Second Marriage

The wing was so quiet that the needles fell, and the boy's forehead was pressed against the floor tiles, and he heard the sound of gasping around him.

"Qingzhi! What are you fooling around?!" After Madam Li took a deep breath, she stood up pale and stretched out her hand to pull the person up.

The teenager got up, and she stood still as if she was a rooted old tree, and her knees were so sticky to the stone bricks.

Master Li doesn't have the kind of irritability that his wife has. He will definitely look at the back of his head for a moment, and ask in a deep voice, "Did you figure it out?"

"Think clearly!" Li Qingzhi replied forcefully without thinking.

On that day, his mother knelt before him crying and said that Xiao Youning wanted to harm the Li family and he could not become a sinner of the Li family.

He really stopped bluffing at that time, and then he was indeed cowardly and afraid.

He is the youngest son of the family, his eldest brother is well-known, and he has already served as a senior in the Imperial Academy. He is always told to try to get closer to his father and brother, but his mother prefers him. Even if he has mediocre aptitude, he holds it in the palm of his hand. The first thing his mother thinks is that he cannot be blamed.

After calming down these days, he suddenly felt how shameless and selfish he was. Since childhood, his feelings for Xiao Youning became more and more profound in guilt.

It shouldn't be too late to regret it now, and now is the time for him to remedy it.

Li Qingzhi's voice was firm and sonorous, and Madam Li couldn't get him up, so she beat him directly with anger.

The fist went round, with resentment every time. Resentment Xiao Youning is fond of fondness, resentment that the son who hurts directly in the palm of his hand is bewitched, tears are streaming down, and mean words keep popping out of his mouth.

Li Qingzhi just kneeled and let his mother vent, Mrs. Ye sat cross-legged on the red sandalwood Arhat bed, quietly watching the farce.

Master Li was disgusted with his wife's acts like a shrew, but his mother-in-law was afraid to show it, so she could only endure secretly raising her eyes to look at the old man.

When the sun didn't enter the deepest part of the house, the old man's expression was hidden from the light and shadow, making it difficult for people to distinguish, so that Master Li did not know what to do for a while.

This mother-in-law has been watching the breeze, seemingly not asking about world affairs, but she is not clear about what is happening in the capital, the court, or at home. She is a very wise and majestic woman. Only such a person can teach a Ye Wuye. Come.

So he never dared to be presumptuous in front of his mother-in-law.

Mrs. Li's cries and scolding echoed in the room. I don't know how long it has been before, but the scolding has not yet subsided. Old lady Ye raised his lips slightly and said, "Enough."

The tone is not heavy, but it has the power to make people instantly quiet.

Mrs. Li beat her son's hand, her face was full of tears and resentment, and she rushed to her mother's feet and said mournfully: "Mother, this rebellious son is going to face his daughter. There is no reason to welcome that Humeizi again at this time."

"Is there no reason to welcome back, or welcome back, leaving you the master of the house dumb?" The old man pulled out the sleeves held by his daughter and looked at her with a sharp look, "How can I teach Out of your selfish and violent temper? You are in trouble, and you are supposed to lift the sedan chair and welcome her back to the house yourself!"

Madam Li's eyes widened, she couldn't believe that her mother would help an outsider by saying such things that made her feel ashamed.

Master Li heard his temple beat, thinking that his mother-in-law wanted to support her son.

Li Qingzhi, who was motionless, raised his head in surprise and excitedly said: "Grandma also supports grandson!"

"I can't afford to lose this old face!"

But he didn't want the old man to throw a pot of cold water on him, Li Qingzhi was stunned.

Mrs. Ye said: "You mother and your son think that all the people in the world should be surrounded by you? The trick is to come, and the wave is to go? Roll away, without my permission, don't step into the view of the breeze!"

The old man brushed his sleeves, and the woman who had been silent, standing behind her, took a step at this time and made a please gesture towards the Li family.

Master Li was unable to go up and down because of his mother-in-law's sharp turn. When he saw that he was going to be invited, he could no longer hold his old face and stood up and walked out quickly.

What else did Madam Li want to say, the woman saw that she and Li Qingzhi were not moving, she called out for someone, dragged him away, and closed the door.

"The old lady is helping or not helping her relatives." The old woman turned around after closing the door, smiling and holding up the messy chair.

"My old face has been lost to them, so what's the reason? It's so tumultuous..." Mrs. Ye slowly closed her eyes and let out a sullen breath. After a moment of silence, she thought of something. "Don't tell the old five about the matter just now, don't make him worry too much, so that he will alienate the Ye family. It's all from my stomach. No matter how bad they are, they are also his brothers and sisters. Maybe he will have to rely on these brothers in the future. Sisters helped."

"You just worry too much. The fifth master is a proper person. The Holy Spirit has given him that kind of power. Only brothers and sisters want to touch him."

Mrs. Ye slowly opened her eyes when she heard the words, her bright eyes became hollow, staring at the ground did not know what she was thinking.

——

Mrs. Li was crying all the way back to the Li family. Li Qingzhi was not scolded but was hit by Mrs. Ye. At this time, even his expression was dull. Like a puppet with no energy and spirit, it has become rotten wood.

Master Li endured his impatience and pondered his mother-in-law's words in the carriage for a long time. When he got off the carriage at home, he threw a sentence to his wife: "Ming'er, you follow me to the second room of Xiao's house to withdraw your dowry!"

The Ye family can't provoke them now. Marrying the Ye family back then saw the Ye family suddenly rise again. Since he has taken advantage of the Ye family and has been walking until now, he should be grateful. Ye clan is sometimes stupid, and he should tolerate it, but Xiao Youning can't handle it alone.

As soon as the words fell, there was a cry from the carriage, and a maid shouted that Mrs. Li could not run into it. It sounded like Mrs. Li couldn't think about it. Master Li didn't care about this kind of crying, making troubles and hanging himself, he walked away, and didn't even look at the carriage.

The sun is slanting west, and the evening of this day will soon be ushered in. The clouds on the edge of the sky were plated with a layer of gold, falling down, and everything in the sky and earth was covered with a soft halo.

Xiao Youning was leaning against the beauty in the corridor, listening to the cry of the tired bird returning to the nest, and there were servants sent by her stepmother to send furniture in and out in the yard.

The black lacquered furniture in her room was replaced with red sandalwood. They also carried a marble-inlaid Luohan bed and placed it in the Ming room. The Ming room was arranged into a small hall for meeting guests, but it was useless. A lot of thought.

Yuanguo watched those people rushing in and out, and whispered next to her: "Girl, what do they mean, because I'm holding the handle and please us?"

Xiao Youning looked back at the exquisite furnishings in the room, shook the fan in his hand, and said in the fresh breeze: "This is numbing us."

Wherever she needs to be so pleased, let her be seen by outsiders, and there is also a small hall for meeting guests. It is estimated that one day she will have to be the host.

Otherwise, no one can see these good things and the ‘good intentions’ that Erfang treats her.

Xiao Youning now doesn't care about Erfang's actions, anyway, she is not afraid of wearing shoes with bare feet, and she is not afraid of tearing her face. She has strong evidence now, but she doesn't have so many scruples.

An unknown bird landed on the fence and turned his head to look at her.

She was in a good mood and found it interesting, so she asked Yuanguo to bring cakes and leaned on the beauty to feed.

A woman came from outside again, her face was tight, and she smiled and bowed to her first.

"Three girls, the old lady said that she would pick you up from the dust, and set a table with her. Please go there in a while."

Xiao Youning was holding the pieces of pastry in his hand, looking at the bird that was startled to fly, regrettably, I know whether it is salty or not indifferent.

The woman smiled and wanted to leave, but she stopped her again: "You are the old lady in charge, can you tell me to go and set up a carriage tomorrow morning, I want to go out."

The mother-in-law was taken aback, and soon laughed again. She pressed her hand to the corner of the second-hand clothes and said, "Where can the slave and maid have the ability to handle affairs, it's just a messenger. But where the girl is going, the slave can I will give you a reply first."

"Mom is a proper person from the moment I walked in. I thought it was someone who was in charge. Sure enough, the people around the old lady were excellent, so please help me to mention something that doesn't conform to the rules of the house. Mom can also give me some tips."

Xiao Youning pretended to be surprised, and then smiled with a fan covering her mouth, with a pair of peach eyes smiling like a crescent moon.

She spoke politely, and she had a good-looking birth. Even the cinnabar mole under her smile was fresh. Everyone loved the charming and sweet girl, and the woman standing in front of her was very comfortable.

Yuanguo is a fierce temperament, but she is also very winking. When she heard the girl's request, she directly took out her purse and gave the woman a reward for silver.

The mother-in-law smiled so that her eyes narrowed into a line, thanked her again and again, and happily asked her about the car set.

When people left, Yuanguo asked strangely: "Girl, where will you go tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow is fifteen..." Xiao Youning really smiled with a flap of fan.

Of course it is to go to Qingfeng Temple.

She was telling it to the Taoist Master Wu Ye on purpose, and she would see if he really wanted to hide from herself, she was obviously a kind-hearted person, and her face was cold.

But before going to Qingfeng Temple, you must first go outside and then inquire about your father and brother. Today, she suddenly remembered a person. Maybe she could ask that person to connect and let her get in touch with some people in the imperial court.

When Xiao Youning was preparing for tomorrow's itinerary, Ye Shen still knew what had happened to his mother.

It wasn't from the Qingfeng Temple, it was Mrs. Li who was angry and ran back to her family to find her brother crying. Master Ye heard that he might have helped Xiao Youning, so he sent someone to see him saying that Li Qingzhi was going to welcome Xiao Youning back, and wanted to find out what he meant.

There was something wrong with the Xiao family's father and son, and the emperor hadn't taken any action for a long time. Master Ye had already murmured in his heart. Since it was something Xiao Youning, he would ask his younger brother for news.

Ye Shen had just taken a shower, and in the afternoon he was called by several princes to go riding and archery. He was so sticky that he couldn't bear it for a moment.

His temples were still carrying water vapor, and a few drops of water would not fall off, reflecting the sunlight, dyeing the deserted people a bit of smoke.

Jianyin sent the person sent by Master Ye Da, and when he came back, he saw his master standing by the window, his robe loosely draped over him.

"They are really boring. The toss about a little girl hasn't stopped now. Whoever loves to marry or not, ask Wu Ye about everything. It makes that girl Xiao's head is crowned with the name of Wu Ye."

Jianyin has been doing trivial things in the past two days, and he has been in a bad mood. When he finds someone who can chant, he uses it to vent his anger.

Ye Shen didn't talk, but the words were in his ears.

Li Qingzhi wants Xiao Youning again?

He bends his finger slightly, and taps it on the window sill. The appearance of Xiao Youning grabbing his sleeve suddenly jumps into his mind, without warning. Such a pitiful appearance, always hooked to make him feel soft.

It was the same as when she was still young, she obviously didn't take care of her, and he could cry too much if he was hurt, as if he was the unforgivable sin.

"Tomorrow is fifteen?"

Ye Shen stared at a small scar on his finger and asked.

Jianyin still wanted to nag, when he heard the questioning, he said loudly: "Yes, tomorrow is fifteen."
