The old couple in the east room were also discussing the division of the family property. In the darkness, only Niu Cuihua could be heard sighing, "Old man, what on earth did we raise these heartless people for in the first place?"
When Old Man Li heard the old woman's words, he knew she was upset. How could he not be upset too? This family had lived together for so many years. Although there were occasional quarrels, it was always like this. There was no way they would split up.
Although he thought so in his heart, he said: "It's okay, old woman, we can split up if we want to. As long as the children can live well and the family is harmonious, it's better than anything else. Otherwise, if we don't let the family split up, then the brothers will meet each other like enemies."
Niu Cuihua felt that what Old Man Li said made sense, but she still insisted, "The ten fingers are of different lengths. Why do you all care so much about it all the time?"
Old man Li glanced at his wife and said, "If I had known this would happen, why did we do it in the first place? Besides, aren't we following Old Four? Now you're satisfied. Okay, it's getting late, let's go to bed quickly. We don't know what the village will say tomorrow."
Niu Cuihua said quickly: "Let's see who dares. Then I will tear her mouth apart."
Old man Li listened to his wife's harsh words and turned away silently.
At this time, Li Mingxi was observing silently in the space. She had not expected the reactions of everyone in the Li family after the division. Although she knew that the second aunt had always been complaining that grandma favored her, she never knew that the eldest aunt was the most scheming one. She usually spoke and acted very kindly, and no one knew what she was thinking behind her back.
Li Mingxi was lost in thought when he heard Yue Ze's arrogant voice, "As expected, humans are all so hypocritical."
Li Mingxi could not refute Yue Ze's words, after all, that was the fact.
I saw Li Mingxi looking thoughtful.
Yue Ze immediately said: "Okay, don't think about it, come and look over here."
Upon hearing this, Li Mingxi's attention was immediately diverted, and he saw that the door of the ancient building that had stood tall before was opened.
He asked in surprise, "What's going on?"
"I don't know either. Anyway, it's a good thing that it can be opened. Let's go in and take a look." As it said this, it walked into the ancient building, wagging its tail.
Seeing this, Li Mingxi had no choice but to follow. As soon as he came in, he was shocked by the scene in front of him. He saw that this ancient building had about six or seven floors, but from the outside, it gave people the feeling that it was a whole. It was really magical.
Yue Ze looked at Li Mingxi's wide-open eyes and open mouth, feeling contempt in his heart, but he said, "Shut your big mouth. Now that the Mingyue Tower has been opened to you, it means that you can use everything inside. Now listen to me slowly."
"First, the first floor has some basic books, and the second floor has more advanced books. If you want to learn, you can come here to read. Of course, you can't take the books here out."
Li Mingxi took a quick glance and found that there were so many books here, not only subject books, but also books to improve skills. It can be said that this is a large library, although it may not be useful to him as a child.
Before Li Mingxi could ponder, he heard Yue Ze continue to introduce, "The third floor is mainly some medicinal herbs and other things. You can use them freely. As for the upper floors, they are not opened yet. It is useless to tell you. I will tell you later."
After saying this, it ran away, not caring what Li Mingxi who was standing there thought.
Li Mingxi was confused by Yue Ze's specific explanation today. This arrogant god had no way of being so patient. He must have a purpose. As for what that purpose was, who cares? He'd deal with it later. Right now, the most important thing was to get some sleep.
After thinking about this, Li Mingxi quickly retreated from the space and went to sleep.
At this moment, Shen Mengli was walking on the dark night road with a bag on her back. There was no one on the road, and the roars of wild beasts could be heard from the distance from time to time.
This frightened Shen Mengli, who was already scared, and she was not very familiar with the road because she had just arrived. So she panicked and went in the wrong direction, following the mountain road up the mountain. When she realized something was wrong, it was too late. Since she didn't know the way down the mountain, she didn't dare to act rashly and had to stay where she was.
Listening to the roaring sounds in her ears and the panic in her heart, Shen Mengli fell into deep despair. She always felt that a wild wolf would jump out from somewhere and tear her apart at the next moment. At the same time, she also hated her father Shen Changhai in her heart. It was all because of him that she had to go to the countryside, otherwise she would not be in her current predicament.
At the same time, the educated youth in the brigade were already panicking. When they just came back, they found that Shen Mengli was not there, but they didn't care too much. After all, Shen Mengli and Lin Jianwei had been chatting enthusiastically during this period, so after work, Zhao Xiuer and Wang Hongxia thought that she and Lin Jianwei were dating.
But it was almost late at night and Shen Mengli had not returned yet. Wang Hongxia was the first to get anxious. After all, she was an activist and would never allow her friends to do anything that would damage social morals.
She strode towards the door of the male educated youth dormitory and shouted Lin Jianwei at the top of her voice, regardless of whether the people inside were asleep or not.
Lin Jianwei, who had already fallen asleep, heard someone calling him. He sat up with a start and asked impatiently, "Who is it? What do you want me to do? What's the matter that keeps you awake so late at night?"
Wang Hongxia, who was standing at the door, heard Lin Jianwei's voice and immediately became anxious, "Why are you in the dormitory? Where is Shen Mengli?"
"How should I know? I haven't seen her all day! What do you want me to do if you want to see her?"
Wang Hongxia immediately quit when she heard Lin Jianwei's tone. "Hey, I'm just asking you. Besides, aren't you two dating?"
Lin Jianwei subconsciously retorted, "How could we be dating? Who said that?"
"You two are not in a relationship, so why are you so close to each other every day? Are you being hooligans?" Wang Hongxia sneered.
Lin Jianwei understood what Wang Hongxia meant, and immediately put on his clothes and was ready to argue with her.
Seeing Lin Jianwei's impatience, Li Qiang immediately ran out to smooth things over, "Wang Zhiqing, what's wrong with Shen Zhiqing?"
"I don't know what happened to her, but I can't find her now."
Lin Jianwei immediately became anxious, "Ah, the person is missing, what should I do? Have you looked for him?"
"Not yet, so aren't I here to ask you?" Wang Hongxia said anxiously.
Yang Qiangjun and Zhang Guowei, who were lying down peacefully, also got up.
Yang Qiangjun said, "Wang Zhiqing, go back and check carefully with Zhao Zhiqing to see if Shen Zhiqing left any letters or anything. I'm going to go find the team leader now and ask him to help find him. Guowei, you and Li Qiang will search around the team headquarters first, and then we'll meet up at the team headquarters."
Lin Jianwei was somewhat dissatisfied with Yang Qiangjun's arrangement, but he had no other options, so he kept it to himself. Seeing that no one objected, Yang Qiangjun ran briskly to the captain's house.
