Hearing that her dead husband had suddenly returned alive, Mrs.
Li Yan fainted in fright.Fortunately, the old housekeeper who came to pick up the clothes in person said that the second master didn't want to see the second lady and the girls for the time being, so he only asked him to take a set of clothes he wore before and go back to change.Mrs.
Li Yan hurriedly asked her confidant to take the men's robes, middle clothes, ornaments, etc., which were sealed in a large box, and put them in a small wooden box for the old housekeeper to take away.Her husband should have been happy to come back alive, but Mrs.
Li Yan hugged the quilt and cried.She has been worrying day and night lately, and she always feels that the dream of her husband turning into a ghost to find her is too real, and she keeps telling herself that she thinks too much.Now that the person has returned safe and sound, what reason does she have to deceive herself?
The confidant eldest girl saw Mrs.
Li Yan's panic, persuaded her not to be anxious, and hinted: "Don't worry, madam, the second master didn't go back to the house but went to the Zhongzheng Mansion to see the patriarch, it can be seen that the second master doesn't want to break off the relationship with his wife."
Instead of sitting at home and waiting for him to come to find him, it is better to send the two girls to get close to each other and find out what the second master thinks. ”Madame Li Yan trembled as if she was threatened with death, and fear had made her lose her grace, and she curled up in the arms of the big maid and wept fearfully.The eldest girl sighed lightly, hugged Mrs.
Li Yan tightly, and persuaded: "Madam, as the saying goes, only by knowing oneself and knowing the other party can one not be defeated in a hundred battles."
It's useless for you to be afraid at home, it's better to think of a countermeasure before the second master comes back to collect debts.No matter what, you can protect yourself first before you can protect the two girls. ”Women are weak, but mothers are strong.Thinking of her two daughters, Mrs.
Li Yan instantly became full of fighting spirit, clenched her fists and fought desperately to the end.stood up and walked to the east ear room where he was bathing, and instructed the big girl to follow step by step."
I want to bathe and change clothes, and take the second master's favorite champion red to go to Zhongzheng Mansion with me.""
Madam, the second master refuses to let you go to see him, if you insist on going, I'm afraid you will ......"
"Today is a good day, my husband is back, how can I avoid it."
Mrs.
Li Yan had already walked into the east ear room, gently closed the small carved door, leaned her back against the door and wept silently, and the hatred, anger, and grievances in her heart were quietly swallowed.The eldest girl had no choice but to follow Mrs.
Li Yan's instructions to go to Anpai.At this moment, there was a joyful and joyful atmosphere in the Li family's Zhongzheng Mansion, and the Li patriarch sent the servants to the West Mansion and the North Mansion to invite the third and fourth masters of Li to gather.He guessed that nothing good would happen to the second brother when he came back alive, and maybe he would turn his face to collect debts and even deny his own brother.Instead of bearing the fire of anger alone, it is better to bring the two younger brothers together.With a small abacus in his heart, the Li patriarch led the second master of Li after bathing and changing clothes to a place with a unique scenery in the garden, Qiufeng Residence.This autumn maple residence is as beautiful as a mountain fairyland at this time, the maple leaves are golden and fiery red, and the rose powder of several begonias is embellished among them.Chrysanthemums everywhere are better than Kao peonies, swaying in the autumn wind.Li Erye is no stranger to Qiu Fengju, when he was a child, his father was the head of the family, he was born and grew up in this mansion, until his father died after the eldest brother inherited the position of patriarch, he married his wife and moved to Nanfu to live, and since then he has become a guest of this familiar mansion.Autumn Fengju is his favorite place, and it was given to him to study when his father was alive.Come early every morning, go to dusk every night, and spend time here for twenty-one cold and summer months, reading all the ancient and modern scriptures, and appreciating all the famous paintings in the world.Qiu Fengju is no longer a familiar decoration of Second Master Li.The small dwelling in this garden has been turned into a place where the Li patriarch drinks and entertains guests on weekdays, and there is no trace of a young man plowing and reading day and night.Second Master Li was stunned, and followed the Li patriarch into the small residence in a dull manner, sitting in his favorite position, east.The east is the head, and that is the position of the Li patriarch.But Second Master Li sat down without asking, Patriarch Li was unhappy but speechless, and sat on the left side of Second Master Li at will.This is the position of Second Master Li.The position of the brother and the younger brother is wrong, and the affection is gone, and what remains is resentment and vigilance, hatred and apprehension."
Big brother, I heard that the second brother came back from the dead, is it true?"
Li Sanye came with two pots of wine, and entered before entering the door.Li Siye, who also rushed to hear the news, was silent, and followed behind Li Sanye step by step.He was empty-handed and didn't bring any gifts, and when he saw Second Master Li sitting on the throne, his eyes instantly turned red.Li Sanye put two pots of wine on the table, bowed his waist behind his hands, and approached Li Erye, who was sitting in danger.The bun tied up from the top of the head, the full forehead, the eyebrows are slightly frowned, the pupils are bright, the bridge of the nose is straight, and the lips are straight like threads......
"Well, it's my second brother, that's right." ”Li Sanye nodded, reached out and grabbed the fist that Li Erye put on the table casually, and shouted in surprise: "It's hot!"
It's hot!
”"What nonsense?
The second brother is a living person, not a ghost, of course it is hot. ”Patriarch Li glared, raised his leg and kicked the third master of Li, and scolded with a smile: "No serious bastard, don't hurry up and ask your second brother for peace." ”"Huh?
Hello, please?
”Li Sanye was stunned for a moment, and in a trance he thought that he was rude, so he hurriedly bowed and saluted, "The second brother returned home safely, the whole family is reunited, and the younger brother is deeply pleased." ”Second Master Li stretched out his hand to help him, and said with a light smile: "We are brothers, so this kind of false courtesy will be exempted."
Hurry up and sit down. ”"Second Brother Xie."
Third Master Li happily chose to sit next to the patriarch of Li, turned his head to see Fourth Master Li, who was silent, and said, "Fourth brother, what are you thinking about standing there like a stuffy gourd?"
Aren't you happy that our second brother is coming home?
Why don't you come over and say goodbye, it's not that children don't know the rules!
”"You always treat him as a child, and his daughters can embroider."
Patriarch Li joked that it alleviated the embarrassment of Fourth Master Li.Second Master Li looked at his fourth brother with a faint smile.These four brothers are the old sons of their father, and they are the ones he personally taught to read and learn characters.Even such major matters as marrying a daughter-in-law were also handled by him himself, and now the fourth brother can be married and beautiful, and his children are good, which is also his responsibility to be a brother.Fourth Master Li lowered his head and slowly walked behind the Li patriarch, and said sullenly: "What about the second brother coming back, a dead man who has been buried in the grave, is he still the master of the Li family's Nanfu when he comes back?"
Impossible. ”"Fourth, are you stupid to read?"
Li Sanye slapped the table and scolded, eager to pull Li Siye's ears and slap him a few times.Fourth Master Li turned his head resentfully and quietly glared at Second Master Li, and said coldly: "I only recognize the second brother buried in the cemetery of the Li clan, the man sitting here......
Hum!
I don't know!
”"Yo ho?
It's against you!
”Third Master Li was so angry that he rolled up his sleeves and said angrily to Patriarch Li: "Big brother, don't stop me, I'm going to wake him up today!"
”Fourth Master Li suddenly raised his head and roared angrily: "The second brother is dead, and he was forced to die by you."
If you want to beat me, I will beat me, I will never allow this fake person to occupy Nanfu and occupy the house belonging to my second brother!
”"It's against you!
I ......"
Li Sanye raised his fist and was about to fight, but was grasped by Patriarch Li."
The third!
Stop it!
”() Glory to the end
