《Family Property》Episode 1 plot introduction
During the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, the streets of Huizhou were very lively, with an endless stream of merchants coming from the south and the north, and street stalls lined up in rows.At this time, a young and pretty girl was walking on the street. She was Li Jian, the youngest daughter of Li Mo's eighth room. Looking at this familiar scene, she couldn't help but fall into memories.At that time, the imperial court sent officials to select ink painters, and the four major ink-making families in Huizhou, Li, Luo, Chen, and Pan, all participated in the competition. The Li Mo and Luo Mo families each had their own merits, and it was difficult to distinguish them.Li Jian, who was still young, proposed a new selection method. In the end, after a rigorous competition, Li Mo won and won the right to pay tribute to the imperial court. The chief selector, Mr. Huang, came to celebrate in person. The Li family made preparations with great sincerity. The female relatives of each house were busy in the kitchen with their servants.
The Li family has been making ink for generations, and there are currently six, seven, and eight rooms. Wang Ru, the old lady of the seventh room, governs the Li family, and Li Jinshui, the eighth room of the Li family, is responsible for the ink-making technology.According to the order of Li family heirlooms, there should be seven heads of the Li family. Wang Rujun is now old and is ready to pass the headship to his son Jing Qi. In addition, Li Mo has won the honor of tribute, which can be said to be a double blessing.Master Huang sincerely congratulated the Li family on their many happy events, but he also repeatedly told the old lady to arrange the manpower properly to send Gongmo to the capital.Wang Rujun arranged for Jingdong, Jingqi and Jingfu from the sixth, seventh and eighth rooms to lead a team and personally escort Gong Mo to Beijing.When they come back, they will pass the title of head of the family to Jing Qi.
The adults were busy discussing important matters, while Li Zhenze was having a great time with his friends. Luo Wenqian was the second son of Luo Hanzhang, the head of the Luo Mo family. He was raised in the capital since he was a child. Luo Hanzhang hoped that he would be able to take the exam, so he had very strict requirements for him.When he returned to Huizhou, he was bullied by a group of naughty boys. Li Zhen stepped forward to fight against the injustice and rescued Luo Wenqian. However, she asked Luo Wenqian to do something for her as a thank you.It turned out that the naughty Li Jian was going to steal melons with his friends, and Luo Wenqian's duty was to watch the melons. As soon as the melon watchers came over, Luo Wenqian hurriedly reminded Li Jian to escape with his friends, but he still stubbornly said that they were not stealing melons, but touching the melons.
Li Jian took Luo Wenqian back home and found that his arm was injured, so he took out his rouge ink to apply it on him and gave the rest to him.The two discussed the future together, and Li Jian said that he would be a master of ink making in the future and carry forward Li Mo.Luo Wenqian said that he did not want to immerse himself in studying to obtain fame, but just wanted to walk around and see the scenery and appreciate different customs.The Li family gathered together and began to test the juniors' ability to recognize Mo. Only Li Zhen answered quickly and well.Grandma Qi held Li Jian in her arms lovingly.After Luo Wenqian was brought back by his father, he was scolded severely and blamed him for not going to play with Li Zhen.
Today is the day when Jingdong, Jing Qi and Jing Fu return from sending tribute ink. Mrs. Wang Rujun and her family gathered at the dock early to wait for the return of sending ink.But the scene on board was miserable.Jingdong and Jingfu were covered in scars, while Jingqi simply died in the capital.It turned out that on the night when he was on duty in Jingfu, he drank some wine. When he woke up, he found that a raging fire had started in Gongmo and burned it completely.The court was furious and punished them, throwing the three brothers into prison to be tortured every day. Jingqi's body couldn't bear it and she died. In the end, it was Master Huang's mediation that allowed them to return.When something like this happened, Li Jinshui felt speechless and had no choice but to take his room and eliminate the clan in accordance with family rules.
