Chapter 164 Marriage
In the inner hall, the two saw that the people leading to Li Yuan's study kept coming in and out, obviously they were busy with business.After sitting for about half an hour, Liu Zhenghui was summoned by Li Yuan, and strode in immediately.At the moment, Li Hu was left alone sitting in the inner hall, waiting alone.Li Hu was quite disturbed in his heart, he didn't know how many cups of buttermilk he drank, and he didn't know what Liu Zhenghui said, whether it would succeed or not.

After a while, footsteps finally came from the direction of the study, and Li Hu hurriedly looked up, only to see Liu Zhenghui with his sleeves fluttering, his face beaming with joy.Li Hu hastily greeted him and before he could speak, Liu Zhenghui cupped his hands first, with a smile all over his face, he said in a loud voice: "I would like to congratulate the Chief Escort here, and congratulate the Chief Escort."

Li Hu was overjoyed at the moment, and asked in a trembling voice, "Did Mr. Tang agree?"

Liu Zhenghui laughed and said, "It's finally a blessing to not disgrace my life."

"Thank you so much Brother Liu." Li Hu made a big bow immediately.Liu Zhenghui hurriedly avoided, saying: "Don't dare to do it, don't dare to do it."

Liu Zhenghui said: "However, Mr. Tang still has some details, and I want to discuss them with you."

At that moment, Li Hu narrowed his eyes slightly and asked, "What's the matter?"

Liu Zhenghui laughed and said: "I don't know about this, but I think the Li family is everyone, and Mr. Tang is staying behind in Taiyuan. There are always many rules. The head of the escort might as well discuss it with Mr. Tang."

"That's right, that's right." Li Hu took a deep breath when he heard the words, and said, "It's true that the marriage of the two families is not so easy. It needs to be carefully considered. I'll go to see Mr. Tang to discuss it." At that moment, Li Hu and Liu Zhenghui cupped his hands, and under the leadership of Li's family officials, he strode straight to the study.Liu Zhenghui looked at Li Hu's back, but slowly shook his head.

In the inner courtyard of Liushou Mansion, the breeze blew, causing the wicker to sway.As the only legitimate daughter of the Li family, Li Zhiwan's Xiulou is located in the best position in the courtyard. Looking from the pavilion, it is right next to a small pond, shaded by willow trees, and silk-like wicker rests quietly on the water. Quite a bit of the refinement of Jiangnan.Right now on Li Zhiwan's desk are several kinds of shortbread stuffed with plum blossoms, with some honey on top, and the plate that holds the shortbread is a pattern of Magu's birthday greetings.There are four servant girls, big and small, serving on the side. If the Li family is such a powerful family, there are several maids and maids in the family who are custom-made.

"Third Sister, your female popularity has improved a lot recently." A graceful and luxurious woman sat diagonally across from Li Zhiwan and said softly.

Li Zhiwan pinched her forehead and said, "Second sister-in-law, you should stop making fun of me."

The other party chuckled a few times, Li Zhiwan glanced at the other party, remembering her mother's words, she would always compare herself with this second sister-in-law unconsciously, and blame herself for her faults afterwards.All day long, she was worried that she would be angry with her husband's family in the future.Thinking of this, a blush floated on Li Zhiwan's face, and she thought that Li Chongjiu would dare to give herself a little bit of color when she passed the door in the future, but then she felt melancholy thinking that the one-year period Li Chongjiu had agreed with herself would end. But, why hasn't the other party come to propose marriage yet?

Speaking of this, Li Zhiwan suddenly asked: "Second sister-in-law, I saw some rooms in the west courtyard this morning. Mama Sun brought a few maids to tidy up there today. Who wants to live in?"

The eldest grandson Wugou put down the teacup in front of him, glanced at Li Zhiwan, and said, "That's right, sister Ruohua from Chengji's hometown is coming next month, so mother ordered Sun Mama to clean up and get some air."

"Sister Ruohua?" A gleam of joy appeared on Li Zhiwan's face. Her mother had four sons and one daughter, and there was only one girl, so when she was young, she always played with her concubine sisters.But having said that, Li Yuan has a total of more than a dozen daughters, and there are not many of them who are close friends with Li Zhiwan.Seeing that the other party had no abnormal expression, Changsun Wugou took a sip of the tea soup, and then heaved a sigh of relief.

The doorman of the Li family can speak eloquently, while chatting with Li Hu, at the same time they reached the steps in front of the study, the porter said, "Master, Chief Li's bodyguard has arrived."

As the voice fell, the curtain of the study door opened, and an official was wearing a Jinxian hat and a purple robe with a Yong collar. He had three long beards in front of him, and his appearance was elegant. Who else could he be if it wasn't Li Yuan.Seeing that Li Yuan came out to meet him in person, Li Hu immediately stepped forward and said, "How dare you bother Mr. Tang to come down to meet you in person."

Hearing this, Li Yuan laughed and said, "Boss Chief Li, no, I'm taking the liberty to call you Brother Li. From now on, everyone will be a family, so I won't say such polite words." Li Hu still had doubts about Liu Zhenghui's words before, Seeing that Li Yuan personally confirmed it, he couldn't help but be overjoyed.
Immediately, the two of them entered the room, divided the host and guest and sat down, and the two servants at the side brought two bowls of drinks, and then retreated.Li Yuan smiled slowly and said: "The little girl is rough, and the old man is not around for a long time, so it is difficult to discipline her, but luckily her temper is not bad. It is my son's blessing that Brother Li did not give up today."

Li Hu smiled slightly when he heard this, she had seen Li Zhiwan's temperament before, and she didn't seem to be a good-tempered woman.But Li Hu said with a smile: "Mr. Tang is too modest, too modest. It is our father and son's honor to be able to marry the daughter of Mr. Tang's family."

Li Yuan put down his bowl and said: "Brother Li is too modest, and your son is one of the best talents in a hundred. To be honest, it is rare to see such a young man today. I have always refused to accept my old age, but after meeting my son, I also feel that the younger generation is awesome. "

Which father doesn't like others to praise his son, let alone from someone like Li Yuan, Li Hu was very happy to hear it, but he still said modestly: "Where, where, Mr. Tang praised you absurdly."

Li Yuan smiled slightly, and immediately asked, "Where is Brother Li's hometown?"

"Sangzi?" Li Hu was surprised.

Li Yuan smiled, repeated it again, and said, "Where is the native place? Inherited by the clan?"

Li Hu said truthfully at the moment: "In Shiai County, Taiyuan County, as for the ancestors, I have been orphans since I was a child. It is impossible to verify. Could it be related to the marriage of the two families?" Speaking of this, Li Hu was inevitably a little nervous.

Li Yuan smiled slightly and said, "Brother Li, it's okay, I'm just asking casually."

Seeing that Li Yuan didn't take it seriously, Li Hu felt that the other party really didn't mean to look down on his family background. He also thought of what Liu Zhenghui said just now, Mr. Tang had to discuss with him on small matters, and he thought that the Li family is a big family, and there must be many rules about marriage. , asked now.

Li Yuan laughed and said: "My Li family ancestor was only favored by the Holy Emperor. He has some luck and a rather poor reputation. In fact, when it comes to big marriages, there are not so many rules. It's just that my daughter is from Chengji. Come from my hometown, you also know that the road is full of chaos and chaos, and it may take another month to arrive, so there is a delay in the appointment, brother Li, please forgive me."
"Cheng Ji?" Li Hu couldn't help being surprised when he heard this, and felt that he had made a mistake.
