Cardcaptor at Hogwarts

Chapter 153 Li Family Old House

Adam glanced at Ms. Li, who nodded to him before Adam sat in the passenger seat.

Li Chunyi found his little adult look a little funny, but thinking about what he was going to say next, he couldn't laugh anymore. He sat in the driver's seat and slowly started the car, then said:

"I'll take you to the Peninsula Hotel later... Can my nephew sleep by himself at night? If so, come with me to the Li family's old house..."

At the end, Li Chunyi's words were already low and vague. He really couldn't bear to say such things.

That's right, after knowing that Adam was a wizard with a talent for cultivation, the Li family called him back, which was considered to have accepted this descendant, but they didn't call Ms. Li!

"Okay."

Adam nodded.

"Otherwise, actually... um?"

A question mark appeared on Li Chunyi's head, and he turned to look at Adam:

"You..."

"Don't look at me, look ahead!"

Adam's eyelids jumped fiercely.

"Oh, oh, oh!"

Li Chunyi quickly looked ahead and straightened the car that had deviated slightly, but he couldn't help wondering in his heart:

"You... don't blame the ancestors?"

Even if he was a little bit resentful in his heart, but the decision was made by the ancestors, let alone the brothers, even if his parents disagreed, there was nothing they could do.

But this eldest nephew...

"Strange, but understandable."

Adam was also helpless when he said this.

It's rogue to judge a person's behavior without considering the background of the times - and what era did the ancestor of the Li family live in?

No, to be precise, the dynasty was still used when he was born!

As a person who was still under the rule of the emperor in his youth, saw the mountains and rivers of his homeland broken in his middle age, and the land under his feet was torn apart by both sides in his later years, he was hostile to the British and even hated them, and didn't want his descendants to marry the British. It was really something that could not be blamed.

That ancestor belonged to the very few wizards who recognized their own country as mentioned before...Can Adam still blame him for being too patriotic?

Even though Adam is the son of Ms. Li, who was affected, he can say that his behavior of generalizing is irrational, but he has no right to ask him to be rational.

For those who have personally experienced that era, being rational is a gift, and being unable to be rational is human nature.

Even among the Japanese who lived a good life, there were good people like Ida Sukeno in that era. That being said, there are only a few people who can truly treat the people who live a good life rationally after decades, and most of them are "rational" with crooked buttocks.

Rather than saying that the ancestor was irrational, it is better to say that in that situation, he could only verbally disagree, allowing Ms. Li to go back with Mr. Reed, and also allowing Adam's grandparents to give her a large sum of money...

Turning a blind eye and treating this great-granddaughter who has no talent for cultivation as non-existent, the ancestor was already very rational, even open-minded.

So what can Adam do?

Come back once, recognize your ancestors, and turn a blind eye to some dissatisfaction during the period, just as if it is to let Ms. Li untie a knot in her heart.

Go back after the process, if you can't afford to offend me, you can afford to hide - this is the true portrayal of Adam's heart when he came.

However, after arriving at the old house of the Li family, Adam found that his previous estimation of the Li family was partially biased.

Of course, it was not in terms of character and attitude, but... family background.

There was no expected mansion in the mountains, or a courtyard with pavilions and towers. After passing through the alley, an old building came into view. The door and the plaque of the Li's house in the front showed the ownership of this place.

Looking at the real "old" house in front of him, Adam fell into silence.

It is said that such a large area is not cheap, but according to Adam's understanding, at least five generations of the Li family have lived here, and looking at the bumpy white powder wall, some roofs are even using iron sheets and plastic plates instead of tiles...

Because of Ms. Li, he always thought that the Li family was a wealthy family, but... Weasley turned out to be me?

"Well, the old house was handed down from our ancestors, and they were frugal, so they never did any major renovations..."

Li Chunyi made a dry defense, and then took the lead in crossing the threshold:

"It will be much better inside, come with me, everyone wants to see you."

Adam followed him in.

Although it is called an old house, it is not a big yard, but more like a small urban area. Occasionally, a few children can be seen running through the alleys.

In a trance, Adam even felt like he was watching a Hong Kong movie from the 1980s and 1990s...Oh, this is the era in those Hong Kong movies, so it's okay.

"Pah-"

"Ah!"

Accompanied by wailing, a child suddenly jumped out of the alley next to him and ran into another alley. Before Adam could see clearly, a black shadow flew over.

That was-the black shadow that flashed in Adam's mind gradually became clear-a feather duster?

"You little brat! I think you're itching for trouble! Don't run!"

Accompanied by the sound of slippers hitting the ground, a woman in a floral dress walked out of the alley angrily. When she saw Li Chunyi and Adam, she stopped and the anger on her face turned into a smile in a second:

"Hey, Chunyi is back? This is..."

"Sister Fang, this is my eldest sister's son. The ancestors called him back to join the family tree."

"... Chunying's son?"

The woman was startled and looked at Adam for a long time:

"Back then, I skipped school and climbed trees with her. In the blink of an eye, her son has grown so big..."

"Ha! Mom, you're still talking about me! You obviously don't like school either!"

A head popped out of the alley opposite, it was the child just now.

"Are you comparing yourself to me?"

The woman put her hands on her hips and raised her eyes:

"Chunying and I still passed the top ten exams in our grade when we skipped school! What about you? My blood pressure is lower than my blood pressure after taking the three subjects together! Come here!"

The child trembled. He had not thought of it at first, but the woman hooked her finger, and the child felt a familiar long, feathered object poke his back from behind...

There was a burning sensation coming from the various marks on his ass, prompting him to lower his head and move behind the woman.

"Come and call someone, this is uncle, this is cousin."

"Uncle, cousin."

Facts have proved that children who have just received their final grades are indeed horribly well-behaved, especially after being beaten.

Li Chunyi scratched his head. He didn't prepare a red envelope...

"Hello, cousin."

Adam smiled and handed out a candy. Almond slices were sprinkled on the milky white nougat, exuding an alluring sweet aroma. The child's eyes suddenly lit up, but then he looked at the woman and did not dare to step forward.

"Just keep what your cousin gave you."

The woman sighed, and then said helplessly:

"But don't cry when your tooth hurts!"

"Don't worry, Aunt Fang. This candy is made of special materials. It won't damage your teeth if you eat it."

Adam put the candy into the hands of the child who had a hesitant face.

The child immediately stuffed the candy into his mouth, and the sweetness spreading between his lips and teeth made him squint his eyes.

"I just know how to eat!"

The woman couldn't help but stretched out her hand and tapped his forehead, then looked at Adam, with a mixture of emotion and nostalgia in her expression:

"What a good boy...Is your mother back too?"

Adam looked at Li Chunyi.

"Didn't come back."

Li Chunyi said with a smile.

The woman raised her eyebrows, looked at Li Chunyi's face, and subconsciously wanted to turn her head, but immediately stopped, and then naturally raised her hand to tuck her hair:

"Not coming back... okay."
