Chapter 7 Ambition
Li Mingyun didn't take Li Mingjia's matter to heart.
This is not worth mentioning at all for Miss Li San.
She teased the little rabbits, who were no longer so restrained, and pulled a few leaves for them to eat.
The rabbit's mouth arched over the leaves, and in a moment it was eaten clean.
Qiu Qing touched the ears of the white rabbit and said crisply: "I've grown up!" If you really eat as much as you grow. ”
Chunyu laughed: "Qiuqing, you are different from them, you can't grow just by eating!" ”
Qiu Qing puffed out her cheeks and glared at Chunyu.
Is it good that she is still young, she will grow in the future, and Sister Chunyu will definitely not grow tall!
"Alright." Lee Ming-yun interrupted the standoff between them.
She stood up and went to the basin to clean her hands, and smiled, "Seeing that they have eaten for so long, it is time for me to eat." ”
Qiu Qing grimaced at Chunyu and followed Li Mingyun out of the house.
Everyone in the Li Mansion basically doesn't eat together, unless it's a New Year's holiday, or after the old lady comes back, they will sit together.
Last year, the second young master of Li Mansion went to Beijing to catch the exam, and the old lady also went with him, and then lived in the big master's mansion in Beijing, and only returned to Guangzhou at the end of the year to gather with everyone.
Li Mingyun was having dinner in her mother's courtyard, and when she arrived, her father and seventh brother also arrived.
When she saw the wilting appearance of her seventh brother, she must have been reprimanded by her father for not satisfying her father by reciting today's homework.
"Dad, my brother is working very hard now."
Receiving Li Mingwei's pleading expression, Li Mingyun smiled and talked to Li Zhihuai.
Li Zhihuai smiled gently: "Hard work does not mean that you can master knowledge, but it is useless to work hard, it must be that your mind is not here, Ming Yun, you don't have to intercede for your brother." ”
Can't intercede? Fathers rarely do this, and it seems that this time it is a bit serious.
Lee stopped continuing the topic.
"Sister......" Li Mingwei looked at her distressedly.
Li Zhihuai turned his head and said, "Do you still want your sister to say something good for you?" I'm just watching you back in front of me today, and it's not a good idea? If this happens again tomorrow, don't blame me for being polite. ”
Li Mingwei lowered his head and replied dryly.
Chen walked out of the back room with a smile, took Li Mingwei's hand, held Li Mingyun again, and said to Li Zhihuai: "Okay, okay, always scold the child for what to do, if you say anything else, the food will be cold." ”
There were no words, and the family quietly finished their meal.
After the meal, Li Mingyun cleaned his hands and was pulled by Chen to sit in front of the hall, and Li Mingwei sat down under them.
"Mingwei, now that your second brother is not in the mansion, of course your father attaches more importance to your studies, you can't be resentful, you know?" Chen said bitterly.
"I know, mother." Li Mingwei picked at the armchair and replied repeatedly, "I know that my father is for my good." ”
Mingwei is still very sensible.
Li Mingyun and Chen glanced at each other and couldn't help laughing.
The three of them gossiped for a while, and when Li Zhihuai came out of the study, Li Mingyun and Li Mingwei bowed together.
The light was shining inside, the night was dark outside, the sky was covered with tiny stars, the night wind was gently blowing, and the shadows of the trees were swaying slightly.
Li Mingyun turned his head to look at the depressed Li Mingwei next to him: "Mingwei, why did you make your father angry today?" ”
Although Li Mingwei didn't like to study before, in order to get praise from his father, he would still work hard to learn well.
But this time, he made his father angry, and there must be a reason why he did it.
Li Mingwei sighed, only to realize that his sister was asking him.
He raised his bright eyes and looked at Li Mingyun with some hesitation: "Sister, I, I ......"
"What are you thinking in your heart, just say it, do you still have to support me in front of me?"
Li Mingwei didn't plan to go around in circles, he looked around, and when he saw that there was no one around, he whispered to Li Mingyun: "Sister, I don't want to study anymore." ”
Because I didn't want to study, I didn't study well.
Yes?
Li Mingyun's eyes widened and he dragged him to a more secluded place.
"Why don't you want to go to school, what do you want to do?"
My sister always speaks to the point, and my sister is so reasonable.
Li Mingwei smiled, and felt that his thoughts were a little bad, he stretched out his finger and scraped the stone wall in front of him, and was silent for a moment before saying: "I want to learn martial arts, I want to go to the battlefield!" ”
Hearing his younger brother say such a thing, Li Mingyun was even more surprised.
Now the older generation of the Li Mansion, the eldest uncle is the servant of the Ministry of Officials in the capital, the father is the governor of Guangzhou, the fourth uncle is also a lifter, the younger generation, the eldest brother, the second brother and the third brother are all literati, and even the fourth brother, who has always been a hanger, is also working hard to prepare for the county test in the coming year.
The Li family did not join the army, they knew martial arts, and they were just the fourth brother who learned a little kung fu from the guards.
"Can you tell me why?"
Li Mingyun was curious that his younger brother would come up with such an idea.
Li Mingwei thought for a while and said: "I always hear Wang Yu say in the academy that his fifth uncle is a great general who pacifies the west, although I don't like his proud appearance, but his fifth uncle is indeed very powerful, and that posture is majestic." ”
He waved his hand and said, "All the soldiers listen to the order and follow me into battle to kill the enemy!" ”
learned well, Li Mingyun laughed.
"Amazing, right? Isn't it amazing? Li Mingwei asked, with a little excitement in his voice.
"It's amazing." Li Mingyun nodded and said.
Li Mingwei was very proud, as if he was already the brave general who commanded tens of thousands of soldiers on the battlefield.
He shook Li Mingyun's arm and looked up at her: "Sister, if I tell my father, will he agree?" ”
He didn't dare to talk to his father about it, because his father never let people talk about the battlefield in the house, and his father didn't like the battlefield.
Li Mingyun stroked Li Mingwei's sleeve, shook his head and said, "I don't know if my father will agree." Dad has high hopes for you and the second brother, and now the second brother doesn't care about it for the time being, Dad hopes that you can succeed in your studies, Mingwei should know it. ”
Li Mingwei nodded gloomily: "Dad hopes that I can study hard, like the second brother, I also know that my father is for my good, and I am afraid that I will be laughed at behind my back." But......" he looked up, "if I can be like the great general, I will be successful." ”
There was a hint of childlike stubbornness and firmness in his dim eyes.
Li Mingyun saw that her younger brother had made up her mind, and she couldn't say anything, she pondered for a moment and said: "Mingwei, now you don't know if you really like to practice martial arts or on a whim, so let's do it, you study hard first, and after three months, you still haven't dispelled this idea, so I will talk to my father with you." ”
Li Mingwei's eyes brightened instantly, and he nodded vigorously: "I will not change my mind." ”
The corners of Li Mingyun's mouth curled, and he nodded and smiled at him to reassure.
She didn't want her brother to go to war in the future, but if he really liked it, she would respect his idea.
My father always said that between the world and the world of life, like a white horse passing through a gap, suddenly, if you can find what you really like, and do not regret it in your life, then you are lucky.
This kind of thing, she can't stand in the way.
