There is no good feast.
Throughout the dinner table, Ying's smile never stopped.
And the uncle seemed to want to show off.
At the dinner table, the uncle deliberately asked Zilu what he thought of the current situation in the world.
"Zi Lu thinks that in this world, he should be Chu Qiang!"
Facing a table of rare and delicious dishes, Zilu ate and said something casually.
Who would have thought.
The uncle and uncle became interested after hearing this.
I thought that Zilu would just talk casually and they wouldn't take it to heart.
After all, in their hearts, no one in Yan's family could understand him.
Who would have thought that Zilu's tone was quite surprising.
"Why not Qin Qiang or Zhao Qiang?"
The uncle asked with a smile.
at the moment.
The uncle didn't know that Zilu had already complained about him a lot at this time.
Zilu knew that in the past, whenever his father had some money, he went to restaurants with others to drink and eat meat.
Now that he had finally come across this rare meal of meat, his father was testing him at this moment.
But if it were to refute or express dissatisfaction, Zilu didn't have the courage.
"The people of Qin were good at fighting, but they fought to the death with Zhao. Zhao had Li Mu, so both sides suffered losses. Zhao was harmed, and Qin was seriously injured by the famous general Li Mu. However, when they went south to Chu, there was no war all year round, and there were more than a million soldiers, so in the future It must be Chu Qiang!"
Zilu looked at the food and slowly read aloud.
I don't know where I heard this Chu Qiang's theory, so I recited it silently now.
However, Shui Yan looked at his uncle and uncle, listened carefully with his eyes closed, and finally opened his eyes and nodded slowly.
This scene almost made Shui Yan choke.
"Mom, eat some food!"
Shui Yan calmed down, but fortunately he didn't make a fool of himself.
Mrs. Xiao looked at the food in the bowl that Yan'er had put for her. If it had been in the past, Ms. Xiao would have smiled.
But right now, Xiao Shi still has no appetite.
The reason was that looking at Ying's contemptuous eyes, Xiao didn't know what the other person was thinking.
The uncle's behavior was obviously contempt for Yan'er.
"Zilu wants to go to Chu in the future?"
The uncle naturally saw Shui Yan's appearance at this time, and the smile on his face was even brighter. Then he looked at his son and asked.
Since my son has said this.
That future ambition must be the Kingdom of Chu.
"Dad, I want to stay in Qi!"
However, Zilu's next words made the confident uncle suddenly freeze up.
"That's fine! The current King of Qi is a wise king in the world, and our great Qi is also a strong country. Serving the motherland will live up to what you have learned throughout your life."
The uncle was stunned for a moment, but he was still a scholar after all. He nodded and praised.
Shui Yan listened to the conversation between the father and son and couldn't help complaining in his heart. It's not the same as saying nothing.
Think of this.
Shui Yan stood up and went to make a bowl of rice and corn again.
When Yingshi and others saw this, they all snickered. When their grandfather and grandmother saw this, they looked at Shui Yan as if they were looking at a piece of rotten wood.
Look at Zilu, he has already studied the world situation and has his own opinions.
When watching Shui Yan, all I can do is eat.
You deserve to be hopeless for the rest of your life.
At this time, the uncle seemed to be inspired and said something.
"Although Chu and Qi are good, it's hard to compare to Bole!"
After saying that, the uncle sighed and turned his head seriously: "Dad, Zihuai wants to go to Qin in two days."
As soon as this sentence came out.
Everyone in the house was stunned.
Uncle and aunt looked at each other.
Even Yanfu and Xiao knew what the uncle wanted to do next.
The fact was not beyond their expectations, and then the uncle started to mention the matter of travel expenses.
"This place is thousands of miles away from Qin State. It may cost tens of thousands of money. Zihuai will not be able to afford it..."
The uncle said with an embarrassed look on his face, but he did not finish the rest of the words.
"Ten thousand dollars?"
"What??"
As the uncle finished speaking, before the grandparents could speak, the uncle and the others couldn't sit still and exclaimed.
Ten thousand dollars, that's enough to buy three slaves.
How could their family have so much money?
Does the uncle want to empty out this family?
At this moment, even Zilu was looking at his father in astonishment. He opened his mouth and forgot to chew, just staring blankly.
"Huai'er! My family can't afford so much money!"
Grandma said with a troubled expression.
Grandfather's face also darkened at this moment. If he wanted to come up with the ten thousand dollars, he might have to sell the remaining fields.
However, if the land is sold, what will the family eat in the future?
"If I continue to stay in Qi, I'm afraid I won't be able to find my talent for the rest of my life. It happened to be a war between Qin and Zhao, and Qin was defeated, so I went to Qin and wanted to join Li Si, the current Qin court captain."
The uncle said.
Then, as if he was afraid that his grandfather would not leave him, the uncle explained: "In the early years when Li Si was still in Jixia Academy, Zi Huai had several conversations with Li Si. Master Li also admired Zi Huai."
At the dinner table, the uncle once again brought up the old stories that he had said countless times.
As for whether Li Si is very optimistic about his uncle, no one knows.
But Li Si had met his uncle several times, so that was true.
Even Uncle Zitai fell silent at this time. Long ago when Xunzi was still in the academy, he followed his eldest brother and did pass by Li Si.
Every time Li Si and his eldest brother bowed respectfully to each other.
Now Li Si is famous in Qin, and his brother often talks about his friendship with Li Si, and he has said it countless times.
Thinking of this, Uncle Zitai was also a little moved.
Although he understands his temperament, regardless of whether he has friendship with Li Si or not, Qin was defeated just a few years ago and is indeed eager to acquire talents.
If the eldest brother can really join Li Si's disciples.
At that time, he could naturally go to Qin to join Li Si.
Seeing that the rare feast of wine and meat in front of him was not as good as the food thrown away by the powerful people in the court, his uncle Zitai was obviously a little moved.
"Even if we sell our family's fertile land, I'm afraid the difference will be a little worse."
Having said this, his uncle glanced casually at his second brother, Yanfu.
At this moment.
Everyone at the dinner table also had the same thoughts as his uncle and uncle.
Seeing this, Yan's father had not yet spoken, but Shi was unwilling and sneered.
“My family can’t afford the money!”
Mr. Xiao knew very well the nature of this family.
But Shi refused without mercy. Not to mention his uncle and uncle, even his grandfather frowned.
Perhaps he understood the Xiao family's character, so his grandfather did not point the finger at the Xiao family, but gave Yan's father a dissatisfied look.
"Mother Yan, this is your fault, why can't you see..."
As the uncle's wife, Mrs. Ying couldn't help but speak, but she was cut off by Shi just halfway through her words.
"Why can't I see you? If you want me to help, just give me all the land deeds and I can negotiate a good price for you. If you don't have ten thousand yuan, I, Shi, will make up for it for you."
Mr. Xiao stood up and looked at everyone with mocking eyes.
When you need it, you contribute money and effort, and when you enjoy happiness, why don't you think about Yanfu?
She didn't take into account the grievances she had suffered here before.
It was said that the family was divided, but after the separation, what was given to them?
If Yan's father had not worked so hard to feed the three of them, mother and son, the three of them would have starved to death.
Now the families have been separated, and Yan's father is still asked to pay.
This is not how bullying works!
Shui Yan listened to his mother's words and saw that everyone was too guilty to look directly at his mother. Shui Yan called his mother mighty in his heart.
Obviously, this family knew in their hearts that if they really wanted to sell their land, a emaciated camel would still be a camel, and it would probably not be difficult to make 10,000 yuan.
As for why you say you can’t get it!
It's not that my grandparents were reluctant to part with it, so they were cautious and asked my father to take advantage of the few savings.
Just when Shui Yan thought that his uncle's family should be speechless in the face of his mother's words.
Who would have thought that the next sentence would make Yan's father raise his head.
"If I am appreciated by Li Si in the future, I will take Shui Yan to Qin and take him with me."
The uncle took a deep breath, looked to one side and said calmly.
Obviously, this sentence is undoubtedly a compromise, and it is also his promise to Yan's family.
After he finished speaking, he felt his wife, Yingshi, pulling his sleeve. The uncle ignored her, sighed helplessly, and glanced at Shui Yan with disgust.
And what the uncle said.
And it did work.
Mrs. Xiao and Yanfu looked at each other, breathing rapidly.
Obviously, for the couple, now that their eldest son Shui Shou has been found, only Shui Yan is the one they can't let go of the most.
"real?"
"really?"
Faced with the uncle's promise, both Shi and Yan's father couldn't help but get excited, and their voices even trembled.
Although if all their belongings are sold, the couple will have nothing.
But if Shui Yan could have a future, the couple would be willing to do so even if they were hungry.
In Mrs. Shi's heart, although she still would not forgive the family for what happened five years ago, but now that it was about Shui Yan, she would rather put aside her prejudices.
After all, in her eyes.
The sky and the earth are not as big as her two sons.
"Hmph~!"
Mrs. Ying snorted coldly, as if she was quite dissatisfied with her uncle's promise.
Perhaps in her eyes, Shui Yan was not worthy of being by his uncle's side.
Just when the grandparents, uncles, aunts and others were all sneering in their hearts, they all knew that the shrewish Mr. Shi would definitely agree.
No one expected it.
After Shi and Yanfu finished talking, a voice suddenly sounded.
"You really know how to teach me? Don't you want me to carry your shit and urinate for you?"
