Back to the ancient restaurant

After seeing off his cousin, Li Hongshen immediately took Li Zian back to the living room.Under Li Zian's puzzled eyes, Li Hong smiled deeply and handed the wooden box to him.

"What is it?" Li Zi'an took the wooden box and asked in a daze.

Li Hongshen raised his chin at Li Zi'an, motioning him to open it and take a look first.

Li Zian glanced at Li Hongshen's expression and saw that his brows were full of joy, thinking that it couldn't be a bad thing.So he opened the small box under his gaze.

Inside the box was a piece of paper. Li Zian took out the paper and touched it, feeling that the texture of this paper seemed to be different from ordinary paper.Through the paper, Li Zi'an could see traces of red cinnabar coming out, and when he unfolded it and took a glance, he stood on the spot in shock.

"This is a marriage certificate?!" Li Zian exclaimed.

Li Hong nodded to him with a deep smile, took the marriage certificate from his hand, pointed to the end, and said with a smile: "If you wish, after signing your name, this marriage certificate will become effective. Just sign After signing the marriage letter, it will not be so easy for you to go back on your word in the future."

Hearing this, Li Zian looked up at Li Hongshen, and found that although he had a smile on his face, there was a trace of anxiety in his eyes.Li Zian chuckled at him, picked up the marriage certificate on the table and walked out.

Seeing this, Li Hongshen's face turned pale immediately, and he followed closely for a few steps and asked, "What are you doing?"

Hearing the panic in Li Hongshen's words, Li Zian stopped, turned around and waved the marriage certificate in his hand, saying: "The pen and ink are in the study, I'll go to the study to sign."

Not long after, Second Brother Li and Second Sister Li returned hand in hand.Seeing the younger brother whom he hadn't seen for a long time, Brother Li excitedly patted him on the shoulder and dragged him to ask how he was doing.Seeing Li Hongshen teasing the two children, Second Wife Li went to the kitchen to help her mother-in-law prepare dinner in the living room.

Because Li Zi'an and Zhao Yang came back, Granny Li naturally prepared a richer dinner.The children are filial and willing to work hard, and the days are flourishing. Granny Li feels that there is nothing that makes her happier than this.

Seeing that the atmosphere in the room was strong, Li Zian felt that the matter between him and Li Hongshen was right at this time, so he took out the marriage letter from Zhong Yanran from his bosom, and unfolded it cautiously under the curious eyes of everyone.

"Mother, second brother, second sister-in-law, this is the marriage letter between me and Hongshen. Now he and I are officially married. I hope you can treat him like me in the future."

Old Madam Li took the marriage certificate with the red stamp from Li Zi'an's hand, stretched out her hand to touch it with a smile, and nodded with satisfaction. "That's natural, he's much better than you."

"..."

The two officially became one with the marriage certificate. According to Mrs. Li's wishes, they invited relatives of the same clan to have fun and let Li Hongshen recognize relatives, but Li Zi'an refused.After all, the autumn is just around the corner, and Li Hongshen is pressed for time, so he has no spare time to get these formal things.

When Mrs. Li heard that Li Hongshen was going to participate in the Qiu Wei soon, she nodded her head in agreement.Even so, the form that should be in the family is still there. The old lady immediately touched her purse and handed it to Li Hongshen as a gift for the newcomer.

"I don't know what you like, and you are not short of envoys. This amount of money is my wish, and you can't refuse." Li Hongshen looked at Li Zian's expression with some embarrassment. He reached out and took it.

Brother Li and Sister-in-law Li didn't expect them to talk about this matter, they came back from the shop in a hurry and didn't prepare anything.He promised to make up for it in the future, Li Zian couldn't care about what was in their hands, so he waved his hand to express his heart and let it go.

A few people happily ate the willow shoots on the moon for a dinner, and then Li Zi'an sent Old Madam Li and the others out.The two washed up and went back to the bedroom. Li Zian leaned on the bed rail and looked at the marriage letter that he had read countless times, smiling like a fool.

Li Hongshen said that he didn't care about him several times, turned on the bed and went to sleep.However, Li Zian was pressed on the bed by the extremely excited Li Zian, and cried for most of the night.

……

Autumn was just around the corner, and the two stayed in Huangshi Town for a few more days before taking Zhao Yang to the capital.Fu Gui'er was left in Huangshi Town by Li Hongshen, and was taken care of by Mrs. Li.Seeing Fu Gui'er desperately struggling to climb up, Zhao Yang smiled and patted his dog's butt and pushed him down.The three of them drove the carriage farther and farther amidst the wailing of Fu Guier...

On the way to the capital, Li Hongshen wasted no time reading books along the way.Although Li Zi'an did not participate in Qiu Wei, he was still worried by Li Hongshen, and he didn't even care about the customs and customs of the places along the way.Li Hong knew that he had his own, so he felt that it was useless to relieve him, so he let him go.

When the three of them arrived at the gate of the capital city day and night, it was already 20 days later.When Li Zian got off the car, his legs felt a little weak.He looked up at the majestic city gate, and slowly entered the city with the flow of people.

Li Hongshen and Zhao Yang in the capital city were regarded as tyrants, and they were far more familiar with Li Zi'an than Li Zian.The three of them drove the carriage into the city, found an inn with a relatively quiet environment near the examination room, and booked a small courtyard at a high price.At this time, the availability of inns in the city was not too tight, Li Zian followed the second brother with the package, looked at the rough environment around him and couldn't help but slammed his mouth.

The capital is indeed an imperial city, and every inch of land is worth every inch of gold.This small courtyard doesn't even have a view, and it costs three taels of silver for rent a month...

Li Zian sighed helplessly: Sure enough, no matter which town you go to, houses are in short supply.Fortunately, he didn't intend to take root in the capital, he just lived there temporarily, otherwise he would have to work hard for many years before he could buy a big yard...

Li Zi'an and Li Hongshen lay on the bed exhausted for a while, unable to speak anymore, staring blankly at the bed curtain above their heads, slowly closed their eyes and fell asleep.When the two woke up, it was already early in the morning the next day. Because Li Hongshen wanted to pay a visit to his former husband in the capital, he asked Li Zi'an to take a walk around the area by himself.

Li Zi'an responded and sent Li Hongshen and Zhao Yang out, and went to the inn lobby to ask for breakfast with Xiaoer. While eating, he watched the businessmen coming and going, unknowingly committing an 'occupational disease'.The waiter in the shop who was sitting straight filled his cup with tea frequently, and Li Zi'an realized this, paid the money, straightened his clothes and stepped out.

The bustling streets of the capital are far from what Huangshi and Xiashui City can compare.Li Zian wandered the street for half the morning, bought some unique gadgets and planned to take them home as gifts for the children at home.However, just when he finished picking things and was about to pay and leave.Suddenly a nobleman came to the booth, holding a slap-sized beckoning cat on the booth and kept playing with it, looking very fond of it.

Li Zian didn't notice the other party originally, so he didn't pay attention when he turned around.The shoulders of the two collided, and the maneki cat in the man's hand fell unsteadily to the ground and immediately shattered into pieces.

Seeing this, Li Zian hurriedly apologized.Thinking that he was not careful, he took the initiative to admit his mistake, and at the same time took out five copper coins from his pocket and handed them to the owner of the small stall.

Hearing Li Zi'an's apology and seeing Li Zi'an's offer of compensation, the noble young man was about to speak when he saw a bright smile on the face of the person in front of him, then he raised his arm and waved it vigorously, then circled around Let him walk forward quickly.

The noble son is Meng Jiu, who turned around and followed Li Zi'an.Seeing him enthusiastically pulling a young man in green shirt, he didn't know what he was talking about, and then raised the gadget he just bought in his hand and shook it in front of the other party.

"Ayun, do you think that man in the green shirt looks familiar?"

The man called Meng Yun stood behind Meng Jiu, glanced at the two people who were talking, then lowered his head and said, "He is the eldest son of Li Shangshu, and his name is Li Hongshen."

Hearing this, Meng Jiu smiled and glanced at Meng Yun who was beside him with a respectful face, smiled lightly, tapped his palms and said, "Li Hongshen? Is he my seventh brother's future uncle? But look at the relationship between these two, It seems a bit unusual. What does Ah Yun think?"

Meng Yun didn't reply, but just looked up at his young master's smiling eyes and immediately lowered his head.

Seeing Meng Yun like this, a trace of disappointment flashed in Meng Jiu's eyes, but she quickly returned to normal.After silently reading Li Hongshen's name, Meng Jiu felt that it was very familiar.

"Where did I hear the name Li Hongshen before?" Meng Jiu said as she tapped her forehead lightly with a folding fan. On the third tap, Meng Jiu suddenly stopped and looked up at Li Hongshen. With a slender back, he murmured: "I remember now. Lingzhi sent a letter before, saying that his brother-in-law was going to participate in this year's autumn festival, and asked me to take care of him if he had trouble. I remember his brother-in-law as if It must be Li Hongshen."

After Meng Jiu finished speaking, she couldn't help chuckling while holding the folding fan.

"Oh, Zhang Lingzhi has a upright personality, and behaves in a well-behaved manner. The most impatient of people doing outrageous things, I didn't expect his wife and brother to be a broken sleeve?! I don't know if Zhang Lingzhi knows about this? I will write a letter when I go back. Ask him about this. It's a pity that you can't see his expression, I guess it must be wonderful, and it's very interesting to think about it."

Meng Jiu laughed for a while, seeing that Meng Yun just had a dull face and no other expressions.Sighing, he paced with a folding fan in his hand and led the respectful Meng Yun to the crowded place in front.

And Li Zi'an thought that Li Hongshen would not come back so soon, so he wanted to find a snack shop and have some noodles at random to deal with lunch, but he didn't expect Li Hongshen and Zhao Yang to come back so soon.

Although Li Hongshen was pressed for time, his studies were not accomplished overnight.Thinking that Li Zi'an came to the capital for the first time, it would be a pity if he didn't wait for him to stroll around, so he took Li Zi'an and Zhao Yang to some more distinctive places, and the three of them turned around and returned when they arrived at Yueshang Liushao late Inn.
