Chapter 147: The Whetstone Makes Up Yesterday

"But we can't do this job anymore!" Grandma Zhou threw the pillow in her arms and said, Li Xiaozu muttered: "I know this, but Fourth Master... I can't go against him."

"I'm more reluctant to part with this job than you are, but isn't there nothing I can do now? The fourth master made such a fuss, and now the sister is going to marry the fifth master. Tell me, what will happen to the fourth master and the fifth master in the future?

What should we do? How can we take advantage of Fourth Master? Let people know that this spitting star can drown us! This is not enough, that sister is not easy to deal with. Look at the matter of Third Sister, we

She was so greedy for this advantage that she couldn't bear to let go. I didn't know what she was doing when I looked back. Now I see that she didn't have her hands free. She can't do this job no matter what!" Grandma Zhou Da\ said rather than trying to persuade Li Xiaozu.

You are convincing yourself.

Li Xiaozu looked at her and muttered: "I can't bear to part with you."

"Why don't you resign again?" Grandma Zhou suggested. Li Xiaozu shook his head like a rattle: "After coming out of Fourth Master's place, I went to look for Mr. Lu again. Mr. Lu asked me not to make it difficult for him. He said this.

I can't make the decision, so I want to resign. I just ask the Fourth Master to resign. It's obvious that I can't say anything if I'm afraid of the Fourth Master. Besides, I can't afford to offend the Fourth Master if I keep saying my words."

"That's what you said, but I can't do this job! What should I do?" Grandma Zhou looked sad. Li Xiaozu followed suit and said with a sad face: "Yes, but what should I do?"

"We don't dare to offend the fourth master, and we can't offend that sister. Neither of them can be offended. How about I go look for the fifth sister." Grandma Zhou Da\ suddenly said after thinking about it for a while. Li Xiaozu nodded after hearing this.

I was stunned when I heard the last thing: "What are you looking for her for?"

"Tell her about this and let her make up her mind. This job is not what we want. Now that we can't resign, we have to tell her. Maybe she already knows about this. I will go find her now!"

Grandma Zhou Da\ has always been a person of action. As she spoke, she jumped off the kang and walked out. Li Xiaozu hurriedly followed behind. Grandma Zhou Da\ waved her hand without looking back: "You wait at home." Li Xiaozu hurriedly stopped him.

He walked slowly, eagerly watching his wife go out, and then he went back to the house and waited.

Li Tian looked at Grandma Zhou unexpectedly, and couldn't figure out the reason for her visit. Grandma Zhou took the tea handed over by Yingluo, raised it to her mouth, looked at Yingluo, and then looked at the account book beside the table.

She copied a pair of Yinhua and Yuye, turned to look at Li Tian, ​​and scanned the three of them again. Li Tian understood what she meant, smiled and raised her hand to signal Yingluo. Yingluo turned around and told Yinhua and Yuye: "First

Put away the tent and prepare some snacks in the small kitchen at the back."

Yin Hua and Yu Ye agreed, put down their pen and paper and exited. Ying Luo followed them and also exited the wing. Grandma Zhou breathed a sigh of relief, put down her cup, looked at Li Tian and said: "Coming to disturb you so late, Wu

Sister, please be patient, it's really an urgent matter, and because of this, I had a mouth full of blisters in a few days." Grandma Zhou gestured to show Li Tian the line of blisters on her mouth.

"What's the matter?" Li Tian's heart rose, and Grandma Zhou clapped her hands in annoyance: "It's the mission your eldest brother received. This mission, alas, I didn't know how it came until Qian'er.

I thought your eldest brother had great luck. Not only did he know where the mission came from, but he also knew that he shouldn’t have received the mission at all. But didn’t he know it before? Now that I know it, I will discuss this mission with your eldest brother.

I can't do it anyway, so I have to resign as soon as possible. Your eldest brother just resigned from his job??" Grandma Zhou said in detail how Li Xiaozu resigned from his job, and looked at it with a hint of timidity.

Li Tian said: "Your elder brother and I have no choice but to come here to look for you. What do you think we should do?"

Li Tian secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and it turned out to be this: "I know this," Li Tian thought for a moment and said, "Since this is an errand that you cannot refuse, then just do it. In the future, you should be careful when doing errands. Don't ask for merit, just do it."

Please don’t do anything wrong.”

"That's OK," Grandma Zhou didn't expect Li Tian to reply like this. She was startled and hurriedly agreed: "Don't worry, I will tell your brother once a day to be careful when doing his job. You must not stand out, or you will get a point that you shouldn't get."

I won’t take it, I’ll be satisfied if I can get the salary.” Li Tian pursed his lips and smiled, and nodded in agreement.

After seeing off Grandma Zhou, Li Tian lowered his head and walked slowly back along the veranda. He stopped at the door of the upper room, stayed for a while, turned straight forward, passed through the moon gate, and found a meal in the backyard.

Yue Niang, who was on her last trip, briefly explained Li Xiaozu's inaccuracy in his speech, and then ordered: "Go to Qingfeng Tower and see if the Fifth Master is there. If so, tell him this in person. If

If he's not here, come back and go back tomorrow when he comes."

"Just the three sentences about Dalang Cicha and Fourth Master, what about the other ones?"

"What else can you say next to me?"

"That's right. That's how you people talk. Why do you cause trouble? You tell me a riddle, and I guess it, but I can't tell it. I have to answer another riddle. I keep guessing all day long. Aren't you afraid of guessing it wrong?

"Yue Niang remembered Shui Qiu Niang's training on how to speak at noon, and complained all over. Li Tian looked at Yue Niang and smiled and said: "If you think it's not good to talk like this, I will teach you a way.

"Why don't you just be silent and talk less." Yue Niang thought for a while and sighed: "If you don't talk, won't your mouth be useless except for eating? Alas, not talking is easier than guessing riddles. Okay, I'll go.

Yes, don’t worry, I guarantee there won’t be one more word.”

The fifth prince watched Yue Niang walk out of the courtyard and slammed the cup in her hand. Huang Jingjie was startled. The fifth prince had a cold face, took the handkerchief, and wiped the splash on his hand.

Serve tea.

"Don't think too much about it. The fourth master originally arranged this mission for Li Dalang, but now he withdraws as soon as he gets married. How can you be so stingy?" Huang Jingjie explained. The fifth prince sneered: "I dare not tell others, old man

Fourth, Li Dalang is not allowed to resign, not to show his generosity! The fourth brother and I grew up together, he is the phoenix in everyone's heart, he never lowers his head to look at me, but I look up at him every day! He

I know exactly what kind of person he is!"

Huang Jingjie's face became more solemn: "What about Fourth Master?"

"How many times have I told you that his things are never allowed to be touched by others. He thinks that person belongs to him!" The fifth prince slapped the table and said with his teeth crossed. The expression on Huang Jingjie's face became very strange. The fifth master and

The Li family's wife's marriage was an official order, what else could he do?

"If Fourth Master keeps thinking so hard, won't he be suffering for himself?" Huang Jingjie said helplessly, and the fifth prince's eyes were full of gloom: "Having suffered for himself? If his father is here, he can only suffer for himself, but if his father is not here, he will suffer for himself.

What about him? One day he sits on that high position, how can he still suffer for himself?" Huang Jingjie shivered smartly, and after a long while he managed to squeeze out a sentence: "Why did the fifth master say this?"

Halfway through his words, Huang Jingjie couldn't go on. There was no family affection in the Tian family: "Why did the officials recommend such a marriage to the fifth master?" Huang Jingjie couldn't help complaining.

"I just can't figure this out," the fifth prince said in a heavy tone: "I started thinking about this from the moment I knelt outside Jixian Hall, and even now I still don't understand, who does my father really care about?" Huang Jingxiu said in a flash.

With a slight flash of light, he looked at the fifth prince and couldn't help but feel anxious.

"There are six of us brothers. The second one is dead. Not to mention, the third one is too stupid. He pretends to be cautious all day long, studying Zen and Buddhism, and keeping aloof from the world. But in his heart, he has serious thoughts.

The only way to fight is to fight. I can see this at a glance, and the fourth brother and the eldest brother can naturally see it too, let alone my father. What kind of person is my father? I must look down on such a fool, the sixth wife.

Xiao, the previous dynasty lost its fortune because the official family was too young. Besides, my father favored Concubine Jiang, but never refused to use the Jiang family. From this point of view, the sixth child is not the same, so there are only the eldest brother and the fourth child.

Which one does dad like?" the fifth prince asked in confusion.

"The fifth master has let himself slip." Huang Jingjie looked at the fifth prince and said softly. The fifth prince shook his head and waved his hands: "I have a lazy temper. Don't talk about those tricks and rules. I just go to court at five o'clock every day.

If we can't do it, if the empire is left in the hands of a lazy person like me, sooner or later the power will fall away and disasters will be everywhere. My father understands this better than I do. How could he give me the inheritance of my ancestors? It can't be me, I

I have never had that kind of heart, not before, not ever again."

Huang Jingjie sighed secretly, and had to admit that the fifth prince was right, he was indeed too lazy to enjoy it.

"It must be one of the two, the eldest brother and the fourth brother. Which one does dad prefer? The fourth brother? If it was the fourth brother, why didn't he replace Concubine Ye? Brother? If it was the eldest brother, why did he allow the Ye family to form a clique? Is it possible?

Dad himself has not made up his mind? He is referring to this marriage, is it?" The fifth prince's back was stiff, and his eyes were as cold as ice and snow. Could it be that dad was pushing him out to be the whetstone? With his wealth and life
