Chapter 2 Negotiation


Chapter 2 Discussion

As soon as Brother Li carried Lu Zhuer to the bed and sat down, Sister Li who rushed to the door just happened to support the second sister-in-law Li who had a bulging belly.

It is said that the second sister-in-law Li is the eldest granddaughter of Wu Lizheng in Shilipo Village outside Chang'an City. Because brother Li went to the village outside Chang'an City to buy herbal medicines all year round, he came into contact with her back and forth. When he was old, he begged Li The mother invited an official matchmaker to propose marriage, and she became friends with Qin and Jin.

Brother Li has given birth to two children, and Sister-in-law Li has their third child.

Li Sanniang helped Lu Zhuer straighten the tiger-head hat on her head, and said to Second Sister-in-law Li with a smile: "Sorry, Second Sister-in-law, I still have to help look after Lu Zhu'er at such an old age. It’s not convenient. When my second sister-in-law gives birth, I will give her nephew a big red envelope.”

Sister-in-law Li helped Sister-in-law Li sit on the chair at the entrance. Sister-in-law Li gently stroked her belly and said to Li Sanniang with a smile: "That's great, I'm just waiting for the big red envelope from my little sister."
< br>After saying that, the two looked at each other and laughed.

Even my sister-in-law laughed and said that she would give me a big red envelope.

A few people were chatting together about what new merchants from the Western Regions had recently arrived in the Western Market and what kind of strange gadgets they had brought.

No one dared to mention Wang Ziheng again or what he said about taking away Lu Zhuer, for fear of arousing Li Sanniang's mood and causing something to happen if she gets excited again.

Li Sanniang didn't know whether it was because of the medicine she drank or the buffs added by the system. She felt much better, her head no longer hurt, and she had strength. She refused Mother Li's support and got up from the bed by herself, holding Lu Lu. Er walked to Li's second sister-in-law, squatted down, and told Lu Zhu'er: "Luzhu'er, follow your second aunt obediently, and grandma, your grandma, and eldest aunt will go to cook. We will have dinner soon."

Xiaoxiao Luzhu'er looked at Li Sanniang and nodded, leaning against Li Ersao obediently.

Subsequently, Brother Li went to the front hospital to talk to his father and brother Li, while mother Li and the other three went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

Even before dinner is ready, the children studying at Qinglian Academy in Four Seasons Alley have already gone home.

As the sun sets and the sky becomes darker, the Li family's medical hall begins to close its doors and board up.

The Li family has a large population, so they have two tables for meals. Little Luzhu'er is still young and eats with her mother Li Sanniang on one side, while the other children in the family have their own table.

Brother Li and sister-in-law Li have two sons. Together with the two sons of brother Li and sister-in-law Li, the four of them can share a table.

Since Emperor Wu came to the throne, in addition to paying attention to farming and mulberry trees, he has also been very attentive to the education of the people of the world.

Chang'an City attaches great importance to literacy and etiquette, and many of them send their children to academies to study and learn literacy.

The Li family sent the four young men to study in the academy. Firstly, because there is a hospital in the house and everyone has work, it is a problem that the young men are left unattended; secondly, because of the current situation Although the children of ordinary people could not be appointed as officials, Emperor Wu showed great importance to the children of poor families and did not marry the children of aristocratic families. It is impossible for young men to have a better future in the future, so reading and literacy are very important; thirdly, The Li family does not need young men to go out to earn rations for the time being. Father Li always feels that there is nothing wrong with learning more, and reading and literacy will also lay the foundation for young men to study medicine or martial arts.

Because of this, there is no servant in the family. After all, there is no spare money to support four scholars who are not engaged in childbirth.

This is why Sister-in-law Li has a big belly and is about to give birth, and she has to help take care of little Luzhu'er.

After the meal, when the leftovers on the table were about to be removed, Li Sanniang stood up and looked at Father Li and said, "Aye, I want to discuss with you all how to take Lu Zhu'er and Li Gui together." It’s a family matter.”

Father Li sat at the head, stroking his beard and nodded.

The dishes on the children's table were evacuated to the kitchen step by step with the quick hands of the four children, and those on the adult table were also quickly sorted by the sister-in-law and Li Sanniang.

Everyone moved to the main hall. Li Sanniang took out the dried wild chrysanthemums given by Mrs. Li's parents-in-law last year, brewed a pot of tea, brought it to the main hall, and poured a cup for each of the adults.

While making tea, Li Sanniang was in a trance. This is where history turned.

Logically speaking, there should not be clear tea in the Tang Dynasty at this time. It should be brewed with salt, ginger, mint, etc.

Li Dan should have ascended the throne as Emperor Ruizong of the Tang Dynasty and Empress Wu was in power.

But history took a turn here.

In Li Sanniang's memory, Emperor Wu came to the throne after he was seven years old, and there was nothing about Li Dan. The country's name was still Datang, but the reign name was changed to the first year of Tianshou.

And judging from the various administrative methods of Emperor Wu, it is highly possible that he is a time traveler.

Because she took the lead in drinking tea, and also used beds, chairs and stools, greatly reducing kneeling and sitting. Moreover, she was also a powerful person with extremely high force value. Rumors in Chang'an City said that she was the one in the palace. Several assassinations outside the palace failed.

She did not continue to kill her son. Li Dan lived well and is still active in the court.

However, in Li Sanniang's childhood memories, there was a period of time when every household in Chang'an City was afraid to close its doors and lock its doors. Li's father did not live much at home during that time, and Brother Li rarely came back.

The memory is profound because Brother Li’s second son was born at that time. She helped her mother boil water and make scissors, and Brother Li was the only one at home.

History has taken a turn, but it is a good thing for Li Sanniang now.

Since Emperor Wu ascended the throne, all the edicts he implemented were beneficial to the people and women.

Just like the edict in the first year of Changshou: Due to changes in feelings, both men and women can propose reconciliation. As long as the man agrees, a woman can bring her mother back home to raise her, and her father can visit at any time. , and pay a certain amount of money to the Heli woman for the hard work of raising the girl.

Why did Li Sanniang know this edict clearly?

Because that year Princess Cheng'an came to the palace crying and complained that she was heartbroken because her concubine was favored by her concubine, and she couldn't do anything with her grief.

Princess Cheng'an wants to reconcile with her consort and return to the princess mansion to live in peace. At the same time, she also wants to bring back her only daughter, Princess Huaming. However, the consort and his family refused to allow it, saying that although Princess Huaming was a daughter, she was also the blood of her family and could not be taken away.

After hearing this, Emperor Wu issued this edict with a stroke of his pen. Princess Hua Ming was able to return to the Princess Mansion with his mother, Princess Chengan, and Li.

This matter was quite a big deal at that time, and it was spread in the streets and alleys of Chang'an City for more than a month. The barbarians from the east and west cities were talking about it.

Therefore, this edict is known to everyone.

Li's father, who was sitting in the first place, said to Li Sanniang while stirring the tea cup: "Sanniang, what do you think? Tell everyone, don't be afraid, your eldest brother is Jinwuwei, your second brother He Aye is not that fragile glass bottle, and our Li family is not that casual and good-natured family that lets others bully us. Just tell us what you think."

Li Sanniang picked it up and returned it. He took a sip of the hot tea cup, put down the tea cup, picked up Lu Zhuer and sat in his arms, looking at Father Li and Mother Li sitting at the top, Brother Li and the others sitting at the bottom, and the people standing behind them. The children suppressed their inner thoughts and said categorically: "I must reconcile with Li. After I discovered the scandal between Wang Ziheng and his cousin, I can no longer tolerate their family. Heli, on the other hand, Simple, I remember when Aye taught me how to read when I was young, he told me about the "Law of Household Marriage" in "Tang Law". As long as Wang Ziheng agrees, he can get divorced and get back his dowry."
< br>Speaking of this, Li Sanniang hugged Lu Zhuer.

“But the troublesome thing is not the divorce between Er and Wang Ziheng, but the fact that Er wants to take Lu Zhuer home to raise him. No matter how Wang Ziheng doesn’t care about Lu Zhuer, this little lady, Lu Zhuer will always be part of the Wang family. Bloodline, with the attitude of the eldest brother of the Wang family and Wang Ziheng, it will be even more difficult for me to bring Lu Zhuer home.”

"My little sister's concerns are very reasonable. I, the Jinwu Guard, may still have some weight. If I take the opportunity to suppress the Wang family, it's not impossible."

"Brother is right. The Wang family mainly works in drug stores. Business, we can use it to make some articles about the new shop opened by Mr. Wang in the West Market."

After listening to the words of the two brothers, Li Sanniang felt very emotional that there could be such a thing in this ancient feudal society. Li Sanniang is also lucky to have an elder brother who loves his married sister.

You can think about it this way, but you can't do it.

“What the eldest brother and the second brother said is a solution, but the younger sister feels that this cannot be done. After all, Luzhu’er is a bloodline of the Wang family. If we really threaten the Wang family, we may injure the enemy a thousand times and ourselves eight hundred. .

The younger sister thought about it. In the past, the mother-in-law of the Wang family was not very satisfied with the fact that I had only been married to Lu Zhuer for three years. The mother-in-law of the Wang family must have been eager for me and the prince to get divorced.

There was something about Princess Chengan and Li taking away Princess Huaming. My little sister thought, if our family is tougher, please ask Fang Zheng to make peace. I think it would be a good idea to bring Lu Zhuer home with her. feasible.

The most important thing is that if Wang Ziheng can get Wang Ziheng to sign a contract not to marry Lu Zhuer at will, the younger sister is willing to give up more dowry to the Ministry of Household Affairs as a deposit, just to bring Lu Zhuer home. Come. ”

The children standing behind the adults listened to their aunt’s words and suddenly felt that the Wang family was not a good person for bullying their little aunt like this.

Little Luzhu’er nestled in Li Sanniang’s arms Here, I don’t even know that everyone is discussing her important matter.

"If it can be done, I will go to the government to establish a female household. I am willing to pay the deposit set by the government!" Li Sanniang said lightly, holding Luzhu'er and watching her play with the streamers on her skirt.

After hearing what Li Sanniang said, the other three women present looked at her with big surprised eyes. Although the empress is now in power, it is not easy to set up a female household. The deposit alone is not an ordinary girl. What you can afford.

“It’s too early for Sanniang to say this. Aye Ming’er went to Fang Zheng’s house to ask about these things. I also learned about you and Li’s direct descendants. Although the Li family only has "I have two, your uncle still has some respect in Chang'an." After saying this, Father Li took another sip of chrysanthemum tea and reassured him.

Father Li said this, but he was thinking in his heart, if Sanniang doesn’t want to get married again in the future, I can afford to support her at home, plus Lu Zhuer. At worst, I can leave her more money before I die. .

Thinking of this, I stroked my beard and shook my head at Mother Li, meaning don’t be anxious, I know it well.

"Don't worry, little sister. The eldest brother and your second brother will go to Wang's house tomorrow to check on the news. You and Lu Zhu'er are at home well. Nothing matters to your health." As the eldest brother said, he looked at Father Li, and Father Li said I told everyone to leave and take a rest. We will talk about tomorrow's matters tomorrow.

Li Sanniang took Lu Zhuer back to the house where she was married. She brushed Lu Zhuer’s teeth with green salt, wiped her face, washed her feet and sent her to the bed. She hugged the little person and lay there with her eyes closed. On the bed, my mind was reviewing what happened today.

In Li Sanniang's memory, Chang'an City has always been bustling, especially the East and West Markets.

But we can really confirm again that this Chang'an is not the Chang'an in history, and is the Tang Dynasty the Tang Dynasty in history? It should be the Tang Dynasty Chang'an that has traveled through history. It can be said that it is the person who has been traveled through. Senior, please change and live in a parallel world.

Thinking of this, Li Sanniang opened her eyes, looked at the laces of the bed curtain, and thought about her golden finger system. She was immersed in consciousness, looked at the virtual screen, clicked everything she could, and then used After consciously shouting "system" several times, there was still no abnormality. Only then did he settle down and confirm that this system was not like the artificial intelligence with humanity written in the novel.

Immersed in Li Sanniang's memory again, I was very surprised to find that Li Sanniang was actually a doctor who diagnosed her pulse and prescribed medicine!

The two sons and one daughter of the Li family, including Li’s mother’s enlightenment in reading and calligraphy, were brought by Li’s father. Moreover, because Li Sanniang is an old woman, she followed Li’s father in the front hall for consultation and medical treatment since she was a child. Having grown up with the medicinal properties of medicinal materials, he still has some talents, and he can be regarded as having six or seven points of true inheritance from Li's father. If it weren't for the sage's instruction, the girl must be married at the age of fifteen, and Li's father is really reluctant to marry this precious child out.

Li Sanniang thought about the matter of diagnosing the pulse and prescribing medicine, and she couldn’t be too happy!

She originally knew Chinese medicine, and with her own knowledge and experience in Western medicine, wouldn’t it be that the combination of Chinese and Western medicine is so powerful!

In the future, in Datang, I will raise Zaizai, continue to practice medicine, and shine!

The Li family has two sons and one daughter.

Li’s mother and her ex-husband Sun Datou gave birth to brother Li.

Li's mother married Li's father for the second time and gave birth to a son and a daughter. One son is Li Erxiong and the other daughter is Li Sanniang.

——

Brother Li married Jiang Meihua and had two sons, Li Dalang and Li Erlang.

The second brother Li married Wu Lan and had three sons, Li Sanlang, Li Silang and Xiaowulang (born in Chapter 9)

Li Sanniang married Wang Ziheng, the second son of the Wang family, and had a daughter named Luzhuer and Wang Wanlu. .

After Li Sanniang made peace with Prince Heng (Chapter 3), she brought her daughter home.
