C118 (2/2)

Li Jun said, ”Tomorrow, you all will have to get up early and hurry on your way. Don't do anything.” Only after a good rest would the road be full of energy. Being at home was easy, but going out was hard. All of you must remember not to fight or tangle along the way. The chivalrous acts should be restrained temporarily. Don't meddle in anything that happens. We need to find relatives. ”

Lee Yanyi respected her uncle's orders and went to rest. Seeing that the sky was dark, Li Jun also asked the servant to close the door and go to bed.

When she returned to her room, she was secretly delighted. Ever since she had heard of the news of Ji Jie, she had been yearning with all her heart. She grew more and more excited as she lay in bed and began to imagine Jay's handsome appearance.

Very soon, the figures of a few prodigies appeared before her. As she rejoiced, she said in her heart, ”Yuan Ming said he is extremely handsome. He must look like that.”

The more she thought about it, the happier she became, and the more urgent her mood became. And then he thought, ”Brother's worries are not without reason. Can Dongfang Yijie wait for me? ”Then will he …” She was also worried that Li Qian would find it difficult to hold on to her soul, causing her to be unable to calm down. The turn of events was clear, and the meaning of the process of recovery was endless. He hated the long night and could not sleep.

Daybreak. Li Qian's eyes were sleepy, and her face was flushed. He hurriedly got up, dressed up, and prepared to leave. That was it: more than one person. When they first started, they all had a gentle heart.

Li Yanxiang slept all night and felt good when she woke up in the morning. He thought that he had to straighten out his parents' wishes and achieve his sister's marriage. His mood was exceptionally good. Dressed neatly, he immediately came to bid Yuan Ming farewell.

When he arrived at the Kun Yu Tang Inn, he saw that Yuan Ming's room was locked. Doubtful, he came to the waiter and asked, ”Where is Yuan Ming? How did he get out so early? ”

The assistant took out the silver dollar bag that Yuan Ming had left for Lee Yanyi and said, ”Yuan Ming got up as soon as dawn broke. Thank you, boss, for paying back the restaurant's money and leaving with Empyrean Hua.”

Lee Yanyi said anxiously, ”He left without saying anything!”

The assistant continued, ”He said that due to an urgent matter, he could not meet with you. He asked me to convey his intention to leave. Before leaving, he told me to pass this package to you. Young Master Li, no need to be anxious. He said that you will meet again in the future. You've seen what he left you, so you might be able to guess his intentions. ”

Lee Yanyi took the package and saw that it was wrapped in satin. He unwrapped it and looked inside it. There were some silver coins and a piece of paper attached to it. Lee Yanyi picked up the paper and saw the words, ”Brother Li Yan: Yuan Ming pays his respects.” He couldn't say goodbye to her in person because he was in a hurry. The three hundred silver taels are to be worshipped by my little brother. I hope that my little sister can get married soon and everything will go well. We'll meet again in the future! ” Lee Yanyi packed his bag, asked the time of departure and was about to go after them. The assistant said, ”Young Master Li, calm down. ”It doesn't matter how long or how long he's been there; if you don't know where he's going, how are you going to catch up with him?”

Helplessly, Lee Yanyi bade farewell to the shop assistant and left. As he was walking hurriedly on the street, he rushed towards Li Qian. Li Qian said, ”Brother, Uncle has something to tell you. He is urging you to go back.”

Lee Yanyi was at a loss of what to do. He could only quickly return home with Li Qian. Lee Yanyi told Lee Zhan Yi about Yuan Ming leaving the Yin Yuan. Li Jun also felt a wave of regret. Lee Yanyi handed the silver taels to his uncle.

Li Zhaoyi said, ”As the saying goes, the poor are at home, the rich are on the road. In case there was not enough money to pay for it, he was short of money. You can all bring it. ” Lee Yanyi kept the silver taels in his bag.

Li Jiayi continued, ”Yesterday, when I heard the news, I was so happy that I forgot something. There must also be a certificate to go. Back then at Yanming Temple, when our families engaged to each other, we had written a contract. The paper was written by Gao Lianbo. Do you know? ”

Li Yao said, ”It's all thanks to Uncle's reminder. There are also documents that were given to me by the elder of Yanming Temple on his deathbed. It was also him who told me about our marriage with the Dongfang family. I was afraid that the rain would get wet and spread the handwriting, so I put the 'engagement' in the picking tube. We even saw it many times when we walked along the streets, and it's still in good condition. ”

Li Zhaoyi said happily, ”It's good that you have the credentials. Quickly, bring them over for me to see.” Lee Yanyi went to get the bamboo tube and opened one end. He poured out a roll of faded red paper and handed it over to Lee Jianyi. When Li Jun opened it up to look, she saw that the black characters were clearly written on it. Write: ”Engagement.”

When he looked further down, he saw the witnesses Dongliang Liang, Li Zhouao, Gao Lianbo and Yan Ming Temple Elder. The contents of the documents were very clear.

Li Zhaoyi said happily, ”With it here, it will prove our Li Clan's loyalty. Dongfang Liang saw it and understood our intention to marry. It's only natural for you to do business there, and it's easier for you to save effort. You must keep it well. ”

Li Yuan took the engagement, folded it into a square, and put it into his undergarment pocket. Li Jiayi instructed them with a few more words. Lee Yanyi took it along with her, and Lee Yanyi and a female servant walked out of the room. Only then did the two of them bid farewell to their uncle and left for Chaozhou.

Let's not talk about how Lee Yanyi travelled, but the relationship between the Lee family and the Dongfang family and the origin of the engagement. So it was the Li family elders and brothers. The eldest brother was Lee Yanyi's father, Li Zhaoao. Li's second brother, Li Huayi, and his third brother, Li Guanyi. Li Huayi and Li Zhaoyi were twins. The two looked very much alike.

The Li family's three brothers were sworn brothers with Dong Fang Liang and Gao Lian Bo. Amongst the sworn brothers, Li Jiagao was the eldest brother, Dongfang Mingxing was the elder brother, Gao Lian was the elder brother, Li Hua was the fourth brother, and Li Zhaoyi was the younger brother. ”The five of them were like a family in their teens. They had a tacit understanding of each other and were inseparable from each other.

Then the five of them joined the Boxer League. They were furious when they saw the corrupt officials, the poor citizens, and the rampant foreigners! The aim is to expel foreigners and help Daqing.
