Chapter 177 Li Yaozu wants to see his son
At the Li family, the five people washed up and put on new clothes before going to the living room. Looking at the five people dressed in new clothes, Li Kangri smiled and said, "Grandpa, how are you? The clothes Yue'er made for you are nice, right?"
"Well, I was right about my granddaughter-in-law. She is a filial daughter-in-law. But how much did this cost? One set for each of them. It must have cost a lot, right?" Li Yaozu said with concern. He had never worn such good clothes in his life!
"Grandpa, I also made some for you and grandma. I'll give it to you later." Li Qinghe said.
"Kid, one set is enough for you. You should save money." Li Yaozu said.
"Haha, Grandpa, don't feel bad about Qinghe's money. Otherwise, you will feel bad if she takes it all away when she gets married!" Li Kangri joked.
"Brother! What are you talking about? Who is getting married?" Li Qinghe said with a red face.
"Haha, just take away what my granddaughter earns. I still have to prepare a dowry for her!" said Li Yaozu.
Just as everyone was joking, Xu Damao walked in, "Master, Sha Zhu said the food is ready, when will we have dinner?"
"Okay! Now, I'm hungry." Li Kangri said.
"Okay, Master, please help serve the dishes. There are too many of them." Xu Damao called out.
"Okay, Mom, Grandpa and Grandma, Uncle Wang, please sit down. I'll serve the dishes." Li Qinghe said.
"I'll go too!" said Wang Shuixiang.
"I'll go too. Yue'er, you sit down. It's not convenient for you."
So, after a while, in the shocked eyes of the five people, a sumptuous dinner was brought to the table.
"Kangri, you kid, how come you don't know how to save at all? Is this how you spend money? Look, you're doing better than the landlords, you...ah!" Li Yaozu immediately scolded.
"Grandpa, my brother has a lot of money and is not afraid to spend it, haha." Qinghe tried to smooth things over.
"You shouldn't spend money like this. How can I eat this meal? I wouldn't have come if I had known." Li Yaozu said with concern. This table was only enough for his year's work points and he might not be able to make it.
"Grandpa, aren't we here to welcome you today? We won't be like this in the future, haha." Li Kangri said with a smile. He knew that it would take time to change his grandfather's mind. He had to boil the frog in warm water and take it slowly.
"Your grandfather is right about resisting the Japanese. Forget it today, but don't dare to do this in the future. No matter how much money you earn, you can't afford to do this to me." Wang Shuixiang also blamed.
"Okay, okay, you are right, but my apprentice provided most of the materials, and his family is not short of money, right Damao?" Li Kangri winked at Xu Damao.
Seeing his master's eyes, Xu Damao understood immediately, so he explained, "Haha, Master's grandfather, this is what I prepared. My family is really not short of money. Eat it, eat it, this is a little gift from me."
"Well... okay! Don't do this again in the future." Li Yaozu said.
At the side, the Queen Mother pulled Wang Yue aside and whispered, "Yuer, your life is better than the emperor's."
"Mom, Brother Kangri is very capable. What we eat today is just a little better than usual. I'll tell you another day." Wang Yue whispered.
"That can't be wasted like this. You should talk more about the anti-Japanese war in the future."
"Mom, how can a woman like me control a man? I don't care. Whatever the anti-Japanese brother says is fine. I am willing to accompany him when he eats well, and I am also willing to accompany him when he goes hungry." Wang Yue said in a low voice.
"You! Really... forget it, I won't say anything, just go with it!" said the Queen Mother.
Just like that, everyone started eating. While eating, Qinghe kept picking up dishes for her grandparents and mother, introducing which ones she made as she picked up the dishes.
Although the three of them felt distressed, they still praised Qinghe while eating.
In this way, after a while, everyone was full, and then Wang Shuixiang and Wang Mu took charge of the washing.
Li Kangri was called by Li Yaozu to the room arranged for him.
As soon as he entered the room, Li Yaozu's face darkened. "Kangri, tell me, is this how you live? Look, how much meat did you use for this meal? Do you want to be a landlord?"
"Haha, grandpa, isn't the money earned to be spent? Besides, I didn't spend much. It all came from my apprentice. His father-in-law is a very big capitalist, so this is nothing." Li Kangri explained.
"That won't work. People in our village don't even eat meat once a year. We can't do this anymore in the future," said Li Yaozu.
"Grandpa, this won't work. Look at Yue'er and the wives of my two apprentices. They are all pregnant and need nourishment!"
"Then let the three of them eat well, and we'll be almost done. Look at you, you don't even eat white flour buns, you only eat meat." Li Yaozu said.
"Hey! Grandpa, let me tell you the truth. I can treat illnesses and I specialize in treating difficult and complicated diseases. I can earn hundreds of dollars at a time. How can I spend the money if I don't eat well?" Li Kangri said.
"What? You can treat illnesses?" Li Yaozu asked in surprise, "Hundreds of dollars each time? How come I didn't know that?"
"Grandpa, I know you don't believe it. When I was in school, I met a teacher who taught me everything. There's nothing I can do if you don't believe it. Can we not talk about this?" Li Kangri said speechlessly.
"Old man, you keep talking about my grandson. Okay, my grandson is not a kid, he knows how to live. If you don't like it, don't eat it. I will eat it. Besides, I believe my grandson is capable. He is the only one in our village who has been to school." Grandma Li looked at Li Kangri kindly and said.
"Grandpa, look at how good my grandma is at talking. You, don't know whether she likes to eat or not. Your son lives in a place that's like a palace, and you're still blaming me. If you have the ability, go educate your son." Li Kangri shifted the focus.
Li Kangri's words successfully diverted the fire. When Li Yaozu heard Li Kangri mention Li Renyi, he immediately asked, "Huh, are you talking about that heartless guy? You see how I deal with him. Now you tell me, when will you take me to see him?"
"Hey, Grandpa, you have the final say. It's anytime, as long as you are willing. It's not far away. I can just ride my bike for a while." Li Kangri said casually.
But what he didn't expect was that as soon as he said that, Li Yaozu said, "Okay! Then now."
"Ah! Grandpa, don't you need to take a rest? In fact, you can do it tomorrow." Li Kangri said weakly.
"No, right now. I don't want to wait. You have to go to work tomorrow! I called you in just for this." Li Yaozu said.
"Ah?" Li Kangri looked at his grandmother, "Grandma, please persuade Grandpa, he still needs to go to bed!"
"I also want to see him now. If that heartless guy doesn't come to see me, I will go to see him." Grandma said.
Hearing his grandmother's words, Li Kangri was speechless, but then he thought that his grandparents might really miss their son, so he said, "Okay, I'll go call my apprentice, and we'll ride our bicycles over there."
