At the dinner table, after taking a few bites of food, Young Master Liu chuckled and told him about his plan to go to the Western Regions.
When he told this matter, he immediately attracted the attention of everyone except Qi Yun, the three princesses and the other beauties, and Liu Yiyi and the others.
Liu Zhi'an swallowed the food in his mouth slowly, frowned slightly and turned to look at Young Master Liu and asked: "What, you want to bring Yun girl, Lian'er girl, Rongrong girl and the other sisters with you?" Going back to the Western Region to visit relatives?"
Liu Mingzhi gently turned the wine glass in his hand, turned to look at Gumo Rongrong, and nodded with a slight smile.
"Yes, ten years have passed since Rongrong came to our Dalong and then when she married me as my wife.
In the past ten years, she has not even returned home once.
Today, the world is at peace and the people live and work in peace and contentment.
As my husband, it’s time for me, the young master, to compensate her and take her back to the Western Regions for a kiss. "
After Liu Zhi'an heard Mr. Liu's explanation, he turned to look at his daughter-in-law, Gumo Rongrong, and sighed sadly.
“Suddenly, it’s been ten years.
Day by day, life goes by really fast. "
Young Master Liu chuckled a few times and said with the same sad smile: "Hahaha, who says it's not the case!"
Liu Zhi'an was silent for a while, put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hand, smiled and drank a glass of wine.
"After so many years, it's really time for you to take Rongrong back to the Western Regions. When do you plan to set off?"
Liu Mingzhi ate the chicken drumstick in his hand and smiled lightly as he refilled Liu Zhi'an's glass of wine.
“Of course, the sooner the better, and the fastest is no more than two months.
Now is the season of March and April. The wind is sunny and the weather is neither cold nor hot. It is a good time to go on the road.
It will not be easy if we wait until the summer heat. "
"Well, you have thought carefully. In that case, then act according to your decision."
"Okay." Young Master Liu smiled and nodded, picked up the wine glass and clinked it with Liu Zhi'an.
"Old man, I would like to propose a toast to you."
"cheers."
Mrs. Liu put down the bowl and chopsticks in her hand, looked at Young Master Liu and asked softly: "Zhi'er, Yun'er, Yan'er, Rongrong, when will you be able to come back from your trip to the Western Regions this time?"
Upon hearing Madam Liu's inquiry, Young Master Liu immediately looked towards his mother.
"Mother, apart from the time spent on the road, we also have to stay in the Western Region for a while.
This year, I probably won’t be able to come back before this year. "
After hearing the answer given by her son, Mrs. Liu sighed softly.
"It's been so long."
"Mother, there is nothing we can do about this. The countries in the Western Region are really too far away from our dragon.
Just traveling will probably take two to three months.
That's it, the child said it quickly.
If something unexpected happens while on the road, it will take even longer.
Three to four months, or even half a year is not impossible. "
“I understand for my mother, I understand for my mother.
Since Yun'er and Yan'er have already discussed it, you can do whatever you want. "
"Hey, thank you for your understanding, mother."
"By the way, Zhi'er, after you leave Beijing, what should you do with matters above the court?"
Liu Mingzhi turned sideways slightly and glanced at the children at the dining table next to him with a faint smile.
"Mother, as far as the current situation in the world is concerned, although the government affairs above the court are a little busy, nothing major has happened."
With the presence of all the beloved ministers in the Ten Kings Palace and the Cabinet, even though I, the king of a country, am no longer in the capital, the political affairs of the court can still run in an orderly manner. "
When Mrs. Liu heard her son's answer, she chuckled and shook her head.
"Hahaha, that's right. Since you dare to take Yun'er and the others with you so confidently and politely to leave the capital, you must have already arranged everything.
In this case, for my mother’s sake, I don’t have to ask too many questions. "
"Hahaha, don't ask too much, don't ask too much, mother, you care about the child."
Mrs. Liu looked at Young Master Liu and sighed softly: "Oh, Zhi'er, you are already this age now.
You see many things more clearly and transparently than I do, my mother.
Therefore, there are some things that I won’t nag too much for my mother’s sake.
For my mother, I only have one sentence here. You must remember it. "
Young Master Liu hurriedly sat up straight, looked at Mrs. Liu solemnly and nodded vigorously.
"Mother, please speak. My children are all ears."
"Zhi'er, when we go to the Western Region, the mountains are high and the roads are long. You must take good care of your health."
After hearing Mrs. Liu's explanation, Mr. Liu nodded without hesitation.
"Yes, yes, yes, I understand. My mother's words will definitely be remembered by me."
Madam Liu smiled lightly and glanced kindly at Qi Yun, the third princess, Qinglian, the queen, Xue Bizhu and the other sisters.
"Girl Yun'er, girl Yunshu, girl Qingshi, girl Junyao, you sisters too, you must take good care of your own health."
Qi Yun, Qi Ya, Hu Yan Yunyao, Ling Weier and all the other sisters immediately looked at Madam Liu and nodded a few times at the same time.
"Daughters-in-law and sisters understand, thank you very much for your concern, mother."
Mrs. Liu smiled slightly, waved her hand, and picked up her bowls and chopsticks again.
"Okay, okay, eat, keep eating."
"Yes, yes, yes, mother, you should eat too."
After Liu Zhi'an finished eating the food in the bowl, he picked up the pot and poured a cup of tea.
"Bastard."
Young Master Liu looked stunned and looked up at Liu Zhi'an.
"Old man, what's wrong?"
Liu Zhi'an stood up, caressed the tea lid in his hand and walked towards the flower pot on the wooden stand next to him.
"It just so happens that I also have something to tell you."
"Old man, tell me, this young master is listening!"
Liu Zhi'an looked at the orchids in front of him, smiled and took a sip of tea.
"I and your mother, we plan to set off back to our hometown of Jinling in three days."
"What? Set off back to Jiangnan in three days?"
"Yes, we will set off in three days."
Young Master Liu frowned slightly, picked up the wine glass, stood up, and walked to Liu Zhi'an's side and stopped.
"Old man, you live well here, why do you suddenly want to go back to Jiangnan?"
Liu Zhi'an looked at the helpless expression on Young Master Liu's face and silently chewed the tea leaves between his teeth.
"You bastard, what do you mean by suddenly going back to Jiangnan?
Don't forget, just after the New Year, I have already told you that your mother and I are going back to Jiangnan.
At that time, you said that the three siblings, Yiyi, Chengzhi and Chenggan, were about to get married.
My husband and mother will continue to stay in the capital because their granddaughter and grandson have to deal with their own life-long affairs.
Now, Yiyi girl has got married, and the two brothers Chengzhi and Chenggan are also busy with their marriage.
There is nothing else in the capital that requires my help, so I will naturally go back to Jiangnan. "
Young Master Liu remained helpless for a while, then raised his head and drank all the wine in his glass.
"Old man, you are right, there is definitely nothing in the capital that requires you to finish.
However, you have to know that now even the second brother and several younger brothers and sisters have come to the capital with their children.
It’s so lively for our family to live together. Why do you and your mother have to go back to Jiangnan? "
As Young Master Liu spoke, he turned his head slightly and looked at Liu Mingli, Liu Xuan, and Liu Mingjie's brothers.
Liu Mingli, Liu Xuan, Liu Mingjie, brothers and sisters noticed the eldest brother's gaze and immediately raised their heads and looked towards Young Master Liu.
Looking at the eldest brother's eyes full of meaning, the three siblings instantly understood what Mr. Liu meant.
The three Liu Mingli brothers exchanged quick glances with each other, quickly put the bowls and chopsticks in their hands on the table, stood up and walked towards Liu Zhi'an.
Liu Da, who had never seen this situation, smiled lightly and pressed the tip of his nose a few times with his fingers. He raised his wine glass and gestured to Wenren Yunshu who was drinking tea.
"Yunshu."
"I'm here, husband, what's the matter?"
Liu Mingzhi chuckled and pointed to the wine bottle on the table: "Bring me a bottle of wine for my husband."
"Hey, here it comes."
Wenren Yunshu responded with a sweet voice, quickly picked up the wine bottle on the side, and walked up to Young Master Liu with a smile on his face.
"Husband, drinks."
Liu Mingzhi nodded slightly, took the wine bottle from the beauty's hand with a chuckle, and refilled himself with a glass of wine.
"Yunshu, go back and drink tea."
"Hey, I know."
Liu Xuan stood next to Liu Zhi'an, and gently fiddled with the orchids in the flowerpot with her slender fingers.
“Dad, eldest brother is right.
Now my son, the eldest brother and his sisters-in-law, the second brother and his sisters-in-law, and the younger brother and our brothers and sisters are all living in the capital.
At this time, you and your mother will go back to your hometown in Jinling. In such a big home, only you two elders and some servants and maids are left.
In this case, don't you feel lonely?
Otherwise, just listen to your elder brother and stay in the capital together. "
As soon as Liu Xuan finished speaking, Liu Mingli immediately agreed: "The elder brother and the younger sister are right, and I agree with them, my dear.
Besides, I just came to the capital from my hometown in Jinling with my wife and children, and it didn't even last ten days.
As a result, you and your mother will return to Jinling.
You are not..."
Liu Zhian raised his eyebrows and raised his hand to plan Liu Mingli's words.
"Okay, you don't need to say any more."
"father!"
Liu Zhi'an glanced at Young Master Liu, the four Liu Xuan brothers and sisters, chuckled and shook their heads.
"You brothers and sisters don't need to persuade me any more. I have already decided on returning to Aurous Hill.
Three days later, the journey officially started. "
"Old man, you!"
"father."
"Oh, Daddy."
"Dad, you can stay here for a while and then go back."
Liu Zhi'an shook his head without hesitation and walked to his seat holding the bottomed tea cup.
“I said, you don’t need to persuade me, you just don’t need to persuade me.
This matter is settled. "
Seeing Liu Zhi'an's determination, Liu Mingli, Liu Xuan, and Liu Mingjie all looked at Young Master Liu and gave him helpless looks.
Young Master Liu saw the helpless expressions of the three of them and nodded silently.
Then, he turned his head and glanced at Liu Zhi'an, and drank the wine in the glass in one breath.
"Well, since you have said so, old man, I will no longer advise you.
If you want to go back, then go back. "
Liu Zhi'an picked up the pot and filled himself with a cup of tea, and gave Young Master Liu an annoyed look.
"You bastard, this should have happened a long time ago."
Young Master Liu's face froze, and he shook his head with a wry smile.
"Uh! Hehehe!"
Looking at Young Master Liu with a wry smile on his face, Qi Run picked up his wine glass and gestured to Young Master Liu.
"Zhi'er, let's have a drink."
Young Master Liu immediately turned his attention to Qi Run and responded cheerfully by raising his glass.
"Okay, okay, my son-in-law has a drink for his father-in-law."
"cheers."
"cheers."
After the glass of wine went down his throat, Qi Run picked up the wine bottle and refilled himself with another glass of wine.
"Zhi'er, in fact, not only my father-in-law and mother-in-law want to go to Jiangnan, I and your mother-in-law are also going back."
Young Master Liu, who was pouring wine, suddenly raised the wine bottle and looked at Qi Run, Mrs. Qi and the old couple with stunned expressions.
"What? Father-in-law, mother-in-law, you two also want to go back together?"
"Yes, I and my father-in-law have already discussed it and go back together."
Qi Liang, who was on the side, heard the words between Young Master Liu and suddenly looked up at Qi Run and Mrs. Qi with complicated expressions.
"Dad, mother, you guys?"
Qi Run chuckled and drank a glass of wine, watching Qi Liang wave his hand casually.
"Liang'er, don't speak yet."
"Me! Me! Okay."
"Zhi'er, come on, let's have another drink."
"My son-in-law does it first, out of respect."
"Zhi'er, I, your mother-in-law, and we are coming to the capital with our father-in-law and mother-in-law this time for two things.
First, it was to see the wedding banquet of Yiyi, Chengzhi, Chenggan and their three siblings.
Secondly, I just want to see Qi Liang and his daughters-in-law, as well as his grandchildren and granddaughters below.
Now, Yiyi and his three siblings have finished the banquet, and Qi Liang and his family have also met.
What needs to be done has been done, and everyone who needs to be seen has been met.
It's time for us to return to Beijing. "
Young Master Liu was silent for a moment, smiled and drank a glass of wine.
"Father-in-law, you have discussed this with the old man."
"Hahaha, to be honest with you, it is indeed the case."
Seeing Qi Run's straightforward answer, Liu Dashao naturally felt embarrassed and said nothing more.
"In this case, my son-in-law will no longer force you to stay.
Let's eat, let's continue eating. "
As soon as Mr. Liu finished speaking, the little cutie's smiling voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
"Hehehe, stinky daddy."
The cute little voice suddenly sounded, and Young Master Liu was suddenly frightened.
He hurriedly turned his head and looked aside, only to realize that the little cutie had arrived beside him at some point.
Looking at the cute little girl with a smile on her face, Young Master Liu immediately rolled his eyes angrily.
"Stinky girl, when did you come?
You are a ghost, you don’t make any sound when you walk. "
"Hehehe, good daddy, is it fun over there in the Western Region?"
"Huh? What do you mean by that?"
"I also want to visit the Western Regions."
"Do you want to go to heaven?"
