Chapter 742: Go to the Capital to Enjoy Life
...
It is said that the patriarch of the Li family was worried about his extremely smart youngest son, who had no one to help him.
Guanzhen happened to come back from the capital and brought them this great news.
It turned out that the young man who was like a lost dog back then actually became a third-rank official.
A third-rank official...
Even in his dreams, he would not have dared to imagine that their Li family could produce such a person.
What's more, there is actually a very powerful Li family in the capital, and this Li Wansheng is a relative of the family.
Also, the one who took Li Wansheng away back then was actually the current Queen...
It can be said that Guanzhen brought back these news.
Every piece of news made the patriarch feel a little unbelievable.
It was at this time that the patriarch's mind began to move.
Since the Li family in the capital is related to that young man, then they are related to their branch of the Li family.
I heard from the nun that my young master's family is actually a marquis's family.
This branch of the Li family has lived in small places like the countryside all their lives.
Even the old patriarch had never seen what the people in the marquis' mansion looked like in his entire life.
Moreover, the Empress in the palace not only took me away, but also helped me to pass the imperial examinations.
That must be a high hope for the later generations.
The future after that night...
Even if he is granted a title of nobility or appointed as a general in the future, wouldn't that be a natural thing?
He felt that it was for the future of his youngest son.
He must also hold on tightly to this thread of late life.
His youngest son is so smart that he seems to be a rare talent among men.
As long as they come to Beijing and establish a relationship with the Li family, there is no need to worry that the Li family will not support their youngest son.
After all, they are connected as a clan and have the same ancestor.
His youngest son is promising, so those members of his clan should be proud of him, right?
Not to mention the future, when the Empress will speak well of him in front of the Emperor.
Even his youngest son would not be able to achieve the status of a marquis or a general.
For me, becoming a third-rank official is something that can be easily achieved.
I have to say that this patriarch thinks a lot.
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became.
My youngest son is a very lucky man.
Now such a great opportunity is right in front of them.
If they don't make good use of it, wouldn't they be fools?
However, this matter still needs to be informed to my uncle.
After all, they are the closest relatives.
There was no reason for him to bypass that family and go to the capital alone to seek relatives.
Besides, Li Youcai is not someone who is easy to talk to.
If he knew that I had secretly gone to the capital to make friends without their knowledge, who knows what would happen.
So after careful consideration, the patriarch knocked on the door of Li Youcai's house.
Let’s talk about Li Youcai.
Ever since my parents ran away from home, the good days for the couple have come to an end.
Although his biased parents were also working hard in the fields.
But they are old after all, and there are limits to what they can do.
The work that they couldn't finish fell on the couple.
At that time, the couple was really exhausted.
Since they have suffered so much, they must be looking for someone to vent their anger.
The old couple became the couple's punching bags.
They would often not let the old couple eat.
When Li Youcai got angry, he would occasionally get drunk and beat up the old couple.
That old couple is no match for Li Youcai.
Within two years, the old couple were tortured to death by them.
Let’s talk about Li Youcai’s three sons.
The three children were spoiled by their grandparents since they were young, and they all developed a lazy and gluttonous nature.
After the old couple of the Li family died.
Even when Li Youcai and his wife worked in the fields, they were exhausted.
The three brothers were unwilling to do so, so they went down to the fields to help them.
Given their lazy and idle nature, it will be difficult for them to find marriage after they grow up.
Li Youcai and his wife exhausted all their financial resources and begged everyone for help, and finally they managed to get their eldest son married.
Now the second and third sons are still single.
Just ask Li Youcai and his wife if they are anxious?
Of course, the couple were extremely anxious.
Now there are only people eating in their family, but no one working.
Even the daughter-in-law who was married into the family was a lazy and greedy person.
Li Youcai and his wife didn't even dare to say anything about their daughter-in-law.
His eldest son protects his wife very closely.
As long as they dare to say a few more words.
Their eldest son dared to swing a chair and hit them on the heads.
The life they lead now is really frustrating.
And there are two bachelors in the family now.
The old couple are almost worried to death.
When the clan leader came over and told them about his later life.
Their whole family was present at the time.
"Dad, we've made a fortune, but I didn't expect that bastard Li Wansheng would be so successful..."
The eldest brother started yelling loudly without waiting for the patriarch to finish speaking.
"Since Li Wansheng has a big house in the capital, we must have a share..."
The second son of the Li family also said happily.
What the second and third sons are most dissatisfied about now is that the family is too poor and there is no money for them to get married.
Now they knew that Li Wansheng lived in a luxurious mansion in the capital.
They are definitely going to live there.
After all, they have the same grandparents.
Their fathers are brothers.
Now that Li Wansheng has become a high-ranking official, they will surely enjoy the good life with him.
"But, when I came back with his mother..."
Li Youcai was a little hesitant.
What happened back then affected not only the old clan leader, but also the current clan leaders, including him.
They knew clearly how they treated the late-born mother and child.
The only fear is that Li Wansheng will bear a grudge and won’t be willing to accept them.
"Dad, when Li Wansheng and his mother came back, they asked for help from the old clan leader, and you didn't meet them..."
The words from the third son of the Li family awakened Li Youcai.
Yes, when the old patriarch found him.
He did say some harsh words that he shouldn't have said.
But at that time, he was speaking to the old patriarch.
He had not met Wansheng and his mother, nor had he said those words in front of them.
Could it be that God is helping them?
Let them catch up with the younger generation, and then their whole family can go to the capital to enjoy a good life.
After all, even if we talk about the horizon, he is still my uncle.
Even if he lets his younger generation take care of him in his old age, that would be understandable.
If I remember the grudge from the past, I would be unwilling to acknowledge him as my uncle.
Then he is not afraid.
Nowadays, all those officials in the court are particularly concerned about their reputation.
At worst, he would just make a scene and the young man would have to submit obediently.
Thinking of this, Li Youcai felt hot in his heart.
"Patriarch, if we go to the capital to recognize our relatives now, can we live in your house and enjoy a good life?"
Li Youcai looked at the patriarch and asked.
