o say it isn't ugly enough, clearly showing that she doesn't respect her own young mistress on weekdays.""All the maidservants are watching the mistress's every move, I reckon this concubine sees the...Li Ge nodded, he also understood this reason, it was just that he couldn't bear to part with his younger brother.

But the younger brother can't hide behind them forever; he has to grow up eventually...

At this time, two young masters walked in from outside. Seeing the mess here, they were very surprised and asked: "What are you doing Is the academy going on holiday"

If it were a good voice here, it would surely recognize it immediately.

They were the two young masters who reached out and helped Baozhu when she was being treated.

"Jiarren bowed in greeting, smiling and saying, 'There are some family matters to attend to, so my younger brother and I are planning to take a few months off from school. We were going to come find you all soon, but it seems you arrived first.' "

Li Ge'er was also busy pouring tea and said, "Brother Jia, Brother Lu, have some tea."

Jia Xu patted his shoulder, "Since the two of you are leaving, what about Mao Ge'er Will he be coming back to Suijin Beach with us too"

Last time, Jia Xu went back to celebrate his grandmother's birthday and witnessed Jia Yin saving her cousin and generously teaching them the secret techniques for saving people. He thought the Li family was a good family.

Thus, after returning to the academy, he took the initiative to get acquainted with Jia Ren and his two brothers. They spent a lot of time together these days and became very close.

Li Ge looked towards his elder brother, and Jia Ren said: "Jia Brother, you've only been back to the academy for a few days, so you probably don't know, our family has a small fleet of boats that frequently travels between Xin Du and Quanzhou, transporting seafood and such.

“Our family has plans to let me and Li Ge'er go south this time to broaden our horizons. The headmaster of the academy has also arranged a merchant vessel with guards and sailors, intending to travel with us and bring some students to Quanzhou to engage in academic exchanges with the local academies.”

Going to Quanzhou

Jia Xu and Lu Zhongliang's eyes lit up. Jia Xu chased after, "Has the roster for the academy been finalized I wonder if there's room to add people, I want to go too!"

Jiarren shook his head, "Our family's fishing boat is dirty, cramped, and my brother Li and I have to go out to work. So we don't need a spot at the academy. As for how they arrange the academy's passenger boats, I haven't asked."

Jia Xu looked at Lu Cong, "What about you, Brother Lu, do you want to go to Quanzhou Should we ask the Dean for help"

Lu Cong smiled and said, "Good idea. I've been traveling outside these past two years to study and learn. It would be nice to see the seaside as well."

Jia Xu excitedly pulled him up and, after a quick greeting, hurried away.

Li Ge'er whispered, "Big brother, that Mr. Lu doesn't seem to be an ordinary person, does he"

Jia Ren patted him and said, "It doesn't matter who he is. He has nothing to do with our family. We only look at character when making friends, not background."

Li Ge nodded, remembering that he had to go home tomorrow, so his men worked even harder.

Just as the two brothers had finished tidying up, Jiarong’s servant Gou'er came running in with Zhengliu, Lig'er’s servant, both of them looking very happy.

Gousheng shouted, "Young Master, Sixth Young Master, someone has come to the house. They are talking with Third Grandpa in the dining hall. It seems to be Young Masters Jiaxi and Ji anjing back from the city. Old Madam misses you, so she wants you, Sixth Young Master, and Seventh Young Master to go home early."

Jiarren and Ligger were both happy to hear this. It's harder for brothers to get together as they grow older.

Jiā Xǐ and Jiā n were sent to learn their skills, and it's been half a month since they left. They miss home dearly.

Thinking this way, the two brothers hurried to the canteen. After hearing the news, Jiarren went to ask the teacher for leave and then picked up Maoguer from class and packed his luggage.

Li Lao San and Zhao Yu Ru also arranged the work in the canteen, and then, taking their children with them, they hurried back to Suijin Beach.

The sun was setting, and twilight was deepening.

The little courtyard of Li's house was filled with the aroma of food.

Rarely did Li Lao Si return from the military camp, and his son was also at home. Tao Hongying cooked several more good dishes.

Jia Yin brought the little fox and, following Shui Ling, went to sit on a big tree at the village entrance to watch.

One master, one servant, and one fox sat in a row, eating fruit, which made the passersby laugh constantly.

Jia'an and Jiaxi came down from the mountains, of course they also wanted to join in the fun. In a few moves, they climbed up the tree, divided two fruits, and chatted with their younger sister while munching on them.

"Sister, you don't know, the master who taught us the foreign language is amazing. If you didn't look at his face, you'd think a foreigner was speaking." Jia An seemed to admire the master very much, his eyes shining as he spoke.

Jiaxi also nodded in agreement, saying, “Yes, the master said that when he was young, he went to a foreign country. He also told us that if we ever go there, don't be lured away by white-breasted fairies!”

"Cough! Cough! Cough!" Shui Ling suddenly started coughing violently, startling Jia An and Jia Xi. They quickly rushed to help her pat her back, afraid she would choke.

Jia Yin naturally knew why Shuiling interrupted her two brothers, but she could only pretend to be clueless.

Shuiling let out a sigh of relief as she watched the little master happily nibble on fruit, and quietly relaxed.

Fortunately, the carriage from home arrived at this moment.

The little cat poked its head out the car window and waved frantically at its older siblings.

Jia'an and Jiaxi hugged each other tightly, jumped down from the big tree, and ran towards him.

Soon, the brothers successfully reunited, laughing and jumping, extremely lively and close.

Li Ge'er and Mao Ge'er argued, asking their elder brothers what skills they had learned.

Jiarren carried the chubby younger sister behind him, smiling and listening.

Li Laosan and Zhao Yuru didn't disturb the children reminiscing until they got out of the car in front of the house.

The tranquil Li family courtyard suddenly became lively as the young boys returned.

Grandma Li laughed so hard her mouth could barely close, urging them to add more dishes. She wished she could make up for all the good food her grandchildren had missed while they were away from home with just one meal.

Zhao Yuru rolled up her sleeves and went to the kitchen, chatting with Tao Hongying while frying and cooking.

In a short while, Li Zhensheng heard that his sons were back and rushed over with Jiayi, Jiahuan, and Liu Yang to join the festivities.

Liu Yang said a few words, brought a plate of braised pork back to his own house and left.

Leaving behind the Li family, plus Mr. and Mrs. Wen, there were nearly twenty people of all ages, making it a lively scene.

Uncle Zhao, several others, and Dr. Zhang were also invited over. The village head and his wife were also invited, so Hui-niang had stewed some meat today and invited them over early.

At this moment, the elderly couple is playing with their chubby grandson and certainly won't come over.

As always, two tables were set up for the feast. The men sat at one table and the women at the other.

But when the boys all went home, the men's table became a bit too crowded.

Thus, Brother Li and Brother Mao joined the women's table.

The little cat eats happily, its chopsticks are almost flying.

Although Li Ge'er had the reputation of a talented scholar, he was just a child at home and didn't feel wronged sitting at the women's table.

He smiled and nestled beside his grandmother, eating and telling her about the academy while she listened with delight, her eyes sparkling with happiness.

Women don't drink, they eat quickly, and once the table is cleared, they gather together to chat.

When it came to the topic, Jia Ren and Li Ge'er's trip to Quanzhou, Li Laotai said: “Winter is approaching soon. The south is warm. It’s best to stay there for two months and return before the Lunar New Year.”

Mrs. Wen smiled and said, “Yes, I heard that it’s still green everywhere during winter there, with plenty of fruits and vegetables all year round. When I have the chance, I also want to go see it for myself.”

"Great, great, Shigu. Take me with you then!" Jia Yin was eager to try. It's just that she was too young, otherwise she would have gone long ago.

Old Li tried to speak again, but Meow-er suddenly leaped into her arms and burst into tears...

Here are three more chapters for you!iver something. She greeted Mr. and Mrs. Li Laosan and then passed them without further interaction.Qiong's wife moved down quite a bit of chicken, fish, meat and eggs, which made Li Lao scold: "How c...
