The daily routine of wearing a book and abusing literature to cultivate a scholar and Xiaoxianggong

Chapter 103 Late Night Interlude

After a long time, the medicine was finally cooked.Qin Jin used two bowls to pour the medicine back and forth to cool it down, and then served it to Luo Shi who was sitting in the hall.

Pei Zhiqi and Li Xiaodao had already washed up when Qin Jin decocted the medicine, and they were also sitting in the hall at this time. Li Xiaodao was yawning, and she was usually asleep at this time.

Everyone can go to sleep after Roche finishes drinking the medicine.

At this time, there was a heavy knock on the door outside, accompanied by a familiar shout: "Xiaodao ~ open the door—Xiaodao..."

"It's my brother knocking on the door! I'll go and see", why did this brother knock on the door again in the middle of the night?
Is it...

Hearing the knock on the door, Li Xiaodao was about to get up, Pei Zhiqi held her down, stood up and said, "Let me go."

Li Xiaodao didn't insist anymore, and sat down obediently. She was indeed a little sleepy and yawned profusely.

When Pei Zhiqi opened the door, he saw Li Xiaoxin shivering in his underwear and a ragged blanket that someone gave him, standing at the door and saying, "Brother-in-law, let me in quickly, I have to live here tonight."

After finishing speaking, Li Xiaoxin was not polite, and stepped into the courtyard and walked towards the hall.

Li Xiaodao also stood up at this time, she glanced at her brother who was about to enter the door in disheveled clothes, hurried to the door to stop him, and whispered: "Brother, wait a moment, your dress is too impolite, wait a moment—— "

"What are you doing..." Li Xiaoxin was too cold to wait, "I was kicked out by your sister-in-law, what's the matter, I'm not allowed to enter here?"

Li Xiaodao covered his mouth with a smile and said: "No! Luo Shi and Mr. Qin are still inside, I'll let them go to rest if I run out of Luo Shi's medicine."

"Oh...then hurry up! I'm going to freeze to death!" Li Xiaoxin wrapped the torn blanket tighter.

Qin Jin and Luo Shi also heard it in the main room. Luo Shi hurriedly drank the medicine, greeted Li Xiaodao, and went up to the second floor with Qin Jin.

"When you go up the stairs, there is the guest bedroom on the left. It's a little dark. Be careful, both of you!" Li Xiaodao reminded.

"Okay, thank you Miss Li and Brother Pei, Zhuojing and I will go to rest first," Qin Jin replied politely.

"Okay, you two sleepy—"

As soon as Qin Jin and Luo Shi went upstairs, Li Xiaoxin rushed into the hall and sat in front of the charcoal stove to warm up the fire. He looked depressed and said nothing.

Li Xiaodao stood beside his elder brother, and put his hands on it to warm him up. At this time, Pei Zhiqi also locked the courtyard door again and went back to the main room.

Li Xiaoxin glanced at his brother-in-law who entered the door, then at Li Xiaodao, shook his head and sighed, "Brother-in-law, you are really blessed to marry my sister. She has been reasonable since she was a child, and she loves reasoning in everything. She would never do such a big deal." Kicking you out of the house in the middle of the night and leaving you to fend for yourself in a thin coat outside in winter."

"This..." Pei Zhiqi didn't know how to answer, Li Xiaodao gave Xianggong a look, signaling him to go upstairs first.

After receiving the signal, Pei Zhiqi hurried upstairs quietly.

Two siblings, Li Xiaodao and Li Xiaoxin, remained in the hall.

"Brother... why were you kicked out by sister-in-law today?" Li Xiaodao asked softly.

"Hey! It's not for a little money. I wanted to put away the money I saved recently, but my wife saw it and cried and said that I must have other ideas for hiding the money, but I don't hide it. She won't give me some money, so what do I get for the Chinese New Year? And I haven't been home for several years, I can't go home to honor my parents without saving some money..."

Speaking of which, Li Xiaoxin was actually a little sad.

"Oh...it's okay, it's okay, it's said that husband and wife quarrel at the head of the bed and at the end of the bed, it will be fine tomorrow," Li Xiaodao comforted.

"It's not that easy! I have to put my face down to coax, I really don't want to coax this time! Whatever you want, let's live this life, and let it go!" Li Xiaoxin was also a little annoyed.

Li Xiaodao saw that his brother was angry, so he didn't say much, and poured a cup of bean tea for his brother, "Brother, drink some, to warm up."

"It's still my sister who loves me." Li Xiaoxin stood up with a cup of tea. There was a charcoal stove in the room, which made it very warm. He put the blanket on his body casually, found a chair and sat down, drinking hot tea in sips.

"Tell me, your sister-in-law wasn't like this before, why did she become like this now? It's getting more and more unreasonable, and it doesn't even make sense," Li Xiaoxin sighed.

"Maybe my sister-in-law has never been pregnant and I'm too nervous." In ancient times, it was much worse for a woman not to give birth to a child, Li Xiaodao thought.

"I understand her, and I didn't rush her! I haven't come home, and our parents can't talk to her. Why is she so anxious?"

Li Xiaodao also sat down next to his elder brother, and slowly said while thinking: "Because a man can not only marry one wife, but also have many concubines, but for a woman, if she is determined for a lifetime, only this man can't marry him." Marry a few more, maybe my sister-in-law has no sense of security. She is afraid that she will never have children. If you want to take a concubine, she cannot stop her. She is afraid that she will never get your care and love again. Child, you can still divorce her with one piece of paper, of course she is in a hurry. "

What the younger sister said made Li Xiaoxin lose his temper, and he just poured tea into his stomach, unable to speak.

After a while, Li Xiaoxin saw his younger sister sitting there yawning, and said in a soft tone: "Go to sleep, unfortunately the guest room is occupied by the couple who came to see the doctor today, you bring me a quilt, I will Tonight will be settled on the bench in this main room."

"Okay... I'll go up and get it. The charcoal fire will be burning tonight, but the one next to the window in the main room has to be open, otherwise it will be very dangerous."

"Oh, I know! If you don't open the window for the charcoal stove, you will be poisoned. I know better than you! Go and get the quilt for me." Li Xiaoxin seemed a little exhausted, so he lay down on the bench first.

To get another quilt, Li Xiaodao subconsciously went up to the second floor and entered the master bedroom. Seeing that the husband had already changed into his underwear and lay down, she smiled slightly at him and said, "Brother will sleep here all night." Unfortunately, Mr. Qin came to use the guest room, so he had to lie on the bench in the main room all night, and I came up to get him a quilt..."

He opened the closet door and saw that the place where the quilts were placed was empty, Li Xiaodao remembered that there were four quilts in the house, two were in the guest bedroom and two were in the master bedroom, they were all used up, are there any more?
This……

Li Xiaodao closed the cabinet door and went downstairs.

"Brother, there are no extra quilts. There are four beds in the house. There are two beds in the guest room, and my husband and I have two beds. What should I do? Otherwise, I'll go to the next door and ask Mrs. Wang to take out the quilt quietly?"

"No! I have always suspected that there is Madam's eyeliner at home. Otherwise, why did Madam just go up to the small attic when I went to hide money in the small attic? If you go over now, Madam will know that I am not standing properly in front of the door. Then It will be even more difficult to coax her well tomorrow!"

"This...then you don't even have a quilt, how can you sleep at night?" Li Xiaodao worried.

"Let's not talk about the two couples in the guest room. If a woman is pregnant, she should have two quilts. Why do you and your brother-in-law sleep in two separate quilts? What a waste, you go to the master bedroom and get a bed for me! "

ah?Li Xiaodao was stunned.
