"Wang Yong greets Mr. Li."
A voice came from behind Li Xuan. Li Yi saw a strange young man standing behind him.
"Who is this?" When Li Yi asked, he already had a guess in his heart.
He should be the person sent by the Wang family to discuss the cooperation.
In any case, the Wang family was one of the top aristocratic families in the Jing Country. As the head of the family, it was naturally impossible for him to be present. The person in front of him was most likely one of Li Xuan's brother-in-law.
Li Xuan introduced, "This is Qin 'er's elder brother."
Li Yi's heart slightly moved. The elder brother of the princess was the eldest son of the Wang family and the future head of the family. The Wang family sent Wang Yong here. This time, the Wang family was very sincere.
As Li Yi looked at Wang Yong, the young man in front of him was also looking at him.
There were few people in the whole Jing Kingdom who could make the Wang family take the initiative to cooperate with them. It was always others who begged them. However, this time, his father asked him to come in person, which was a very high standard of courtesy.
He had heard about all kinds of things about Mr. Li before. He fought with the envoy of the Qi Kingdom, beat up the prince of his own country, made a lot of fops in the capital, and made the King of Shu jump into the lake with his murderous eyes …
In short, the things that happened to Mr. Li could be said to be extremely legendary.
Today, the first feeling he had was surprise. He was surprised that the person who caused such a storm in the capital was so young. At such a young age, he had already obtained something that countless people, including the emperor, could not obtain in their whole lives. He was the only one in the young generation.
"Brother Wang, please." Li Yi stretched out his hand to the room and said with a smile.
The Wang family's attitude was enough to send the eldest son of the wife here. Of course, the Li family couldn't neglect it.
In the hall, the two people sat down. Li Xuan looked around and asked, "Where should I sit?"
"Go make a pot of tea and bring it here." Li Yi didn't want to ask Xiao Huan to come here. Li Xuan never regarded himself as an outsider here. Today, he would let him thoroughly feel the feeling of being the host.
…
"Thank you for your hospitality today, Mr. Li. Wang Yong will take his leave." An hour later, the eldest son of the Wang Clan stood at the entrance of the Li Residence and clasped his hands.
"Brother Wang, take care." Li Yi cupped his hands in greeting. Seeing that he and Li Xuan had boarded the carriage, he turned around and left.
He was only discussing business matters with the other party. After the conversation began, he went straight to the point. It didn't take long for them to reach an agreement on many issues.
Of course, the reason why they were able to come to an agreement so quickly was because the Wang family was indeed very sincere. They agreed to many of the conditions that he had set out without the slightest hesitation. It must be known that Li Yi had long been prepared for them to haggle, and some of the conditions were indeed harsh. However, he did not expect that Wang Yong would agree to all of the conditions.
In the past hour, he had wondered several times whether the Wang Clan had come to deliver the money.
In general, this conversation was carried out in a friendly and harmonious atmosphere, even to the point of being overly friendly. There was no free lunch in the world, which made Li Yi a little vigilant.
However, based on the current situation, everyone could earn money, and there was no harm to the Li family. As for what would happen in the future, he would wait and see.
Clans like the Cui Family and the Wang Clan, although they were rich and powerful, in his eyes, they were not that terrible.
After all, the foundation of these clans was largely based on their reputation among the common people or scholars. As for how to ruin their reputation and reputation, he actually did not know at all.
The few maids in the residence, surrounded Xiao Huan and chattered about something, Li Yi walked over, coughed lightly and immediately dispersed, each of them went to do their own things.
"Son-in-law." Xiao Huan blushed. No matter how Li Yi looked at her tied up hair, he found it strange. He pinched her face and said, "Come in."
In the room, beside the bronze mirror, the young maid asked with a bitter face, "Son-in-law, does Second Miss's hair not look good when she combs it?"
Li Yi finally understood why her hair looked so strange today. He spread her hair and said, "Your Second Miss looks good when she holds a sword and slashes people. Combing her hair … hehe."
"Son-in-law, let me do it." The young maid wanted to stand up from the chair but was pressed down by Li Yi.
"Don't move."
Hearing the words "don't move," as if she thought of something, the young maid's face immediately blushed.
As Li Yi combed her hair, he said, "Don't learn from your Second Miss. A girl who doesn't know how to cook, doesn't know how to do needlework, doesn't even comb her hair well, and likes to squander …"
Glancing at the bronze mirror, there was a clear flash of cold light in the direction of the door. Li Yi said without batting an eyelid, "Girls should squander. Silver is to be spent. Girls should not hang around the stove all day. They should be independent and self-reliant. You have to learn from Second Miss on this point …"
The sword in the bronze mirror disappeared. Li Yi heaved a sigh of relief. The young maid asked doubtfully, "But didn't Son-in-law just say that you don't want Xiao Huan to learn from Second Miss?"
"Don't move …" Li Yi pressed down on her head. "If you move, it will be messed up."
After a while, looking at the young maid who had two new buns of hair, Li Yi adjusted the position of the two buns and nodded. She finally looked more pleasing to the eye.
Xiao Huan wrinkled her nose and asked, "Son-in-law, does it really not look good when your hair is tied up?"
"It doesn't look good." Li Yi nodded and said straightforwardly.
"Hehe, then Xiao Huan will comb it like this in the future." When she skipped out, her eyes curved into crescent moons. This was the first time Son-in-law personally combed her hair …
She ran out of the door and saw a figure walking in from outside. She immediately jogged over. "Miss, you are back …"
…
…
"How was the vegetarian offering this time?" Ru Yi sat in front of the dressing table. She took off the pearl hairpin and replaced it with an ordinary hairpin. Li Yi walked over and asked.
"Everything went smoothly," Ruyi said with a smile, "Those things were done by the servants. I only watched from the side."
She thought of something and said, "Master Tan Yin of the Cold Mountain Temple asked me to send his regards to you. He said that if you have time, he would like to discuss Buddhism with you."
There was no time to discuss with a monk who suffered from being duped about how to dupe others. This was a secret that would not be passed on easily without a few thousand taels of silver.
"Xiao Huan … it was my wife who asked her to do this." Li Yi looked at her and asked.
Such a silly little servant girl with a child-like temperament would definitely not have the guts, and would not have the mood to do what she did last night. Although she denied it many times when he asked her, but the only person she would protect like this was Ruyi.
Ruyi said in a small voice, "Xiao Huan … is already sixteen. She was originally a tong fang, and she also likes you."
"Sixteen is still too young." Li Yi sighed and said, "At least wait until — twenty?"
Ruyi raised her head to look at him and said, "But hubby, I have not passed the age of peach and plum?"
Li Yi thought for a while and said, "Then nineteen, it cannot be any earlier …"
Ruyi lowered her head, "I was thinking, if Xiao Huan can give birth to a child for hubby, for the Li family …"
Li Yi's body stiffened slightly.
In order to ensure that the eldest son was the legitimate son, no matter if it was a servant girl or a concubine, they were not allowed to have children earlier than the legitimate wife. If such a thing happened in those aristocratic families, it might even involve lives …
Now, she actually did not even care about this?
One could imagine, before she made this decision, how much hesitation and struggle in her heart …
"Hubby …" She raised her head to look at Li Yi, her voice was already choked with sobs, "I, I'm sorry …"
A grandmaster, at this moment, was only an ordinary woman. The two tear stains on her extremely beautiful face were rather eye-catching.
"What's so good about a naughty child, so annoying." Li Yi's face darkened. He turned back and closed the door, carried her up and walked to the bedside.
"Hubby …"
"Shh, don't talk, doesn't my wife like naughty children, let's give birth now!"
…
"Strange, what are son-in-law and Miss doing inside, why did they close the door again?" The little servant girl stood at the door for a while, scratched her head and muttered in confusion.
