Chapter 189 Li Mingxia must go
Song Li was a man who knew how to read people's expressions, so he naturally wouldn't ask Li Zhengde what was going on at this time. He just followed Li Zhengde, agreeing with whatever he said, and showed great interest in everything in front of him.
"Since they are the elders of the family, let my brother and Zhengde go. It doesn't matter whether my mother, me and my two sisters go or not." Li Mingxia sighed and finally gave in.
If it was someone else, Li Mingxia could still harden his heart and say no, but Zhang's current behavior was obviously empathy. If he didn't give in, Zhang would probably feel uncomfortable too.
I thought Li Sanlang would be satisfied with what I said, but I didn't expect him to just shake his head with an embarrassed look on his face.
"No, your grandfather said that no child can be left behind this time...How many years do I have left to live? This is all I can think of when I get old...What can I say after hearing this? All the elders in the family are here, their beards are all white, and he's my father. No matter how wrong he is...then..."
Li Sanlang's voice was not loud, and perhaps because he was too excited, his words were also incoherent, but Li Mingxia understood it.
Mr. Li not only wanted to see Li Zhengde, he also wanted to see Li Mingxia, and even the two little girls.
Why is that?
Li Mingxia couldn't help but feel a little suspicious. If Grandpa Li wanted to meet Li Zhengde and Li Zhengpin, then Li Mingxia could understand it. After all, on such a big day, it was normal for the elderly to want to be together and have everyone together. However, Grandpa Li never regarded his granddaughter as a real member of the Li family. He always believed in the principle that "a daughter who is married off is like spilled water". So, in such occasions, he would only think about Li Sanlang, Li Zhengde, and Li Zhengpin who were married off. After all, only these people were "members of the Li family" in his eyes. This was why Li Mingxia said those words just now. However, Grandpa Li actually specifically asked all of them girls to come. There must be something strange about this.
"Can I not go?" Li Mingxia looked at Li Sanlang and made a final test.
Li Sanlang didn't say anything, but just looked at Li Mingxia with a pleading look in his eyes.
Is there anything you don’t understand?
That is to say, no matter what happens today, Li Sanlang will ask Li Mingxia to bring his family to the old house.
"Mingxia, my dear girl, just go there. It's not like we haven't been there before. There are so many people here today and your grandma and the others can't say anything. Just go there and show up to make your grandpa happy. It doesn't matter whether you eat or not. No matter what others think, we have to do it, right?" Zhang held Li Mingxia's hand and coaxed her in a low voice.
She knew clearly that Li Mingxia was resisting that place, and she didn't want to go either. Not only did she not want to go, she also didn't want her son and daughter to go. However, many times she couldn't help but consider Li Sanlang's feelings.
"Where is my mother? What did my grandfather say?" Li Mingxia held Zhang's hand with his backhand, applying gentle force.
Li Sanlang was stunned, then shook his head and said, "Your grandfather didn't say that your mother doesn't have to go if she doesn't want to. Dad knows that you are just afraid that your mother will be wronged, right? Let's go and not let your mother go, okay?"
After hearing this, Zhang showed a relieved expression, but quickly decided to go with Li Mingxia. Just as Li Mingxia was worried about Zhang, Zhang was also worried about her daughter.
"I'll go too." Zhang said firmly. Her expression didn't seem like she was going to the old house or her in-laws' house, but to a sea of fire and swords. This realization made Li Sanlang turn his head away.
Li Mingxia was speechless. At this moment, she was even more certain that there was something fishy behind Mr. Li's action. It had nothing to do with reunion or not. These were just nice excuses.
But in the current situation, no matter how much Li Mingxia said, it would not change the matter. He had to go on this trip anyway.
"Then let's go together." Song Li looked at Li Mingxia and said with a smile.
Originally, Li Mingxia wanted to tell Song Li to wait for a while at home. After all, they didn't know what would happen when they went to the old house. What if something unpleasant happened, or if Old Mrs. Zheng started to go crazy again, it would be bad for Song Li to see it.
After all, strictly speaking, he was just a classmate of Li Zhengde, so it was better to be secretive about many things.
But Song Li insisted on going, and the reason he gave was irresistible. It was not appropriate for him to stay here alone.
Yes, the whole family went to the old house, and the people in the workshop were just sent back by Li Mingxia. Under such circumstances, it would definitely be inconvenient for Song Li to stay here alone.
"I won't talk nonsense, Miss Li, please take me with you." Song Li's voice was soft, and his tone was completely negotiating, which made it even more difficult for Li Mingxia to refuse, so she had to agree.
The reason why Song Li was so enthusiastic about this matter was because he had a hunch that something would definitely happen when he went to the old house this time, and he would definitely be needed at that time. As long as he seized this opportunity, he could gain enough favor in front of Li Mingxia! Would he still be afraid of not getting any information at that time?
"Then let's go now. Dad is waiting." Li Sanlang said hurriedly to Zhang.
"Okay, let's go." Zhang pulled Li Mingxia and called a few children, and the huge group of people hurried to the old house.
On the way, Li Mingxia had already made up his mind. No matter what Mr. Li was doing this time, what he wanted to do, or what his purpose was, he would just go there, say hello, say a few polite words, and leave.
When they arrived at the Li family's old house and entered the main hall, Li Zhengde and Song Li were both stunned.
"Xue Li?"
Why is he here?
When Xue Li saw Li Zhengde and Li Mingxia coming in, he was delighted at first, thinking that the money he spent today was worth it anyway!
But the next moment he saw Song Li's face, which was as shocked as theirs. All Xue Li could think about was why Song Li was here?
"Dad, this is Zhengde's classmate." Li Sanlang quickly explained to Mr. Li, "He came to visit our house today. Now that he is here, we can't leave him alone at home. It's not that easy to do things that way, so I brought him here with me."
Old Master Li didn't care about these at all. He glanced at Li Mingxia and felt relieved.
"Old Third, you did the right thing. Our Li family is a kind-hearted family. We should never let them blame us for not knowing how to do things. What you did was right, what you did was right!"
