Chapter 249
"Then Li Mengdan is too much, sister, this matter can't be left alone!" Li Yuanxia said indignantly.

However, Li Yuanchun was a little irritable, and said in a bad tone: "Forget it, what can I do? Didn't my aunt say anything? She is the granddaughter of the patriarch's family. Parents will never give up because of such a point." Just go offend the patriarch's family for a trivial matter."

When Li Yuanchun said this, Li Yuanxia was also dumbfounded, but her expression was still not angry, and the handkerchief in her hand was twisted and crumpled.

Li Meier hurriedly stepped forward and persuaded: "Sister Yuanchun, Axia, I don't think my aunt is the kind of person who will take care of partial gangs, wait a little longer, she should give Sister Yuanchun an explanation."

"Mei'er is right. My aunt is a fair person, and she will definitely give us an explanation." Li Yuanxia's displeasure on his face eased a little, and he said pulling Li Yuanchun.

Li Yuanchun's expression softened a little, he nodded and said, "Then let's have a look."

The three of them said a few more words before leaving the room.On the way home, Li Mei'er couldn't help but let out a long sigh. It's inevitable that they, sisters from small families, will intrigue. Those big families, rich and noble, don't know what kind of brains they will fight with. .So, if she wants to marry in the future, she must marry someone with a simple mouth, otherwise she will be bored to death if she just fights back and forth on weekdays.

Mrs. Zhen's side, as expected by Li Meier, took action. That afternoon, she went to visit the patriarch's wife, Mrs. Liu.She and Mrs. Liu have been handkerchiefs since they were young, and their relationship has always been good, otherwise Mrs. Liu would not have accepted her two granddaughters as students as soon as Mrs. Liu asked her to do so.

"Why do you have time to come here today? I want to invite you to drink tea on weekdays, but you always push back and say that my place is too noisy." Mrs. Liu personally made tea for Mrs. Zhen and asked with a smile.

"It's not that you have invited me many times. If I don't come once, it will be too disrespectful to you." Mrs. Zhen Gu said with a smile.

"Then you can sit a little longer today, I just got some good dragon well, you taste it for me." Liu Shi also laughed, and asked the maid to put on the tea set again.

After the two tasted a round of tea, Mrs. Zhengu said again: "I'm here today, and I have one more thing to do. I want to apologize to you."

Mrs. Liu froze in holding the teacup, looked at Mrs. Zhengu and asked, "Where do you start with this?"

"You entrusted your granddaughter to me because you wanted me to teach them well and teach them to be dignified ladies. It's a pity that I failed your entrustment and failed to teach them well." Mrs. Zhen said with some self-blame.

"Ah Zhen, why do you have to say that, you taught sister Ying and sister Dan very well, anyone with eyes can see them, they can be said to be reborn a few years ago, it's all thanks to you. "Liu said sincerely.

Mrs. Zhen still shook her head, "Sister Ying is the eldest granddaughter, and she was taught very well by you. I was just adding to the icing on the cake. As for Sister Dan, I only taught her piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Neglected teaching on the item.”

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Liu frowned, and asked, "Did Sister Dan do something wrong? A Zhen, just teach her a lesson, don't worry about my face."

Mrs. Zhengu smiled slightly, and told Mrs. Liu what happened in class yesterday.

"I thought it was some misunderstanding between the sisters. Yuan Chun accidentally soiled Sister Dan's skirt. That skirt seemed to be a favorite of Sister Dan, and she was a little bit reluctant. But later I found out that things are not that simple. , it was Sister Dan who stained her skirt on purpose, and put the blame on Yuan Chun to make trouble."

"It's true!" Liu's face was livid in an instant, and she said in shame and annoyance, she really didn't expect her granddaughter to do such a vile thing.

"Ah Yi is going to ask Sister Dan in person. I think she would not dare to tell lies in front of you." Mrs. Zhen Gu said.

"I made you laugh at Zhen, it's not your fault, it's because I didn't teach my granddaughter well, I always thought that Sister Dan was more used to her when she was young, but I didn't expect her to become like this. "Mr. Liu said very ashamedly, almost ashamed to face her friend.

"I, as a teacher, naturally have responsibilities. I thought, now that Sister Dan is getting older, and she will be graduating next year, there is no need to go to my class for the time being. I will teach her everything that needs to be taught." , She can study at home by herself on weekdays, if she has any doubts about her studies, she can come and ask me alone." Mrs. Zhen Gu suggested as gently as possible.

Mrs. Liu didn't understand what she heard. Mrs. Zhen didn't want Li Mengdan to go to her class anymore. Although she felt shameful about it, her granddaughter made a mistake and was kicked out of school. She didn't have much to say. , can only nod and said: "Then do as you said, A Zhen."

Mrs. Zhen worked for a while, then got up to leave, and Mrs. Liu sent her out in person.After sending the person away, her face darkened, and she ordered the maid beside her, "Go and call the eldest grandma and the second young lady over."

The servant girl immediately took the order, and soon brought the two of them over.The eldest daughter-in-law of the Liu family is also surnamed Liu, and they are of the same family as the Liu family, but one is the main family and the other is a side branch.

Like the Li family, the Liu family is a rich family in Zhangshui Town, and the head of the Liu family is the largest silkworm merchant in Zhangshui Town. Compared with the Li family, the Liu family is much richer.

The Liu family was only a daughter of a branch of the Liu family back then, and her father was a scholar. He failed the exams for many years, so he simply set up a Meng school in his own house. Back then, the Li family was not as prosperous as it is now, and the schools in the family were not as prosperous as they are today. Before it was built, Liu's husband, Li Duan, the current patriarch of the Li family, was just a boy who was studying everywhere. He came to study in Liu's father's school. Because of his good talent, Liu Xiucai took a fancy to him. After passing the examination as a scholar, he betrothed his daughter to her.

It's a pity that Li Duan didn't go very well on the road of studying. After being selected as a scholar, he failed to succeed in repeated trials. Like his father-in-law, he stopped at a scholar. Respected by members of the Li family, besides finally becoming the patriarch, he himself is also capable, and gradually developed the family. Later, his eldest son relied on his connections in the clan to run a business, and the business became more and more prosperous. Big, his family is truly developed.

The Liu family also took a fancy to Li Duan's potential, so they betrothed the main family's prostitute daughter to Li Duan's eldest son, Li Rang.Mrs. Liu was also very happy about this marriage at the time. After all, the Liu family was still higher than the Li family in terms of family status, and the little Liu family was a daughter of the first wife. It's not bad either.
