"Broken telegraph machine? How can you play with a broken telegraph machine for so long? "
Li Zexuan said angrily as he reached out to pinch the little girl's cheeks.
"Ah! Isn't there nothing else to play with? Brother and Iron Egg used to go to the Imperial College every day. It's boring for Lan 'er to be alone at home! "
Lan 'er kept shaking her little head as she tried to get away from her brother's evil grip.
It's boring for Lan 'er to be alone at home …
When Li Zexuan heard this, he felt a little uncomfortable. The hand that was going to pinch Lan 'er's cheeks gently landed on the little girl's hair bun. Li Zexuan said gently, "It's my fault. Brother will accompany Lan' er often in the future!"
"En en!"
Lan 'er nodded happily. Suddenly, she rolled her eyes and said mischievously, "Hehe! I don't want to! When the time comes, Sister Yuxi will play with Lan 'er! I don't need you anymore, brother! "
Li Zexuan was speechless. This little girl was worried for nothing.
"Young Master! The Han family's bedding team has arrived. Master wants you to go out quickly! "
Just when Li Zexuan wanted to teach this little girl a lesson, Xiao Xi ran over in a panic. The little girl might have run too fast as her face was red.
Lan 'er had been scolded by Madam Li many times. She knew that her current appearance was indecent. When she saw Xiao Xi come in, she quickly jumped down from Li Zexuan's lap and stood at the side, pretending to be an obedient girl.
This obviously deceiving action made Xiao Xi smile. Actually, she was already used to this phenomenon. Even if she saw it, she wouldn't go out and say anything.
"Oh? You're here so soon ~? Okay, I'll go and take a look! "
Li Zexuan patted his thigh, got up and said a few words before leaving the room.
"Sigh! Lan 'er wants to go too. Brother, wait! "
…
When they arrived at the front yard, they saw that the yard was filled with all kinds of gifts, from silk and cloth to porcelain, gold and silver, to carriages and horses for food. There were eight pieces of each, and eight large carriages were pulled by copper coins. It wasn't that the Han family was stingy, but that these were just gifts to settle down in bed, and not part of the dowry. The dowry was calculated separately.
According to the etiquette, the bride's dowry would only be sent over after the bed was set up.
"Master ~!"
Iron Egg came over and cupped his hands in salute.
After Li Zexuan announced his independence at the Imperial College yesterday, Iron Egg didn't need to go to the School of Mathematics anymore. Moreover, he went back to the Han Family Village yesterday afternoon. After all, his father was busy at home and it was hard for him. He could help out when he went home. It had to be said that after studying at the School of Mathematics for a few months, Iron Egg had become much more sensible.
Today, the Han Family came over to settle the bed. It was inconvenient for Han Tianhu to come, so Iron Egg came along.
"Hehe, Iron Egg, you can't call me Master anymore. You should call me Brother-in-law ~!"
A chubby woman walked out. It was Liu Yuee. It was rare for her to say something witty in front of Li Zexuan on this festive day, but no one blamed her.
She and Old Hu were both wearing bright red clothes today, and they looked very festive.
Unlike other big families, which had a lot of direct relatives, Han Tianhu came to the Han Family Village after experiencing war. The Han Family was really a small family. They didn't have a matriarch, so Han Tianhu could only invite Hu Hanyun and Liu Yuee over to settle the bed. Logically speaking, he could also invite Qin Qiong and Old Madam Qin. After all, they were Han Yuxi's adoptive parents. However, those two's status was too high, and Han Tianhu couldn't bring himself to invite them!
"You silly woman, how dare you make a joke about Young Master!"
Old Hu tugged at his wife's arm and said angrily.
"Haha ~! Yue`e is right! Old Hu, don't blame her. And all of you, come in and have some tea and pastries. Don't stand on ceremony! "
Li Jingmo quickly waved his hand and said to the people in the courtyard with a smile.
"Thank you, Old Master!"
This time, the Han Family brought a lot of gifts. Other than a few carts of copper coins, the rest of the things were all picked by people. Half of the Han Family Village's youths came to help.
"Haha! Yes, yes, yes! Auntie Liu is right! Uncle Hu, you guys have worked hard! "
Li Zexuan hadn't seen Old Hu for a long time. When he saw him today, he felt very close to him. Back then, when Han Yuxi was robbed at Rhinoceros Slope, Old Hu stepped forward regardless of his own safety and delayed for a while. In the end, Li Zexuan successfully rescued Han Yuxi. Li Zexuan would not forget this kindness.
"It's not hard, it's not hard. Young Master, what are you talking about? This is what I, Old Hu, should do!"
Putting aside the benefits that Li Zexuan brought to the Han Family Village, his son and daughter's illness were cured with Li Zexuan's help. Li Zexuan was grateful to him, but he was even more grateful to Li Zexuan.
"Heh ~! As expected, how are you guys doing recently? I haven't seen the two of them in a long time! "
Li Zexuan saw that his father had called the rest of the people in for tea and pastries, so he chatted with Old Hu as they walked.
"Hehe ~! Good, good, good. Thanks to you, Young Master, everything is fine! Now, this child is running around the Han Family Village. There are many farmers there who want to learn his skills! Yue`e and I really miss this child! "
Old Hu scratched his head and chuckled. Then, he said with a face full of nostalgia.
"Why? She hasn't come back yet? "
Li Zexuan frowned and asked worriedly.
He couldn't help but think in his heart. Could it be that Yue`e and Yue`e met some evil people outside and encountered some danger?
"Heh ~! Young Master, don't worry. That girl just replied to me a few days ago. Yue`e and I are illiterate. We only understood after we found Yue`e from the Han Family. The letter said that Great Immortal Sun wanted to refine a type of medicine and lacked one ingredient. She and Great Immortal Sun have been picking herbs in the Taibai Mountain area recently and helping the villagers there to treat their illnesses! There's no danger! "
Old Hu looked at Li Zexuan's expression and quickly waved his hand with a smile.
Taibai Mountain was also known as Changbai Mountain. The name of Changbai Mountain had changed many times in history. Before the Qin Dynasty, it was known as Buxian Mountain (meaning "Mountain with God"). The "Classic of Mountains and Seas" recorded, "In the vast wilderness, there was a mountain named Buxian because of the reverence of the people." That was Changbai Mountain. In the Han Dynasty, it was known as Dandan Daling. In the Wei Dynasty, it was known as Gaima Mountain. In the later Wei Dynasty, it was known as Tutai Mountain. In the Northern and Southern Dynasties, it was known as Congtai Mountain and Taihuang Mountain. In the Tang Dynasty, it was known as Taibai Mountain.
In the Qing Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty regarded Changbai Mountain as the birthplace of their ancestors. They sealed the mountain and offered sacrifices to the gods. They also designated it as a forbidden area and forbade ordinary people from entering. It became a place where no one could enter. Even in the twenty-first century, the Changbai Mountain still maintained its primitive state. It was almost like the time when Pangu first created the world.
"Haha! That's good! Uncle Hu, come in and have a seat ~! "
Li Zexuan smiled in relief.
…
After everyone rested in the front hall for a while, Li Jingmo and Mrs. Li brought Hu Hanyun, Liu Yuee, and the others to the western courtyard and began the bedding ceremony.
They chose the room that Li Zexuan usually slept in because it was the largest and most luxurious room. However, in the next two days, Li Zexuan could only sleep in the other small guest rooms. After the bedding ceremony, no one was allowed to enter the new room or touch the new bed until the wedding night.
When they arrived at the door, Old Hu took off his shoes and was about to go in to place the new bed. A few young men from the Han Family Village nimbly covered their mouths and noses and jumped far away before Old Hu bent over.
Old Hu was so angry that his face turned red. He wanted to scold them but was afraid of offending them. He could only say angrily, "Niu Dazhuang, Han Erhu, why did you guys jump so far away ~? I've been soaking my feet for two hours every day since half a month ago just to be here to make the bed today! "
"Hahaha ~!"
Old Man Li and the people who came with him laughed. Liu Yuee looked at Old Hu's face and was so angry that she stomped her feet.
Li Zexuan also couldn't help but laugh. He thought to himself that Old Hu still had some funny genes in him.
