Chapter 13: Family Secrets
Li Tangshan's family hasn't gotten together for dinner for a long time! Everyone in the family is running around for their own careers, and there are not a few opportunities for reunion throughout the year.
With the joint efforts of Uncle Zhuo and Mama Wu, a sumptuous dinner was soon prepared!
Uncle Zhuo often thought about Uncle Kun's deathbed explanation, and took the opportunity to whisper to Li Yilong, "Uncle Kun should let Tangshan know about his deathbed confession, I think the time should be ripe now." And this experience in Southeast Asia makes me feel that the young master's ability is not inferior to the most elite special combat members of the Delta Force in the United States, and I also invited some mercenaries to follow him far behind during the operation, and he also rescued the Lingnan Eagle Squad in Tangshan, they were on a secret mission in the jungle this time, and were attacked by an international mercenary group. ”
Uncle Zhuo simply told Li Yilong about the jungle in Southeast Asia.
"Yes! It's good to be optimistic about this kid's blessing, and he can get Uncle Zhuo's designation! Uncle Zhuo, thank you! You're right, it's time for this kid to take on the mission of the family," Li Yilong nodded in agreement.
"Dad, Uncle Zhuo, what are you talking about? So happy! I'm about to get ready for dinner, where's Mommy? I'm going to call her! Li Tangshan said.
"Secret! Your mom should be in the room with your sister. Go and call them! We'll be here in a moment! Li Yilong and Uncle Zhuo glanced at each other and nodded with satisfaction.
It is common for ordinary families to have dinner together, but it is not easy in the Li family. Li Yilong and his wife tried to ensure that they went home for a reunion once a month as much as possible, but Miss Li Na is a celebrity in the fashion industry all over the world, and she can't see her for half a year.
Li Tangshan was helping Wu's mother set up the tableware for dinner, when Uncle Zhuo and Li Yilong walked in while walking, and walked into the dining room hand in hand with Li Na's mother and daughter. Li Na's eyes began to light up when she saw a table of delicacies, and she gave a thumbs up to Uncle Zhuo and Mother Wu.
Everyone arrived, Li Yilong arranged for Uncle Zhuo and Mother Wu to sit in the main seat, and Uncle Zhuo and Mother Wu did not dare to sit. Li Yilong: "Uncle Zhuo and Mother Wu have been working hard for our family, our Li family wants to thank you, you are the benefactor of our Li family, so you sit on the main seat, and Tangshan will come and sit next to me!" Madame sits next to Wu's mother, and Cortana sits with your mother. ”
Li Tangshan said, "Uncle Zhuo, sit down!" It's all family, so you're welcome! Here's your older too. If you don't sit, everyone won't dare to sit! ”
Uncle Zhuo didn't feel good no matter how much he pushed: "Then I'm welcome!" Uncle Kun's kindness to me, I will never be able to repay it for the rest of my life! "Uncle Zhuo is very emotional!
Everyone had a very happy dinner, and after a simple family dinner, Li Yilong turned his head to Li Tangshan: "Tangshan, you can come to the study with me in a while." ”
After being full of wine and food, Li Na asked without a head or tail, "What is so mysterious?" I can't say it in front of everyone, I have to go to the study to say it. ”
Li Yilong pretended to be serious and said: "It's nothing to do with you, concentrate on eating yours*!" ”
Li Na knew that her father wanted to talk to Li Tangshan about some important things, and it was inconvenient to tell everyone, so she made a grimace at Li Tangshan and said: "Uncle Zhuo's salt-baked chicken is more suitable for me, I have eaten all over the world, or Uncle Zhuo's salt-baked chicken makes me want to stop and can't refuse!" ”
Uncle Zhuo smiled and said, "Miss likes it, then eat more." This chicken is raised by the Chinese in Malaysia. Specially for you, Miss. ”
Li Na is like a favored child: "It's still Uncle Zhuo, it hurts me the most!" ”
Li Tangshan ignored Li Na, nodded at Li Yilong, got up and followed behind Li Yilong.
Li Yilong led Li Tangshan to the direction of the study, and after a while, he arrived at the study, this study used to belong to Grandpa Li's Uncle Kun, and after Uncle Kun left, he left it to Li Yilong, Li Yilong was too busy with work, and he rarely used it.
"Tangshan, you lock the door of the study," Li Yilong ordered. Li Tangshan gently closed and locked the door of the study, and watched Li Yilong walk to the bookshelf. Li Yilong skillfully and gently turned the vase on the bookshelf, "boom, boom" a few soft sounds, and the bookshelf slowly moved to both sides. On the wall, there was a large security iron door similar to a bank vault, and Li Yilong put his hand on the lattice above the large iron door. There was a beeping sound from the door, and then Li Yilong entered the password again and checked it to confirm, and the iris scan was exposed on the door, and another beep was heard.
Click..... Click.....
The large heavy iron door slowly opened, and a long staircase appeared in front of me.
Li Tangshan looked at the situation in front of him stupidly, he had lived in this house for more than 20 years, and he had never known that there was such a high-level secret room at home.
"Go in, don't stand stupidly", Li Yilong looked back at Li Tangshan with a surprised face with a heavy expression.
"Oh" Li Tangshan has not recovered from his surprise. But he followed his father into the basement of the secret room.
The air in the basement is similar to the outside, indicating that the basement is not closed, and Li Tangshan is very curious why his grandfather built a basement with such a high security level in the first place. There are not many stairs, only about 20 steps, and only one person can walk down slowly.
Li Tangshan found that the basement is not very large, about 10 square meters, both sides are full of all kinds of books, on both sides of the Bogu shelves put a lot of ancient books in line, in the middle of a Ming-style bookstand, more like a standard ancient study, looks old.
"Tangshan, today I will tell you something about the family's mission directly, you are already an adult, plus your Southeast Asian jungle test, Uncle Zhuo also thinks that you are capable of taking on this responsibility, I personally think that you should also add some burden to you." Li Yilong said solemnly.
"All the materials about our family are kept here, these two manuscripts are about the mission of our family, you can use these two days to read them, most of the materials I have not read due to time constraints, they are all left by my ancestors," Li Yilong said.
"Family mission?" Li Tangshan felt overwhelmed, he always thought that their Li family was only an ordinary family like many families in Singapore, but the Li family's social status was slightly higher, and it couldn't be connected with any mission at all.
Li Yilong took out a sandalwood box from the bookshelf, opened the lid of the box, took out two old manuscripts from it and handed them to Li Tangshan: "You have been reading these materials here for two days, and the ancestors have confessed the secrets here and cannot leave this room." According to the rules of the ancestors, you can only let the right person pass it on alone at the right time, and this is also what your grandfather left you. I can't watch it either. ”
