Chapter 407 Two worries
Old Mrs. Li quickly went into the house to open a box and get official uniforms for her son.
Li Laoer, Li Yong and others said a few words, put their official uniforms on the carriage, and thought of their crying nephew, they spoke to Mrs. Li.
"Mom, if there is nothing serious at home, you can take Fu Niu'er to Luo'an to stay for a few days. Brother Huan is about to be hired, and all the boys are homesick.
“When I saw them at noon, Brother Cat was crying until he had runny nose and tears, Jia An Jia Xi was wilted, and he was as pitiful as an eggplant beaten by frost.”
Mrs. Li felt distressed when she heard this, and scolded her, "You're a worthless boy. If you want to study in other people's homes, you haven't had a chance to study. It's better for them to study at the door of their house and complain about being homesick. Even when you grow up, I'm afraid you'll still be a man with a kang head!" "
Li Yong and Huiniang both laughed and advised, "The children have been at home all the time. Of course they are not used to being left suddenly. Auntie will stay for a few days, and we will take care of her at home."
Mrs. Li couldn't help it, so she said, "Let's make arrangements today and tomorrow. Let's go the next day. I can't help you with building the yard."
Huiniang said quickly, "Don't worry, Auntie, there are so many folks in the village coming to help."
Soon, Li Laoer took a car into the city.
He will stay with Mr. Wen tonight and go to court together tomorrow. Mr. Wen can also familiarize him with it.
Orange Mrs. Li took Dongmei and Grandma He with her to help Li Yong and Huiniang's family move their things to the village chief's house, and then started preparing dinner.
Unfortunately, Li Zhensheng and Jia Huan stayed in the restaurant, and only Tao Hongying came back.
At such a huge table, there are only three people, old and young...
No matter how strong her heart is, Old Mrs. Li can't lift her chopsticks when she sees this, and sighs.
“The boys are homesick and crying in Luo’an. Without them at home, I can’t even eat well. Sometimes I think about what’s the benefit of having a grown-up child. I worry about two things.”
Tao Hongying felt bad, but she still smiled and persuaded her mother-in-law, "Mom, my family has been a little busy this time. It will be fine in a few days."
Old Mrs. Li waved her hands, still unable to cheer up.
Jiayin hurriedly picked up some food for grandma, "Grandma eats meat and will go see my brother the day after tomorrow!"
“Okay, okay!” Mrs. Li lowered her head and kissed her granddaughter on the forehead, and said with a smile, “Fortunately, we still have Fu Niu’er by our side, otherwise grandma would really not know how she would survive this day.”
Tao Hongying quickly called Dongmei, Grandma He, Shui Yun Shuiling and others to sit down and eat together, barely filling the dining table.
Thinking that Li Laoer would go to court tomorrow, Grandma He picked out some interesting stories from the court. For example, a certain old censor many years ago was so excited during a quarrel that he spit out his dentures.
For example, a military attaché had a bad stomach and farted a lot in the court hall, causing the emperor and officials to leave the court in a hurry!
Everyone was in disbelief and laughed so much that their stomachs ached.
Tao Hongying wiped away the tears from her laughter and asked, "Didn't I say that those who fail to behave in court will be slapped with a blackboard? Does anyone else dare to do this?"
He Yan laughed, "Hundreds of civil and military officials are people, nor are they fairy. They eat grains and grains. How can it guarantee that it is not wrong. As long as it is not intentional, the emperor will generally not account for accounting."
“What should I do with the second child? He doesn’t understand any rules. Don’t make such a joke tomorrow!” Mrs. Li couldn’t help but worry about her son again.
Tao Hongying quickly comforted her, "Mom, there is Mr. Wen too. I will definitely remind the second brother. Even if the second brother doesn't understand, he will not make any mistakes if he follows everything."
Everyone also said, "Yes, madam, I am very smart, so there will definitely be no problem."
In the small courtyard in the south of the city, Li Laoer, Mr. Wen and Liu Zhiheng were also eating and laughing together.
Originally, Li Laoer came over and planned to go to the palace to attend court with Mr. Wen, but the Liu family came over to deliver things. After returning home and saying a few words, Liu Zhiheng came over wearing his official uniform and joined in the fun.
The three of them talked while eating. Li Laoer had heard a lot about what happened in the court.
Whoever is a sworn enemy will definitely oppose whoever submits the report. Who is the son and daughter of the other, we are together to draw on our strength and deal with the outside world in unison.
Most people would be disgusted and bored after listening to it, but Li Laoer listened with great interest.
It was new at first. These things were completely different from the world he had been exposed to before.
Secondly, he also thought that he could not always rely on Mr. Wen and Liu Zhiheng in the future, and he should become familiar with the court as soon as possible.
After eating and drinking, the three of them took a rest early.
Early on the next morning, when the sky was still dark, Wen Hai called the three of them up, washed and changed clothes, had a simple meal, and then the three of them set off in the car.
When we arrived at the entrance of the palace, there was only a little light in the sky, but the carriages were already lined up.
Some people got out of the car and stood in the shelter to chat a few words, while others continued to take a nap while sitting on the carriage.
Mr. Wen and Liu Zhiheng’s mission was to get Li Laoer familiar with them, so they got off the bus early and introduced people they met to Li Laoer.
Li Laoer also has a good memory, is shrewd and tactful, and has a high title.
His greetings and pleasantries to whomever he greets may not make people feel close to him, but they will not offend them either.
Moreover, the Li family now has an earl, a first-grade lady, a princess, and the fiefdom of Suijintan.
It can be said that he has a high status and is extremely glorious, but he has no real power and poses no threat to anyone.
Everyone just wanted to watch the fun without offending or getting along with each other.
A doctor from the Ministry of Etiquette stood together with two acquaintances. Seeing this from a distance, he whispered, "The Li family is also powerful. They are a group of refugees who have only been in Jiangnan for two years and they are already crowded into the court." ?”
“Yes,” another person also lamented, “The Li family’s luck is really incredible. Over the years, there have been so many people traveling to Quanzhou to transport sea goods, but Li Zhensheng has encountered the best breeders from overseas.”
The last person shook his head, "This can't be solved by luck. Whether it's the Liu family or the Marquis, is it good luck to be friends with the Li family? The Li family must have some unknown secrets.
Apart from anything else, even if we get the good seeds and want to plant hundreds of acres of them without everyone else, and then present them to the emperor, without letting any news leak out, I'm afraid it won't be easy to do.
But the Li family did it! "
The doctor from the Ministry of Rites couldn't help but nod, "There are also the Wang family and the Yan family. None of them are easy to bully, but they all suffered at the hands of the Li family. The Li family is definitely not as simple as it seems!"
The other person disagreed, "It doesn't matter to us whether it is simple or not. Just wait and see whether it is a wolf or a sheep, we will always see clearly."
Such discussions happen in almost every corner.
But Li Laoer, who was on everyone's lips, seemed not to be aware of the undercurrent, and still smiled with a harmless look on his face.
This half an hour was enough for him to get familiar with half of the court.
At this time, the palace door finally opened.
Without waiting for Mr. Wen's guidance, several figures were rich, and officials with fat heads had pulled Li Laoji into the team.
They all have titles in their families, or they have fictitious positions.
It is appropriate for Li Laoer to stand with them.
