Chapter 24 Back to the Door
On the third day after the wedding, as soon as Xiao Lian got up, Li Ying followed suit.Today is the day to return home, so nothing can go wrong.

Xiao Lian did not ride a horse today, but shared a carriage with Li Ying.When the carriage stopped outside the gate of Li's residence, he naturally jumped out of the carriage first and helped her down slowly.

Li Huan and Zhao Minyi, who heard the noise and were going to greet them outside the door, saw this scene, and their two hearts were relieved.Naturally, they already knew that what happened to Zhao Minying was purely a misunderstanding, but who was Xiao Lian?If he really wanted to care about it, he might not be able to pay for the entire Li family.

However, looking at the pair of Bi people in front of them, the prince not only accompanied Yinger back home, but was also so considerate, presumably Yinger's escape must be held high and then put down gently.Li Huan and Zhao Minyi smiled at each other in relief.

"Father, mother, Ying'er is back." Li Ying jumped on Zhao Minyi like a butterfly.

"Oh, I'm already a princess, can you be more cautious?"

"No." Li Ying acted like a baby in Zhao Minyi's arms, "With her parents, Ying'er will always only be a daughter."

Standing behind her, Xiao Lian looked at her who had justly taught him a lesson last night, and now she turned into a little girl who hadn't grown up, her eyes were full of smiles.

"Go in quickly, don't stand at the door." Li Huan greeted.

As soon as Xiao Lian entered the door, Li Huan forced her to sit in the front hall drinking tea and chatting, while Li Ying was dragged into her original boudoir by Zhao Minyi at some point.

Before Zhao Minyi closed the door, he made sure that no one was listening to the corner outside the door.

"Mother, why are you sneaking around in broad daylight?" Li Ying was at a loss.

Zhao Minyi sat next to Li Ying, touched left and right, and confirmed it inside and out, before he relaxed and said, "My lord didn't let you be wronged, did he?"

Li Ying was even more confused: "How can he make me feel wronged?"

Zhao Minyi blinked: "What else, of course it is that aspect."

When Li Ying was facing Xiao Lian, she was able to think about it, and it took her a long time to react to such an obvious hint to her own mother before she realized it.

Li Ying's face turned red like a boiled crab: "Mother, what nonsense are you talking about?"

"Mother was supposed to have a good talk with you before you got married, but she was so busy that day that she forgot the most important thing! Mother was so anxious that I couldn't sleep well these days, I was afraid that you..."

"Mother~" Li Ying couldn't listen any longer, she stopped the conversation and said, "My lord and I haven't been husband and wife yet."

"What?!" Now it was Zhao Minyi's turn to be dumbfounded, "What's going on, what's going on? Does the prince have some hidden disease?"

Thinking of this possibility, Zhao Minyi almost ran around in a hurry.

"Mother, calm down, guess what!" Li Ying really couldn't laugh or cry, "I didn't let the prince touch it."

The expression on Zhao Minyi's face changed from worry to disbelief, "Ying'er, how could you..."

"Mother, I'm still young, so I don't want to conceive so early." It's true. In her previous life, Li Ying met too many young women in the palace who lost their lives in order to give birth to princes and daughters.

Of course, she didn't tell Zhao Minyi about the deeper reason: Although the misunderstanding of Xiao Lian because of Zhao Minying had been resolved, she still hadn't crossed the hurdle of "Xiao Lian is the executioner who killed his whole family" in her heart.

I want to entrust him with my body and mind, unless she completely lets go.

Now is far from the time.

"My lord, he actually agreed?"

Li Ying nodded.

Zhao Minyi didn't know what to say for a moment, and swallowed all the tens of thousands of words in his stomach.In the end, she stroked her daughter's hair on the sideburns, and said: "You live your own life, if you think it's good, then that's good."

Li Ying understood Zhao Minyi's mood, she squeezed Zhao Minyi's hand, and said: "Mother, don't worry, my daughter has her own opinion."

Xiao Lian and Li Huan chatted from astronomy to geography, from the founding of the country to the present, from poetry and songs to formation of troops, and drank three pots of Longjing tea, and Li Ying was still missing.

When Xiao Lian looked at the small door leading to the backyard for the tenth time, Li Ying finally came back, but Xiao Lian immediately turned his head, pretending to be chatting with Li Huan: "Master Li is very interested in the border defense of the Northern Region." This king has benefited a lot from my insights today."

Li Huan saw through but didn't tell, he stroked his beard with a smile and said, "My lord, thank you, thank you."

"It's still Master Li, it's time to call it father-in-law." This style of hearing the voice before seeing the person, who is it not Zhao Minying?
Li Ying and Xiao Lian looked at each other, Zhao Minyi hurriedly explained: "Your aunt sold the ancestral house of the Hou Mansion, and now she moved to the next door to our Li Mansion, I'm so busy, I didn't mention it to you."

Zhao Minying stepped into the front hall with a smile on her face, and said with a smile: "I have long thought that today is the day when Ying'er returns home, but I didn't expect that not only Ying'er was here, but also the prince would accompany him personally, I really envy others."

Li Ying gave Zhao Minyi a puzzled look. Zhao Minyi saw that they were all his own people, so he simply said: "Ying'er, since your aunt was sent back to prison, she has changed her mind and started a new life. She lost all her work, and she felt relieved."

Xiao Lian nodded in agreement, "This is a good thing."

Zhao Minying thanked Xiao Lian sincerely: "It's all thanks to the prince's blessing. If you hadn't allowed me to donate my family wealth to the public to avoid the pain of prison, I might be trapped in that money-losing prison for the rest of my life." I can't turn over in the gutter."

"It's time to come back after all the money is gone. Only when you get the money in a proper way can you feel at ease." Xiao Lian said.

Li Ying thought to himself, it turned out that there was a story behind his aunt's case of letting go of money, and he had never mentioned it to her.

"That day in the Sanfa Division, I let out the anger I had held in my heart for more than ten years. I thought that I and Lord Hou would be separated from each other, but who would have thought that I would fake my death again? Conscience found out, not only did I not blame what I did before, but also promised to be more considerate of my difficulties from now on.”

As Zhao Minying spoke, her nose became a little acidic. In just a few days, she had experienced ups and downs in life. Just when she thought she would have nothing, God opened his eyes again and took all the things she cherished one by one. sent back to her.

"People in the world say that blessings are covered by misfortunes, and misfortunes are relied upon by blessings. Now I understand it."

Li Ying looked at her aunt again. She used to love to dress up and show off, but now she is dressed plainly, without showing off at all, and her temperament is completely different from before, like a bottle of old wine that has gone through time, becoming more and more mellow up.

That's great, Li Ying couldn't help but feel happy for her aunt.Xiao Lian, does this count as unintentional planting of willows and willows?Li Ying looked at Xiao Lian quietly, and found that he was also looking at her, Li Ying quickly withdrew her gaze, but her face couldn't stop blushing.

"Okay, in this happy scene, you don't have to have a few drinks for lunch!" Li Huan clapped his hands and laughed.

"Hey, wait." Zhao Minying interrupted suddenly, "One yard is worth one yard. Although the prince is kind to me, but as Yinger's aunt, I have to say, it's time to change the name you call our family. !"

Xiao Lian was not used to dealing with these situations, so he didn't know how to act for a while.

Li Ying walked to his side in three steps and two steps, pulled him and knelt down to Li Huan and Zhao Minying together: "Father, mother, please accept my daughter's worship."

After speaking, he quietly touched Xiao Lian with his elbow, implying that it was his turn.

Xiao Lian had never said the word "father and mother" in front of anyone, and for a while, he really had a hard time opening his mouth, so Xiao Lian made a compromise and said, "Father-in-law and mother-in-law are on top, please be respected by your son-in-law. "

Li Huan and his wife, who were still worried about whether they could force others to do so, immediately smiled and agreed repeatedly.Li Huan said: "Good son-in-law, father knows that there is nothing missing in the palace, this is a meeting gift for you, don't think it is simple."

Xiao Lian took a box from Li Huan, stood up and opened it solemnly. There was a painting in the box.

Xiao Lian then slowly unfolded the painting in front of everyone, and Li Ying's face flushed and turned pale with his movements.

"Father, why did you give this to others!"

Li Huan said with a smile: "What's the matter with giving this? You ask my son-in-law if he likes it."

This painting is not a masterpiece by a famous artist. It was "Strong Bamboo" painted by Li Ying himself when Xiao Lian first visited Li's mansion and wanted to flatter him but accidentally photographed it on the horse's leg.

"Father, he said that this painting is not strong enough, what a pity!" Li Ying said that he wanted to take the painting back from Xiao Lian's hand, but Xiao Lian easily dodged it.

Xiao Lian quickly said: "The bamboo painted by Madam is the reincarnation of Zheng Banqiao. I will choose Madam's one without hesitation."

Li Ying was ashamed and annoyed, everyone laughed together.

When it arrived at Si time, Li Ying looked around and said, "Why don't you see brother?"

As soon as Li Xuan was mentioned, Zhao Minyi became angry: "This careless person, I don't know what medicine he took wrongly. These days, he is clamoring to practice martial arts every day. Now he is doing well, even the teacher has been chased away by him. Let’s go, I had a big fight with me yesterday, I guess I’m shutting myself in the room to get angry.”

Li Ying felt strange: "That's good, why did brother come up with the idea of ​​practicing martial arts again?"

Xiao Lian, the instigator at the side, had no choice but to stand up and admit: "This matter has something to do with me."

Li Ying glanced at him, with five words written all over his face: "Why is it you again?"

"Cough... On the day of our wedding, brother insisted on blocking the door to let me in, so I promised him that as long as he would let me in, I would teach him martial arts."

Li Ying didn't know that Xiao Lian had done so many "good things" behind his back!
"So don't blame Brother, blame me if you want to." Xiao Lian apologized to Li Huan and his wife, and then asked the doubts in his heart: "It's just that my son-in-law doesn't understand something. Gold and iron horses, and soldiers on the battlefield are originally the ambitions of a man, why don't his father-in-law and his mother-in-law want my younger brother to practice martial arts?"

Li Huan sighed, and said slowly, "Lian'er, can I call you that?"

Xiao Lian nodded.

"You don't know, Lian'er. My father, and my two older brothers, that is, Xuan'er's grandfather and uncle, all died on the battlefield."

Xiao Lian frowned and recalled: "Is it the war between China and the Kingdom of Jin more than ten years ago?"

"That's right. That battle broke up many families in Da Ling Chao...including me. Without my father and two elder brothers, I, a useless poor scholar, became the only seedling of the old Li family."

Li Huan looked like an old scholar, and he couldn't tell at all that he was born in a military family.

"Before she died, my mother told me that if I have a child in the future, I must not let him go to the battlefield. This is why I have been reluctant to let Xuan'er practice martial arts."

Hearing this, Xiao Lian was silent for a while before he opened his mouth and said: "Father-in-law, if there is no skin left, how can the general be attached? If everyone has such an idea, will there be anyone in Da Ling who joins the army? Without Da Ling, there will be no one." There will be tens of thousands of small families, so how can we live a stable and prosperous life today?

Yinger and brother's grandfather and uncle died on the battlefield, which is a sad tragedy for Xiaojia, but for Daling, they are heroes and people who are always worth remembering.

I believe that if they were asked to choose again, they would still go to the battlefield without hesitation and sacrifice their lives for the country.

So father-in-law and mother-in-law, don't stop Xuan'er, don't do harm in the name of love, I know my brother's background, he is a rare and good seedling, give him a chance, he will surely grow into a towering tree.

If you two are still worried, I, Xiao Lian, swear today that as long as you agree to my brother's wish, one day he will really go to the battlefield. As long as I, Xiao Lian, have breath, I will protect each other with my life and keep my brother safe ! "

 Every day I wonder if anyone is reading my post~
