?Chapter 17 slander

"You came."

When Li Huai walked into Mrs. Liu's house, what he saw was the haggard face of his cheap mother, Mrs. Liu.

"I've met my mother." Half a month was enough for Li Huai to become familiar with basic etiquette. Although the Li Huai in the past acted erratically and unscrupulously, he was still quite polite in front of this mother, but he was not

He likes to be disciplined, so he is not very close to Mr. Liu.

This gave Li Huai a lot of convenience, and the effect of the ban prevented him from hanging around in front of Mr. Liu. But now he just came here to solve the problem, and he suddenly thought of the cheap third uncle Li Yu.

, I just said that I would come to Mrs. Liu to intercede, but then I turned around and withdrew. It was really unreliable!

"I've also heard about your story these days. I haven't gone out at home, which finally makes me feel less worried." Mrs. Liu sat at the table and looked at Li Huai and said, "Why did you come here this time?"

?”

Li Huai noticed that Cheap's mother's face was full of exhaustion, and he couldn't help but think of his nominal second brother, the current Marquis of Dingxiang, Li Guo.

On the third day after Li Huai's wedding, Dingxiang Marquis Li Hao suddenly fainted at a banquet, and then he remained unconscious for two days and one night. This really frightened the whole family, and chaos ensued.

Although Li Hao woke up later, Mrs. Liu did not dare to take it lightly. In recent days, she had exhausted her efforts for Li Huai's brother Li Hao. She had called famous doctors from Chang'an and abroad, but there was no improvement.

It's already somewhat clear, but I just don't want to accept it.

"My mother has had a bad appetite these past two days, so my son came here specially to see her." Li Huai said, carefully observing the old lady opposite, recalling the previous meetings, the old lady was quite serious and scolded her a lot.

"You don't have to think too much about these things, just tell me why you're here," Mrs. Liu frowned slightly, "I know your temperament, and you won't come to me if you have nothing to do."

Li Huai sighed secretly, cupped his hands and said: "I was about to tell my mother something. My good friend, the young prince of the Duke of Rongguo, has now achieved great success in northern Xinjiang and is a new noble in the imperial court. He will return to Beijing to meet people.

I told you that you want to make an appointment with me to reminisce about old times. I thought about it, but now is a good time to make friends..."

"The young master of Duke Rongguo?" Mrs. Liu was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "He is a capable man. In the past few months, a lot of his deeds on the front line have been spread in Chang'an. If you can make friends with him,

I should learn more from others about goodness. If I can get one or two of them, I can rest assured, but..."

Li Huai listened to it and thought it was going well, but when he heard this "just", his heart moved, and the scene of Xu leaving just now flashed through his mind.

Sure enough, the next thing I heard the old lady said: "Your fifth aunt just said something. You were causing mischief outside, and many people came to her place, which made the whole yard restless. This is wrong, so I begged you."

I will lock you up for a few more days!"

Li Huai narrowed his eyes, anger welling up in his heart.

As expected, Mrs. Xu is here to complain!

Mrs. Liu continued: "She also said, these days, you often hang out with the younger generation, and you still imitate the storyteller and make up some nonsense stories. What a nonsense!" Mrs. Liu started to blame, "Your brother has been ill recently.

Okay, why don't you come here more often? What can you do if you just hang out with the younger generation? Why don't you go to school if you have the time? I confine you to my home. Firstly, I am afraid that you will cause trouble when you go out when you are newly married.

Secondly, I want you to read more books to calm your mind!"

"Alas!" Mrs. Liu couldn't help but sigh again, with a sad look on her face, "If you had your brother's temperament, knowledge and ability, I could rest assured. It would also be a blessing to the Li family. But why is it like this?

Why is Erlang’s life so miserable!”

A cold light flashed in his eyes, and the anger in Li Huai's heart grew stronger, but he couldn't let it happen on the spot. It should be noted that in the setting, filial piety is the first priority in the world, and filial piety is the first, not to mention that the cheap mother is Li Huai's original mother, even his stepmother

, causing disrespect will also affect the future.

At this time, the steward of the mansion came over and said that Li Yu had sent someone here with something important to report. This person was Li Qu. Seeing Li Huai's appearance, he just took a look and said nothing.

"Since you're the third child, please come over quickly!" Mrs. Liu stopped talking and asked people to come in first.

"I've seen the old lady!" The person who came was a scribe with a dignified appearance.

, after saluting Mr. Liu, he also greeted Li Huai, who was determined when he saw this man.

"It turns out to be Mr. Ji. I wonder if my three brothers have anything to say to me." Mrs. Liu's tone was very polite.

"My master had a very pleasant chat with the Seventh Young Master today. He was very happy to know that he had recently closed his door to reflect on himself and learned a lot from his studies. He only had a few words just now. However, there was something urgent in the Yamen, so he had to leave temporarily, but

Still thinking about it, I sent me here to talk to the old lady so that the seventh young master can go to his house to gather and talk in the past two days."

Mrs. Liu was stunned when she heard this, pointed at Li Huai and said, "He's talking about Brother Huai?"

Mr. Na Ji nodded and said: "It is the Seventh Young Master!" Then he added, "My master also said that a young master from the Duke's mansion recently returned from a great victory. I don't know how many people in Chang'an want to get close to him. Qi Lang

I have been on good terms with the young prince since I was a child, and at this time of contact, this matter may be related to the prosperity of the Li family, so we should treat it with caution."

"The little prince, is he so powerful now?" The old lady was surprised, looked at her son again, showing doubts, and then asked Mr. Ji, "The third child really said that?"

"That's it. If there is no emergency at the Yamen, the Lord will come over and talk to you in person."

Mrs. Liu listened, became silent, and finally nodded and said: "I know it. Go back and tell the third child to reassure him. Since it concerns the Li family, I will definitely not ignore it."

"In that case, I'll go back and resume my life." Mr. Ji said, cupping his hands, giving a salute to Li Huai, and then left.

As soon as he left, the hall fell into silence.

Li Huai just stood and said nothing.

The old lady thought for a while and then suddenly said: "If that's the case, then this is a business matter and you need to make friends. If you need it, your family will definitely help you. Your third uncle is a capable person. Since he said that you have made some progress,

, there should be a reason, but you must not be proud of it, let alone act as willfully as you did in the past! Otherwise, this good thing will also turn into a bad thing!"

"My child remembers," Li Huaigong cupped his hand and said: "There is another thing. There is a shortage of people in the child's hospital. I have talked to the director of Xu Da several times, but nothing can be done. Now that I have to meet someone in the army, I shouldn't.

The Marquis Mansion has lost its prestige, so a few people are needed to support the scene."

"I will go down and dispatch six nursing homes for you later, but we have something to say first," Ms. Liu asked with great worry, "I will make an agreement with the nursing home to only go see your friend, and not let him go.

You can't go to the land where the fences are built. If you violate them, they will come back directly, and you can go to see the Rongguo Master by yourself."

Alas, this kind of bad-faith environment is really tiring.

Li Huai was helpless in his heart, but he could only agree. Seeing that Mrs. Liu was tired, he said goodbye and left. At the same time, he hated Mrs. Xu, and he also saw the prejudice and bias of his cheap mother, and was unwilling to stay longer.

"Don't forget to see your brother!" Ms. Liu still reminded her.

After listening to the last instruction, Li Huai also agreed, and then led people to his brother's courtyard, but before he entered, he was stopped by the sister-in-law.

"Your brother has already gone to bed. Let's do it another day."

Liu Huai looked at the woman with a look on her face, frowned slightly, and said, "In that case, I'll come back tomorrow."

But his sister-in-law said: "There is no need to come tomorrow! Erlang needs to have a good life and cultivate himself for a few days!"

Taking a deep breath, Li Huai took a deep look at his sister-in-law, cupped her hands, and said no more. But when he left, he glanced at the door with his peripheral vision and saw a familiar figure. She was not the fifth aunt who left Liu's courtyard before.

Xu family?

This is really true, I have no intention of playing house fighting with you!

Shaking his head, Li Huai turned around and walked away with long strides.

The treatment you receive today will be repaid in the future! It’s just that it will take a few more days before you can gain power!

"A real man, you really can't live without power for a day! Otherwise, you will live a miserable life in this big house, and you can only do things like a dog and a dog, and do things in a small way! It's just making people uncomfortable! I don't like it!"

"It's not the one from the Fifth Master's family who is slandering you behind your back!" The book boy Li Wu couldn't help complaining, "I heard from my good friend that the mistress of the Fifth Master's family secretly slandered you, Master.

Those are really vicious words to harm the Marquis! This will make the people in the Marquis’ courtyard be wary of you and won’t even let you in.

Come in! Master Wu and his family are really disgusting! Master, how can you bear this tone!?"

"You little slave, don't be so provocative. I have my own opinions." A cold look flashed in Li Huai's eyes, "Those who act like a woman and jump off the leash will not be proud for a few chapters. Don't worry, there are only a few chapters left.

,Want to have a house fight? Humph, I’m sorry, I don’t want to accompany you!”

Li Wu couldn't understand Li Huai's words mixed with complaints, but he also heard the anger in his words, so he nodded in agreement.

Soon, at three o'clock in the morning, when Li Huai returned to his courtyard, he received a letter.

When he opened it and took a look, he immediately smiled.
