Sun Xiu added, "Master, you know what, his second uncle arranged this matter very well."
Li Jiakang laughed out loud. "What can he arrange? This is all discussed by my father and me. He just needs to follow the instructions."
Everyone: ...
Then the smile on Li Jiakang's face disappeared again, and he sighed, "Ah, I just hope that this won't happen."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone fell silent.
No one wants the worst to happen.
Finally, Sun Xiu forced a smile and said, "Don't worry, things shouldn't come to this."
In fact, all we can do at this time is to do our best and leave the rest to fate.
All the methods we think of are to avoid this kind of thing from happening.
After a while, Li Xu asked, "Mom, after my cousin comes to work, should my uncle's family also make preparations?"
Sun Xiu thought for a moment and said, "I'll tell them when the time comes. It's up to them whether they're prepared or not. Besides, your uncle's family is large, and there are many local Sun clansmen as well. I don't think many of them would dare to have any bad intentions."
Li Xu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Mom, don't be so sure. We must prepare for the worst. Otherwise, it will be too late if something really happens. Maybe the first ones to take action will be the people of our clan."
Li Xu had heard a lot about the dirty deeds among his own clan before, and the bigger the family, the more unavoidable it was.
For example, the heinous act of "eating the whole family."
Many of them were done by people of the same ethnic group.
Sun Xiu glared at him and angrily said, "You know nothing. Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand anything."
Sun Xiu's sudden rebuke shocked everyone.
You should know that Li Xu behaved very well during this period. Sun Xiu didn't even say a harsh word to him, let alone scold him.
Everyone was confused and didn't know what was wrong with what Li Xu said.
Only Li Jiakang smiled.
He seemed very happy to see Li Xu being scolded.
Li Ping also scratched his head, "Mom, I think what Xiaoxu said makes sense. Why are you so angry?"
Li Jiakang glanced at him and said, "That makes no sense. You two don't know anything, so stop talking nonsense."
Hearing him say this, Li Ping immediately became unhappy, "Dad, I'm in my twenties after all, what don't I know?"
"Did you know that our family used to have guns?"
Li Ping: ...
Everyone: ...
These words immediately blocked Li Ping's words, and he stood there in disappointment without saying anything.
Seeing him like this, Li Jiakang said again, "Look, you don't know. Then do you know what the situation is like for your mother's people?"
You know what, this question really stumped everyone.
Seeing that his brothers were speechless after being confronted by Li Jiakang.
Li Mei stepped forward and said, "Dad, we are young and don't know some things. Just tell us directly."
Only a girl like Li Mei could say this, and it was a way of giving everyone a way out.
Li Jiakang nodded and said amiably, "By the way, if you don't understand something, just ask."
Then he focused on Li Ping and Li Xu, "You should also learn more from Xiaomei."
Li Xu and Li Ping looked at each other, both feeling helpless.
But Li Jiakang is a father after all, so they can't say much.
Li Xu wondered in his heart whether Li Jiakang was born to be incompatible with his son. It was understandable if he said this to himself, but why did he bring up Li Ping?
In fact, how could he know that Li Jiakang was just in a bad mood because of Li Jiafu and the others, so he saw the opportunity to vent...
Li Ping turned to look at Sun Xiu and said, "Mom, if there's anything wrong with what we said, just tell me."
Li Xu also agreed, "Yes, Mom, there are some things we don't know, just tell us directly."
Li Jiakang:...
He wondered if these two people were rebellious by nature.
How can you not respect him as a father?
Think again about Li Chen’s character.
Li Jiakang suddenly became extremely worried about his future retirement life...
Sun Xiu sighed when he heard the two's questions, and then explained, "Our Sun family has ancestral precepts. It is strictly forbidden to rob family members' property. And everyone obeys and acts according to the ancestral precepts. Our family is also a beneficiary of it."
Everyone was stunned after hearing this.
I wondered how this brought up the past?
Li Ping quickly asked, "Mom, our family has benefited from this? How come we didn't know about it?"
"I'm talking about my mother's family."
Everyone suddenly realized.
But I suddenly became interested. After all, who doesn’t like gossip?
Li Mei also showed an excited expression, "Mom, please tell us about it so that we can broaden our horizons."
Sun Xiu glanced at everyone and asked, "Do you know how your uncle and I grew up?"
Ah, everyone looked at each other and wondered if there was something hidden here?
Then Li Ping said hesitantly, "Mom, wasn't it my grandma who raised you all?"
"That's both true and false. I wasn't even ten when your grandfather passed away, and your uncles were even younger. Do you know how difficult it was for a woman to raise several children during wartime?"
After hearing this, several people showed shocked expressions on their faces.
Yes, they used to think that it was the grandmother who raised several children alone.
But I never thought how difficult it would be at that time.
Not to mention the past, even now it is an extremely difficult thing.
It's simple. A family without a pillar will be bullied to death, and the food produced by a woman alone is not enough to support the family.
Then Li Ping thought for a moment, "Mom, are you saying it's because of the Sun family's ancestral precepts?"
Sun Xiu nodded. "Yes, one of the Sun family's ancestral precepts instructs descendants to unite and work together. That's why we received so much help from our clansmen back then, and that's why we were able to grow up."
Only then did they understand why Sun Xiu was so angry just now.
It turned out that since he had received such great kindness from the Sun family, he naturally would not allow others to talk nonsense.
Even his own son is the same.
However, Li Xu hesitated for a moment. "Mom, after so many years, how can you guarantee that the current Sun family members can still adhere to the ancestral teachings?"
To be honest, Li Xu had heard a lot about ancestral teachings before.
But it is rare to find a family whose descendants can hold on to it.
Especially with the changes of the times, in later generations, I have basically never heard of any family still holding on.
Sun Xiu suddenly laughed. "I can't guarantee that, but many of them have benefited from this, and there are several elders above us. If anyone dares to mess around, they won't let them go. What's more, since your uncle's family has enough food this time, I'm sure they will send some to the clan members."
