Li Zhi, don't be a coward

Chapter 875
Giving birth to a baby is a happy event, and human reproduction is serious and grand, and it is also a good opportunity to receive gifts and make a fortune.

Li Qinzai gained a lot today, none of the guests who came to the door came empty-handed, and behind each of them was a group of servants carrying the ceremony burden, and all kinds of valuable things were kept moving to the storeroom.

To Tengwang's father-in-law's blessing, Li Qinzai's financial pressure is a bit heavy recently, and the [-] guan that he promised to build the Tengwang Pavilion has been unable to get out, so it has been delayed.

Having a baby this time relieved a lot of pressure. Li Qinzai reckoned that if he put together a little more, he would be able to give an explanation to King Teng.

It doesn't matter if you can't get it together, Xue Na has recently become the domineering president of Zongheng Shopping Mall, and it is not a big problem to get a turnover from him. Seeing that winter is approaching, it is almost time to divide the Xu family's ice business this year...

After thinking for a long time, Li Qinzai breathed a sigh of relief. He began to consider whether to start a new business. He just had a baby, and the family had a baby. The whole family has so many mouths waiting to be fed, and the pressure of supporting a family is great.

Why don't you just sell health products, get a flour ball, add some ginseng antler and ganoderma in it, it can't cure the disease and can't kill people, claiming that it's the dirt rubbed off from the body of the Taishang Laojun, and mortals eat it to prolong life bliss...

His mood was a bit confused, and when the guests were joking around, Li Qinzai was distracted.

After a long time, he suddenly felt that someone had pulled his sleeve. Li Qinzai turned his head and found that it was Shangguanyi.

Even when he was old, he still winked mischievously at him. With that appearance, those facial features... It's hard to imagine this wretched appearance as a ruthless character who wrestled with Empress Wu in history.

Shangguanyi gestured to the door, Li Qinzai understood, and the two walked out of the front hall and came to the corridor on the east side of the courtyard.

"Grandpa Shangguan, this is..."

Shangguanyi stroked her beard and chuckled, and said, "Congratulations to Jing Chu for being happy with Lin'er first, the old man heard the good news last night, and prepared a small gift overnight..."

Li Qinzai hurriedly bowed to thank him.

Shangguanyi waved her hand and said: "The people in the front hall talk too much and it's hard to talk, but I have something I want to talk to you about."

"No matter what Grandpa Shangguan tells you, the boy will obey you."

Shangguanyi stroked her beard and smiled: "At the beginning of the year, the old man told you that the family gave birth to a baby girl and wanted to marry Jingchu. It has been almost a year, and the girl in the family has grown up a lot. The matter of our two families getting married has nothing to do with it, the old man couldn't bear his temper and wanted to ask Jing Chu what he meant."

Li Qinzai understood, quickly glanced in the direction of the front hall, and said with a smile: "Shangguan grandpa is willing to marry the boy, of course it is the boy's honor, but the children and grandchildren are still young, and if they grow up, they will not get along if they have different temperaments. After all, the elders harmed them..."

Shangguanyi stared: "Who is not compatible? Who dares not? Besides, my girl has a very good temper. Although she is only one year old, she can already see gentleness and virtuousness in her appearance. She is like a family and a family. phase."

Li Qinzai was dumbfounded. How could a one-year-old girl be able to tell so much from her appearance?

If Datang had a Market Management Bureau, Shangguanyi would have to be invited in for tea, because he was suspected of false advertising and spreading false information about the products...

"Uh, what Grandpa Shangguan meant was my Qiao'er and Ling's granddaughter..."

Shangguanyi's eyes flickered slightly, and she subconsciously glanced at the front hall without making a sound.

Li Qinzai instantly understood what he meant.

Shangguanyi changed his mind. Of course he still wanted to get married, but he wanted to marry Li Qinzai's newly born son-in-law.

As for the reason, do you have to guess?
After all, Qiao'er was a concubine, not only unable to inherit the family business, but also unable to inherit Li Qinzai's title. At the beginning, Shangguanyi revealed the intention of getting married because Li Qinzai had only Qiaoer's son at that time, and Shangguanyi was anxious to establish a relationship with Li Qinzai.

Now that the legitimate son is born, Shangguanyi certainly has a better choice. Besides, the age difference between Shangguanyi's granddaughter and Li Qinzai's legitimate son is only one year, and the two seem to be more suitable for marriage.

Li Qinzai was a little upset.

What's so special, my family has never divided the progeny and concubines, you, an outsider, pick and choose my family, do you care about getting married with you?

What about Shangguan Wan'er?In a few years, when Shangguanyi will retire from office, who else in your Shangguan family will come out to support the family business?

My Qiao'er is more than enough to match your soon-to-be-declining Shangguan family, so it's your turn to pick and choose?

So Li Qinzai laughed and said with a smile: "Grandpa Shangguan, the children are still young, and I am a little worried about deciding on life-long affairs too early. My dog ​​is stubborn and rude, and I am afraid that he is not good enough for your granddaughter. It was just a joke."

Shangguanyi was taken aback for a moment, but Li Qinzai suddenly changed his tone, which caught him off guard.

When talking about the marriage of children before, although Li Qinzai was also vague and refused to give a positive response, but now Li Qinzai's words clearly meant that he refused.

After all, Shangguanyi is a cunning old fox. He immediately began to reflect on what he said wrong just now, and then quickly realized that his attitude just now was obviously a bit contemptuous of the bastard of the Li family, which made Li Qinzai angry.

After self-reflection, Shangguanyi immediately made amends, pulled Li Qinzai with a wry smile and said, "Jing Chu is really...too preoccupied, and misunderstood the meaning of the old man."

"The old man didn't say anything. He has always belonged to your Qiao'er. Looking at Qiao'er's handsome appearance, he is a good match for my Wan'er. Jing Chu can't go back on what he said earlier. "

Li Qinzai smiled lightly: "Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. As elders, we don't want to interfere too much. It's better to wait for the two children to grow up and see if they agree with each other before deciding whether to get married. What does Grandpa Shangguan think?" ?”

Shangguanyi smiled helplessly, and said: "The old man really doesn't mean anything else, Jingchu... just, you and I will leave an explanation, and we will talk about it when the two grow up."

…………

Guests come and go quickly, like a tornado of love.

After a full meal as usual, the guests left one after another, leaving the front hall in a mess.

Tranquility was restored in the Li family courtyard, and the whole family continued to live a peaceful life.

Li Qinzai was still a bit busy, so he didn't need to worry too much about serving Cui Jie during her confinement, but the school teaching must not be neglected, and the examination paper marking was also a major task.

So in the following days, Li Qinzai was busy at both ends. He obviously only wanted to make a salted fish, but Li Qinzai felt inexplicably tormented by being thrown into an oil pan and fried until golden on both sides.

Li Zhi adopted Li Qinzai's advice. Not only did the examination papers use the system of ambiguous names, but also several officials cross-checked the examination papers. Each examination paper had to go through the hands of at least four officials, which greatly avoided favoritism and mistakes. Let real talent be discovered without surprise.

After reviewing the papers for five days, Li Qinzai let out a sigh of relief.

The gold list has been set, and talents have surfaced.
