Chapter 209: Unable To Let Go Of Feelings
Su County Magistrate said: "He still has money."
Li Yi: "..."
Su County Magistrate continued: "He gets hundreds of taels of silver a month, and he is willing to spend the money he earns on Qian'er."
Li Yi suddenly became suspicious: "Didn't you say that he is the son of a policeman?"
County Magistrate Su nodded: "It's true that the arrester's son is not bad, but this man seems to be very talented in story books, and he is good at business. He opened a bookstore by himself, and the stories he wrote sell very well in Yongzhou. .”
Li Yi frowned, sat down and said, "Then why don't you let him take a test for fame, so that Xiaoyu's daughter can be regarded as married to a scholar."
Su County Magistrate said: "Three generations of fast arresters cannot take the imperial examination."
Li Yi already had some approval for this young man who was willing to give the money he earned to Xiaoyu's daughter, but after hearing the big Chu law that the third generation of the police cannot take the imperial examination, Li Yi became dissatisfied again: "The third generation cannot take the imperial examination? That is to say, if he and Xiaoyu's daughter have a child, that child will be a businessman who will be looked down upon for the rest of his life?!"
Su County Magistrate said: "So what? Qian'er likes it."
Li Yi patted the table and said: "I like it, if you like it, you have to watch her mess around? Don't you know the orders of parents and the words of matchmakers?"
Su County Magistrate said: "I agree."
Li Yi pointed to Su County Magistrate and said: "Stupid! Really stupid! Scholars, farmers, businessmen, and businessmen, it's fine if they don't compete for the top gentry, but they want to decline into merchants. Who in the world thinks highly of merchants?"
Su County Magistrate looked at Li Yi and asked, "National merchants are also merchants, do you look down on them?"
Li Yi's expression became a little unnatural in an instant, but he quickly retorted: "Can that be the same? Do you think that all merchants in the world are state merchants? Do you think your son-in-law is Uncle Anding?!"
As Li Yi was talking, he felt dizzy for a moment, sat aside and took a few deep breaths and said, "No, I can't just watch Xiaoyu's daughter with a person who can't take the imperial examination for three generations. After a lifetime, like this, you let the two of them reconcile, I met some people in the capital, I came to find a better husband for Xiaoyu's daughter, who's child should I introduce? Let me think..."
The young man sitting beside him said at this time, "Father... Actually, my child..."
Li Yi turned his head and glared at the young man: "Don't interrupt the children when the adults are talking! Didn't you see that the father was thinking about something?!"
"Father, I..."
"You kid is itchy and looking for a beating, aren't you?!"
"..."
...
The county magistrate Su who was sitting on the side said: "I can't get married, my daughter has a serious illness, and the dowry is used to buy medicine."
Li Yi waved his hand and said, "I'll pay the dowry! I can't just sit and watch Xiaoyu's daughter spend her whole life with a policeman and a businessman!"
County Magistrate Su: "I don't want it."
Li Yi: "I didn't tell you!"
County Magistrate Su: "I don't want Qian'er either."
Li Yi: "You..."
County Magistrate Su sighed, and Li Yi said over his shoulder: "In this world, it is not easy to find someone who likes Qian'er Qian'er and who likes Qian'er. Now that you have met, why do you try to stop it? Why don't you trust the child himself? Can you have a good time?"
Li Yi clenched his fists tightly and said, "You know, your laissez-faire has ruined the future of three generations. Everything is inferior, only reading is superior!"
Su County Magistrate said: "Don't impose your thoughts on Qian'er and Qian'er's descendants, this can only represent your thoughts, Qian'er has never thought that everything is inferior, only reading is good, Qian'er only I want to find someone I like to live this life in peace and security. As for children, don’t you know that children and grandchildren have their own blessings? Besides, Xu Qing can really earn money..."
Li Yi: "But I'm Xiaoyu's senior brother!"
Su County Magistrate: "But you are just Xiaoyu's senior brother, and Qian'er is also my daughter and Xiaoyu's daughter. Save your money for your daughter's dowry. Senior brother, calm down for a while. I will go to the kitchen to see how the dishes are cooked." are you done."
in the kitchen
Xu Qing had just cooked the sweet and sour short ribs, while Su Qian was cooking the next dish in the kitchen, when Su County Magistrate walked in.
Xu Qing looked at County Magistrate Su and said, "Father-in-law, who is this guest of yours?"
County Magistrate Su sighed and said, "Do you still remember what I said to you that night when I was drunk? Back then, many people liked Qian'er's mother, but only a father can marry Qian'er's mother."
Xu Qing nodded and said, "Of course I remember."
County magistrate Su said: "He is my senior brother. At the beginning, he almost put his heart on Qian'er's mother. Fortunately, he was better for his father. However, even so, he still couldn't let go of his old feelings. To you It is Qian'er's husband-in-law who has some criticisms, but don't worry about him, just go back to your room with Qian'er after dinner."
Xu Qing nodded and said, "I see."
at the dinner table
The delicacies are served, and everyone is seated.
Looking at the delicious dishes on the table, Li Yi couldn't help saying: "Xiaoyu's daughter has inherited ten percent of Xiaoyu's cooking skills."
Su Qian, who was sitting next to Xu Qing, shook her head, and said in a calm voice, "It's absurd, these dishes are from Professor Husband and me."
Li Yi glanced at Xu Qing in surprise and said, "I didn't expect you to have such skills. Speaking of which, you are the husband of Xiaoyu's daughter. I heard from your father-in-law that you are very capable of making money?"
Xu Qing waved his hands and said, "It's okay, okay."
Li Yidao: "Then since you are rich, why are you willing to let Xiaoyu's daughter live in such a small place?"
Su Jiyuan said: "Brother, you can't blame Xu Qing. I've just arrived here, and I've already asked him to look for houses around."
Li Yidao: "Life's living place can't be worse, how can I say that the house should be bigger and more spacious."
Xu Qing nodded and said, "Well, it should."
Li Yi said again: "My parents are not traveling far, and they can't be too far away from the Anding County Government."
Xu Qing nodded and said, "Well, it's not far from the Anding County Government Office."
Li Yi finally asked: "So, when do you plan to buy this house? How long do you plan to let Xiaoyu's daughter suffer in this small back office?"
Xu Qing said: "In a few days, there will be a big house to live in."
Li Yi: "How long will you wait like this day after day? Don't talk about it for a few days. There is no guarantee at all. How many days will it take?"
At this moment, a gloomy voice came from outside:
"The imperial edict has arrived! Mr. Xu Qing, please come out quickly to receive the imperial edict!"
