Li Mansion Ancestral Hall.

A few candles were lit and stood on the incense table, and in front of the hall was the ranking of the ancestors of the Li family, which looked awe-inspiring and majestic.

Li Mingwei knelt on the ground, his stomach growling.

He was not beaten, nor was he scolded again, he was brought here directly by Alin, and he didn't even eat dinner.

As long as he bows his head and admits his mistakes, he knows that his father and mother will forgive him, but he just wants to stubbornly kneel here and let them see his determination.

Quietly, through the dim light, you can see the dark night outside.

The door opened suddenly, and a light footstep slowly approached.

Li Mingyun carried a food box to him and squatted down.

"Hungry, Mingwei?" "Eat something," she said. ”

After speaking, she calmly took the plate out of the food box and put it on the ground.

It's all pastries, or Qiu Qing secretly asked Aunt Mu to make them, because Li Zhihuai has already ordered that he is not allowed to send him food to eat today.

Li Mingwei touched his stomach.

"Sister, I said I was hungry, but I wasn't hungry." He said, his eyes stubborn, as tough as a handful of dark iron.

It's just that you can't deceive others with such words, it will only make people feel funny.

"Isn't your belly?" Li Mingyun curled his lips and smiled, "Eat quickly, you can't pretend to be in front of me?" ”

Li Mingwei hesitated slightly, then picked up a piece of pastry and stuffed it into his mouth.

"This pastry is good, sister." He praised, the more he ate, the more he ate, the more satisfied he ate, the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were full of satisfaction, "I have never eaten such a delicious pastry before." ”

When a person knows that this thing is not easy to come by or difficult to obtain, he will cherish and value it.

Lee Myung-wi is like that.

As the seventh young master of the Li family, he doesn't worry about food or clothing, so he is naturally not very keen on eating, but this time because he has been hungry for a long time and is uncomfortable from hunger, the pastries that usually taste on weekdays have become very delicious at the moment.

Li Mingyun smiled.

"Then eat more." She said, bringing another plate to him.

I had never had such an experience before, one knelt in the ancestral hall, the other secretly delivered pastries, and for a while, the two sisters and brothers couldn't help but look at each other and smile.

But after laughing, Li Mingyun looked at Li Mingwei, who was still eating pastries with no heart and lungs, and was a little worried.

"Mingwei, are you serious, do you want to mess with your father?" "They won't agree," she worried. ”

Li Mingyun originally felt that his father was difficult at this level, but he never thought that his mother was the same here.

They didn't want Ming Wei to practice martial arts and go to the battlefield......

Li Mingwei paused when he heard this, but then grabbed another piece of pastry and ate it, his eyes drooped slightly, and his brows became more and more wrinkled, which could make people see his depression and loss.

"Sister, you know, I don't want to play." He said in a low voice, "Originally, I thought I was just doing it on a whim, but now my desire is getting stronger and stronger, I just want to practice martial arts. ”

He blinked, lowered his eyes slightly, "Wang Yu also said that he will be like his fifth uncle in the future, fighting on the battlefield, and he will be majestic." I can't be compared to him! ”

"It turns out that you all think the same way......" Li Mingyun muttered, his voice inaudible.

Li Mingwei didn't hear what she said clearly, but he could guess something from the conversation just now.

"Wang Yu and his father are very supportive of Wang Yu, and said that he would go to Beijing to train at General Wang's place." He said, a little unwilling and sad, "Why don't my father and mother want to!" ”

There was a moment of silence.

Li Mingyun looked at him and said, "Daddy is worried about you, I hope you are well at home and have no worries about your life." ”

"If you want to practice martial arts and join the army, you will inevitably encounter a lot of life-threatening things, and at that time, you can't leave if you want to."

A choice, simple, can sometimes determine a person's life. If Ming Wei chooses this path, he will definitely keep moving forward.

Li Mingwei didn't want to care about the future.

Since he has made a choice, he will keep forging ahead for the sake of his choice.

He wanted to be different from his brothers.

His black eyes flashed, he clenched his fists and said, "Sister, I really have to make up my mind, no matter what my father and mother think or do, I have to insist." ”

……

……

The moonlight was bright, a layer of white light sprinkled on the quiet earth, and a few birds fell from the branches in the distance.

Coming out of the ancestral hall, Li Mingyun looked back at his younger brother who was still kneeling, and couldn't help but sigh.

The cold moonlight shone on her white and beautiful face, like a touch of light in the jade-colored boundless mountain rocks.

She walked slowly down the steps, and a cool air rose on the ground.

The wind is coolest on summer nights, bringing comfort to the hot and dry days.

Walking into the atrium, Li Mingyun glanced over and saw a figure standing solemnly at the door, looking at the bright moon in the sky with his head raised.

"Daddy?"

Li Mingyun called out tentatively, took two steps forward with a steady mind, and secretly moved the food box to the back with both hands.

"It's me."

Li Zhihuai said lightly, turned his head to look at her, his eyes were so calm that he didn't look like a person who had just lost his temper.

At this time, he was just an amiable father.

Li Mingyun breathed a sigh of relief.

"Dad, why are you here?" She asked.

Li Zhihuai didn't answer, but asked her, "What about you, Yun'er?" Bringing something to Wei'er to eat? ”

It's a question, but the tone speaks for itself.

Li Mingyun smiled embarrassedly.

"Daddy found out." She shyly took out the food box, "It's some pastries, and there is no food in the kitchen." ”

Li Zhihuai let out a "sigh" and turned his back.

"Wei'er, what's wrong?" He said, his voice clear and clear.

"Mingwei is still kneeling there." Li Mingyun stepped forward and replied, "He is hungry, and ......he kneels while eating."

This is naturally not the answer Li Zhihuai wants to hear, Li Mingyun is just avoiding the important and trivial.

"Yun'er, your seventh brother, does he have any regrets?" Li Zhihuai asked directly.

Without waiting for Li Mingyun to answer, he continued: "Okay, suddenly said that he wanted to practice martial arts, and also said that he wanted to go to the battlefield, how could your mother and I agree." ”

"Your mother, you know, your father-in-law and their deaths are dead, and she categorically refuses to let your seventh brother also play and face the fear of his life."

Li Mingyun was silent.

She could certainly understand her mother's concerns.

Mother is afraid that Ming Wei will really go to the battlefield in the future, and then something will happen......

If it weren't for Mingwei's insistence, she wouldn't have been.

Although she had never seen how ferocious the battlefield was, she could also feel the murderous aura coming to her face when she heard what others said.

"Dad, what about you?" She asked softly, "My daughter knows, your reason is not this, why don't you let Ming Wei join the martial arts?" ”

Li Zhihuai is a court official, for the country and the people, and it stands to reason that he will be proud of his son having such thoughts.

But instead of agreeing, he scolded fiercely.

"The Li family doesn't like to fight and kill." Li Zhihuai said, "Our Li family has been a writer for generations, and our ancestors have no martial artists. ”

"Dad, that's not the real reason." Li Mingyun shook his head, "If I tell my grandfather, he may still agree." ”

The old lady of the Li family is more bold, and she is full of praise for the Dingguo Gong in Pingding Northern Xinjiang on weekdays, and also said that it would be good if her children and grandchildren could get the blue eyes of the Dingguo Gong.

was refuted by his own daughter, and Li Zhihuai did not feel embarrassed.

He smiled.

"Looks like you're trying to speak for your brother?" He said.

Hearing this question, Li Mingyun was silent.

"That's right, but it doesn't seem to be like that." "I want him to do what he loves, but I don't want him to be in danger later," she whispered. ”

This is a very contradictory thing, even more contradictory than whether she thought about whether to go to the capital or not. Because for herself, she wants to follow her heart, and for Li Mingwei, she has to consider the two of them.

When Li Zhihuai saw her like this, he said: "You really think about your brother, I know." But this matter really can't be left to him. ”

"You're about to go to the capital, don't think so much, prepare with peace of mind, I'll handle your brother's affairs."

Li Mingyun said "oh".

She looked up at her tall father, "What if Mingwei keeps insisting?" You also know Mingwei's temperament, he will definitely be stubborn to the end. ”

"yes." Li Zhihuai sighed, then looked at the sky with his hands down, "Your sister and brother are really similar in temperament, and it is difficult to change if you make a decision." ”

Li Mingyun was silent, and infinite guilt rose in his heart.
