MTL - Unlimited Supplies: Take the Space Supermarket To Support the Right Minister-Chapter 413 Visit Li's
Chapter 413 Visiting the Li Family
To be honest, Yu Xiaolian didn't sleep well last night. She thought that she was dishonest enough to sleep, but she didn't want Su Jinghua to be worse than her.
This little guy was so insecure that he kept leaning towards her side until she covered her with her quilt and used her arms as a pillow before the little guy fell asleep peacefully.
Yu Xiaolian really wondered, did Su Jinghua cry himself to sleep every night when he was sleeping by himself?
Yu Xiaolian's love for Su Jinghua was even worse.
No matter how wrong her mother Yao is, it's none of Su Jinghua's business.
People are not born bad, Su Jinghua is still a blank slate, she should guide her to treat her kindly.
Yu Xiaolian dressed Su Jinghua, and then asked Su Jinghua to put on his shoes and wash on the floor.
Yu Xiaolian taught Su Jinghua to wash his face with essential oil soap and brush his teeth with a toothbrush.
She decided to take care of the little girl's basic necessities of life until she grew up.
"Sister-in-law, it turns out that you have to brush the occlusal part of the teeth. You taught me the details!" Su Jinghua also brushed her teeth before, but no one told her the detailed steps of brushing her teeth. .
Yu Xiaolian took a new cotton white towel and wiped Su Jinghua's face herself, "After breakfast later, my sister-in-law will go out for a while, and she will be back in just over an hour. You and Mrs. Dai are at home and wait for my sister-in-law to come back." I'll buy you delicious cakes!"
"Yes!" Su Jinghua readily agreed.
Yu Xiaolian and Zhao Sanya carried gifts and came to the address Li Mingtan said. Zhao Sanya knocked on the door of Li's house.
Yes, it is the Li family, not the Wu family.
Since Li Mingtan became the editor of the Imperial Academy, he didn't want to be under the fence of others, so he rented this two-entry courtyard in the east of the city. Yes, he rented it, but he couldn't afford it.
His old father-in-law wanted to lend him money to buy a house, but he refused.
Li Mingtan also just returned home from the Gongyuan yesterday, because Chunwei started the exam smoothly, and he also got two days off.
Because Yu Xiaolian had greeted Li Mingtan when she left the Gongyuan, so as soon as Zhao Sanya knocked on the door to explain her intentions, the two of them, master and servant, were warmly welcomed in.
After a simple conversation, Yu Xiaolian learned that it was Li Mingtan's sister-in-law who opened the door for them just now. There are no servants in Li Mingtan's house, they are all family members.
Yu Xiaolian was welcomed into the living room when Li Mingtan and Wu Shi walked over quickly.
"Oh, it's really that girl from the Yu family!" Mrs. Wu looked in good spirits, and she could tell that she was very happy to see Yu Xiaolian.
"Sister-in-law!" Yu Xiaolian thought that since Li Mingtan didn't want to be her uncle, she could follow Li Mingtan's wishes and call Wu Shi her sister-in-law.
Unexpectedly, when she called out like that, she was stunned by Mrs. Wu's call.
"You child... didn't you call me aunt before?" Wu was a little confused. She used to talk about sisters with Sun, and her man talked about brothers with Yu Changhe. Why is Yu Xiaolian calling her sister-in-law now? up?
Li Mingtan saw both Wu's and Yu Xiaolian's embarrassing expressions, and quickly explained to Wu, "Now Xiaolian is a seventh-rank academic officer, and I am on the same level as me. If we still call the eldest niece, it will be an advantage, so From now on, Xiao Lian and I will be called brothers and sisters."
Wu groaned, still feeling a little awkward, but soon she forgot about it, and started asking Yu Xiaolian about Sun.
"My mother didn't come, she's still in Luo City, she's in good health, I came to the capital with my husband-in-law this time, I didn't expect to meet Brother Li in Gongyuan, so I wanted to come and have a look You, no matter what, you can be regarded as an old acquaintance in a foreign land."
Yu Xiaolian came to the exam with her newlywed husband-in-law. Wu Shi had already heard from Li Mingtan that Yu Xiaolian was on the same level as her now, so Wu Shi was too surprised. She didn't understand how an ordinary woman could be in the exam. Such a big official? Can he still be looked at differently by Mr. Fu Ge?
What special ability does Yu Xiaolian have?
Mrs. Wu was very curious, and so were the rest of the Li family, so when Mrs. Wu inquired about these things, everyone in the Li family listened carefully.
Knowing that Yu Xiaolian was appreciated for her outstanding mathematical talent, everyone was amazed.
"Sister-in-law, you are all raised by Brother Li alone?" Yu Xiaolian asked in a low voice.
Yu Xiaolian is also a seventh-rank official now, so she knows that the salary of a seventh-rank official is forty-five taels of silver per year. In addition to the salary, there is also a salary of about forty taels. At the end of the year, it was more than one hundred and twenty taels of silver at most.
Of course, Yu Xiaolian inquired about these things from supervisor Liu. She hasn't received a single penny of the seventh-rank salary yet!
If such a large family does nothing all day long and relies on Li Mingtan to support them all by themselves, then it is really enough for Li Mingtan to drink a pot.
Wu Shi also lowered his voice and replied to Yu Xiaolian, "No, none of these people can do anything well."
In the past few years, she has raised the matter of living in a separate government countless times, but her husband disagrees.
Her man thinks that his family members came to the capital because they followed him. If they live separately from them, it will be driving his brother and nephews to death.
But the price of goods in the capital is extremely expensive. After the three taels of silver for renting a house every month, their family is very tight. Occasionally, Wu needs to go to her mother's house to make a living.
"I, I want them to go out and do some small business. The year before last, I borrowed money from my mother's family and asked my elder brother to go out to set up a wonton stall. As a result, they worked for less than a month, saying that no one came to eat, so they stopped going out. spread out.
Last year, I asked his older brothers to go to the pier to carry bags, but you, brother Li, disliked the embarrassment of carrying bags and refused to let his brothers go.
Well, I have no other choice. Recently, I was begging my father to ask him to give me a few uncles. I got a job as a yamen servant. My father told me to listen. It’s been three months, and I still haven’t found anything! "
Yu Xiaolian glanced at Li Mingtan's three elder brothers in the living room. Although they were all wearing long gowns, they looked a little nondescript.
It stands to reason that even if a farmer's short jacket is replaced with a long one, even if he can't wear it elegantly, it won't be nondescript. Taking another sneak peek, Yu Xiaolian finally discovered the problem.
The clothes these people wear don’t fit well, as if they are not their own size, and the color doesn’t match their skin color.
Seeing Yu Xiaolian's doubts, Mrs. Wu showed a hint of helplessness on her face, "When I learned that there are guests at home, my mother-in-law insisted on asking Mingtan to take out the long gown for his brothers to wear. My mother-in-law, I will take some from her." There is no way!"
When Mrs. Li saw Yu Xiaolian and Mrs. Wu began to whisper to each other, and occasionally glanced at them with disgust, she was a little unhappy, snorted heavily, and then said loudly, "Where is my little grandson? My grandson brought it here for the guests to see!"
