Li Qing paused for a moment and said, “Sister, Brother-in-law, Li Fengqi is a narrow-minded person. He has an inferiority complex and is arrogant. Moreover, he’s utilitarian. After becoming a High Scholar, he really thought that he was a genius under those people’s flattery. He drank and dined with those country squires all day long. He didn’t even enter Aunt’s house and neglected Laidi. I heard that he even accepted the properties and items sent by the country squires. After hanging out with those country squires for a few days, he became much more tactful. He might realize that it’s very difficult for him to improve by himself and turned around to go to Aunt’s house to request marriage. Aunt turned cold to Laidi and agreed to him without hesitation. Laidi listened to everything he said and didn’t heed Aunt’s advice. She even resented Aunt. I think Aunt’s concern is that we can’t support Li Fengqi. Not only would it be thankless, but we might even be stabbed in the back.”

When Zhou Jia heard this, he nodded and said, “We really can’t help someone like Li Fengqi. Once he succeeds with our help, he will bite back.”

Li Yu thought to herself that her family was prospering and her family business was thriving. As long as she, Xiao Xi, and Ah Qing did not court death, Li Fengqi’s hope of surpassing the Zhou family and the Li family was slim. As long as the Zhou family and the Li family did not fall, Li Fengqi could only keep supporting Laidi and be a loving couple with her. However, for a man, Laidi could disregard the many years of nurturing by her aunt and uncle. Such a person was not worth helping. She would let the man she loved torture her and let her see Li Fengqi’s true colors clearly. Also, Li Fengqi was only a High Scholar, but he dared to accept properties. She did not know what he would do when he advanced to the next level.

Li Yu looked at Zhou Jia and Li Qing. “Li Fengqi is such a greedy and immoral person. After he achieves his ambition, he will definitely prey on the commoners. Let’s not help the wicked.”

The two of them felt that Li Yu was right. Zhou Jia said, “As long as they behave themselves, with Li Fengqi’s status as a High Scholar, they can totally live a good life when they return to Tongzhou. I wonder what will happen if they stay in the capital and continue to take the imperial examination?”

“Brother-in-law is right. Sister, when Laidi comes to see you, try to persuade her.” Li Qing saw that the two of them were a little tired and swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue. “Sister, Brother-in-law, it’s getting late. You’re tired after traveling for so long. We’ll talk tomorrow.”

“I’m not tired. Your brother-in-law let me rest all day long. How can I be tired?”

Seeing Li Yu’s expression, Zhou Jia knew that she still wanted to talk to Li Qing. He smiled and said to Li Qing, ‘Your sister wants to talk to you for a while. Are you tired? If you’re not, sit for a while longer.”

“I’m not tired.” Li Qing smiled and shook his head.

“Ah Qing, did you have something to say just now?” Li Yu looked at Li Qing and asked.

Li Qing told the two of them about his meeting with Lin Zexu and said, “A few groups of people have come to the house to propose marriage in the past few days, but I’ve rejected them all. There might be more people coming to your door. Sister, Brother-in-law, since you think Miss Fan is not bad and I don’t have a woman I like myself, I shall just follow your thoughts and get engaged to Miss Fan to save the trouble.”

“Marriage is a matter of life. How can you be afraid of trouble!” Li Yu smiled at

Li Qing. “My Ah Qing must be the most handsome and refined Third Honors Scholar in history. Unfortunately, Sister and Brother-in-law didn’t get to see your glory at the streeyt parade. Alright, if we want to marry someone’s daughter, let’s take the initiative. Tomorrow, I’ll get your brother-in-law to bring you to the Fan family to meet Lord Fan and his wife. If the Fan family agrees, the two of you can take a look before we go through the official means to propose marriage.”

“Sister,” Li Qing said with a red face, then said, “I’ll listen to you. Sister, what about the Lin family? Do you think we should acknowledge them or not?”

Li Yu frowned and thought for a moment. “The Lin family, we’ll talk about it when he understands and comes looking for us. Alright! You’ve been running for a few days to pick us up outside the city. I’m sure you’re tired. Go and rest!” Li Qing nodded and replied, “Yes! Sister, Brother-in-law, rest early too.”

“Alright!” Zhou Jia carried Li Yu back to the room and saw Yangyang sleeping soundly on the bed. Xing Hua was already asleep leaning against the bedpost. Li Yu smiled and patted her. She whispered, “Xing Hua, go to sleep!”

Xing Hua stood up and wiped the saliva from the corner of her mouth. She smiled in embarrassment and bowed. “Master, Madam, I’ll go down.”

“Go!” After Xing Hua left, the couple got into bed and leaned against each other. Zhou Jia gently patted Li Yu’s shoulder. “Yu’er, Zhao Cai said that the concubine of that person in the old residence took away the remaining assets. The child in her stomach belongs to someone else.”

“Ah! Li Yu looked at Zhou Jia in surprise, “He’s been hit by an immortal’s jump! It’s really like tofu with brine. Everything has its weakness. Your father actually fell into the hands of a liar. It’s really retribution.”

Zhou Jia recalled those days in the past and sighed. “That’s right! My mother was sincere toward him back then. That vicious woman also yearned for him. He said that he had found his true love, but it turned out to be such a thing.”

In the Fan family’s house on East Street, Fan Wenzheng and Madam Wu were leaning against the bed. Fan Wenzheng told Madam Wu about meeting the Zhou family and the Zhou family’s intention to get married. Before he could finish speaking, Madam Wu interrupted him. “Master, why are you still so confused? It’s just that we met on the way. How do you know what kind of person his brother-in-law is? You grew up with that Feng guy and were so close that you could wear the same pants. In the end, how did his family treat you? They wanted our Wanwan to stay at his house as a widow and even ruined Wanwan’s reputation outside…” Madam Wu recalled the pain her daughter had suffered all these years and cried sadly.

Fan Wenzheng hurriedly hugged Madam Wu and said to her with a smile, “Madam, it won’t be wrong this time. Lord Zhou’s reputation as an official is not bad. Along the way, I feel that the couple are both gentle and kind people. I told Lord Zhou the truth and he even said that we should go knocking on that person’s door. I even saw his brother-in-law with my own eyes. That child is indeed extraordinary. I heard that he’s the Third Honors Scholar.”

“What? You said that his brother-in-law is the Third Honors Scholar?” Madam Wu stopped crying and looked up at Fan Wenzheng.

Fan Wenzheng smiled and nodded. “Yes! Lord Zhou told me himself.”

Madam Wu shook her head in disbelief. “How is that possible? Sister-in-law and I went to see the scholars. The Top scholar is a middle-aged man in his thirties or forties. The Third Honors Scholar is barely in his twenties and is peerlessly handsome. Everyone says that the Third Honors Scholar is well-deserved. Why would he marry us?”

“Madam, believe me. I saw him with my own eyes. That child’s name is Li Qing.

He’s only in his twenties. Think about it. Is his surname Li and name Qing?”

Madam Wu thought for a moment. “I don’t care about his name. I only heard them call him Scholar Li. I heard that he’s from Tongzhou.”

Fan Wenzheng looked at his wife and clapped his hands with a smile. “That’s right. They’re from Tongzhou..”
