Chapter 152 Whose family has a daughter who has just grown up?
Li You and the young lady looked at each other for a few times and did not speak to each other for the time being.
This was not the daughter of an ordinary family. It was impossible for Li You to take the liberty to strike up a conversation, and it was unnecessary. Naturally, it was also impossible for the rich lady on the other side to take the initiative to talk to a strange man.
The servants on both sides were still arguing. Li You turned to Old Servant Cai and said, "What's going on? Who are you going to sell to?"
Instead, the old man yelled at Qu and said, "Master Li said he didn't want it the day before yesterday, so why can't I find another buyer? Today, Master, you came to see the house again, which made me feel bad inside and outside."
Speaking of which, he felt a little guilty for repeating himself... Li You sighed. The location and layout of this house are very good, and he doesn't want to let it go. Unfortunately, his opponent seems to be too strong to be a bully.
Suddenly I saw the young lady whispering a few words to the maid next to her, and then the maid came out of the crowd, knelt down and said to Li You, "Is this Mr. Li Tanhua in front of me?"
As soon as the words "Li Tanhua" came out, the servant who was arguing with Zhang San immediately shut up and looked at Li You in surprise. Zhang San felt a little proud, thinking that the enemy was shocked by the name of the master.
He was polite and courteous, and asked questions in a graceful manner. Of course, Li You would not embarrass himself by taking an official position. He smiled and nodded in a handsome manner: "I don't deserve the nickname of a friend. I am Xu Jiang Li You."
The maid retreated, but the young lady came to the battle in person and also bowed to Li You.
The attendants of the noble lady were not surprised, but Zhang San on the other side was extremely proud of the master. Zhang San also saw that the young lady opposite had an unusual identity, but so what, she still nodded when she heard the master's name.
Thank you, he is honored as a long-term follower.
Li You was surprised. He knew that his reputation was very loud in the brothel, but could it also affect the brothel? In any case, there is always a small vanity that belongs to men.
But I heard the young lady say: "I have met Uncle Li, and my niece is very polite."
The voice was as sweet as an oriole coming out of the valley, but...uncle? niece? Li You, who was trying to be affable, had a stiff smile, and almost thought he had heard it wrong. What kind of evil name was this?
"I heard from my father that Uncle Li is eight feet tall, has a face like a crown jewel, and is free and easy. He is well-deserved when I see him today."
Li You was still thinking hard, which of his friends had a daughter like this?
"I also heard my father talk about Uncle Li's poems about objects and objects. They are all remarkable..."
Li You finally couldn't figure it out, so he interrupted the young lady and asked: "I'm sorry for my blindness, but may I ask who your father is?"
The maid next to her answered: "Go back to Mr. Li, my master is the third master of the Zhao family."
"Zhao Mansion? Zhao Mansion in Zhaojia Lane in the south of the city?" Li You asked in disbelief.
"There shouldn't be another Zhao family in the city." The maid replied, neither humble nor overbearing.
Zhao Liangli, official Zhao! Li You was shocked. The beautiful young lady in front of him was actually Zhao Liangli’s daughter! No wonder he was called uncle. Li You and Zhao Liangli had always been on equal terms. No wonder the followers restrained themselves as soon as they heard his name.
Well, after all, he is also a guest of the two masters of the Zhao family. Most of the servants don't know him. Now that he has recognized him, how can he dare to offend him rashly.
In retrospect, although Zhao Daguan may give people the impression of being young and frivolous, he is actually a thirty-seven-year-old man (contrary to Li You, who is always regarded as in his twenties). It is normal to have a teenage daughter.
Just now, Li You thought about people he knew well, but he didn't think of Zhao Liangli.
It's no wonder that Li You has no memory. When he and Zhao Daguan were hanging out together, they were mostly in a romantic relationship, having fun and hugging each other. When he thought of Zhao Liangli, he subconsciously reflected this, and his mind didn't even think about it.
The dissolute official Zhao has been associated with words such as family and children.
But he never thought that a niece would suddenly appear in front of him today, and Uncle Li You was not prepared at all.
However, since she has become a niece, she should not compete with her uncle for the house. Thinking of this, Li You put on the airs of an elder and said to Mrs. Zhao: "Xiannie, I came to this city to make a living for my uncle. I have no place to live. I fell in love with this place. I don't want to be flooded."
To the Dragon King Temple…”
Mrs. Zhao sighed quietly, raised her beautiful eyebrows and said: "My niece originally wanted to buy this place, demolish it and rebuild it as a grand view garden as her new residence after marriage. If my uncle makes a request, my niece should avoid it."
Li You felt very strange when he heard it. Grand View Garden? After marriage? He couldn't help but ask more: "Why do you remember Grand View Garden?"
Madam Zhao's eyes suddenly filled with joy, "Speaking of which, my uncle still understands my niece's heart..."
Li You was shocked. There were so many people around him. He got angry when he was misunderstood. He quickly said: "Don't say nonsense."
Mrs. Zhao continued to think about herself: "Isn't it written under the guidance of my uncle? It's clearly written in the book. My niece likes reading it very much and wants to name this post-marriage residence the Grand View Garden."
Li You was speechless and put his hand on his forehead. Could he be a drug addicted girl who read too much and got too involved in dramas? Damn it, sin, sin, this book has indeed had a severe impact on women these days. Speaking of which, Miss Li Huan, whom I haven't seen for a long time, is indeed a pioneer.
group.
But how could Mrs. Zhao think of things so simply? Is the important matter of marriage such a child's play that she could live wherever she wants? But it's none of his business, there's nothing more to say, just leave.
In fact, Li You still doesn't know, maybe she can really do this. This Mrs. Zhao is the only daughter of the Zhao family, ranking seventh, and the whole family is very pampered to her. Buying a house by yourself as a wedding residence is not a big deal, if you have the ability
That husband’s family does not want to marry a young lady from the Zhao family who is a third-generation and fourth-jinshi scholar.
Although Li You was not interested in continuing the conversation, Mrs. Zhao seemed to have found a spiritual mentor and chased Li You and asked: "Uncle Li, my father has always praised you for your knowledge. Do you think I should marry the son of the Qian family?"
What does this have to do with me? Li You said nonchalantly: "Which Qian family?"
"The Qian family that is the imperial merchant is very famous. Uncle Li should have heard of it."
His surname is Qian? Huangshang? Qian Huangshang? Li You was agitated and suddenly cheered up. This name that had frightened him so far was firmly hidden in the depths of his mind, and he didn't want to bring it up again today.
I wonder if the officials still remember? When Xujiang County started construction of the Xuhe dike and weir, Qian Huangshang dared to provide all the stones at a cheap price of only 50,000 taels.
Then Li You, who was the deputy commander of the River Engineering Institute at that time, accidentally discovered that there was something wrong with the stones shipped by Qian Huangshang. They were all prepared from Zhejiang seawalls that had been misappropriated by Tan Mo. The water inside was unfathomably deep. In order to avoid being beheaded, he had to
He married Mrs. Liu and took the opportunity to escape.
Zhao Liangli wants to marry Qian Huangshang? Does he know about the terrible disasters Qian Huangshang was involved in? What should he do?
While Li You was in a daze, Mrs. Zhao asked: "Uncle Li, do you think I should get married?"
"Of course not, the Qian family is not allowed to be friends." Li You, who was still thinking hard, replied unconsciously. Anyone who involves Qian Huangshang is equivalent to taking this huge risk together. Anyway, he can hide as far away as possible.
"Uncle Li is indeed a close friend of women's families. Thank you Uncle Li for your understanding. I will tell my father when I get back."
By the time Li You woke up, Mrs. Zhao had already left with her entourage. Oh my god, what did he just say? Wouldn't this little girl regard her as a golden rule to fight against her parents?
