The Name of Eternity

Chapter 84: Old Matters Revisited

After Li Xuanli came over, he first greeted the eldest lady He Jianlan with a slight salute.

Then he said hello to the other sisters-in-law one by one, and then said hello to the other brothers and sisters, then sat down and said with a smile:

"Shuang'er, how are you practicing in Qianjimen? I heard that you have made it to the top list, which is good."

After hearing her father's praise, Li Wushuang's expression was calm, but Li Yun beside her had his eyes shining with pride, and Li Zhining also looked at the eldest sister with sparkling eyes, as if he had already seen her. Consider it your role model.

"It's just that we are at the bottom. If we can be like Uncle Jiu and win the first place as soon as we enter the ranking list, that would be amazing."

She didn't mean to show off, she just told the truth.

Hearing his daughter mention Lao Jiu, Li Xuanli's eyes changed slightly and the smile on his face faded.

That dazzling figure like a shooting star, just like what Emperor Yu said fourteen years ago, that falling light was the pain of their Li family!

Although they have nine brothers, not sisters, they are close to each other and are extremely united.

It was only later that they each married wives and moved less with each other, so they gradually became estranged.

I think about the past, we would all practice martial arts and eat together in the compound, talk and laugh together, and avoid punishment from dad...

Time flies.

The summer frogs croaking in the courtyard in my memory have long since disappeared...

Seeing that the atmosphere at the scene was a little quieter, Li Wushuang also realized that he shouldn't mention the Li family scar. His pretty face changed slightly and he didn't say anything anymore.

Li Xuanli, who was feeling depressed, came to his senses and noticed that his daughter was silent. Then he realized that he was affected by his own emotions. He immediately smiled and said calmly:

"I want to compete with your Ninth Uncle, but you are still young. Your Ninth Uncle aspired to become a Heavenly Master at the age of seventeen. He pushed back all the way and competed against the world's proudest men at the Fengxian Arena outside Qingzhou City. In the end, he won No one dares to respond!”

Talking about that period of his youth, Li Xuanli smiled a little more on his face, and he missed the high-spirited days.

At that time, they had the sky above their heads, a father, and an elder brother, so they could travel freely in the world.

Drinking wine and riding horses, he traveled through nineteen states.

But as the sky above his head fell, his father's soul returned to the river where he died. He has been unable to escape, cannot return to the Li family ancestral hall, and cannot be reincarnated.

They lost their leisurely mood and continued to wander, but began to practice hard.

At the same time, he also began to shoulder the heavy responsibility of the Li family, guarding the border, galloping on the battlefield, and slaying demons!

When the wives of each hospital heard Li Xuanli's words, they had some aftertaste in their eyes. That period was also the time when most of them first married into the Li family. It was the most innocent time and the best time to get along with their husbands.

Yearning appeared in Li Wushuang's eyes, and her father's few words outlined in her heart a figure with a majestic figure, invincible in the world, that was her Jiu Shu, whom she had heard about since she was a child, the most proud and proud Jiu Shu. Uncle.

Asking the world, how many people in the world can achieve this scornful demeanor alone?

Li Hao secretly sighed, it was a pity that such a talented person died young.

"The food is almost cold, let's eat first."

In the end, He Jianlan was the most rational, she recovered her thoughts and said with a smile.

Everyone smiled, then greeted each other and moved their chopsticks.

"Well, these dishes are good."

During the meal, everyone talked about other things, not bringing back the sad memories, and seemed to have reached a tacit understanding in this regard.

Li Xuanli ate several dishes and praised them, saying: "Shuang'er, it's rare for you to come back and give it a try. This bamboo-flavored and ink-flavored dragon liver is quite good. It still tastes the same as it did more than ten years ago. It hasn't changed at all. As a father, I haven’t had it in years.”

"oh?"

Li Wushuang, who had always maintained a cold expression before, now showed a bit of naivety like a little daughter. He picked it up with chopsticks curiously and tasted it carefully.

"Well, it's really good." Li Wushuang smiled with his teeth.

Li Xuanli looked at his sister-in-law and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law is interested in Shuang'er. The bamboo-flavored and ink-flavored dragon liver from Cuihu Yuan is a specialty in Qingzhou. I haven't eaten it for so long that I almost forgot about it."

He Jianlan smiled slightly, glanced at Li Hao who was eating and drinking, and said with a smile:

"I didn't prepare this. Hao'er and Yuan Zhao bought it together. They said Shuang'er had been away for many years and must have never tasted Qingzhou's delicacies, so they bought it specially."

Li Xuanli was slightly stunned, looked at Li Hao and Li Yuanzhao on the other side, and said, "Did you buy this?"

Li Hao glanced at him and nodded with great respect for the fifth uncle who was galloping on the battlefield.

Li Yuanzhao smiled and said: "Fifth uncle, Brother Hao knows how to eat best. The delicious dishes you just ate were all bought by Brother Hao. There are still several more, which will be delivered to you later." Come up."

"oh?"

Li Xuanli was surprised. He naturally had an impression of Li Hao. He was the only son of his seventh brother and Qing Qing. He had even participated in the Hundred Days Banquet.

Later, I heard that this little guy was cultivating a waste body, but it seemed to be unblocked on his own. Maybe the second master thought of some way to help him get through it. In short, he was able to practice again.

It's just a pity that foundation building and hemolysis were delayed, and his qualifications were inevitably inferior to others. In addition, he started late and wasted time.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a pang of regret in his heart, and his eyes when he looked at Li Hao became softer:

"Hao'er is interested. I heard that your father is coming back soon and the war in Yanbei is over. He submitted it to the court. I believe you will be able to see him soon."

With that said, he said to his daughter next to him: "Shuang'er, why don't you thank Xiao Hao quickly? This kind of kindness is no less than other gifts."

Li Hao's heart was moved when he heard this. This fifth uncle had not come before and arrived last. But his words were pointed to something else. It seemed that he had already used his divine sense to investigate this place.

He felt a good impression in his heart. This fifth uncle was obviously a reasonable person.

For the sake of the other party, Li Hao no longer cared about what happened just now and pretended to be indifferent. At this time, if he looked at Li Wushuang for a second longer, the other party would probably be embarrassed.

On the other side, Li Wushuang's face was a little wrong when she heard the words of the aunt. At this moment, after hearing her father's words, she suddenly felt that the dragon liver in her mouth was a little difficult to swallow.

She glanced at Li Hao, but saw that he was picking up food and didn't seem to be waiting for her thanks.

In her eyes, this attitude was indifferent and a little arrogant.

Her face turned cold, she took two bites of the remaining half of the dragon liver in the bowl and put it on the table, then turned to other dishes, saying:

"Dad, I have already thanked him, and I don't like this dragon liver, it's too greasy."

Li Xuanli was startled, his face suddenly darkened, put down his chopsticks, stared at her and said:

"Shuang'er, your father has taught you since childhood to be honest and open. You just came back, what prejudice do you have against Hao'er? Just because he gave you a bottle of elixir just now?!"

At this moment, he no longer concealed that he had noticed this a long time ago.

As he got angry, everyone else at the dinner table couldn't help but stop eating. Gao Qingqing knew her husband's temper and felt strange. Shuang'er was not like this before.

However, the situation was a bit awkward at the moment. If he asked his daughter to apologize again, everyone in the room would be watching, and he was afraid that it would hurt the child's self-esteem.

He Jianlan saw that the scene was a little embarrassing, and said softly: "Xuanli, Shuang'er just came back, don't be angry, Shuang'er, do you have any opinion about Hao'er?"

Li Wushuang didn't expect her father to scold her in public, and she suddenly felt inexplicably wronged. She hadn't been home for a long time, and now she was back, and the father and daughter hadn't met for a few times, but her father scolded her for an outsider.

She bit her lip and glared at Li Hao: "You have to ask him about this. He bullied my brother while I was away. Dad, you have been recuperating in the Zen Mountain, so you don't know about this."

"Huh?" Li Xuanli was stunned. Li Hao bullied his own child?

Li Yun's face also changed slightly, and he became a little nervous.

When the eldest sister just came back, the three siblings naturally had a lot to say. When Li Wushuang smiled and asked casually, has anyone bullied you in these years?

He took the opportunity to tell her about being beaten by Li Hao when he was a child. It was a bit shameful to tell his mother about this, but when he told this eldest sister, he felt like he had found a backer.

He thought about asking for it back on his own, but every time he saw Li Hao, he felt inexplicably scared.

When Li Wushuang heard this, he naturally remembered Li Hao's name and thought of finding an opportunity to deal with him.

So the reason was here... Li Hao was a little speechless. He glanced at the blushing and nervous Li Yun. He didn't expect that this kid still held a grudge. It seemed that he didn't hit him too hard at the beginning, but he hit him too lightly. He actually dared to remember it.

"Yun'er, when did this happen?" Gao Qingqing's face changed slightly and asked hurriedly.

Li Yun had never been stared at by so many elders. His face suddenly turned red and he lowered half of his head slightly: "Several years ago."

"When exactly?"

"Five or six years ago..."

When everyone heard this, they immediately knew it was a misunderstanding. Five or six years ago?

At that time, Li Hao and Li Yun were only eight or nine years old. This was at most a child's mischief. How could it be called bullying?

What's more, Li Hao seemed to be a useless body at that time, his meridians were not open, and he had not embarked on cultivation.

And Li Yun had been practicing in the martial arts field for several years.

Hmm? Yes! How could he still be bullied?

When everyone thought of this, they immediately looked suspicious, looking at Li Hao and then at Li Yun.

Gao Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief. It was not the kind of bullying she thought. It was probably just a quarrel between children. The injuries were probably not as serious as those in the martial arts arena.

"You kid, it's been so long, why do you still remember it and complain to your sister." Gao Qingqing said unhappily. Her son was good in everything, but he was not ambitious enough and did not learn his father's generosity.

The other ladies all chuckled. Liu Yuerong smiled and said, "Yun'er, five or six years ago, your brother Hao had not practiced yet. Was it you who bullied him, or was he bullying you?"

This seemed to be a joke, but Li Hao immediately heard a sense of temptation.

Of course, it might be that he was too suspicious.

Li Yun's face became more red, and he felt ashamed, but at that time, he really did not beat Li Hao. The other party was much stronger than him.

"I was careless at the time."

"He attacked me by surprise and was very strong." Li Yun said with a red face.

Hearing Li Yun's words, everyone laughed dumbly, thinking that Li Hao had practiced body training earlier, so naturally he would be stronger.

Looking at Li Yun's blushing face, it was known that this child was thinking about being bullied by Li Hao who had not practiced in the martial arts field, and it was embarrassing to say it out.

As a result, he secretly complained to his sister who had not seen him for many years, and revealed this embarrassing thing.

"Humph, it's because you always think about Brother Hao's fiancee."

Li Yuanzhao said angrily after hearing Li Yun's words.

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt the gaze of his mother, and said three words with his eyes: Shut up.

Li Xuanli understood that it was a misunderstanding. He glared at Li Yun unhappily and said:

"Useless thing, you complain to your sister about such a small matter. You are a man of seven feet tall. If you are not convinced, go to the martial arts arena to have a fight with Hao'er. What's the point of crying and yelling for your parents here!"

He scolded harshly, making Li Yun even more ashamed.

Gao Qingqing rolled her eyes at him when she heard him scold her son like this, changed the subject, and asked Li Hao:

"Speaking of Hao'er, when will your fiancée come back? She is a disciple of the Sword Saint. When she comes back, let her have a fight with Shuang'er."
