The Hong family ranks third among the four major families in Jincheng. Hong Man and Li Pei also married for the benefit of the two families. Hong Man, who ca from a family of warriors, was already a second-level innate warrior, only one level below Li Pei. Coupled with her gentle and generous temperant, she was highly respected in Li Mansion.
As the head matron of the Li Mansion, the courtyard where Hong Man lived was naturally different from others. It was an independent three-entry courtyard with a high-level protective array. Even strong n of the ninth level innate warrior couldn’t break in by force.
When Li Tianyan entered, Hong Man was already sitting at the main seat of the hall. An invisible sense of oppression enveloped Li Tianyan, making him frown slightly. It seed that the difference between innate warriors and acquired warriors was significant.
After circulating spiritual power in his body, the pressure on Li Tianyan eased. He took a few steps forward, cupped his fists, and saluted, “I have t Madam.”
Hong Man was a little surprised by Li Tianyan’s reaction today but showed no emotion on her face. She motioned to the nanny beside her to serve tea and said, “Sit down.”
“Yesterday, I heard soone say that you went to the training ground to compete with others. It seems that your health is fully recovered. When did you start practicing martial arts? I haven’t heard you ntion it before.” Hong Man asked Li Tianyan with a caring tone.
“I just learned a little bit; it’s not worth ntioning.” Li Tianyan sat down below Hong Man’s seat and spoke in a relaxed tone.
“You can injure Li Hong at least twice. It’s not superficial wounds. But Li Hong is your cousin, and your attack was too harsh.”
“Yes, according to the madam said, the next ti I will be more careful.” Li Tianyan replied calmly.
Hong Man was suddenly blocked and speechless. She changed the subject and said, “Why didn’t I see you and Cheng Qi coming together? I know you don’t like him, but since his is your wife now, he will be with you in the future. Get along well with him.”
“Originally, I should have brought him to greet Madam, but the day before yesterday, Sixth sister went to Jingxin Hall and gave him a whip for no apparent reason. He is still recovering from his injuries, and it is inconvenient to co to see Madam.” Li Tianyan said, his eyes falling on the door curtain in the main room.
The smile on Hong Man’s face froze slightly after hearing this. “I saw you suddenly fell ill that day, which made
feel uncomfortable. In a fit of anger, I sent Cheng Qi to the Jingxin Hall. I didn’t expect that this girl Xiao Wan would be so impulsive. Don’t bla her.”
Li Tianyan secretly sighed Hong Man’s ethics were much better than that of Cheng Si. She actually ntioned Li Wan’s beating as if she was concerned about him and vented her anger for him. “Madam, you are too serious. It’s just… Cheng Qi’s body is weak, and I need to take good care of him for a while now. If Madam feels sorry for him, just give
a few thousand taels so I can buy so good things to make up for his injuries.”
This ti, Madam Li didn’t speak yet, but Li Wan rushed out first, “Why should I give you money? You also severely injured Li Hong yesterday, why didn’t you pay him money? You can’t just make us lost thousands of taels for that ugly monster.”
“Li Hong and I were seriously fighting in the training ground. Sixth sister is also a warrior. Don’t you understand the rules of the fighting ground? Moreover, my wife was married to
by Madam. Is he so ugly? Are you blaming Madam for her bad taste?” Li Tianyan looked at Li Wan in confusion.
“Okay, stop talking.” Hong Man’s voice interrupted Li Wan, who was still wanting to speak. This girl just couldn’t hold her breath.
“Mother Liu, go in and get fifty taels of silver for the third young master.”
“Mother.” When Li Wan heard this, she stamped her feet in displeasure.
Hong Man only said to Li Tianyan, “Tianyan, don’t expect too much. Cheng’er went to Tianfan Immortal Sect and our Li Mansion benefited from it, Cheng’er spent a lot of money buying spiritual stones for cultivation. So, I don’t have much money here now.”
Li Tianyan thought for a while and considered that, although fifty taels were indeed a little less, it was still better than nothing. “Then thank you, madam.” He walked over to get it.
Returning with a hairpin and fifty taels of silver, Li Tianyan considered it quite a bargain. He took the silver, weighed it in front of Li Wan, then bid farewell to Madam Li and left.
.
As soon as Li Tianyan left, Li Wan held Hong Man’s hand unhappily and complained, “Mom, why are you so nice to him? Since soone wants his life, why did you save him?”
“What do you know, little girl? That woman Yin Rong is dead, but Li Tianyan dying easily is too cheap.” Hong Man would never forget when she was in labor, that woman Yin Rong used tricks to keep Li Pei with her.
Li Pei gave that concubine son the na Li Tianyan when he was born. Did he want him to continue the incense of the Li family? On the contrary, it was his Cheng’er who was obviously the legitimate son of the Li family, but Li Pei didn’t even take it seriously. And the na was just sothing he wrote down casually. If she hadn’t moved out his family’s power, Li Pei would never change it to Tiancheng in the end.
She wanted to keep Li Tianyan alive and showed Li Pei how his favorite son had beco a waste. But the strange thing was Li Tianyan took red spiritual grass and was lucky enough not to beco disabled. He looked like a normal person and could still go to the training ground to fight soone. Yet, she always felt that sothing was wrong here.
