Chapter 46 The Family Meeting (2)

At night, everything is silent, the night is very dark, as thick as ink, and there is no noise in the yard.

In the main house, several oil lamps were lit.

"When you are away from home, your life will definitely not be as smooth as it is at home. Derun, you have to restrain your temperament of being a master at home." Grandpa Li Qiantang saw it very clearly. After Zhadao, there is no signboard of the Li family. deterrent.

If it is said that the family is looking forward to moving abroad, it is estimated that only the second brother and the third sister are full of anticipation and longing for the "big city", "iron bird that can fly", and "iron lump that can walk" when they talk about it to the eldest brother.

With everyone's expressions full of uncertainty about the future, Li Chong talked about his plans, "Grandpa, Dad, I'm going to Nanjing to take the entrance examination for the Whampoa Military Academy. If I can get in, it's like I used to be admitted to the county magistrate. Like kneeling, most of the generals of the Central Army of the Republic of China government came from this. With this kind of brand, in the future, people will not dare to provoke others when they live outside."

What the Whampoa Military Academy is, my grandfather and father don't know, but they have read poetry and books, especially the grandfather was selected as a scholar, and they understand the privileges and status of juren.Li Chong's words made the two of them feel that it was feasible. If it was true, then going to a big city would be regarded as a talisman.

"Little Tiger, is it dangerous to enter the military academy?" Mother Chen Yueying had a worried look on her face, as a mother's first concern was still the child's safety.

"You don't go to a military academy to be a soldier with a gun. You don't have to charge forward with bullets." Li Chong tried his best to lower his family's anticipation of the danger of going to a military academy, "Grandpa is right, it doesn't look like a In the village, my Li family insists on one thing, and there are many people who can't afford to offend. But if you are a member of the Huangpu family, it is equivalent to the former imperial relatives, and others dare not provoke them."

"Brother, I will also join the Whampoa Military Academy in the future!" Second brother Zhixin patted the gun on his waist.

"You don't need to. I'll be the big brother, and you will support the family from now on. When you go outside, you will be the only boy in the family. You can learn knowledge and skills, and take good care of your parents and sister, you know?"

Li Qiantang looked at the harmony of the boss's family in front of him, and felt happy with something else in his heart.The boss's family's future path is clear, and the next step is to do it. The eldest grandson has considered all aspects.But what about the second child's family?Although he was called a "loafer" by some people, he was still his own son.

It's okay if the Japanese soldiers can't fight, but if they really want to fight, there is no guarantee that the Japanese soldiers won't burn, kill and loot. Li Qiantang knew his physical condition, he was dying, and he didn't have two years to live, so he didn't plan to leave, but What about the second child and the youngest of the family?To stay as obedient citizens to the Japanese?Let it be slaughtered?
"Eldest grandson, do you see your second uncle's family?" Li Qiantang didn't ask the eldest son. After the series of events after the elder grandson came back, Li Qiantang already understood that the elder grandson will be the one who will make decisions in the future.

The return of the eldest grandson, with a sudden and undeniable gesture, will separate this family from the land that has survived for a hundred years.With no time to think and hesitate, he could only subconsciously follow his footsteps. This convincing temperament is the mark of growing into a family member.

The eldest grandson didn't make any arrangements involving the second family in his words. Although he knew that the eldest and second family had many conflicts, they were all his own flesh and blood, so Li Qiantang asked about Li Chong.

Father was about to agree to come down and follow, Li Chong said first, "Grandpa, it's [-] to [-] kilometers from here to Chongqing, the long journey is very tiring, and I don't want to have to rush and reconcile conflicts. When it's settled, come back Take the second aunt and the child there. As for the second uncle, his behavior is too chilling. When you settle down, as long as grandpa is willing to follow, you can take the second uncle. He is your grandpa's son, and we have no supervision over him. responsibility."

Whether it's selfish or cold-blooded, Li Chong doesn't have deep feelings for his second uncle Li Deyi's family, and even all the turmoil and noise in this yard in his childhood had his second uncle Li Deyi's shadow.

Father and the others evacuated to the southwest region, and they might use the Lin family's channel to go there. No matter what, this was the migration route that determined their future and destiny. Li Chong didn't want to add unstable factors.

The Li family has taken root in this village for a hundred years, and there are many collateral branches, such as Li Youcun, the posthumous son of his grandfather's father and brother, who is called "Second Lord" in the village.I am not a Bodhisattva, let my parents, younger brothers and sisters settle down first, and let the others stand aside first.

Insects gradually hum, candles dim.The family gathered around the round table and talked all night long about everything they cared about.

It was not until late at night that Li Chong came back to his room, when Li Chong suddenly remembered, and took out a few photos from his bag, which were the side views of the ten pieces of gold.

Li Chong had a feeling that the chairman of the Chiba Chamber of Commerce did not lock the four thousand pounds in the small box, but kept the ten gold bars that were far less valuable. There must be some meaning behind it.

It may also be that I think too much, but I would rather believe it or not, and let's talk about it after shooting it.Don't force it, because your money will always fall into your own pocket in the end.

Waking up in the morning, Li Chong was standing under the old willow tree, boxing, stance, and leg training, and the sky was getting brighter and brighter.The fog gradually began to be able to distinguish the depth, the fields and trees showed their outlines in the fog, and the whole Zhuangzi began to reveal the roof.But the vast world was still shrouded in mist like quicksand. Li Chong's fists and feet whirred, and the surrounding mist was stirred into a ball.

While showering with well water in the yard, the whole yard gradually woke up.After breakfast, I saw the third sister who had just got off the table enter her room, and then ran out excitedly.

"Yuanxiu, where are you going so early in the morning?"

"Brother, Huijiao invited me to her house to play yesterday." This Li Huijiao is the daughter of the second uncle Li Deyi's family. Staying here, and going back and forth, the two chicks who are not much different in age naturally play together.

"What about Zhixin, why doesn't he go out with you?"

"Hmph, he hugged that iron lump all day long and followed Uncle Youcun."

Li Chong nodded, no wonder the two of them greeted each other very warmly when they came back yesterday.It turns out that the two have the same gene in their blood, they both like to wield knives, sticks and guns.

After the third sister went out, Li Chong, his grandfather and father, called Uncle Xiaotong, and explained to Uncle Xiaotong about sending him to Chongqing to find a place to stay at night.Although Uncle Xiao Tong has assisted his father in managing the affairs of Zhuangzi for more than 20 years, he has never been out of Taicheng.
