The trip to the Zhen family was a complete success. Not only did they gain the Zhen family's understanding of the Yan family's cancellation of the engagement, but they also established an effective connection between the two families through the marriage between Li Shushi and Zhen Qing (Zhen Ji).
Tong Yuan was also very satisfied. Although Yan He was his brother-in-law, after so many years, even the closest relationship would become cold. However, through this public relations trip, Tong Yuan used his influence to successfully help Yan He.
The family saved the unfavorable situation and found a very reliable backup for Li Shushi.
Moreover, on the way back to Yan's house, Li Shushi learned from Su Xiaoluoli that Old Man Tong and Zhen Yi seemed to have had a secret conversation for a long time after the banquet. It was obvious that the two parties had reached a certain tacit understanding with each other. Li Shushi once asked Old Man Tong, but Old Man Tong said nothing
He was very strict. He kept saying "It's a good thing" over and over again and dismissed Li Shushi.
However, Mr. Tong also took the opportunity to educate Li Shushi and asked him to learn to make friends. For example, the reason why Yan He made this decision this time was fundamentally because of Mr. Tong's intervention. Otherwise, Yan Liang would have married Zhen, the eldest daughter of the Zhen family.
It doesn't matter if Queen Jiang dies early. Anyway, the two families have established a relationship, and the Yan family can't afford to support a widow. But because of Tong Yuan's intervention, Yan He can use this as an excuse to suppress the current head of the family, Yan, who is confused about this.
Yu also sells a favor to Tong Yuan.
The Yan family was able to swallow their anger and accept the two marriages after the two eldest daughters were brutally insulted. This was mainly due to Yu Zhenzi's ability and Tong Yuan's future development. Of course, the family's influence gradually penetrated into the country through Li Yan.
Bingzhou and Hedong areas. The current Li Shushi is the original Tong Yuan. Although he has no reputation, he is protected by a good old man and a group of capable people and strangers gather around him.
This kind of person can be a powerful person when he is ruling the world, but he is second to Liu Bang in times of trouble. Moreover, Li Shushi lacks literary advisers around him, and the Yan family is not good enough. His ability to serve as a grassroots official is undoubtedly the first among the gentry in Hebei. Regardless of what he is doing.
Li Shushi sorted out the government affairs of a place or took charge of a place to educate and bring peace to the people, and the Yan family could get enough benefits.
It was precisely when Yan He saw this that he helped the two of them openly. Taking a step back, the world is indeed not peaceful now. The restless barbarians in the north, the wandering refugees, and the rumored Taiping Road will all be affected.
It has an impact on the survival of the family. Isn't it a pleasure to find a strong party to look after the home and care for the home?
Therefore, when Tong Yuan and his party returned to Yanjiazhuang, Yuancheng County, he was warmly welcomed by the former patriarch Yan He and the current patriarch Yan Yu.
I don't know whether it's because Yan He and Yan Yu have a relationship or because Li Shushi's net worth has increased significantly after his successful marriage to the Zhen family. In short, Li Shushi feels that the level of attention he receives is obviously higher than before he went to the Zhen family.
It took nearly half a month to go back and forth. At this time, the north wind had gone south, and the Central Plains was no longer as humid as summer. Although the temperature drop was not obvious, the refreshing weather still reminded the northern land of the
Dear common people, the time of autumn harvest is not far away.
Li Shushi and his friends met again, but except for Wei Yue and Lu Bu who came over to say hello, everyone else seemed to be immersed in books.
Hungry, it seems, is not all. I saw that there were two lunch boxes over there and I was in a dilemma. I saw Li Shushi was about to rush over, but he was quickly caught by the two little hands and eyes around him. Little friend Zhao Yun was not attracted by the books that make human progress.
.However, Li Shushi believed that he originally wanted to throw himself on the books like he threw himself on the bread, but the two lunch boxes obviously reminded him that if he wanted to throw himself on the ideological bread, it would be better to consider the physical lunch.
Of course, Li Shushi also believed that those two bento boxes were not killer lunches that you would get after eating them. At least the bean cake made by Xiaodouzi was very soft, sweet and delicious to Li Shushi. Xiaodouzi was also made because of the beans.
The deliciousness of the cake makes people almost forget her name.
As for Fan Juan, she is also a good cook. What Li Shushi likes most about ordinary women in the Three Kingdoms is that everyone cooks good food. There may not be any precious ingredients, but they are cooked with care, and the ingredients are natural and non-toxic.
The pollution, no pesticide residues and chemical contamination, and the taste are commendable. Having said that, ordinary women who can't cook are waiting to be divorced these days.
Speaking of cooking, we have to mention another business item that Li Shushi, a gluttonous otaku, has added to Liji Grocery: oil pressing. Whether it is peanut oil or soybean oil, anyway, greasy lard oil. Li Shushi said that it can still be used when eating sauerkraut in winter.
Accept it, it seems that eating more will have an impact on the digestive system.
Pressed bean cakes and peanut cakes are Zhaohuang's favorites. He seems to be full every time he waits. And the appetites of Lu Bu and others are in danger of being spoiled recently. Fried peanuts and boiled beans in salt water are also good drinks.
Good food, so Tong Yuan seems to have been looking for a place recently to open a few acres of land to plant these two cash crops on a large scale. Besides, these two crops are still very fertile. If the crop rotation is proper, increasing production will not be a problem.
Of course, in this era when there are no pesticides or genetically modified varieties, if you want to get a good harvest, you have to worship the Qinglong God who is in charge of the growth of all things. But as a certain wise wolf once said, if you don’t suppress it at some point,
Crop growth lacks effective fertilization
The nutrients accumulated in the soil will be consumed. Therefore, Qinglong will not blindly bring good harvests to the land. However, sometimes when most of the land in the country catches up with the land and needs cultivation, then the national power will appear to be in danger.
, for example, in the past few years.
Although the Yan family's collection of books is indeed nostalgic, and the lectures of the Yan family's old doctors who are well-read in poetry and books are also insightful, it is a pity that Li Shushi could not stay for long. It was not a pleasant feeling to be under someone else's roof. You must know that Li Shushi even worked for Old Man Tong. Even when I was doing my own cooking and housework, I still insisted on returning to my own nest after get off work. I still wanted to ensure that I had a relatively private living space.
However, Old Man Tong posed a difficult problem for him. Should he go back to Youzhou or to Bingzhou?
Not to mention Youzhou, Li Shushi has a family, a house, friends and a job there, and has completely established his own social network. The Li family's ancient house in Lishi has been abandoned for many years, with no one to clean it. The facilities in the house are old or there are no facilities at all.
, it can be said that everything is waiting for you to do when you stay here.
But that is the ancestral home of the Li family, and it is where Li Shushi inherits the Li family's foundation. Only when Li Shushi inherits the Li family's business there can he be qualified to fully accept the property under the Li family's name.
You must know that in recent years, many people who have separated from the Li family in Lishi want to inherit the clan's property. Unfortunately, when Li Yan passed away, he entrusted the family property to his senior brother and brother-in-law Tong Yuan and his own family.
Wife's brother Yan He helps
In addition, in order to penetrate into the military world, Cao Jie in the DPRK tried to win over Tong Yuan and Li Yan, who were once Duan Jiong's trusted subordinates, as well as the strong protection of Dong Zhuo, the former governor of Bingzhou, so the position of the Li family clan was so empty.
hanging.
But procrastinating like this is still a problem after all. At this time, Cao Jie is dead, Dong Zhuo has been transferred, and the new governor of Bingzhou, Ding Yuan, needs the support of Bingzhou's wealthy families, and the Li family's problems are imminent again.
"Do you want to go to Bingzhou?" After all, Li Shushi is still a homebody, and political struggle is not his strong point. When faced with this kind of choice, he seemed a little hesitant.
"What's so difficult about this? Just ask Gao Zian to take Old Man Tong and your letter and say hello to the governor. After all, brother Fengxian was as close to him as father and son, although it would be threatening if brother Fengxian went there in person.
, but Brother Zi'an doesn't have such a situation. Maybe the Governor Ding can still remember some of the love. And in this way, maybe we will get the full support of the Governor Ding."
Su Xiaololi seems to be in a good mood recently, and she can often be heard humming country tunes she learned from nowhere with her cute voice. Even the tone in her daily dealings with Li Shushi is a bit more coquettish.
No, seeing Li Shushi's frowning expression, the little Loli jumped out to help with ideas.
"I don't know how the melons on your head grow, but what you say makes people look so mature. But thank you for your concern." After saying that, he consciously touched Su Xiaololi's hair that felt so good.
Li Shushi often doesn't behave like a normal young lady, and Su Xiaololi often doesn't behave like an ordinary lolita. Sometimes Li Shushi can't help but wonder, could this lolita be like a vampire lady in a certain red shop?
Is X Miria an old monster who has lived for a thousand years?
"Who...who cares about you? I...I can tell you, I just don't want to go to that shabby place. I'm definitely not caring about you~ You have to remember."
Yes, Tsundere, etc., we are still very cute. It would be nice if we could say "Urusa" three times in a row again.
Su Xiaoluoli's words were affirmed by Tong Yuan. After discussing with Lu Bu what Ding Yuan might do, Tong Yuan slightly modified Su Luoli's plan and went to Hanoi to meet Ding Yuan himself, while Li Shushi led everyone
Zhou’s hometown. I think Tong Laoxu will probably have a very cordial and in-depth exchange with Ding Yuan.
p.s. On the first day after I was released from the list, I finally had time to read the books I had piled up that I hadn’t read in a long time.
