This made Li Xu quite confused.
Upon hearing this, the expressions of Li Jiakang and others instantly became complicated.
Seeing their expressions, Li Ping wondered, "Why do you all have those expressions?"
Everyone opened their mouths, but no one said anything. Finally, Hu Guilan whispered, "Someone from the city came to Xiaomei and wanted to promote her, but she refused."
"Huh?" Li Ping was stunned. "Why would you refuse such a good offer?"
"She said that you guys are doing business outside, and Xiaoju is getting married soon. If she leaves again, Mom and Dad will be without their child."
The expressions of the three Li Ping brothers also became extremely complicated. They looked at Li Mei, wanting to say something but not knowing what to say.
Seeing them like this, Li Mei said cheerfully, "You don't have to look at me like that. I did this voluntarily."
After a moment of silence, Li Ping asked with difficulty, "Are you planning to stay in the county forever?"
"I do think so, but I don't know if the organization agrees."
In the past few years, it was because of special circumstances that Liu Wen was able to work as the county's top leader for more than ten years. If he wants to do the same now, it cannot be said that it is absolutely impossible, but it can only be said that the possibility is very small.
Sun Xiu sighed and interrupted, "Xiaomei, I've told you so many times, don't worry about me and your father, your sister-in-law and sister-in-law are here to accompany us."
People in later generations often say that there are two fears in raising children: one is that the child is not good enough and can only be kept by your side, and the other is that the child is too good and it is difficult to meet him or her.
Sun Xiu and his wife experienced this feeling decades in advance.
Although they want their children to stay with them, they want them to have a good future even more.
They had tried to persuade Li Mei to go to the city for a long time, but she just wouldn't listen.
At that time, they were really angry and happy, with mixed feelings.
"That's right, just focus on your future and don't worry about us." Li Jiakang echoed.
Hearing what the two said, Li Mei smiled but said nothing.
Obviously, she didn't listen.
Li Ping gritted his teeth and said, "Xiaomei, I'm the one who will take care of my parents in their old age. If someone needs to stay with them, I should be the one. You go to the city, and I'll stay here. I won't leave after the New Year."
"Brother, this happened half a year ago. I can't go now even if I want to. And if I refuse, the city won't bring it up again for a while. Just go out and do your business peacefully."
Li Ping turned to look at Hu Guilan, "Has it been half a year since this happened?"
"Yeah, it happened in May."
"Then why didn't you ever mention it in your letters?"
"Xiaomei won't let me tell you."
Li Ping fell silent again. After a long while, he finally managed to say, "Xiaomei, big brother owes you."
Li Mei laughed immediately. "What's the point of saying we're all in this together? Besides, if we really owe someone anything, it's Xiaoxu. Without him, our family wouldn't be where we are today, and this wouldn't have happened."
Li Xu twitched his lips and said, "According to your calculation, if the little one gets into trouble outside in the future, it will be my responsibility too?"
"Of course." Li Mei answered bluntly.
Everyone knew that the two of them were just joking and didn't want Li Ping to mention the word "owe" again, but they couldn't help laughing anyway.
After laughing, no one mentioned Li Mei's work anymore. Everyone said a few words briefly and then got busy preparing for tomorrow's trip.
...
Two flowers bloom, each showing its own beauty.
When Fu Qing left the Li family and returned to his own home, he saw his parents sitting in the main room, teasing their grandson and chatting with their eldest son, daughter-in-law and eldest daughter.
When they saw Fu Qing come in, the people in the room were stunned for a moment, but they soon reacted and stood up and surrounded him, looking him up and down while asking about the situation.
I only heard Father Fu ask, "Did you come back with Xiaoxu and the others?"
He knew that Li Ju was about to get married, so he and his wife went to Li's house a few days ago to see if there was any help needed.
Li Jiakang and his wife said that their own relatives would be enough and there was no need for so many people, so they gave up and did not go there again.
"Well, Dad, Mom, are you all right?"
Father Fu chuckled, "I didn't expect you to care about our health. I thought you had forgotten about us."
Fu Qing was stunned. This plot was different from what I expected. You should ask me how much money I earn. Why are you blaming me?
"How can you say that? You are my parents. Even if I forget my son, I can't forget you two."
His eldest son, Fu Kangle, turned pale and said, "You are really something. Others talk about themselves, but you talk about your son."
Fu Kangle sat back on the stool without saying a word, and no matter how his wife pulled him, he refused to get up.
Father Fu ignored him and immediately turned to his wife and said, "See? This little bastard doesn't care about us at all. Others forget themselves but never their parents, but he forgets his son but never his parents."
Fu Qing was even more confused, "Why didn't I worry about you two?"
"You still have the nerve to ask?" Fu's father said disdainfully, "You've been gone for almost a year, and you only sent back a letter. Do you think you care about us? If Xiaoxu hadn't sent a letter saying you were still alive, I would have thought you were dead."
letter?
Fu Qing's face changed. He then remembered that except for sending a letter home when he first arrived in Shenzhen, he had never sent any other letters.
He quickly defended himself, "I didn't mean to not send it. I went to Hong Kong with Lao Li and his friends a few days after arriving in Shenzhen, and stayed there until the day before I came back."
Well, he admitted that he was busy making money and forgot about it...
