Chapter 575 Brother Hao is ill

  Li Guangshu held the teacup in his hand and gave Qiao Zhao a surprised look.

  If he remembered correctly, this niece is not yet married, isn't it too early for the marriage to be decided? And bypassing the eldest daughter of the right age to get married to the second daughter always feels a little strange.

   Could it be that something bad happened to this niece that made it rush to settle down?

  Li Guangshu put down the tea cup and smiled faintly: "I don't know which mansion is reserved for the three girls. The marriage of a child is a life-long event, and it should not be sloppy."

   This is the meaning of mocking Li Guangwen and his wife for being irresponsible for their children's marriage.

  Li Guangwen glanced at Li Guangshu in surprise, and thought to himself: Who are my daughters engaged to marry, what are you worrying about, my little wife still doesn't fully understand!

   "The third girl is married to the Marquis of Jing'an." Although Mrs. Deng was annoyed that Li Guangshu brought her concubine back, she was her own son after all.

   "Jing'an Hou's Mansion?" Li Guangshu was taken aback, and he felt a sudden realization about the attitude of the East Mansion Hall.

   It is no wonder that the man in the hall, who used to hold a shelf, had such a good attitude when he met him this time. It turned out that it was the West Palace that climbed up to the Jing'an Marquis Palace.

   Big brother is just a small Hanlin Xiuzhuan, or that kind of obviously hopeless, how on earth did he marry the Houfu?

  Li Guangshu had a dazed sense of loss of control. He didn't like this feeling very much. He even took a few sips of tea and said, "Champion Hou was born in Jing'an Hou's mansion, right? Is the third girl married to Champ Hou's brother?"

   He has been away from Beijing for too long, and he can't remember the relationship between the various prefectures in Beijing. It seems that he needs to find time to make up for it.

   "How does the little boy and my daughter fit? The one who is betrothed to Zhaozhao is the champion." Li Guangwen said impatiently.

  It is inexplicable that an uncle cares so much about his niece's marriage.

   "Champion Hou?" Li Guangshu's tone changed obviously, he shook his head and smiled, "Big brother, don't joke with your brother."

  Li Guangwen said with a stern face: "Second brother, you should know that I have always been very serious and never joked."

  Li Guangshu resisted the urge to roll his eyes and looked at Madam Deng.

   Mrs. Deng nodded: "Your eldest brother didn't coax you, the third girl is a relative of the champion Hou Ding."

  Li Guangshu raised his hand to rest on his forehead.

   He knows, all this is fake, he should be still in the carriage now, dreaming.

   No wonder his wife, whom he hadn't seen for several years, scratched his face when he met him. No wonder she was her own mother, but resolutely confiscated the 20,000 taels of silver he had worked so hard to save. No wonder the Dongfu hall elder brother treated him modestly, no wonder—

  Li Guangshu secretly pinched his thigh, and the pain that came from it caused his complexion to change slightly, and only then did he wake up.

  I didn't dream, it's all real!

   "Congratulations, big brother." Li Guangshu opened his mouth and squeezed out such a sentence.

  It was because he was impatient. He should have privately figured out the changes in the house over the past few years. Now, it's really uncomfortable to have a black eye.

  Li Guangwen threw a blank eye: "What's there to congratulate, my daughter is still young." He was abducted by other boys!

but-

  Li Guangwen thought for a while, then smiled: "But my son-in-law is very good at making money, and the two thousand stone per year is worth it for us to do it for a lifetime."

  Li Guangshu almost fell backwards in anger.

   If you get it cheap and sell it well, you have to bury him by the way. I thought it was all this big bro, and if you say that the monthly salary is eight stones, there is really nothing else!

  Seeing the maids start serving dishes, Li Guangwen added with a smile: "My son-in-law also made a very delicious green pepper belly, and I am very satisfied with this, otherwise I would have to think carefully about this marriage."

  Li Guangshu: "..." Where's the knife? Who gave him a knife?

   "Hey, when did Master eat the green pepper belly shreds made by our son-in-law?" Mr. He's surprised voice sounded.

  Li Guangwen's mouth froze in a smile.

  Oops, I accidentally said something.

   "Test, this is a test." Li Guangwen said solemnly.

  Li Guang was silent in writing, half-dead in his heart, and he ate a meal in a daze, not knowing the taste.

   When the maids served Qingming tea, Mrs. Deng took a sip, and then said calmly: "Second brother, about Brother Hao-"

  Li Guangshu's expression changed: "Mother, Hao Ge'er is too young, and suddenly left the familiar environment to come to the capital, and forcibly took him away from his biological mother, he will not be able to bear it."

   "You can adapt quickly when you are young." Mrs. Deng said lightly.

  Li Guangshu couldn't help looking at Liu Shi.

   Could it be that when he went to Dongfu, what Liu said to his mother?

   He knew that when Mr. Liu said he didn’t want to raise Brother Hao’er, he told him. Liu's second daughter hurt her body, and it will be difficult to get pregnant in the future. How could she not want to take Brother Hao over to raise her?

  Li Guangshu's eyes hurt Liu Shi, and he sneered: "Master, don't look at me, I'm not interested in raising a child who crawled out of someone else's stomach."

  Li Guangshu secretly let out a sigh of relief: "Mother, you see that Liu Shi said so—"

  The old lady drank tea with her eyes down, her eyelids not lifted: "Uh, your daughter-in-law doesn't want to be raised, I see."

  Li Guangshu showed a relaxed smile, took a sip from the tea cup, and heard Mrs. Deng say, "I'll raise it."

With a    puff, Li Guangshu sprayed the tea out of his mouth.

   Mrs. Deng frowned: "Second child, what are your etiquette rules?"

  Li Guangshu covered his mouth and coughed, and it took a while to recover. Under the gaze of the junior, he said awkwardly: "Mother, what did you just say, my son didn't hear it clearly."

   "I said now that the grandchildren are all grown up, I am boring every day. It's just right to take Brother Hao for two years while he is still tough. Second child, what do you think?"

  Under Madam Deng's heavy gaze, Li Guangshu felt that his breath was stuck in his chest and there was nowhere to go.

"Why, I even have to beg you to raise a grandson?" Mrs. Deng put the tea cup on the coffee table, and made a thud, and the crisp sound shook people's hearts, "Or, you go out for a few years. , don't even take your mother seriously?"

   "Son dare not—"

   "Don't dare, don't dare, I see that you say you don't dare, but you are very brave in your heart." Mrs. Deng's face became more and more ugly.

   The little **** is really turning the world upside down. It seems that he has been out for too long for a concubine and his mother, and he has forgotten the taste of stewed meat on crutches.

  Li Guangshu couldn't sit still, and stood up embarrassedly: "Mother, don't be angry, son, go and tell Bingniang."

   "Is it still possible to negotiate with her?" Madam Deng asked angrily.

  Li Guangshu forced a smile and said, "No, my son just informed her."

   Bingniang, who had just settled in the west courtyard of Jinrong Garden, was gently patting the sleeping brother Hao'er. Seeing Li Guangshu approaching, she followed him lightly to the outside.

   Facing the beautiful concubine, Li Guangshu spoke with difficulty, but Bingniang was silent for a long time.

   "Bingniang, I'm sorry for you, I made a blunder."

  Bingniang shook her head: "Master, don't say that, the old lady is willing to raise Brother Hao, it's a blessing for Brother Hao-"

   Speaking of this, her voice was slightly choked: "Can you let Brother Hao sleep with me for another night?"

  Li Guangshu relayed Bingniang's request, and Mrs. Deng nodded in response.

   On the second day, Brother Hao was carried to Qingsongtang, but he fell ill after only three days.
