Chapter 294 The responsibility of being the eldest son!
Li Lao Er, Li Lao San and Li Lao Si were all surprised when they heard this and immediately spoke out to object.
“Brother, what did you say? Go to Quanzhou, is that on the southeast coast?”
"This is too far! Brother wants to relax, so he needs to find something nearby."
“Brother, you can’t leave home anymore. My mother is old and it took a lot of effort to get you back.”
Even Brother Li and Brother Mao also hugged their father's lap and persuaded him with tears.
“Dad, don’t go, we miss you! We are scared!”
Brother Cat is fine. He has food and drink every day and is loved by his grandma. Apart from studying and playing wildly with his friends, he rarely thinks of his mother.
But Brother Li was different. Although he didn't see his mother being sent away, he still heard a few words.
In his heart, his mother is gone.
Now that his father is leaving another country, he feels panic and uneasy, and he hugs his father even tighter.
Li Zhensheng's heart felt like a knife, but he still gritted his teeth and pulled the two children apart, and then knelt down in front of his mother.
“Mother, my son knows that it was my son who insisted on going out on a study tour, which made my mother suffer for more than ten years. If possible, my son is willing to serve his mother all his life and never leave. But...
"However, our family's wealth has accumulated too fast. If we don't have the ability to protect ourselves, we are just a piece of fat meat, and I don't know how many people are waiting to take a bite. Of course Mrs. Cui, Mr. Wen, the Liu family, and the Marquis can Protect our family and the people in the village. But mother, it is better to rely on others than on yourself at any time!"
He knocked his head heavily on the ground, hugged my mother's legs, and choked with sobs.
"This time, the Marquis and I have planned something together. If it comes to fruition, no one in Tianwu will dare to bully our family. To say the least, even if the Marquis dies in battle, our family will be able to maintain prosperity and wealth for three generations. .
"As the eldest son of Li, my son failed to fulfill his responsibilities as the eldest son, leaving his mother and brothers without support for more than ten years. My son feels guilty! Now that he has the opportunity to make up for the shortcomings of more than ten years, his son must give it a try! "
After saying this, he kowtowed heavily again and again, and soon his forehead was bruised.
The room was so quiet that one could hear the sound of his kowtow.
Mrs. Li burst into tears and helped her eldest son up with trembling hands, "Zhensheng, you have to know that if something happens to you again, my mother will not survive!"
Li Zhensheng also burst into tears, "Mother, my son knows. But don't worry, my son just went to transport some things back. There is no danger. And if this thing is done, the people of Tianwu will no longer be afraid of starving. What a great merit. The Marquis can also return to Jiangbei within three years, both in public and private matters, even if his son has to go there!"
“Brother, please stay at home while I go!” Li Laosi knelt down beside his eldest brother. “I have a lot of strength. Even if there is danger outside, I won’t be afraid.”
“No, I’ll go!” Li Lao Er and Li Lao San also followed suit.
Li Zhensheng wiped his tears and said, "Brother, it's not that I look down on you. You rarely walked around before and have no experience in doing business. This matter is of great importance and there is no room for error. I still want to go there in person. Besides, Sihaiju and several shops, I took them all back and went out to see if there were any good things to support the business."
Li Laoer and others were silent. They really couldn't do these things.
Old Mrs. Li sighed and helped her sons up with her own hands, "Sit down."
She wanted to speak, but her lips kept trembling.
Just like the eldest son said, no matter what aspect she thought of, she should agree.
But her son, who had just returned to her side, was going on a long journey again, so she was worried no matter what. Jiayin quickly ran over and hugged her grandma's neck, patting her back with her little chubby hands.
The old lady's nose felt sore, she tried her best to hold back her tears, and hugged her granddaughter tightly, as if she could draw some strength from her.
After a long while, she said, "Boss, you can go if you want. I don't trust you, I am Lord Xin, and he will never let anything happen to you again. Also, the family really needs this merit. God bless you, let me My family traveled thousands of miles to Broken Gold Beach to find you, and now may be the time to pay back!"
Li Zhensheng's eyes were red again, and he wanted to kneel down, but was interrupted by Li Laoer.
“Mom, let the elder brother take Jia Yi with him. This boy is also naughty at home, and he is also very strong. When he is with the elder brother, he can also help him and run errands.”
Jiayi has been ready to make the move for a long time, but he has not dared to interrupt because his grandma and uncles were talking.
At this moment, he jumped up happily, "Okay, okay, I'll follow uncle! I will be obedient and never cause trouble."
The old lady gave her grandson a hard look and said, "You think this is just for fun? It's a long journey, and I don't know how much hardship you have to endure!"
Jiayi squeezed to grandma's side and acted coquettishly, "Grandma, just let me go. I'm not afraid of hardship. And, and more! Can you take Liu Yang with you? The two of us are invincible. "
The old lady was so angry that she slapped him on the head. How could such a reckless boy be let out?
But Li Laosi understood his nephew's mood very well and helped to plead, "Mom, let Jiayi go out and have some adventures. Maybe this kid will find what he wants to do and the path he wants to take."
Li Laoer also said, "Yes, mother, Jiaren is good at studying, and he will definitely take the imperial examination in the future, but Jiayi is not a boy who is good at studying. It would be better to let him go out with his elder brother to have a look."
When the sons said this, what else could the old lady do? She could only nod.
Jiayi turned around and ran away. After a while, Liu Yang, who looked excited, dragged his parents over.
The Li family couldn't make it too clear. They only said that Li Zhensheng was going to Quanzhou to see if there was any new business.
Liu Yang looked at his parents eagerly, fearing that they would not agree.
Fortunately, Mr. Liu and his wife did not stop him and supported their son to go out for a walk.
The old lady talked about the safety issue euphemistically. Liu Biaotou laughed and said, "This boy is not so unlucky. Besides, in the fall, maybe we will have another boy in our family."
“Oh, sister-in-law is pregnant?”
Everyone was surprised and congratulated one after another, which made Sister-in-law Liu blush, "I just got pregnant not long ago, so I didn't tell everyone."
“Be careful in the first three months, and wait until the pregnancy is stable.” The old lady, Zhao Yuru, and Tao Hongying were all happy and pulled her into the house. They talked to each other while packing Li Zhensheng and Jiayi's luggage.
In the main room, Liu Biaotou also told Li Zhensheng some of the local customs and customs in Quanzhou that he had heard before. In the end, he was still very reluctant to leave. He sighed, "If there hadn't been a new baby in the family, I would have gone with him."
Li Zhensheng smiled and said, "If my family's business can be revived, I will have to travel to Quanzhou frequently in the future, and there will be many opportunities. However, after I go for a few months, the elderly and children at home will have to trouble Brother Liu to help me take care of them."
"We don't speak foreign languages. We are all one family, and that's what we should do." Liu Biao waved his head and said boldly, "Safety comes first when you go out. The family is waiting for you to come back."
