Chapter 482: Every Family Has Its Own Troubles

r.The portly woman was still chasing after him, but Sun Chengjian stepped in and stopped her, feigning rebuke. "What are you doing We have distinguished guests here!"Sun Siyuan was truly embarrassed,...Li La Er quickly waved his hand, lowering his voice and constantly reminding him, "When you go back and see Fu Niu'er, don't mention this at all. The little girl has grown up and knows how to be shy. She stayed in the room for several days before she came out, making my mother almost put those mischievous boys in the jar of pickles!"

Everyone nodded in agreement. Old Li said, "When I get back, I'll see if any nearby villages have cats or dogs that have just had puppies. I'll find two for Funiu to keep her company. She'll have a playmate then."

The lord thought for a moment and then added, "I've been idle these past few days. I might as well take the Vanguard Army to Fengping Mountain for training. We can also look around to see if there are any young beasts up there."

This isn't a random training session, this is clearly going up the mountain to look for little cubs! They just make it seem like they're training by chance.

Everyone pretended not to notice, the Duke had always spoiled his child like this.

Only then did Li Lao Er get to the point, speaking about Mr. Wen's plea for help. Everyone who heard it sighed in dismay.

Every family has its own difficult scriptures…

It was already known that the Wen family didn't value or care much for Mr. Wen, and now this hidden danger has fully erupted.

Li Yong also came out after a falling out with his family. He felt deeply for Mr. Wen's current situation and sighed, "Mr. Wen is truly heartbroken, otherwise he wouldn't resort to such a method... What if something goes wrong, all his years of hard work will be in vain."

Li Lao Si nodded, "Life in a big wealthy family is truly chaotic, it's better to be comfortable and at ease like us common folk."

The Lord laughed when he heard this.

Although the Li family is now a newly established noble family in Tianwu, they are not considered a small or humble family. However, the members of the Li family seem to have made no changes at all.

Besides showing off his title to intimidate people when he was looked down upon, he lived a normal life and did whatever he pleased without any arrogance or restlessness.

This much alone, let alone the fact that he was following with pride, even if the emperor occasionally mentioned it, it was a source of astonishment and praise.

"Alright, I'll take care of this. I'll head back to Xindu tomorrow. I'm leaving the camp in your hands." The Marquis said to Li Laosi and Li Yong, both quickly nodding in agreement.

Jiang Cheng soon brought over lunch.

Pork ribs stewed with oil beans, spinach and meatball soup, minced pork eggplant sauce, cold cucumber salad, plus a large pot of rice.

Li Lao'er had been walking for nearly a whole night and morning, and was famished. His stomach growled loudly.

Li Lao Si, Li Yong, and Jiang Cheng trained hard every day and all became big eaters.

He was the lord. He ate with them, and they had two extra meals.

Everyone was too busy eating to even speak, they just kept their heads down and ate until every dish was clean.

Li Laoer missed home and chatted for a while. He heard that Zheng Feng and Zheng He had also finished their meal, so he started to head back.

There wasn't much good stuff in the barracks to bring back for him, but fortunately it was near the Jinsha River and there were plenty of fish this season.

Jiang Cheng led people to take out the fishing nets buried in Jiang Chazi, catching hundreds of fish, big and small, which filled four large wooden barrels.

Then, Li Lao'er, this Zhongshan uncle, sat in the middle of the tub and laughed as he set off on his journey home...

Under the cover of night, Suijin Beach was no longer bustling like by day. It resembled a tranquil maiden, gentle and serene.

Uncle Zhao led several villagers to patrol inside and outside the village, paying close attention to the melon field.

Although the village head had long since moved into a hut in the middle of the melon field, keeping a close eye on this treasure trove.

But they were still not at ease, even if they walked several more times to scare the annoying little beasts, so that they wouldn't bite through the pumpkin vines.

Remember, one less watermelon means one less silver coin during late summer!

Just at that moment, Li La Er came back in a carriage.

Everyone followed back to the village, helping to carry the bucket down.

It is said that the big and small fish in the wooden barrel were caught by the Marquis and his men, especially brought back for everyone to taste something new. Everyone was happy.

But it was getting late, so they whispered a few jokes to each other and then dispersed.

Early the next day, Jiayin got up, washed up and had breakfast. Seeing fish congee on the dining table, she realized that her second uncle was back.

Unfortunately, she overslept. By this time, her second uncle had already gone into town.

She had a lot of curiosity bottled up inside her and still wanted to ask Mr. Wen about the arrangements on his side.

But seeing her grandmother, aunt, and mother sitting there eating and laughing, she figured everything must be going smoothly, so she didn't worry about it anymore.

While peeling eggs for her granddaughter, Li Laotai instructed, "After dinner, you must pick up your unfinished homework. This morning, follow He MaMa to learn etiquette, and this afternoon, go find Hui Niang. You must finish sewing that half-finished pouch tomorrow."

Jia Yin buried her head and drank the porridge, still trying to play dumb, but her mother hit her on the head. She could only raise her head and smile, agreeing, "Alright, Fu Niu'er listens to grandma."

"Bootlicker!" Tao Hongying cursed under her breath, but she carefully picked out some fish fillets and placed them in her daughter's bowl. "Eat more fish, darling. People say children who eat more fish are smarter."

Jia Yin couldn't help but tease, "Mom, does eating chicken feet make one skillful Can you stew two pots for me My pouch is too difficult to mend!"

Li Lao Tai and Mrs. Cui almost sprayed the porridge from their mouths, they were laughing so hard.

Tao Hongying was so angry with her daughter that her head was about to smoke, "I think you're not clumsy, but you've eaten too much pork and become lazy like a pig!"

Everyone couldn't help but laugh!

Whether she wanted to or not, after the meal, Jia Yin began her elementary school life.

Grandma He is doing well. After going through the little master's period of lethargy and rapid growth, she has found a teaching style that suits the little master – Buddhism.

The specific mode is that an elderly person and a young child sit opposite each other, drinking juice and having some snacks. When tired, they go for a stroll in the courtyard or outside, chatting idly, telling stories. When they encounter something that interests the little master, she talks more about it and teaches them proper etiquette by the way.

Over the past two days, one felt no pressure teaching and the other felt relaxed learning, which was quite effective.

But things were different with Huiniang. The foundation of embroidery lay in the gradual honing and refinement over time.

Jia Yin, this lazybones, fishes for three days and rests for two. Not only has he forgotten all the techniques he learned before, but his needlework is also rusty.

Her fingers were poked and bleeding like a radish head because the pouch wasn't finished.

Coincidentally, the Marquis rode back, and Jia Yin ran out holding a carrot.

The Lord Hou gently lifted his precious daughter in his arms. Seeing Granny Li come out, he said, "Auntie, Funiu'er is destined to have a life of wealth and splendor. She will have countless servants at her beck and call. If she wants new clothes, someone will sew them for her. There's no need for her to learn these things, right"

Li Lao Tai was amused and touched, leading them into the house before saying, "Master Hou, everyone in the family knows you love this girl dearly, but Fu Niang is a young woman. She can't possibly not know even the basics of sewing. In the future, when she marries, just knowing how to appear capable will be important! Even on her wedding dress, she needs to embroider a few stitches."

Besides, no one can see their head forever. What if this girl has a hard time in the future She can do laundry, cook and sew clothes, at least she can keep herself clean, right

This is indeed good advice from an elder, and even though the Lord Hou feels sorry for him, he cannot oppose it.

Good sound is also heartwarming, so I quickly ran to hug grandma. I won't dare to be naughty anymore and plan to study hard from now on...ood source, Tiānwǔ would never again face a shortage of food, nor would anyone starve!This is a great service to the country, a life-saving grace!How fortunate the Li family was, to have obtained such...
