Fortunate Wife

Episode 16 Gossip

After listening to Li Man's words, Mrs. Zhang's expression softened a little, she looked at Li Hua with a smile, and said, "I know what he's thinking, it's really reluctant."

Li Hua did not deny it either, and took out a pair of golden locks from the small box, and handed them to Li Manqi.

Li Man picked up the golden lock, put it in the palm of his hand and looked at it carefully. He felt that the unicorn pattern carved on it was particularly beautiful, and the auspicious words of long life and longevity were engraved on the back, which was very pleasing.

"Come on, put it on our baby." Li Man picked up the boss, and then gently put one of the golden locks around her neck.

Li Hua picked up another one and put it around the neck of the second child.

"Look, how beautiful." Li Man said with a smile, and Li Hua was also smiling.

Mrs. Zhang also nodded, "That's right. Well, I'll take this bracelet first, and I'll give it to my great-grandson and great-granddaughter when they grow up."

"Well," Li Man helped the old lady put the bracelet on.

Li Hua then and Li Xiangcao started to hold each other and feed the children.

Man Er accompanied the old lady to talk again, mainly talking about the marriage between Zhang Jing and Miss Mei's family.

Li Man has never seen that Miss Mei family, but from what the old lady said, she can tell that she likes this Miss Mei family very much. She looks gentle and elegant, with the wildest disposition. In the past two years, she has gotten older and her health is not good, so he has restrained himself a little and is willing to spend more time with her at home. A few years ago, he would run outside when he had nothing to do. , I don't know what to walk, which makes the old lady very worried.

Now, she is counting on having a virtuous and capable Miss Mei who will not only support the family, but also calm down Zhang Jing's mind after she gets married.

However, the most important thing is that the old lady said that next year, she must have a great-grandson again.

The three generations of the Zhang family were single, if Zhang Jing had a child, even if she passed away one day in the future, she would be able to rest in peace.

Li Man felt that the old lady became pessimistic as she spoke, so she quickly comforted her a lot, which made her feel better.

Let's talk downstairs.

In fact, the brothers of the Li family didn't like Zhang Jing at first because Mrs. Zhang wanted Li Man to be her grandson-in-law. Later, they rejected him because he was too good-looking to be thrown away. Regardless of his family background, this appearance alone is the bane of being able to seduce women.

Now, everyone is still wary of him, but based on etiquette, they didn't act excessively towards him.

It's just that several big men were sitting in the living room, but they didn't have a common topic to talk about, so there were several silences.

When Xiao Wuduan came for the snacks, he was stunned to see these men who seemed to be in a cold war.

"Brother, my aunt sent it." He put the snacks on the table.

Li Mo greeted Zhang Jing, "Young Master Zhang, have some snacks."

"Oh, I'm not hungry, thank you." Zhang Jing politely refused, and then finally raised the topic, "Sister Man'er is upstairs? I haven't seen you for a long time, and I don't know what happened. I think..."

"She is fine now. The old lady has gone up to visit, Mr. Zhang can sit down and drink tea with peace of mind." Li Yan also politely rejected his request, and asked Xiao Wu, "Is the water ready? Give it to Zhang quickly." Master pour tea."

Zhang Jing wasn't embarrassed by being rejected, he just smiled slightly, "You're welcome."

"It should." Li Yan said with a smile.

Afterwards, everyone was silent again, just waiting for Xiao Wu to bring the brewed tea.

Fortunately, Steward Zhang brought a lot of people, and in less than an hour, several tables were set up, and the materials were all ready-made brought by them.

Li Xiangyu watched, feeling very warm in his heart, and couldn't help giving this family a thumbs up.

He is really dignified and appropriate in handling affairs. There are so many people here, afraid that the Li family will be in a hurry, they have prepared all the preparations in advance.

So, the men had a table in the living room, and upstairs, the old lady and Li Man and Li Xiangcao had a few small tables. In addition, Butler Zhang led a group of servants and maids, just casually in the kitchen.

After the meal, Mrs. Zhang talked to Li Man again, but she was afraid of disturbing Li Man's mind, so she hurried to leave, saying yes, she would come back when the sky cleared.

Li Man knew that the mountain road was not easy to walk, and he was afraid that it would be too late and it would be inconvenient for them to go back, so he agreed and let Li Mo and others take care of him.

After seeing off the Zhang family, Li Xiangcao took the child downstairs to sleep.

Li Man also yawned, strange to say, after sleeping all day, she still felt like she didn't get enough sleep.

Li Hua sat down and helped her rub her shoulders, "I'm tired after sitting for a long time, you lie down, and I'll give you a waist squeeze."

"No need, I'm just a little sleepy and want to sleep." Li Man shrank into the bed as she spoke.

Li Hua tucked the quilt up for her. Just as she was about to leave, Li Man suddenly grabbed his wrist and asked with a narrow smile, "Tell me, in front of grandma today, why did it suddenly happen like that? You saw it too." , grandma's face changed at that time, and she couldn't get off the stage. Are you really reluctant to part with your own child? Hehe, but, you are really, people just said that, the future is still early, your daughter may not marry her , her daughter may not marry into our family."

Li Hua also felt a bit embarrassed, sat down on the side of the bed, and explained to Li Man seriously, "Man'er, that's not right."

"Ah?" Li Man just said that casually, but unexpectedly, he became extraordinarily serious, making her slightly taken aback, "What's wrong?"

"The matter of in-laws is not a child's play. Today, the old lady's bracelet

If you keep it, it will be regarded as a token. In the future, whether the child is willing or not, he will have to agree to this marriage. It's so unfair to the kids. "Li Hua said.

Li Man was stunned when he heard that, "Are you serious? If the children don't mean it, then let it go. But when the adults are joking when they are happy, if you take it seriously, it is true. If you think it is inappropriate, then treat it as a joke. "

"How can this be a joke? If it's decided, it's fine if the children are willing in the future. If they don't want to, they have to unsubscribe, which will affect the reputation of the children." Fortunately, it's not the first time I know Li Man, and I know her The things in her mind are different from ordinary people, otherwise, Li Hua would really blame her for playing with the children's future.

Naturally, although he didn't mean to blame in what he said, Li Man was shocked when he heard it.

Oh, she forgot, this is a conservative ancient time.

In modern times, when a family has a new child, relatives and friends go to visit, and some of them like children, and they will tell jokes that they will be my son-in-law or daughter-in-law in the future. Those who are interested in your children, as parents, will benefit from listening to those words.

Naturally, today, when Mrs. Zhang saw the two children, her expression of love was not fake, nor was her desire to be married.

Li Man's first feeling was that her treasures are so nice. Look, people will miss them at a glance, but they didn't realize at all that the ancient times were all about honesty, not to mention the bracelet that the old lady wants to keep today. Just what the two of them said verbally might become an excuse for others to think about it in the future.

Sweaty wow.

It's not that I think the Zhang family is bad, but that it's hard to talk about the relationship. If the children of the other family don't like their own family, or if a pair of children in their own family have their own happiness, then it will be difficult for both parties to explain.

"Li Hua, you are still thoughtful." Li Man said seriously.

Li Hua gently stroked her face, "Okay, from now on, no matter who mentions these words to you, you can't easily answer them."

"Well, I got it." Li Man nodded hurriedly, secretly sweating in shock, darling, she almost sold her treasures out of complacency.

Seeing that she was obedient and well-behaved, Li Hua smiled, "Okay, then you can sleep well."

"Why are you going?" Li Man grabbed his wrist, not letting go.

Li Hua looked at her amusedly, "Want me to accompany you?"

"Yeah." Li Man nodded, she was spoiled by their brothers now, even if she was sleeping, she had to be accompanied by someone, otherwise, she would not be able to sleep at all.

Li Hua held her little hand in the palm of his backhand, and leaned against the head of the bed, looking down at her, "I'll just lean here, you go to sleep, and I'll leave when you fall asleep."

"Why are you going?" Just leave when you fall asleep? Li Man was very dissatisfied.

Li Hua smiled, "The old lady came this time and brought a lot of presents. I'll go down and count them later, and then I'll make a list of gifts. Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, I will return the gifts with my elder brother."

"Oh, that's what it should be." Li Man nodded, "Well, you can go when I fall asleep."

"Um."

What they didn't know was that as soon as the Zhang family left, people watching the excitement in the village entered the Li family's yard one after another, wanting to take a look at the gifts they brought.

Li Xiangyu had no choice but to lock Li Mo's room, and then rudely kicked him out.

But even so, there were still a lot of gossip in the village.

The main point of the gossip is that the Zhang family brought more than a dozen boxes of gold and silver treasures to the Li family for the sake of the Li family's sons and daughters.

It is said that the pair of children belonged to the Zhang family. Li Man used to be a maid of the Zhang family, and had a secret relationship with the Zhang family's young master very early on. Later, when Mrs. Zhang found out about it, she kicked Li Man out.

Later, when Li Man fell into the Li family, he made it easier for the Li family brothers.

Now, after learning that Li Man gave birth to a pair of twins, the Zhang family would not let their children go home, so they brought enough money to come here to change.
