Chapter 82: The right one is not as good as the one you want
Mrs. Li was furious.
"Is this the time to be willful?"
"This is a time when our Li family's life and death are at stake."
Mrs. Lin wiped her tears and apologized, but Li Fengchang didn't say anything. They were not his children and he couldn't discipline them.
Li Minghua neither cried nor made trouble: "Li Minglou doesn't care, why should I care?"
Mrs. Li was so angry that she couldn't even breathe. Li Fengchang hurriedly stepped forward to pat her. When the girls and servants heard the call, they also rushed in, bringing tea, water and medicine to the chaos.
Mrs. Lin grabbed Li Minghua out and said, "Mom, I will teach this girl a lesson. Don't pay attention to her. Raise her up with good food and drink. There is no reason for her to be angry to death."
Not daring to stay any longer, he escorted Li Minghua away.
Mrs. Li regained her breath and cried on the bed: "What sin have I done?"
She didn't mention Li Minglou. She had just praised her granddaughter for being sensible.
Mrs. Li raised her hand and slapped herself.
The maids and servants were so frightened that they cried and tried to persuade her. Li Fengchang half-knelt beside the bed and took Mrs. Li's hand: "This is because I am incompetent, and my mother wants to beat me."
Speaking of her son, Mrs. Li cried again to Li Fengan: "How would you be today if you were alive?"
Li Fengchang needed some persuasion to appease him.
"Mom, don't blame Minghua." He said, "She is only two years older than Minglou. She has never left home before, so she was shocked when she was suddenly asked to go to Taiyuan Mansion."
A girl carefully brought a bowl of white fungus porridge over, and Li Fengchang took it and wanted to feed it himself.
Mrs. Li was amused by him: "I'm not old enough to let you serve me like this."
Li Fengchang hurriedly helped her sit up and watched Mrs. Li eat slowly: "The fourth younger brother and sister will persuade her, tell her slowly."
"How can we have time to wait slowly now?" Mrs. Li sighed and took a few mouthfuls of white fungus porridge.
The white fungus porridge is sweet and soft in the mouth, which makes the throat that is angry and crying a lot more comfortable.
Mrs. Li has always been a kind and generous person, always praising the people around her anytime, anywhere.
She looked at the girl standing in front of her and nodded: "Well done, reward."
The girl thanked her happily, then stood up but said timidly: "Old madam, Miss Qi made this. I asked my maid to bring it in."
Li Mingqi?
Mrs. Li looked at the porridge in her hand and didn't care about Li Mingqi's bribery of her girl. She saw all the little tricks of the daughters-in-law, granddaughters and granddaughter-in-law at home, especially Li Mingqi.
she.
"Let her in," she said.
The girl happily went to deliver the message. Li Mingqi did not come in directly. She first stretched out two fingers to lift the door curtain, revealing her little face and looking in.
Mrs. Li glared at her: "What's wrong with you?"
Li Mingqi: "Is grandma still angry?"
Mrs. Li ignored her. Li Mingqi walked in and saluted Li Fengchang. Li Fengchang nodded: "Your grandmother is not happy, please talk to her."
Mrs. Li said: "If they don't talk to me less, I will thank God that I can live for a few more years."
Li Mingqi smiled and sat beside the bed: "Grandma, don't be angry. If Minghua doesn't do anything, I will do it."
Mrs. Li and Li Fengchang didn't react for a while and looked at her slightly startled.
"Grandma, I already know that something happened to the eldest lady," Li Mingqi said.
What happened here cannot be concealed from each house, especially now that all three houses have money, the second brother got the money from Jiannan Road, the third brother stayed at Jiannan Road, the fourth brother was domineering in the motorcade, and the wife
The children became rich and stretched out their hands at home, while Mrs. Li watched coldly.
"We need help from our sisters now." Li Mingqi didn't care about Mrs. Li's face and pointed at herself, "I'm a sister too."
Mrs. Li put down the white fungus porridge: "You are neither light nor heavy, it is not suitable."
Being commented on by her beloved grandmother, Li Mingqi did not blush and cry, but nodded: "I am not as stable as Minghua. Logically speaking, Minghua is the most suitable for this matter, but I am willing."
willing?
Mrs. Li and Li Fengchang looked at her, this time with serious expressions.
"Grandma, I think it's better to be willing than to be suitable for this kind of thing." Li Mingqi also said seriously, "If you are unwilling, no matter how suitable it is, there will be flaws. After all, people have seven emotions and six desires."
Mrs. Li sat up straight and looked at Li Mingqi with strange eyes.
Li Fengchang didn't think about anything else. He heard the words and clapped his hands: "Mingqi is right." Looking at Mrs. Li again, "So mother, you see, the children you have raised are sensible and know how to share the family's worries."
Mrs. Li did not speak, stirring the white fungus porridge with the spoon in her hand.
Li Fengchang couldn't figure it out. The women already had a new solution to the problem, so why didn't they say anything?
"Mom, forceful melons are not sweet, and we don't have time to persuade Minghua." Li Fengchang persuaded tactfully, "Mingqi is the same age as Minglou. I was originally worried that she was young, but now it seems that my Li family
Everyone has courage."
Li Mingqi nodded: "Yes, uncle, I'm not afraid." She called out to her grandmother delicately, "Grandma, don't worry or be anxious."
The good granddaughter who solves all the problems for her grandmother. Mrs. Li did not hug her and call her my good daughter as usual. She looked at her for a moment and said: "You have to know, this is a fake, temporary replacement, but
I’m not asking you to actually get married.”
This is of course, Li Fengchang is puzzled.
Li Mingqi nodded seriously: "I know, grandma."
Mrs. Li stopped talking again and lowered her eyes while stirring the white fungus porridge.
Women are really... When has this happened? If you can solve the problem, then you can solve the problem. What else do you think? Li Fengchang couldn't help but call her mother again.
"I'm not old enough to be deaf and blind." Mrs. Li glared at Li Fengchang, and then looked at Li Mingqi meaningfully.
Li Mingqi looked at her obediently.
"Well, since you are willing, then you can go." Mrs. Li said.
Li Mingqi stood up and said happily.
Li Fengchang also breathed a sigh of relief: "Then I will make arrangements. I will tell my family that Minglou is homesick, so I asked my sisters to stay with her."
No matter how ridiculous these words are to the outside world, some people believe them, no matter how thoughtful they are, some people don't believe them, it doesn't matter, there is just an explanation, Mrs. Li said indifferently.
Li Fengchang said: "I'm going to write a letter to my third brother and ask someone to invite my third brother and sister over."
Mrs. Li hummed, and Li Fengchang got up and walked out.
"You also go down, I will tell your mother." Mrs. Li said, "This is what the adults have agreed upon."
This was to help her hide her initiative to petition. Li Mingqi responded and turned to leave, then turned around suddenly, rushed over and hugged Mrs. Li, pressed her face against the old lady's rough face, and whispered in her ear.
Whisper: "Grandma, thank you."
After saying that, without saying anything more and not listening to what Mrs. Li said, she turned around and walked away quickly.
The heart that had been hardened by various conjectures before was softened by such a shock. Who can resist this little girl who is as gentle as jade, well-behaved and intelligent, and has exquisite orifices?
Mrs. Li softened, sighed softly, looked at the white fungus porridge she had put down, and reached out to pick it up.
"Actually, it's not appropriate if you want to go." The familiar maid came over and sighed, "Old Madam, you don't want to teach Miss Qi any more?"
Mrs. Li said: "Who can teach the little girls what they believe?"
When her voice paused, the small spoon stirred and hit the porcelain bowl, making a gentle sound.
Mrs. Li took in a breath slowly, and then breathed it out slowly.
"In the future, it wouldn't be a bad thing to have multiple sisters as companions over there."
Li Minglou is not as close to her as Li Mingqi.
Jiangling Mansion is close, but Jiannan Road is far away.
When the letter arrived at Jiangling Mansion, it went from Jiangling Mansion to Jiannan Road. Xiang Yun in Jiannan Road received two letters at the same time, one from Xiang Jiuding and one from Li Fengchang.
Xiang Yun read it in silence, with no surprise on his face, only a wry smile, and the expected shoe finally landed.
The attendant next to him brought the brazier. Xiang Yun picked up the two letters but did not put them in. Instead, he stood up and walked out.
The attendant didn't understand and called "Sir".
Xiang Yun said: "I'm going to see Yan Mao."
When Xiang Yun came over, Yan Mao was handling official affairs in the Governor's Mansion, Li Mingyu was still studying, and Han Xu had not yet arrived, so he was fully responsible for many affairs in Jiannan Road.
Seeing Xiang Yun coming, Yan Mao stood up to greet him.
Xiang Yun got straight to the point: "Something happened over there, Miss."
Yan Mao looked surprised, but he smiled in his heart. Yuan Ji didn't know what he was thinking. He didn't want to tell Xiang Yun about this matter. He wanted to see if Xiang Yun would tell him.
