Mr. Xiang teases her husband every day

Chapter 127 Homestead Dispute

Just a few days after being warm with his wife, he had to go to Jin'an again. Mr. Xiang was very unhappy. The result of his displeasure was that Mr. Xiang, who had always been refined, came to Li's house in Jin'an with a cold face the whole time.The steward of the Li family who accompanied him was careful and diligent all the way, not daring to touch bad luck.

There was a strong smell of medicine in Mrs. Li's room, and he himself looked like he was dying of old age. He leaned on the bed half crookedly, and said weakly: "I hope Mr. Xiang will forgive me. This old man's illness has been gone for a long time." It's like fate, I really can't get up, I'm neglecting Mr. Xiang."

"It's okay, let's talk about what is going on."

Unexpectedly, Xiang Yuan went straight to the topic as soon as he came up, and he didn't even say a few words of politeness. Mrs. Li choked, his face changed, and he glanced at the eldest son who was serving him respectfully, paused, and just about to speak, unexpectedly, Xiang Yuan But he stopped his words first, and said: "Wait a minute, old man, Xiang's ugly words are first, this incident may not be that simple behind it, so I hope the old man will not hide anything, and it will be as it is, if it is because of the old man's misleading , If something goes wrong, Xiang is not responsible."

As soon as Xiang Yuan said this, no matter whether it was Mrs. Li or Mrs. Li, their expressions were all stern, and the words prepared in front of them were all useless?

"Naturally, although my useless grandson instigated this incident, it's not a big deal in detail. I hate that the Lu family bullied others and sent my grandson to prison for even a single disagreement." Even though our Li family is a businessman, we still have a head and a face. We have some face in Jin'an City. The Lu family is so disregarded, isn't it sincerely insulting us in the officialdom?"

Old Master Li spoke sadly, but Xiang Yuan didn't even move his eyebrows.Old Mrs. Li observed secretly, seeing this, he couldn't help but spit out from the bottom of his heart: "Hey, you are so young, you have a heart of stone."

"Lord Xiang, the Lu family is really hateful. Their family is just a small county magistrate in the county government, and they show off their power all day long. They don't take businessmen like us seriously, just let it be arrogant. This time it was just a dispute over the land boundary, and their family actually beat people! After the attack, Chenghui was locked up and sent to prison. Poor Chenghui had never seen such a battle before. Even if he fainted, he was caught Drag it away. In the past two days, my heart as a father has boiled like a frying pan. Mr. Xiang, you are the brother of my nephew and daughter-in-law Zhenniang, and our Li family, that is a real relative. Even if you have scruples, please reach out and help us, at least get your nephew out of prison!"

"Who moved first?"

Mrs. Li glanced at Mrs. Li, his lips moved, and just as he said a word: "he", Mrs. Li stopped the conversation, and said with a shamed look: "Oh, I was not strict in discipline, and I did it first. That useless grandson."

Xiang Yuan cast a cool glance at Mr. Li.

Grandpa Li's face flushed suddenly, and he couldn't help but argue: "Even if the child made the first move, it was just a few pushes, but the Lu family's five or six servants did it together, and almost missed my son." The bridge of the nose is broken, very arrogant."

Rubbing between his brows, Xiang Yuan thought about the whole matter carefully, and felt that if it was just a dispute over the boundary between two houses, it would not be enough to send someone to jail.If more than that, what could be the reason why the Lu family is so arrogant and fearless?

Xiang Yu stood behind Xiang Yuan, with a serious expression, trying to look like a mature young man.

Although I didn't have the opportunity to go out with the master to entertain and meet guests in Lizhong, but this time when dealing with the disaster of the Li family in Jin'an, the master brought him together and told him to watch and listen more, and think carefully, but he didn't say how much he should do. What to listen to, what to watch more, what to pay more attention to, and what not to keep in mind.Secretly clenching his fist, Xiang Yu knew that this was the master's intention to take the school exam, no matter what, he should listen more and memorize more according to his own feeling.

He rushed over all the way and met with Mrs. Li non-stop to learn more details. After he understood everything, it was noon.Rejecting the invitation to have dinner with Mr. Li, Xiang Yuan went back to the house in the front yard prepared for him by the Li family alone. Before he could sit down and take a rest, Mrs. Xiang came to the door with a food box.

Xiang Yuan really didn't want to say anything to the worried looking eldest sister, so he just waved his hand and asked her to put the food box on the table.

"Congzi, can you solve this matter this time? Although my elder brother is a little impatient, he is not bad in nature. This time he was arrested and imprisoned. I don't know why."

Xiang Yuan sat at the table calmly, while Xiang Yu lowered his eyes and concentrated on taking out the dishes and cups from the food box and placing them, as if he didn't care about the conversation between the two.

"Big brother, you call it kindly."

Big Sister Xiang's face flushed red, showing some embarrassment, and she made a distinction: "I am Li's wife, so I naturally want to call him Big Brother. Is it possible that I have to call him by his first name without education?"

Xiang Yuan raised his eyebrows to look at her, Big Sister Xiang thought that she had tricked Xiang Yuan into coming over to help use her power to win the house in the name of the troubles of the Li family, so she felt very guilty, seeing Xiang Yuan looking directly at her, only half a breath later, she was defeated Fleeing.

Xiang Yu took a peek at Xiang Yuan, and saw that although the master's face was calm, but his sitting posture had not changed for a long time, he couldn't help feeling sorry for him.

No matter what the Xiang family's eldest aunt said, she is also the sister of the master's direct relative, but now she doesn't care about the master's feelings at all, she doesn't ask anything else when she comes up, she only cares about her husband's family, and she keeps saying that the big brother and the younger brother are in the master's ears, How chilling.Why didn't she think of getting up and asking Master if the trip went well?Is there any discomfort?Also, what happened to Zhao Zhengjun, who was about to give birth, and what happened to Mrs. Li at home, her family didn't ask at all, and only cared about her husband's family.Most importantly, she never thought about whether the Li family asked Master to help him this time, whether it would hinder Master's official career, and whether Master was embarrassed?Don't think about anything, don't think about Master at all!No wonder the master's face was cold and indifferent, it must have hurt his heart.

Squeezing the bridge of his nose, Xiang Yuan reorganized in his mind what happened to the Li family this time, and found something weird.

It stands to reason that even if the Lu family looked down on merchants like the Li family, they would not have some quarrels, so they would not give up, and even sent him to prison.Anyway, the two have been neighbors for many years, even if they don't have much affection, they always meet half-familiarly.Such disregard of human feelings will not only hurt the Li family's face, but the Lu family will also leave a bad impression of domineering and incommunicable to the neighbors, which is not worth the loss.Furthermore, I showed up at the Li family on the third day of the junior high school. As the neighbors of the Lu family, it is impossible not to know about it, and since I know it, according to the rules of the officialdom, there will be some taboos. Difficult.

So, here comes the question, what kind of power did the Lu family rely on to be so stubborn and reckless this time?In other words, what kind of promise did he get that he insisted on torturing the Li family and implicating himself?

After lunch, Xiang Yuan didn't take a rest, and sent people to Jin'an County Yamen for a closer look at the information of officials, large and small, and asked Niu Er to go out to find out the details of Lu's family who had conflicts with Li Chenghui.As for Xiang Yu, Xiang Yuan gave him a task. After meeting with Lu's family, Xiang Yuan asked him to write his own analysis of this incident. The number of words is not required, as long as the most real feelings are available. Your own opinion is better.

Xiang Yu wrote it down solemnly, listened and watched more carefully, and tried to remember what he heard and saw in his mind. If he didn't understand at the moment, he should write it down first, and then think about it alone in the dead of night.

Seeing that he was so serious and careful, Xiang Yuan was very satisfied from the bottom of his heart.It is natural for a disciple to be smart, but at the same time, he is diligent and hardworking, and willing to work hard to study. This kind of quality is naturally more likable.

The eldest sister Xiang came back to her own yard and just entered the house. Li Jiran hurried up to meet her and asked in a loud voice, "How is it? What did you say, brother? How sure are you about the elder brother? Do you have a good life and Cong?" kid talk?"

Sister Xiang took her seat leisurely, squinting her eyes and raising her eyebrows, she looked at Li Jiran with a half-smile, and said: "Now that something happened, I think of me now, Baba asked me to invite my son over, and repeatedly urged me to go over and ask for news. What, At this moment, your darling little hoof is useless? Why don't you ask her to find someone to help you?"

Li Jiran showed embarrassment, choked for a while, and leaned over with a smile, took Sister Xiang's hand, and said, "Xiaocui is just a thing to relieve boredom, and it deserves your attention? If you see her angry , I’ll send this one away today.”

Sister Xiang threw his hand away and snorted, "It's just a toy, I don't bother to worry about it."

Having said that, the surface is much calmer after all.

Li Jiran hurriedly said again: "Then, big brother?"

"Don't worry, Congzi is a capable person, and now that he's a big official, this idea doesn't take much effort."

Li Jiran showed joy, sat down next to Sister Xiang, talked sweetly and sweetly, and the couple sat side by side.

The Lu family next door is also a big undivided family. People from four or five houses are crowded together, with children and grandchildren, more than [-] people.It's just that compared to Li's family, which has a big house, a big house, a big house, a second house and a small second house, the size is nearly ten rooms, and more than [-] people are crowded together in one place, it is already very affluent.Not to mention that someone from Lu's family works in the county government, so the size of the house is considered to be an official, and the area of ​​​​the house is naturally larger than that of the Li family.

Xiang Yuan entered through the main entrance, and arrived at the main hall where Lu's family received guests smoothly. However, looking back from here, it is not difficult to see the courtyard behind, which is twisted and twisted, with layers upon layers.

The head of the Lu family is the elder of the Lu family. He is fifty-five years old and belongs to the grandfather's generation.However, compared to the elders of the Li family who are of the same age and seniority, it is obvious that the elders of the Lu family are wiser and calmer, with the demeanor of a family leader.

Xiang Yuan guessed from the bottom of his heart, maybe it was because the old man of the Li family was still there, and he was used to taking matters into his own hands. The old man was used to relying on him, like a child who has not yet been weaned, so he naturally lost in momentum.

Facing Xiang Yuan, Mr. Lu was very polite and sincere in his hospitality, but when it came to the dispute with the Li family at this time, Mr. Lu seemed to change his face, and said that the Li family was bullying without showing any affection. It’s too much, and it’s not convenient to occupy the uncertain boundary between the two families without telling them. Not only did they have no regrets afterwards, but they even beat people first. I'm afraid it will be difficult to gain a foothold.

Xiang Yuan smiled faintly, put down the teacup, tapped the table lightly with his slender fingers, and said unhurriedly: "Master Lu's words are exaggerated. The Lu and Li families have been neighbors for many years, and they have always seen each other when they look up. .Now you are fighting like tearing your face apart, and it is a matter of embarrassment for both of you to add to the conversation between the neighbors and the left and right."

"Being bullied to the top and not daring to resist, wouldn't the neighbors look down on you even more? The old man knows that Mr. Xiang has a high position and power. We are a small family, if Mr. Xiang really cares about it, I'm afraid it will be smashed and swallowed. "
