Chapter 1254 Seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages
It is human nature not to make too powerful enemies.
There is nothing wrong with seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages.
When Li Qinzai learned that Shangguan Tingzhi's memorial was so fatal, he immediately wanted to retreat.
If you can't afford to offend him, even your in-laws can't help. The Shangguan family can risk their lives, but the Li family can't.
It is undeniable that the Li family has now become one of the noble families. Although Li Qinzai's position is still on the side of the poor family, with the performance of Li Ji and Li Qinzai's descendants, the Li family has indeed become an emerging family. The fundamental interests are no different from those of other aristocratic families.
It was rare for father and son Li Siwen and Li Qinzai to sit together calmly and reach a consensus with each other.
The Li family should not get involved in the Shangguan family's troubles, or they will cause serious trouble.
Li Qinzai actually had little friendship with the Shangguan family. Whether the Shangguan family was alive or dead did not have any emotional ups and downs for him.
The only thing that didn't make me feel comfortable in my heart was Shangguan Wan'er, that pretty girl.
She is Li Qinzai's designated daughter-in-law. She has a very cute personality and appearance. Li Qinzai would really not be able to bear it if she was involved in the family's disaster at a young age.
Li Siwen certainly knew something about Li Qinzai's thoughts. On that day, Shangguan Yi came to visit with his granddaughter, and Li Siwen somewhat understood Shangguan Yi's intention.
Patting Li Qinzai's shoulder, Li Siwen said in a deep voice: "Be your salty fish. No matter whether you are lazy or not seeking to make progress, what the Li family wants today is to maintain the status quo, not to develop. You are a salty fish." It doesn’t matter how much you want to dry the fish, as long as the holy family is not lost, the Li family can be prosperous for hundreds of years."
"But don't cause trouble, and don't take the initiative to cause trouble for our Li family. It's like a boat sailing on the sea, knowing that there is a reef in front of you. If you don't believe it, you have to try to hit it. Of course, the result will only be a shipwreck and death. Qinzai, don't do this. Such a stupid thing."
The words were unpleasant, and Li Qinzai couldn't help but argue: "Children are sometimes very motivated..."
Li Siwen sneered: "You are motivated because you want to turn over and continue to show off on the other side. What are you pretending to do?"
Li Qinzai opened his mouth.
I felt this father's love that was as heavy as a mudslide burying people alive.
…………
He promised Shangguan Wan'er to solve her father's troubles, but after a deep conversation with Li Siwen, Li Qinzai had to admit that he couldn't do it and might have to break his promise.
I felt a little guilty. Shangguan Wan'er came to visit the house in the past two days. Li Qinzai was too embarrassed to go out of the backyard and avoided the little girl intentionally or unintentionally.
Although he has lived two lifetimes and has a thick skin, Li Qinzai's old face will still turn red if he breaks his promise to a child of just a few years old.
After several days of preparation, the medical clinic in Yankangfang was opened.
The most excited person is Jin Dayan. Her long-term indifferent expression finally showed a hint of joy. She has been beaming with joy these days, smiling when everyone meets her. Sometimes she even leans on the door frame of the backyard room and laughs...
Li Qinzai wanted to remind her that women had better not lean on the doorframe and laugh.
But this female doctor, who has excellent medical skills and basically zero worldliness, doesn't seem to understand at all.
Li Qinzai had no choice but to tell her that she could lean on the doorframe at home and laugh as much as she wanted, but in your medical clinic, she must not touch the doorframe, let alone smile at passers-by. If others came up to ask for a price, they would easily explode.
Bloody conflict.
When the medical clinic opened, half of the dandies in Chang'an City were alarmed. Whether it was the miracle doctor's medical skills or Li Qinzai's face, they came to congratulate him in person.
Celebrity effect is very useful both in ancient times and modern times.
Li Qinzai and the dandies sat in Jin Dayan's medical clinic for a long time. Both the officials of Yankangfang and the Wuhou who patrolled the city, as well as the surrounding merchants and people, all knew that a medical clinic had been opened in Yankangfang.
It is not known what the medical skills of the medical clinic are, but what is certain is that the owner of this medical clinic has a very good background, and offending her is basically the same as offending the powerful people in the city.
On the opening day, after Li Qinzai and other dandies left, nearby merchants and people came hesitantly out of curiosity.
Jin Dayan is very kind to the patients who come to see her. She is also very professional and accurate in diagnosing the pulse. She can tell the past and present life of the patient by taking the pulse with three fingers. When the prescription is opened, the king of hell retreats.
On the day the medical clinic opened, Jin Dayan used her own strength to quickly make the medical clinic famous. Businessmen and people nearby flocked to it, and there was even a long queue at the door.
Li Qinzai expressed that he was very pleased that the miracle doctor was a miracle doctor. He had the ability and could do well no matter where he was.
Seeing Jin Dayan finishing her busy work, her forehead dripping with sweat, but her pretty face exuding vitality, Li Qinzai nodded secretly.
This is the only way I can repay this lifesaver for now.
Regardless of Kim Dayeon's superb medical skills, just looking at her face and figure, Li Qinzai was certainly tempted.
It is impossible for a man not to be tempted when he sees a beautiful woman. Every man has a dark side of human nature. When he sees a beautiful woman, he wants to sleep. If it is a stunning beauty, he would like to stuff his balls into her.
Don't deny it, please face your heart.
But Jin Dayan's indifferent character forced Li Qinzai to stop. He knew that Jin Dayan had no feelings for him. In her eyes, Li Qinzai was a creature composed of 206 bones and flesh and blood.
Individual, nothing more.
If something is wrong with this individual, she can fix it.
But she will not have any other thoughts about this individual.
A car repairman repairs so many cars in his life, but he has never seen a car repairman go through the exhaust pipe every day.
The same is true when it comes to Kim Dayeon and Lee Chin-jae.
A special guest came to the Duke's Mansion today.
To be honest, Li Qinzai didn't really want to see this guest, but he couldn't do it without meeting him.
Yes, Shangguan Wan'er came to visit again, and the person who brought her was not the servants of Shangguan's mansion, nor the old man Shangguan Yi, but her biological father Shangguan Tingzhi.
When Shangguan Wan'er entered Li's house, she automatically triggered the feeling at home skill. She let go of her father's hand and ran into the backyard to play with brother Qiao'er.
Shangguan Tingzhi was led into the front hall by Butler Wu. After sitting alone for a while, Li Qinzai came out to entertain the guests.
This was the first time Li Qinzai met Shangguan Tingzhi. He had not been active in the court in the past few years and basically stayed outside the center of power. He had never met many courtiers.
After seeing Shangguan Tingzhi, Li Qinzai saluted first. The seniority of the two was not easy to address. He called Shangguan Yi "grandpa", but Shangguan Yi's granddaughter had the possibility of getting married to Li Qinzai's son, so Li Qinzai met Shangguan Tingzhi.
, I don’t know whether I should call him Uncle Shangguan or Brother Shangguan.
So Li Qinzai had no choice but to laugh and pass the title vaguely.
Shangguan Tingzhi saw Li Qinzai's embarrassment, so he smiled and said: "The lower official's daughter Wan'er is about the same age as your son, and the dog Kun'er is a disciple of Duke Li. Duke Li, it is better to use children as the standard. You and I should be brothers."
Li Qinzai hurriedly handed over his hands: "Brother Shangguan, I have admired you for a long time."
Shangguan Tingzhi returned the gift, and then said solemnly: "Quinzi Kun'er has been carefully educated by the wise brother Meng Jingchu in the past few years. Although he is not outstanding in arithmetic, he is much better than children of the same age..."
"Not only that, the wise brother also taught Kun'er how to behave in the world. Kun'er has changed so much in the past few years. The elders of the family were surprised and praised him. This is all thanks to the gift of the wise brother. Brother Fool thanks the wise brother on behalf of Shangguan's family."
