Chapter 280 The Roots of the Li Family
When Li Duoyu and Zhou Xiaoying were walking in Yantai Mountain, they unexpectedly encountered a tour group of returned overseas Chinese.
A female tour guide led a group of middle-aged and elderly people in front of the former sites of various foreign consulates and introduced them: "This was the largest consulate back then."
Tourists marveled at these bungalows.
"The quality of this house is really good. It has not fallen down after so many years."
"I think I used to play here when I was a kid."
"You also grew up here."
"My family originally worked for the consulate."
Seeing the introduction from the tour guide, Zhou Xiaoying dragged Li Duoyu into the group, pretending to be a member of the tour group, followed the tour guide, and listened to her explanation.
These old people are sighing: "What a big change."
To Li Duoyu's surprise, the tour guide took them to an old house called "Li Garden".
Li Duoyu remembered that the nephew of Lao Zhang, the fishmonger at Qingkou Wharf, worked as a purchaser in the Foreign Trade Center Hotel.
"No more sitting."
But Li Duoyu always felt that if things were that simple, the old lady might have recognized her ancestors and returned to her clan. Until his death, he never told his descendants where the ancestors of the Li family came from. But for this kind of thing, just let it happen. As long as you know where the roots are, it doesn't matter whether you recognize them or not.
After the tour guide’s explanation, the doubts that had troubled Li Duoyu for many years were finally solved.
The two tallest buildings in the distance are the Wujiang Hotel and the Foreign Trade Center Hotel. They are currently places where foreigners and returned overseas Chinese are received.
"Don't you want your children to have a better living and learning environment?"
The eldest son, Li Zhiren.
Li Duoyu grinned, and then suddenly asked: "Xiaoying, you said that when we have money in the future, do you want to come to the city to teach and live."
"It was precisely because of this incident that the Li family was implicated. The head of the Li family at the time had to stand up and announce that he had severed ties with them. Therefore, there is no relevant information about Li Ruixiang's heirs."
Zhou Xiaoying quickly took it out and cursed: "If you catch a cold tonight and have a stomachache, I won't get up and make ginger soup for you."
"That's it. Then where are the descendants of the Li family now? Why don't they live here?"
What he didn't expect at all was that he actually saw a familiar name on the wooden board.
The wind from the river was blowing, and it was still a bit cold. Zhou Xiaoying couldn't help but rub her hands.
Zhou Xiaoying asked: "Then what do you think is the best living environment for children?"
Li Duoyu looked at the wooden boards on the wall, which were actually engraved with simple relationships between characters.
Zhou Xiaoying, who was suddenly hugged, looked around like a frightened little rabbit. Fortunately, there were many trees nearby and no one could see her.
The two sat quietly for a while.
The two of them sat on the stone bench and looked at the river and Rongcheng. From here, they could see most of Rongcheng, and even the Wu Pagoda and White Pagoda not far away.
The tour guide smiled and replied: "You really asked the right person about this. If it weren't for me today, no one would really know this history."
Not long after Li Zihao returned to China, he and some people supported the reform. Later, after the reform failed, he was hunted down by the Qing government at the time and escaped by boat overnight. "
And just after Li Duoyu and the others left Rongcheng, they were in a red brick dormitory in Rongcheng.
"What, keep warm."
He had never raised or taught children before, and he didn't know what to say.
The old lady can bring out so many small yellow croakers, it turns out that her background is really not simple.
Zhou Xiaoying stood up: "Let's go, it's getting late, let's go back to the island."
Li Jinchuan frowned and said, "Didn't you say a few days ago that you didn't plan to do it in our village?"
After coming out of Li Garden.
Li Duoyu suddenly realized that if there was only one Li Ruixiang, it might be a coincidence.
The female tour guide smiled and said, "I don't know about this. I heard that some of the descendants of the Li family went abroad and some stayed in Rongcheng."
Li Duoyu and Zhou Xiaoying followed the tour group into the courtyard.
The female tour guide smiled: "I don't know about this. You have to ask the current descendants of the Li family to know."
The second son, Li Zhihong.
Li Duoyu couldn't help but ask: "Can I ask, this fourth eldest son of the Li family - Li Ruixiang, why is there no one here?"
With a sore nose, he hugged Zhou Xiaoying in his arms on the spot: "This is too easy. I will always be by your side."
When Li Duoyu said this, Zhou Xiaoying suddenly felt that what he said seemed to make sense.
After hearing these words.
"Are you ashamed?"
This old house is different from a foreign-style house. It is a traditional Chinese-style building with three entrances and three exits. It is a truly wealthy family.
An aunt looked at Li Duoyu and couldn't help but ask: "Young man, are you related to the Li family? How come you asked so clearly."
Zhou Xiaoying thought carefully and then shook her head: "The city is good, but I'm a little uncomfortable. I feel it's better in the village."
But if even Li Zihao has it, then there is a high probability of it. No wonder it is on a poor island like Dandan Island.
Li Duoyu and Zhou Xiaoying left the tour group, waved goodbye to the group of adults, and arrived at the highest place in Yantai Mountain.
"A few days ago was a few days ago. How can it be the same now? Jinchuan, let me tell you, we are husband and wife now. You have to think carefully about this family. You also saw it today. The people Duoyu knows, We can get rich if we climb any one of them, we must have a good relationship with Duoyu, you know.”
"Well, when I was a child, I had contact with the Li family, and I found that you look a bit like them. You both have a long face and a high nose."
It turns out that Taigong was so powerful back then. Not only did he study abroad, he also changed the law.
Jiang Yuqin said to the gift money that had just returned: "Jinchuan, now that we have received the certificate, why don't we go back to your village to hold a banquet."
As for that name, Li Duoyu had seen it in the Li family ancestral hall in Xiasha Village.
Li Duoyu couldn't help but ask: "Then later, did Li Ruixiang's descendants come back to recognize each other?"
"This Li Ruixiang has a son named Li Zihao, who studied at the Shipping School in his early years and was among the first wave of young people in our country to study abroad.
"Maybe it's just a coincidence."
"A gentleman is magnanimous, but a villain has a long-term relationship. It is only natural that I hug you. There is nothing to be ashamed of."
When Li Duoyu asked a question, an aunt in the team smiled and said: "Young man, your home has never been fought before. Who dared to live in such a big yard at that time? I'm sure It’s donated to the country.”
"No, I'm just curious."
Zhou Xiaoying said lightly: "Do I think that having a stable home, with parents by your side, a harmonious couple without quarreling, and a correct outlook on life and value orientation is the best living environment for children."
When Li Duoyu saw this, he directly opened his clothes and put her hand on his stomach.
He has four children in total.
The female tour guide began to introduce: "The owner of Li Garden was Li Jianan, the president of the Rongcheng Chamber of Commerce, who was very prestigious in the local area.
"Okay, then I'm going to buy candied haws on a stick for Little Fatty."
"No, little Tutu might be hungry. I'll go back and squeeze some milk for him."
In winter.
Li Duoyu finally understood why so many students came to see her off when she left in her previous life.
After hearing this, Li Jinchuan frowned.
Jiang Yuqin continued: "Let's buy some New Year's goods when we have free time in the past two days. On New Year's Eve, we will take Xiao Min and go back to the island to celebrate the New Year with my parents."
Li Jinchuan naturally knew why Jiang Yuqin suddenly changed so drastically. He struggled for a while and said, "Okay, then you can arrange it."
