“The situation this time is different from before.”
“Besides, it won’t be long before the new year comes.”
“You’ve wasted too much time at the capital this time. Mother and the others miss you very much.”
Li Xiao looked at Lin Xiaoyue.
“Moreover, Master…”
Not long ago, his master had sent him a jade pendant with a letter, asking him to return it to his mother-in-law.
After that, he guessed something.
Master had already said that he would be going to Daishi Village for the New Year this year.
As such, he could not take his wife home.
Lin Xiaoyue looked at Li Xiao.
A smile appeared on her face as she thought of something.
“I’m afraid you can’t call him master in the future.”
Li Xiao was stunned.
“You have to call him grandpa.” Lin Xiaoyue said.
The Imperial Advisor had not told this guy the truth?
Why was he so reluctant to let go of this disciple?
Li Xiao’s eyes moved slightly but quickly returned to normal.
“Aren’t you surprised?” Lin Xiaoyue asked curiously.
Li Xiao smiled. “I had some guesses before.”
Earlier, Fan Ming had mentioned that his master had gone to the Zhou Manor to look for his daughter.
And his mother-in-law’s age should be about the same age as his master’s daughter.
With the existence of that jade pendant, it was not difficult to guess.
There were really no coincidences in this world.
Who would have thought that the wife he met after escaping thousands of miles was actually the granddaughter of his master?
Thinking of this, Li Xiao increased his strength and pulled his wife into his arms again.
Lin Xiaoyue did not struggle. She shifted her position and found a more comfortable position to lie down.
“According to the previous seniority, you are my uncle.”
Li Xiao was stunned.
“What? Tomorrow, I will go see my master and ask him to expel me. You’re my wife. That won’t change for the rest of your life!” He then said.
After saying that, he turned over and gave Lin Xiaoyue a wolf kiss.
Lin Xiaoyue was kissed until she was confused. She wanted to refute, but she couldn’t say it.
After tormenting Lin Xiaoyue for a while, Li Xiao finally controlled himself and let go of Lin Xiaoyue.
Looking at her man’s restrained eyes, Lin Xiaoyue suddenly had courage.
She stretched out her arms and wrapped them around the back of Li Xiao’s neck.
“Hubby…”
Li Xiao’s heart skipped a beat. He could no longer control himself and pressed down.
The next day.
By the time she dragged her exhausted body to the compilation room, many students had already arrived and were waiting for her.
Everyone saw that their teacher didn’t seem to be in a good state today, so no one dared to ask.
As for Lin Xiaoyue, after entering the room, she quickly adjusted her state of mind and began today’s teaching.
She was a little angry. She was angry at Li Xiao for not knowing how to control himself…
Forget it, he couldn’t be entirely blamed for this.
At the same time, unlike Lin Xiaoyue, Li Xiao went to the bamboo garden in a good mood.
Liu Wuji was a little puzzled when he saw that his disciple was in a good mood today.
After explaining the situation to Li Xiao, he started chatting with him.
“Are the people of Daishi Village doing well?” He asked Li Xiao. He actually wanted to ask if his daughter, Ling Long, was doing well.
After they parted that year, she had already become the mother of two children.
She might even become a grandmother soon.
He wanted to see his daughter, but unfortunately, he could not leave now.
Li Xiao glanced at Liu Wuji and saw through his thoughts.
“Everything is fine. Mother-in-law is healthy, but she misses Yue’er very much.” Li Xiao said.
Then, as if he had thought of something, he said, “the jade pendant, she cherished it very much after receiving it. 1 heard that she takes it out to look at it from time to time.”
Liu Wuji’s expression changed.
Soon, he suppressed his emotions.
“Yes.”
“Master…” Li Xiao saw this and wanted to say something but stopped.
Liu Wuji frowned and looked at Li Xiao.
“In the future, call me grandpa.” He finally said.
He had already guessed it, yet he still addressed him as his master.
Li Xiao was delighted.
“Yes, grandpa!” He quickly said.
Only then did Liu Wuji’s expression improve a little.
“The compilation of the Arithmetic Book went smoothly. The Emperor was also very satisfied after reading it. By next year, it will probably be distributed to the various academies for the students to learn.”
“I estimate that Yue’er should be able to complete her work in another seven to eight days.”
Li Xiao nodded.
“Originally, after Yue’er is done here, you can send her back to Daishi Village and then set off for Chu Country. You can make it in time..”
