Chapter 180 Contentment
The old lady loved Li Li Ting the most, so it was impossible for her to sit idly by and watch Li Li Ting suffer a setback.
Seeing the old lady defending Li Liting, Li Yuan said, "Old lady, look at him now. Where is the Li Li family spirit? When my father said he would take him to the battlefield, you protected him like your lifeblood. If Li Liting had stayed in the northwest for a period of time, he would not have become like this."
The old lady wanted to say something, but Li Liting spoke first: "Mother, it's not easy for big brother to come back. Let's prepare a banquet and welcome him back."
Li Liting was a smart man. He knew that he would not amount to much. The reason he was still able to stay in officialdom was because of Li Liyuan.
He knew his eldest brother's character well. He always hated evil and hated evil. He didn't dare to offend his eldest brother just because the old lady was around. Otherwise, what would he do if his eldest brother ignored him in the future?
The old lady was angry with Li Liting again. Why was he so useless?
But since Li Ting had spoken, the old lady had to give him face: "In that case, let the chef in the mansion prepare it. By the way, where is your wife?"
Li Ting replied: "Minzhi said her sister is back and wants to take her to stay at the mansion for a while. I guess she went to the Yao family."
The old lady nodded to show that she understood and said nothing more.
"Old lady, you don't have to worry about the ancestor worship. You should just take a rest." After saying this, Li Yuan left with Su Chenyu and Li Yanqing.
Seeing the three people leave without hesitation, the old lady began to have a headache. Each of them was an enemy.
"Mom, you sent someone to bring me here. You didn't do it to see my elder brother, did you? My elder brother was coming back, why didn't you tell me in advance? I didn't know anything about it."
Listening to Li Liting's complaints, the old lady waved her hand feebly, not wanting to explain any more: "You can go too."
"You are angry, why are you taking it out on me?" Li Ting muttered and walked away.
The old lady let out a long sigh. Originally, she called Li Liting over to discuss matters concerning ancestor worship, but now it seemed that there was no need for that.
On this side, the three of them left Fushou Hall, and Li Yanqing asked, "Father, how long can you stay in the capital this time?"
"I have already met the Emperor, and he told me to stay in the capital for a few more days. But from what he said, I will be gone in a month at most."
Emperor Jing of Wei did not want Li Yuan to stay in the capital at all, but in order to show his benevolence and righteousness, he pretended to let Li Yuan stay for a few more days.
"I'll have someone clean up a room in Beiyuan, and you can live in Beiyuan, father." Now in the entire Lili Prefecture, only Beiyuan is relatively quiet.
Li Yuan shook his head and said, "No, I live in the original Bamboo Garden. The Bamboo Garden is next to the North Garden."
Lili Yanqing did not persuade him any further, and Liliyuan continued, "Yanqing, I did not have the time to send you a gift when you and the princess got married. Now that I am back, I will make up for it by sending you a gift."
Li Yuan took out a few deeds from his bosom: "I know that the shops under the name of Li Mansion are all owned by the old lady. After all, she is my mother, and I can't be disrespectful to her. These shops are doing very well. Handing them over to you and the princess is also a small token of my gratitude as a father."
Li Liyanqing took the deed and was a little surprised to see the name of the store on it.
These shops are all well-known and prosperous shops in the city. I didn’t expect that they were owned by Li Liyuan.
"Father, these should be the last few shops you have left. I can't accept them." Li Li Yanqing wanted to return them, but Li Liyuan refused: "Yanqing, these things are just external things. They are only valuable if they can help you. Besides, you will rely on me in the future. Don't you plan to care about me as your father?"
"Of course not."
