Wait for me, and watch me fight my way back to the reincarnation path
Chapter 148 Zhao Yuanzhe
Xiaoyan thought it was someone else's family affair, so she bowed and said please do as you please.
After they left, Qin Qiong narrowed his eyes and said to Xiao Yan: "I bet you, there must be something wrong, and it must be a big thing..."
"how do you know?"
"Because Mr. Zhao from the refugee area asked the housekeeper to arrange for him to live in Xuanzhen Temple."
"..."
This Mr. Zhao was accommodated in the guest room of the temple, and the housekeeper's kneeling to Mr. Zhao yesterday made Qin Qiong very curious.
Logically, there were only children in the refugee area, and apart from the child in the arms, only girls would be placed in the temple first. How come Mr. Zhao was also arranged to come in?
The only ones who could make such an arrangement were Feng Qi and the chief steward of the Li Mansion.
Plus, she actually saw the old housekeeper kneeling down to the scholar and crying...
So, she was curious.
The scholar surnamed Zhao said that he had grievances to redress, so he couldn't sell himself...
Although Mr. Zhao looked sick.
But his posture was straight, his manners were measured, although there was a hint of decadence in his speech.
But it can be seen that he came from an extraordinary family and did not come from a small family.
Moreover, Qin Qiong could deeply feel the hostility from this man.
Qin Qiong really wanted to know what kind of injustice could have happened at the foot of the emperor's imperial city that made the scholar so angry.
"Let's go and listen"
Qin Qiong said something to Xiaoyan and then pulled Xiaoyan over there.
Xiaoyan didn't pay attention when she pulled her and actually followed her for several steps.
I was almost at the door of someone's room when I realized they were trying to eavesdrop. How outrageous!
"Hey! What are you talking about? You can't do this."
"Really? Let's see."
Qin Qiong ignored him and walked to the window of the room.
Be prepared to listen "accidentally".
Xiaoyan's behavior towards her is really...
Before Xiaoyan could express her opinion, the door opened again.
The steward came out again.
As soon as he saw the young master, he hurried forward and bowed, saying: "Young master, my wife and the young general have something to do. Please come in for a moment. Please move aside, young master."
Xiaoyan was stunned for a moment and felt a little guilty.
However, he still glared at Qin Qiong who was standing by the window, smiled at the manager, said hello, and followed him into the house.
Mrs. Li was sitting at the main seat in the room, Mr. Zhao and General Li were sitting opposite each other at the bottom, with Mr. Zhao sitting on the left.
When he saw the young master coming, General Xiaoli immediately stood up and gave up his seat.
Xiaoyan and Madam Li asked how she was.
The steward personally served tea to the young master and then stepped back.
The room fell silent for a moment.
In fact, as soon as Xiaoyan entered the room, she could tell that Mrs. Li, who was usually amiable, now had a very unhappy expression on her face.
So, as soon as he sat down, he glanced at General Xiaoli, trying to get some answers from him.
But General Xiaoli just shook his head at him, obviously he knew nothing either.
Wait a moment, Mrs. Li will speak.
"Young Master, I asked you to come here today because I have something to ask. I really have no choice but to ask you..."
Mrs. Li seemed a little embarrassed to speak.
"Madam, Brother Li and I are good friends. If there is anything you need me to do, please just ask. As long as I can do it, I will do my best."
Xiaoyan was quick to express her opinion.
"Thank you, young master!"
Mrs. Li stood up and bowed to Xiaoyan personally.
Xiaoyan, Mr. Zhao, and even General Xiaoli were so scared that they stood up and returned the greeting.
"Young Master, if my general was here today, he would have come forward to deal with this matter."
"But now he's not here, Qinghui is still young, and I... am a woman, so I can't do anything. But this matter is really..."
As Mrs. Li spoke, she began to cry.
Xiaoyan and General Xiaoli were both frightened. They had already sat down, but they stood up again.
"You all sit down..."
Mrs. Li waved her hand and asked them to sit down.
After calming himself down, he continued, "You have all met this Mr. Zhao. His name is Zhao Yuanzhe, Qinghui. Actually, he is the brother of your cousin's husband..."
General Xiaoli and Xiaoyan looked at each other...
This dear, it’s so far away.
"Your cousin... you haven't seen her. I only saw her a few times when she got married. She... she is the daughter of the Li family. She... she did not bring disgrace to the Li family..."
At this point, Madam Li could no longer control herself and burst into tears.
"Mother……"
General Xiaoli was confused.
"…Madam, please accept my condolences."
Mr. Zhao stood up and bowed.
"I... I'm fine. I just thought of that child... I..."
Mrs. Li was already crying uncontrollably.
"lady……"
The manager over there hurried over and advised: "You'd better go back and have some rest. You can't hurt yourself by crying. Everyone here is worth your money."
"Yes, ma'am, please accept my condolences. If my sister-in-law knew about this, she would blame Yao Qinghui."
Mr. Zhao also advised.
"I'm fine..."
Madam Li waved her hands and said to the housekeeper, "Afu, please tell them. I really am..."
"Yes, ma'am," the steward bowed.
Xiaoyan and General Xiaoli looked at each other and felt a little uneasy.
Madam Li is not the kind of woman who would cry and whine over trivial matters and has no opinion of her own.
If it wasn't a big deal, Madam Li would never cry in front of an outsider.
Moreover, Mr. Zhao was still in the room.
Next, Madam Li was helped out by a maid.
After Xiaoyan and the others waited for the lady to leave, everyone sat down again.
The manager slowly explained the whole story...
Li Shuai was a newcomer. When he was just a general, one time the rations of the garrison under his command were burned, which was a serious offense in the army.
At that time, General Li was one of the generals in that army. The commander wanted to suppress the matter, so he ordered all the generals in his army to find ways to raise food.
General Li was only a general of the fourth rank at that time.
His family was not wealthy, and he could not do anything to steal the people's surplus grain. When he was in trouble, a relative of the Li family, Zhao Yuanzhe's father, came forward to help General Li.
The military rations allocated to him were fully stocked.
For this matter, General Li went to the Zhao family twice to express his gratitude.
Mrs. Li took extra care of the distant relative who was going to marry into the Zhao family.
When the girl got married, Mrs. Li went to add makeup to her clothes personally.
The two families have a very good relationship.
Afterwards, General Li went to the border to make achievements, and Mrs. Li brought her family to Beijing.
The Zhao family also left their hometown for some reason.
Madam Li kept herself clean and never made friends with anyone casually.
The Zhao family is also a family of scholars, and they have never taken the initiative to come to the door to claim kinship and seek connections just because Li Shuai is now a high-ranking family.
Gradually, the two families had little contact with each other.
