After being divorced, my identity as a poet was exposed

Chapter 22 Hate
Li Chenan didn't know that the first meeting with Liu Zhuo was done on purpose by Hua Manting.

His concern was still with his tavern.

The decoration of the tavern and the preparations for those utensils have now been completed, and the next step is to make wine.

Sitting under the gazebo in the small courtyard, I carefully recalled the whole process of wine making, and put it on the paper. I looked again carefully, and found that the most time-consuming thing was fermentation.

Fermentation takes ten to 20 days.

Although it is possible to make wine after four days of fermentation, since this work is done, it should be done more perfectly, so let’s finish the previous steps today, and wait for 20 days before brewing and opening. There is no rush.

There are more than 80 taels of silver left in his pocket, enough to live on his own for a while.

Thinking of this, he stuffed this piece of paper into his bosom, went to the bedroom in the East Wing to get the two pieces of calligraphy he got from Mrs. Hua Manting last night, and he walked out of the tavern.

I have to find a frame shop to frame the poem about drinking, and make a plaque with the name of the tavern.

Leaving the work to a paste shop in West Market, he walked towards Li Ji's grain shop.

It's not that I'm worried that Li Xiaohua ran away after collecting the deposit of ten taels of silver, the main thing is that nothing happened.

But when he just walked to that street, he found that Li Xiaohua's shop was full of people.

A tragic voice came from the crowd: "Damn it! My son is just doing business, how did he end up like this!"

It was a woman's voice, full of grief.

Li Chenan frowned and hurried over, squeezed into the crowd, and saw a woman sitting on the ground beating her chest and crying.

"what happened?"

He knelt down in front of the woman.

"My son, my son was arrested by the government!"

"Li Xiaohua?"

"Exactly..."

The woman raised her head, and grabbed Li Chenan's hand, as if grabbing a life-saving straw, "Young master knows my son? Young master, can you save my son? I will be your cow for the rest of my life." Willing to be a horse!"

Li Chenan didn't withdraw his hand, "Don't worry, tell me carefully what happened?"

"Master, a customer came to the store yesterday, and my little flower sold him some food... That customer is a good man! He needs a lot of food, and he promised to let my little flower go to his house to be a nursing home... My son is very happy I was happy, so I sent the food, and when I came back, I told my slave family that the young master would buy all the food for my family, and said that today we, my mother and I, can move to the young master's house."

"The slave family thought that God had opened their eyes, but they didn't expect that just now, some villains rushed into my shop."

"They said we shouldn't sell grain to that young master, and that my son broke their master's rules."

"My son reasoned with them, but they beat me with sticks."

"My son couldn't bear it and fought back. My son was so strong, how could he control it at that time, so... my son injured them."

"They reported to the officials, and the officials just arrested my son!"

"Young master, I beg you to save my son, I kowtow to you!"

Li Chenan lifted her up, the expression on his face was a little scary, no need to ask, this matter must have been done by Shen Qianshan from the Shen family!
"Ma'am, I'm the son who bought your food!"

"Ah, benefactor, please save my son!"

"Don't worry, I will definitely rescue Xiao Hua. You are unwell, so go stay indoors, and I'll go to the yamen right now!"

"Okay, okay, thank you benefactor!"

Li Chen'an got up and squeezed out of the crowd, thought for a while, and walked towards the Guangling City Yamen on Bell Tower Street with a gloomy expression.

The group of people in the West Market still didn't disperse. At this moment, someone raised a question: "Hey, wasn't that young man just now Li Chen'an?"

"Which Li Chenan?"

"It's Li Chen'an from our Li Mansion in Guangling City who was kicked out by his father!"

"It's really him. He used to open a steamed pastry shop and bought flour from my house."

"What is that fool buying so much food for?"

"Who knows? I heard that the Shen family has taken back the marriage certificate... Do you think this is a revenge method used by the Shen family for the grievances these days?"

"Then the Shen family is not right either, you want to seek revenge on that idiot, why did you bully Xiao Hua!"

"Hey, hey, just now Li Chen'an said that he will definitely save Xiao Hua... Do you think it is possible?"

"Cut! Why is he? If he asks his father to go to the Yamen to spend some money to make some connections, it depends on whether the Shen family will intervene in the Yamen. He was kicked out of the house by his father. Where did he come from?" Such a great ability to get people from the yamen?"

When Li Xiaohua's mother heard this, she was filled with despair, and only then did she realize that the nobleman her son thought she had found was actually that idiot Li Chenan!
"My son... you are blind!"

……

……

Zhongli Mansion.

Zhongli Ruoshui was biting her pen while looking at her second brother Zhongli Qiuyang.

"What? Don't believe it?"

Zhongli Qiuyang sat opposite Zhongli Ruoshui, "I am your second brother! Is it possible that I will harm you if such an important matter is accomplished?!"

"There are countless talented people in the world, I said you have always been shrewd, why did you become stubborn this time?"

Zhongli Qiuyang leaned over and tapped his fingers on the table, "Brother has checked everything about Li Chen'an for you, and told you clearly."

"Brother also believes that people will change, but do you believe that a person who can't even memorize the Three Character Classic can make such good words?"

"You are 16 years old, don't be so childish, okay?"

"That's right, these days he is indeed a little different from before, but that's just a little bit different. But it's changed from the original steamed cake shop to the current tavern. If you want me to say, his steamed cake shop is still open at least Three years, but his tavern will be closed in three months at most!"

"Sister, my own sister!"

"Brother Suan, I beg you, okay? Wake up, if you marry him, our Zhongli Mansion really can't afford to be ashamed of that!"

Zhongli Ruoshui bit the pen and rattled, the expression on her face didn't change at all when she heard Zhongli Qiuyang's words.

"Finished?"

She loosened the handle of the brush and put the pen on the pen stand.

"It's not over yet!"

"Then keep talking!"

"I'm just asking you, what's wrong with Cheng Zhe? Even if you don't like Cheng Zhe's wielding of knives and guns, Qi Zhixue should be fine, right?"

"The grandson of the Duke of Qi's mansion, the future Duke of Qi, who is talented, educated and rich, should be your favorite?"

"Don't say second brother, I don't understand what you're thinking. Father and mother can't accept it either!"

"Leaving aside the status, your husband-in-law must be a scholar at the very least, right? Isn't that a high requirement? But Li Chen'an is just a white man..."

"Second brother!"

Zhongli Ruoshui interrupted Zhongli Qiuyang's words.

"Don't forget your grandma's identity!"

Zhongli Qiuyang was taken aback, "Grandma is at least an expert!"

"Li Chen'an is also a master of literature!"

"...How did he become everyone?"

Zhongli Ruoshui stood up, raising his delicate eyebrows, "Master Hua Man Ting Hua said, don't you believe me? Go ask him!"

"Where are you going?"

"Hee hee, I'm going to talk to Master Hua about poetry and articles."

"Cheng Guogong will be here soon."

"So what? I don't have time for him."
