Chapter 57: Come and Envoy (1)

Taisu County, Li’s House.

The window of Li Chengye’s study was facing a plum tree. Because the window was half open, bursts of plum fragrance floated in.

A stack of tents was placed on the desk, and Li Chengye, who was dressed in casual clothes, worked diligently surrounded by this faint fragrance.

After a while, the books were sorted out, and I stretched my waist slightly. When I raised the cup, I found that the tea had been drunk.

"Plum Xiang!" Putting down the cup, Li Chengye called out the door.

"Master, what are your instructions?" After a while, a girl in a light pink dress walked in from outside, lowered her head slightly and said.

This woman has very white skin and very slender figure. She has a very thin waist. Just looking over, she will make people's eyes lit up. She will only lower her head and show her beautiful clouds. Although she is extremely beautiful, she has a unique charm.

Li Chengye stared at the woman for a moment, as if he was remembering something, then frowned and said in a deep voice: "The tea is gone, don't you know how to come in and add water? Go and change me a new pot."

"No." The maid Mei Xiang responded in a low voice. After being scolded, she had a little timidity on her face. She picked up the teacup and walked out. After taking a few steps, she was called back by Li Chengye from behind.

"Wait! I'll send you some more snacks."

"No!" Still responded gently, the maid Mei Xiang took small steps and quickly retreated.

Looking at the figure of this woman, Li Chengye couldn't help but squint his eyes.

He can't say that he has a bad impression of this woman. This woman has a fresh temperament, gentle words and deeds, which makes him like it a little, but there is a little grudge, which makes him never get close to this woman.

If you want to say, this woman has a pure background, she is usually gentle and cautious in her work, and is very respectful to her, and there seems to be nothing suspicious about it.

Li Chengye always felt that this woman was not simple.

The maids in his yard were all bought and given by his stepmother. If he said that the other party would not make any moves on it, he would not believe it if he broke his head.

He found his weaknesses and sent them out one after another, but this woman always made it difficult for him to have an attack.

The more I think about it, the more I feel there are some problems.

After a while, the door was opened again. The maid Mei Xiang returned, holding a tray in her hand, with new tea and fruits on it, which was very thoughtful and full of place.

A few snacks were carefully placed on the table, which were small and cute, and at first glance, it made people's index fingers move. The teacup was also placed on the table.

Li Chengye then picked up a piece and put it in his mouth. It melted in his mouth. It was very delicious, but it was not greasy at all. It only had a faint fragrance of flowers that entered his throat.

Close your eyes and savor it carefully. It is sweet but not greasy, soft, smooth and delicious... It is indeed a rare skill. It really surprised him by making this snack so delicious.

"Well? This snack...who did?" Li Chengye couldn't help asking.

But Mei Xiang bowed slightly and replied, "Young Master, this snack is done by me!"

"You made it?" This surprised Li Chengye. He looked up and down at Mei Xiang, nodded and said, "Yeah, the taste is good, other...you take it down."

"Young Master?" Unexpectedly, Li Chengye reacted so, the girl raised her head and looked at him in surprise.

Li Chengye smiled and said, "Send it to his wife to taste. As a son, he should respect her so much food. Go."

Mei Xiang lowered her head and said obediently: "No."

When she left with a snack, Li Chengye snorted coldly, stood up, stood in front of the window, and looked at the light pink towards the main house. Li Chengye clenched his hands tightly and loosened again, but a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Ye'er, there is something that my father needs to ask you." On this day, Li Chengye was called to the study by his father again. As soon as he entered the door, Li Cunyi said these words with a serious look on his face.

Li Chengye lowered his head and said, "Please make it clear by my father."

Li Cunyi stood up and walked around the room for a while before stopping in front of his son and asked, "Ye'er, do you know what is the matter of the inheritance of the great clan? "

"Did my father mean... the descendants?" Li Chengye understood a little.

Li Cunyi nodded and said, "That's right, how important this offspring is to you and the Li family? I believe that you should understand it without saying it for your father, right?"

"Yes." Li Chengye's eyes flashed and he pursed his thin lips.

"This should not be reminded by your father, but you lost your mother since childhood. I believe that this matter is not considered well. I think you are the eldest son of my Li family and now you are in a key position. How can you have only a monogamous wife? It would be fine if you could have children by just them. Now, after so long, you still have no children... Ye'er, as the hope of the Li clan, you should not be willful." In the last sentence, Li Cunyi was already serious.

Li Chengye's mouth was a little dry, but he could only say respectfully: "It's my son who was wrong."

"It's good if you know your mistake. I know that you have been married for less than two years. It's the time when you are young. It's common sense. But you are the eldest son of the Li family, but you can't continue to have a love for your children. This is what. If at the end of the year, your wife will have no news of her children. My father will make the decision for you and marry a peaceful wife who can give birth to a good wife. You should be mentally prepared for this matter first. At that time, you must not do it will. You must know that although the inheritance of this great clan is important, whether the child is prosperous or not is the standard of choice." Li Cunyi and his son looked directly at him and said the above words.

"Yes, my son understands." Li Chengye lowered his head and responded. Seeing this, Li Cunyifang nodded with satisfaction and asked him to go out.

When Li Chengye came out of his father's study, the palms of his hands were already bleeding.

In fact, Li Chengye is not bad at being a woman. But in this incident, if there is no trace of the stepmother, he would not believe it at all.

This woman is really amazing. She can even persuade her father again and again, blow the wind beside her pillow, making her feel embarrassed.

If I really marry a fair wife, I am afraid that there will be no peace in the back house. She will definitely participate in this fair wife candidate.

But I can only endure this matter. When he can obtain the power of the Li family one day, I see how storms this woman can make!

When he returned to his courtyard and saw his wife, Li Chengye looked at him with a gloomy face for a long time.

"Husband, what's wrong with you?" Seeing that your husband was in a bad mood, Wang Jieting stepped forward, stroked his cheek and asked softly.

"Ah!" Then she was suddenly picked up by Li Chengye and screamed in shock.

"Husband, what are you going to do? It's not dark yet..." Seeing Li Chengye holding her and walking towards the dormitory, she was shocked and embarrassed and said anxiously.

"Madam, I want a child, give me a child!" Li Chengye put her in the account, and then ignored his objection and poured in, and the account gauze dangled down to block the endless spring scenery inside.

That night, Li Chengye was more rough than usual, and he was even more sympathetic in his actions.

Knowing that Li Chengye was in a bad mood, she could only try her best to endure it. Only after he fell asleep, Wang Jieting lay on his side and shed two lines of tears.

The next day, Li Chengye summoned Zhou Zhu and discussed with him.

After hearing this, Zhou Zhu pondered for a moment, and said, "This is because of the rush in Li Gong's heart, and it is not all about the wind on the side of the lady's pillow."

"Lord, think about it, the situation is subtle now, and the Li family is on the front line of success or failure. When Li is under this pressure, he is of course anxious. He is naturally a little dissatisfied with his lord and temper. The lord must not force himself to do so at this time."

"I know this, but how can this be resolved?" Li Chengye understood that he was put on great hope, but after becoming an official, there was no big highlight. Instead, he got into some trouble, which would naturally make his father hesitate and dissatisfied.

Li Chengye was not aware that the situation in his previous life was very good. He first broke Jishui County and then Taisu County, proving his luck and talent. Li Cunyi naturally valued it. He could not blow the wind from any pillow, so he passed on the Li family to him.

Now that nothing has been achieved, there will naturally be a different attitude. Many of the Li family's resources have not been transferred to him, which is also one of the changes brought about by historical turning points.

Zhou Zhu thought for a while and said, "For the sake of the present plan, I am waiting for the imperial edict to come back. This matter was sent by the lord. If it can be done, Mr. Li will definitely be more serious and will not interfere with the lord everywhere."

"As for Mei Xiang, the lord actually doesn't have to hesitate and just send it back. Just say that there are not many people around the wife, so he will give it to the wife to serve him."

Li Chengye nodded and said, "Mr. Zhou said that with you, I feel much more at ease."

At this moment, several people hurried in and kowtowed and said, "Lord, the messenger sent to Jinling has returned and has already received the imperial edict."

Li Chengye was immediately overjoyed and stood up: "Where? Come to see my father quickly."

At this time, in the main courtyard of Li's house, a woman whispered in a side hall, but suddenly a loud slap sounded.

"Mei Xiang, Madam, you are giving you so long, so how can you repay your wife? Don't forget that your contract is still in the hands of your wife, and your younger brothers and sisters are in the hands of your wife..." The middle-aged woman scolded in a low voice, but accompanied by the girl's crying in a low voice.

"You little bitch, dare you cry? The lady is very kind to you. She paid money for your gambling father, took care of your younger brother and sister, and arranged a new identity for you. You must be content with being a human being. If you don't do your best to do your work for your wife, you will be seldom..." The middle-aged woman said this and paused.

The girl screamed, but soon someone covered her mouth and couldn't make any sound: "You little bitch, you dare to scream..."

At this moment, a maid came in in a hurry, as if she had entered the tent and said something.

At this time, the tent moved and called the middle-aged woman in. After the middle-aged woman entered, she glanced at the maid and sneered: "Are you sent back to serve?"

I came out again and went out. After a while, a few people came in. Some people held Meixiang's head and feet, and some people poured wine into her mouth. In just a moment, Meixiang was already unconscious.

"What should I do? I don't need to say anything? You all speak tightly, have you heard?" The middle-aged woman swept at several people.

Several servants said, "We are all people who come to the Li family with the lady. We will not do the same thing as the lady. Manager Wei, please don't worry."

"It's good. When no one pays attention, throw it into the lake. It's over." Clapping his hands, Manager Wei said again: "There is also the one in Li's house. You don't have to forget this."

"I remember the little one." Several people expressed their understanding, then raised Mei Xiang and walked out.
