Huang Tinghui and the old patriarch waited outside the door for a short time, and then they heard a "squeak" sound coming over.

As the gate of the Li Mansion opened, an old man with a dragon clock stood outside the door.

Is this Li Baichong?

After coming to this world, Huang Tinghui is the first time to see a man without an official body.

"Name badge!"

"You're old!" Speaking of this, the old man of Longzhong said self-deprecatingly again, "I'm old too!" ”

"With all gray hair, how can they not be old?"

"It's not okay if people don't accept it!" The old patriarch has something to ask for.

Although he has a problem with his cousin in his heart, no one is a three-year-old child anymore, and he will let some emotions sway and control himself.

"I still remember that in the past, we used to bathe and catch shrimp by the river, what a happy time!"

When people get older, it's easy to remember some of the past.

Even Li Baichong, who has the status of a lifter and is a teacher at Luyang Academy, is the same.

"In the past, we couldn't go back, when we rode a bamboo horse and waved the wooden stick in our hands to cut down the weeds, and we thought we were the unparalleled generals!"

"Where will there be this childlike innocence at this time?"

The old patriarch also seemed to recall the past, and he said to Li Baichong with a smile.

"Hahaha......"

"Hahaha......" Hearing the old patriarch say this, Li Baichong also laughed.

From the conversation between the two, the memories between the two.

Li Baichong knew that the old patriarch didn't blame himself more.

At that time, he also didn't know the situation at home, so he sent a letter.

And it was that letter that made his poor aunt die with hatred.

As Li Baichong, who has read the book of sages and has been admitted to the examination, he is naturally full of regret in his heart.

When he learned about it, he ignored his parents, his grandparents, and his grandmother.

The rest is just a few politenesses.

After all, when Li Baichong was young, his aunt loved him very much.

And his relationship with the old patriarch is also excellent.

Later, when Li Baichong wanted to put a stick of incense in front of his aunt's tablet, he was driven out by the old patriarch father and son who were angry.

In Li Baichong's view, this is also self-inflicted.

Even so, Li Baichong would burn some paper money for his aunt every Qingming Festival and Halloween.

One is to seek some peace of mind, and the other is also because of guilt from the bottom of my heart.

Now that he sees that his cousin can come to him, Li Baichong is naturally 100,000 happy.

"Name badge, come on, come on!"

"Come in, don't get into trouble with your brother!"

It can be seen that Li Baichong is still extremely happy that his younger brother came to visit him.

The old patriarch also crossed the threshold and walked inside.

Huang Tinghui naturally followed behind the two and stepped into the Li Mansion.

I have to say that the mansion of the old man is not ordinary!

I don't know where Li Baichong got so much money, there are pavilions, rockeries, gardens and even small lakes.

Just by looking at this layout, Huang Tinghui guessed that the cost of this land boundary is definitely not low.

Before, Huang Tinghui also felt that the money he had saved could buy a similar, smaller mansion.

At the moment, it seems that I am thinking too much.

Not to mention a smaller mansion, even smaller ones can't be bought.

The difference between people is so big!

This is just a mansion for a master, if it is those magistrates and officials.

Even when the head of the dynasty Zhang Julu was the first assistant, what about his family's mansion?

Huang Tinghui couldn't help but think about it.

"Hey!"

"Comrades still need to work hard, and we must not be complacent because of some small achievements we have made!"

"Compared to others, it's still a long way off!"

Huang Tinghui clenched his fists, and he secretly encouraged himself.

Walking through the pavilions, Huang Tinghui, the old patriarch, and Li Jiaoxi walked into the living room.

A servant had already prepared tea and snacks.

On the table is tea made with "Tieguanyin", and on the plate next to it are all kinds of "dim sum".

"Name badge!"

"This little brother, drink tea, drink tea!"

"Eat a snack, eat a snack!"

Li Baichong waved his hand, and he said to Huang Tinghui and the old patriarch.

Huang Tinghui picked up the teacup and placed the lid on top of the teacup to prevent the tea leaves from being sucked into his mouth.

The tea is a little hot!

After Huang Tinghui blew a breath, he took a sip of "Tieguanyin".

Although Huang Tinghui doesn't like to drink tea, which tea leaves are good and which ones are not good.

He still gets it.

After drinking the tea, Huang Tinghui picked up the dim sum on the plate again and tasted it.

Osmanthus cake!

That's pretty good!

It's no wonder that the big guys want to be a big man, with such treatment and such specifications.

How many people don't want to be big masters?

Isn't it just to make your life better?

"Mingzhang, I haven't said Happy New Year to you yet!"

After drinking the tea, Li Baichong stood up, and he actually bowed to his cousin.

"Cousin, I can't stand this, I can't stand it!" Seeing his cousin like this, the old patriarch immediately stood up, and he hurriedly said to Li Baichong.

"You're my cousin, I can't afford this gift!"

"Happy New Year, Happy New Year!" The old patriarch replied.

"You and I are brothers, and we grew up together!"

"What hasn't been done?"

"Even if it's a brother, it's not as kind as you and me!"

"Nature deserves it!" Li Baichong said to the old patriarch.

I have to say that Li Baichong is really a person with high emotional intelligence.

Just these three words and two sentences have eliminated the estrangement between the two brothers in the past few decades.

"Cousin, I haven't come to your house before......" The old patriarch was about to say something to Li Baichong, but was interrupted by Li Baichong directly reaching out his hand.

"Don't mention the past, it's all in the past!"

"We're all half-cut people who want to go into the ground, and it's no fun to carry these things!"

Li Baichong wisely avoided this topic, after all, some past events would be revealed.

For both of them, it's all hurt.

After speaking, Li Baichong looked at Huang Tinghui, who was standing on the side and did not speak.

He looked at the old patriarch and asked, "Mingzhang, I forgot to ask you just now, who is this?" ”

Hearing Li Baichong's question, the old patriarch immediately summoned Huang Tinghui in front of him.

"Brother Hui!"

"Give my cousin a New Year's greeting!"

Hearing what the old patriarch said, Huang Tinghui immediately bowed his hand to Li Baichong, "Happy New Year, old man!" ”

Huang Tinghui's voice fell, and the old patriarch took his words and said: "Huang Tinghui, the only person in our Huangjia Village who reads. ”

"I'm here to see you this time, and I'm here for his business!"

Hearing what the old patriarch said, Li Bai Chongdang even understood one or two.

"Mingzhang, do you want him to enter Luyang Academy?"

Li Baichong got straight to the point.
