghost beggar was also wiped out with your help?" Mrs. Xu said excitedly again when she heard this. When the ghost beggar was wiped out, it was also a major event that shocked the capital. Especially for those who were killed by the ghost beggar, they were inquired from many sources, so her understanding of Li Zhang did not only start with Empress Dowager Li.
"Yes, in fact, the wild dogs who made the most effort to eliminate the ghost beggars were the wild dogs. If he hadn't taken the risk of going deep into the ground, drawing out the map of the underground pits, and personally led people down the pits to intercept the ghost beggars, the court would not have easily wiped out the ghost beggars!" Li Zhang mentioned the contribution of the wild dogs again at this time.
In fact, after the destruction of the ghost beggar, the wild dog made great contributions. Li Zhang once wanted to ask for credit for the wild dog. Liu E even wanted to arrange the wild dog to enter the palace as a guard, but the wild dog refused because he did not want to leave Li Zhang and other relatives, so Liu E had to give up in the end.
After hearing Li Zhang's words, Mrs. Xu was even more curious about the nephew of Wild Dog. Of course, she did not forget Li Zhang. She thanked Li Zhang repeatedly for destroying the ghost beggars to avenge their relatives in the family. Li Zhang was also polite and said a few words, then said goodbye and left the old house of Zhou. He wanted to tell the Wild Dog this good news early and also asked the Wild Dog to prepare. After all, the first visit tomorrow will not be a loss in etiquette.
When Li Zhang came to the wild dog's house, Xiuxiu was the first to meet him, her face full of nervousness, while Li Zhang laughed and said, "Don't worry, Mrs. Xu wants to see the wild dog tomorrow. You go and prepare some gifts, and then make the wild dog more energetic, and then you will visit together tomorrow!"
"That's great, I'll prepare now!" Xiuxiu was so happy that she almost jumped up when she heard Li Zhang's words, and then ran back to prepare.
Li Zhang went to find the wild dog. At this time, the wild dog was practicing martial arts in the martial arts hall. A long sword was splashed with water by him, and his upper clothes were wet with sweat. It seemed that he had been practicing for a long time. Li Zhang also knew that the wild dog likes to practice swords when he was in a bad mood, and when he was in a good mood, he liked boxing. Only a few people in the family knew this little habit.
After the wild dog finished practicing a set of swords, Li Zhang interrupted him and said, "Ms. Xu asked you to go to the old Zhou family house tomorrow. Then take Xiuxiu with her. She should like Xiuxiu's character!"
"Yeah!" The wild dog nodded when he heard this, then inserted the knife back into the weapon stand, and did not say anything else. Instead, he started to punch a set of Taizu Long Fist, which made Li Zhang laugh, and did not disturb the wild dog anymore, and turned around and left here.
The next morning, Li Zhang came to the wild dog's house again, Xiuxiu also prepared a lot of gifts carefully, and both of them changed into new clothes. After Li Zhang checked them and found that there were no omissions, he took the couple into the carriage.
When their carriage came to the old house of Zhou, Li Zhang unexpectedly discovered that Mrs. Xu had actually greeted her in person. Li Zhang was the first to jump off the carriage, and then the wild dog helped Xiuxiu off the carriage. When Mrs. Xu saw the appearance of the wild dog, she couldn't help but tremble, and then tears couldn't stop flowing down, because the appearance of the wild dog was so much like his mother. Mrs. Xu saw him as if she had seen the younger sister.
The wild dog was also looking at Mrs. Xu at this time, but he didn't know what to call her. Finally, after Li Zhang's reminder, he stepped forward and bowed: "My younger generation, Li Ye, pays homage to Mrs.!"
"What's your name? Call me aunt!" Mrs. Xu grabbed the wild dog's hands with tears in her eyes and said, "I was a little suspicious before seeing the wild dog, but when she saw the wild dog that looked so similar to her sister, she threw away all her doubts and recognized her nephew no matter what.
