Li Siye stood up and followed him out into the yard. Zhang Lu suddenly saw Li Siye and immediately crossed his arms and grinned happily: "It turns out that Li Qianniu is back!" He quickly slapped his cheek lightly with his palm: "Look
What a mouthful! Four years ago you went to Anxi, and now that you have returned home, you should be called Lieutenant Li or General Li."
Li Siye cupped his hand and smiled. Suddenly he remembered something and asked him quickly: "Zhang Lu, are you still working as a charlatan now? I want to find the original owner of this yard through you."
Zhang Lu didn't understand what he meant and said with a smile: "You want to cancel the lease, right? You don't need to go to the original owner to cancel the lease, you can just go to me."
"No, I want to buy this yard."
Zhang Lu was surprised, turned around and followed Zhang Xiaojing out with his hands folded, while saying to Li Siye: "In that case, I will come back to you when I have free time, and we will talk in detail later!"
Li Siye and Yan Xiaosi continued to go back to the main hall to drink. Seeing that it was getting late, Wen Ran also stood up to say goodbye. Mei'er tugged on Wen Ran's sleeve, looking a little reluctant to leave. At first, Li Siye was arranged by the emperor with the help of Li Heng.
After moving to Anxi, Mei'er often brought Wen Ran to his home, and they often slept together at night. Although Zhang Xiaojing and Gao Shi were also entrusted by Li Siye to take care of Li Mei'er, they were not the owners of this place after all, and they were hindered by men and women. This home was full of women.
My maidservant, I only allow myself to come here during the day, but I am determined not to stay at night.
"Sister Wenran, would you like to stay and sleep tonight?"
Wen Ran's cheeks were slightly red, and he gently broke away from her hand and whispered: "If it were in the past, I would naturally not be happy, but today your brother has returned from Anxi, and I am not suitable to live here."
"What's the trouble? My brother is an easy-going person. If he knew that you were willing to stay overnight, he would be very happy, don't you think so, brother?"
Li Siye could only smile awkwardly, but did not actively agree. If it were a thousand years later, he might be stupid and warmly invite him to stay, but this is the Tang Dynasty after all. Even if it is the most open era of feudal society, some etiquette and customs are still
To be observed.
"No, Mei'er, it's not your brother's decision. There are men in your family. As a woman, I cannot stay here."
Li Meier wanted to complain again, so Li Siye said: "Since Wen Ran refuses to stay, don't be too pushy. Just wait until you learn your homework tomorrow and then go find her."
No matter how reluctant Li Mei'er was, she could only let Wen Ran go. She and her brother sent her out of Xinchangfang and across a few streets before watching her leave. The brother and sister walked along the city under the sunset.
Looking back across the street, the drum towers of each street were overlooked above their heads.
At this moment, there were only two siblings left. It was rare for Li Meier to be alone with her brother, and it was rare for her expression to become serious.
"Brother, you are already twenty-four this year."
"Um."
"You are now a sixth-grade Colonel Zhaowu."
"Um."
"If you don't return home when you are rich and don't pay homage to your parents, isn't this against filial piety?"
Li Siye was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and asked his sister: "Is this what Mr. Gao taught you?"
Li Mei'er nodded seriously: "Sir, he does teach you something on a daily basis, but this principle is something Mei'er has mastered. Mei'er knows that his brother wants to say that he is still just a captain of Zhima University, and returning to his hometown to show off like this may make people laugh. But.
, Having no wife or talent is the greatest form of unfilial piety. Now that you are twenty-four years old, you still have not married a wife. If your parents knew better, they could still sleep peacefully. Would they..."
"Yes," Li Siye hurriedly shook his head and said, "You are a little girl, but you are still taking care of your brother's affairs. Although it makes sense, I have joined the Anxi frontier and have no time to arrange a marriage. You think I want to get married?
, I have to have someone marry me. This matter is destined by fate, so don’t force it too much."
Li Meier's mouth suddenly showed a smile as if she had succeeded in a little trick. She put her hands behind her back and said leisurely: "Brother, do you know a Lady Li Twelve?"
"Who!?" Li Siye opened his mouth in shock.
As soon as she saw Li Siye's expression, she knew that everything Li Siye said was true. There must be something fishy between the two of them, but it was a pity that her brother didn't know how to cherish it and wanted to let this marriage go in vain.
"How is it possible? How could she find you?"
Li Meier spread her hands innocently: "Li Twelve Niang came to Chang'an with her master, and specifically found out our address in Xinchangfang from others. Brother, Twelve Niang came to visit in person. At that time, her mentor Mr. Gao also
Now, she just came to sit at home for a while. She said that she was an old acquaintance with you in Anxi and came to visit you. We didn't understand what she meant at the time. It was only after she left that Mr. Gao revealed it. Mr. Gao also said
Praise her for daring to ask for marriage, she is really a wonderful woman."
Li Siye broke out in a cold sweat after hearing this. Sure enough, he came to his door. He was not mentally ready for marriage. When he was a kickboxer in his previous life, he was already thirty years old and still had no idea of getting married. He just had sex with the opposite sex.
He couldn't even imagine that the woman would have a lot of relationships with relatives and friends after marriage, and would need to pay New Year's greetings to maintain the family relationship. Hey, it was scary just thinking about it.
"Well, this matter needs long-term consideration."
"How can you make a long-term plan? People are coming to your door. Even the old maids at home said that it is self-contempt for a woman to ask questions on such a matter. They suspect that these twelve mothers may have someone.
There is something wrong with her in some aspects, maybe her brain, but I have talked with her and I think she is quite normal."
Li Twelve Niang is so persistent, what happened to her? What is Li Siye's specialty that makes her willing to put down her body to come to him.
He thought about it carefully, and since this kind of thing came to his door, he definitely couldn't avoid it. Regardless of whether he wanted to or not, he had to deal with it himself.
"Let's go." He put his arms around Li Mei'er's shoulders and said, "Why are you so anxious to find a sister-in-law for yourself? If I meet a woman who is not a virtuous and virtuous woman, aren't you afraid that she will bully you, my sister-in-law?"
Li Mei'er put her hands on her side and said with a dignified manner: "Brother, please don't worry, even if she likes to mess around, I will try my best to let her. As long as she can continue our family's lineage, she will be the biggest contributor, Mei'er accepts
A little grievance means nothing."
"Okay, stop talking."
Li Siye felt a little resentful towards Gao Shi, and he thought that you, Gao Shi, should teach her poetry to cultivate her sentiments, but you actually taught me a feudal female Taoist priest!
In a thatched house with wooden walls by the Qishui River, the scholar Gao Shi had just put down his hoe and reached out to pick up the book. Suddenly, he sneezed twice in succession like a thunder! The water mist sprayed from his mouth and nose made the pages of the book wet.
…
The brother and sister returned home. Fortunately, Mei'er's child still had a good temper and had forgotten what happened just now. Li Siye also felt a lot more relaxed. It was best to put aside some worrying things temporarily.
He arranged for Yan Xiaosi to rest in the east wing of the inner courtyard, the two old maids lived in the east and west wings of the outer courtyard, and he and his sister slept in the two small rooms on the left and right sides of the main hall.
But on the first night when his brother came back, Mei'er wanted to sleep with Li Siye. Recalling the past, the two of them lay on the mat under the summer night breeze, with their heads on their arms, and they stayed up most of the night.
Looking for those bad bugs that are not spring silkworms in the cracks, the current situation is just a girl's reminiscence of the past time.
She put one leg on Li Siye's belly, raised her hand to pull up the bamboo curtain of the window, looked at the shadowy tree crown and the higher starry sky, and said regretfully: "It's too dark, I can't see anything."
Two old maids walked out of the hut in the southeast corner of the yard and saw the brother and sister laying on the floor with the door and windows open. They whispered to each other: "After all, it was my mother who left early. No matter how well the male teacher taught me, she is still a child."
Men, how do you know what women should learn and how they should learn the differences between men and women? How can a young lady who will have haircut next year still sleep with her brother like a young girl?"
