Chapter 24: Li’s mother: With a wife, he will calm down

On the starry night and the cold wind, Li Yi wrapped his coat out of Gan Ci's family.

The tears on his face had been wiped away, and his mind was extremely clear at this time.

He looked up at the sky and looked at the moon that was always the same as before and now, Li Yi clenched his fists.

"Since God has allowed me to come to this world and let me live for a lifetime, how can I be mediocre and do nothing?"

"I not only want to give myself an explanation, but also an explanation!"

"One day, I will make stinky tofu a household food, and I will open a chain of stinky tofu stores throughout the Song Dynasty!"

"I want to complete the regrets that I didn't solve in my previous life here!"

After taking a few deep breaths of cool breeze, Li Yi's eyes were like a torch. He wanted to quickly solve this troublesome case, break out of this complicated intrigue, and then - open the first stinky tofu shop!

...

Li Yi's home lives in Nancheng and Gan Ci's home lives in Xicheng. Li Yi also hurried all the way and went back in half an hour.

It was already the second day of the day, and it was the most beautiful time for the ancients to sleep. However, when Li Yi arrived home, he saw a faint oil lamp in the room.

Li Yi's footsteps shocked the people in the house, and a faint and hoarse voice came from the house: "It's Yi'er, is Yi'er back?"

Li Yi was stunned, and then he remembered that he was not alone in his life, and he had an old mother at home!

Li Yi hurried forward and stopped outside the house: "Mother, it's so late, why haven't you slept yet?"

The door of the house creaked and opened hard, and an old woman with white hair and wrinkles looked at Li Yi with worry: "Yi'er, why did you come back so late today? Cough, cough, cough."

After saying a few words, the old woman started to cough violently.

Seeing that the old woman was dressed in thin clothes, Li Yi was afraid that she would be invaded by the cool breeze, he hurriedly helped her into the house: "Mother, I was asked by the county magistrate of this county, and I went to do things for him."

Confusion flashed in the old woman's turbid eyes, and she said worriedly: "County lieutenant? Son, have you done something bad and been caught?"

When the county lieutenant was mentioned, the old woman subconsciously thought that Li Yi was caught by the county lieutenant because he did something bad.

Li Yi was amused and crying: "Mother, why do you say this? Don't you believe in your own son?"

The old woman paused and sighed: "I just know who you are..."

Li Yi: “…”

Although my predecessor did not read books, read newspapers, and ate snacks and slept, I would not commit crimes and become a bad person...

The old woman suddenly held Li Yi's hand and said in a deep voice: "Son, you have changed a lot this month! You used to be lazy and lazy, and you didn't go out of the door and didn't step out, just like a big girl.

Mother knows that a kind mother defeats her son, and you will be so inseparable from her indulgence. But... Your father died early, and Mother is a vulgar woman, unlike Meng's mother who teaches her children to become a dragon. Mother only hopes that you can live a peaceful and ordinary life. If you can live alone, Mother will be satisfied.

But... Sorry, why have you completely changed recently! You have made some stinky, stinky tofu, and even broken the "headless case". You even have contact with the county magistrate now!

Mom doesn’t understand what big thing you are doing. Mom just wants you to go back a month ago and be a lazy person. Son, can you stop involving those big guys? Mom, I really don’t want to lose you..."

Li Yi smiled slightly and had a long argument about this: "My mother said this too exaggeratedly. She just realized that she had wasted too many years before that she wanted to make a career.

In that case, the superior can support his mother and the subordinate can raise his wife. Why should the mother worry about it? Will the mother be unhappy if her son has ambition?"

The old woman coughed a few times, her face full of worry: "Son, I don't need you to do anything big, nor do I need you to shine my ancestors. Isn't it good to be ordinary?"

Li Yi shook his head. Since Li Yi came to this world, he was destined to be unable to become mediocre again.

When the old woman saw Li Yi eating the weight, she gritted her teeth, walked to the side of the bed tremblingly, and took out an old wooden box under the bed board.

The old woman looked towards Li Yi and slowly opened the wooden box. The wooden box instantly flashed with treasure light, and inside it was a string of exquisite Buddha treasure bracelets!

The so-called Buddha treasure refers to the seven treasures of gold, silver, glass, coral, conch, red beads, and agate. The Buddha treasure bracelet decorated with this is even more priceless.

"Mom, this is..." Li Yi didn't believe his eyes a little. He rubbed it several times before confirming that he was not wrong.

It's really a string of dazzling baby bracelets!

Even Li Yi, who doesn't know how to appraise treasures, knows that this bracelet must have extremely high value.

How could my cheap mother have such a treasure?

The old woman whispered: "Child... You were ignorant when you were young, and you always asked your mother about your father, but you never told the story about your father... Now that you are old, it's time for you to tell you.

In fact, your father is a great merchant from the Tang Dynasty in the south. He is kind and generous on weekdays and always calls him a good person in the village. But even if his family is as wealthy as him, what can he do? He offended the powerful and overnight, causing the whole family to be executed. Fortunately, he has been in business for many years and has some unknown connections, so he luckily let you and me survive.

Because I fled in a hurry and my mother did not bring a lot of money, she would live so poor when she fled to Pingji County, which had no relatives... In order to raise you over the years, my mother had basically killed all the money she could do. Only this bracelet is the thing that your father Yu Niang loves. My mother is going to wait until she dies and entrust her to you to live a good life...

You can use the seven treasures in this bracelet separately, and each treasure can make you live a prosperous life.

Therefore, Mom doesn’t want you to have great ambitions, don’t want you to repeat your father’s old mistakes, and don’t want you to have any connection with any powerful people! Mom just hopes that you can be a rich and idle person.

Is it okay to promise my mother? If you promise my mother, I will hand over this bracelet to you immediately. If you want to exchange some money for a good life, or find a good family to marry an ungod wife, I will let you go."

The old mother's deep eyes and the glow emitted by the treasure made Li Yi shaken.

Who doesn’t want to be born as a rich second generation? Who doesn’t want to rely on the care of his father? Who doesn’t want to make money by lying down?

But……

I have just made up my mind, how can I go back on my word?

Those who deceive others are villains; those who deceive themselves are cowards!

Even Zheng Bing knew that "everyone has died since ancient times, and no one can stand without trust"! Is he not as good as Zheng Bing's husband?

Li Yi was neither willing to be a villain who deceived his mother nor a coward who deceived him. He closed the wooden box and pushed it back to his mother, and said solemnly: "Mother, you have saved your hard work. It's just...

After all, I am no longer young and I am unwilling to be an ordinary person! This treasure is the kindness between you and your father, and I must not do unfilial things to kill it. I hope you can keep it away!

Once a son is born as a man, he vows to be a true man. Not to mention the wife and children, he also needs to use his own hands to make his wife and children live in food and clothing."

After saying these words, Li Yi's mood suddenly became clear. He helped his mother back to the bed and said warmly: "It's so late, so my mother should go to bed early. Your health is not good, so you should rest more."

After saying that, before Li's mother could talk, Li Yi blew out the oil lamp and left the room.

In the darkness, Li's mother sat quietly for a long time, and before she knew it, her wrinkled face silently shed two lines of clear tears. She was both relieved and sad: Master, Yi'er is very arrogant and deserves to be your child...

Since he has such ambition, the slave should not have stopped him.

But... the slave had a fight with him and his mother and son, and promised the lady that he would be an idle person. How could he sit down and see him die?

I can't persuade him, but I can't help but persuade him... Since he is already an adult, it's better to choose a good family for him to start a family, maybe...

After having a wife, he will calm down...

...

After sleeping all night, Li Yi did not disturb his mother, so he got up and went to the yamen.

But he didn't know that his cheap mother was already planning to find a wife for him.

In the yamen, Li Yi saw Chu Ping with two big dark circles on his eyes and couldn't help but become curious: "Are you... possessed by an iron-eating beast?"

Chu Ping looked haggard: "No...no...it's just staying up late to fight with the fairy, losing some essence."

turn out to be……

Li Yi looked at it, laughing and crying: "Good you Chu Ping, I'm investigating the case outside with suffering and tiring, but you're just addicted to the gentle countryside."

Chu Ping smiled embarrassedly: "Don't worry, your goodness is indispensable. As long as you solve this case, the store I promised to offer you will be presented immediately!"

After saying that, Chu Ping shamelessly posted it: "Good brother, how about it? Is the case progressing? The county magistrate only gave us three days."

It turns out you know that there are only three days?

Li Yi said angrily: "There has been a lot of progress, but there is one thing that is quite serious. I want to see the county magistrate report in person."

"Okay, I'll take you to ask the county magistrate."

After entering the inner yamen, Li Yi advised Zhao County Wei to retreat and submit the silk with the words "It is all caused by negligence" and told him about his discoveries.

However, Li Yi did not disclose the relationship between Feng'er and Cheng Gu.

First, he didn't know the details of Feng Yan'er and didn't want the county magistrate to alert the enemy; second, this matter may have nothing to do with Feng Yan'er, because Cheng Gu may be a reseller under Feng Yan'er on the surface, but in fact it is a meticulous work of a certain force, and Feng Yan'er is not aware of this.

Therefore, if Feng Ni suffers unrestrained disasters because of his own false statements, Li Yi will be in a state of conscience.

After hearing Li Yi's narration, Zhao County Wei changed his expression: "If this person is really a detailed work by the enemy country, it will be a disaster!"

Li Yi smiled and said, "Why did the county magistrate say this? The county magistrate who is clear about the world has cleverly found out the enemy's detailed work. How could this be a disaster? The court will praise it!"

Zhao County Wei thought about it, so he held Li Yi's hand with joy and said, "Brother Li is really a blessing general! As soon as you come, you helped me find Diao Nan who was doing something wrong, and now I have made great contributions to me! Tell me, how do you want me to repay me?"

When Li Yi mentioned Diao Nan, he couldn't help but feel angry. He had the idea of ​​asking Zhao County Wei to help him get rid of him. But after a while, Li Yi gave up this idea.

Because Zhao County Wei’s favor is difficult to obtain, he cannot be easily wasted on Diao Nan’s common man. He has a way to deal with a clown like Diao Nan.

Li Yi pondered for a moment and decided to let Zhao County Wei owe him this favor first, so he said, "My County Wei, this matter is not my only contribution. If Miss Gan Ci and Gan had excellent coroner skills and could find this silk from the dead body, we might not have made a contribution."
