"Hmm, it's really blue!"
When he woke up, the person beside him had already disappeared. After asking Xiao Xi, he found out that his wife had already woken up and was now learning how to do accounts from his mother in the East Courtyard.
Although Li Zexuan was in charge of the Li family now, his mother would still calculate the accounts of some of the shops every once in a while. She was worried that her son would be fooled by the shopkeeper. After all, it wasn't as if the evil servant had never bullied the master before. Li Zexuan persuaded his mother a few times that she didn't have to work so hard. Now that he had a noble title, which evil servant would dare to bully him? However, his mother didn't listen to him and insisted on her own views. Li Zexuan could only give up trying to persuade her.
Now, the Li family welcomed a new mistress. Mrs. Li wanted to hand over the accounts of the shops in her hands and even the management of the Li family's internal affairs to Han Yuxi. As for herself, she would live a leisurely life and quietly wait to hold her grandson!
However, Han Yuxi had just married into the family. It was obviously unrealistic for her to take over so many things at once. Therefore, Madam Li started a "training class" for her daughter-in-law from today onwards. Han Yuxi was also very willing to learn. On one hand, she could use this opportunity to integrate into the Li family and become the mistress of the family as soon as possible. On the other hand, although Li Zexuan didn't care about her family background and loved her unconditionally, she didn't want to be a useless person. She wanted to share Li Zexuan's burdens.
However, her "student" had dark circles under her eyes today. After Madam Li saw it, she was secretly pleased. It seemed that the tonic soup she made for her son last night was effective!
Han Yuxi, on the other hand, was complaining in her heart that Li Zexuan had tormented her again last night. He was as energetic as an animal, but she did not know that the real culprit was actually the mother-in-law who was "teaching" her by her side.
Li Zexuan stood in front of the courtyard and twisted his waist a few times. He looked up happily and exclaimed that the sky of Tang Empire was really blue! Last night, when he felt the heat in his lower abdomen, coupled with the strange reaction of the two elders at the dining table, he understood that the soup that his mother made for him had added ingredients. The effect should be similar to the legendary all-nourishing soup.
Li Zexuan, who had figured out the crux of the matter, really did not know whether to laugh or cry last night. Han Yuxi's injury had not recovered, and he could not torment her there. Therefore, Li Zexuan, whose heart was burning, could only let his wife use other places to think of a way!
Since he had a good night's sleep, he naturally felt refreshed when he woke up in the morning. However, did he go overboard last night? Li Zexuan scratched his head embarrassedly when he remembered his wife's bitter face last night.
"Young Master, I'll get the kitchen to heat up your meal!"
After Xiao Xi poured away Li Zexuan's face wash water, she came over and said considerately.
"Oh! There's no need to heat it up. It's better to eat cold food on a hot day! "
Li Zexuan waved his hand and went to eat breakfast.
Since his wife was busy with serious matters, then shouldn't he also do some serious matters today? The architectural design for Yanhuang College had not even been finalized, and there were still a lot of things to arrange. He had been indulging in the life of a married couple for the past two days, and he had become a little dispirited. However, he could not continue to be dispirited like this!
Previously, he had resigned from the Imperial College in order to do something big. Of course, he also had the intention of using Yanhuang College to strengthen himself so that others would not dare to bully him casually in the future. Last time, it was the eight professors who stirred up trouble. He might have been able to handle it, but what if the eight assistant ministers stirred up trouble together next time?
At the end of the day, his foundation was still too shallow!
His current nobility was only obtained by relying on a few important inventions to Tang Dynasty. Compared to those nobles who obtained their nobility through military achievements, his current position was obviously not very stable. The reason why he was still living a comfortable life was completely because of Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, and the other nobles who came from the family of generals.
However, in life, how could one rely on others to lift them up? One had to be strong to forge iron! Yanhuang College was an important breakthrough for him to gain a foothold in Tang Dynasty. As a transmigrator, if one were to talk about what advantages he had compared to the ancient people, being an official in politics and mingling in the imperial court was definitely not a match for old foxes like Zhangsun Wuji. However, it was not impossible for him to lead an army and kill the enemy. In any case, he was now a martial arts expert who was half a step into Zongshi realm and was no longer a weak scholar. However, there were currently no important battles that required him to participate in personally. The battle that destroyed the Eastern Turkic Khaganate three years ago was still far away!
Thus, his most outstanding advantage should be his knowledge that was ahead of the times. In his previous life, even though he did not dare to say that he was a top student, he still had a solid grasp of engineering knowledge. In his profession, he had dabbled in optics, mechanics, electricity, and mathematics. Even if he had forgotten some of it, he could use his perverse mental strength to recall it.
With such a good prerequisite, of course, he would not waste it. Thus, he wanted to establish Yanhuang College. He wanted to establish his own sect and become the founder of engineering in Tang Dynasty, a grandmaster of his generation. He wanted to nurture a large batch of outstanding engineering students and turn them into his comrades. Together, they would use engineering to change the entire Tang Dynasty!
At that time, with Yanhuang College as his foundation and a large batch of engineering students as his backing, who would be so blind as to find trouble with him? His family and future children would also have a solid guarantee.
Just as Li Zexuan was complacently preparing to start the construction of Yanhuang College, San Bao reported that Chonghua Workshop's Cao Wendong had requested to meet him.
As for Cao Wendong, Li Zexuan had heard from Sun Huaiyuan and Ma Zhou that this person's repeated actions were deliberately to curry favor with him!
Li Zexuan had never believed that there was love without a reason in this world, so he was sure that this Cao Wendong must have some ulterior motive. However, he had been busy with marriage and being lovey-dovey with his wife recently, so he had temporarily put this person at the back of his mind. He did not expect that Cao Wendong would come just as he had time. This person was really in a hurry.
"Bring him in!"
Li Zexuan ordered softly.
Regardless of whether Cao Wendong had other requests or not, since he had taken the initiative to express his goodwill, he had to meet him. As for whether he would agree to the other party's request, he could only wait and see when the time came.
"Yes, Young Master!"
A moment later, a slightly plump middle-aged man in purple followed San Bao into the hall.
"Young Master, Boss Cao is here!"
San Bao cupped her hands and said.
"Mm."
Li Zexuan nodded and gestured for San Bao to leave. Then, he carefully sized up the person in front of him. Other than his slightly large belly, Cao Wendong's appearance was considered average. At the very least, he was not very annoying.
"Greetings, Lord Jue ~! I hope Lord Jue can forgive my rudeness for coming uninvited ~! "
Li Zexuan could size up Cao Wendong, but Cao Wendong did not dare to look at Li Zexuan so unscrupulously. Once he entered the room, he kept his head down and looked at his feet obediently. He shuffled to Li Zexuan in small steps and bowed respectfully.
