The ninth and forty-eighth chapter is about to set off

"Of course, the Wu brothers are domineering in Bingzhou and do many illegal things, and have caused Mingkong to suffer such great grievances. Naturally, they cannot let them go easily. When they go to the military academy, you can do it, but you must also pay attention to your sense of duty. The real purpose is to teach them a lesson, not to let you vent your anger simply. Do you understand?" Li Xiu said with a serious expression on his face at the end.

"Don't worry, Father, I know how to do it!" Li Jin was stupid once, but not stupid for the second time. At this time, he immediately understood what Li Xiu meant and smiled.

Although Li Jin is young, look at the people he has had with him, the Qin family, Cheng family, Niu family, etc., all of them are behind generals. Even in a place with strict management like a military academy, he can still form a small group. When the Wu brothers enter the military academy, they will be like a tiger's mouth. He can do whatever he wants!

It was enough to teach Li Jin a lesson about the Wu brothers, so Li Xiu didn't say anything. At the moment, the father and son entered the house together, and Li Jin pulled Ping Anlang to run away in the blink of an eye. It was estimated that the two brothers went to Wu Mingkong to discuss how to punish the Wu brothers, and Li Xiu stepped into the inner house.

As soon as he returned to the inner house, Qi Niang found him in a hurry. The first sentence was: "Brother, why did you come back? I've been looking for you for a day?"

"What, what's wrong?" Li Xiu seemed a little anxious when he saw Qi Niang's appearance, and couldn't help asking curiously.

"That... there is something. Last year... didn't you agree to me?" What Li Xiu didn't expect was that Qi Niang suddenly became squeamish at this time, and then hesitated.

"Oh~, I understand, don't worry, I have been remembering you, but I have to wait a few more days. This trip I plan to go to the south to choose a bank location, and also prepare a dowry for you. Although it is not convenient to bring too many things, I can't let you down. After all, you are my only sister!" Li Xiu immediately knew what she was talking about when he heard Qi Niang's words. He replied with a smile, and he calculated the time. The ships from America to the Central Plains are indeed coming every year.

When she heard that Li Xiu was going to prepare a dowry for her, Qi Niang, who had always been careless, suddenly blushed, but then she seemed to think about something, and then she showed a reluctant expression and whispered: "Brother, I... am I too selfish to do this?"

"Don't think too much, I still say the same thing. As long as you can live happily, I will support you no matter what choice you make." Li Xiu also walked to Qi Niang at this time and said to her softly. In fact, he also knew that as the time to go to America approached, Qi Niang was increasingly reluctant to leave herself and her family. However, Li Xiu knew even more that if Qi Niang was really allowed to stay now, she would probably live in regret for the rest of her life.

"Brother, I..." After hearing Li Xiu's words, Qi Niang couldn't speak at once, and finally she plunged into Li Xiu's arms and started crying. This made Li Xiu sigh and gently pat her back, but did not comfort her. After all, being able to cry quickly was also a good way to vent.

In the end, Qi Niang cried for a long time before slowly stopping, but her eyes were swollen like peaches, which made her feel a little embarrassed. She wiped her tears and ran back to her room. She was even embarrassed to come out to see someone during dinner, so Li Xiu ordered someone to send the supper to Qi Niang and let her eat in the room.

Wu Mingkong and his daughter lived at Li Xiu's house for a few days. After the Nanshan Villa was cleaned up, the mother and daughter lived in. However, when they went to Bingzhou, almost all the servants in the villa were taken over. This time, they came back, and only a few close maids and a few confidant servants were brought by their side, which was not enough to maintain the villa. In the end, Li Xiu transferred some servants in the family to temporarily solve the urgent needs of their mother and daughter.

In addition to the servants, there is another situation that makes people angry, that is, Wu Mingkong and his daughter came from Bingzhou this time, which is almost equivalent to leaving the house with them. Apart from the little private money Yang carried with them, there is no other property, which makes it difficult for them to ensure a basic life.

In the end, Li Xiu came forward. He first calculated their food, clothing and expenses in his home. In addition, he personally came forward to adopt some of the land left by the warrior to the Yang family. Originally, these land should have fallen under the name of the Wu brothers, but Li Xiu was very proud, so it would be a piece of cake to return these land, not to mention that it is reasonable. Yang cannot be hungry with his two daughters, right?

"Thank you for your kind help. My mother asked me to thank you on her behalf!" That morning, Wu Mingkong came to thank Li Xiu. After several days of busyness, the mother and daughter were finally settled in Chang'an, at least there is no need to breathe the two bastard brothers in the future.

"You and I have a teacher and student relationship, don't be too polite. Moreover, before your father passed away, he also told me to take care of you. Now I am just doing my best to be a friend!" Li Xiu looked at Wu Mingkong who was a little haggard in front of him, but sighed.

During this period, the Yang family and the daughter of the three have also spent a lot of effort. Wu Mingkong looked a few times thinner than before, and his face was not very good, which made people feel distressed.

When Wu Mingkong heard Li Xiu's words, he was moved to tears. However, she was a strong child. She wiped away her tears and refused to mention this matter. However, she always remembered Li Xiu's kindness in her heart, and she also knew that her two bastard brothers were going to the military academy, so Li Jin would naturally vent his anger for him.

Seeing Wu Mingkong crying, Li Xiu comforted her for a while, and then told her to come to class when she has time. After all, her homework has been laid for a long time since her father passed away last year. Even if she is smart, it will take some effort to make up for it. Wu Mingkong also agreed to this.

There was still some time before the military academy started, and the affairs of the Wu family were temporarily settled. At this time, Li Xiu finally began to prepare for going to the south. Although he was very reluctant to let Qi Niang go, Qi Niang had grown up after all, and he could not let her stay by his side for the rest of his life. Now it is time for her to find her happiness.
