My hotel is ancient and modern

Chapter 256 Li Family
The Republic of China is quite chaotic. Even young girls like Chen Jiayue have read a lot of time-travel novels, but that’s just for reading. They have imagined what would happen if they really time-traveled, but they are very self-aware. , According to my own IQ, I will definitely not live for a few days.

So even if they really traveled to the Republic of China with the store manager now, they never thought about leaving Yujia Village to visit other places, it was too dangerous.

The period of the Republic of China was not a modern society ruled by law. Socialist flower growers could be assured of security, but in the era of warlord separatism, they absolutely did not dare to wander around.

So Chen Wenjiu and his group stayed in Yujia Village, and when everyone in the village went to pick thorn fruits, they would help or go out to play.They are here for team building, not for work, so they will not help pick fruits all the time.

Chen Wenjiu and the others found out that Yu Chunsheng and Li Yan had negotiated to buy the thorn fruit, and then they didn't care about it. Anyway, she just waited to get the money.

The hotel staff only stayed in Yujia Village for three days, that is, after one day in the hotel, they went back.

After all, other people have to go to work, and they have been relaxing and playing here for three days, how can they continue to stay?

In fact, the thorny fruits in Yujia Village have not been picked in three days, but the fruits picked in these three days have been sold to Li Yan.

Chen Wenjiu also specially sent a relatively large scale, the kind that can weigh 500 catties at a stretch, so that people in Yujia Village can weigh when selling fruit.

This scale was directly given to Yujia Village, and the thorn fruit will continue to bear fruit in the future, and they will continue to sell the fruit, so of course this scale is very much needed.

On the first day of fruit picking in Yujia Village, he harvested a lot of fruits. The whole village gathered about [-] to [-] catties of thorn fruits in one day.In three days, two-thirds of the thorn fruit had been picked, and the remaining one-third would take two or three days to pick.

Li Yan looked at the thorn fruit in the warehouse, and remembered that he had sent the thorn fruit back to Chang'an City after purchasing it on the first day, and sent a batch back to the Li family and the Wei family for them to taste.

Their side of Qin Province is not so desolate. After all, Chang'an City used to be the capital of ancient times. If the surrounding area is desolate, how can it be the capital?
It's just that it's January now, and it's hard to eat frozen fruits. Even if the Li family and the Wei family are as big as they are, it's impossible for so many people to eat fresh fruits.

Most of the fruits that Li Yan bought were because he wanted to give his family some fresh fruits to eat in the winter, and the Wei family sent some fresh fruits to eat. As for making wine and using them as medicine, they were just incidental.

Chang'an City, Li Family.

"Yun Mo brought home a batch of fresh fruits, which I haven't seen before." Li Yan's mother said while looking at the washed thorn fruits on the plate.

Yunmo is Li Yan's calligraphy, men still had calligraphy in the Republic of China.Li Yan's surname is Li, his name is Yan, and his style name is Yunmo.

"Where did he buy so many fruits? It must weigh tens of thousands of catties." Li Yan's father was also very puzzled, where did his son buy fresh fruits?
"These fruits don't look like they've been picked for a long time, maybe only a few days."

It does take two or three days to get from Yujia Village to Chang'an City. After two or three days of running around, the fruits sent by Li Yan are not as fresh as they were picked just now, but they are not as fresh as they were just picked. It seems to have been picked for a long time.

"I heard that Yunmo bought these from a village in City X. I heard that there are more than 200 mu of this kind of fruit planted there, and it just ripened recently."

"Yunmo bought these fruits when the fruits in this village were ripe for picking." Li Yan's mother said with a smile.

Li Yan's father's health is actually not that good. The reason why his son supported the Li family at a young age is because he was injured before. Although he is better now, he still has sequelae and needs to rest well.

So Li's family is supported by Li Yan and Li Yan's mother. Li Yan's mother is not a weak housewife, she is also very powerful. She is also a strong woman who has learned business methods from her father since she was a child.

The reason why Li Yan was able to control the Li family so quickly these years is because of her mother helping him, otherwise the young Li Yan would have been suppressed by the relatives, uncles and shopkeepers of the Li family. .

"We can't finish eating tens of thousands of catties of fruit, and we'll share some among those houses." Li Yan's mother said lightly, with the same smile on her face.

The few rooms she mentioned were not only Li Yan's father's brothers or uncles, but also Li Yan's concubine younger brothers and sisters.

Li Yan is the eldest son, and has a younger sister who is the same mother as him, but in fact, Li Yan's father also has several aunts like most men, and besides Li Yan, there are three sons born by concubines.

However, even though Li Yan's father had concubine sons, like many patriarchs, he still valued the eldest son the most, and the most respected wife was the concubine, so even though the concubine sons were his sons, they couldn't cross the line. Li Yan.

Mrs. Li didn't have any ideas, after all, this is the way of the world, men who don't take concubines are really rare, and Li Yan's father is obviously not that kind of man.

As for the concubine's children, Madam Li didn't have any thoughts about them, as long as they didn't try to provoke her and her children's status, and didn't try to compete with her son for family property, she could treat them as no different from others.

Li Yan's father nodded when he heard what his wife said. He didn't have too many opinions on his relatives and his concubine son. After all, he had already retreated behind the scenes, so he didn't want to care too much about things.

Mrs. Li looked at the man in front of her. He was not very old. He could give birth to a handsome and gentle son like Li Yan. He was also very handsome when he was young.

Now even when she is old, she can still see his handsome appearance. Wasn't she also in love with this face and his tenderness when she just married him back then?
But it's a pity that although this man is very shrewd in the business field, he doesn't have that much thought when dealing with women.

In his opinion, marrying a wife means that one should marry a wife and have children when one is old, and to treat her well after marrying home is to give her all the housekeeping rights, and giving her the greatest authority is enough.

As for taking concubines, what man does not take concubines?Which rich and powerful man only has one woman?Moreover, the Li family is so big and successful, how can there only be one child?Of course it is to take concubines and have more children.

Li Yan is only 23 years old this year, and his father has retired to the background five years ago, maybe because of his injury, but also because he is actually old.

Mrs. Li failed to have children for five or six years after marrying him. Why?Of course it was because of the struggle between the women in the backyard, Li Yan's father had two spouses before marrying her.

Later, one year after she married into the Li family, she promoted the two houses to aunts; after three years after she married into the Li family, there were more and more aunts in the backyard.

She was pregnant before Li Yan, but the first child was accidentally aborted because she was inexperienced. No one tried to blackmail her that time, it was purely because she was inexperienced and too tired, so she aborted.

She had raised her body for a year, and originally wanted to conceive a child soon after her body was restored, but the aunt in the backyard also had a miscarriage, and she was pointed at her.

Mrs. Li was really wronged, her natal family background is not too different from Li's family, is she still afraid that the aunt's child in the backyard will surpass her child?Why did she want her aunt to have a miscarriage?Is she stupid to be tainted with something that shouldn't be in vain?

But at that time, Master Li was still very young, so he believed it. Even though it was later found out that it was the aunt who framed Mrs. Li, the estrangement between Master Li and her had already arisen.

Madam Li is very clear that she and Master Li are two married couples. When they first got married, they both looked good. It is normal to have a good impression of each other, tenderness is normal.

Later, Mr. Li became estranged from her, but he didn't dare to treat her as his regular wife badly, and he wouldn't easily tear himself apart with her natal family.

Mrs. Li was disheartened at that time, and the feelings she had had because of his handsomeness and intimacy after marriage gradually faded away.

Later, after Mrs. Li figured it out, she concentrated on her career and developing her own power, and she did not put her affection on Master Li for a long time.

Of course she carefully prepared to conceive Li Yan, her dignified wife has no children, so should the future family property be left to the concubine's children?She doesn't want it.

She didn't care about all kinds of things back then, anyway, now that the Li family is her son's head, even if she was asked to face Master Li, a man she had loved and hated before, and finally didn't care about, she would be at peace.

"Ma'am, Zijun is already weak, so it's time to plan for his marriage?" Mr. Li looked at Mrs. Li who was eating thorns and said, "Yunmo is in his twenties, and he is not far away to get married and follow him." , but it’s time for Zijun and the others to get married.”

Zijun is the name of the second son of Master Li's concubine, the second young master of the Li family.The second young master's biological mother had no quarrel with Mrs. Li, she treated him fairly well and did not suppress him.

The second young master is now in charge of part of the Li family's business. Although Li Yan is the person in power, he will not let go of his concubine brothers. Since he is capable, he will work for him to make money. He can't work hard to support the poor , not even his younger brother.

Madam Li heard the words and looked at Master Li, and asked calmly, "Which girl does the master want to choose for Zijun?"

"The girl from the Mu family in Xianyang next door is pretty good." Master Li said, "Didn't the Mu family come to Chang'an to discuss business before? I talked to the head of the Mu family, and he mentioned that he has a daughter from a concubine, which is good."

Madam Li frowned slightly and said, "Are you from Xianyang? Is the Mu family willing?"

"Why don't you want to? What's wrong with our Zijun?" Master Li said, but he felt that all his sons were excellent.

Madam Li shrugged and said, "That's fine, Zijun is twenty and Jun Yi is nineteen, it's time to arrange marriage."

"Zijun has chosen the girl from the Mu family, what about Junyi?"

Jun Yi is the third young master of the Li family, he is only one year older than the second young master, but who made their biological mothers different?The age gap is not that big, that's for granted.

On the contrary, the fourth young master of the Li family, he is only 13 years old this year, not yet ready for marriage, and only at the age of studying at ease.

"Let's settle on the girl from the Gao family, the girl from their family is also pretty good." Master Li said after thinking for a while.

Mrs. Li glanced at Master Li when she heard the words, there was no change on her face but she couldn't help laughing in her heart.The second young master decided to be a girl from the Mu family in Xianyang, and the third young master is a girl from the Gao family?

One must know that the Gao family is incomparable with the Mu family and the Li family. Isn't the girl who appointed the third young master the Gao family afraid that he would be unbalanced?

Sure enough, Mr. Li likes the woman who can give birth to a son after her even more. After all these years, he still protects her son so much.

Although Mrs. Li and the second young master's biological mother did not have any quarrels, seeing that Master Li dotes on her and protects her son so much, she is actually full of resentment towards Master Li.She didn't think about that aunt, but she hated Master Li's passion even more.

Madam Li thought for a while and said, "Let's decide on the girl from the Lin family for Jun Yi, the fourth girl from the Lin family is a pretty good girl."

At least the girl from the Lin family is more suitable for the third young master than the girl from the Gao family.

The couple discussed the marriage of the two concubine sons. As for Mr. Li's concubine daughters, they were married long ago when they were old enough. The oldest one who hasn't married yet is only 12 years old. Don't worry.

On the Li family's side, they talked about Li Yan from the thorn fruit, and then from Li Yan to the marriage of the concubine, while the Wei family on the other side was much simpler.

Of the [-] catties of thorn fruits that Li Yan sent back, [-] catties were sent to Li's house, and [-] catties were sent to Wei's house. The euphemistic name was "thanks to Marshal Wei for his protection, and rewarded the soldiers with fresh fruits."

After receiving the [-]-jin thorn fruit, Wei Ying tasted a few of them and thought the taste was very good. He also knew that the fruit was edible, so he simply divided up the [-]-jin fruit.

Of course, he only distributed the [-] catties of fruit to his personal guards. With so many people in the Northwest Army, he couldn't distribute all the fruit to everyone, so he only gave it to his personal guards.

The rest of the Northwest Army are very envious, but who made it a gift from Young Master Li to Young Marshal Wei?Marshal Wei is also domineering. Although everyone admires him, he dare not complain.

The people who received the things from the young marshal were very happy. It is very rare to be able to eat such fresh fruits in winter.

Especially the thorn fruit is really delicious, the juice is rich and sweet, and everyone is very happy after eating the fruit.

The soldiers praised Young Marshal Wei for his generosity while eating. Of course, when they praised Young Marshal Wei, they did not forget to bring Young Master Li with them. These were the fruits that Young Master Li gave them.

Young Master Li is really the God of Wealth of their Northwest Army. I hope Young Master Li will be well all the time. Young Master Li will live a long life and be prosperous.
