Chapter 48: My Heart ()

The meal was very rich. Li Fu came back for a rare trip, so Zhou naturally spent a lot of effort. He cut the dried meat that he usually couldn't bear to eat into thick slices, put a large plate of layers, took out several eggs, pulled the green onions and stir-fried a bowl of them. Not to mention the rest, if Zhou thought it was good in his eyes, he would all serve it on the table.

The whole family sat around, Li Dexin was the most open and stared at the delicious food. Zhou and Xiangfeng were talking, and sometimes they were busy in and out, but they were always distracted from scolding Li De, fearing that he would eat too much and Li Fu had no choice. Li Fu didn't care, so he pushed the meat to his younger brothers and sisters, and sat with Li Ji and the others with his own wine bowl. Although Li Kang was not old and dared not drink too much, he also poured a little bit and sat next to his brothers. The masters and others were talking and drinking, and they were very excited.

Li Zaoer bit her chopsticks and did not focus on her food. Although she was greedy, she was an adult, not as voracious as Li De. She was thinking about Li Shou, so it would be fine to hold a few more mouthfuls, but she just lay on the table and listened to the men talking.

However, Li Ji has always been talking little. He didn't interfere with the younger generations, but he just mentioned it from time to time. Li Ping'an was honest and could not think of anything else. He just felt that his son was going to get married. He was happy and moved, and he drank high after a few cups. Several brothers were busy urging him to drink and joke, but didn't say anything serious for a while.

However, Zhou asked the truth. She asked Li Fu: "Woman, you are not young anymore. Did the shopkeeper Qian decide which marriage has he made for you?"

When Li Fu heard Zhou ask this, he was very surprised. What he usually thought was nothing but Mi Xingli's business, serving Qian and his wife, and how to help the Li family. He really didn't take the marriage to heart, so he said, "Mom, I'm only fifteen, is it early?"

Zhou sighed and said, "It may be a little earlier. But there are many people who have started a family at your age. If you are at home, although our family is not rich, it is always acceptable. What's wrong with your mother? She will find someone you like. But now, it is the manager of your marriage, and she can't do anything. Although Manager Qian treats you well, it's just that he is not good at it. If you really want to choose a bad personality... Zhou shook his head and didn't say anything: "I just hope you will be careful and pay more attention to everything."

Li Fu nodded, comforted Zhou with a smile, and said, "Don't worry, mom. My son understands it." But he smiled bitterly in his heart. So what if he pays attention? With his current identity, he can still go against the sky? What's more, Manager Qian really treats him well. He has no room for disobedience in terms of human feelings and power. He only hopes that God will give him mercy. If Manager Qian really thinks of this matter one day, those girls who are about to marry will be gentle and kind.

Thinking of this, Li Fu felt a little sad for a moment. He drank the wine in the bowl in one mouthful. He felt that the hot air was like a ball of fire, from his throat to his chest and abdomen, and then tossed and rushed upwards, rushing to the top of his head. Even his eyes felt a little hot, and he couldn't help but bit his teeth.

"Second brother." Li Shou sat next to Li Fu. He could hear Zhou clearly. Seeing Li Fu like this, he pressed one hand on Li Fu's shoulder and compared the other with the other, saying, "Drink outside."

Li Fu also planned to talk to his elder brother alone. He nodded and agreed, and said to Zhou. The two of them each brought a bowl of wine out of the house.

When we got outside, the two brothers sat on the threshold of the yard, without saying a word, and drank for a while without saying a word.

The room gradually became quiet at this time. Li Ping'an, who had drunk high, had already fallen on the kang and slept soundly. Zhou and Xiangfeng were busy bringing a few small people to pack up. Outside, there were many figures in the room. Occasionally, there were sounds of bowls and chopsticks colliding, water, and the sound of women talking softly, mixed with the laughter of high and low, and it was hard to tell who the person was laughing.

Holding the wine bowl, Li Fu said: "Brother, what do you think about this matter of sister-in-law?"

"As long as Xiangfeng is willing, she is my woman." Li Shou put down the wine bowl, turned his head to look at Li Fu, and smiled openly in front of his brother, saying, "Do you think I will give her to someone?"

When Li Fu heard Li Shou say this, he felt much more relaxed, and he was not embarrassed by the guesswork. Instead, he smiled and said, "I really thought you would do this. After all, when he was a child, except for his own brothers, you were the closest to Zhang Wang."

"You look down on your brother so much!" Li Shou pretended to glar, then smiled, "Gudu Gudu" took a few sips of wine, and said, "But, if it were a few years ago, I would have done this."

"Well. My sister-in-law was not good-looking a few years ago, so it was normal for my elder brother to look down on her." Li Fu said with a smile.

Li Shou slapped and deleted it, and laughed and scolded: "I've become more capable, I'll have fun with your brother!"

Li Fu blocked Li Shou's slap and laughed twice: "Isn't this happy for the elder brother?"

"Let me tell me something nice!" Li Shou had a stern face, but his eyes were full of smiles, and he said, "A few brothers in our family, you are the smartest since childhood. But no matter how clever you are, I am your brother. How can I not know the little thoughts in your belly? Are you just curious about when you, the wooden brother, got your idea and figured it out, right?"

"Brother, don't dare." Li Fu said, not daring, but brought the wine bowl to cover his face and smiled secretly.

"You still don't dare!" After Li Shou finished speaking, he shook his head, sighed, and said, "Actually, it's nothing to put it bluntly. I had implicated Zhang Wang in order to vent my anger on Xiangfeng. Although I was unintentional, in the end..." Li Shou stopped, lowered his head slowly, and stared at the thick porcelain wine bowl in a daze.

It was getting late, and Li Fu couldn't see clearly what his elder brother's expression was now. He could only see his elder brother's hand gradually clenching into fists, letting go, and shaking it again.

Youqing, Li Shou slowly raised his head, wiped his face, and said, "At that time, I understood that sometimes, although I said that one person does things, one person does it, things may not be fulfilled. In the end, maybe the one who has nothing to do with it may hurt is the person who has nothing to do with it, just like Zhang Wang. I had already done it once, but this time, how could I push Xiangfeng into the fire pit because my conscience is uneasy? What's the point?" After hesitating, Li Shou said, "Don't say that I really like Xiangfeng, even if I don't like it, I won't do that. I...I'm not just for myself."

"I know." Li Fu looked at Li Shou with some excitement and said, "Brother, Xiangfeng comes to our house, I will treat her as your wife and my sister-in-law. If you don't agree to this, no one will say anything even for Xiangfeng or for yourself. If someone dares to say anything, it's nothing. Brother, who else can't be afraid of? But..." Li Fu looked at Li Shou with some doubts, looked back at the quiet room, and stopped unknowingly.

Not to mention that brothers are many years old and are similar in age, just talking about Li Fu has been busy with Mi Xing's affairs in recent years. Although he cannot be regarded as judging people, he can at least look at his eyebrows and eyes. Although Li Shou was determined to not let Xiangfeng go to the joy in his words, he also revealed his guilt towards Zhang Wang everywhere. In this case, based on Li Fu's understanding of Li Shou, he would never go to the Zhang family today to reject Zhang Dazhu.
