super god ancestor

Chapter 4

The sky turns pale, the roosters crow, and a new day arrives.

Accompanied by the crowing of the cock and the barking of the dog, several members of the Li family got up one after another.

As soon as Chen Qingqian woke up, she felt that there was something important. She recalled the dream from last night, and hurriedly brought a pen and paper.

"The old man had a dream. He seemed to say, let me not interfere with Ru'er's marriage and let her make up her own mind."

"There is also the matter of the boss, what is it?"

As she wrote, she suddenly couldn't remember.

The things in the dream are too vague after all, and they are forgotten quickly. It is not easy to remember the sevens and eights.

"Forget it, just ask the boss later."

After packing up, Chen Qingqian called everyone into the Li Family Hall.

In the lobby, Li Cezhi and his wife Zhou Ping were sitting together.

Li Jingji and Li Ru were also sitting on the other side.

On the high seat, Chen Qingqian was holding a piece of sackcloth.

"Mother, you asked us to gather in the lobby early in the morning, do you have something to say?"

Li Cezhi frowned slightly, wondering.

"Your father entrusted me with a dream last night."

Chen Qingqian said: "He told me a few things in the dream, and asked me to do them."

Did dad have a dream?

The four looked at each other, a little curious.

"Mom, what did Dad say?"

Li Jingji asked.

"Your father said, let me not interfere with your sister's marriage."

"Ru'er, I won't get involved in this marriage anymore."

She smiled and said.

Li Ru was slightly startled, and immediately jumped up: "Thank you, mother."

She was still worrying about how to persuade her mother, but she didn't expect that her father would never forget to tell her about it even in her dream.

Thinking about it, Li Ru felt a little sad again. Her father was separated from her, and she loved her so much, but she would never see her again.

Li Jingji and others also had the same idea, and for a while, the atmosphere in the hall was somewhat gloomy.

"You don't need to be sad, your father is fine."

"He said that he will watch you in the sky, bless you all to be successful, and let the Li family shine."

Chen Qingqian did not have the sadness of the past. After this dream, she already knew that her husband did not leave, but looked at the family in another way.

"Well, we will not let father down."

Li Cezhi nodded solemnly.

"Jingji, I'll leave Ru'er's affairs to you. If Wang Po comes to propose marriage, you can tell Wang Po that you don't need to be a matchmaker."

"Okay, I'll take care of that."

Li Jingji looked a little lazy, and said lightly.

"Thank you brother."

Li Ru laughed, her eyes narrowed into crescent moons, she was really cute.

"Also, Yu'er is almost four years old, and it's time to go to a private school and start studying."

Chen Qingqian specifically instructed Li Cezhi and Zhou Ping: "You two parents should have some snacks, and you should prepare in advance to teach him how to read and read."

Li Cezhi promised again and again, but Zhou Ping, who had always been polite and sensible, was on the sidelines, with a forced smile, as if something was on her mind.

"What's the matter, Zhou Ping, is there something wrong? Could it be that Ce Zhi has bullied you recently?"

Chen Qingqian saw that there was a change in her complexion and asked.

"No, mother-in-law, there's nothing wrong. Cezhi treats me very well."

Zhou Ping quickly covered up.

Seeing that she didn't say anything, Chen Qingqian didn't ask any more questions, but picked up the piece of coarse cloth on which the story about the dream was written, and asked again: "By the way, the head of the house even told me about the boss."

"I can't remember the matter of the boss for a while."

She stared at Li Cezhi, frowned and said, "Boss, what difficulties or worries have you encountered recently?"

"No, mother, I'm all right."

Li Cezhi didn't even think about it, and directly denied it.

Zhou Ping seemed to want to say something, but he glared at her, so she had to give up.

"No?"

Chen Qingqian frowned slightly, a little suspicious, she clearly remembered what her husband told the boss.

It's just that, thinking about it now, I can't think of it, so I can only give up first.

After the conversation, she went to the kitchen to bring the noodle soup early. The six members of the family had breakfast and started to do farm work, herding the oxen and pulling the plow.

"When my mother-in-law asked you before, why couldn't my husband say bluntly that he wanted to be a child?"

In the field, Zhou Ping complained about her husband while planting rice seedlings.

"Father just left, and the house is a mess, waiting for me to deal with it. It's not appropriate to take the merit test at this time."

Li Cezhi was silent for a moment, then said: "Besides, there is only one guide that can leave the hometown, so let's leave it to the thorns."

"He didn't like to stay here since he was a child, and his ambition is everywhere. Let him go out and make a living."

He thought of his withdrawn and stubborn second brother, and couldn't help sighing.

Since childhood, the personality experiences of the two have been completely different.

Although the Li family is not considered a wealthy family, their parents are enlightened and have taught their three children to read and write since they were young. In this regard, both myself and my sister have learned a lot of sage classics.

Only thorns don't like dancing and writing. On the contrary, they envy the knight-errant who can travel around and walk with a sword.

Perhaps it was influenced by his father's storytelling. When he was young, whenever a knight-errant came to Nanshan Village to settle down, he would sneak to find them and ask them if they would bring the Eighteen Palms of the Dragon and the Nine Swords of Dugu to his father's stories. of unique skills.

Naturally, nothing was gained, but Li Jingji was not discouraged.

At the age of 12, the second brother even wanted to worship a lame Taoist as his teacher and travel around with him.

If his parents hadn't arrived in time and beat him and the stinky Taoist priest together, he might really have left with the Taoist priest.

Although his parents left him behind, Thorn's heart still disdained to plow the land and feed the chickens every day, and he didn't want to stay in this palm-sized Nanshan Village, and his temper became more withdrawn and surly.

"The Thorn is not young anymore. The family has treated me better since I was a child. I have treated Thorn a lot. Now, let him go out and venture out as a guide. I will stay and take care of my mother and sister."

Recalling the past, Li Cezhi had mixed feelings.

"What does it mean to treat him badly? You are the eldest son in the family, shouldn't the Li family treat you better!"

"Furthermore, it's because Li Jingji didn't want to study or marry a wife. It's not that the Li family didn't ask him to find a matchmaker!"

Zhou Ping doesn't care too much. Although she is the daughter-in-law of the Li family, in the final analysis, the only thing she cares about is her small family.

Seeing that her husband is unwilling to take the great fame and fame, but wants to give up the opportunity to go out to the second child, how can he agree.

"Ping'er, shut up!"

Seeing her speak so freely, Li Cezhi, who has always been gentle, couldn't help showing a sullen look on his face.

Although Thorn is reticent and rarely expresses his feelings, but the two of them have a mother and a compatriot, how can they allow others to instigate the wall.

"Husband, I don't mean that."

Zhou Ping also knew that she had said the wrong thing, and her attitude was much softer, but the meaning of admonition was still there: "If your husband can pass the Tongsheng examination, we can be regarded as a noble family, and we don't need to be strictly controlled, and we can travel everywhere without guidance."

"Where will the thorns want to go by then?"

"No more."

Li Cezhi was silent for a long time, then walked away.

In fact, there were many reasons why he didn't want to be admitted to Tongsheng, one was wanting to take over the family for his deceased father, and the other was wanting to give his second brother the opportunity to leave this cage, but these two reasons were not the most critical.

The most critical reason is that Li Cezhi is afraid of failing the ranking.

Although the children's exam is only the first hurdle before the long road to fame and fame, the elimination rate is still surprisingly high.

Li Cezhi has studied hard for more than ten years, but he dare not say that he will definitely pass the exam.

What if you fail?

As Zhou Ping said, he is the eldest son of his family, and he is expected to be high. The villagers in Nanshan Village often joke that he wants to get ahead, and in the coming year he will be selected as a scholar.

But if Li Cezhi fails the ranking, how can he be worthy of his parents' training.

This fear prevented him from thinking about taking the exam for the time being.

"If my father was still around, I shouldn't be so worried about gains and losses."

Li Cezhi misses when he was a child, whenever he encountered trouble, as long as he told his father, he could get solutions and answers.

But now, the eldest son of his family has become the backbone, and he has to face everything by himself.
