Qi Yun folded the clothes thoughtfully: "Brother, you have a very good sense. This dress is particularly suitable for your second brother!"
Qi Liang scratched his head in embarrassment and smiled: "My younger brother's body shape is almost the same as that of my second brother. I picked two pieces at random. As long as my second brother wears the right one, it's fine!"
Liu Mingzhi looked at Qi Liang with a faint smile, and his heart was bleeding with pain. The exquisite Su Jinru robe that he wore tightly was worth three hundred and fifty taels of silver, which was the cost of an ordinary person's family for several years.
My 10,000 taels must have been lost forever after being beaten by a meat bun.
"Brother Xian is interested. Second brother likes this outfit very much. At home, your second sister prepares clothes for brother Wei. If brother Wei doesn't like it, I can't say anything because I'm afraid she'll hit me!"
Heartache is heartache, you can’t lose face, you must maintain the image of yourself not short of money!
Qi Yun rolled her eyes charmingly at her husband, who was still poor at this time.
Qi Run put down his belongings and stood up from the chair.
"Zhi'er, don't spend money so lavishly in the future. Ten thousand taels is all the salary I had for the three or four years when I was an official. I and your mother-in-law understand your filial piety, but every penny and a meal should be considered.
It’s not easy, you are still young, and there will be so many ways to use money in the future. If you don’t lack money, you can’t spend it randomly!”
Qi Run has suffered little by little and knows how difficult it is for a hero to be stumped by a copper plate.
In order to save some money, I fought with beggars for a place to sleep, and I still remember the days when I fought with dogs for food!
When you are in poverty, your relatives are not close to you, and no one except your parents will do anything for you without any complaints.
Although he is now living a life without any worries about food and clothing, it still makes him feel a little distressed to see Young Master Liu squandering ten thousand taels on his son.
He knew that Liu Mingzhi had been well-fed and well-fed since he was a child. He had never suffered and did not know the hardships of life. Whether he listened or not was one thing. As an elder, he still had to give some advice!
Liu Mingzhi looked at his father-in-law's affectionate expression and nodded respectfully: "My father-in-law taught me a lesson that my son-in-law must bear in mind!"
Qi Run smiled happily. It was a rare thing for Liu Mingzhi, who was the Minister of Household Affairs and the Duke of the country, to listen to the nagging of a member of the Communist Party of China who resigned and returned to his hometown without being humble or arrogant.
Qi Run has experienced more, and can better understand the situation of people leaving tea.
The general trend is like this, how can it be changed by a small amount of time?
The more Mrs. Qi looked at Liu Mingzhi, the more satisfied she became. Liu Mingzhi could still be so humble in front of her and her husband, which meant that her daughter had not married the wrong person and was a good man worthy of being entrusted to her for life.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Qi glanced at her eldest daughter, who was standing aside with her head bowed and her eyebrows lowered, and she secretly decided in her heart that she must facilitate the marriage between Qi Ya and her son-in-law no matter what. Even being a concubine in a room is better than finding an old man at random.
A weak, sick, disabled person who doesn’t know his roots will be much stronger if he marries.
At least Liu Mingzhi always treated his concubines and eldest wives equally and impartially!
Liu Mingzhi's attitude towards Qinglian Yunqingshi and the others was very clear when Mrs. Qi was taking care of Qi Yun's delivery. With her eldest daughter's current status, it was already a matter of Qi Ya's high standards to be able to join Liu Mingzhi's family.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Qi felt a little worried. Liu Zhi'an and his wife wondered whether they would agree to this marriage!
The ancients valued family reputation more than life sometimes, and there were countless people who died without regrets for the sake of appearance.
Others Liu Mingzhi didn’t know, but he saw with his own eyes that his former classmate Qin Bin, a scholar from the Jin Kingdom, almost killed Liu Mingzhi because of cheating in a battle with a Jinguo scholar.
The importance that the ancients attached to integrity will never be understood by future generations.
"Dad, my husband is so lavish in order to be filial to you two elders. You don't know how frugal Mr. Dafu is at home. The clothes he is wearing now are still the ones my daughter bought for him three years ago. The cuffs are all frayed.
I can’t bear to replace it!”
Qi Yun walked up to Liu Mingzhi and held up her husband's sleeves to show the two elders. Sure enough, there were several holes.
"You are filial to your husband, are you making a mistake by being filial to your husband? Normally, my daughter, mother-in-law, and her three husbands don't even say that they can spend ten thousand taels at will. Dad, are you still scolding your husband for being a father-in-law like you?"
I can reprimand my husband, I can be rude and troublesome to him, I can be coquettish and arrogant, but I can’t do it to others, not to anyone, not even my own father!
When Qi Yun's husband-protecting mode is turned on, it means "disowning all relatives". No matter how good my husband is, he is still my treasure. Can anyone say that?
Qi Run smiled slightly and pointed at Qi Yun with a wry smile: "You girl, you don't even recognize your father when you get married. I raised you so big in vain!"
Having said that, Qi Run was extremely happy. To see her daughter and son-in-law in such harmony and love would make her die in peace!
Isn’t the goal of being a parent just to be satisfied with seeing your children live a happy life?
There are people who abandon their wives and children for profit, but they are only a minority.
Most parents still love each other deeply!
Liu Mingzhi looked at the wife who was protecting him and felt extremely proud. What more could a husband ask for when he has such a wife?
As for saving something, that's just Qi Yun's beautifying words.
Young Master Liu didn't know that his clothes were torn because Ying'er Qiyun was responsible for changing his clothes, and he didn't care at all.
The lady has boasted so much about herself, so she can’t ruin it herself!
"Yun'er, you are not allowed to talk to your father-in-law like this. As an elder, it is natural for your father-in-law to scold your husband!"
"Yes, I know! Daddy is sorry, but my daughter has realized her mistake!"
"Okay, okay, you two, stop acting and bullying your father, an old man, and hurry up and pack up, we will have dinner soon!"
Mrs. Qi has no choice but to come out to smooth things over. If you two work together to deal with my old man alone, don’t you think I’m going to die?
"Mom, let me take care of the baby. You and your father and brother go to the back hall to have dinner first. The baby will be here in a minute!"
Qi Liang took over with a wink.
"Father-in-law, mother-in-law, please invite me first!"
"No need to be polite!"
When the few people arrived in the back hall, the maids immediately opened the covered food and wine, and the aroma suddenly filled the air.
"Zhi'er, have a few drinks with me. You've been away for two years and let's see if your drinking capacity has improved?"
"Yes, my son-in-law will definitely accompany me!"
Qi Yun gently pulled out the chair for Young Master Liu, and when she saw Young Master Liu was about to pour wine, she gently held down her husband's movements.
"Husband, I haven't eaten for a day. Drinking on an empty stomach is harmful to your body. I have cooked some porridge for you. You should drink some to nourish your stomach first!"
"My lady still knows how to be considerate!"
Young Master Liu stared blankly at the bowl of porridge in front of him, although he was not particularly familiar with Ganoderma lucidum and ginseng slices.
But I can still recognize the little wolfberries one by one.
Now that we have the wolfberry, the other items are not ordinary ingredients!
Tremella and lotus seeds are both great tonics, and I could recognize them even though I drank them often. He laughed twice blankly. Young Master Liu looked at Qi Yun's cunning and charming peach blossom eyes and sighed silently.
I found the reason for the chill in my spine. It was not that my ten thousand taels were wasted, but the bowl of porridge in front of me!
Looking at the ingredients in the porridge bowl and Qi Yun's "eager" eyes, Young Master Liu pursed his lips and chuckled twice.
In all likelihood, today will be another sleepless night.
The kind of person who can’t save himself even with great sorrow and blessings!
ps: Alas, it’s cold, please put on more clothes, otherwise you will know what it means to be in a hospital as deep as the sea, and get half a month’s salary!
