Chapter 87: The bait that has been set up long ago
Li Jingrui's face darkened.
"It's okay, it's okay, no more." Zhou was so frightened that she quickly changed her words.
Li Jingrui softened his expression and said, "Mother should know what her son is asking for. The Fang family's incense is worth a fortune every day, and the Zhou family's entire property cannot be seen. Even if Fang Qingshi doesn't recognize it,
This child, if you, as mother-in-law, suppress her, even if she dies, it will still be the fault of the Li family!"
Zhou felt happy at the thought of being able to cure Fang Qingshi and gritted her teeth: "What if she wants to make a fuss and go to the capital?"
"Mother, I am a dead person." Li Jingrui said word by word.
Although Mrs. Zhou was afraid of such a son, she was even more happy!
Look, this is an official. It sounds so nice to call her mother!
Instead of going back to her parents' home to tell her brother and sister-in-law, Mrs. Zhou followed Li Jingrui on the carriage and led the way to Li Jinghe's house in Luwu County. Li Jingrui gave her ten taels of silver, and Mrs. Zhou didn't care that she was already pregnant, so she ran out to buy something.
After the wine and food came back, the kitchen was very busy.
During the meal, Li Jingrui told her not to show her face to the outside world so that the neighbors would see that she was pregnant, but she lost everything by one mistake.
Mr. Zhou obeyed Li Jingrui's words. Who gave this son the ability?
The couple made up their minds to wait for Li Jinghe here.
Li Jinghe was counting the days to wait for Duan Chengde at home, and finally Duan Chengde arrived. He just had to drag Fang Qingshi to tell Duan Chengde about the escort.
"Brother Duan, let's take Jing He to be a bodyguard, and we can make more money for the family." Fang Qingshi said.
Duan Chengde was reluctant in his heart, but when his boss spoke, he could only nod and agree: "Okay, brother Jinghe, come with me to the escort agency tomorrow."
"You can go now." Li Jinghe said immediately.
That night, Duan Chengde drove back to Luwu County. Li Jinghe sat in the carriage and thought, "No matter where he goes to escort escorts, he will get money." Seeing Duan Chengde's silent expression, he secretly pouted and asked for it himself.
After several attempts, Fang Qingshi just said that and the matter was settled, villain!
When they arrived at Luwu County, Li Jinghe got off the carriage and said, "Brother Duan, I'll come to the escort agency early tomorrow morning and take my leave first."
Duan Chengde was really too lazy to talk to Li Jinghe, so he nodded and agreed. Seeing Li Jinghe going to the west city, he frowned slightly, his boss couldn't get out of the Li family!
Full of joy, Li Jinghe bought two pancakes and half a roast chicken at the street corner, hummed a little tune and went home. When he got to the door, he took out the key and found that the door lock was missing!
With my heart in my throat, I pushed the door hard and found that it was bolted from the inside. It was a house bought with real money!
Is this okay? Furious, he banged on the door and shouted: "Open the door! Open the door!"
Ms. Zhou, who was still eating in the room, looked at Li Jingrui with some fear. Li Jingrui winked, Ms. Zhou stood up and walked out: "Jinghe, don't kick down the door. It's coming, it's coming."
Hearing Zhou's voice, Li Jinghe's anger burned to the point of his forehead. He gritted his teeth and waited for Zhou to open the door. He stepped in and grabbed Zhou's collar: "You are really shameless! This is what you deserve."
Is this a place? Do you really think I’m easy to bully? We’ll recognize you when you recognize me, and throw us away when you say you want to.”
"No, no, no." Ms. Zhou was really scared, grabbing Li Jinghe's arm with both hands, without her usual domineering look.
Li Jinghe threw away his hand: "Get out! This is my home! Get out!"
Mrs. Zhou quickly ran into the house.
Li Jinghe was furious. He turned back, locked the door and strode into the house: "Ms. Zhou! I am the only one who can make the decision in the Li family now. You must go back to the Zhou family to enjoy the blessings! Don't force me!"
"Really? You can make the decision now?" Li Jingrui walked out of the back room and looked at Li Jinghe with cold eyes.
Li Jinghe heard Li Jingrui's movements and felt uneasy. He looked at Li Jingrui who came out in horror. The roast chicken and pancakes in his hands fell to the ground. He backed away slowly, his mind spinning rapidly.
, he knew that the Li Jingrui he heard in the capital was his eldest brother, and he was not dead!
"Brother!" Li Jinghe fell to his knees on the ground, tears pouring out: "Brother, our life was so miserable when you were not at home."
As she cried, she understood in her heart why Zhou looked so afraid of herself just now. It turned out that she was waiting for her here!
Li Jingrui sat calmly on the chair and listened. Mrs. Zhou next to her lowered her head, fearing that Li Jingrui would get angry. After all, he was not strong-willed and had someone else's seed in his belly. Everything he said was wrong.
After Li Jinghe finished crying, Li Jingrui stretched out his hand to help Li Jinghe stand up: "Second brother, it's true that my mother gave birth to us. Moreover, the poor family has everything going wrong. As long as the family lives a prosperous life, is it difficult for a mother to be kind and a son to be filial?
?”
Li Jinghe looked up at Li Jingrui: "Is the eldest brother in high school?"
"Yes, Tanhua." Li Jingrui patted Li Jinghe on the shoulder: "Sit down and talk."
Exploring flowers!
Although Li Jinghe doesn't study, he still knows that the third place chosen by the emperor in the imperial examination is the third best, which means that the eldest brother is indeed prosperous!
In front of the superior elder brother, all the grievances were suppressed in his heart. He knew that he really had to rely on his elder brother to help him to live a good life. As Tanhualang's biological brother, how low could his status be?
"Brother, are you here to pick us up and take us to the capital? Fang Qingshi, that bastard, is teasing my mother and sending Xiangzhi and Xiangcui to someone else's house to be slaves!" Li Jinghe's words changed direction.
Li Jingrui glanced at Li Jinghe lightly: "You are smart. I faked my death because the apple of King Jin's eye fell in love with me, and I couldn't make it public when I came back. I wanted to deal with Fang Qingshi without anyone noticing.
Oh, now I have changed my mind."
Li Jinghe's mood fluctuated between highs and lows: "Why did you change your mind?"
"The Fang family has opened an incense shop and a Da'an escort agency. You should know about this, right?" Li Jingrui asked.
Li Jinghe nodded: "Yes, tomorrow I will go to Da'an Escort Agency to work as an escort. No wonder Fang Qingshi only said one thing to Duan Chengde. Duan Chengde had to agree even if he didn't want to. As expected, the owner of Da'an Escort Agency is the Fang family."
"The escort agency is a trivial matter. I want to get the Fang family's incense shop. Luwu County is a land of mountains and wilderness. No matter how you do the spice trade, it is useless. People who can afford spices are the rich and wealthy in the capital. Over there
You can easily meet someone who is a fifth-grade imperial official on the street. He is the noble person who can afford spices." Li Jingrui looked at Li Jinghe: "Do you know what you want to do?"
Li Jinghe nodded and quickly shook his head: "Brother, tell me, I will do whatever you ask me to do."
Li Jingrui nodded, and the mother and son were almost touching each other. Until late at night, Li Jinghe forgot that he had not eaten. He felt light under his feet and went back to bed. When he closed his eyes, he felt like gold was falling from the sky.
Yuanbao, little did he know, no one in the Li family could have imagined that this was just a bait that had been laid out long ago!
