The shallow moonlight filled the courtyard.

The Emei moon is like a thin silver hook hanging in the sky, and its light is of course not bright.

But the glow was just right here at this moment.

Not clear or dark.

Not thick or light.

Just like the father and son sitting here at this time, there is still some distance between them, but their words have gradually become casual.

Just like this pot of tea that has been drunk.

Without the bitterness of the tea head and the strong fragrance in the tea, it is a little light, but it is just right to quench thirst.

The early summer wind blew the red lanterns, swaying the light a little hazy, and shaking the expression on Li Wenhan's face into a shaking state.

His expression was still nervous.

His eyes towards Li Chenan were also full of expectations.

But at this time, Li Chenan's mouth curled up and said something that disappointed him:

"Reading... Actually, I'm not that material."

"I really can't recite the Three Character Classic, let alone the Four Books and Five Classics."

"I'm afraid this will disappoint you, but I'll think about it... I'm born with a good idea of ​​my talent. Although I can't read well, I can do something else."

"For example, doing business!"

When Li Chenan said this, his tone was still as calm as the moonlight, but Li Wenhan did not deny it as directly as before.

He picked up the teacup and pondered for a moment, but still felt unwilling.

I thought to myself that this child could even write poems that could enter the "Hundred Psalms of Ning's Poetry Collection", how could he not even memorize the Three Character Classic?

He said this, probably because he was resisting those actions he had done before.

In his heart, reading is the only future!

Nothing else.

"You are now a human being. In theory, you should not say anything more as a father."

"It's just that in today's society, the status of scholars is still higher than that of merchants."

He put down the teacup and said earnestly: "The so-called "all things are inferior to those who are good at studying, scholars, farmers, industry and commerce are always the first."

"Actually, I'm telling you this. It's not because my father really wants you to make the lintel of the three bedrooms of our Li family taller and brighter, nor to make a fuss about the other two bedrooms, but for your own good!"

"After all, only by becoming an official can you have the opportunity to win a wife and a son, and you can be respected by all people."

Li Chenan listened very seriously, just like when he was in the countryside when he was a child in his previous life, his father and childhood self also said similar things.

But the father's words were more direct??—

If you want to get out of the farming world, if you want to think about such a hard life facing the loess and backs against the sky, then you will try your best to study!

Otherwise... I will come back to raise cattle and pigs for me!

The truth is the same, but Li Chenan in his previous life was indeed afraid of those hard days, so he really tried his best to study and walked out of the endless mountain.

But now, he really can't take the exam!

"My father was very worried, but now the winemaking workshop is about to be completed, and the arrow is already on the string and has to be fired."

Li Chenan decided not to get into this topic with his father anymore, and he said again:.o

"I have invested a lot of money. If I don't want it, the losses will be immeasurable, so brewing is also the most urgent thing to do at the moment."

"You think about it. If you want, move to the winery and wait for a while... I'm afraid it will be a bit long, and you will move back after the tide is calm."

"how?"

This is my son’s stubbornness!

Why……!

Li Wenhan sighed deeply in his heart, thinking that his son could come back and sit here and talk to him calmly, which seemed enough.

Why bother to force so much again!

"The Huo family in Guangling is not as simple as they see on the surface."

"Huo Baiyang was a former classmate of his father. He was scheming and very good at engaging in the camp. Therefore, he is only thirty-six years old, but he has become the youngest minister of the Zhanshi Mansion and has become the prince's close minister."

"In addition... his wife is the daughter of Zuo Bifu, the current assistant minister of the Ministry of War. The Zuo family is also quite powerful, not in Yujing City, but in Yingzhou in the north."

"There are 48 males in the Huo family, including twelve of whom live in temples, all of whom serve as officials in various places, such as Huo Chuanming, the Tongzong of Guangling City, and Huo Guang, Huo Guang, the magistrate of Huo County, and Huo Gang, the magistrate of Yi County, etc.."

"The Huo family is a model of business and good business, and now it has gradually become more sharp. Your wine is better than the Huo family... This contradiction must be severe... To resolve this situation, I will write a letter to your second uncle for my father."

"If your second uncle is willing to help you, it will be fine if you think it will be fine."

Li Chenan thought about it. Now the other two Li family members live in Kyoto for a long time, and they have not even had letters to each other with this third house.

Among them, something must have happened that I didn’t know, otherwise in this society with a strong clan concept, people from the same clan should have been united.

His current father was also a proud person, but for these things, the first thing he thought of was to seek help from his second uncle Li Wenhou.

In addition to his understanding of the Huo family, the father was not good at inquiring about the news in his memory, which was enough to show that his father knew some of the things he was doing now and had even been worried about it.

Li Wenhan's words once again touched a string in Li Chenan's heart.

"I can solve this problem myself."

"Prince Liu? Prefect Liu can help you, but the foundation of Prefect Liu is too shallow."

"If the Huo family cannot do anything to you in Guangling City because of the prefect Liu, then Huo Baiyang from Kyoto will definitely intervene. At that time... I'm afraid that the prefect Liu will not be able to protect himself!"

"I will follow the arrangements for my father. I will write a letter for my father. I will give it to your second uncle!"

"As for moving to your workshop... let your mother and your sister come over for the time being."

After saying this, Li Wenhan stood up and left.

Li Chenan did not stop him. First, this was his father's wish, and second, he also wanted to see if there was any brotherhood between his uncle and the third wife.

It is understandable that his father decided to stay, after all, he still has a concubine living in the West Courtyard.

With his relationship with that concubine, he certainly knew that he would not take the concubine to the winery as well.

After a stick of incense, Li Wenhan walked back.

When he came back, he was quite fast, and his body was much straighter than before.

"Tomorrow, I will send this letter to my father early in the morning, and I will receive a reply from your second uncle in about twenty days."

Li Wenhan sat down, but there was no look of relief on his face. He still forced a smile and asked: "Tomorrow, there will be a Dragon Boat Festival literary party. I will invite you from Zhang Yuanzheng of Qianmo Academy for my father. Maybe I will attend?"

Li Chenan shook his head, "There are really many things tomorrow, so I won't go."

"this……"

Li Wenhan showed a hint of disappointment on his face. He hoped that his son would become famous at tomorrow's literary conference!

In this way, the entire Guangling City should know how talented his son is, and should know that this son is not a fool, but a truly knowledgeable man!

"All right,"

"This family...you are always the eldest son of the third wife of the Li family. If you are willing, this family is still your home and you can come back at any time!"
Chapter completed!
