Chapter 77 Take Back the Power of the Family

With Li Can speaking, how could those young men dare to stop the Han family and their son?

He immediately got out of the way.

Tanggao sent someone to guide Han and her son.

Li Can didn't go to the market, got on the carriage and went straight to Xuanhe Courtyard.

"Grandma." She called from afar before entering the door.

"Let's see, who's here?" Mrs. Li heard her voice, asked Aunt Wei to support her, and greeted her at the door with a smile.

"Grandma." Li Can stepped forward and took her hand, with a rare solemn look on his face: "I have something important."

"What's the matter?" Mrs. Li couldn't help but ask.

"I just wanted to go to the market and met a mother and son in front of my house." Li Can told exactly what he saw.

"Is there such a thing?" Mrs. Li also changed her expression: "What about the letter?"

Tang Cake hurriedly stepped forward and presented the letter.

Mrs. Li took it and read it carefully, her expression became solemn: "It's an autographed letter from your uncle. Where are the mother and son?"

"I have left my maid to lead the way. I will be at my grandmother's place soon." Li Can replied.

"I'll send someone to invite your aunt." Mrs. Li said immediately.

"No need, grandma." Li Can smiled and said, "I've already sent someone to invite you."

Mrs. Li stroked her bun with approval: "You are already very considerate in what you do now."

Li Can pursed his lips and smiled proudly: "That's natural."

The grandfather and grandson only said a few words before they saw the maids leading Han's mother and son in from the courtyard door.

"Is this the old lady? I have met the old lady before." Mrs. Han went up to the corridor and knelt down to Mrs. Li.

Seeing that Chen Nianli had been standing, she raised a hand to pull him: "Dong'er, kneel down quickly and pay homage to the old lady."

"No, no need." Mrs. Li quickly raised her hand and told the maid: "Hurry up and help me, please come in and sit down."

After entering the house and taking a seat, Mrs. Han quietly looked at the magnificent house. Then looking at Mrs. Li's dignified and dignified posture, she couldn't help but feel a little ashamed of herself.

She also knew a few noble ladies in her hometown, and thought that the Marquis of Jing'an's Mansion was better than those families' homes.

When I came in and took a look, I realized that this wealthy family in the Imperial Capital was not comparable to the families in the border areas.

From now on, she will definitely ask Dong'er to put more effort into studying and take root in the imperial capital.

"Master Chen, please sit down too." Aunt Wei took the arm chair.

Chen Nianli's handsome face turned red again: "I don't dare to take it seriously."

Li Can saw him blushing in amusement, holding Mrs. Li's arm and smiling: "Since he is the son of his benefactor, he will be the young master of our house from now on.

Grandma, don’t you think so?”

"Well, that makes sense." Mrs. Li nodded with a smile.

"Mother." Mrs. Lin took the maid's hand and came in a hurry.

"Auntie is here." Li Can let go of Mrs. Li's hand and went to greet Mrs. Lin with a smile.

"Come and sit down." Mrs. Li raised her hand: "Do you know everything?"

"I know." Mrs. Lin glanced at Mr. Han and Chen Nianli.

Mrs. Han stood up and saluted again.

Naturally, Mrs. Lin couldn't help being polite to her.

Mrs. Li showed Li Yan's autographed letter to her.

Mrs. Lin held the letter and pondered for a moment and said: "In that case, please invite Sister Han and my nephew to stay in our home. There is a guest courtyard at home.

I will arrange it at the ethnography school.

There were a lot of shortcomings in the past, I hope Sister Han will forgive me."

"This is so bad." Mrs. Han said hurriedly: "There is no need to live at home. We have rented a place in the eastern suburbs and can live there.

All I need is for the eldest lady to let my child study in a clan school."

"The roads in the eastern suburbs are far away, and it is inconvenient for my nephew to go out early and come back late to study." Mrs. Lin said gently: "Since we are a benefactor, we are a family from now on. Sister Han really doesn't need to be polite."

She was considerate and meticulous in her work and speech. Seeing that Han and her son were dressed simply, she did not mention that the eastern suburbs were a poor place to live, only that the road was long and inconvenient.

"In this case, I would like to thank the old lady, the eldest lady and the seventh girl." Mrs. Han thanked her and couldn't help but shed tears again.

"You're welcome." Mrs. Lin stepped forward to help her and told her personal maid: "Danqing, you personally take Sister Han and your nephew to the guest house. All the preparations are essential."

"Just prepare according to the Sixth Young Master's example." Mrs. Li warned.

"Yes." Dan Qing responded and politely led Han and her son out.

"Send someone to call Mrs. He." Mrs. Li raised her hand towards Granny Wei.

This Mr. He is really getting more and more outrageous, and I am afraid that the middle-aged man in the family will no longer be able to hold her in his hands.

"Fortunately, Mrs. Han is not a bluffing person." Mrs. Lin was also afraid: "If she publicizes this matter, I'm afraid it won't end as well as it did today."

"You are in poor health. I want to take back the power of running the family, so I will take care of it for a while." Mrs. Li said thoughtfully, "I will hand it over to you when you are in better health."

"My health is much better now and I can manage it better.

At such an old age, mother should take care of herself." Mrs. Lin disagreed and said, "Why should you let mother worry about these things?"

"Are you physically able to do this?" Mrs. Li was worried.

"Yes." Mrs. Lin smiled and glanced at Li Can: "I have taken a lot of tonics these days."

"Then you should take care of it first." Mrs. Li didn't even think about asking about this: "If you can't bear it, just tell me."

Mrs. Lin responded with a smile.

"Mother, sister-in-law." Mrs. He entered the door and saluted.

She had been ill a few days ago, and her complexion did not look very good. There was a slight blackish tint under her eyes, and she looked a little haggard.

"Have you heard about what happened at the door?" Mrs. Li looked at her with a calm tone.

"Yes." Mr. He lowered his head and replied, "My daughter-in-law has been negligent about this matter. She will definitely pay attention to it next time."

"This kind of thing will never happen again. If Mr. Han spreads the matter, do you know what your elder brother will do?" Mrs. Li looked directly at her, her tone was calm but powerful: "Your elder sister-in-law's health has improved, you will

I'll sort out the account books and prints at home and send them to her today."

"Mom, my daughter-in-law is just not feeling well these days, so she makes mistakes..." Mr. He was unwilling to give in.

In the past, if she had hundreds of thousands of taels of silver in her hands, she could have given up Li Can's shop and the power to run the house. But now she has nothing. If she doesn't hold on to the power of running the house, where will she go to find money in the future?

?

"It's because you are unwell that you need to take a good rest." Mrs. Li waved her hand and interrupted her, not intending to give her a chance to continue: "Okay, you all can go down, I'm tired."

"Yes." Li Can stepped forward to support Mrs. Lin and greeted Mrs. He with a smile: "Mom, let's go."

"Okay." Seeing her innocent and ignorant look on her face, Mr. He reluctantly smiled and agreed.

Maybe, from now on, I can only deceive this girl?

As soon as they left Xuanhe Courtyard, a maid ran up in front of her, panting: "Second Madam, Second Madam, Mrs. Cao, who is respectful to the palace, has come to ask for an explanation."

"What?" He was surprised.

Li Can supported Mrs. Lin, pursed her lips and smiled quietly. It seemed that the rumors spread a few days ago had taken effect.

"Then Mrs. Cao has brought everyone here. Madam, please go and have a look." The maidservant was very anxious.

Mrs. He walked a few steps, then suddenly remembered something, turned around and said to Mrs. Lin: "Sister-in-law, you are in charge now, I have to trouble you to make a trip for this matter."

Since Mrs. Lin was going to take over the reins of the family, this mess should be left to her to deal with. She was worried about not having enough money to compensate Prince Gongshun these days, so she just took the opportunity to escape.

"Yeah." Ms. Lin nodded without refusing: "Go and have a look."

In the main hall.

Mrs. Cao sat at the head of the guest seat, with hot tea on the small table.

Cao Jizhi lay on the board and was placed on the Eight Immortals table in the main hall, with several boys surrounding him to guard him.

"Mrs. Cao."

Mr. Lin and Mr. He both showed their respects.

Li Can also bowed, but did not speak. At this time, no one would pay attention to her.

She quietly looked at Mrs. Cao. Mrs. Cao looked very majestic. Although she was old and her hair was gray, her brows and eyes were full of energy, and she had a fierce look when she looked at people.

She is indeed a person who can support the respectful palace on her own. Compared with her, my grandmother is much more easy-going.

"You two ladies are polite." Mrs. Cao stood up and returned the courtesy.

Li Can looked at her at first, always feeling that she would get up and make a noise. Now seeing how polite she was, he felt that she was not simple. Mrs. Cao could support such a large palace, so she was indeed very capable.

I want to see what she says today?

"I wonder who is in charge of your mansion now?" Madam Cao glanced at Mr. Lin and Mr. He: "Who will take charge of Liu Lang in your mansion?"

"Old Madam, please take a seat." Mrs. Lin said with a smile: "I just took over the affairs of the house today. Liu Lang is the biological son of the younger brother and sister, so naturally it falls under her control."

"Okay." Mrs. Cao looked at Mrs. He: "Second Madam, your son beat my grandson like this. Old lady, I am here today to ask for an explanation. What are your plans?"
