directed at him was not what a one-year-old should be subjected to...Jia Yin wasn't afraid of being seen through. She had already made up her mind when she decided to sell medicine.She was just a litt...It's customary for the family to be like this, with everyone doing their own thing. But Li Ge'er and Mao Ge'er are seeing this for the first time.
Over a hundred people were bustling about both inside and outside the courtyard, laughter echoing everywhere.
The kitchen was filled with steam, and there were constant shouts from people inside. It was even more lively than Chinese New Year.
Meowge followed Jia'an and Jiaxi as they ran around. Some villagers found pig bladder, blew them into round shapes, and threw them for the children to play with.
This caused the children to go crazy, they all rushed to the front of the courtyard door, chasing each other, causing a ruckus.
The once pale and skinny Cat-er, now drenched in sweat from running around, was so thirsty that he couldn't bear it any longer. He returned to the eaves of the corridor and gulped down a bowl of warm water. Then, with his face flushed red, he rejoined the soccer team.
Li Zhensheng had never seen his youngest son like this before, a mix of worry and joy on his face.
On the other hand, Li Ge sat beside his father, smiling softly and whispering to him, "Father, it's good to be home."
Li Zhensheng was on the verge of tears, if he said that he had gone to great lengths to ruin Wang Jia's reputation and make Wang E a laborer, he would not regret it at all.
The only concern was the two sons; they had grown up in the Wang family after all, and Wang E was their biological mother.
But now that his son said this, he could finally rest assured, bringing them back to the Li family was the right thing to do.
At this time, Liu Biaotou brought Li Laosan's family and Jiaren back.
It was evident that they had left last night, waiting at the city gate. As soon as it opened, they dashed through the city and back.
Several people had dark circles under their eyes and looked haggard.
But Li Lao San rushed to the eaves of the corridor as soon as he entered the courtyard, threw himself at his elder brother's legs and burst into tears.
"Big brother, big brother! Wah wah, you suffered so much, why didn't you tell us! Wah wah, big brother, those people are heartless, how could they bully you to this extent!"
He called out "Big brother" again and again, making everyone's heart ache.
Zhao Yuru stood aside wiping her tears, Jia Ren and Jia Huan knelt on either side of Li Zhensheng, “Uncle, you suffered!”
Li Zhensheng patted his younger brother and nephews, also unable to hold back his tears, "Don't cry, I'm back, aren't I Those things are all in the past. From now on, let's live a good life as a family!"
"Big brother, I want to kill them, I want to dig up the Wang family's ancestral graves!" Li Lao San was an honest person, to be able to say such words, he must be incredibly angry.
Li Lao Si quickly stepped forward, helping his elder brother persuade him, "Third Brother, Mother cried very hard yesterday and her body isn't doing well. We can't upset her anymore! If you have something to say, let's talk privately later. Today is a good day for the family to reunite and be happy."
Li Laosan quickly raised his head to look, sure enough, his busy mother picking vegetables was wiping tears again. He hurriedly got up and wiped away her tears.
Zhao Yuru also ran to take over her mother-in-law's tasks, "Mother, you just accompany your elder brother in conversation, I'll do these chores. Madam Cui and they will be here soon, you have to receive them!"
Just as he spoke, a carriage arrived outside the door.
Mrs. Cui, Mr. Wen, and even Liu Ziheng had come, they too, as always, never arrived empty-handed.
On the carriage, there were several large baskets filled with ingredients such as chicken, fish, meat, and eggs. There were also a few boxes of snacks and treats for the children.
Villagers stepped forward to greet each other, helping to carry things. The children also clapped and cheered, and the courtyard was once again lively.
Mr. Wen and others were also outside the government office yesterday, but they didn't want to show their faces. Today, when they saw Li Zhensheng, the first thing they asked was about his condition.
It is said that without fear for their lives, they only feel relieved after raising them for a year and a half.
Jiayin was held in Mrs. Cui's arms for a while, then sat on Mr. Wen's lap, and turned her head to be fed snacks by Liu Zhiheng. She was so happy that she was dizzy with happiness.
Finally, she held her burgeoning belly, leaning against Ye Gongzi's leg, yawning softly.
The village was so lively, it couldn't help but attract attention. My mind wandered, and I couldn't help but want to join in the commotion.
Moreover, Jia An and Jia Xi had taken leave, so there were fewer people in the mountains than usual.
A customer ordered some tea, but it took a long time to arrive. He couldn't help complaining, "What's going on Where is everyone"
Someone replied, "I heard that there was a banquet at a villager's house today, so everyone must have gone."
"Yes, as I passed by in the morning, I heard noises like pigs and sheep being slaughtered."
The crowd buzzed with gossip, and when the young man approached, they pulled him aside to ask him a few questions.
"The young fellow chuckled and replied, 'Auntie Li's long-lost uncle who disappeared over ten years ago has returned safely! Auntie Li is hosting a banquet to celebrate the family reunion. At noon, dishes from the mountain valley will be delivered from the village – no payment needed. Auntie Li says she wants everyone to share a meal together and celebrate the good fortune so that Uncle Li can recover soon.'"
Among the guests were some who had witnessed the commotion yesterday and recalled Li Zhensheng spitting blood. Concerned, they inquired, “Has a doctor been called to treat Master Li at home”
Before the young man could reply, the other guests chimed in, "Don't you know There's a divine doctor right here at Suijin Beach. He must have seen it, but who knows what the outcome is"
The young man then said, "Dr. Zhang said that Old Li's illness has dragged on too long and is difficult to cure completely, but with proper medication and care, there shouldn't be a problem in a year and a half."
A year and a half
Everyone sighed in hushed tones, although the outcome was better than they had imagined, it was a pity that Mr. Li, such a good man, only had half a year to live.
"Oh, what bad luck!"
"Yes, but Sir Li is finally back home and has found his wife. With a year and a half of companionship, he must be overjoyed."
"Yeah, I'm afraid that if they can't find their family before they get sick and die, that would be too pitiful."
A buzz of discussion filled the air, with some people unclear about yesterday's events and listening intently to the full story from beginning to end. They couldn't help but join in condemning the Wang family for their actions.
In Xindu, Li Laoer brought Wang Fu and successfully sold the Wang family's courtyard at a 20% discount.
When he went to the local government office to exchange his deed, he took the opportunity to change the names of his older brother and his two sons, registering them under the Li family's household roster.
The people in the yamen naturally knew Li Lao Er, and they didn't give him any trouble. They kept asking about Mr. Li's condition.
Li Lao Er also brought out the phrase "one and a half years," which made everyone sigh.
When it was time to leave, Li Lao Er gave ten taels of silver as a hardship allowance, but no one was willing to accept it.
Li Lao Er was unable to, and bought some more snacks and fruits to send back.
After finishing all of that, Ye Shan actually came over. Seeing Li Lao Er, he said, "Second Master, our Hou Mansion has some matters, I need to go to the village to see the Marquis and bring you back together"
"Certainly," said Li Lao'er, leading Wang Fu towards the carriage. But Wang Fu waved his hand and said, "Master Two, I shall return to my humble abode in the west of the city first. Master's belongings are there, and I must guard them. If Master has any orders, please ask someone to seek me at my residence in the west of the city."
"Alright, you've worked hard." Li Lao Er bid farewell to Wang Fu and got in the car with Ye Shan to head back.
He was worried that there might be an urgent matter at the Marquis's residence, so he asked, "The Marquis's injury hasn't fully healed yet, it wouldn't be good to trouble him. If there's anything we can help with, please be sure to tell us."
"Don't worry, Second Master, it's just a small matter." Ye Shan smiled and replied, reaching out to touch the bulging envelope in his chest. He couldn't help but envy the Li family a little.
