Li Xiaonan sat on the porch, put down her pen, stood up, turned her head and moved her shoulders and neck, watching Sister Mei happily holding up a small stone lock in the yard.
Sister Mei was eating a lot, but she still couldn't lose weight, so Ah Wu asked her to lift the stone lock and taught her a set of boxing. Sister Mei practiced boxing morning and night. Whenever she had free time, she would lift the stone lock happily.<
/p>
Li Xiaonan looked at Sister Mei absentmindedly, thinking about something to talk about.
Originally, she planned to wait until the marriage was more settled before talking to the eldest sister, but now she was going to have a wedding ceremony, and it would be inappropriate not to talk to the eldest sister.
But if I tell the eldest sister, the eldest sister will definitely tell Tang Wengweng and the others, because this is not their family's business. If Tang Wengweng finds out, even if the marriage is not consummated before the marriage is tight-lipped, people like Tang Wengweng,
You must make some preparations, such as paying attention to a tall enough wood to be erected at the entrance of the ancestral hall, such as preparing a dowry.
In this case, those who are staring at the minister, such as the old man of the Hong family, will definitely be able to see something...
Alas, forget it, don’t think too much about it, Wan Qing has a saying that is right: Nothing in the world is perfect!
After dinner, Yu Ting helped Sister Mei wash the dishes and put them away quickly, then trotted along with A Wu and the other three, and went out to listen to Pingtan.
Li Xiaonan watched the three people go out and sat next to the eldest sister. She first talked about going to Hangzhou to talk about Gezhi, and then talked about Gu Yan's marriage.
Li Yuzhu's eyes widened, but Li Jinzhu was not as surprised as Li Yuzhu.
"During the Chinese New Year, there was one time when I was talking to three people, my cousin, Mr. Wengweng, and Uncle Datang. We talked about Yuzhu's marriage, and then about you. Mr. Weng asked me to look up and think about it, saying that the prince's treatment of you is very unusual.
, maybe I don’t want to ask for marriage." Li Jinzhu looked at Li Xiaonan and said.
"I never heard you mention it." Li Yuzhu wrapped the needle and thread around the sole of the shoe. She had no intention of wrapping the sole.
"You've felt it a long time ago, haven't you?" Li Jinzhu didn't answer Li Yuzhu's words, but looked at Li Xiaonan and asked.
"It's not very early." Li Xiaonan said with a smile, "He told me that I didn't tell you that day because he definitely didn't have the final say in his marriage. We are too far apart from the royal family.
, now I have to talk about style."
Li Xiaonan didn't say anything else, and Li Jinzhu hummed, "Is it to raise your status by asking you to talk about style?"
Li Xiaonan hummed.
"That means you are seriously planning for grandma." Li Yuzhu said.
"You have to tell me, Mr. Wengweng." Li Jinzhu thought for a while, looked at Li Xiaonan and said.
"Yeah." Li Xiaonan nodded.
………………………………
Li Shikuan happened to be in Pingjiang City, and the two families were not far away. Li Jinzhu and Li Yuzhu went over and talked about Ge Zhihe's plan to get married.
Li Wenliang sent Li Jinzhu and Li Yuzhu back and rushed home.
Li Shikuan had already asked his eldest daughter-in-law to fry a plate of peanuts, fish out a few pieces of drunken fish, mix a plate of dried radish with sesame oil, and another plate of braised dried beans. Four kinds of side dishes were arranged to go with wine, and a large pot of rice wine was also slightly warm.
Hot.
Grandma Guo stood in the courtyard, looking at the smiling family man in the main room, and listening to the sounds outside the courtyard door.
Hearing the footsteps, Grandma Guo rushed to the door of the courtyard, opened the door, and let her husband in. She pointed to the main room and asked, "What's the matter? Are you so happy for me?"
"I can't tell you right now, but don't worry, it won't be a good thing." Li Wenliang responded with a smile and walked into the main room.
"Such a big jug of wine! Dad is going to get drunk before he can stop." Li Wenliang looked at the big jug and laughed.
"I can't get drunk! Your father can drink well." Li Shikuan took out a cup from the warm water.
Li Wenliang sifted the wine from the big pot into the small jug, poured two glasses, raised the cup and smiled at his father: "This is a toast to my father. Without my father's discernment, our Li family would not be where we are today."<
/p>
"That day was like a strange coincidence. It was the fate of our Li family." Li Shikuan raised his head and drank a glass of wine, sighing with emotion.
"Last time, my father said that the prince was special to my grandmother. I really didn't dare to think too much about it. I just thought that I could have her by my side..." Li Wenliang laughed, "I still have to learn from my father."
"I didn't expect that it was the old fox in the Hong family who reminded me. When winter first came, there were some good huanghuali branches. The old fox sent someone to ask me if I wanted them. He said that he heard that huanghuali furniture was in fashion in the capital.
Good huanghuali are rare. Don’t be too anxious to buy them when you’re making dowry. This old fox!” Li Shikuan clicked his tongue.
"This old fox is very powerful! The first time he saw the prince, he snatched our silver pearl." Li Wenliang continued with a smile.
Li Shikuan laughed, sipped half a glass of wine, and said with a smile: "Tomorrow we will have to get busy. I have roughly sorted it out just now. There are two things in front of me. One is that grandma is going to give a lecture.
One is A-nan’s house.”
Li Wenliang listened attentively.
"As for the lecture, I will go to Biye tomorrow to find Mr. Shi Gunshi and ask him what we should do about the lecture.
"You go take care of the house. According to Jin Zhu's previous plan, when Yu Zhu and Grandma are married, the current house will be occupied by Xuedong and his family, and she will buy another small house.
"We can't arrange it like this now. When A'nan becomes the princess, she will become famous all over the world. At that time, I don't know how many eyes will be on our Li family. Jin Zhu will buy another house. Xuedong will be scolded as ungrateful. A'nan
Maybe not.
"What I mean is that the house should be located in Lijiaji, which is where the house is now. There happens to be a large open space behind it. All of them are enclosed to build a big house. This has to be discussed with Jinzhu.
[By the way, the best app for reading and listening to books is currently Yeguo Reading. Install the latest version on yeguoyuedu.]
"Tomorrow morning, you first go to Jinzhu to discuss it, and then go to Kunshan County to find Old Fox Hong. Talk to him first, just like I said, and ask him to help pay more attention to Huanghuali like last time. Then talk to him
He said that he would like to ask him to help with the arrangement of the house to see if it is thoughtful and appropriate."
Li Shikuan explained in detail, Li Wenliang listened attentively, nodded in agreement, and asked: "What about the fine cloth?"
"Leave the fine cloth matter to your wife, call the second daughter-in-law here, and let them take care of it with your wife. After arranging the house in Lijiaji, I'm afraid you have to go to the capital, the capital.
We also need to buy a house. From now on, we will have to come and go to the capital frequently, so we cannot live without a house."
Li Shikuan paused in his words, narrowed his eyes slightly, lost his mind for a while, and said with a smile: "When I was young, I visited the capital several times. It was already twenty years ago."
"My father is going to the capital again, but things are different than before." Li Wenliang said with a smile.
"Speaking of this, we need to teach the clan not to get carried away in the future. Alas, there are so many things going on." Before Li Shikuan's brows even knitted together, he started laughing again.
"Do it one by one. Dad said that it will be hard when you go up. We are not afraid of the hard work." Li Wenliang said with a smile.
"What are you afraid of after such hard work! When I was young..." Li Shikuan drank wine and chatted with his son about the past, present and future.
