It got dark not long after we got home. After the family had dinner, they sat together and chatted for a while before falling asleep.
That night Li Qinzai slept with Cui Jie. Cui Jie's belly was getting bigger and bigger, and she couldn't even lie down on her back when sleeping. She could only sleep on her side holding her belly with difficulty.
During this special period, the old women and maids in the mansion were extremely nervous. There were people taking turns watching outside the house in the middle of the night, for fear that Cui Jie would suddenly have an attack.
The production equipment in the house is also fully prepared and can be used at any time.
In this era when medical care is scarce, even if a woman from a wealthy family gives birth, she has to go through hell.
Li Qinzai didn't dare to be careless. A slight negligence could cost two lives, and he couldn't afford it.
Cui Jie didn't sleep well, and Li Qinzai didn't sleep well either. He was lost in the lake all night. His body was tired, but his spirit was tense. When Cui Jie next to him made the slightest movement, he woke up involuntarily.
Early the next morning, Cui Jie finally fell asleep, but Li Qinzai could only appear in the school with panda eyes.
People who don't sleep well will certainly not have a better temper.
The disciples, who had not seen their teacher for several days, saw Li Qinzai walking into the classroom, and planned to give him a warm welcome. However, when Li Qinzai stepped into the classroom, everyone saw his unhappy creditor face, and they suddenly became silent and did not dare to breathe.
Teachers and students have been getting along for several years, and they understand each other well. They at least know how to look at their faces, and know that they must not provoke the husband easily at this time, otherwise disaster will be imminent.
The disciples were well-behaved, but Li Qinzai was unhappy again.
If you don't do something, how can I have an excuse to whip you?
"Come on, be happy, be pretentious..." Li Qinzai stared at them expectantly: "Young people should be energetic and wild. If you don't have energy, can you still be called young people? Who can act wild and let me see you? of vitality."
The classroom was silent, no one dared to say anything.
It was obvious that Li Qinzai had already been seen through by them and knew that he was setting a trap for them.
Even Wu Minzhi, the crazy critic, was sitting upright at this moment, silent and motionless.
After waiting for a long time and getting no response, Li Qinzai sighed in disappointment.
The whip that was about to move on the podium was quietly put away by him.
The little bastards all looked lucky to have survived the disaster. If this were in a TV series, they who were just running around would be lucky enough to survive one episode.
"The scientific examination is about to begin. In order to avoid suspicion, we will only review today and not teach new content. Several people in our school have already participated in the scientific examination. If you are fine, please don't disturb them." Li Qinzai opened the textbook as he spoke.
The two classes were uneventful. Li Qinzai got along particularly well with the little bastards. In the face of Li Qinzai's provocations from time to time, the little bastards kept the word "forbearance" throughout, and finally did not let Li Qinzai succeed.
After class, Li Qinzai was about to go home with his books under his arm, when Wu Minzhi followed him.
Li Qinzai smiled and said, "Thank you for your help this time. Thank you very much."
There is a saying, although Wu Minzhi is a crazy guy, he really helped this time.
At the court meeting that day, the eunuch handed Li Zhi a confession about Li Youdao. It is said that it was Wu Minzhi who sent it to the palace. The timing was perfect and he helped Li Qinzai reverse the decline of the court meeting in one fell swoop.
Wu Minzhi smiled and said: "If something happens, I will do my best. If there is anyone you don't like, sir, just tell me and I will take the time to deal with him."
Li Qinzai shook his head hastily. This guy was so domineering in Chang'an City, but he was not beaten to death. A person with a relative of the queen could indeed walk sideways in Chang'an City. Li Qinzai could not reach this level back then.
"I'm curious about something. How did you force Li Youdao to sign that confession?" Li Qinzai asked.
Wu Minzhi blinked innocently: "Li Youdao was so distressed after seeing his disciple that he knelt in front of me and cried bitterly and repented. He slapped himself repeatedly and took the initiative to write a confession without saying a word...perhaps he was shocked by his disciple's righteous temperament. Bar."
Li Qinzai subconsciously reached out his hand and slapped him hard on the back of the head.
I am the ancestor of nonsense. When did I show you?
Wu Minzhi covered his head and seemed to enjoy the blow. He narrowed his eyes and smiled and said: "Anyway, Li Youdao is dead, and the Li family of Zhao County is also unlucky. Sir, you have achieved your goal, so why worry about the process."
"There's one more thing I'm curious about...why do you always like to ask others to sign documents? You forced Prince Teng to sign a marriage contract, and now you force Li Youdao to sign a confession. Do you attach great importance to contracts?"
Wu Minzhi opened his eyes wide and said: "Of course I care. Nowadays, etiquette has collapsed, morals have declined, and there are too many people who don't keep their words. If you don't sign the contract in black and white, how can you make me believe it?"
Li Qinzai was shocked, he was actually a very strict critic...
"Have you ever thought that things signed by others are forced. Seriously, you are the one with the lowest moral standards."
Wu Minzhi smiled: "Who saw it? Who has evidence? The process is not important, the result is important."
Li Qinzai laughed. This guy was a little crazy, but his personality was quite to his liking.
Wu Minzhi saw that Li Qinzai seemed to be in a good mood at the moment, so he cautiously said: "Sir, I have something to ask of you."
"If you don't agree, shut up." Li Qinzai's answer was decisive.
Wu Minzhi couldn't help but said after a while: "Sir, do you like money?"
Li Qinzai was stunned, and his expression suddenly melted. He patted his shoulder and said softly: "I spoke a bit loudly just now. I'm sorry, but don't take it to heart. I would like to hear the details."
Wu Minzhi's cheeks twitched and said: "The disciple's mother and sister heard about the pleasant scenery of Ganjing Village and heard that Mr.'s cooking skills are unparalleled in the world. They want to come to the village to stay for a few days..."
"I don't dare to overwork my husband, so I would like to offer you some money to express my filial piety..."
Li Qinzai stared at him with burning eyes: "How much is 'a number'?"
Wu Minzhi hesitated and said: "One hundred strings?"
"My dear sister, such a noble person, is only worth a hundred coins in your eyes?"
Wu Minzhi immediately changed his words: "Two hundred strings!"
"Deal!" Li Qinzai smiled happily.
It was only after I laughed that I realized that Wu Minzhi’s mother and sister were not Mrs. Korea and Mrs. Wei? Isn't it a bit inappropriate for a mother and daughter who don't know Li Zhi to come to their own village to have farmhouse fun?
It would be unlucky for the three of them to mess around in their noble and upright courtyard and be found by Li Zhi.
Just as he was about to regret his refusal, Wu Minzhi was overjoyed and said, "Thank you very much, sir. I will send you two hundred strings tomorrow."
Li Qinzai was silent for a moment and let out a long sigh.
Recently, he had to raise money for the Tengwang Pavilion project. The amount was too large and it was difficult to use the money from the Duke's office. He was looking for ways everywhere.
It’s not that I’m not firm, it’s that others have given me too much.
