Chapter 956: Lee Seung-do's News
After Qi Niang was shy, she suddenly found a problem, that is, Li Yuan and the bearded guest both came from the Americas, but they did not see Li Chengdao, which made her a little worried. Originally, Qi Niang hoped that Li Xiu would ask about it, but after Li Xiu and Li Yuan finished speaking, they talked to Pei Lin again, and talked a lot but still didn't ask about Li Chengdao, which made her finally can't help it, so she dared to ask why Li Chengdao didn't come?
"Don't worry, Chengdao left a little later than us, and the time should be almost to Datang, speaking of which, when we came, he didn't agree, worried that there would be an accident on the road between the two of us, but then we secretly took people away, with his temperament, he would definitely personally lead the fleet to chase over." Li Yuan laughed again at this time, and his eyes were also full of love when he looked at Qi Niang, he had now decided that Qi Niang was his granddaughter-in-law.
Hearing that Li Chengdao was about to arrive, Qi Niang couldn't help but show a happy expression, but then she was a little shy, and then she hid behind Li Xiu again and didn't come out again, probably planning where to take him to play after seeing Li Chengdao.
Regarding Qi Niang's performance, Li Xiu couldn't help but sigh secretly, it was really a big woman, Qi Niang was still reluctant on the way before, but now that he heard that Li Chengdao was coming, he was full of excitement, and it was estimated that he had already thrown his previous reluctance out of the clouds.
However, Li Xiu also had a lot to say to Qiu Ke and Li Yuan at this time, so he didn't care about Qi Niang, and immediately began to ask about Li Yuan's experience of going to the Americas to meet Li Chengdao and others, as well as the current development of the Americas, especially for the gold and silver produced in the Americas, which are urgently needed by Datang Bank.
In response to Li Xiu's inquiry, Li Yuan first talked about how he left Datang and arrived in the Americas last year. Last year, Li Yuan faked his death with the help of Li Xiu and Pei Lian, and then quietly left Chang'an City, and was also worried along the way, and finally came to Suzhou, and connected with Zhang Shiyi, and then got on the ship to America with the help of Zhang Shiyi.
Li Yuan has lived for a lifetime, but it is the first time to go to sea, and he is old, long before sending him away from Chang'an, Li Xiu was a little worried that his body could not stand the wind and waves at sea, after all, although Li Yuan's illness was faked, his body had indeed collapsed.
But even Li Yuan himself didn't expect that he didn't have any discomfort after going to sea, many people who go to sea for the first time will encounter seasickness, often vomit in the dark, the body is a little worse, and even may die because of this, but Li Yuan is not seasick at all, but is still very fascinated by the scenery on the sea, and the boat boss who doesn't know his identity praises him for being born to eat at sea, but unfortunately he is a little old.
In fact, people like Li Yuan who are not born seasick do exist, but the number is very small, because there is an organ in the human ear that deals with balance, and when ordinary people encounter the shaking of the ship, this organ will be chaotic, causing people to feel seasick, but there are a few people who have defects in this organ, and the result is that they do not have any reaction to the shaking of the ship, and naturally there will be no feeling of seasickness.
There is no seasickness, so that Li Yuan has also eliminated one of the biggest dangers during the voyage, and in recent years, the Americas will send a fleet to Datang every year, although the road is far away, but they are familiar with the waterway, and the difficulties encountered in the voyage are also fully prepared, and the conditions on the ship are much better than at the beginning, so although Li Yuan has suffered a lot at sea, he finally went to the Americas smoothly.
Li Chengdao and Li Yuanji didn't know that Li Yuan was coming in advance, and when they saw him appear alive in front of them, not only did the two of them dare not believe it, but the other people who came to the Americas with them also couldn't believe it, and even wondered if this Li Yuan in front of them was fake? It wasn't until Li Yuan called out Li Yuanji's nickname and said some interesting stories about Li Chengdao when he was a child, that their suspicions were dispelled, and the three generations of grandparents immediately hugged each other and cried bitterly.
"Originally, I was worried that Yuanji and Chengdao were too bitter in their lives, but I didn't expect that they had laid down a lot of territory in the Americas, although they couldn't compare with the Tang Dynasty, but they were well governed, the only problem was that the population was too small, but over the years they vigorously encouraged childbirth, and used all their strength to educate children, so that the population has also increased several times, of course, most of them are children, and now the oldest is only nine years old, it is estimated that in a few years, these children will be able to grow up, Then it's time to expand again! Li Yuan finally concluded.
"You really have a good grandson, look at the bastards in my family, not to mention comparing with Chengdao, even his brothers are stronger than my children and grandchildren, and now I don't dare to hand over the foundation to them!" At this moment, the bearded guest suddenly interjected, probably stimulated by hearing Li Yuan's words.
"Haha~, Brother Zhang's words are outside, in addition to Chengdao, aren't my grandchildren all the sons-in-law of your Zhang family, our two families will be a family in the future, Chengdao is still your righteous son, where is the need to distinguish so clearly?" Li Yuan laughed loudly when he heard this, and said again.
After Li Yuan went to the Americas, although he was accompanied by his son and grandson, his favorite thing was to associate with the bearded guest, both of them were one of the heroes at the end of the Sui Dynasty, and they naturally had more common language with each other, so they liked to go out to sea to fish when they were fine, and they chatted all day, and the friendship was naturally getting deeper and deeper, and even had a feeling of confidant.
Li Xiu was also very happy to see that Li Yuan and the bearded guest got along so well, and then he asked some about the development of the Americas, although he kept in touch with the bearded guest and Li Chengdao, but the last time he received their letter was a year ago, and a year is enough time to make a lot of changes in the Americas.
The bearded guest also didn't see Li Xiu for a long time, so he asked him to sit down immediately, and then asked someone to bring wine and food, they chatted about the situation in the Americas while eating, and Li Xiu also knew some of these things, such as Li Chengdao's younger brothers, including Li Yuanji's sons, are now growing up slowly, and several adults have also married the daughters or granddaughters of the bearded guest, and the few underage ones left behind are also engaged to the Zhang family, which makes the relationship between the two families more intimate.
It is precisely because of the marriage of the two families that the two Han forces in the Americas have become closer and communicate more frequently, which has also been admitted by the bearded guest, but when talking about these things, Li Xiu is very keenly aware that his uncle seems to have triggered some thoughts, and his tone has become melancholy, but in front of Li Yuan and Pei Lian, he did not show the true thoughts in his heart.
