Happy Little Scholar

Of course, Li Yi was not the only one who felt relaxed. When they reached the city gate, the eleven guards quickly dismounted and ran back and forth for half a month before finally returning to the capital. Sound of Nature "Novel"

Liu Ruyi jumped off the carriage and looked at the most prosperous and prosperous city in Jingguo - there were many pedestrians outside the city gate, and there was an endless stream of carriages and horses. It was far from comparable to Qing'an Prefecture. Is this Kyoto?

Behind her, the guards looked at her with awe. Along the way, no one dared to treat her as a "weak woman". The young master really had the foresight to bring such a woman along with him.

Just when they faced dozens of bandits as if they were facing a formidable enemy, they saw swords flashing randomly and a white shadow moving among the group of bandits. In a moment, all the bandits could only lie on the ground and howl.

A powerful person can always be respected by others. Even if she is a woman, these arrogant guards are willing to lower their heads.

The old man surnamed Li ordered: "Li Zheng, send two people back to the house first to inform them of the young master's return."

After a while, two people handed their horses to their companions and galloped towards the city. Horses are not allowed to gallop in the city, but those who run will be much faster.

"Master, let's go." The old man surnamed Li said with a smile.

Li Yi nodded and got on the carriage again. The carriage started slowly. Through the gap, he saw the receding bluestone slabs under his feet. He felt extremely calm.

As he continued to approach the capital, the strange feeling in his heart was gradually fading away. He was afraid that it would completely dissipate soon, which also made Li Yi feel that this trip was not in vain after all.

Along the way, Uncle Li had told him everything about the current situation of the Li family.

The old man of the Li family established meritorious service at the founding of the People's Republic of China. He was granted the title of county magistrate and created the most primitive foundation for the Li family. A few decades ago, the Li family was considered prominent in the capital. However, with the death of the old man, the Li family The descendants of the family did not establish enough meritorious service to maintain the title, and the title was reduced from generation to generation. Until the death of the master, the Li family gradually declined, and now it is about to be kicked out of the ranks of nobles.

Li Yi's father, as the eldest son in the direct line, was supposed to inherit the Li family business. However, he gave up everything for a woman and left his hometown. After the death of the previous head of the family, the only person who could take over the title was the second son in the direct line, and the title became The county son, of course, in addition to his title, he also has an official position in the court, and is now the backbone of the Li family.

The carriage slowly drove into the city gate. The bluestone-paved street was more than twice the size of the main street of Qing'an Mansion. Even so, the street was still slightly crowded, with pedestrians and horses flowing continuously. The carriage drove for about a quarter of an hour. , the number of pedestrians on the road gradually decreased, and the houses on both sides of the street became more and more grand. Uncle Li excitedly shouted "We're here", the carriage stopped, and Li Yi and Liu Ruyi got off the carriage.

"Master, the old lady and the others are already waiting in the inner hall. Come over quickly." A large group of maids and servants gathered at the door of a tall house. The guard who had left earlier walked out of the crowd and said.

Uncle Li came over and said, "Master, follow me. Let's go to see the old lady first."

Li Yi was a junior, so it was naturally impossible for his elders to greet him at the door. He walked into the Li family's door amidst the doubtful and curious eyes of the servants.

Although the Li family has declined, the house is still grand. Li Yi didn't know how many long corridors he walked through and how many moon doors he passed before he came to a spacious hall.

Before they entered the hall, a trembling figure walked out of the house on crutches.

"My poor child!"

The old woman with a wrinkled face and gray hair shook off the maid's support, wandered up to Li Yi, held his hand, and burst into tears.

This sudden scene made Li Yi a little at a loss. He could only let the old woman hold him. Seeing her crying with joy, Li Yi sighed lightly and said with difficulty, "Grandma, I'm back……"

The old woman's unabashed feelings reminded Li Yi of the old man in another world, and he couldn't help but be deeply moved in his heart.

"It'll be good to come back, it'll be good to come back." The old man wiped away the tears on his face with his sleeves, looked at Li Yi up and down, and murmured: "It can't be wrong, it can't be wrong, he and Minghan are exactly the same. The one who came out is the child of my Li family..."

As if thinking of sad things, the old man's mood began to become depressed again, "My poor Minghan child..."

In Li Yi's memory, he had never seen the father of the original owner of the body mention family matters, but on the Double Ninth Festival every year, after he was drunk, he saw him crying and saying "Mom, the child is unfilial..." more than once. Words such as "I'm sorry for you, my child" show that the old lady's position in his heart is extremely important.

Along the way, I also learned from Uncle Li that the old lady loved her eldest son the most. In the past twenty years, she often cried late at night, became sick with worry, and was in poor health.

Suddenly, the old lady seemed to have noticed something. She suddenly looked at Liu Ruyi who was standing next to Li Yi. After her eyes lit up, she let go of Li Yi, hurriedly walked over, held her hand and said, "This is me. My grandson is so handsome, and my grandson has good taste. Come, let grandma take a good look at her.”

Hearing the old lady's "granddaughter-in-law", the guard named Li Zheng's face changed wildly. A few days ago, he was grabbed by the collar and thrown out of the yard by the heroine because of the "second lady", and now his butt is She was still in pain. If the old lady was thrown out, she would be dead!

However, the scene he was worried about did not appear. The old lady took Liu Ruyi's hand and looked at her more and more satisfied. The wrinkles on her face were stretched out. She took a bracelet from her wrist and said, "This is the first time I meet my granddaughter-in-law. I don't have anything good to give you. Take this bracelet and you will be a member of our Li family in the future!"

Miss Liu, who has always been fearless and can poke a hole in the sky when she gets angry, seemed a little helpless at this time and looked at Li Yi for help.

Li Yi could only walk over and explain, "Grandma, the lady is not feeling well and can't stand the fatigue of the journey. She didn't come with you this time. This is my grandson's sister-in-law."

"Sisters are as close as a family. They are all the same." The old lady seemed not to hear Li Yi's words. She smiled and put the bracelet on Liu Ruyi's wrist.

"What do you mean by all the same..." Li Yi stood there in a daze, and was speechless for a while.

Uncle Li, who was standing by, watched the old lady put the bracelet on the wrist of the second daughter of the lady's family. His eyes widened and his face was full of disbelief.

This bracelet was put on the old lady by the old lady herself when she married the master. It has always been passed down to the eldest wife of the Li family. The second wife has begged the old lady for decades but she didn't give it to her. Could it be that she was so happy that she forgot about it?
