Rebirth: Picking up a Little Husband

After solving the problem of having a child, Li Chuyao decided to put the gambling debt on the agenda, try to settle the Li family's affairs before the Chinese New Year, and give the Li family a big gift at that time.

Su Yu threw the person away when he was done using him, and while Li Chuyao was shaking his head, Su Yu got off the person.

"Okay, go out and continue basking in the sun."

Li Chuyao: "..."

"Honey, you can't be so heartless."

"I'm going to give it to the owner of the book shop tomorrow, so don't disturb me."

Li Chuyao sighed, stood up, and walked a few steps outside. When he reached the door, Li Chuyao turned around, leaned against the door, and said to the hard-working man, "I'm planning to go to the south of the city."

Su Yu didn't even look at him, "Okay."

"..."

There was silence in the air, and the sound of Su Yu's pen falling on the paper could be vaguely heard.

The person in front of the desk, with his head lowered slightly, is writing vigorously. His white fingers are especially good-looking while holding the pen. His eyes are focused, and his black hair is scattered on his chest. Maybe he is too serious, and the sleeves of his Tsing Yi are stained with ink. Didn't notice either.

At this moment, time seems to be elongated, and if you are not careful, you can grow old forever.

Li Chuyao changed his posture and said again: "I'm really leaving."

Su Yu's thoughts were interrupted, he raised his head and asked in doubt: "Why haven't you left yet?"

Li Chuyao: "..."

With a half-smile, he stared at Su Yu for a while, then turned and left.

Su Yu looked puzzled.

The stone slabs in the yard were whitened by the sun, and one could vaguely see evergreens in the flower beds of the yard while walking along the path. A man in servant clothes hurried into a mahogany carved gate.

The room is covered with dark red embroidered carpets, the stove is placed in the middle of the room, and the red charcoal fire is burning, and the graceful and luxurious old lady in the hall closes her eyes and meditates.

When Mammy saw the servant, she reminded the people in the seat, "Madam, I have something to report."

The old lady opened her eyes, glanced at the bowed servant, raised her hand, straightened her wide sleeves, and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Old Madam, Da Madam just invited Doctor Huang."

Mammy made a cup of tea, tested the temperature with her hands, and passed the tea to the old lady, who took it, lifted the lid of the cup, and blew a few breaths, "What did Doctor Huang say?"

"Doctor Huang still prescribed the medicine as usual."

The old lady nodded, "Go ask Doctor Huang to come over, just say that I have a headache."

"Yes." The servant took two steps back, turned around and went out the door.

The nanny took the tea that the old lady had drunk, put it on the table, and said worriedly: "Old lady, I'll give you a press first."

The old lady raised her hand to stop, "No need, it's just that Dr. Huang came to ask something, Mrs. Zhang has been ill for a long time."

The nanny smiled, "Eldest Madam pretended to be sick before to pay her respects, but she was really sick when she heard about the happy event in the house a few days ago."

The old lady nodded, she knew about it, that day Qing Cui, the maidservant in Zhang Xianglan Courtyard, went out to grab medicine with an anxious face, she had a little refreshment, it was hard to know.

"That's good, so you don't come out to be a demon. Have you gone to see the master?"

"In the past few days, when the master came back, Qing Cui invited him to the eldest lady's room. I heard that Zhang Xianglan begged the master to let the young master come back."

The old lady frowned. Before that, Li Changwei was raised to be idle and lazy. In order to turn him around, Li Shengcai entrusted his relationship with him and put him in the academy so that he could study hard. He didn't seek fame, but only wanted to get rid of his bad habits.

Now Zhang Xianglan wants to get people back, probably because she feels that the second wife is threatening her status, and Li Changwei has not yet taken over the property of the Li family at the age of twenty, so Zhang Xianglan is obviously panicked and wants to make people come back to gain favor.

It would be no problem for Li Shengcai to manage the Li family for another 20 years. If Qian Shi gave birth to a son and raised him well, it would be just right for him to take over the Li family when he grows up. Zhang Xianglan was afraid that she would make a wedding dress for Qian Shi.

"What does the master say?"

Mammy shook her head, "Master hesitated, but he didn't particularly object."

The old lady nodded, twiddled the beads with her fingers, and said after pondering for a while, "Come back if you want to. With Zhang Xianglan's temper, her son's future will be ruined sooner or later."

Mammy sighed in her heart, who said no, the old lady was reluctant to embarrass her master before, and wanted to bring Li Changwei to her side and teach her personally, but Zhang Xianglan always thought that the old lady was bad-hearted and wanted to teach the child badly, against herself, and she ended up Make people look like that.

I can't blame the old lady for being cruel, but I can only blame Zhang Xianglan for not knowing how to cherish opportunities and treating the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.

There were footsteps outside, and the old lady made a show of embarrassment to the nanny, who stepped forward to welcome the person in, and ordered the door to be guarded.

"Meet the old lady."

The old lady's eyes fell on Doctor Huang's medicine box, and she smiled kindly, "Does Doctor Huang know why I sent someone to invite you over?"

Doctor Huang looked puzzled, "Didn't the old lady say she had a headache?"

The old lady nodded in satisfaction, "How is Zhang's going?"

"Reporting to the old lady, the lady was very angry, and then she became angry again. If the lady doesn't obey the doctor's advice, she probably won't recover in a while."

"Well, is the eldest lady still taking medicine?"

"Always there." Dr. Huang lowered his head. Although Zhang Xianglan didn't know about the contraceptive medicine, the old lady did.

This is also what the old lady told me after the eldest young master was raised.

"That's good, what's the situation with Mu Ran?"

"Fourth aunt is young, her body is good, and the fetus in her womb is all right." Doctor Huang couldn't figure out what the old lady meant, so he could only answer truthfully.

"Well, after all, he is a child of the Li family. Except for Qian's, you should pay more attention to Mu Ran."

"Yes."

The old lady waved her hand, signaling him to go down first.

Doctor Huang bowed his hands and got up to say goodbye.

After leaving the courtyard, Dr. Huang lowered his eyes, took a careful look behind him from the corner of his eye, and walked forward as if nothing had happened.

Nanny stood by the door, got up and walked in front of the old lady, "Old lady, Doctor Huang has gone back."

The old lady nodded, she picked up the tea she had brewed, looked at the tea leaves in it, and suddenly asked: "Nurse, do you think it's too condescending for Dr. Huang to stay in the mansion?"

After being reminded by the old lady, the nanny also found it unbelievable. According to Dr. Huang's medical skills, opening a medical clinic outside is much stronger than in Li's residence.

Why are you willing to stay in the Li Mansion for ten years?

The nanny and the old lady looked at each other, "The old lady thinks that Doctor Huang has something up his sleeve?"

The old lady shook her head lightly, expressing that she was not sure, what was in the Li residence that was worth lurking alone for ten years?

"Let Uncle Qiong check it out."

"Yes."

"Why do you think the master fell in love with that girl Muran?"

The old lady twitched the hand of the Buddha beads for a moment, Mu Ran that girl, after she ordered her to go to Yinan with Jiayi, she had a relationship with the master, so she was afraid that going to Yinan would not make life better in the mansion, so she deliberately To do such a despicable thing?

"That girl Muran is indeed pretty, she is similar in figure to the young lady when she was young."

Mammy didn't think too much about it. All men love beauty. Of course, the master can't be an exception, otherwise he wouldn't violate the old lady's order because of Zhang Xianglan and insist on marrying Zhang Xianglan.

The old lady nodded, so it is true.

She knew her son, if he didn't like it, he wouldn't have taken him as a concubine.

The old lady sighed, "That's all."

Dr. Huang paid attention to the road behind him, and found that no one was following him. Instead, he frowned. When he first went out, the old lady was obviously worried about herself, but she didn't send anyone to follow her back, maybe there was another trick.

He entered the room, saw Li Shunwei, put the medicine box aside, "Don't come to my place anytime soon."

Li Shunwei narrowed his eyes, "Uncle Huang, what happened?"

"The old lady is suspicious of me."

Seeing that his body froze, Dr. Huang gave him a sideways glance, and did not speak again.

He organized the medicinal herbs in an orderly manner, and then put the medicines of each wife into the medicine jar in order.

"Uncle Huang, what did the old lady tell you?"

Doctor Huang's hands stopped, "I asked about the situation of the ladies."

A look of displeasure flashed in Li Shunwei's eyes. Although his name was Dr. Huang, Uncle Huang, this man, other than his mother, had been hot and cold towards him all the time. When he asked questions, he answered them whenever he wanted to, and responded silently if he didn't want to.

He took a deep breath, with a faint smile on his face, "Uncle Huang, then I'll go back first."

"Well, let your mother drink the medicine well."

Li Shunwei nodded.

As soon as the people left, Doctor Huang let go of his clenched hands covered by his sleeves.

He spread out his palm, only to see the imprints of his nails engraved on the flesh of his palm.

He looked at the direction where Li Shunwei left, squinted his eyes, turned around and continued to work quietly.

Casino.

On the unpainted wooden table, there was a pot of tea, and the heat turned into a wisp of white smoke, which floated to the long table next to it.

There are peanuts and wine jars on the long table.

Li Chuyao and Dao Scarface sat on one side, with a bowl in front of them.

The wine jar was already empty, and Scarface still had more to say.

"Brother Scar, let's stop here today, let's continue with the business."

"Don't worry about your business, I still don't understand, I promise to take care of it for you."

Li Chuyao sighed, I'm afraid I won't be able to leave today if I'm not drunk.

Li Kuan came out from the secret door in time, holding two brocade boxes in his hand.He covered his nose, frowned and said, "How much did you drink?"

Scarface kicked the jar under his feet, "Do you want to count?"

Li Kuan snorted coldly, and handed the brocade box to Li Chuyao, "This is the jade chosen by my brother-in-law before, and it has been prepared according to your drawing."

Li Chuyao nodded, took the box, "Thank you, brother."

Li Kuan patted Li Chuyao on the shoulder, signaling him not to be polite, Li Kuan sat next to Li Chuyao, "Are you going to ask for a gambling debt?"

"Well, I have already explained to Mipu that Li Ren will cooperate with you."

"I wish you an early escape from the sea of ​​suffering." Li Kuan picked up an empty bowl and poured a glass of wine, clinking glasses with Li Chuyao.

Li Chuyao smiled, "I would like to borrow your elder brother's auspicious words."

Scarface stood up, sat down on the table, picked up the wine bowl and touched it, "Escape from the fire pit as soon as possible."

Li Chuyao picked up the wine bowl with both hands, "The meaning is in the wine."

After speaking, he raised his head and did it directly.

Scarface and Li Kuan looked at each other and drank the wine together.
