The person who came was Li Yuanwai's Xuxian, Li Weizheng's stepmother, and the owner of the Li family who truly held great power. Her name was Yang Ying, the daughter of a wealthy family in Linhuai County. After her husband died, she remarried Li Yuanwai, who lost his wife in middle age. A few years ago, she gave birth to a daughter. Although she couldn't read a few words, she was smart and capable, and she kept the Li family obediently, but she didn't manage it in an orderly manner.

Mr. Li belonged to the well-off landlord class, and his ancestors were all landlords for generations. After the Mongolians massacred Zhang, Wang, Liu, and Li, the only family was left. He has always been a low-key person. His family property was only passed down to the eldest son, and he has never left the country for generations. He has kept his family undefeated. However, in Mr. Li's generation, the situation changed again. He had only one son and had a thin descendant. For this reason, he married a wife four years ago. He originally hoped that she could have a few more sons for him, but he himself was unable to do so. He has only one daughter. Before marrying his wife, he heard from the matchmaker that Yang Ying was gentle and quiet and had a rich family. He was moved. Unexpectedly, he married a Hedong lion. In that respect, he had a big appetite, which made him miserable in recent years.

This is how men are. Once they are not upright, they will be afraid to give in. In addition, they are difficult to be between their son and their back-wife. In addition, they are very face-saving and unwilling to show off their family's shame. In this way, the more they are wronged, the more they are forced by their wife step by step. In the past three years, Li Yuanwai's defense has collapsed completely, and the family's financial power is lost. He is afraid that his wife's reputation will spread all over the country. At this time, the couple turned upside down and turned into Yang Ying to seek face and do not want to show off her family's shame. However, Li Yuanwai is a dead pig and is not afraid of boiling water. As soon as his wife takes action, he flees. It is known to everyone in the village. In the end, his wife gives in and sends someone to find him back.

"I heard that you can't remember anything about the past, so do you still know me?"

Although it was an inquiry, Yang Ying's tone was obviously hostile. It turned out that Li Weizheng had a very bad relationship with her. She looked down on the young master of the Li family. She was young and tall and stout, but she was idle all day long. She said she was studying but refused to work hard. She couldn't even pass the exam for a scholar. She failed the exam for five consecutive years and became a big laugh in Linhuai County. According to Yang Ying's idea, Li Weizheng could help him manage the accounts. Don't take the exam for that hard work. The scholar could not be a meal. But as soon as she opened her mouth, she hurt the young master's slenderness.

而敏感的神经,跳起来和她大吵大闹,摔盆砸碗,把家里闹得鸡犬不宁,半个多月前李员外给他提起从小订下的一门婚事,想让他成亲后转转性,可他不知犯了哪门毛病,竟大喊大丈夫不趋炎附势,娶低不娶高,叫嚷着要退婚,杨缨忍无可忍,就命人将他狠揍一顿,他就仿佛烧了尾巴一样,疯闹一阵后竟跳了井,杨缨也颇为懊恼,今天趁李员外不在家,便过来瞧瞧这个魔头.

It was the first time that Li Wei saw this woman, but he knew that this was his stepmother. He heard from his father that he almost burned Yang Ying to death in the sedan chair on the first day he came to visit. The two of them had a cold face for several years and had a very bad relationship. He couldn't help but hate the ignorant young master of the Li family who was in the past. He caused such a big trouble for him. Only when the family was harmonious was prosperous!

Li Weizheng smiled bitterly and said, "I can't remember the past, but I know my mistake. I shouldn't have quarreled with my stepmother and made my father embarrassed. I apologize to you."

"Oh!" A trace of surprise flashed in Yang Ying's cold eyes. He actually called her stepmother. This was something she had never seen in four or five years after entering the Li family. And he admitted his mistake, which was even more unheard of. She originally wanted to scold him while Mr. Li was absent, but he admitted his mistake first. This made Yang Ying feel a little proud and a little lost his goal. However, the hatred accumulated in her heart after fighting with Li Wei for so many years has been aged with him.

It wasn't possible to suck it like this. The surprise flashed in Yang Ying's eyes and disappeared. She still said coldly: "I came here to ask you what you plan to do in the future. If you want to continue taking the exam for fame, I can pay you to study in Suzhou. Don't you like your uncle who runs a cake shop? You can go to join him, but I only provide you with two years and can't get into the county exam. You will go home to work in farming. Do you understand? There is no lazy guy at home."

"I don't know what I can do in the future. Can I think about it for a few days?" Li Weizheng said the truth, and he was confused about his future.

Yang Ying looked at him for a while and nodded reluctantly, "Okay! Let's talk about it when you take care of your health first."

Suddenly, a woman shouted from outside the door: "Madam, the master is back."

Yang Ying was stunned. She immediately walked out the door like a gust of wind. When she walked to the door, she suddenly turned around and told: "Don't tell your father that I've been here, do you know?"

Li Wei nodded, and when Yang Ying left, the room became quiet again, but Li Weizheng's heart was in chaos. Yes! What he wanted to do in the future? It has been almost twenty days since he came to Daming. This problem seems to be getting more and more urgent. He used to major in industrial economy, majoring in Wan Essential Oils, and was addicted to various games in college. Even Wan Essential Oils did not apply any of them. After graduation, he couldn't find a job. Fortunately, he was a local, and his parents asked for favors to find him a job in a securities company. His monthly salary was 1,800 yuan, and he had no house or car. He squeezed into two rooms with his parents and brothers.

There was not even a girlfriend in the bungalow of the old alley, but unexpectedly, he won the grand prize. Just when he was ambitious, he suddenly had a heart attack and died. Although God pleaded with mercy, he was reborn in the early Ming Dynasty, what could he do? He could not invent any advanced technology. Several Tang poems and Song lyrics that he had finally remembered were already known to everyone in the era. It seemed that he still remembered something like "self-shot to the sky" and "I advise the heaven to shake again", but what is the meaning of this? He couldn't even memorize the Four Books and Five Classics. In addition to proving that he likes to plagiarize, would anyone still admire him?

‘The four bodies are not diligent, and the grains are not divided.’ Li Wei was sighing, but he asked him to be a country landlord, marry a warm kang wife, and have a bunch of pig babies. He was unwilling to accept it. This was Zhu Yuanzhang’s era! He knew that the Li Shanchang case would break out next year, and there would be the Lan Yu case in a few years, and then the King of Yan Zhu Di and his nephew competed for the world. The historical context was clearly imprinted in his mind. Can he integrate into this history? But even if he wanted to integrate, where should he start? Should he run to Zhu Di like a fool and say, ‘I know you can be the emperor in the future, let me be your counselor!’

Even if Zhu Di didn't kill him, Zhu Yuanzhang would peel him off. Li Wei was hesitant for a moment. At this moment, he suddenly heard Yang Ying's vicious voice coming from outside, "To be honest, how much did you steal my mother?"

"Madam, I have said it a few times, and I only got five hundred stale points."

"Hmph! Is it still less than 500 guan? Our family only earns more than 1,000 guan a year, so you really want to bear it!"

"My wife calms down, there is nothing we can do. I respect County Magistrate Li, take care of Master Ma, and invite all the yamen runners to dinner. All of this costs money. Besides, if he goes out, aren't you feeling comfortable? I'm doing this for your own good!

"Hmph! It's better than singing. Just this time, I dare to steal my mother's money next time. Let's see how I deal with you."

"Yes! Yes! Yes! Don't worry, Madam, I will never dare to do it again for my husband next time."

Li Weizheng seemed to understand what his father meant, as if he had found him an errand. It was good that he didn't understand the Four Books and Five Classics. It was best not to take the exam for scholars. When the curtain was lifted, Mr. Li walked in. When he saw his son getting out of bed, he was so scared that he waved his hands repeatedly, "Go up! Go up!"

"The child is tired of lying down and wants to walk." Li Wei's feet touched the ground, and suddenly he was spinning, his body shaking and about to fall. Mr. Li hurriedly supported his son. He also remembered the instructions of Doctor Gao, and walked more and his body would be better.

"Okay! Dad helps you go."

Mr. Li helped his son slowly walk out of the room, passed through a small door, and came to a large yard. This was the first time Li Weizheng saw his home. In his imagination, the landlord's house must have a wide courtyard, and it was a sight to go around. There were rockery ponds and fish everywhere, and various pavilions and towers were hidden among the green trees and red flowers. But the situation in the yard in front of him made him a little stunned. Rice stems were piled up all over the corner of the yard, and more than a dozen large baskets filled with millet were placed in the middle of the yard. Several village farmers were standing in front of the large basket and beat rice. What made him even more incredible was that there was a vegetable field in one corner of the yard, and two melon sheds were building, and a hen and a group of chickens were leisurely looking for food in the yard. This was not a landlord's house, it was clearly a farmyard.

Seeing that he was stunned, Li Yuanwai pointed to Luocang and smiled: "The county will be paid in a few days, and the family is preparing! This is a major event every year."

"What is my father asking me for errand?" Li Weizheng suddenly asked.

"How do you know?" Mr. Li blinked his eyes, and he immediately understood that it must be his son who heard it in the room. His face turned slightly red and said, "Dad asked someone to find you an errand in the county government office, and went there to learn how people are in the world. In recent years, you have been stupid."

‘County government,’ means that he wants to be a civil servant?
