Li Xiujun was very happy to be coaxed.
But this doesn't mean that Li Xiujun will give up on Gu Qingming's eyes. After getting in the car, she fastened her seat belt and said, "Just getting glasses won't do. Let's go to the hospital for a checkup after we return from this ancestor worship!"
"Forget it!" Gu Qingming stared at the front seriously.
The project is at a critical moment now and he doesn't want to be disturbed by other things.
"No," Li Xiujun muttered, "Ever since we came back from the coastal city, you've been so busy, exhausting yourself every day. I can't stand it anymore!"
The Gu family can't just limit themselves to the capital. Although their position is unshakable, given the current situation, the overseas market is where they should break into...
Since the Gu family has chosen to move forward, there is no reason to stop halfway.
Gu Qingming was the helmsman chosen by the old man. He held a high position and had no say in many matters.
"Xiujun." He sighed softly and explained as the car was moving, "This is a critical moment. I can't let go of the team."
"Okay!" Knowing how hard Gu Qingming worked, Li Xiujun was forced to be sensible.
The school is about three hours away from the Li family's ancestral hall. Compared to Mr. Gu and Mr. Li who set out earlier, they still took a step back!
Not surprisingly, the other members of the Gu family did not show up.
When Li Xiujun and Gu Qingming came over.
Old Master Gu was still complaining, "These ungrateful brats, I'm going to teach them a lesson later. By doing this, are they planning to eat up all their savings in the future?"
Business is all about give and take, whether it's repaying a favor or taking revenge, Mr. Gu doesn't want to force it, but he wants to tell the people of the Gu family that only by being humane and having flesh and blood can the Gu family go long-term.
"Alright." Mr. Li was afraid of angering Mr. Gu. "You're so old, there's no need to do that. Children have their own things to do. Let's not force it!"
Old Master Gu snorted, "They don't have time. Xiaosha does have time. Xiaosan keeps an eye on the company's affairs every day, so why doesn't he say he doesn't have time?"
"Dad!" Gu Qingming said helplessly, "The village chief over there is already prepared. Let's go over there! Don't waste time."
The time for the sacrifice has been determined, and it must be performed at a fixed time to be considered perfect.
Forced to move forward, Mr. Gu's expression remained unsmiling. Li Xiujun noticed this and simply hugged him by the shoulders and acted coquettishly, "Dad Gu, we're all here now, so you can't get angry. Otherwise, if the old ancestors at home see us, how can they even be in the mood to talk to us?"
Mr. Gu could easily coax her, after all, she was his favorite daughter-in-law.
"Okay, okay!" Soon after, the sound of Mr. Gu laughing was heard again.
The road was smooth and they finally arrived at the ancestral hall. After being guided, a slightly dilapidated scene appeared before them.
"After the old house was overthrown, the owners did return, but they ignored it, and you, old man, didn't come back either, so this ancestral hall has been dilapidated year after year. We have done our best!" The village chief is a newly appointed village official. He speaks in a gentle manner and is considered a young man who knows the rules.
"Thank you!" Mr. Li expressed his gratitude while looking at the situation inside the ancestral hall.
He couldn't help but shed tears. Over the years, he, the unfilial descendant, had indeed neglected him!
With a thud, Old Master Li knelt on the futon, "I'm sorry, ancestor, I didn't take good care of our Li family's inheritance. It's me, it was my stupidity back then, it's me who ruined our Li family!"
"Grandpa." Li Xiujun also knelt down and said anxiously, "You haven't wronged anyone. You were forced to do this, and you had no choice."
Mr. Li didn't dare to face it. He sighed, "Xiujun, you don't understand. All these years, I deliberately didn't want to come back. Look at this old place. Who can bear it?"
"My poor son and daughter-in-law died so tragically out there, without even a chance to come back!"
Li Xiujun lowered her head, and thought of her parents who had died for some reason, and her heart was very sad.
They did get better later, but they no longer existed in the days to come.
Old Master Gu came from behind, supported by Gu Qingming. The two men slowly knelt down and looked at the ancestors of the Li family with piety in their eyes.
Mr. Gu said, "The ancestral hall can be repaired if it's old, and people can be happy if they're sad. Didn't Xiujun say that? Our ancestors only wanted to see us well in this life!"
"Brother." He called out to Mr. Li from behind, "You should have gotten over the knot in your heart over the years!"
Since going to the countryside, Mr. Li never mentioned anything about antiques again, because the tragic situation at that time made him hate this thing!
If he was just an ordinary person, he would never have reached that point...
"I'm old." Mr. Li waved his hand. He could no longer tinker with antiques.
"Grandpa, I want to inherit this craft!" When Grandpa Li retreated, Li Xiujun took the initiative.
The Li family's heritage spans hundreds of years, and Li Xiujun believes she has only learned the basics. However, just these are enough to far surpass others.
She wanted to spread the Li family's legacy and let the world know about the exquisiteness of these things...
"If Xiujun wants to learn, it is definitely possible. Let me teach you!" Without waiting for Mr. Li to speak, Mr. Gu spoke first.
It’s not that he doesn’t know the rules, but he knows in his heart that Mr. Li doesn’t want to do this.
Li Xiujun didn't dare to agree, staring at Mr. Li's back with heavy eyes...
After all these years, you still don't want to let go?
Even though he had come to the ancestral hall on his own initiative, Mr. Li still wanted to completely sever the Li family's inheritance.
The field fell silent, and Mr. Gu was very anxious, "Old brother, please say something!"
Master Li leaned down, sighed heavily, and then bowed to the ancestors in front of him, "I'm sorry, I can't do it."
The sacrifice is over.
Mr. Li suddenly felt unwell, so he left early with Mr. Gu.
On Gu Qingming's side, the company suddenly called, and Li Xiujun finally went to the company with her.
In the car, Gu Qingming glanced at Li Xiujun from time to time and said, "Angry!"
Li Xiujun blinked and said indifferently, "I guess so!"
A new era has arrived, and the suffering of the past is gone, but Mr. Li is still entangled in the past.
"Learn from our old man!" Gu Qingming tried to arouse Li Xiujun's interest.
Li Xiujun shook her head expressionlessly.
"I'm just worried about Grandpa. Even though the operation is over, the things that happened in the past are still weighing on him!"
"As a granddaughter, I don't have any way to do anything."
