deliberately slowed down, and when the carriage stopped at the gate of the Li family, the Li family had already received the news, and many people had arrived at the Li family.

However, to the surprise of the two, at this time, in front of the gate of the Li family, a mourning flag was actually hung.

Don't talk about Lin He this time, even Li Changhui was surprised.

Changsheng didn't say that the person was gone.

The two glanced at each other, it seemed that Li Changsheng and Xiuling didn't know about it, it was estimated that it was last night, or today.

The mourning flag has not been completely completed, and there are still people who are busy at this time, and the people who help are also very surprised to see the two of them coming.

"Changhui? When did you get back? I'm looking for someone to send you news. ”

An elderly man walked out, it was the village chief Li Yongkang, Uncle Li Changhui, who knew a lot of rules, no matter who did the red and white ceremonies, he would help manage them.

Li Changhui got out of the carriage with a heavy face: "Uncle, I received Changsheng's letter yesterday, and I was worried about my mother's body, so I rushed back with Xiao He and An'er overnight." ”

At this time, Lin He also pulled Li An, who was still yawning, out of the carriage, the three of them all looked haggard and dusty, and the young Li An was still yawning and rubbing his eyes when he got out of the carriage.

No one will doubt the truth of Li Changhui's words, and in fact, they did rush back overnight, and they didn't change their clothes when they left yesterday, and they went to the field during the day, and now they still smell of sweat on their bodies.

The uncle nodded and looked into the carriage: "What about the two big ones?" Why didn't you come back? ”

Li An just got the advice of his mother, and when he heard someone ask the eldest brother and second brother, he immediately perked up: "The eldest brother and the second brother went to study in Guanzhou Mansion, and now they are not at home." ”

As soon as these words came out, the people who were walking over here were surprised, and Li Yongkang was also stunned and asked, "Guanzhou Mansion?" Didn't you study in Nanzhi County? ”

Li An continued: "The eldest brother and the second brother are too smart, they were taken to the Guanzhou Mansion by the master, and I don't know when I will come back." ”

Li Changhui gently tapped Li An's head, signaling him to shut up, and then reluctantly explained.

"Alas, I didn't expect such a coincidence, Yu'er Hao'er left with her master half a month ago, saying that she was taking them out to see the world, and now we don't know where those two children went."

Li Changhui's expression was sad and sad, Lin He looked a little low, but fortunately, Li An didn't seem to feel anything, and was looking around.

This is also in line with their personality, Li Changhui is a 'good old man', but he was forced by his father and mother to join the army, and his temperament has changed a little when he comes back, but his essence is still kind.

Lin He came back with Li Changhui, spent only three days with his in-laws, and then separated from his family, and then left Xiang'an Village and went to Yonghe Town.

Li An is similar to Lin He, and Li An was still a baby when he came back, and he probably didn't have any concept of grandparents.

In this way, the two of them have no sad emotions, but it is normal.

Li Changhui explained the situation of the two children, and continued to ask the uncle a little uncomfortable: "Uncle, what's wrong with my mother?" When we were in the town, we met Changsheng, didn't we say that my mother was okay? ”

"Ugh." Li Yongkang sighed: "It's just the anger that fell at dawn today, Changsheng didn't return to the village last night, so naturally I don't know." ”

Saying that, Li Yongkang patted Li Changhui on the shoulder: "Anyway, it's good that you can come back, although your father and mother don't like you, but after all, they are also their flesh and blood, and they should give her a ride." ”

Because of Li Changhui and Lin He's two threats before and after, Li Yonglin and Liu Cuifang, as well as two younger brothers and sisters-in-law, were very afraid of the two of them, and they often spoke ill of them in the village on weekdays, but they didn't dare to say anything about the threat.

On the contrary, Li Changhui, even if his father and mother don't like it, every year during the New Year's Festival, even if no one appears, he will definitely let people send things back.

In the eyes of others, isn't this Li Changhui's filial piety, but others don't know what to do?

So even if only the three of them came back at this time, in the eyes of others, it must not be Li Changhui's intention.

At this moment, a voice full of disgust came from the gate: "What are you doing when you come back, my Li family doesn't welcome you!" ”

It is Li Yonglin, Ang Lee's grandfather.

When Lin He saw him, he was also a little frightened.

Her impression of this father-in-law is still stuck three years ago, but when she sees it, she seems to be nearly ten years older than three years ago!

The beard and hair are all white, and the person has lost a lot of weight, the hair is a little messy, and the back is slightly hunched, looking like an old dragon clock.

Looking at the eldest uncle, it seems to be much younger.

But it doesn't matter, the important thing is that the disgust in Li Yonglin's eyes is almost substantial.

Lin He still couldn't figure out how someone could have such great malice towards his son.

Fortunately, they are not the real sons and daughters-in-law of the Li family, otherwise they don't know how to be sad.

However, Li Changhui remembered his current identity, and when he heard Li Yonglin's words, he suddenly looked sad: "Dad, let me and the children see my mother for the last time." ”

"The third child!" Li Yongkang couldn't stand it anymore, and scolded at the moment: "Forget it on weekdays, Changhui rushed back from afar, didn't you even let them in?" ”

As he spoke, he glanced at the courtyard in front of him: "If you really want to talk about it, this courtyard is still covered by Changhui's military salary, don't go too far." ”

Saying this, Li Yonglin's face was blue and purple for a while, and there were more whispers around him.

Lin He listened carefully, it was nothing more than the second elder being unfair to this boss or something.

Li Yonglin was embarrassed by his eldest brother, and was discussed by the villagers, so he snorted coldly at the moment, shook his hand and left.

Li Yongkang sighed and patted Li Changhui on the shoulder: "Go in and have a look, I'll let your aunt clean up your house later, and go back to your house to rest at night." ”

At this time and a half, I can't go back immediately, so I have to wait for the funeral, although the Li family's courtyard is large, it is no problem to live for three more people.

But with Li Yonglin's attitude, it is obvious that Li Changhui and them can't stay at home, so they simply go home and worry less.

Li Changhui was grateful: "Thank you, uncle." ”

Then he took out a handful of broken silver from his arms: "Uncle, we bought land near the county seat, but it has not been completed yet, and there is not much money left from the money we made before, these twenty taels should still be enough for my mother's funeral." ”

Is there enough of it, completely useless?

Li Yongkang also knows the difficulty of settling down and buying a home, and Li Changhui has made some money in addition to the land in recent years.

These twenty taels are a lot.

"You, you are honest and soft-hearted, don't worry, leave this matter to the uncle, you can't let you pay for it and not end well."

Li Changhui smiled reluctantly, glanced at Lin He again, and then pulled his wife and children into the courtyard.

As for the discussions outside, he didn't pay attention to them at all.
