My wife is number one in the world

Chapter 919 The price of growth

Mrs. Liu looked at the excited little guys like little cats with heartache, and looked dissatisfied at the cheerful Young Master Liu who was carrying a fishing rod!
"Is there a father like you? It smells like fish, like someone crawling out of a mud nest!"

Liu Mingzhi looked at the five children with bright red faces and smiled and handed the fishing rod to Liu Song: "This is what my son owes them, just have fun, children are like this!"

"Tweety, quickly take Feifei and the other five to take a shower, change into clean clothes, and don't suffer from the cold!"

"Yes!"

"Young master, young miss, you guys come with your servants!"

The five little guys looked at their father reluctantly, as if they were afraid that Young Master Liu would fly away as soon as he turned around!
"Go, daddy won't go, wait for you to come out for dinner!"

The little ones followed Tweety towards the inner courtyard.

"Mother, are Yun'er and the others up?"

"Aren't you going to see it yourself? I don't know anything, and I'm obviously very distressed, and I'm still pretending. Aren't you asking for trouble?"

"Oh mother, the children are not filial, the hard work mother went to the children's courtyard and told them that they can get up, and what to do if they kneel down and break their knees!"

"If you want to go by yourself, I won't go! Do your own thing!"

"Mother, they won't care if my son goes there, you just have to work hard, my son still has some things to deal with in the study!"

"Okay, just this one time as an example, pay attention to your body, don't you know how to rest for a few days after you just came back from the expedition? It's all your old man, who is an official, you can figure it out by yourself. Since you entered the court, you have stayed at home. How many days have you spent? You have been sent to the Kingdom of Jin, rescued disasters in Qingzhou, suppressed bandits in the south of the Yangtze River, and conquered the Western Regions. You can count the days you have stayed at home with one hand in the past few years. It doesn’t matter whether you are an inappropriate official. It’s the worst thing to learn from your father-in-law. It's better to be an idle father-in-law like Zhu Run than to run around like this!"

"Oh mother, don't say angry words. At this stage, the child is involuntary. The child has touched the interests of too many people. I am afraid that I will end up dead sooner or later. Don't look at the court. Now many people greet him with smiles and flatter him, but once he loses power, they will be the first to turn their faces and deny him!"

"Chao Tang, profit is always paramount, affection is the least valuable thing in the one-acre land of Jinluan Palace!"

Mrs. Liu's face was a little sad: "Zhi'er, don't blame your father, your father is also helpless, he is also the person who worries about you the most, but you know your father, he is not good at expressing anything, but you don't know that your father is worried about you. What is it like!"

"Qingzhou, you were unfortunately infected with the plague. Your father hadn't cried in ten years, but the time was full of regretful tears. He blamed himself and blamed himself for forcing you to become an official. During the Western Expedition, your father even handed over the business. The shopkeepers of the Liu family take care of it, and climb to the top of the roof every day to look towards the west!"

"mother"

"Doesn't your father know that you can't see anything through thousands of mountains and rivers? He knows it better than anyone else, but he still looks at the west in a daze from time to time, just hoping to see you come back on horseback that day." !"

Madam Liu burst into tears as she spoke.

"Lian'er went to Sichuan alone. Liu Yezi's 15 brothers are either the second child, or the caravan guard, or the shopkeeper's handyman. Nei Liu's children have not gathered together for 15 years. When your father knows about this matter, within [-] For the first time in [-] years, Liu Zidi went secretly to the south of the Yangtze River to gather together. Your father said that he can still fight the last big mountain for you with his old bones, and it will be up to you in the future! Fortunately, the emperor relies heavily on you. He didn't do anything to Lian'er, what a blessing in misfortune!"

Liu Mingzhi's eyes were a little moist: "Mother, I understand in my heart that the old man is a man with a knife mouth and a bean curd heart. If the child owes him a lifetime and if he can't pay it off, then in the next life, I will pay him back bit by bit!"

Mrs. Liu gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes: "Go and do your work first, mother will prepare a banquet to welcome you!"

"Okay, prepare some good wine, my son will have a good drink with the old man!"

Liu Mingzhi pursed his lips and walked towards the hall of the inner courtyard.

In the courtyard outside the hall, Liu Mingli was pacing pitifully, while Liu Zhian was sitting on a recliner, holding a small teapot and drinking tea comfortably.

The coal stove beside him was steaming with steam, and Liu Zhi'an still wrapped his body in a cloak from time to time to prevent the cold wind from invading his body.

"Don't stay outside all the time when you're old. Be careful if you catch the wind and cold. Don't point at me to take care of you. Anyway, you scold me every day for being an unfilial son. You don't plan to live unhappy because of me, an unfilial son." Persist for decades!"

Liu Zhi'an's sleepy eyes opened a slit and glanced at First Young Master Liu. He put the teacup on the low table and sat up: "I want you to worry about it. You don't want to take care of your old age. My husband and Chengzhi, Chengfeng Yiyi these few days A good grandson and a good granddaughter, I hope you don’t know about the next year!”

"It's best if you have this awareness. Anyway, if Chengfeng and these bastards are so angry with me in the future, I will live a better life, live a long life, and piss them off!"

Liu Zhi'an sighed and stood up from the reclining chair, tightening the cloak on his body: "Time is not forgiving, in the blink of an eye there will be a house full of children and grandchildren, I don't know how many years I have left with my old bones , Sometimes the old man is thinking, I have lived for most of my life and I don’t feel that I have lived a good life. Fortunately, you are doing me a favor. There is no 25-year-old father-in-law in the Liu family. I will see you after a hundred years They can also take a place with pride! It's Ming Li."

Liu Zhi'an glanced at Liu Mingli who was in horse gait and sighed helplessly: "It's getting worse and worse, good seedlings grow and become crooked, Lai seedlings grow straighter and straighter, Mingli didn't even get the top three in the imperial examination the year before last , it’s really not a material for studying, it’s really not good, you can find a way for him to go to the army to train for a few years!”

"What about the family business? Who will pick up your team when he goes to the army?"

"Mingjie, why did he grow so fast when he grew up? If the second child agrees, I will try to train Mingjie!"

"Father, I have no objection!"

"Shut up Laozi!"

"Oh!"

"Look at the arrangement. It's not impossible to throw him into the military camp for two years of training. It's mainly up to him. The way he wants to go is up to his own thoughts!"

"Old man, think about it. Seeing that you are walking towards the study, you must have something to do. Go get busy first!"

"I'll help you go to rest, stay longer after it's so cold outside!"

"Why do you support me, the old man has not reached the point where he can't walk, so get out of here!"

"Okay, be careful!"

"Go, let's have a good drink after we're done, and see if your drinking capacity has improved!"

"understood!"

After Liu Zhian left, Liu Mingzhi looked at Liu Mingli: "Hurry up and take a rest, I don't wink at you, I don't even know how to seize the opportunity when I give you a chance!"

"Thank you big brother, brother, go take a shower first, I'm so sticky and uncomfortable!"

Liu Mingzhi walked towards the study in the backyard with a complex expression. The older he got, the more sad he became.

I can no longer find the happiness I had seven years ago. Since when did I say goodbye to the lazy days and become laborious?

"The price of growth is too great!"

After saying something melancholy, Liu Mingzhi opened the door of the study.

The study is spotless, and it seems that someone comes to clean it from time to time.

The only one who has the key to the study is Yinger!
Sitting on a chair, Liu Mingzhi made several gestures towards the open window!
"Qinglong, Baihu, Suzaku, Xuanwu!"

"See you, Master!"

"In half an hour, I want to see all the information about the rebellion in Shu!"

"Yes!"

"Is there any news about Qi Ya?"
