Chapter 19: Old Things!
Chapter 19: Old Things!
Unfilial sons are everywhere, and mothers who do not cherish their children are rare.
Li Yan understood his wife's feelings, reached out and patted her on the shoulder, signaling her not to be angry because of this, and said: "You treat the shepherd as a son, and I will not treat him as a son? Shepherding and missing, what is the difference between biological and parental care in our hearts?"
"But you also know that shepherding sheep is the blood of the Lu family after all. At that time, they thought that the shepherd had no chance of life after being struck by lightning, and they were worried that he was a deformed child, so they staged the drama of changing the tanuki for the prince. In order to avoid the incident from being known, I forced you and me to leave Tiandu overnight and leave Jiangnan. At that time, you didn't want to change people, so who wants to give away your newborn daughter to someone else? But in the end, don't we have to agree?"
When they found out that the shepherd was still alive, they turned their attention to him again. When the shepherd was five years old, an unknown old Taoist came to visit, wasn't it the Lu family who invited him? Otherwise, how could he have found this place? How did he know that our family had a child who had been ill for a long time? If it weren't for the Taoist priest's years of decoction and medicine, it is unknown whether the shepherd would survive or not survive until now---- you also know his physical condition at that time, at that time, we were in panic every day, and we were awakened by nightmares again and again, for fear that the shepherd's heartbeat would suddenly stop. It's so fragile and powerless that it seems like it's going to leave us at any moment-----"
The nameless Taoist priest lived in Jiangnan City for six years, and did not leave until the shepherd's physical condition stabilized and recovered slightly. The nameless Taoist priest is gone, could it be that the Lu family's sight is also broken? Impossible. I'm afraid that the Lu family will still keep an eye on the growth of the shepherd, but the current shepherd's physical condition is still worrying, and he hasn't shown anything extraordinary, so they haven't taken him back----"
"Of course, there's no way to take it back now. If they take the shepherd back to the Lu family, in what name will they settle him? Distant relatives, illegitimate children outside, or ---- eldest son and eldest grandson who were abandoned before? Isn't that a slap in the face for themselves? It is impossible for an old man of the Lu family to do such an unwise thing by such a good-looking person. ”
Luo Qi understood that her husband's analysis was very reasonable, and said in a low voice: "Since the Lu family can't pick up people, the shepherd is still our son, what else do you have to worry about?"
Li Yan smiled bitterly, and there was a trace of pain on his resolute face, and said, "What I said is naturally the best result. The Lu family is unwilling to accept people, and shepherding sheep will always be our son. Although the days around us are light and ordinary, they are also comfortable and content, without the intrigues and intrigues of the nobles of Tiandu. ”
"And cold-blooded and ruthless. Luo Qi snorted coldly and said. "What can't they do?"
Li Yan smiled at his wife, he knew that Luo Qi had a long-standing grudge against the Lu family in his heart.
"However, what if the Lu family wants to pick up someone? Old man Lu is getting older and older year by year, doesn't he want to see his grandson before he dies? Lu Qingming is now the governor of the province and has a great history of feudal territory, and his voice in the Lu family is getting bigger and bigger, doesn't he want to take back his own son? The most important thing is that there is Miss Gongsun----- Miss Gongsun didn't understand what happened before, didn't she understand later?"
"In this way, if the Lu family wants to pick up people, it will be a logical thing. At that time, what strength did we have to resist? Not to mention that the Lu family was the wealthy giant lord of the entire Tiandu, even the strength of the entire West Wind Empire could also rank among the top few. There is also Miss Gongsun, Miss Gongsun is thoughtful, presumably it will be difficult to eradicate her heart disease for many years----- if she comes to ask for someone, will you give it or not?"
This time, Luo Qi was silent.
She is hostile to the Lu family, and feels that those men of the Lu family are cold and cruel, and will do whatever it takes to achieve their goals.
But she doesn't hate Gongsun Yu, she knows that if Gongsun Yu knows the truth, she is afraid that it will be ten times more painful than herself.
Besides, she was originally Miss Gongsun's maid, and Miss Gongsun helped clear up and overturn the case of her parents' injustice. Otherwise, I am afraid that I would have fallen into the hands of the enemy long ago.
It is precisely because of this that she is an outstanding student of the Imperial Academy of Arts who is willing to swear to serve Miss Gongsun Yu for the rest of her life. Miss Gongsun Yu is really the most gentle and kind woman she has ever seen, but -----
"Miss's life is miserable. Luo Qi said in a low voice.
"Yes, Miss's life is hard, and our life is also hard. However, none of us have the hardships of shepherding----- so if you look at what kind of life he has lived since he was born? From childhood to adulthood, almost all of them have been soaked in medicine jars. When I just knew how to drink milk, I had to drink medicine, and for more than ten years, I had to drink three bowls every day----- I didn't look good, and I was ridiculed and ridiculed everywhere. And because of illness, his intelligence is less than one-tenth of that of a normal child. Although his health has improved a little over the years, and his intelligence has slowly recovered a little, this is also the most worrying -----"
Li Yan looked at Li Muyang, who was laughing with Cui Careful Li Sinian in the yard with a kind face, and said: "A child as old as him is the most sensitive and self-esteem is the most intense, when he was a child, others scolded him and said that he was ugly, he could not take it seriously, and he didn't even understand what was going on. If he had a girl he liked, would a girl like that?"
"What then?" Luo Qi's fists clenched, his heart aching. "We have to find a way to help the kids. Shall we talk to him, enlighten him?"
Li Yan shook his head and said, "Shepherd suddenly wants to ask for leave this time, which makes me wonderful. When I went to the school to ask for his leave, I deliberately kept an eye on it, and pulled a student at the door of their class to ask ----Shepherd because the teacher suspected him of cheating on exams, so he didn't want to go to school again. ”
"What?" Luo Qi was furious and shouted angrily: "Which teacher said that my son cheated? Can I not know my son's temperament? Every time he takes an exam, he is the first to the bottom---- and he needs to cheat when he is the first to the bottom?"
"Not really. I heard that Shepherd did well in this exam----"
"Then it can be said that my son is cheating, and we parents can see how hard the shepherd has worked during this time. It's all hurt like that, and I'm still reading and reading with my schoolbag all day long, and I have to do a few test papers a day---- no, I can't just forget it, I'll go to the school to find their teachers. My son is stupidly bullied, we as parents can't be stupidly bullied by them, otherwise the child's heart will be more aggrieved----"
Li Yan grabbed Luo Qi excitedly and said, "Don't be impulsive first. It's useless for you to go to school to make noise now, and the most important thing now is the child's essay test---- have you seen it?"
"See what?" Luo Qi asked.
"Hopefully. ”
"What?"
"Hopefully. Hope on the face of the shepherd. Li Yan said. "Look at the shepherd's eyes, has he ever been so eager to learn before?"
Luo Qi looked carefully and found that his son had a bright smile on his face all the time, and his eyes were shining, like stars hanging in the night sky from time to time.
"Shepherd wants to go to college. Luo Qi said.
"Shepherd doesn't just want to go to college, but Zephyr University. Li Yan said.
"How do you know?" Luo Qi looked shocked. "Zephyr University is the best prestigious school in the empire, with the results of shepherd---- I'm afraid it will be difficult to get in, right?"
"I also overheard Sinian say something, saying that let my brother go to Xifeng University to explore the road and familiarize herself with the situation, and she will be admitted a year later---" Li Yan gestured to Cui Cheng with his chin and said, "I heard that girl is also going to Xifeng University." ”
"How is this good?" Luo Qi's face was full of anxiety. "If Miss Cui is admitted and Shepherd fails, what will he be beaten into? ”
Li Yan sighed and said: "The matter is man-made, and this matter can only rely on the efforts of the shepherds themselves." ”
Luo Qi's eyes flickered, he pondered for a long time, and said in a low voice: "Or, let's go and ask the Lu family for help?"
Li Yan was shocked and said, "Don't you want to have any contact with the Lu family the most? Just now you were worried that they would snatch your son, and now you want to take the initiative to send your son over?"
"If the child is not wronged---- Luo Qi's eyes were red, and he said, "What does it matter if I am wronged?"
“------”
Cui carefully closed the textbook and said to Li Muyang: "The history of the empire can come to an end for the time being, and this is the best and most familiar lesson for you." Starting tomorrow, we will review the Yin and Yang Sutra, this area is considered your weak point, and it will take more time-----"
"No problem. Li Muyang said with a smile: "Listen carefully to the teacher." ”
Cui stood up carefully and said, "It's not too early, I'll come back tomorrow." ”
Li Sinian ran over and took Cui Careful's hand and said, "Be careful, sister, let's have dinner at our house before leaving?"
"No need. Cui carefully refused, and said with a smile: "There are elders in the family waiting, and they can't be worried." ”
"Be careful of my sister-----"
Cui Cheng just smiled and did not agree to Li Sinian's request. She came to Li's house every day to help with tuition, but she never had a light meal at Li Muyang's house.
Luo Qi and Li Yan also came out to stay, but Cui carefully declined their kindness, and then walked towards the door with his bag on his back.
"Shepherd -----" Luo Qi grabbed his son's ears and said with hatred: "Silly boy, what are you busy packing up now? ”
"Oh oh-----" Li Muyang reacted at this time, dropped the book and chased Cui carefully.
He rushed to the gate of the courtyard and saw a luxury carriage parked beside Cui Chengxin.
A man in a cyan robe quickly opened the brocade curtain of the carriage, protecting Cui Chengxin's head and inviting her to sit in.
The door curtain closed, and the blue-robed man glanced at the place where Li Muyang was standing, and the luxurious carriage slowly drove into the night.
Li Muyang stood under the dimly lit shadow of the chimney tree, feeling stunned.
