"This is Brother Li's home. It's so luxurious..." Lin Yong stood in front of a mansion, looked up and couldn't help but say.
The woman next to him glanced at him and said: "After entering, don't call him that again. This is not Qi State, and he is no longer the Lin family's accountant. You have to know the dignity and inferiority."
"Don't worry, miss, I know this." Lin Yong nodded and walked towards the door.
When Lao Fang and Li Yi walked out of it, they couldn't help but said: "Uncle, I actually think that you need to apologize to the second lady for this matter. You shouldn't hide such an important matter from her. She is so angry."
Your anger is normal..."
"So, sister-in-law of the Fang family already knows about Xiao Hong?"
"This is different, the second lady is not..." Lao Fang opened his mouth and shook his head, "Forget it, it's the same..., but I still feel that my uncle is at fault in this matter."
Li Yi nodded, "I know, it's my fault, I will talk to her about it."
"Brother Li!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a voice came to his ears.
Generally speaking, others only call him uncle, master, Mr. Li, and Marquis Li. If the relationship is more familiar, like Li Xuan, he never needs to be called. I haven't heard the title "Brother Li" for a long time.
Arrived.
Li Yi raised his head and saw the man standing at the door with a surprised look on his face. He was stunned at first, and then surprise and surprise appeared on his face, "Brother Lin, why are you here?"
Lin Yong smiled and said: "I followed the lady here to do business, so I came to see you."
"It's the Chinese New Year, but you still work so hard." He generously gave him a bear hug and asked, "Where is Miss Lin?"
Lin Yong turned around, pointed to the back, and said: "There, I was just about to let someone go in to pass the message, and you came out."
Looking outside the house, Li Yi walked over quickly. The woman looked at him with a smile, stretched out her hand and said, "Long time no see."
"Long time no see..." Li Yi smiled and nodded, then looked at her outstretched hand in confusion and asked, "This is..."
Lin Wanru looked at him in surprise and asked: "Handshake ceremony, isn't this the etiquette here?"
"Oh, yes, yes..." Li Yi suddenly understood, stretched out his hand and touched her palm lightly, and asked tentatively: "Are you going to salute like this with everyone along the way?"
Lin Wanru shook her head, "You are the first."
"That's good, that's good." Li Yi nodded and said: "This kind of, well, handshake ceremony is actually a lost etiquette in my hometown. No one knows how to use it now, so when we meet in the future,
When you see others, just salute normally..."
"I understand." Lin Wanru gave him a thoughtful look, nodded, looked up at him again, and asked: "The handshake from your hometown... does it take so long to hold it?"
"Well... it depends on the time of separation. We haven't seen each other for more than half a year, so I should hold it for a little longer." Li Yi naturally let go of her hand and said, "Stop standing outside and go in quickly.
"
He turned back and waved to Lao Fang and said, "By the way, Lao Fang, go and inform the eldest lady that a distinguished guest has arrived at home."
When he walked into the house, Li Yi turned his head and asked her: "The Chinese New Year is coming soon, why do you come here at this time?"
"When doing business, there is no difference between not celebrating the Chinese New Year..." Lin Wanru smiled and said: "The more it is at this time, the busier it is. In the past years, I rarely spent time at home, but this year I have traveled farther.
That’s all.”
Not only is it far away, if it is a caravan, it will take at least several months to come from Qi State. This time, at least half a year will be delayed on the road.
Ruyi came out from inside and bowed to Lin Wanru first, then looked at Li Yi and asked: "Ms. sir, this girl is..."
Li Yi introduced: "This is Lin Wanru, the girl I often mentioned to you. Ruyi and I were in Qi during that time, thanks to Miss Lin's care."
"So this is Miss Lin." Ruyi held her hand and said: "My husband and Ruyi are living in Qi State. Thanks to Miss Lin for taking care of them, I have always wanted to thank you. This time I finally have a chance. Come in...
…”
A smile appeared on Lin Wanru's face, "Mrs. Li is so polite..."
Seeing them walking in hand in hand, Li Yi looked around and asked, "Where is Ruyi?"
During those days in Qi State, Miss Liu Er only had Lin Wanru as a friend, and I believe she would be happy to see her again.
A maid said: "The second young lady should be in the room."
"Go and call her..." Li Yi said, then waved his hand and said, "Forget it, I'll go there in person."
You and Ms. Liu Er cannot continue to have a cold war. Someone has to speak first. Generally speaking, this person can only be him.
Seeing Xiao Huan sitting on the corridor in front of Miss Liu Er's room from a distance, Li Yi walked over and asked, "Is Miss Er Liu inside?"
The little maid nodded, Li Yi rubbed her head habitually and walked inside.
"Hey, uncle..." Xiaohuan immediately stopped him.
"What's wrong?" Li Yi turned around and asked doubtfully: "Is there anything else?"
The little maid rolled her eyes, bit her lip, and then said with a smile: "It's okay, uncle, please go in..."
With the lesson learned from last time, Li Yi first knocked on the door and heard the sound of "come in" from inside, then opened the door and walked in.
After closing the door and turning around, he was stunned.
This time it wasn't because I saw something I shouldn't have seen. To be precise, I didn't see anything this time.
The room was filled with water vapor, blocking the view. In addition, there was a faint fragrance.
A look of surprise appeared on Li Yi's face. Could it be that she was secretly cultivating immortality in the room?
"Xiaohuan, please help me add some hot water."
When Miss Liu Er's voice came out of the mist, Li Yi finally realized what had happened.
He cleared his throat and asked: "Um..., there is an important guest at home. Do you want to go out and meet him?"
The voice in the mist paused for a moment, then came again: "Get out."
Li Yi turned around decisively without any hesitation. When he closed the door, he asked carefully, "Um, do you want hot water?"
…
When he walked to the yard, he saw the little maid still standing there. Before he could speak, Xiaohuan covered her stomach and said with a grimace: "Uncle, I, I have a stomachache. I'm going back to the room first..."
Seeing her running away quickly, Li Yi said in surprise: "Stomachache? It shouldn't be the past few days..."
He looked back at Miss Liu Er's door and decided to stand here and wait for her.
Not long after, Miss Liu Er, who had changed her clothes, walked out.
She didn't mention what happened just now, but looked at Li Yi and said calmly: "Is she coming home?"
Li Yi was startled when he heard this. No way, she could even guess this?
Seeing Li Yi's expression, her eyes fluctuated and she asked again: "The painting hidden in your study is her, right? You two have known each other a long time ago?"
"ah?"
"I was the one who broke you up when I tied you up to the mountain. If it weren't for me, you and her would have already... My sister doesn't care, and I have no reason to object." Miss Liu Er looked at him and said, "But, this
You shouldn't hide this thing from me. Next time, next time if you hide it from me like this..., I, I will never ignore you."
"ah?"
"Ah what?" She took a deep breath and said, "Let's go and meet the second lady of the Li family."
"What second lady?" Li Yi looked at her in surprise and said, "Miss Lin has come to Kyoto. I'll call you and take you to see her. What are you talking about?"
"ah?"
"Ah what, what did you mean by what you just said?"
Miss Liu Er froze on the spot. After a moment, she waved her hand and said calmly: "It's nothing, let's go."
When walking with her, Li Yi seemed to understand something. He suddenly stopped, looked at her, and promised: "Don't worry, next time, next time, next time, next time... I won't do it."
