Siheyuan: A Very Happy Era

Chapter 227 Is there anyone who is as good as him as a grandfather?

Not long after, Li Guofu, Yao Meilan and Li Dawei came back from get off work. As soon as they entered the house, they were startled by Luo Huijuan's charming appearance.

Then, as experienced people, Yao Meilan and Li Dawei guessed the reason immediately, and then they couldn't help but look at Li Guoqiang in surprise, as if they didn't expect Li Guoqiang to have this ability.

As a green hand, Li Guofu naturally would not think about it that way. He just thought that Luo Huijuan was in high spirits because of good things happening to her, so she became so young and beautiful.

Then, Yao Meilan hurriedly pulled Luo Huijuan aside to verify it, and soon confirmed her guess. Then she couldn't help feeling happy for Luo Huijuan, and a little bit of uncontrollable envy.

If you are a woman, who doesn’t want to be younger and more beautiful?

At the same time, on the other side, Li Guoqiang also pulled Li Guofu aside and talked about how he had previously persuaded Zhao Qiuyan to withdraw.

After hearing what happened, Li Guofu's face suddenly turned ugly, and then he lowered his head silently without saying a word.

Obviously, he had opinions about Li Guoqiang's behavior, but because Li Guoqiang was his brother and Li Guoqiang did it for his own good, he did not dare to say anything to Li Guoqiang.

When Li Guoqiang saw Li Guofu like this, he couldn't help feeling helpless.

In fact, he didn't oppose Li Guofu and Zhao Qiuyan being together just because Zhao Qiuyan was a country girl.

After all, with his ability, let alone letting Li Guofu marry a country girl, even if he married eight or ten of them would not be a problem.

The main reason why he did this was because Zhao Qiuyan had a bad character, and her brother Zhao Weimin had coveted Luo Huijuan.

If Li Guofu and Zhao Qiuyan were to get together, would the family be able to live a peaceful life in the future?
In order to make Li Guofu understand the reason behind this, Li Guoqiang pondered for a moment, then directly used Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu as examples, and finally asked a soul-searching question.

"Xiao Fu, do you think Zhao Qiuyan can compare to Aunt Huairu?"

Hearing this, Li Guofu shook his head without even thinking about it.

Almost everyone who has lived in this courtyard thinks that Qin Huairu is a good wife. There are even many young people who have used Qin Huairu as the standard for marrying a wife, and he is naturally no exception.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have always had an inexplicable liking for Qin Huairu's eldest daughter, Xiaodang.

"very good!"

Li Guoqiang nodded immediately after seeing Li Guofu's answer, and then asked: "You think that Aunt Huairu, such a great woman, couldn't make the Jia family's life better after marrying in, so how much better can Zhao Qiuyan's life be for our family if she marries you?"

"Could it be that you hope to die young like Uncle Dongxu?"

"No no no!"

Li Guofu glared, then quickly shook his head and said, "I don't want to be like Uncle Dongxu!"

"That's okay!"

Li Guoqiang was delighted, and then he clapped his hands and said seriously, "You must remember not to get involved with Zhao Qiuyan again in the future!"

"to make!"

Li Guofu hesitated for a moment after hearing this, but finally gritted his teeth and agreed, "Brother, I'll listen to you and never associate with her again."

"now it's right!"

Li Guoqiang smiled slightly, then whispered a compliment.

Afterwards, he didn't say any more and directly sent Li Guofu to invite Luo Jiwu to come for dinner.

Not long after, supported by Li Guofu, Luo Jiwu walked into the room with a slightly frown on his brows, and then, while no one else was paying attention, he glared at Li Guoqiang with some unhappiness.

Seeing this, Li Guoqiang felt slightly happy and then greeted him softly.

He knew that Luo Jiwu blamed him for ruining the relationship between Li Guofu and Zhao Qiuyan, and pushed the date for him to have his great-grandson back to who knows how long.

He had already anticipated this.

After all, in Luo Jiwu's eyes, there is probably nothing more important than inheriting the Luo family's incense.

When Luo Jiwu saw Li Guoqiang's attitude, he immediately understood that he could not expect Li Guoqiang to help him talk to Li Dawei and ask Li Guofu to change his surname to Luo.

Originally, he was thinking that if Li Guoqiang could help him talk to Li Dawei, then this matter would definitely be much easier to handle.

Unexpectedly, Li Guoqiang had no intention of helping him at all, yet he was so eager to fulfill Li Guoqiang's conditions!
Just as he was thinking about how to talk to Li Dawei, Luo Huijuan and Yao Meilan brought in the food one after another.

Among them, most were leftovers from yesterday’s meal, and only one or two were freshly made.

Even so, the whole table was filled to the brim.

Looking at the food, Yao Meilan felt worried for the first time because there was too much food, and then she hurriedly asked others to eat more.

In particular, a lot of meat was stuffed into Li Guoqiang so that he could nourish his body and try to make Luo Huijuan pregnant in the next two days.

While eating, Li Guoqiang suddenly thought of something and said to Li Dawei in a hurry: "Dad, our family is not short of money now. I think you should stop going out to work odd jobs."

"If you feel too idle, you can go play chess with someone, or go fishing outside the city. Just do whatever you like!"

"never mind!"

Li Dawei's face flashed with a hint of excitement when he heard this, then he shook his head and said, "I've been busy for so many years, and I'm not used to being idle all of a sudden."

"dad!"

Seeing that Li Dawei refused, Li Guoqiang changed his mind and quickly persuaded him, "Now that Sister Juan and I are married, maybe one day I can give you a grandson. If you continue to work at the post station and tire yourself out, how can you help Sister Juan and me take care of the grandson?"

"This"

When Li Dawei heard the word "grandson", his eyes widened instantly, and then he nodded hurriedly and agreed, "Okay, then I'll listen to you. When I go to the post station this afternoon, I'll quit my job."

After saying that, he secretly glanced at Luo Huijuan's belly and thought that if everything went well, he would be able to hold his grandson in his arms by the beginning of next spring!

Seeing him like this, Li Guoqiang, Luo Huijuan, Li Guofu and Yao Meilan couldn't help but laugh. Only Luo Jiwu had a slightly gloomy face and felt jealous of Li Dawei.

In fact, when he thought that Li Dawei was able to raise the sickly Li Guoqiang because he married the daughter-in-law of the Luo family, and now Li Guoqiang married the granddaughter of the Luo family and was going to have a child for the Lin family, he felt as if the Lin family had taken away his inheritance.

In order to avoid such a disaster from really happening, he called Li Dawei to his room directly after dinner, and prepared to have a good talk with Li Dawei about having Li Guofu change his surname back to Luo.

Originally, he had already made up his mind that if Li Dawei did not agree, the worst that could happen was that he would kneel down to Li Dawei.

However, he never expected that after hearing his request, Li Dawei immediately nodded and said, "Grandpa, as long as Xiaofu is willing to change his surname, I have no objection."

"Really?"

When Luo Jiwu heard Li Dawei's answer, he was suddenly delighted, and then asked in disbelief: "Are you really willing to let Xiaofu change his surname? Are you kidding me?"

"Look at what you said!" Hearing this, Li Dawei couldn't help but explain with some amusement: "After all, no matter what Xiaofu's last name is, he is still my child!"

"Also, Lan Zi and I have already discussed that when Xiao Fu gets married and has children, we will adopt one of the children to the Luo family to carry on the family line. Now that Xiao Qiang is well, there is no need to go through so much trouble."

"As long as Xiaofu is willing, I won't stop him!"

Hearing such heartfelt words, Luo Jiwu couldn't help feeling ashamed, but was immediately replaced by surprise.

In his opinion, since Li Dawei has already agreed, it means that Li Guofu's change of surname to Luo is a foregone conclusion.

And the Luo family's incense finally has hope of being passed down.

Afterwards, he immediately asked Li Dawei to call Li Guofu over and prepared to have Li Guofu go to the police station in the next two days to change his surname.

By the way, he also wanted to transfer the Luo family's house to Li Guofu's name and give it to Li Guofu as a new house for his wife, to prevent Li Guoqiang and Luo Huijuan from occupying it.

In his opinion, since Luo Huijuan is already married, she is no longer a member of the Luo family and naturally cannot occupy the Luo family's house anymore.

Li Dawei naturally didn't know what he was thinking.

Even if he knew, he wouldn't care much.

Not to mention anything else, just the 1000 yuan that Li Guoqiang brought back home was enough to buy a good house.

What's more, the Li family already has a house, so there is no need for them to worry about the Luo family's house.

Soon, Li Guofu was called over, and when he heard Luo Jiwu ask him to change his surname, he was immediately confused.

"No! Grandpa, what do you want to do? Why do you suddenly want me to change my last name to Luo?"

"that."

Luo Jiwu hesitated for a moment, then patiently explained, "Qiangzi's body has been cured, and he has married your sister! So you won't be needed to pass on the legacy of the Li family in the future."

"Also, you should know that the blood flowing in your body is originally from our Luo family, so it is natural that you will pass on the incense to our Luo family."

"Now that I've put it this way, you should understand why I asked you to change your last name!"

"This"

Li Guofu opened his mouth, then asked worriedly, "Do my parents know about this?"

"Ok!"

Luo Jiwu nodded, then said softly: "I just told your father about this, and he said that as long as you are willing, it's fine!"

Hearing this, Li Guofu felt complicated, and vaguely had a feeling of being abandoned.

Then, he shook his head vigorously to drive away those negative feelings, and then said in a muffled voice: "Grandpa, this is really a bit too sudden. Can you give me some time to think about it carefully?"

"What are you thinking about?"

Luo Jiwu's face darkened, and he began to scold with some dissatisfaction: "What else is there to think about in this matter? If you still recognize me as your grandfather, you should be obedient and change your surname in the next two days, and then move your household registration back."

"When you have finished these things, I will ask someone to find you a good girl to be your wife. I hope you can have two children a year, so that our Luo family can prosper."

"I"

Li Guofu looked at Luo Jiwu's uncompromising attitude, as well as his attitude that he was just a tool to pass on his family's teachings, and he suddenly felt indescribable discomfort.

In fact, he was not so resistant to changing his surname. What he resisted was Luo Jiwu's commanding tone.

But, who can blame him for being a filial and obedient child?

After a moment of silence, he nodded and agreed, "Okay! I'll listen to you. I'll go ask about changing my surname in the next two days!"

After saying that, he turned around and walked out without waiting for Luo Jiwu to say anything, and then went straight to find Li Guoqiang who was discussing with Luo Huijuan where to go for a walk.

Li Guoqiang saw Li Guofu's gloomy face and immediately guessed what happened. He smiled and said jokingly, "What's wrong with you? Why do you look so sad?"

"Brother, grandpa asked me to change my last name!"

Li Guofu glanced at Luo Huijuan who was sitting next to him, and then spoke with a look of grievance.

Hearing this, Luo Huijuan couldn't help but frown, while Li Guoqiang nodded and said, "Yes, I know!"

"what?"

Li Guofu was slightly stunned, then asked in surprise: "You know?"

"This is what happened!"

Seeing that Luo Huijuan was also looking at him with confusion, Li Guoqiang told her about how Luo Jiwu had forged a letter and forced Luo Huijuan to find a son-in-law to carry on the Luo family's bloodline.

"Sister, is this really the case?"

After hearing what Li Guoqiang said, Li Guofu hurriedly asked Luo Huijuan for confirmation.

"Ok!"

Luo Huijuan hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded to indicate that this was all true. Then, worried that Li Guofu would overthink it, she hurriedly continued to explain, "Xiaofu, in fact, grandpa was just confused for a moment, and now he has realized his mistake."

"Humph!"

Upon hearing this, Li Guofu couldn't help but speak indignantly: "I don't think he treats us as his grandchildren at all!"

"It's the same with you and me. You want to do something without asking for our opinions at all."

"Is there anyone who is as good as him as a grandfather?"

"okay!"

Seeing that Li Guofu was getting more and more excited, Li Guoqiang waved his hands and advised: "No matter what, he is your grandfather, you must not get angry with him."

"If you really don't want to change your last name, then you can go talk to our parents. I believe they will support you."

"Okay, I'll go talk to them now!"

When Li Guofu heard this, his eyes lit up slightly, and then he quickly turned around and ran towards the kitchen.
