But when Li You saw off the guests at the door, Sister Li Mei suddenly slapped her chest, "Look at my memory, I almost forgot one thing." As she said this, she took out a thin booklet with only a few pages and handed it over.
Li You took advantage of the situation and squeezed Sister Mei's soft little hand, then took the book and looked at it under the light of the lantern. The cover was printed with the words "Collection of Flowers"...
Sister Li Mei leaned close to Li You's ear and whispered: "Brother Li, this is because the slave family knew that the bookstore was printing this, so they specially asked for a copy to bring over. Seeing that the slave family cares so much about you, yet you treat yourself as a master and still have sex with your old lover.
Comparing how many taels of silver there are, really makes the slave family very sad."
Li You's ears were tickled by the breath from her mouth. He took a few steps back and said fiercely: "I can give you a box of these books! It's agreed to be fifteen taels per month and no more changes are allowed. I'll collect them when I have time and return them.
Yes, you are not allowed to use your body to pay off debts!" Then he looked up at the sedan chair not far from the roadside, and said: "Go back early, and women should not wander around casually after dark."
"Sir, are you worried about the slave family?" Sister Li Mei chuckled and said, "Actually, everyone in the slave family knows that sir, he didn't really want to see what Huan'er wrote, but in order to take care of the slave family's livelihood, he agreed to use the name of a female apprentice.
,Sir is a good man.”
Hahahaha, Li You was secretly happy. To be honest, he was obviously coveting the fifteen taels of silver per month. Don't think that fifteen taels of silver per month is a fraction. Generally, laborers working in the city only earn 20 taels a year.
How much is Li Dianshi's salary? One stone meter and two taels of silver per month. As for the name, it is only in the name of mentoring female apprentices. If he is laughed at, just laugh at him.
As a result, even Sister Li Mei, who knew Li You well, didn't believe that Li You was really interested in the money and got a good person card for nothing. Sometimes the name of this celebrity is still useful, Li You thought.
When Sister Li Mei said this, she hesitated to speak. It was obvious that she was in a difficult situation and could not open her mouth.
As soon as Sister Mei entered the house, Li You sensed that she might be in trouble. But if Sister Li Mei didn't say anything, Li You just pretended to be confused. Now that he saw her repeatedly hesitating, he knew in his heart that Sister Li Mei must have encountered some real trouble, and
I'm afraid that we don't have enough friendship to speak rudely. Even though we had some feelings for each other, we haven't seen each other for more than half a month.
For the sake of a few casual romances, it's easy to help someone if you don't want to offend the big shot. "Just tell me what you need, there's no one else here." Li You asked.
Sister Li Mei frowned slightly and said: "Oh, sir, I may not be able to help you with this matter. I feel aggrieved, so I just want to complain. Recently, my family bought a new house, in Fuxin Lane, Jiadifang, and has moved in...
"
Li You thought to himself that it was indeed inconvenient for Sister Mei to continue to live in the original place where brothels and houses were gathered after she was relinquished. This new residence is not far from the Ershui Lane where the father-in-law's family lived, and the land price should not be too cheap.
I also heard Sister Li Mei say: "This house and the house next door were originally owned by two brothers. A few days ago, the brothers moved to another place. The two houses were sold together. The house bought one and the one next door was bought by someone else. But the owner next door
The family did not come to stay, and only sent a gatekeeper to guard the courtyard. When the gatekeeper saw the slave's family, and deceived the slave's family that there was no one in the house, he repeatedly teased the slave's family, and often called the door in the middle of the night. The slave's family was really helpless and frightened.
Very.”
Li You interrupted and asked, "With your friendship with Sister Mei, won't you be able to deal with even a little evil slave?"
"Sir, you have promoted the slave family. If you don't do this, how can there be any real friendship? That disciple claims to be from Inspector Liu's family, who would be willing to provoke him for the sake of the current slave family. If this continues, the slave family will have no choice but to move away again.
." Sister Li Mei said aggrievedly.
Inspector Liu? Inspector Liu! When Li You heard these three words, he was greatly moved. This matter actually had something to do with his cheap father-in-law. The slaves of the Liu family went to molest Sister Li Mei. Let’s not talk about it. Why did Liu’s father-in-law
Buying a house here?
As far as Li You knows, it is common for wealthy families to buy real estate, but most of them are in three situations: one is to build a villa in a beautiful place for leisure; the other is to buy a shop in a busy city and rent it out to make a profit; the third is to buy a shop in a busy city and rent it out for profit;
Buy neighboring properties and expand your own home after opening up the property.
The house that his cheap father-in-law bought in Fuxin Lane is completely different from the three situations. Even if the father-in-law is obsessed with sex and raises a child outside the house, there is no need to be so close to our family.
It was only two alleys away. Li You had some vague guesses about this.
"Such an evil slave deserves to die!" Li Youyi said angrily, and then asked: "By the way, your two houses were originally owned by two brothers. They should be similar. What is the layout?"
Sister Li Mei, who was in a tangled state of distress, was stunned when she heard this. Little brother Li, you don't ask about the right and wrong. Even if you can't help, you don't comfort the slave family. You actually ask about the house first? What kind of floating thoughts is this? But she still replied: "
The Nu's house is wide with two rooms and two entrances. The one next door is larger than the Nu's house, with three rooms and two entrances. I thought that one was too big and didn't buy it at first."
Li You frowned and thought hard, and said: "I will definitely ask about this matter. Sister Mei, please go back and don't show your face for the next two days. You women who do business in public will inevitably cause trouble, so you should pay more attention.
some."
Sister Li Mei didn't know the relationship between Li You and Inspector Liu. She just said that Li You wanted to help, and she was really touched by her gratitude.
After a night of silence, Li You ordered Zhang San and Li Si to inquire about Fuxin Lane the next day. He had to confirm the situation here.
In the afternoon, Zhang San reported back and forth: "The young man pretended to be a man who wanted to be sold as a slave. He went to the house mentioned by the gentleman to inquire about it. After flattering him, he heard that the man said that no one was living in this house now, and that it would be a future residence.
For the master’s son-in-law, there is no need for a buyer’s slave for the time being.”
Sure enough! Li You guessed correctly. These three houses with two entrances were bought by Mr. Liu as a dowry for his future son-in-law. However, the betrothal gift had already been given, so according to the rules, the word son-in-law can be used in the present continuous tense.
Such a layout is nothing to a wealthy family, but it is really luxurious enough for Li You today. Faced with such a great gift, if you think that Li You will be filled with joy, you would be totally wrong!
What a sweet bait. Li You, who already knew his father-in-law very well, sighed. This old man Liu would not stop playing tricks on him until he died, and he didn’t know if he was tired or not.
If nothing else goes wrong, even if this house has gardens, warehouses, river ports and other facilities, and excluding the courtyard where he, the future master, and his wife and concubines live, there are probably two side courtyards for the slaves and maids. These two
There is no problem in placing a dozen or more servants in the side yard, but where can the Li family send so many people?
The problem arises. If the Liu family is allowed to seemingly kindly send the servants and the house as dowry, and Li You can live in it directly, it seems to save worry. But isn't this family, from the wife to the slaves and maids, all belong to the Liu family?
People? What's more, the Liu Mansion is just two lanes away, and there is a bit of trouble. Inspector Liu can easily control the place. In the end, how much control can Li You, the nominal head of the family, have?
Thinking of this, Li You sneered in his heart. This is what Mr. Liu, Inspector Liu, is thinking. Hum, it is always right to be on guard at all times. I don’t know if others can accept this situation. Anyway, Li You absolutely cannot accept that his family is manipulated by outsiders.
, even if Master Liu’s father and daughter love their daughter deeply, it won’t work.
Thinking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived. At this moment, I heard someone at the door shouting "Xian son-in-law"! It turned out that Mr. Liu, the patrol inspector, came to Li You's public house again.
