Poor Family

Wuchangbo Mansion.

The door was opened, and everyone was eager to welcome them.

Mrs. Shi stood at the front, Mr. and Mrs. Shi Wu, Mr. and Mrs. Shi Qi took a step behind, and finally there were many grandchildren of the Shi family. Everyone looked at the carriages that were gradually approaching.

As the carriages and horses approached, everyone's eyes fell on Li Changsen and Li Sanlang who were riding on horseback to the left and right of the carriage.

After seeing Li Changsen's face clearly, Mrs. Shi's expressions flickered a little.

Master Shi Wu sighed a bit: "I kind of understand why the eldest uncle and the others know that the fourth brother is from the Shi family as soon as they see the fourth brother."

Li Changsen looks too typical of his family, tall and tall with sharp eyebrows and phoenix eyes.

The four brothers of the Shi family, except for Shi Zhengkun, were all tall and straight, and all had a pair of red phoenix eyes similar to the old master Shi.

Li Changsen obviously inherited the strengths of the Shi family.

Looking at Li Changsen, whose features were somewhat similar to his own, at this moment, Master Shi Wu and Master Shi Qi really felt bound by blood, and their expressions were not as casual as before.

Mrs. Shi and the three of them were slightly surprised. Li Changsen and his son looked different from the timid and reserved appearance they imagined. It was a little dark, but the aura radiating from them made it difficult to move their eyes away.

It's not as good as expected!

"The new fourth uncle doesn't seem to be as bad as I imagined. He looks very majestic when he rides a horse."

The adults have their own thoughts in their hearts, and the children are also whispering.

On the other side, in the carriage slowly driving towards the uncle's mansion, Li Wuya lifted the curtain of the carriage a slit, and carefully looked at the situation outside.

The door was wide open, and everyone came out to welcome them. It could be seen that the Shi family still valued their family.

Soon, the carriage arrived outside the gate of Bofu.

"Eldest Madam, Fifth Master, Fifth Madam, Seventh Master, Seventh Madam, Fourth Master is back home!"

Manager Shi jumped out of the carriage first, and sang the newspaper loudly to the master of the Shi family.

Li Changsen, who was getting off his horse, paused for a moment, quickly suppressed the restlessness in his heart, and got off the horse neatly.

Li Sanlang was neither fast nor slow, one step behind Li Changsen.

Immediately afterwards, the door of the carriage opened, and Li Erya got out of the carriage with a bow, and then turned around to help Jin Yue'e who came out to get off.

As soon as the mother and daughter stood still, Li Wuya and Li Qilang, who were sitting in the rear carriage, walked over hand in hand.

The whole family appeared neatly in front of everyone.

Mrs. Shi took a quick look at Li Changsen's family, and the smile on her face was a little more sincere than before: "Welcome the fourth brother and sister home."

Manager Shi hurriedly introduced from the side: "Fourth Master, Fourth Madam, this is the Eldest Madam."

Li Changsen and Jin Yuee greeted quickly: "Sister-in-law."

At this time, the Fifth Master and his wife, and the Seventh Master and his wife stood up: "Welcome Fourth Brother and Fourth Sister-in-law home."

Manager Shi introduced again: "This is the Fifth Master, Fifth Madam, Seventh Master, and Seventh Madam."

Li Changsen and Jin Yuee replied: "Fifth brother, fifth brother, seventh brother, seventh brother."

The grandchildren standing at the end, headed by the uncle of the Shi family, also stepped forward to salute: "Welcome fourth uncle and fourth aunt home."

Li Changsen and Jin Yue'e smiled and nodded, and then called Li Sanlang and the others to come forward: "These are my four useless children."

As soon as the words fell, Li Sanlang brought his younger siblings to greet Shi's parents and seniors.

Li Sanlang and Li Qilang bowed and clasped their fists in salute, while Li Erya and Li Wuya bowed their knees and saluted: "Greetings to Uncle, Fifth Uncle and Fifth Aunt, Seventh Uncle and Seventh Aunt."

After Mrs. Shi responded with a smile, she made a peer salute to the grandchildren of the Shi family: "Brothers and sisters, be polite."

It is decent and generous, and there is no trace of pettiness.

After both parties had met the ceremony, the eldest lady of the Shi family stepped forward and held Jin Yue'e's hand very affectionately: "Father and mother have been talking about you every day during this time, and finally they are looking forward to you coming back."

Fifth Madam also smiled and stepped forward to hold Jin Yue'e's arm: "Sister-in-law Si, you are here, you don't even know how much we look forward to your return."

The seventh lady also came over, but she didn't make any affectionate gestures, she just stood behind Mrs. Shi with a smile.

Faced with such a warm reception, Jin Yue'e was a little overwhelmed. She didn't know how to respond, so she could only keep smiling and nodding.

Master Shi Wu and Master Shi Qi also walked to Li Changsen: "Fourth brother, let's go in quickly, don't make father and mother wait too long."

Li Changsen nodded, and then, together with Jin Yue'e, surrounded by Mrs. Shi and others, entered the gate of the uncle's mansion.

The uncle of the Shi family smiled and walked towards Li Sanlang and the others: "Let's go in too."

Li Sanlang nodded, and immediately brought his younger siblings into the Uncle's Mansion with the uncle of the Shi family and the grandma of the Shi family.

As for the second master of the Shi family and the others, they all fell behind, walking at a leisurely pace, and did not warmly greet Li Sanlang and the others.

After entering the uncle's mansion, Li Changsen and Jin Yue'e had to deal with Mrs. Shi and others, so they didn't care to enjoy the scenery of the uncle's mansion at all. empty look.

Only Li Wuya and Li Qilang were idle, looking around.

From the gate to the Yimen, and then to the Hanging Flower Gate, the pavilions and pavilions, and the corridors through the mountains, the two of them were dazzled.

This mansion is even bigger than the park ruins from the previous life.

"Sister, the uncle's mansion is so big, it's right for us to come back." Li Qilang said a little excitedly.

Li Wuya agreed with her whole face, and kept nodding her head.

The ancient nobles were really beyond her imagination.

She is confident that she can lead her family to make a fortune, but this prominent status and wealth cannot be achieved in a short while.

Just wanting to live in such a mansion is not something that can be solved with money alone.

Think about it in Beishi, even a meal depends on your status. Only people with corresponding status can afford to live in such a mansion.

"Sister, there is actually a lake in the mansion!"

"A rockery, sister, look quickly, there is a rockery there."

Li Wuya and Li Qilang visited the beautiful scenery of Bo's Mansion with great interest, while the rest of the Shi family walking behind them had different expressions.

"The two of them are like bumpkins entering the city!"

"Shut up, anyway, they are now members of the Shi family, our brothers and sisters, how can you speak so harshly of them?"

"As long as you are a good person, do you dare to take them out and introduce them to your friends?"

"The people I met were all literati and inkmen. For their comfort, I shouldn't take them there."

"Hmph, grand-sounding."

The second master of the Shi family did not participate in the argument between the younger siblings, and walked side by side with the second grandma of the Shi family, talking in a low voice.

"The brothers and sisters of the fourth uncle's family, I think it's okay, they are not as unpopular as I imagined, and my husband should go up and talk to them." Second Mistress Shi reminded.

The second master of the Shi family smiled and shook his head: "What can I talk to them about? Can they talk about ancient and modern times with me, or can they discuss calligraphy and painting with me? I can't talk to them at all, why bother to get together , making everyone uncomfortable."

The second grandma of the Shi family disagreed with this statement: "They are all of the same family. They don't talk about ancient and modern times, calligraphy and painting, but they can also talk about homework. Don't you see that the eldest brother and sister-in-law chat well with them?"

The second master of the Shi family became a little impatient: "They are them, and I am me."

Hearing that her husband's tone was not good, Second Mistress Shi didn't say any more, her expression was a little gloomy.

While talking, Yixiangtang arrived.

Mrs. Shi and Mrs. Shi did not sit and wait in the room, but stood side by side at the door. When they saw Li Changsen approaching, the two old people were slightly excited.

"Finally back." Old Master Shi whispered.

"Father, mother, the fourth brother's family is back!"

Mrs. Shi led Li Changsen and Jin Yue'e to Mrs. Shi and Mrs. Shi, and the maid hurriedly put the prepared futon on the ground.

Li Changsen looked at the two old men with gray temples in front of him, and his mood was very complicated. Four parts were happy, three parts were alienated, and three parts were apprehensive and worried.

Seeing that Li Changsen was standing still, Mrs. Shi had no choice but to remind: "Fourth brother, hurry up and see father and mother."

Li Changsen came back to his senses, and together with Jin Yuee, he knelt directly on the futon.

"A son pays his respects to his father and mother."

"Daughter-in-law pays respects to father and mother."

Mrs. Shi stepped forward to help Li Changsen, clutched his wrist tightly, and rubbed her teary eyes: "Son, I have suffered for you all these years."

As soon as these words came out, Li Changsen couldn't hold back his suppressed emotions anymore, his eyes were red, his nose was sore, he was choked up and couldn't speak.

Old Mrs. Shi on the side also looked very guilty, he didn't leak his emotions like Mrs. Shi, but just looked at Li Changsen silently.

Mrs. Shi stood up to smooth things over: "Mother, let's go inside and talk, the fourth brother's family must be tired after driving for so long."

Mrs. Shi collected her emotions, nodded, and pulled Li Changsen: "Come on, let's go into the room and talk."

Everyone entered the main hall of Yixiang Hall.

Li Wuya thought it would be crowded with so many people crowded together, but she didn't expect that to be the case at all.

She took a look and found that there were five large rooms in the upper room of Yixiang Hall, and the middle three rooms were directly opened up to form a hall, so it would be no problem to accommodate dozens of people at a time.

After entering the room, Mrs. Shi and Mrs. Shi took the main seats.

Mrs. Shi stood at the hands of Mrs. Shi, Mr. and Mrs. Shi Wu and Mrs. Shi Qi stood on the left and right respectively, and Mr. Shi and his grandchildren stood directly behind the chairs on the left and right.

Only Li Changsen's family was left in the middle of the hall.

At this time, another servant girl came to place the futon.

The kneeling that Li Changsen and Jin Yue'e made outside was just a brief kneeling, which didn't count. They knelt down again and kowtowed respectfully.

When they stood up, Li Sanlang and Li Erya stepped forward, knelt down and kowtowed.

"Grandson/granddaughter, meet grandfather, grandmother."

Mrs. Shi and Mrs. Shi nodded with a smile: "They are all good boys, get up quickly."

Next are Li Wuya and Li Qilang.

The way Li Qilang knelt was so crisp that Li Wuya paused slightly.

"Grandchild visits grandfather and grandmother."

The voice was so loud that it directly overwhelmed Li Wuya's voice.

When the old man looked at Li Qilang who was full of energy, his smile deepened: "Jiulang is very energetic."

Li Qilang quickly corrected him: "Grandfather, I am Qilang, not Jiulang."

When the old man saw that his grandson didn't have the timidity of being in a new environment, he was more and more satisfied: "According to the order of the grandchildren of the Shi family, you are ranked ninth. Do you think you are Jiulang?"

Li Qilang looked surprised: "Oh, it turns out that you sorted your grandfather according to Shi's family, okay, I will be Shi Jiulang in the future."

Li Qilang (Shi Jiulang)'s unaffected temperament made Mrs. Shi like it even more.

Mrs. Shi stared at his grandson, while Mrs. Shi's attention was on her granddaughter.

When Li Wuya saw the old lady looked at her, she immediately gave her a bright and cute smile.

Unlike the previous life, which advocated a fair family environment, the ancient family paid attention to order.

Obviously, Mrs. Shi and Mrs. Shi are the most powerful people in the Shi family.

Therefore, it is necessary to leave a good impression on the other party.

With round almond eyes and deep dimples, Madam Shi raised her eyebrows when she looked at the immature smiling face below.

Well, her family has an extra owner who pretends to be a pig and eats a tiger!

Without further confirmation, she can see that this little girl is definitely not the kind of sensible and obedient girl.

What the second brother said is really true. She is really like her in that she pretends to be good in front and makes trouble in the back.

After that, it was a confession scene.

Before at the gate, everyone just greeted each other roughly, but this time, they got to know each other one by one.

After the call, Li Wuya sighed, there are so many family members at that time.

Leaving aside the three married aunts, her father's three brothers had a total of 18 children. Adding their four brothers and sisters, the Shi family had 22 grandchildren.

It really is a big family!

"Since you're back, your names in the Li family won't be counted."

The old man Shi said, "Changsen, your generation is the orthodox generation. This is the name your mother and I gave you." Then, he handed a piece of paper to Li Changsen.

"Shi Zhenghe!"

"Your mother and I hope that your life will be peaceful and beautiful."

As he said that, the old master Shi looked at Li Sanlang and the other four: "Sanlang is the fifth grandson of the Shi family, named Shi Dingxuan; Erya is the third among the sisters, named Shi Fuyin; Wuya is the sixth , named Shi Fuxin; Qilang ranked ninth, named Shi Dinghao."

"Seven days later, I will open the ancestral hall for you to enter the genealogy."

"You are the descendants of the Shi family now, and everything in the past is over."
