Happy Little Scholar

"Look, look!"

The short-bearded man pointed at Lin Wanru's leaving back and said angrily: "This girl is getting more and more outrageous. Does she still take us elders in her eyes?"

"This is already the case. If she gets married in a few years, the Lin family will no longer have the surname Lin!"

"She has become more and more arbitrary in the past two years."

"If this continues, the Lin family will become the Lin family for her alone!"

…

…

After Lin Wanru left, the meeting hall immediately became noisy, led by the short-bearded man.

"Okay, okay..."

An old man sitting at the top waved his hand, stood up and said, "Okay, this is not the first time you have seen her like this. The money that should be distributed to you is not less every year. Just take the money honestly." Okay, let’s stop gesticulating about business matters.”

The old man glanced at everyone and walked out slowly with his hands behind his back.

The short-bearded man's face alternated between red and white. After a moment, he waved his hand and said: "No matter what, I don't agree to let an outsider take care of the Lin family's account. I want to see who she brought back!" "

After saying that, he snorted coldly and left with a puff of sleeves.

In the small courtyard, a woman named Lin Wanru placed two thick account books on the stone table and said: "There is no problem in letting you stay in the Lin family during this period, but there must be a reason, otherwise there will always be some Please, leave these two account books with you for now. If anyone asks, just say that you are my new accountant. If you have any other plans in the future, you can leave at any time."

Li Yi nodded and said, "Thank you, Miss Lin."

"No need to thank me." Lin Wanru glanced into the room and said, "Although you are a scholar, but since you have reached this point, you should put away the tricks of the weak scholar and act like a man. From now on, you will Living with two people and starting a family is not as simple as studying. A woman can do this for you. I hope you will not let her down. "

After she said these words, she turned around and left. Li Yi stood there in a daze, with a confused expression.

The man came over, patted him on the shoulder, and said: "The young lady's aunt, despite her family's objections, eloped with a scholar. Later, the scholar had a new love, and later, and later, what happened to the young lady. not too good……"

The man sighed and said: "He passed away within two years of returning to the house. The lady was the closest to her before, so she has always had a prejudice against scholars."

A look of astonishment appeared on Li Yi's face. He didn't expect that Miss Lin would have such an experience.

In this way, if he and Miss Liu Er hadn't misunderstood their relationship by her, they probably wouldn't have received such care along the way.

The big man patted him on the shoulder again and said, "So, you'd better be nicer to this girl. What my young lady hates the most is people who always give up."

Li Yi came back to his senses, nodded, and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely treat her well."

"Brother Li, you are not that kind of person at first glance. I believe you, otherwise, the lady would not take care of you like this." The big man smiled and waved away.

Li Yi shook his head and was about to walk back to the room when a voice suddenly came from behind him.

"stop."

He turned his head and watched several figures step into the small courtyard.

The leader is a middle-aged man with a short beard on his chin. The two people behind him are obviously lackeys and can be ignored automatically.

The middle-aged man glanced at him and asked, "Are you the accountant that Wanru invited?"

"Exactly." Li Yi replied.

The person in front of him seemed to have the slightest bit of hostility towards him. From the name he called Miss Lin, combined with the information he got from the man's mouth, it should be the "trouble" that Lin Wanru just said.

The middle-aged man looked at him, with a hint of threat in his tone, and said, "I don't care what she promised you. I only advise you to stay out of my Lin family's affairs. Young people should know what it means to cause trouble."

Li Yi waved his sleeves gently and said nothing.

Being completely ignored, a trace of anger appeared on the middle-aged man's face and he said, "Do you know who I am?"

"I don't know who you are." Li Yi sighed, pointed at the hem of his clothes, and said, "I only know what it means to set yourself on fire..."

The middle-aged man looked down in the direction of his finger, and then his expression changed drastically. At some point, the hem of his clothes started to burn. Next to his feet, there was a potion boiler. The fire under the pot was so strong at this time that it actually burned the hem of his clothes.

"Second Master, there is a pond outside!"

Someone next to him saw him struggling to unbutton a row of buttons on his clothes and said hurriedly.

The second master was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then ran outside.

"I have no quality, and I don't know how to close the door." After the three of them left in a hurry, Li Yi walked over and closed the courtyard door. When he walked back again, he waved his sleeves and blew part of the fire aside. Next, Just simmer it over low heat for a while and it'll be fine.

Miss Liu Er, who had changed her clothes, came out, sat on a stone bench in the yard, and asked, "When will we go back?"

You can't always wear the clothes of the inn boy. When Miss Lin came over just now, she had food delivered and some clothes given to her.

"Wait until your injury gets better." Li Yi said, stirring up the fire.

There was no rush to go back, and now we had to find a way to get some silver.

It was obvious that a single sentence could decide a business worth hundreds of thousands of taels of silver. Now the two of us didn't have a single penny on us, and we couldn't rely on Miss Lin for everything.

Miss Liu Er was weak now, so if we bought some precious herbs and made some medicinal food, her injury would probably get better faster.

And all of this required silver.

We would talk about these things after we moved out of the Lin family in two days.

After a while, Li Yi filtered the boiled medicine into a bowl, walked into the room, looked at Miss Liu Er and said, "It's time to take the medicine."

Miss Liu Er looked up at him and stretched out her palm.

"There's only one left." Li Yi put the last candy in her hand.

"Then drink half of it." Miss Liu Er put the candy away and said.

Li Yi shook his head and said firmly: "No, drink it all."

Miss Liu frowned: "Half."

Li Yi suddenly thought of something and asked: "Can't you use your true energy now?"

Miss Liu looked up at him as if she smelled something and asked: "What do you want to do?"

"What do you think?" Li Yi looked down at her and smiled: "Open your mouth..."

"You dare!"

"Will you open your mouth?"

"No!"

"Don't force me to do it myself..."

"Try to move!"

"Try it."

"Let me go..., wait, wait until my injury is healed, I..."

...

Outside the courtyard gate, Lin Wanru wanted to remind the scholar not to care about what others said, but she stood outside the door in a daze, blushing as she listened to the faint voice coming from inside.

She glanced inside with shame and anger, and turned away quickly.

A moment later, Li Yi walked out of the room, saw the two account books on the stone table in the courtyard, and walked over slowly.
