Chapter 20 Departure
Chapter 20: Departure
"My father said he would take me on a business trip to see the world."

Hearing Zhao's mother's question, Jingming sat on the edge of the bed, kicked his legs and said with a smile.

"See the world?"

"It's a chaotic situation outside right now. I'd be worried sick if an adult like you went out."

"You still want to take the pillar outside to hang out?"

After hearing Jingming's words, Zhao's mother began to sob softly.

"Mother, there's not much danger. We'll take the Trinity Gate route."

Looking at Zhao's mother wiping her tears with a handkerchief, Jingming walked over from the bed, pulled Zhao's mother's sleeve and shook it gently.

"Nowhere. If something happens to you two, how will I, a woman, live?"

Mother Zhao shook her head and directly rejected Jingming's proposal.

"Mother, how about we go ask Guanyin Bodhisattva?"

"Let's see if the Bodhisattva agrees."

Jingming blinked and then spoke.

"And the teacher said that reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles."

"My father is going to send me to study abroad in the future. That place is even farther away, and my parents won't be able to be with me all the time."

Seeing that Zhao's mother had stopped sobbing, Jingming continued.

"Can't we just not keep this piece of shit?"

"The wealth your father has saved over the years is enough for our family to live a worry-free life for the rest of our lives."

Mother Zhao squatted down, stroked Jingming's cheek and said.

"What do you know as a woman?!"

"If you only care about the country's life and death, how can you avoid it because of good or bad luck?"

When Zhao's father heard that his mother did not allow Jingming to leave a message, he could not help but scold her.

"You can, if you can, why don't you go study abroad?"

"You are so cruel to let Zhu'er, at such a young age, go to a place where he is unfamiliar with the foreigners who bully us."

Mother Zhao hugged Jingming in her arms, but she glared at Father Zhao fiercely.

"Hehe, you also know that we are bullied by foreigners."

"I let Dezhu go abroad to prevent foreigners from bullying us Chinese again!"

"Learn the skills of the foreigners to defeat them. This is what Duke Wei advocates. I believe the same thing!"

"So Ergou, come with me to travel the world in the future!"

Father Zhao frowned and said angrily.

It seems that he was bullied by foreigners when he was young.

Hearing what Zhao's father said, Zhao's mother didn't say anything. She just hugged Jingming, buried her head in Jingming's shoulder and sobbed quietly.

"Plan goes through!"

Hearing what Zhao's father said, Jingming couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth hidden in Zhao's mother's arms.

However, when Jingming heard the word "Ergou" from Zhao's father, the corners of his mouth froze.

In order to help Jingming survive, the Zhao couple gave him the derogatory name Ergou.

Just like the guy next door!
In order to prevent Li Goudan from calling me Ergou, I had to use force several times!
"Okay, how long are you going to hold the baby? Go to bed now."

After a long time, Zhao's father stood up from the bed, carried Zhao's mother to the bed, and then signaled with his eyes for Jingming to get out.

In response to this, Jingming could only shrug his shoulders and walked happily towards his room.

"What, you're going to do business with your father in a few days?"

Early the next morning, Li Muxuan ran into the Jingming yard and screamed.

"Why do you suddenly want to go out into business with your father?"

"Isn't it good to read books and learn to read here?"

Today, Li Muxuan is holding a copy of the Three Character Classic in his hand.

"I'm different from you. I have two older brothers. Even if I'm a second-generation rich kid, I still have my brothers to take care of me."

"I'm the only one in my family, so I have to support myself, right?"

Jingming lay on the recliner, looking at the clouds floating in the sky, and said lightly.

"Are you planning to go out with your father because of what the old man from the troupe said yesterday?"

Li Muxuan rolled his eyes and then asked Jingming.

“That’s also a consideration.”

"The art of Wu Nuo has existed since ancient times. I have to keep it in mind."

Jingming nodded and did not deny it.

There is no need to lie to Li Muxuan, a guy who understands human nature.

"You are just a child, what's the point of following him?"

"It would be better to spend some money and hire a few more guards to go with you." Li Muxuan shook his head and spoke directly.

"Then do you think that if it is a matter concerning cultivators, a few guards will be able to handle it?"

Jingming shook his head and spoke.

"Then can you solve it?"

Li Muxuan asked back.

"Of course it can be solved."

Jingming said with a grin.

"Besides that, I will ask my father to prepare a few more foreign guns."

"With a gun in hand, I am not panicking."

Jingming grinned.

"Is there anything you want to tell me?"

Hearing this, Li Muxuan nodded, and then said to Jingming.

"I'll tell you?"

Hearing Li Muxuan's words, Jingming turned around and saw Li Muxuan's eager eyes.

"Indeed there are."

Jingming nodded and said.

"Then tell me quickly. As long as I can do it for you, I will definitely do it!"

Hearing this, Li Muxuan patted his chest with his hands and said.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

"Be gentle, or you might break your ribs."

Jingming shook his head.

"During the time I'm away, you should study hard, practice calligraphy, and exercise."

"When you have free time, come and see my mother."

Jingming thought for a moment and finally spoke.

"No problem, when you're gone, I will definitely honor your mother on your behalf!"

Li Muxuan nodded and assured.

"That's fine."

Looking at Li Muxuan's bright eyes, Jingming could only respond to Li Muxuan's words with a twitch in the corner of his mouth.

"So when are you leaving?"

Then Li Muxuan asked again.

"In three days."

"Because I want to go along, I need more time to prepare."

Jingming said softly.

"Ah, there are still three days left?"

Li Muxuan bit his finger and then looked at Jingming.

"Since there are still three days left, it should be okay to have fun for three days, right?"

"no problem."

Jingming narrowed his eyes and then spoke.

"Let's go find that bald guy Xia Liuqing."

"After you left, that bald guy probably didn't stay for many days."

"Let's go have some fun first!"

Li Muxuan threw the Three Character Classic in his hand and shouted with laughter.

"By the way, let's see if we can find anything good from that little bald guy!"

As he spoke, Li Muxuan pulled Jingming up from the recliner and headed towards the place where the troupe was performing.

Xia Liuqing, who was practicing martial arts, suddenly felt a chill for no reason.

"Is this what Master meant by 'the cicadas feel the coming of autumn before the wind blows'?!"

"Then I have broken through to the master's realm, right?!"

Thinking of this, Xia Liuqing's eyes lit up and his body couldn't help but tremble.

The day of getting a slap back is just around the corner!

"What are you shaking for? Stand still!"

"PS: Guys, please vote and read more!!"
