Li Cunzhi said to Chen Tianhua:

"Hua Zhi, why don't you just openly marry Xu Yunyuan into your family? The family can be placed in Shanghai or Meishan Town. This will be a good thing for you and her. Give Xu Yunyuan a status and save her mental state.

unbalanced."

The purpose of this remark was to tell Chen Tianhua why Xu Yunyuan used the Xu family's money to compete with Li Pinzhang for the Huasheng Textile Factory. Her drunkard's intention was not to drink, but to demonstrate to the Li family.

She always believed that the reason why Chen Tianhua did not dare to marry her publicly was because he was afraid that the Li family would not agree and publicly oppose him.

Li Cunzhi has been thinking about Xu Yunyuan in the past few days. Why is she secretly competing with Li Pinzhang? If Chen Tianhua is not behind it, then there is only one motive. Her resentment of the Li family is rooted in her wanting to win status.

"Don't worry, I will complete the work on Qianhua's side and her mother's side. You can make arrangements to prepare." Seeing that Chen Tianhua did not answer, Li Cunzhi took the initiative to take on the task of persuading key people.

"My son-in-law, Tianhua, would like to thank my father-in-law for this, but this matter cannot be rushed. The mother and daughter are still angry." Chen Tianhua knelt down and kowtowed respectfully.

The father-in-law of his wife actually proposed the matter of taking a concubine. It was obvious that Li Cunzhi had taken great pains to treat him, and this gift was quite flattering.

You must know that if this matter spreads, the world will laugh out loud. In order to please the son-in-law, he actually encouraged him to take a concubine and helped him become a daughter.

Isn't it a strange thing to do ideological work in the world?

Of course, Chen Tianhua had to remind his father-in-law not to act too hastily, otherwise, the concubinage issue within the Li family has not been settled yet, and he would be asking for trouble if he joined in the fun again.

"Of course, I will find a suitable time to explain. What I am telling you now is that I have no problem with this matter. You can tell Xu Yunyuan about this. From now on, don't have any resentments."

Li Cunzhi's move kills two birds with one stone.

On the one hand, he was showing favor to Chen Tianhua, not only supporting his charge into battle and constantly expanding his strength, but he was also very concerned about all aspects of his beloved son-in-law, and was actually helping him solve problems.

On the other hand, if Chen Tianhua is allowed to marry Xu Yunyuan into the family and become a veritable second wife, then it would be inappropriate for her to show her face in the world, and it would be even more inappropriate for her to be in charge of a secret service agency like the Military Investigation Department.

Li Cunzhi just wanted to do everything possible to restrict Xu Yunyuan and not arouse Chen Tianhua's resentment. This trick should be effective. Although it undermined his own dignity and authority, he had no choice but to do it in order to stabilize the overall situation of the Li family in the future.

"Thank you, father-in-law, for your thoughtfulness. My son-in-law understands!" Chen Tianhua kowtowed again in thanks, then stood up and sat down.

He naturally understood in his heart that the purpose of Li Cunzhi's move was not to truly support his public concubinage, but actually to take the opportunity to restrict Xu Yunyuan.

Of course he couldn't refuse his father-in-law's kindness, so he could only wait and think about it in the long term.

"My dear son-in-law, my father-in-law has something to say, and I will advise you to sharpen your edge appropriately and not to expand everywhere. If you make too many enemies, people will be afraid of you. In the future, not only the Japanese, but also the imperial court will be afraid of you, and you will be in trouble."

!" Li Cunzhi changed the topic and focused on the expansion of his power.

After hearing this, Chen Tianhua was silent for a moment. Suddenly, he raised his head and said word by word: "If I die, don't worry about the flood."

Li Cunzhi looked at Chen Tianhua in shock, as if he had just seen a true generational hero.

If I die, don't worry about the flood! These words struck Li Cunzhi's nerves like thunder.

The meaning of this statement can be interpreted as: When I am alive, I naturally have the responsibility to protect the people I should protect. If I die, no matter how many and important things are, what do they have to do with me?

Li Cunzhi chewed on Chen Tianhua's words in his heart, which shocked him so much. Looking at this son-in-law who was both familiar and unfamiliar, he really couldn't figure out his true thoughts.

Is there an element of threat in this?

It seems that I still lack understanding of him, or that my understanding cannot keep up with the speed of his changes. People are changing or changing every moment.

The young boy he was eight years ago, but the man in front of him was a general who commanded a lot of attention and was decisive in killing. The huge difference between the two made Li Cunzhi feel confused for a moment.

After trying to calm down, Li Cunzhi said:

"Okay, it's getting late. You should go see your mother-in-law. They are both waiting for you in Nanyuan. We, father-in-law and son-in-law, will talk to each other another day in the study room of Dongyuan."

"Yes, father-in-law, my son-in-law will go first." Chen Tianhua bowed and bowed, then turned and strode out of the atrium, heading towards Nanyuan.

Looking at Chen Tianhua's back as he stepped across the threshold of the nave, Li Cunzhi sighed silently and leaned back on the chair tiredly.

He suddenly realized that when talking to this third son-in-law, not only could he not find any dignity as a father-in-law, but he felt very tired and slightly nervous.

What's going on?

Li Cunzhi has been a leader of troops all his life and has fought in battles. Naturally, he knows that a small soldier, an officer or a general, can be defeated and killed in an instant on the battlefield.

And Chen Tianhua, who was standing in front of him now, had an inexplicable evil aura and majesty about him, which was always released inadvertently. Even I, who had been on the battlefield for a long time, found his aura to be intimidating.

In Nanyuan, Bai Suling was chatting with her daughter. Her expression was relaxed. She no longer had the sad face at the beginning of the year, because apart from the addition of a concubine in the Li Mansion, nothing else had changed. She was still in charge of the house, with the fourth concubine.

Almost every morning I come to Nanyuan to say hello.

She knew in her heart that all this was because she had a good daughter and an excellent and powerful son-in-law, which made her master Li Cunzhi value her so much that he strictly controlled the second and fourth bedrooms in the house, not to mention the housekeeper and servants.

She repeatedly emphasized to Li Shuzhen that she should pay more attention to Tianhua, as the future lives of both mother and daughter would be entirely entrusted to Chen Tianhua.

"My son-in-law, Tianhua, greets my mother-in-law!" Chen Tianhua knelt on his knees, stretched out his hands, and kowtowed to Bai Suling respectfully.

"Oh, come up and talk. I haven't seen you for four months, and I'm tanned." Bai Sulingdanfeng glanced at Chen Tianhua and said with concern.

"Thank you for your concern, mother-in-law. Everything is fine with my son-in-law. As long as my mother-in-law is happy and healthy, it is our blessing." Chen Tianhua stood up and sat down, complimenting.

"Okay, I have Qian'er by my mother's side from time to time, and Xiaohu and Xiaoquan, my darling grandchildren, I am very happy, don't worry!" Bai Suling smiled happily.

"That's good!"

"..."

While Chen Tianhua was chatting with his mother-in-law, he noticed that the crow's feet at the corners of Bai Suling's eyes had increased. At the age of forty-three, although she took good care of herself, time still left its mark.
