Li Man'er expected it to be true. When the family banquet was coming to an end, Xiao Qiniang stood up and said, "Father, seeing that the New Year is coming soon, my daughter wants to buy some things for the New Year. Although there are things in charge at home, the shopping is
We don’t have to worry about it ourselves, but my daughter wants to give Sister Man’er a New Year gift, and gifts given to others are always bad and fake, so she wants to choose them herself.”
Xiao Rudi seemed to be very supportive, "Yes, you should be more careful when going out on the street and bring more guards."
Xiao Qiniang said to Li Shu again: "Master Hou, I still have a favor for you."
Li Shu's eyebrows skipped a beat, "Miss Seventh, if you have something to say, you might as well say it directly."
"At our daughter's house, we like to go shopping together. Sister Man'er has been in Mobei for so long, and she hasn't gone outside the government office yet. I thought, why don't we walk around the streets together tomorrow. Although Mobei
It's not as prosperous as the capital city, but the customs and customs are very fresh, and I don't think my sister Man'er has ever seen it before."
"This is a good idea." Xiao Rudi agreed very much, "I'm bored staying at home all the time. Let's go to the streets together tomorrow!"
Xiao Qiniang looked at Li Shu and asked for his opinion, "Master Hou?"
"Then go!" Li Shu said, "We need to bring more people."
"Thank you, Lord Marquis. Don't worry, Lord Marquis. I will definitely bring Sister Man'er back unharmed."
Xiao Rudi also said: "Don't worry, Mr. Hou, I will send a small team of people to follow them, nothing will happen to them."
Li Shu nodded, "Parents are always worried about their children, but it makes the general laugh."
"The Marquis is a loving father, I can understand it." Xiao Rudi sighed, "The Marquis and I are different after all. I am very strict in disciplining my children. Let's talk about Si'er, I am just such a legitimate son.
, I hired a master for him since he was a child, and he practiced Sanjiu in winter and Sanfu in summer. Whether it was sword and horse kung fu, riding and archery, or art of war, he did everything right. I have always felt that only by enduring hardship can one become a master.
So I threw him into the military camp when he was ten years old, and I followed him to the battlefield when he was fourteen years old, and he suffered numerous major and minor injuries."
Xiao Qiniang lowered her eyelids and didn't know what she was thinking. She put the tea cup to her lips and lowered her head to drink tea. She seemed to be in a low mood.
Li Man'er keenly felt a trace of sadness from her body. Was she feeling sorry for her brother, or something else.
Li Man'er felt that Xiao Qiniang's reaction was questionable.
She looked like she was trying her best to hide something.
"It is a blessing for a child to be born into a family like ours. If you don't think about progress every day and only know about having fun, how can the family fortune be passed on? It will be ruined in less than two generations."
Every sentence is a wise and wise saying from an old father who is planning for his son and worrying about future generations.
Li Shu felt the same way, and couldn't help but think of his legitimate son Li Qingyun. Qingyun was also twelve years old, and he was quite good at reading, but his temper was a little softer, and he was just a showman in bow and horse, and he had never practiced seriously.
There are many women in the family, and they are all willing to pamper him. As long as Qingyun complains or complains about being tired, both Cui and Guo will feel distressed and will not be allowed to practice immediately.
The Li family is a military general, how could they lose their ability to start a family? Even if Qingyun wants to take the imperial examination and become an official in the future, he should be a versatile person in both civil and military affairs, not a lamb hiding under the wings.
Li Shu made up his mind that when he returned to Beijing, he would definitely find some good players in the camp and let Qingyun start training as soon as possible.
"The general is far-sighted and I admire him."
"Young Master Marquis's words really upset me. Just by looking at Man'er, I can tell that Mr. Marquis has a good way of educating his son. I think the prince is still young, but in a few years, he will definitely be a hero who will be famous all over the world."
The two blew rainbow farts at each other, which made the atmosphere lively.
Finally, Li Shu and his daughter left the table first, while Xiao Rudi called his two children to the small hall and talked with them for a long time.
As for what was said, it is unknown.
After Li Shu had breakfast the next day, he sent someone to call Li Man'er over.
"Father looks good, much better than before. Can my daughter take your pulse?"
Li Shu waved his hand and said, "There's no rush in this matter. I have something important to tell you."
"You say."
Li Shu coughed twice, and Qin Si and Lao Sun retreated.
When Liu Ya saw this, she could only leave with him.
When only the father and daughter were left in the house, Li Shu asked her: "Miss Xiao Qi wants to invite you to the street today?"
"Exactly, didn't father hear about it yesterday?"
"Man'er, the Xiao family has no good intentions. They are just plotting against you. You must be more careful when you go out and don't fall into their trap."
Li Man'er was secretly surprised and thought to herself, could it be that the scumbag father was reborn? Otherwise, why did he become so caring about his daughter just one night ago?
"Also, for a woman outside, her reputation is the most important. Only if her body is upright can she not be taken advantage of by others."
Yes, it was just a fantasy.
The scumbag dad is still the same scumbag dad who always likes to wrong the original owner, a child who has no biological mother.
It's a pity that she is not as gentle as the original owner.
"My daughter knows exactly what the Xiao family has planned. Even her body is upright. Does her father mean that her body is not upright? Is she not clean for her own good?" Li Man'er had a straight face and snorted before saying: "The daughter is the most important thing.
A well-behaved person, no matter how bad Mrs. Guo is, she is still my nominal mother. After she passed away, my daughter kept her filial piety honestly. If it wasn't to save you, why would she go thousands of miles away to let others plot against her? "
Li Shu almost choked to death. In order to save his face, he had to expose Li Man'er's background. "I don't know who was chasing Young Master Rong all over the street back then."
Li Man'er's eyes suddenly burst into murderous flames.
"Did father see it with his own eyes?"
Li Shu didn't dare to look at her. He had only heard about it but had not seen it with his own eyes.
"People say that where there is a stepmother, there is a stepfather, and it is indeed true. If I am so obsessed with Tong Qiao, how can I break off the engagement with him easily? I don't like him at all, and I don't want to marry into the Duke of Rongguo. Like
How can a mother-in-law like the eldest princess be easy to get along with? Only the second sister likes her, and eagerly framed her own sister and wanted to replace her."
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Li Shu was angry, his voice rising.
"Am I talking nonsense?" Li Man'er sneered, "Since it is nonsense, then let me ask my father, why did Mr. Guo send me away back then?"
"That's because your sister is in poor health and you are in conflict with each other, so you have to be sent away to let her rest for some time. Your mother is afraid that you will be wronged in the countryside, so she lets you go back to your grandfather's house to avoid you.
Why not be satisfied?"
Li Maner wished he could split open Li Shu's head with one palm to see what was inside.
"You only believe this kind of nonsense if your horoscopes are in conflict. Then why did I get along with my second sister for many years after I came back? How come she is fine? Could it be that my horoscopes have changed?"
Li Shu glared, "That's nonsense. There's no way you can change your horoscope."
