Happy Little Scholar
Chapter 326: What a sin...
The old man fell into a deep sleep, while the aunt was packing things in the house. The fat boy Li Yingcai and Duanwu sat on the big rock at the door, showing off their treasured delicacies one by one. No one knew how many things he could hide in his arms. The fragrance spread far away, attracting several children to hide aside and swallow their saliva. 』』
"Come on, don't be polite, eat."
He pushed all the things to Duanwu generously, patted his chest and said, "I still have a lot at home, I'll treat you to something better next time..."
After thinking for a while, he added, "But you have to treat me to your noodles."
The temptation of food to children is still not small. Finally, a little girl about seven or eight years old walked over slowly, pointed to a pastry in a paper bag, and said, "Little brother, can I eat this?"
The little fat man showed a kind smile on his face and said very straightforwardly, "No!"
Watching the little girl walk away with a pursed mouth and tears, the little fat man curled his lips. The reason why he gave these good things to Duanwu was because she was the eldest brother's sister, that is, his own sister. Don't think that he didn't see that she was one of the people who surrounded Duanwu just now, and he wanted to ask him for food. It's wishful thinking!
"Master, do you need to discuss this matter with your family?" At the door, the old man surnamed Li looked at Li Yi and said with embarrassment.
"Why do we need to discuss this?" Li Yi looked at him and asked.
The old man surnamed Li sighed and said, "In fact, the family has helped them a lot over the years, but it has never been made public, otherwise it will cause greater dissatisfaction in the Chen family. Once they get serious, the He family will face greater trouble.
It is not impossible for the young master to take them back home, but at least he has to discuss it with the old lady or the second master. Many people in the Li family are still brooding over what happened back then. If the young master does not make a sound like this, he will encounter considerable resistance."
Li Yi heard this and shook his head, saying, "I am not planning to take them back to the Li family."
The old man was stunned when he heard this. When he was about to ask, Li Yi had already ordered the Li family guards who followed him to find a sedan chair on the street, and the other guards were asked to walk in from the alley and guard here.
"What happened to the He family?"
"I don't know. Why are there so many people? Is someone here to cause trouble again?"
"Their family has always been very strange. Who knows what happened? However, judging from their appearance, are they going to move?"
"So what if they moved? I heard that the He family offended a powerful person in the capital. Haven't you seen how they have survived all these years? Even if they moved away, I'm afraid they will end up the same way."

People who also lived in the alley kept coming to the door, looking in the direction of the He family, pointing and talking in a low voice.
One of the middle-aged women in a coarse cloth skirt saw the scene in front of the He family's door. After her face changed several times, she quietly walked out of the alley.
At this time, Li Yi and the two children were already walking on the street.
Seeing the patched clothes on the little girl, Li Yi frowned and planned to take her to a tailor shop first.
Because of the lack of a unified size system, there are no ready-made clothing stores on the streets here. Generally, clothes are made to measure and need to be ordered in advance.
There are many clothes in the tailor shop, all of which are ordered by others. It is not difficult to find one that suits the little girl.
"Sir, this is reserved by other customers and cannot be sold. Otherwise, measure the size of this little girl first, and then choose a piece of fabric that you are satisfied with. Two days, just two days, two days later, you come back to pick it up, and I guarantee that your clothes will be ready!" The shopkeeper of the tailor shop said with difficulty.
However, the difficulty on his face disappeared when he saw the ingot of silver on the table.
"This dress looks really good on the little girl. There are a few more good ones here. Do you want to take a look?" He packed up a few clothes together and sent Li Yi out the door with a flattering face, "Sir, take care, welcome to come again next time!"
There is actually only one piece of clothing between the ugly duckling and the white swan.
A new dress and a few suitable ornaments can complete the perfect transformation from a little beggar to a little princess.
Coming out of the ornament shop, Li Yi pinched her little face and said, "You are just too thin. You need to eat more in the future to grow meat."
The little fat man agreed with this statement very much. He patted his chest muscles and said proudly, "Yes, you need to eat more to grow as strong as me!"
The little girl nodded and secretly decided that she must not eat more in the future...
She held Li Yi's hand tightly, fearing that he would disappear as soon as she let go, just like he suddenly appeared.
If her brother disappeared, no one would buy her new clothes and beautiful ornaments. Thinking of her appearance in the mirror just now, she felt unprecedented happiness in her heart.
After renting a yard in an inn and paying a deposit, Li Yi returned to the street with his two children.
They were not suitable to live in the Li family, but if they were outside, they would have to worry about the revenge of the Duke's Mansion.
After finding someone on the street to get an address, he bought two dough figurines from a roadside stall, one for each of them. The fat boy bit off the head of the dough figurine and muttered that there was not enough honey in the dough figurine and it had no taste...
Li Yi was thinking about something else.
Because he received modern education, he always thought that elopement was very romantic. Modern people pursue free love and have promoted the story of elopement for love in ancient times to a very high level. The story of Sima Xiangru and Zhuo Wenjun in "Phoenix Seeking Phoenix" has made many people envious.
However, the reality is cruel. Sima Xiangru and Zhuo Wenjun have been such a pair since ancient times. In the end, Zhuo Wenjun had to sing "I wish to find a person who is like-minded, and we will never leave each other" to make Sima Xiangru change his mind...
Even such an ending is very good. Li Yi has read the criminal files of Anxi County. Because of elopement, there are countless cases where the man was expelled from the clan and the woman was sunk into the pond and filled with wells.
Like his parents, the ending is actually quite good.
After all, the two still escaped the shackles of the family. Although the days in Lijia Village were hard, they should still be very happy in their hearts. This can be felt in his memory.
However, in the distant capital, there are still some people who suffer the suffering they should not suffer for them.
The Chen and Li families lost face because of such an incident, but it was a small matter.
What crime did the other members of the He family commit? Should they suffer revenge for twenty years?
What mistake did the young lady of the Chen family make to ruin her lifelong happiness?
Thinking of this, Li Yi couldn't even blame the Chen family too much.
With his status, he naturally couldn't blame his parents.
"What a sin..." The stories are all lies. He never believed in romantic love stories again. Li Yi sighed deeply in his heart and stopped thinking about this matter.
At this time, they had walked to the door of a magnificent mansion.
"Stop, who are you and what are you doing here?" The young doorman was sitting on a chair and drinking tea leisurely. When he saw someone walking up the steps, he immediately came over.
"Please go in and report that the friend of His Royal Highness the Prince is here." It was the first time that Li Yi came to the Prince's Mansion. The doorman was very unfamiliar and was not originally from the Ning Wang Mansion.
The doorman glanced at the three people. A young man with two children, what kind of strange combination is this?
He doesn't even have an attendant around him, so he must not be of noble status...
Claiming to be the friend of His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness has only been in Beijing for a few days. The places he often goes to are the palace and the Prince's Mansion. How can he have any friends? Could this guy be pretending to be the friend of His Royal Highness to ask for money?
Having been a doorman for many years, he still has some ability to judge people. Who is the Prince? The friends he knows are naturally rich or noble. The temperament of a superior person can't be faked. Does the person in front of him really think that he can pretend to be the friend of His Royal Highness by wearing a decent piece of clothing?
"Go away, go wherever it's cool. His Royal Highness is very busy and can't meet everyone..." The doorman waved his hand impatiently. There are so many people who want to visit the Prince every day. If he disturbed His Royal Highness every time someone came, he should have packed up and left long ago.
What's more, this guy didn't even have the most basic visiting card. He lacked the most basic sincerity!
"You bastard, how can you talk like that!" The young doorman was about to go back to drink his tea, but before he turned around, he was kicked on the butt and immediately rolled on the ground.
