Li Qing finally calmed Zhang Bo and Fang Yong with words, but it seemed that the other party didn't believe his words very much, and every time he looked at him, there was always a hint of suspicion.

Xiaoman didn't pay much attention, but helped Li Qing change the topic.

"Brother, didn't you say that you would take me to see Sister Qiuqiu, and you were playing tricks again..."

"I've been busy lately. Li Qing smiled and touched Xiaoman's head, "Why don't you have to go to class today, is it a holiday?"

Fang Yong glanced out of the door and coughed lightly: "She skipped school again..."

Li Qing's body stiffened, and he laughed dryly, but he didn't know what to say. If he were an ordinary elder, he would definitely criticize Xiaoman harshly at this time, but Li Qing stared at the little girl in front of him who kept spitting out her pink tongue and making faces at Fang Yong, but she couldn't say a serious word.

In terms of teaching children, Li Qing really has little experience.

Xiaoman is quite smart, seeing that his truancy was exposed by Fang Yong, he turned around and ran out: "I still have homework to finish, goodbye brother!"

"Can you do your homework, who are you fooling!" Fang Yong shouted in the back, looking angry.

Uncle Zhang patted Fang Yong's arm and sighed softly: "Child, what are you doing so strictly." With your attitude, it's no wonder that Xiaoman is not close to you and Long Wu. ”

Fang Yong glanced at Li Qing and sighed: "If Mr. Lin is in the mansion, she will definitely not dare to skip school." Even if you really skip school, you will never dare to run home. You guys, I really let Brother Long say it right. ”

Uncle Zhang asked with a smile: "What did Brother Long say?"

"The upper beam is not right, and the lower beam is crooked. ”

"Hmph. Uncle Zhang snorted angrily, his face unhappy. At his age, most of them like to spoil children, so it's no wonder that he can't stand Long Wu's criticism.

"Although I don't expect this little girl to learn to be rich and rich, she definitely can't learn at all. I don't have any experience in this area, so I still have to discuss it with Qiuqiu. Li Qing paused and asked, "Qiuqiu's due date should be tomorrow, how is she doing?"

"Very good. Fang Yong replied, "The doctor instructed to eat lightly and exercise moderately, and Mr. Lin did so, she has been very good in the past two days." ”

"Hmm. Li Qing was relieved, "I'll go to the study to have a look, and I'll go to the hospital to see her later." ”

"That's right. Li Qing said and looked at Uncle Zhang again, "I'm a little hungry, prepare some food and help me send it to the study." ”

"Okay, I'll go get ready. Uncle Zhang answered, turned around and went out.

"Brother Qing, you look very bad today, pay more attention to your body. Fang Yong gave an important admonition, and then got up and walked out, "I'll wait for you in the study." ”

Li Qing sent the person away, closed the door again, went back to take a good shower, and changed into new clothes before coming out.

It was already past one o'clock in the afternoon, the sun was blazing, and the trees were listlessly hanging their leaves. Li Qing walked in the shade of the tree, took a deep breath, and suddenly felt an indescribable ease all over his body. Although he couldn't tell what was different from before, he did have a completely different feeling.

"It's really strange..."Li Qing lowered his head, fell into deep thought, and before he knew it, he had walked to the study.

Approaching the lounge again, Li Qing couldn't help but gasp, and the scene in front of him made him feel equally shocked. The last time he left the lounge, Li Qing's whole person was in a state of confusion, and he had no intention of observing the environment he was in.

It was as if there had been a violent fight in the house, with desks, chairs, and wooden beds toppling, the floor tilted, trampled vinyl records strewn about, fist marks on the walls, and dried blood everywhere.

The small door had been punched out of several transparent holes, and it was obvious that Li Qing had tried to escape from here when he was struggling in pain, but in the end he was unsuccessful.

Fang Yong followed behind Li Qing, his face solemn: "Brother Qing, what have you done here, how did you get this picture?"

Li Qing shook his head, although the pain of being scorched by the fire still lingered in his heart, Li Qing had forgotten that he had struggled in this room.

"Find someone to clean up this place, and don't talk about it again. Li Qing commanded in a low voice, turned around and walked out.

Fang Yong saw that Li Qing didn't say much, so he didn't want to ask too much, so he answered lightly and followed Li Qing back to the main hall of the study.

When Li Qizhi was alive, it was strictly forbidden to eat in the study. However, in Li Qing's generation, the rules were obviously broken.

The food was fragrant, and Li Qing couldn't help but move his index finger. Stacked the materials on the table aside, and dragged over the sumptuous meal that Uncle Zhang had just delivered.

Fang Yong sat on the sofa next to the bookshelf, staring at Li Qing's gobbling appearance, and couldn't help but smile: "Brother Qing, you haven't eaten for two days, right?"

"Stop talking nonsense, pour me a glass of water. Li Qing patted his chest, "Choked me." ”

Fang Yong got up with a smile, took a glass of pure water and pushed it to Li Qing across the table, the latter reached out to pick it up at the same time, and at this moment, there was a sudden commotion outside the door.

With his eyebrows slightly raised, Li Qing raised his eyes to look at the door, only to see that an old man with gray hair had already walked into the room, followed by seven or eight middle-aged elders in their fifties.

Li Qing was slightly stunned, and immediately hurriedly swallowed the things in his mouth, and got up with a smile to greet him: "Yo, isn't this the third uncle, why are you in the mood to come to me?"

"Li Qing, let the outsiders go out first, the third uncle and a few elders have something to say to you. ”

Li Qing's face changed, and he looked at Fang Yong. The latter immediately understood, nodded slightly, turned and withdrew, and closed the door at the same time.

The third uncle in Li Qing's mouth is the oldest elder in the Li family today, Li Qiliang. Although he is a foreigner and does not have actual control over the family, he is in the same generation as the former head of the family, Li Qizhi, and is a distant brother of the latter. Although Li Qing now holds the power of the Li family, he is still a little short of breath in the face of the elders of his grandfather's generation. Especially in a big family like the Li family, which values inheritance, there is a difference between the elder and the young, and the order of respect and inferiority has always been a red line that cannot be crossed.

The seven middle-aged and elderly people behind the third uncle are also the characters of Li Qing's uncle's generation, and several of them have been running businesses in other places for many years, but today they unexpectedly got together, obviously the third uncle intended to pull them back for his own strength.

Li Qing has always been quite ambivalent about his family's attitude. On the one hand, he has an inseparable kinship with these people, and on the other hand, Li Qing is quite disgusted with them for being pedantic and bastards, and this contradiction is vividly manifested in Li Zhi. Even though the latter caused Li Qing to be unhappy many times, he only mentioned it from time to time, and did not kill Li Zhi.

Li Qizhi also warned Li Qing before he died that there will be corners where dirt and dirt are hidden anywhere, don't be too naïve, no one can really be clear. Li Qing recognized Li Qizhi's meaning, and for a long time, he did tolerate all kinds of small problems within the family to avoid pursuing them and causing secondary turmoil.

But some things are far from being able to calm down with blind forbearance. As long as you take a step back, the other party will press on you, and the greedy nature of human beings is far worse than you imagined, and it is difficult to make it really stop without tasting the bitterness.

"Third uncle, why are you so serious today?" Li Qing asked with a smile, but sat down slowly, "There are also a few uncles who are here, and it is rare to bring people together like this." ”

"Yo, isn't this the sixth uncle! I remember that you were still overseas two days ago, when did you come back? Why didn't you tell me?"

The middle-aged man who was called the sixth uncle by Li Qing looked embarrassed: "Seeing that you are too busy, I greeted Li Shi." ”

The smile on Li Qing's face disappeared in an instant, and there was a hint of coldness in his eyes.

The third uncle turned his head and glared at the mouthy guy fiercely, and then waved his hand: "Let's find a place to sit first, we have to talk about things slowly." ”

"yes. Li Qingpi didn't smile, "The third uncle is too old to stand for a long time, so sit down and rest." You're so old, if you have something, just call me and let me go, why did you come here in person. ”

A middle-aged man asked with a smile: "Little nephew, it's been this time, why are you eating?"

"Oh, I've been so busy lately. Li Qing said casually, "Qiuqiu's due date is in these two days, and there is also the matter of Gangbei Bay, so I can't be busy." ”

"Yes, the Li family is going to import Ding, which is a good thing. ”

The corners of Li Qing's mouth flashed with a smile, and he was about to speak, when another voice suddenly came into his ears: "But this Miss Lin has not entered the door of the Li family so far, and it is really not good to say it." ”

His face changed slightly, and Li Qing nodded: "This is my fault, when the child is born, I will provide Qiuqiu with a wedding and marry her into the door." ”

"Oh, that's right. The other elder nodded again and again, but frowned inadvertently, "Little nephew, as an elder, whether you like to hear it or not, there are still some things to say to you." You are the head of my Li family, marriage is the top priority, you must not be sloppy, you can't be confused just because Miss Lin was born beautiful..."

Li Qing put down the rice bowl he had just picked up again: "A few elders came to me today to spoil my appetite?"

"Oh, what you're talking about... It's really a chill for us to be elders. ”

Li Qing's eyes swept over the room, and asked in a cold voice: "A few elders don't have to babble, if you have something to say, you might as well say it clearly, what did Qiuqiu do inconsiderately and caused your displeasure?"

The third uncle, Li Qiliang, cleared his throat: "Li Qing, if you want to say that, then the third uncle is welcome..."
