After a while, Li Man'er heard a loud crashing sound coming from the room. Less than a minute later, Li Shu's roar passed through the wall, shaking several people outside the door.
After a while, Li Nian's muttering voice came out, but he didn't hear it clearly. It was obvious that Li Nian had not lost his mind, and he also knew that walls have ears, so he deliberately lowered his voice to talk to Li Shu.
Li Shu first scolded the man named Xiao angrily, and then scolded the thief in a loud voice. The people outside the door had expressionless faces, as if they were used to this scene.
Li Man'er doesn't care at all. He likes to embarrass people, so let him scold him. As long as he doesn't scold himself, feel free to scold him.
Li Shu's personal guards were used to it.
Only Qin Si showed a slightly surprised expression, but seeing that everyone else was so calm, he had to pretend to be accustomed to it and try not to show his timidity.
After a while, Li Nian's voice sounded again, "Man'er, come in."
Li Maner opened the door and walked in.
The house was a bit messy, with a lot of things scattered on the floor and water stains.
Li Shu's hair on his forehead was also wet, but the clothes on his body were dry. He must have changed his clothes.
It seemed that Li Nian couldn't wake him up, so he simply found an extreme method to wake him up.
He just poured a basin of water on it, which really gave him an advantage.
Li Niandao: "Your father already knows."
Li Maner said nothing, thinking that he cursed so loudly that anyone with long ears could hear it.
"This is the letter left by Xiao Ruqin."
Li Man'er took it and took a look, and immediately laughed out loud. The Xiao family's shamelessness really refreshed her understanding that there are still such shameless people in this world.
Xiao Ruqin said in the letter that although the old city was a city, it was impregnable and would not fall down even without the Xiao family's army.
Although barbarians would invade every year during the Chinese New Year, they only dared to harass and did not dare to make any big moves, so Li Shu could rest assured.
Of course, what they said was beautiful. When Li Shu came to Mobei under the imperial edict, the responsibility of guarding should have been handed over to Li Shu. It is common for the army to change defenses. It should not have been delayed for so long.
Because Li Shu was in poor health before, this was delayed until today.
He also specifically emphasized that they were not leading troops to play tricks, but taking advantage of Li Shu's opportunity to lead people to defend the city, they checked all the fortress entrances near the old city before they could feel at ease.
Finally, they said with a smile on their face that Li Shu had left a team of men, all of whom were experienced veterans. With their assistance, Li Shu could defend the city without any worries.
Li Man'er folded the letter and put it away, and said loudly: "This Xiao family is really telling lies with open eyes. He said he left a team of people, but it's a pity that there are only 300 old, weak, sick and disabled people."
How could Li Shu not know this? Just now, Li Nian had already repeated all the words of Lu Dakuan. A lame man who couldn't even ride a horse was brazenly talking about a team of people!
He was angry with the Xiao family for plotting against him, but when he heard Li Man'er's words, he became even more angry. He felt that Li Man'er was just laughing at him, and immediately cursed: "You are a rebellious girl, a disaster star."
Li Nian was stunned, with a look of surprise on his face, "Brother, are you confused in your sleep? What does this matter have to do with Man'er? Why are you scolding her?"
Li Man'er sneered and did not take Li Shu's words to heart. He just said calmly: "Third uncle, don't try to persuade me. It would be bad if you get implicated by me and it will bring disaster to Chi Yu."
"You bastard." Li Shu became angry because there were no outsiders here. He didn't even bother to pretend, so he picked up the tureen on the table and threw it towards Li Man'er.
It was as if Li Man'er was his vent.
"That's enough." Li Nian, with quick eyes and quick hands, stood in front of Li Man'er. He flipped the tureen smoothly, changed its direction, and fell to the ground with a clang, breaking into pieces.
"Brother, how did you become like this? What's wrong with Man'er? I escorted her all the way to a place like Mobei for whom? Was it to save you? If it weren't for Man'er, you would have died long ago.
Where is the chance to show off and lose my temper in front of her?"
Li Shu's eyes were red, and he pointed at Li Nian and said: "Get out of the way, I will beat this unfilial daughter to death today."
"Unfilial?" Li Nian laughed angrily, "Okay, okay, I don't know that saving your life is unfilial. You should tell me where Man'er is unfilial."
Li Shu thought he was righteous and said: "She was unfilial. She was the one who killed Guo. That was her mother. She suffered some injustices, so what? Also, third brother, you don't know that your sister-in-law is dead."
Not long after, she took advantage of me to go to war and secretly married Zhaoer to the Liang family, the Liang family whose wives had died many times."
Li Nian looked at Li Shu with incredulous eyes, "Brother, how can it be that Man'er can decide the matter of marriage? If the mother doesn't nod, how can Zhaoer get married in a filial piety?"
"Yes, even if mother agrees, she dares to say that there is no handwriting of hers in it."
Li Man'er walked out from behind Li Nian, with an expression on his face that was neither sad nor happy, "Third uncle, why are you talking to him so much? In my father's heart, I am superfluous, and he wishes I would die soon, so
She took possession of the dowry left by my mother. Guo worked with her parents to harm me in Yaowang Temple, almost causing me to lose my innocence, and married her ungrateful nephew. Back then at the eldest princess’s residence, she even sang harmony with her good daughter Li Zhaoer.
They slandered my innocence and made people laugh at me, and I almost married that ignorant Geng Sangong. In my father's eyes, these are all my mother's good for me, and they are not a bad thing."
Although Li Nian had heard Li Man'er say this a long time ago, he still found it unbelievable when he heard it now.
"Brother, is it true?"
Li Shu stood with his hands behind his back, "Marriage is an important matter, which is the order of the parents. According to the matchmaker, the child of the Guo family is not bad, and he is also her cousin. There is nothing wrong with the two families getting closer."
"That's enough!" Although Li Nian had been away from the capital for a long time, he also knew what Guo's nephew was like, so he immediately asked: "In that case, why don't you let Zhao'er marry her cousin? They will be married until they get married.
How about we get married? The Ning family’s children are Man’er’s cousins!”
Li Shu's eyes were a little evasive, but when he thought of Li Man's identity, he immediately became proud, "Third brother, this is our family matter. Although you are her uncle, it is not easy for you to interfere."
After all, we are across the room, so we should avoid it.
Li Nian sneered and turned to look at Li Man'er, "You shouldn't have come! Man'er, let him fend for himself in Mobei."
"What did you say!"
"Quack!" Li Man'er waved her hand, and a faint smoke drifted out from her sleeves. Li Shu originally wanted to teach Li Nian a few words as the eldest brother, but after smelling the smoke, his body suddenly became numb.
He felt weak, rolled his eyes and fell to the ground, not knowing what happened to him.
