MTL - After Dressing Up As a Stepmother, I Transformed the Whole Family Into Working In the Fields-Chapter 545 All happy roads are blocked

Chapter 545: All happy roads are blocked

Liu Ji finally got the news and knew that the famous local wealthy businessmen were going to give him a banquet. He hurriedly finished his homework in Lianyuan, fooled the teacher into a happy mood, and rushed home excitedly.

As soon as he entered the door, he found Qin Yao who was exercising in the backyard. He stood in front of her and asked excitedly: "Madam, where is my invitation? Please show it to me quickly!"

 For the first time in his life, he felt so popular!

Qin Yao put down the big knife. Looking at his happy look, there was only a dog's tail wagging wildly behind his butt.

"It's on the table in my room." Before she could even say the next sentence, "I want to go get it myself," the person in front of her had disappeared.

Qin Yao's mouth twitched slightly, she picked up the sword and was about to continue the unfinished exercise, when she heard someone's wild laughter coming from the main room. While laughing, she shouted excitedly: "There is actually a Fan family!"

　　Fan family?

Qin Yao vaguely remembered a vague figure, as if Liu Ji had a close relationship with a scholar named Fan when he was in the county academy.

 Those who can play together with the former Liu Ji are not a good thing after all. Qin Yao directly crossed out the Fan family from the reply list.

Liu Ji didn't know this. He only knew that Mr. Fan liked to gamble. If the two families were on good terms, he could spend other people's money to see all kinds of life in the gambling shop.

He deliberately put aside the note sent by the Fan family and looked for pen to write a reply. When he looked up, he found that it was still in the evil woman's room.

"Madam, you are busy with everything and don't have time to deal with these posts, so why don't you take your husband to the study and go back together?" Liu Ji leaned out of the window sill and flattered Qin Yao in the backyard for instructions.

Qin Yao’s lips curved slightly, “Okay, you can write your reply first.”

Liu Ji didn't notice the word "Xian". He only heard her say "yes" and was overjoyed. He picked up the twelve invitations and headed to the study.

He thought about the text of many replies, but felt that it was not enough, so he called Qi Xianguan and Gong Liangliao to his home for dinner, and asked them for advice.

Qi Xianguan had never seen anything like this before. He looked at his overjoyed junior brother in surprise, "Aren't you deceiving the imperial court?"

Liu Ji is not yet an official, but there are so many profiteers trying to take advantage of the imperial court. If he becomes an official in the future, how can he repay it?

Liu Ji chuckled and said, "Senior brother, I'm over-worrying. How can this be called deception about a family's affairs? Besides, look at this post, which sentence is wrong? They sincerely gave me the land, house and shop, if I refuse , then didn’t I let down others’ good intentions?”

Qi Xianguan slapped away Liu Ji's hand that was about to fall on his head, and only looked at Gong Liangxiao, "Sir!"

Gong Liangxiao ate the food calmly, as if he was used to it, and said slowly in a calm tone:

“Jingxuan, as long as it complies with the rules, it’s fine.”

Qi Xianguan didn’t expect that his husband would actually say that, so he asked hurriedly: “That’s right, right?”

He was very worried that Liu Ji, his junior brother, was not a person of good character. If his husband wanted to indulge and protect him in this way, wouldn't it be harming him?

Gong Liangxiao smiled enigmatically, "Right and wrong are determined by people. The only difference lies in which side the person who makes the rules prefers."

"Jingxuan." Gong Liangxiao glanced at Qi Xianguan lovingly, "If you think it's wrong, it's just because you think that if you can't be the one to make the rules, then you can only abide by the rules, do you understand?"

“Of course, being a teacher doesn’t mean that you have to become a person who only knows how to follow the rules and forget your true nature. I just hope that you can be like your junior brother, blame others more, condemn yourself less, and be more happy.”

  Sometimes, it’s easier to just go with the flow.

Of course, Gong Liangxiao would not say this to someone like Liu Ji. It was precisely because he knew what the young man in front of him was holding on to in his heart that he hoped that he could be more indulgent.

"Sir?" Qi Xianguan frowned even deeper. Looking at the old man with rare kind eyes, a trace of worry suddenly rose in his eyes.

“Why do you say this so well that it seems like you are telling me to leave me?”

Gong Liangxiao was startled, and then burst into laughter.

 Liu Ji and Qi Xianguan looked at each other. For the first time, the two brothers realized that something was wrong with their teacher. After dinner, on the way back to Lianyuan with Gong Liangxiao, Liu Ji tentatively asked the old man if he wanted to go to the county to find a doctor.

Qi Xianguan also echoed: "Sir, you haven't had a doctor come for consultation for a long time."

Unexpectedly, as soon as the two of them finished speaking, Gong Liangliao's entire face darkened.

 The two brothers immediately shut up and had to secretly look at the old man's body to see if there was anything wrong.

 Looking all the way to Lian Yuan, I didn’t see anything strange.

Liu Jiben wanted to help the teacher take a bath, so he took off his clothes and took a good look at the wounds on his severed limbs to see if there were ulcers. As a result, the old man gave him a big slap on the back of his head.

Hunting his head and escaping out of the door, Liu Jidu could still hear a roar coming from behind him: "I'm in very good health!"

 Liu Ji patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

This Zhongqi is more abundant than his. It seems that the teacher's health is indeed fine.

After strolling home, Liu Ji saw that the lights in Qin Yao's room were still on. Liu Ji handed over the twelve replies that his teacher and senior brother had polished, and asked Qin Yao to find Song Yu to send the replies.

"Got it." Qin Yao was looking at the investigation 'reports' on each house that Awang had brought back. Without raising her head, she waved her hand to Liu Ji to close the door.

 Liu Ji was delighted, "That's hard work, ma'am."

　　Close the door of the main room, and as if there are springs under your feet, I jump back to the study, looking forward to the wonderful scene of attending twelve banquets in a row, and falling into a beautiful dream.

Just never expected that Qin Yao would reply to three posts.

"Why?"

Liu Ji, who knew the truth, held back the tears that were about to fall, rushed to Qin Yao angrily, put his hands on his hips and asked:

“Obviously I only need to go back to three families, why do you want me to write all the replies to twelve families?!”

Qin Yao raised her eyebrows and asked in surprise: "Aren't you angry because you can't go to twelve banquets in a row?"

 Of course it is! Liu Ji replied in his heart.

However, if he said this, he would not be far away from being beaten.

After all, his little thoughts couldn't be exposed, so he could only question her about his twelve replies.

Qin Yao glanced at him playfully and called Awang and Yin Le over, "Tell him why he only replied to three invitations."

A Wang looked at Yin Le and motioned for her to speak.

Yin Le coughed lightly and explained to his master very seriously and rigorously:

"It's like this. After two rounds of cross-investigations by Awang and I, we found that among these twelve wealthy businessmen, the descendants of the Zhang family are deviant, the Xuan family is lustful, the Wu family, Wang family, and Fan family are fond of extravagance, and the Fan family is fond of gambling. "

“Associating with such people will easily damage the reputation of the master, and may affect the career of the master, so in the end only three families, Deng, Qian and Shen, who are diligent, simple and of good conduct, were left.”

After Liu Ji heard this, he was moved to tears. He pointed at Awang and Yin Le and said twice: "Very good, very good."

 Well done, there was no happy path left for him!
