Li Wan hasn't been to Feng Mansion for a while.
It's not that she doesn't want to have sex at the knees of her parents, it's just that too many things have happened in Rong Mansion recently.
After Yuanchun became the Queen Mother, the Rong Mansion looked very beautiful on the outside, but inside it was already in a state of poverty and could hardly support the scene.
Now, because of Jia She and his son, they were ransacked again, and the family was even more in a mess.
Fortunately, the 50,000 taels of new banknotes sent by Feng Yibo temporarily solved the urgent need of the Rong Mansion.
Li Wan finally managed to deal with it, but he still had to deal with family affairs, and also had to take care of Jia Lan and his sisters-in-law, so he really couldn't get away from it.
Today is a rare opportunity, so I wanted to come out and get some fresh air.
At this time, she was chatting with Li Mengshi, Aunt Li and her daughter.
While talking, Li Mengshi asked:
"I heard from your father that things are not going well in Rong Mansion recently. How are you doing there?"
Li Shouzhong mentioned it to her, and she had been worried about it.
It's just that something happened at Rong Mansion, and it's not convenient for her to come, lest she look like she was there to watch a joke.
My daughter is here today, so naturally I have to ask.
"It's pretty passable."
After hearing this, Li Wan hesitated for a moment and then said:
"Affected by the Dafang incident, the entire front yard of Rong Mansion was ransacked. Fortunately, the Grand View Garden behind it was the Queen Mother's provincial villa. No one dared to touch it, so all the female papers in the mansion were moved there, and some All the important things were sent ahead of time.”
When Li Mengshi and Aunt Li heard this, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the Rong Mansion was raided, it was still the Queen Mother's family that still had dignity.
"Coupled with Yibo's help, I only lost my title and dignity this time, and my life is pretty good. I came here today. In addition to visiting the two elders, I also gave the troupe in the house to thank Yibo for his help. I'll tell you later I still have to go see Yibo’s wife and convey Rongfu’s gratitude in person.”
After hearing what Li Wan said, Feng Yibo came to help.
Li Mengshi's first reaction was to help his daughter for the sake of the old couple.
So Li Mengshi smiled proudly and said:
"It's right for the Yibo Gang to take advantage of you. I'll thank him for you later."
When Li Wan heard this, he knew that his mother had misunderstood. He shook his head quickly and said:
"No! I'm representing the Rong Mansion this time. Besides, although Yibo is a family member with us, this time it's just for the sake of the Queen Mother. If you go to thank Ke, you're showing the wrong feeling. It will inevitably embarrass Yibo. .”
Feng Yibo was assigned by Yuanchun to lend a helping hand. This was the consensus of the entire Rong family.
If his mother blindly went over to express her gratitude, it would be like asking someone to lend a helping hand again.
Li Mengshi was stunned when he heard this and said doubtfully:
"Queen Mother?"
Li Wan nodded and explained:
"I heard that this time it was Yibo who advocated for these old relatives to be confiscated from their homes and removed from their posts. Anyone involved in the Shandong Unrest was doomed. It was said that Yibo was in charge of forcing the palace, and the Queen Mother had to compromise."
When she heard that Feng Yibo was the one who wanted to ransack the house and force the Queen Mother, Li Mengshi was immediately frightened and said hurriedly:
"I never ask anything about their men's affairs. If it is true, there must be a reason for it. Don't let this alienate you."
She didn't know whether it was true or false, or whether there was any misunderstanding.
She was only worried that Feng Yibo and Rong Mansion would not deal with her, which would affect her daughter's relationship with them.
Hearing this, Li Wan smiled bitterly and said:
"Don't worry, mother, it's also the fault of Dafang's lard being so blinded that he did such an outrageous thing. Although my daughter is in Rongfu, she also knows that this matter is related to the wealth of tens of millions of people in Shandong. Life, Yibo is asking for life for the people this time, and he has done nothing wrong."
The Li family has always been upright, and they can handle all matters of right and wrong.
Regardless of whether it is Li Wan or Li Mengshi, the three views are normal.
When Li Mengshi heard this, he knew that Feng Yibo was not to blame. He breathed a sigh of relief and nodded:
"Can you understand
Just white is fine. "
After asking Li Wan, she looked at her grandson Jialan again and said with some worry:
"How's Lan'er doing lately? She's not affected at all, right?"
Jia Lan is the direct grandson of the second wife of the Rong Mansion. He and the Rong Mansion are both prosperous and devastated.
If there is trouble in Rong Mansion, this grandson will naturally be affected.
"The person who ransacked the house this time was the Dafang. My father-in-law's title is still there, so it won't have much impact."
Li Wan shook his head first, then hesitated and said:
"It's just that after the house was confiscated, the house had to buy a lot of new things. I was ordered to take care of the house. I have been so busy that I can't even take care of eating. These things are okay. There are just too many things in the house and I can't take care of Lan'er. Fortunately, Lan'er is worried, but she's just worried that no one will take care of him and he will fall behind in his homework."
This is the benefit of having parents around.
If it were before, no matter what happened, she would have to endure it silently, and there would be no place to talk.
And now, although she is working hard in Rong Mansion, her parents are by her side and can come over at any time.
This not only gave me someone to rely on, but also a place to talk to.
Therefore, she was no longer like her original self, just hanging around Jialan all day long.
Today, she is no longer as dry as a leaf.
But I know how to complain and feel tired, and I dare to express my feelings.
Although Li Wan was a little sad in his words, it was much more vivid than before.
"If your husband's family agrees, you can send Lan'er to live here for a while!"
After hearing this, Li Mengshi took her hand with some distress and said:
"It's okay for us two elders to take care of you. Your father loves Lan'er very much. With him here, you don't have to worry about homework. Besides, your aunt and your two younger sisters are here to take care of you. "
Li Wan was naturally a little moved when he heard this.
Except for her father-in-law, who still valued studying, the Jia family had no learning environment at all.
Mencius's mother moved her home three times in order to study with Mencius. How could she, a mother, not want to give her children a good study environment?
But considering the relationship between Rong Mansion and this place, she inevitably hesitated and said:
"Yibo's wife is pregnant, so it's not good for Lan'er to disturb her here."
Although, today she is here to express her gratitude on behalf of Rong Mansion.
But Li Wan knew how much Jia Mu disliked Feng Yibo now.
If it weren't for Feng Yibo's repeated gifts, Rong Mansion wouldn't want to owe too many favors.
Recently, she has not dared to mention things about the Feng Mansion, for fear that Jia Mu would be dissatisfied with her.
Li Mengshi didn't know the specific reason, but thought she was really worried about Baochai, so she said:
"Yibo's wife has been sleeping in the morning and dusk for a long time. She rests in the main courtyard on weekdays and is rarely discharged from the hospital. Besides, Lan'er is so well-behaved, so why should she be worried?"
"this……"
Li Wan remained silent about Rong Mansion's dissatisfaction with Feng Yibo.
She was afraid that after her mother found out, she would not be allowed to walk here more, lest she would be upset over there.
At this time, Aunt Li, who had been silent until now, suddenly interrupted:
"Prince Magistrate, you really should listen to your mother on this matter. I was walking around the capital and heard about the reputation of the Rong Ning Mansion. Your Rong Mansion is pretty good and a respectable family, but the Ning Mansion..."
At this point, she stopped continuing.
But the implication has been revealed.
Ning Mansion's reputation in the capital is truly well-known.
Especially in the dandy circle, it is really famous.
He was good at eating, drinking, prostitution and gambling, and no one in the house was clean.
Aunt Li didn’t want to be too clear about it, so she paused and continued:
"It would be fine if you take care of me on weekdays. If you can't take care of me and someone leads you astray, what's more or less?"
Upon hearing this, Li Wan understood their worries and decided to explain a few words.
"Actually, Mr. Rongfu..."
As soon as she opened her mouth, she heard the maid outside shouting:
"Uncle and
The lady is here! "
After dealing with the troupe, Feng Yibo took Baochai to Li Shouzhong's courtyard.
Li Wan came over to give gifts, so the couple naturally had to show their faces.
Baochai happened to be in good condition today, so he came with her.
After entering the door, both parties greeted each other one by one.
"No, no, no, please, slow down, hurry up and get on the kang."
Baochai was inconvenient, so Li Meng excused her and asked her maid to help her sit up.
After Baochai sat down, Li Mengshi smiled and said to Jia Lan:
"Lan'er, look, is there a brother or a sister in my aunt's belly?"
According to legend, the child's eyes have not been corroded by pollution, and some say that the eyes of the child have not yet closed.
All in all, it is said that children can see things that adults cannot.
Therefore, in ancient times, some people would ask children to talk about the superstition of whether the child was a boy or a girl.
Even after liberation, many people still believed in this.
It is said that in some places, in order to have a boy, a child will be aborted as soon as he says he is having a girl.
This is both feudal and superstitious, the worst of the worst.
Of course, Li Mengshi just thought of this and asked casually.
Regardless of whether they are boys or girls, they are all treasures of the underpopulated Feng family.
Jia Lan glanced at Baochai's belly, then at Li Wan, and said hesitantly:
"He's...younger brother, right?"
When Baochai heard this, he immediately beamed.
Li Mengshi went over and touched Jia Lan's little head and said with satisfaction:
"Good boy!"
Everyone in the room showed kind smiles, only Feng Yibo said doubtfully:
"Lan'er, why do you think he is your younger brother?"
Jia Lan thought for a while and explained:
"I heard from my mother that my aunt hopes to give birth to a younger brother to continue the Feng family's legacy. I hope my aunt gets her wish, so I also hope it will be a boy."
Everyone was stunned, only Feng Yibo nodded suddenly and said:
"Lan'er is good, I know you are sensible, but at your age you don't need to understand the ways of the world."
When Jia Lan heard this, he frowned and said doubtfully:
"However, a gentleman never deceives his heart. I sincerely hope that my aunt and uncle can be as happy as they wish."
Only then did everyone suddenly realize.
But this time it was finally Feng Yibo's turn to be startled, but then he had to nod and said:
"Lan'er is right. My thoughts are too complicated. It's best if you can act according to your heart now."
After being in the court for a long time, when faced with the child's innocence, he actually treated it as a worldly thing.
Feng Yibo couldn't help but laugh when he thought that he was wary of a child just now.
After thinking about it, he squatted down again, patted Jialan on the shoulder, and said with a smile:
"However, as far as uncle is concerned, both boys and girls are my children. Your aunt and I will like and care for each other equally, so you don't have to care whether it's a younger brother or a younger sister, because they are all your relatives, right?"
This was said not only to Jia Lan, but also to Baochai.
Even Jia Lan knew that she wanted to have a boy, which shows how much pressure Baochai faced.
But in the belly is a boy or a girl, just like a blind box.
It sounds like the odds are 50-50, but in fact it's 100% the moment you get pregnant.
Seeing Jia Lan nodding in understanding, Feng Yibo rubbed his little head with satisfaction.
Baochai naturally understood what he meant and looked at Feng Yibo with a happy face, unable to tolerate anyone else in her eyes.
It wasn't until Feng Yibo got up that she came back to her senses!
Seeing Li Wan looking at him with a smile on his face, Baochai blushed slightly and said calmly:
"Speaking of which, I haven't thanked the troupe yet. I am physically inconvenient and cannot come to thank you. I can only ask my sister-in-law to convey my gratitude."
"Where are these words?"
Li Wan covered his mouth and chuckled, then said:
"Today I represent Rongfu, and I'm here to confront you.
I would like to express my gratitude to Bo for his help. This troupe was purchased from Jiangnan when the Queen Mother came to visit her relatives. The Queen Mother was full of praise for them. However, Rongfu is not in the mood to listen to the opera now, so I will give it to you for fun and excitement. Thank you also. Beau's helping hand. "
Feng Yibo heard this and said:
"Sister, please convey my gratitude to me. This troupe is good and we like it very much."
Seeing that the greetings between the two parties were over, Li Mengshi said impatiently:
"Yi Bo, we were talking just now that Rong Mansion has been busy lately, and your senior sister is a housekeeper, so I might not be able to take care of it. If Rong Mansion is willing, I would like to take Lan'er over and live there for a while..."
Speaking of this, Li Wan hurriedly shouted:
"Mother!"
Li Mengshi glanced at her and hesitated for a moment, but continued subconsciously:
"What do you think about this..."
Feng Yibo didn't know what riddle the two were playing, but he understood what Li Mengshi said.
After what happened to Jialan just now, he didn't want to over-analyze anymore.
Therefore, he only thought that Li Wan was a little biased, so he didn't let Li Mengshi say anything.
At that moment, he waved his hand and said cheerfully:
"Don't talk about Lan'er coming to stay for a while, even if senior sister comes here with you, there's no problem in staying here for the rest of your life!"
Everyone was startled when they heard this.
Baochai was a little confused and looked at Feng Yibo in confusion.
This guy shouldn't be that kind of person, right?
Could it be...no, no, no!
She must be pregnant, and her suspicions are getting worse!
Li Mengshi was also confused after hearing this.
However, this apprentice has always been filial, and he probably regards his daughter as his biological sister.
Um! definitely is!
The rest of the people also had different expressions.
At this moment, Li Wan's heartbeat almost stopped.
How many years?
I haven't heard such love words in many years.
No, it seems she has never heard such a promise.
She couldn't even remember Jia Zhu, let alone said any love words to her.
At this moment, Li Wan was even a little dizzy.
This is not because of love words, but because fear has taken over.
If his junior brother said such things, how could he see him in the future?
It's okay for you two to live together for the rest of your lives. What's the difference between "I'll support you"?
Feng Yibo has actually realized that his words are somewhat ambiguous, and it is easy for people to think wrongly.
But he couldn't panic at this time, otherwise everything would become a problem.
He pretended to smile helplessly before adding:
"What I mean is that this courtyard is for the retirement of my mentor and senior sister, and the place where the two elders are is the senior sister's natal family!"
