After becoming a widow, I became the mother of seven children

Three days passed quickly and it came in the blink of an eye. Early in the morning, Li Xiangping picked up Li Xiangkang from Xifeng Academy.

Li Xiangping drove the bullock cart directly into their new house. Li Xiangkang had not been home for several days. He had never been away from his mother for so long in his life.

So he wasn't even interested in visiting the newly renovated house, and went straight to the yard where Yan Qingqing lived.

Li Xiangkang shouted while running: "Mom, Silang is back."

The first person to come out of Yan Qingqing's room was Yuan Huiniang, because today she invited guest Yuan Huiniang to come and ask Yan Qingqing for advice if she was unsure about something.

Yuan Huiniang saw Li Xiangkang running over like a gust of wind and said with a smile: "Fourth brother is back?"

When Li Xiangkang saw Yuan Huiniang calling him, he hummed, then straightened his clothes, raised his hands and saluted Yuan Huiniang, and said, "I've met my sister-in-law."

When Yuan Huiniang saw Li Xiangkang acting like a young adult, she immediately burst into laughter and said, "Fourth brother is so polite. How can you be so polite if you are a member of your own family?"

Li Xiangkang said seriously: "Back to my sister-in-law, Master said that a true scholar should start from being gentle and polite, and must uphold integrity and cultivate one's morality."

Yuan Huiniang was also happy to see Li Xiangkang's obvious change.

After Yuan Huiniang left, Li Xiangkang poked his head into Yan Qingqing's house. When he looked up, he found Yan Qingqing looking at him and smiling. Li Xiangkang's face turned red and he shouted loudly: "Mother~"

Yan Qingqing smiled and teased him: "Is this what Master taught you to be gentle, polite and upright?"

Li Xiangkang pulled Yan Qingqing's sleeve and said coquettishly, "My master said that I was treating others, but my mother is not another person."

Yan Qingqing deliberately embarrassed him and said: "Then you mean that your sister-in-law is someone else. Alas, I just handed over the housekeeping power to your sister-in-law. From now on, your sister-in-law will pay the monthly money at home. What if I have to let you do this?" What will my sister-in-law do if she finds out?"

When Li Xiangkang heard this, he immediately said seriously: "Mom, how could my sister-in-law be someone else? They say a sister-in-law is like a mother, and I respect my sister-in-law very much.

I just wanted to teach you the etiquette taught by Confucius. "

Yan Qingqing admired in her heart that she didn't expect this kid to react very quickly.

Li Xiangkang was relieved to see that Yan Qingqing was no longer obsessed with this matter, and then he said many nice words, which made Yan Qingqing laugh from ear to ear.

Just as the two of them were chatting happily, Li Xiangping came in and said, "As expected, my mother's favorite is my fourth brother. Let's see how happy I am this time."

After all, Li Xiangkang was still a child. Hearing what Li Xiangping said, he raised his head proudly and said that his mother liked him the most. Even if she had a younger sister, she would still like her the most.

Thinking of his sister, Li Xiangkang suddenly became energetic and looked at Yan Qingqing and asked: "Mom, where is my sister? Why haven't I seen my sister?"

Yan Qingqing replied: "My sister just fell asleep. You can go into the bedroom and have a look."

When Li Xiangkang heard this, he gritted his teeth and smiled. He was about to skip to Yan Qingqing's bedroom, but when he thought that Li Xiangping was still there, he smoothed his clothes and walked in with a small step.

Li Xiangping also thinks Li Xiangkang is a bit funny, but the path his fourth brother will take in the future will always be different from his. Maybe his fourth brother has already started working hard now.

Yan Qingqing looked at Li Xiangping and asked gently: "Are you all ready?"

Li Xiangping quickly retracted his thoughts and said: "Everything is ready. Mr. Chen Liu is here. He was specially invited by my mother. He has some friendship with the second and third brothers. I have asked the third brother to receive him."

Yan Qingqing nodded and said, "Okay, I'll pack up and go see him later."

Li Xiangping nodded. He only knew that Li Xiangan and Li Xiangjian were taken care of by Chen Liu when they were working at the dock. When they were doing business at the dock, Chen Liu would often eat braised sesame at their stall and chat with his mother.

But he didn't know that Yan Qingqing actually invited him to a happy event at home, which shows that Chen Liu's relationship with his mother is not shallow.

But he knew that Yan Qingqing always did things according to rules, so he didn't need to ask more about this matter.

Yan Qingqing then told Li Xiangping: "After a while, relatives and friends will arrive, and all four of you brothers will go to receive the guests, especially Shiro. Don't exclude him from participating just because he is young.

You must not get used to the aloofness of his scholars. If he really wants to pursue an official career in the future, he must understand these people and sophistication. "

Yan Qingqing was very considerate for each of the seven brothers and sisters. Li Xiangping understood very well, so he called Li Xiangkang, who was paying attention to his sister, and went to the front yard together.

Yan Qingqing changed her clothes and came to the front yard. By this time, many relatives and friends of the Li family had come.

As soon as they saw Yan Qingqing, they rushed over to say hello, say a few auspicious words, and send their blessings.

Yan Qingqing also smiled and greeted them.

There were two strange men who came with Chen Liu. They sat next to Chen Liu and whispered: "Master Liu, do you actually have such rich relatives in the countryside?"

Chen Liu looked at the grand courtyard around him, and he didn't expect Yan Qingqing's home to be so good.

At the same time, he was a little proud. He had indeed seen the right person. Yan Qingqing was capable and loyal.

At this moment, Yan Qingqing came over and said with a smile: "I just heard Da Lang say you were coming in the backyard, so I put down what I was doing and came to see you. I didn't have time to thank you for what happened last time."

What Yan Qingqing was talking about was when Chen Liu was selling mooncakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Otherwise, her mooncakes would not be selling so well.

When Chen Liuyi saw Yan Qingqing, he quickly stood up and said, "It's all trivial matters. Don't worry about it, eldest sister. By the way, congratulations to eldest sister on having your daughter and moving into a new home. It's really a double happiness."

Yan Qingqing looked at him and smiled, then looked at the two people next to Chen Liu and said, "This is Brother Liu's friend, please bear with me if I don't treat him well."

The two people hurriedly said: "We are just here to have a meal with Mr. Liu. If there is any rudeness, please let Madam Haihan."

People in Jianghu naturally speak Jianghu dialect, so Yan Qingqing greeted them with a few more words and then went to entertain other guests.

After Yan Qingqing left, the two people praised Yan Qingqing a few more words, and Chen Liu felt quite satisfied.

Yan Qingqing had just finished her work when she heard Li Xiangan's voice coming from the door: "Shopkeeper Xue, shopkeeper Wu, why are you here together? Please come inside quickly."

Shopkeeper Xue said with a smile: "We met at the entrance of the village. Because it was the first time for Xue to come to your house and he was not familiar with the road, he happened to meet shopkeeper Wu who was also here for a wedding banquet, so we came with him."

Shopkeeper Wu said: "Then you have to make two more trips if you have something to do. Let me tell you, the Li family has a lot of good things, especially when it comes to food.

As a restaurant owner, if you can cooperate with them for a long time, it will be of great benefit to you. "

Although shopkeeper Wu just talked casually, shopkeeper Xue really paid attention to it. Didn't Yan Qingqing say that their ancestor was the royal chef of the previous dynasty? There must be many recipes.

Shopkeeper Xue made up his mind to establish a good relationship with the Li family in the future.
