Chapter 372
He deliberately slowed down, and when the carriage stopped at the gate of the Li family, the Li family had already received the news, and many people had arrived at the Li family.

However, to the surprise of the two of them, there was actually a funeral banner hanging in front of the gate of the Li family at this time.

Let alone Lin He this time, even Li Changhui was surprised.

Changsheng didn't say that he had already left.

The two looked at each other. It seemed that Li Changsheng and Xiuling didn't know about it either. It probably happened last night or today.

The funeral banners hadn't been finished yet, and there were still people busy at the moment, and the helpers were surprised to see the two coming.

"Changhui? When did you come back? You were talking about finding someone to send you news."

An old man came out. He was the village chief Li Yongkang, uncle Li Changhui. He knew a lot of rules. No matter who held weddings and weddings, he would help manage them.

Li Changhui got out of the carriage with a heavy face: "Uncle, I received a letter from Changsheng yesterday, and I was thinking about my mother's body, so I brought Xiaohe and An'er back overnight."

At this time, Lin He also pulled Li An, who was still yawning, out of the carriage. The three of them all looked haggard and dusty. The young Li An was still yawning and rubbing his eyes when he got off the carriage.

No one would doubt the truth of Li Changhui's words, and the fact is that they rushed back overnight, left without changing clothes yesterday, went to the fields during the day, and now they still smell of sweat.

The uncle nodded and looked into the carriage: "Where are the two older ones? Why didn't they come back?"

Li An had just received his mother's advice, and now he heard someone asking his elder brother and second brother, he immediately lifted his spirits: "Elder brother and second brother went to study in Guanzhou Prefecture, and they are not at home now."

As soon as the words came out, the people who were walking towards this side were all surprised. Li Yongkang was also taken aback, and asked, "Guanzhou Prefecture? Didn't you study in Nanzhi County?"

Li An continued: "The eldest brother and the second brother are too smart, they were taken to Guanzhou Mansion by the master, I don't know when they will come back."

Li Changhui tapped Li An on the head lightly, signaling him to shut up, and then reluctantly explained.

"Sigh, I didn't expect such a coincidence. Half a month ago, Yu'er Hao'er and the master left, saying that they were taking them out to see the world. Now we don't know where the two children have gone."

Li Changhui had a sad expression on his face, Lin He looked a little depressed, but fortunately, Li An didn't seem to feel anything, and was looking around.

This is also in line with their personality, Li Changhui is a 'good old man', but he was forced by his parents to join the army, and his temperament has changed a bit when he came back, but his essence is still kind.

Lin He came back with Li Changhui, spent only three days with his in-laws, and then separated, and then left Xiang'an Village and went to Yonghe Town.

Li An was similar to Lin He, and Li An was still a baby when he came back, so he probably didn't know much about his grandparents.

In this way, the two of them didn't have any sad emotions, which was normal.

Li Changhui explained the situation of the two children, and continued to ask the uncle a little uncomfortable: "Uncle, what happened to my mother? We met Changsheng when we were in town. Didn't it mean that my mother is still fine?"

"Sigh." Li Yongkang sighed: "It's just the anger that fell at dawn today. Changsheng didn't go back to the village last night, so naturally he doesn't know."

With that said, Li Yongkang patted Li Changhui on the shoulder: "Anyway, it's good that you can come back. Although your parents don't like you, they are their own flesh and blood after all, so you should give her a ride."

Because Li Changhui and Lin He threatened twice back then, Li Yonglin and Liu Cuifang, as well as two younger brothers and daughters-in-law, were terrified of them. They often spoke ill of them in the village on weekdays, but they dared not speak out about the threats. .

On the contrary, Li Changhui, even if his parents didn't like it, every year during the holidays, even if he didn't show up, he would definitely send something back.

In the eyes of others, doesn't this mean that Li Changhui is filial, but other people don't know what to do?
So even if only the three of them came back at this moment, in the eyes of others, it must be impossible for Li Changhui to do it on purpose.

At this moment, a voice full of disgust came from the gate: "What are you doing back, my Li family doesn't welcome you!"

It's Li Yonglin, Li An's grandfather.

Lin He was also a little frightened when he saw him.

Her impression of this father-in-law is still three years ago, but at first glance, he seems to be nearly ten years older than three years ago!
The beard and hair are all white, the person has lost a lot of weight, the hair is a bit messy, the back is slightly bent, and he looks old.

Looking at the oldest uncle, he seems to be much younger.

But this is not important, what is important is that the disgust in Li Yonglin's eyes is almost materialized.

Lin He still couldn't figure out how someone could harbor such malice towards his son.

Fortunately, they are not the real son and daughter-in-law of the Li family, otherwise I don't know how to be sad.

However, Li Changhui kept his current identity in mind, and when he heard Li Yonglin's words, he immediately looked sad: "Father, at least let the children and I see mother for the last time."

"The third one!" Li Yongkang couldn't stand it anymore, and immediately scolded: "It's fine on weekdays, Changhui rushed back all the way, don't you even let them in?"

As he spoke, he glanced at the courtyard in front of him: "Speaking of which, this courtyard is covered by Changhui's military salary, so don't go too far."

What he said made Li Yonglin's face turn blue and purple, and there were more whispers around him.

Lin He listened carefully, and it was nothing more than that the second elder was unfair to the boss or something.

Li Yonglin was humiliated by his elder brother and talked about by the villagers, so he snorted coldly, shook his hands and left.

Li Yongkang sighed, and patted Li Changhui on the shoulder: "Go in and have a look, I will ask your aunt to clean up your house later, and go back to your own home to rest at night."

At this moment, I can't go back right away, so I have to wait until after the funeral. Although the Li family has a big yard, it's no problem to live with three more people.

But with Li Yonglin's attitude, it is obvious that Li Changhui and the others cannot be kept at home, so it is better to go home and relax.

Li Changhui was grateful: "Thank you uncle."

Then he took out a handful of broken silver from his arms: "Uncle, we bought land near the county seat, and we haven't harvested it yet, and there is not much money left from the money we made before. The 20 taels should be enough for my mother's funeral." .”

Is there enough to use up completely?
Li Yongkang also knows the difficulty of settling down and buying a property. In addition, Li Changhui has only made some money in the Mala Tang shop in addition to the land in the past few years.

This 20 taels is a lot.

"You, just be honest and soft-hearted, don't worry, leave this matter to the uncle, and you can't let you pay the money and not get well."

Li Changhui forced a smile, looked at Lin He again, and then led his wife and children into the courtyard.

As for the discussions outside, he didn't take it to heart at all.
