Reborn as a landlord!I can

Chapter 121

Li Yisheng:......

"Brother, I'm not old, I'm only 42, three years younger than you!"

Li Shengguo's heart was broken. He used to be a handsome young man who charmed many young ladies. It was his determination to serve the motherland that kept him from getting lost in the gentle countryside.

Li Yichang was also a little stunned. He rubbed his nose uncomfortably. He didn't mean it, but he had changed a bit.

"That Asheng, you have changed a lot. Brother couldn't stop talking for a while, hehe, hehehe..."

The handsome boy before was not only darker and stronger now, but he also looked several years older than his brother, so he couldn't hold it back.

Li Yichang chuckled. This surprise and fright drove away his sleepiness, and he was now full of energy.

He took Li Yisheng's arm and walked to the main room, found a chair and sat Li Yisheng down.

"Come sit down and tell me about your past years and how you have been. I received a letter from you a few years ago, but you didn't explain anything in it. Are you really married and have children?"

Li Yichang also sat down and began to care about this brother who had disappeared for nearly 20 years.

Because of Li Yichang's straightforward words just now, most of the strange barrier between the two of them, who had not seen each other for nearly 20 years, disappeared. Li Shengguo began to briefly talk about his life away from home.

"I left home in the late spring of 18th year of the Republic of China. I joined a Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army team on the way and went south with them. Later, I spent most of my time fighting in the Sichuan-Shaanxi base areas and other areas. I was lucky enough to save my life over the years. From a small soldier to a regiment leader, he was injured not long ago and was assigned to serve in the new liberated area near my hometown. I didn't expect to find you."

Li Shengguo omitted all the hardships of more than ten years and only briefly talked about his past.

"My wife was introduced by my 40-year-old leader. She is a medical soldier. She gave birth to a son in the second year after marriage, but the two of them spend most of their time at the rear."

Li Shengguo felt a little regretful when he thought about his son. He missed his son's childhood and half of his childhood. Fortunately, it was not too late.

Li Yichang nodded. Fortunately, the leaders remembered the difficulties of these officers and knew who to introduce them to. Otherwise, when would his brother have a wife and children.

"Why is dad gone?"

Li Shengguo thought about the information he saw again, that his father was gone, and he choked up and spoke.

Li Yichang couldn't help but feel sad when he thought of that gentle old man.

"I don't know. At the end of summer, my father suddenly became ill. He wanted to go back to his hometown. Later, we took him back to his hometown for treatment. As a result, the illness continued intermittently and he never fully recovered. In the autumn, he was gone. Before leaving, he was still sick. Thinking of you."

Tears welled up in Li Shengguo's eyes. He was so unfilial as a son and would not be by his father's side in life or death.

"Okay, Ah Sheng, don't be sad. We all know that you are busy with important matters. It is normal to make choices when you are tied up. Dad also has several sons and grandsons with him. There is no regret or loneliness at all."

Li Yichang patted him on the back, really not wanting him to continue to feel sad.

"By the way, when will you meet the third and fourth children, as well as your brothers and sisters, nephews and nieces."

Li Shengguo thought that he had been away from home for many years and was meeting his siblings, nephews and others for the first time, so he needed to prepare something, so he said he would wait until the children had their weekend off.

"Okay, we will all go back to the small mountain village by then. You can go back with me. We are all in the same place anyway, so there is no rush."

The two chatted for a long time, until it was almost night and their sister-in-law stayed overnight, and they realized that it was too late.

"Brother and sister-in-law, I will go back first. Your brother and sister are still pregnant. I have to go back and take care of them. I will come over to talk to you when I have time."

Li Shengguo thought of his pregnant wife and son, and immediately wanted to go back.

"Sister-in-law, I will bring my wife over to talk to you when I have time. Please help me take care of her."

"Okay, come here when you are free. I'll stay in the shop whenever I have nothing to do. I'm happy to have someone to talk to."

Tang Baozhu entered the Li family early and had taken care of several brothers-in-law. He knew a little about their character and believed in his vision, so he agreed happily.

Li Shengguo ran to the door and realized that he had forgotten to mention that he had changed his name. He looked back at his eldest brother, who could be said to be fat and white, and hesitated for a moment.

"Well, brother, I, I..."

Li Yichang didn't say anything. He had a bad feeling in his heart. When his second brother made a mistake, he would ask him for help when he was young. This must still be the same now.

"Speak honestly and quickly."

"I changed my name. Now I'm called Shengguo instead of Yisheng."

Li Shengguo bravely finished these words in a low voice, turned around and strode away, leaving a dumbfounded Li Yichang behind.

"what did he say?"

Li Yichang pointed to the door and looked at Tang Baozhu blankly.

Tang Baozhu was also a little confused. It was of great significance to know that the names of their brothers were all given by their mother-in-law who died young.

"This brat, he dared to change his name. It's a disgrace to him."

Li Yichang was so angry that he started to go around in circles. He wanted to pay homage to his father and tell him that his second brother had been found and that he was safe and honorable. How could he go to see his father after what happened to him.

"Yichang, the second brother only changed his name, so it shouldn't be a big problem. Maybe it's because their army has a requirement, or maybe there is someone with the same name, just to distinguish him..."

Tang Baozhu said something that she didn't even believe. She looked at Li Yichang's face and said, "You are making it up, you are making it up, you are making it up, you are trying to see if I am a fool." Finally, she couldn't speak anymore.

Li Yichang snorted and went back to find some paper money for incense and candles, preparing to worship his ancestors and inform his parents that their two sons were back.

Tang Baozhu rolled her eyes at him speechlessly. The stinky man was dragging him to his feet. He even dared to hum for her. Let's see how she dealt with him.

When Li Shengguo returned home, he saw his wife and son guarding the door. The son was holding a fan in his hand to fan his mother.

"Why did you come back so late today? Did something big happen?"

Zhao Liyun breathed a sigh of relief when she saw him coming back. Even though they were in the liberated area and were stationed by their own troops, there were still stubborn rebels wreaking havoc secretly, often resorting to horrific means to retaliate.

Li Shengguo patted his son Li Zhao's head as a compliment, helped his wife slowly enter the house, and told him today's happy event.

"Nothing big happened. I found my eldest brother and the others by accident today."

"Really?"

Zhao Liyun raised her head in surprise, her eyes full of joy.

"Well, really, they are here and have been settled for three years. When you get off work tomorrow, I will take you to meet your elder brother, sister-in-law and three younger brothers and sisters. They are in the shop in the county."

"Okay, will they be dissatisfied with me?"

Zhao Liyun began to panic, ran to the mirror and began to look at herself. The more she looked, the more disappointed she became. She was too ugly.

Because of her pregnancy, she gained more than two pounds, her face was fleshy and had spots, and she was more than twice as uglier than when she was pregnant with her son.

"Don't worry, you're fine. You're just a little fat due to pregnancy. You'll be fine once you give birth to the baby. Besides, you're my wife, so I'll be happy with you."

Li Shengguo quickly comforted him. Last time he heard a female doctor say that women tend to have random thoughts and insecurities when they are pregnant. He should be comforted and encouraged.
