Good luck every time

Li Jixiang admired his naive look.

This man has no other problems except that his family is poor.

He was a hard-working and diligent man, he did not look down on women, and he was obedient and dutiful. Li Jixiang remembered what he had heard recently, so he waited for Li Shiwu to come into the house and mentioned it to him.

"Brother Fifteen, my Fourth Aunt Sun said that someone has asked her about you recently, so you should be more careful these days!"

Li Shiwu was somewhat surprised and couldn't suppress the smile on his face.

"Really? Really?"

Li Jixiang's eyes narrowed into slits due to his laughter.

"Of course it's true. However, marriage is also about fate. If it's not suitable, you can't be together. You just wait a while. Just behave well these days."

The brother and sister have been spending every day together these days. Li Shiwu is already 18 years old after the Chinese New Year and is extremely eager to find a wife.

A Cai sat aside, watching the brother and sister talking and laughing, and also revealed a faint smile.

She likes her current life very much, and likes the Li sisters and Grandma Ding even more.

When the three of them finished talking, Li Ruyi had already come out of the house.

"Brother Fifteen, my master said that from now on, Sister Acai and my sister will both practice internal skills, and what you will practice may be different."

"If you also want to practice internal skills, you can come earlier in the future. If you don't want to practice, you can practice at home and come before dinner."

Li Shiwu hesitated. Although he didn't like to learn to read, it didn't mean he didn't like to practice martial arts.

For him, wielding swords and guns was much more interesting than writing poetry.

Li Shiwu was just worried that if he came over with a shameless face, it would affect Li Er.

This man had a very simple mind. Li Ruyi could see the worry in his heart at a glance and shook his head speechlessly.

"You don't have to worry about that. The mental methods you and my sister practice are all external mental methods. They are different from what we practice. They are mainly for strengthening the body. They don't involve the internal door matters and don't affect anything."

Li Shiwu then felt relieved and nodded in agreement with a happy face.

When he heard two good things this morning, his heart was so excited!

In contrast to his good mood, Li Er, who was sitting in the warehouse, was still counting with his pen bitten.

He has made a lot of miscalculations during this period. Although the amount is not much, this problem must be solved as soon as possible.

It’s rainy days and you can’t go out, so it’s perfect for studying at home.

Granny Ding was meditating at the moment and had no intention of teaching other disciples, so she quietly told her secrets to Li Ruyi and asked Li Ruyi to pass it on.

In Grandma Ding's mind, her inheritance will belong to Li Ruyi and the third child in the future. As long as they can still learn, there is nothing that cannot be taught.

Li Ruyi has just started martial arts after all, and is a rookie in the world, but it is enough for him to teach his elder sister and the others.

After teaching for a day, I didn’t expect that the one who learned the fastest was Acai.

It’s not because Acai is old, but because Li Ruyi talked about certain acupoints, which Li Jixiang and Li Shiwu cannot fully understand. However, as long as Li Ruyi points on Acai, her pain will remind her of the location.

The way she records is probably through the scars all over her body.

No one can tell where all that they have experienced will be useful.

The rain lasted for two days.

The eldest sister was afraid that the third child would catch a cold, so she heated up the house.

Li Ruyi couldn't stand it anymore and slept with the cat in the shed at night.

Grandma Ding also moved to the side closest to the wall.

The third child couldn't stand it either, but the eldest sister's love and care would not allow her to resist at all.

In such a light rain.

News came from the provincial capital that Li Xi had passed the provincial examination.

Li Laoliu's house was very lively. Everyone said that Li Xi was going to become a scholar at such a young age. People who flattered him lined up from the gate of Li Laoliu's house to the foot of the mountain.

Li Er felt unhappy when he heard this.

Having been in contact with Han Shian for such a long time, he has a good impression of Han Shian.

The more he saw, the more he could feel the difference between Li Ruyi and Han Shian.

He always had a feeling that Li Xi was not worthy of being compared with the other party.

But if he said this to others, he would not be recognized but would only be ridiculed mercilessly.

There might even be some name-calling.

No matter how much he hates Li Xi, he is still a member of the Li family. No matter how powerful Han Shian is, it has nothing to do with him!

Another person who is as unhappy as Li Er is the patriarch of the Han family.

Chief Han heard that Li Xi had passed the provincial examination and would be able to take part in the academy examination in August and become a scholar!

He was so angry that he didn't eat that night. He stood in the yard and cursed Han Shian until midnight.

Many people heard it as a joke and ran to Li's house to humiliate Li Ruyi.

Those who were jealous but didn't dare to jump out before, now jumped out again.

Li Ershi was very angry.

But Li Ruyi was very calm. Not only was she calm, she even asked Li Ershi to take a generous gift to Li Laoliu.

Li Ershi was still upset when he went out with his things, but his expression became strange when he came back.

Li Ruyu saw his appearance and found it funny.

This child still lacks experience and cannot see through people's hearts.

Li Er tried to hold it in for the whole morning but failed. Finally, he found a time when Li Ruyi was boiling medicine and came to tell her about it.

"There are some things I don't quite understand!"

Li Ruyi snorted and fanned himself with a fan.

Li Er squatted down, and his tall figure formed a small pile beside Li Ruyi.

Li Ruyi looked at him again.

"Say it!"

Li Er scratched his head, feeling very annoyed and wanted to walk around.

Li Ruyi was speechless when she saw him stand up again.

"What's wrong with you?"

Li Ershi thought about it and made a painful sound like he was constipated.

After all, Li Ruyi is not his grandmother, so it is not good for people to make blind guesses.

He squatted back down again.

"Ruyi, I don't quite understand. Before I went to give the gift, when I met people, they laughed at me in a sarcastic way. But when they heard that I was giving a gift to Sixth Master, they all kept silent!"

“When they came back, these people were no different from before. Why?”

Li Ruyi also asked him back.

"Do you think it's because of the gift you gave me?"

Li Ershi took a deep breath and wanted to say something, but he didn't say it. He hesitated and shook his head.

"I don't think so! But I don't understand!"

Li Ruyi lowered his head to see if there was enough firewood in the stove, then he changed his hand and continued fanning.

"In fact, when you give gifts, it's not really for the sake of giving gifts, it's to show your position to the other party."

“When you ask for something from someone, you should give them a gift because you want to ask for help.”

“You should give gifts even if you don’t ask for anything from others, in order to build closer relationships.”

Li Ershi seemed to understand something.

"You mean, they don't dare to say these things anymore because of your stance?"

Li Ruyi sneered, put down the fan and talked to Li Er seriously.

"To outsiders, I, Li Ruyi, am an isolated island. I joined forces with Han Shian, another isolated island, just for the sake of survival."

"They know I'm not easy to mess with, but they also know that some sour words are not worth a fight. After all, there are so many people saying them, I can't offend half the village at once! This is called not blaming everyone!"

There was a reason why Li Ruyi beat up those people from the Han family. Touching Li Er was a provocation, and she was just fighting back.

But if you start a fight if someone says something sarcastic to you, that's bullying!

Li Er asked.

"What about now? Has the situation changed after giving the gift?"

Li Ruyi nodded.

"Yeah! It's different after I gave you the gift! Before I gave you the gift, I was an orphan tied to Han Shian."

"But after giving the gift, I became a member of the Li family who made compromises for the future of the Li family."

Li Er's brain suddenly got stuck, and in an instant, all the confusions he had were clear to him!

"You mean, if you did all this for the Li family, then the sour words they said were wrong! So they can't laugh at you anymore!"

Those people thought Li Ruyi had bet on the wrong horse, so they came to make fun of her.

But what if she was originally suppressing Li Xi?

She had gotten that quota from Han Shian. Even if she was scolded in the end, even if she had a fight with the Han family, it would seem like a lose-lose situation to outsiders.

Only by laughing at her blindness at this time can one feel happiness and superiority.

On the other hand, if Li Ruyi was doing this for the Li family, then Han Shian would lose his place, the Han family would lose face, and Li Xi would have one foot in the door of becoming a scholar...

Li Ruyi didn't suffer any loss this time; instead, she gained a great advantage!

Li Er suddenly realized.

"So this is ah!"

Li Ruyi shook her head speechlessly.

"Of course it's more than that!"

Li Er regained his composure and asked quickly.

"Any other explanation?"

A hint of mischief flashed across Li Ruyi's eyes.

"Of course! Don't forget, I said that giving gifts represents a stance, and so does receiving gifts!"

Li Laoliu accepted Li Ruyi's gift, which was a facial acknowledgement that everything Li Ruyi did benefited him.

Li Ershi didn't understand the meaning of this sentence. He wanted to ask more, but Li Ruyi had already started to chase him away!

"Don't bother me here! Think about it yourself, and come back to ask me tomorrow!"

Li Er didn't know why he had to wait until tomorrow. He was a little anxious and wanted to know now.

But no one could pry Li Ruyi open her mouth if she didn't want to say anything.

Li Ershi originally thought that he would go to his grandparents' room for a walk again tonight!

However, things took a turn for the better in the evening.

Because of a conflict, the eldest son of Patriarch Han actually beat Li Daxing!

Not only that, Patriarch Han also scolded Li Laoliu in the yard all night that day.

The harsh words and resolute tone of the scolding made many of the aunts and old women in the village who were at the forefront of gossip feel ashamed.

For a time, Chief Han became the number one curser in Sanjia Village.

Even Aunt Han Liu had to avoid his edge.

This drama of one person performing and the other taking the stage left Li Er dumbfounded. No wonder! No wonder!

No wonder Li Ruyi said that accepting gifts is also a stance.

Li Laoliu is taking all the blame for Li Ruyi and Han Shian on himself!

Moreover, Li Laoliu had to carry it on his back.

If he didn't take the blame, Li Ruyi would be forced to go to Han Shian's side. The two of them would insist that the quota was snatched away by the Li family, which would be a huge blow to Li Xi's reputation.

Li Laoliu would rather admit that he used Li Ruyi to deceive Han Shian than force Li Ruyi to bite him back.

Li Er didn't understand all these things, but for the first time he had a clear understanding of the intricate network of relationships.

It turns out that just a gift can bring about so many changes.

It turns out that he is still so far away from Ruyi!

While Li Laoliu and Chief Han were fighting fiercely, the third brother finally finished his medicinal bath and tried to break through.

It was easier for her to break through than Li Ruyi because she was young and her meridians were unobstructed.

In addition to the martial arts training and conditioning during this period, the third brother’s hidden illness, which was not serious to begin with, has now all recovered.
