My wife left me in my old age, so I built the strongest family

Chapter 53 Junior Brother, Why Are You Living So Miserably?

Li House.

Seeing Chen Erchun coming to pay New Year's greetings with many treasures, Li Changqing didn't want to disappoint him.

Just take them all!

"Thank you, Master! Thank you, Master!"

Chen Erchun knelt on the ground excitedly and kowtowed with emotion.

It seemed like it was not him who gave the gift, but Li Changqing who gave him a big gift.

An opportunity to fulfill your filial piety!

"Oh right, according to the custom of our Niujia Village, we have to go to our ancestral graves to pay respects to our ancestors on New Year's Day. I haven't been back for so long, and I miss them so much."

Li Changqing thought of this and did it right away.

He immediately called several of his concubines, took his children, and went to Niujia Village.

It’s not that he deliberately shows off his wealth, but he wants to let his ancestors see that he, the grandson, has made it big!

They soon arrived at Niujia Village. The villagers were stunned to see Li Changqing and his family entering the village in a grand procession.

It has been more than half a year since Li Changqing moved to the county town and has never returned during this period.

In my impression, Li Changqing is still an old man in his twilight years.

But now I see, wow, he is very rich and powerful, even better than the previous Mr. Zhang!

"What happened to Mr. Li? Did he go to the city to make a fortune?"

"Damn it! Why didn't I have a better relationship with him back then? Maybe I could have a sip of soup too."

"That's totally inhumane! Look at the gold bracelet that kid is wearing, it could buy a cow with that much!"

Although the villagers were jealous, they did not dare to step forward to cause trouble. They could only watch Li Changqing and regret not being able to make friends with him.

After Li Changqing entered the village, the first thing he did was to ask the old village chief where the Li family's ancestral tomb was.

What I said to Xiaodie last time at Hongyue Tower was not a joke.

When he came back from cultivating the immortality, he found his parents buried in a mass grave, and he didn't even know where they were.

Only the village chief and a few others know.

The village chief said that he couldn't remember it clearly and it might take some time to look through the village genealogy before he could find it.

During this period, Li Changqing and his family had to find a place to rest.

It was my own shabby little house, with all my belongings moved away. There wasn't even a stool, so it was naturally unsuitable.

Remember, the Zhang family has such a big mansion?

He arranged for Zhang Qinyue to take everyone to Zhang's house first, and then he went home to sweep the house and have some peace and quiet.

But when Li Changqing just arrived at his cabin, he found that it was brightly lit.

Someone is talking inside.

"Who occupied my house while I was away?"

Li Changqing was so angry that he kicked the door open, and the people inside screamed in fright.

"How dare that blind man disturb me while I was playing cards!"

"I'm really tired of living. I'll give you two slaps. You dare to ignore my words!"

They cursed and slammed the table, but when they saw the appearance of the person outside the door, their faces suddenly changed in shock!

"He is back!"

"Haha, that's really interesting."

Li Changqing looked at a table in his little room where a group of people were playing mahjong enthusiastically.

The corner of his mouth twitched. "I didn't expect that my house would be quite lively during the time I was in the city."

"Isn't that right, Old Man Xi?"

The old man who organized the card game, Xishi's father, looked embarrassed at this moment. He bent over and came to Li Changqing, smiling and said:

"Son-in-law, you've been in the city for so long and haven't come back once. I think this house is just sitting there idle anyway, so why not make use of it and give everyone a warm home?"

"Oh? Really?" Li Changqing suppressed his impatience and pointed at the villagers playing cards. "Is this how you gave my house away to others? So that these gamblers can have a comfortable place!"

The old man smiled bitterly and said, "Son-in-law, didn't I think you wouldn't be home for the New Year? If no one from your Li family is home, it would be a shame to our ancestors. I am also thinking about you."

"You old man, you are really thoughtful." Li Changqing reached out and patted his shoulder.

Just as the old man breathed a sigh of relief, a hand reached out and grabbed his neck.

"Ah? Son-in-law!"

He was immediately picked up and looked at Li Changqing in panic.

"Don't call me son-in-law! I told you all this. When I gave you a bag of silver, you broke off your relationship with Xi Shi. Didn't you agree to it decisively? Now you're still using it to fool me. I tell you, it's useless!"

Li Changqing was not shaken by his words at all, because he knew that this man was not his father-in-law at all, but a notorious gambler.

Even if Xi Shi was watching this scene, she would not try to stop it.

"Uncle Changqing, don't mess around. There's a custom in the village that you can't see blood on New Year's Day. If you see blood, you'll have bad luck for the rest of the year!"

From behind, some gambler shouted this.

"Yes, I remember now. There really is such a custom."

Li Changqing remembered that when he was a child, he cut his finger during the Chinese New Year and went to his mother for comfort, but was instead scolded as a poor child.

Li Changqing was still skeptical about this matter.

Finally, he let go of his hand and let the old man down.

Just when they all thought that the matter had come to an end and they could be safe and sound.

Li Changqing said coldly, "Do you really think that if I don't take action, you will be fine?"

"Uncle Changqing, what else do you need from us?"

These gamblers looked worried.

Li Changqing smiled softly and pointed at the house. "Don't they say a new year brings a new beginning? You guys are just sitting there playing cards, so why not do something? Now, clean it up for me! Repair it completely!"

"If this old man is not satisfied, haha, I won't beat you, but I will go directly to your house and tear it down!"

"what?"

The villagers looked bitter.

But there is no other way. This old man surnamed Li is definitely capable of doing such a evil thing!

They took action immediately and rushed to repair the Li family cottage.

Not to mention, they worked quite quickly under Li Changqing's supervision.

For fear of being targeted, they all worked hard and seriously. By noon, they had renovated the cabin inside and out.

Although it was just a log cabin after all, Li Changqing was very satisfied with it.

"Get out of here! What are you still standing there for? Do you really think I'm your employer, someone who paid you to work here, and that I'll even invite you to lunch?"

When they heard this, they felt relieved and ran faster than mice.

In a blink of an eye, Li Changqing was the only one left in front of the cabin.

He was feeling a bit hungry.

Even after practicing, the desire for food and drink will still inevitably come to mind.

During this time in the county, Li Changqing, who was used to eating big fish and meat, wanted to eat something interesting.

He hurried into his wooden house and looked around at the ground where the bed had been placed before.

Seems to be looking for something.

Suddenly, Li Changqing saw a small protruding mound and his eyes lit up.

"Yes, it should be here!"

Li Changqing was as excited as if he had been injected with chicken blood. He quickly dug it open and took out a small jar.

As soon as it was opened, the strong smell of decay rushed straight to the top of Li Changqing's head, and he almost fainted from the smell.

"Yes, it tastes just right!"

Li Changqing looked at the kimchi in the jar and his mouth was watering.

This was the kimchi he made before leaving the village and buried it in the ground. He thought he would never see it again, but who would have thought that he, who was used to eating big fish and meat and delicacies from mountains and seas, actually missed this taste very much.

"Not bad, not bad, crunchy and so fragrant!"

He picked up a piece of white radish without hesitation, stuffed it into his mouth, and showed a happy expression.

But just as he was immersed in this, he didn't know that a dusty figure had already come outside.

She was wrapped in a snow-white mink fur, as pure and flawless as a snow fairy in the wind and snow.

"This should be it, right? Is this where Mr. Li lives? It looks... really shabby."

Gu Qingling took the map and when she saw the cabin that Li Changqing had renovated, it was still unsightly in her eyes.

It's like a pigsty!

"Is this kind of place suitable for human habitation? Alas, Junior Brother's life is truly unsatisfactory."

She said so, but the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and she couldn't help it.

She walked to the door and was about to knock, but then she thought that since she was visiting suddenly, she must give a surprise.

So, Gu Qingling chose to break in directly!

Boom! !

The door was kicked open!

Such a commotion scared Li Changqing, who was squatting on the ground chewing kimchi inside the house.

"Who?" He looked at the figure at the door. The figure was tall and slender, with a stunning appearance and a fresh and refined temperament. It instantly brought back those unforgettable figures in his memory.

"Senior Sister Gu???"

Li Changqing was confused. Why did this guy suddenly appear in his house?

When Gu Qingling saw Li Changqing's current appearance, she immediately covered her mouth and her cheeks puffed up.

"Ah? No, Junior Brother, why are you squatting on the ground? You are stealing the good food."

"Let me see what delicious food you are eating?"

"Huh? Radish and cabbage! This is kimchi, hahahahaha!!"

"Junior brother, why are you living such a miserable life?"

Gu Qingling couldn't maintain her image at all and burst into laughter. Her devilish laughter lingered in the wooden house and on Li Changqing's dark face.

"Damn it! I've already met an unlucky star on New Year's Day!"
