After listening to Li Qingfeng's words, Li San stroked his beard and thought for a long time. Li Wen saw this and said, "Feng'er, there is no problem with reading and writing, but I think there is no rush to establish a caravan."
Due to the failure of establishing a caravan last time, Li Qingfeng also knew that someone in the village would definitely object, so he nodded and said: "Dad, you and grandpa can arrange this, but it is not a good thing to stay in this village all the time. Sooner or later, you will have to go out."
Li San nodded in agreement and said that he would make arrangements, which set the tone for the matter.
"Besides, Dad" turned to Li Wen, and Li Qingfeng added: "When I come back this time, I plan to pick up the fourth sister and let her teach several children. The fourth sister has a gentle personality and is well-read and literate. I can take care of several children, and with her taking care of Qingqing, my mother can feel more at ease."
The fourth sister Li Qingning is the child of the concubine Wang. Both of Wang's children are daughters, and their status in the family is slightly lower than that of Li. Perhaps because of this, Li Qingning developed such a gentler character.
Li Wenwen was a little hesitant. He felt that a woman should not be exposed to the public before she got married, but after listening to Li Qingfeng's advice and thinking that the valley was full of his own family, he nodded in agreement.
Strangely enough, when Li Qingfeng faced Li San and Li Wen, although he used a lot of courtesy and honorifics, he was always the leader of the conversation. Whenever he made any request or plan, Li Wen and Li San would basically be convinced by him in the end. Over time, the two of them gradually got used to it.
The so-called difference between immortals and mortals is no joke. Once a person embarks on the path of cultivating immortality, even if he is just a young Qi-training monk, his aura will unconsciously affect the surrounding mortals, causing them to unconsciously develop a sense of awe. There is an old saying in the world called "A companion to the king is like a tiger to accompany". Although it is inappropriate to put it here, it can still express a somewhat similar meaning.
Then, Li Qingfeng and Li San and Li Wen talked about some things in and outside the village, and discussed some things related to the daily life of the Li family compound. Seeing the sky outside the window getting darker, Li Wen interrupted with a smile and said, "It's getting late, let's go out for New Year's Eve dinner, otherwise your mother will talk about it again."
After hearing this, Li San also laughed. A few people turned off the oil lamps in the study, opened the door and walked out.
When we came to the main hall, several female family members were busy. Liu Qiniang walked in from the backyard with a can of home-brewed wine. When she saw Li Wen, she walked up and muttered something. Li Wen looked at her with a smile and reached out to help her carry the wine. Liu Qiniang was not polite and handed the wine to him, then turned and went to the backyard.
Seeing this scene in Li Qingfeng's eyes, he couldn't help but be startled.
A moment later he was startled awake by the sound of children's voices coming from the side hall. Li Qingfeng turned to look at the side hall, and when he turned back, Li Wen had already walked aside with the can of wine, and Liu Qiniang had also gone to the backyard. The inexplicable tremor in his heart just now had long disappeared.
He shook his head and walked into the side hall.
In the side hall, a group of children were lying on the ground, playing some of their games, including Li Qingqing and three other children. Li Qingning stood aside and looked at the children in front of her with a smile.
Li Qingfeng walked up to her and told her that he wanted her to go back with him to teach several children how to read and write.
"Then, what about fifth sister and sixth brother?"
Li Qingning didn't object. The first thing she thought of was her remaining two younger siblings.
"Life is hard in the valley. I'm afraid the fifth sister and sixth brother won't be able to stay here." Li Qingfeng pondered for a moment and said, "If the fourth sister is reluctant to leave, she can go back and forth every day, but it will be harder."
Li Qingning smiled softly and said, "Then just listen to Third Brother."
"Okay." Li Qingfeng nodded, pointed to the children lying on the ground and smiled: "It's almost time to eat. You take them to prepare it first, or else my mother will talk about it again."
Hearing him make a joke about Liu Qiniang, Li Qingning covered her mouth and smiled, said "good", and then called some children to wash their hands. When Li Qingqing and others saw Li Qingfeng coming, they hurriedly called Third Brother. He pointed at Li Qingning and motioned for them to follow Li Qingning.
There was wine and vegetables on the dinner table, which was quite sumptuous. Grandpa Li San sat at the top, took a bite of the food first and signaled everyone to start eating, and then slowly started drinking.
In winter, it is really a joy for the family to sit around the table and eat New Year's Eve dinner. Li Qingfeng raised his head and looked around. The atmosphere was so cheerful that even the most reserved Li Qingzhu gradually relaxed and sat with his sixth brother, talking and laughing.
I don’t know what the Li family will look like in the future. There are differences between immortals and mortals. Can such a scene of a family sitting together be repeated?
No wonder Li Qingfeng wrote a poem in his previous life: "On the way to becoming an immortal, one has few close friends, and one cannot live as long as a mortal."
...
After staying at home for two days, Li Qingfeng returned to Yuepan Valley with Li Qingning, Li Qingdong and their three children.
Long before arriving, Li Qingfeng had made an appointment with Li Qingdong on a time and place to meet. Today I saw that Li Qingdong had not forgotten, nor was he late. He was waiting at the appointed place early.
It was already past noon when we arrived at the Li Family Courtyard. From a distance, the entire Li Family Courtyard was covered in white clouds, making it difficult to see anything inside.
Although Li Qingning had heard about Li Qingfeng and others, she had never seen them with her own eyes. When she saw them now, she couldn't help but cover her mouth in shock and was speechless.
However, Li Qingqing introduced her to her with a smile: "This is the formation arranged by the third brother. Isn't it amazing?"
Li Qingfeng ignored everything that followed. He pinched the magic formula and flew into the air. With a wave of his hand, the white mist in front of everyone immediately dispersed, revealing the true face of the Li family compound.
The carriage slowly drove into the courtyard, the white mist disappeared, and a spiritual energy that was much richer than the outside rushed towards the face. Li Qingqing, Li Qingzhu and Li Qingdong all closed their eyes and took a deep breath. Although Li Yuming did not do this, he also showed a relaxed look. Li Qingfeng's expression remained unchanged as always, but Li Qingning was choked and coughed several times.
This is the same as Li Qingfeng's reaction when he came into contact with the spiritual energy emitted by the second-order spiritual veins in the cave. He would not adapt to it when he first came into contact with it, which is a normal reaction.
It was already past noon, and Li Qingfeng sent everyone to practice while he took Li Qingning to find a wing for her to stay. As long as a few more days pass, she will adapt to this concentration of spiritual energy, and her physical condition will gradually improve. Therefore, mortals who wear spiritual objects for a long time or live in places with abundant spiritual energy all year round tend to be in good health and rarely get sick.
According to legend, this is the origin of the earliest human monks. In order to stay healthy and live a long life, some people try to inhale and practice Qi. Slowly, humans with spiritual roots figured out the secrets of cultivation and became the earliest ancient monks.
Cultivation is like sailing against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat. After arranging everything, Li Qingfeng opened the door of his room and began to meditate.
