Chapter 187
"Big brother, what does he mean? Stop them quickly!" Kong Yuhe said, looking in the direction where Qingmu and the others had left with dissatisfaction.
While gesturing for his men to untie Kong Meng'er, Kong Yuchuan shoved the letter into Kong Yuhe's arms with annoyance, saying, "Read it yourself!"
Kong Yuchuan looked at the sky and swallowed the tears of frustration in his heart.
They and their father were all grown men, and there weren't many women in the manor. They didn't understand the affairs of girls, so naturally they couldn't talk to Kong Meng'er about them.
None of the three of them got married.
There was no sister-in-law who could teach her about matters between men and women.
Adding to the things the brothers in the village said after they had wives and children, the sister never expected to misunderstand to this extent.
"Big brother..." Kong Yuhe fell silent after reading the letter.
How do you explain this?
It was really quite awkward.
"Big brother, hurry up and bring that brat back to me!" Kong Meng'er was furious when she thought about how Qingmu had kept her quiet all the way!
She had never suffered like this before. Just now, her mouth was gagged and she couldn't speak. People who didn't know the situation might have thought she was mute.
"Nonsense! You're not allowed to go anywhere these days. You'd better stay in the manor obediently." Kong Yuchuan thought to himself that he still needed to find a nanny to properly teach his younger sister a lesson.
Otherwise, if we go out again, wouldn't we become a laughing stock?

As soon as Li Tianyou came out of the Ministry of Revenue, he was stopped in his tracks.
"Lord Li!" the newcomer called out to Li Tianyou with a fawning expression.
"Who are you?" Li Tianyou was tired after a busy day and really didn't want to deal with other people.
But this person kept blocking his way, and Li Tianyou couldn't pretend he didn't see him anymore.
"Lord Li, you are a man of high status and may have a bad memory. It is alright if you do not remember me, but I remember you very well," the man said with a smile.
Li Tianyou frowned. He really didn't remember ever seeing this person before.
He had met most of the officials from the Six Ministries, but he had never seen this person before.
However, his official robes made Li Tianyou hesitate.
Could it be that I've actually seen it before, but just can't remember it right now?
"I wonder, sir, is there something you need?" Since Li Tianyou couldn't guess, he stopped trying.
"Look at what you're saying, Lord Li. You think I can't come to see you if there's nothing wrong? Back in Li'an County, we met once." Xu Xiangren said with a smile, trying to get closer to Li Tianyou.
"I didn't expect that you, sir, had also been to Li'an County?" Li Tianyou asked in surprise.
"Unfortunately, I served in Xin'an County for three years, and I only returned to the capital this year," Xu Xiangren said with a smug look. You know, it was a rare opportunity to return to the capital after serving as the magistrate of a small county like Xin'an.
Even now, as a minor official in the Court of Imperial Stud, he is still far better off than many others.
"So it's Lord Xu. Look at my memory." Li Tianyou knew Xu Xiangren, but he had never met him. However, the Li family had business in Xin'an County, and he had only heard of it but never met him.
"Oh? So Lord Li actually knows me? That is truly my honor!" Xu Xiangren was overjoyed. He hadn't expected that Li Tianyou actually knew him. He thought to himself that coming to see Li Tianyou today was definitely the right decision.
