Chapter 216 I'm Really Back
"No, no!"

"Grandpa, I can't do it. Can you please stop pushing me?"

Luo Huijuan was feeling sad, and when she suddenly heard Luo Jiwu's proposal, she quickly refused.

Although she and Li Guoqiang did not go to the last step, as a girl who grew up in the old times, she was loyal to the Three Obediences and Four Virtues in her bones, and she really could not do anything to betray Li Guoqiang.

"you"

When Luo Jiwu heard this, he instantly felt a surge of anger in his heart, and then he cursed loudly: "You damn girl, why are you so stubborn?"

"As a member of the Luo family, you don't care about the Luo family's incense, but just want to marry that brat every day. You are really useless!"

"I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. You have to agree to this marriage even if you don't agree to it."

"Otherwise, don't acknowledge me as your grandfather anymore. I don't have a granddaughter as unfilial as you!"

"grandfather!"

When Luo Huijuan heard what Luo Jiwu said, she couldn't help crying and said, "Why do you have to force me? Didn't my parents say that they could let Xiaofu give birth to a child with the surname Luo to help the Luo family pass on the incense? Why do you still force me like this?"

"Humph!"

Luo Jiwu snorted coldly, and then said with some disdain: "Don't think I don't know what your parents are up to. Aren't they just trying to fool me first?"

"They said they would change the child's surname, but who knows if it will be changed back after I die?"

"So the best way is to find a live-in husband for you. No matter how many children you have in the future, they will all be members of my Luo family."

In fact, the reason why he chose the orphan of his comrade-in-arms was because the young man was a country boy and after entering the city, he could only rely on Luo Huijuan for a living, so he didn't have to worry that the other party would snatch the incense from his Luo family.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be easier if he just followed Li Dawei and Yao Meilan's suggestion, waited for Li Guofu to get married and have children, and then adopted a child to the Luo family?
"you"

After hearing this, Luo Huijuan was stunned, and then she said in disbelief: "How can you think like that? In all these years, when have your parents ever let you down?"

"Especially my dad. Even though he's his biological son, he's the best at what he does!"

"How can you think of them like that?"

"How else can you think otherwise?"

Luo Jiwu raised his eyebrows, and then said with a look of disapproval: "Do you think he is filial to me voluntarily? It's because he wanted to marry your mother back then, so he had to deal with a useless person like me!"

"I originally thought that he was a decent person, but I didn't expect that he would not only snatch our grandson away, but also want to marry our granddaughter to his sick son, leaving our Luo family without descendants."

"Do you think he is too despicable?"

"Grandpa, you misunderstood!"

Luo Huijuan frowned, then hurriedly explained: "This matter was discussed by my mother and me from the beginning. It has nothing to do with my father. You can't blame him for this."

"I do not care!"

Luo Jiwu waved his hand and said firmly, "If you still recognize you as my granddaughter, you should listen to me and go get the marriage certificate with Wei Min tomorrow."

"Grandpa~"

Seeing Luo Jiwu's stubborn look, Luo Huijuan couldn't help but shout out in pain.

She was already heartbroken over Li Guoqiang's change of heart, and now Luo Jiwu was forcing her to remarry.

This undoubtedly made her feel even more miserable.

If she didn't still have some thoughts about Li Guoqiang, she would probably have thought about dying right now.

Just when the atmosphere was becoming somewhat tense, Li Guoqiang returned to the gate of the courtyard carrying large and small bags of things, and happened to run into an acquaintance.

"You are."

"Are you Qiangzi?"

"Didn't you go to the countryside? Why are you back?"

"Also, are you feeling better now?"

As soon as Qin Jingru walked out of the gate, she ran into Li Guoqiang head-on, and was instantly stunned by his handsome appearance and upright posture. Her big, watery eyes suddenly widened. If you didn't know, you would think she was seeing a ghost!
"Ah!"

Li Guoqiang was delighted to see Qin Jingru's reaction, and then he joked with interest: "What's the matter? Aunt Jingru, I changed my clothes, don't you recognize me?"

After saying that, his gaze slid from Qin Jingru's fair and small face, along her delicate and slender neck, and finally settled on the two people who called each other brothers. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

If you look at her alone, you really can't tell that she is already in her thirties. She looks like a little girl. She really deserves to be one of the four golden flowers in this courtyard!
"Where are you looking, you little brat?"

When Qin Jingru heard Li Guoqiang's words and noticed his gaze, she shuddered all over and then hurriedly started to scold him with some embarrassment.

After saying that, she turned around and ran into the courtyard without waiting for Li Guoqiang to speak.

Li Guoqiang looked at Qin Jingru's fleeing back, and his mind couldn't help but emerge the scene of Qin Jingru gritting her teeth and supporting herself with a big rock with her hands.

What a circle!
It’s a pity that he was still in a very sick state at that time and couldn’t appreciate it too much.

If he can successfully settle down in Sijiu City in the future, perhaps he can talk to Qin Jingru about the future.

At this moment, it is more important to go home and visit my family.

Thinking of this, he hurriedly took a step forward, stepped onto the bluestone threshold, and suddenly met an acquaintance.

"you"

"Are you Qiangzi?"

Yan Bugui pushed the bicycle with both hands, looking at the tall and handsome young man in front of him with a stunned look on his face. The lenses on his nose reflected a light of disbelief. It was obvious that he was frightened by the sudden appearance of Li Guoqiang.

"Yo!"

Li Guoqiang was delighted, and then he laughed and joked, "Uncle, we haven't seen each other for more than half a year, don't you recognize me?"

"I still miss you teaching me how to fish! You make me so sad!"

"Forehead"

Upon hearing this, Yan Bugui came back to his senses immediately, and then waved his hand hastily to explain: "Well, I didn't expect you to come back so soon!"

"By the way, weren't you in the countryside? Why did you come back suddenly?"

As he spoke, he looked at Li Guoqiang for a while, and then quickly turned his gaze to the bags in Li Guoqiang's hands, with a curious look on his face.

"This is what happened." When Li Guoqiang heard Yan Bugui's question, he immediately told him about going to Beijing to report his work to the old man. He also took out the award certificate he had received and showed it in front of Yan Bugui, which immediately frightened Yan Bugui.

Then, when Yan Bugui reacted, he was so envious that his eyes turned red.

You know, this is a certificate of award personally issued by the higher-ups!

He has taught students for most of his life, and the biggest award he has ever received is just an outstanding teacher certificate issued by the school. In comparison, there is a world of difference between them.

If he could get a certificate of honor from above, he would be willing to do it even if it meant emptying his family's savings!
"that."

When Li Guoqiang saw Yan Bugui's reaction, his mood instantly became better, and then he hurriedly smiled and said, "Third Uncle, if you have nothing else to do, I will go back first, and we will talk next time when we have time."

After saying this, he walked towards his own courtyard without waiting for Yan Bugui to react.

Upon seeing this, Yan Bugui finally came to his senses, and then looked at Li Guoqiang's back with envy and jealousy, and was almost jealous to death of Li Guoqiang's achievements.

Originally, he thought that Li Guoqiang would be finished in two years after going to the countryside. However, who would have thought that Li Guoqiang not only became strong and powerful, but also became an outstanding representative and received a certificate of honor from above.

If the situation continues like this, won’t we all go to heaven in a few years?

At this time, Li Guoqiang did not care about Yan Bugui's thoughts. He walked quickly into his own yard, and when he saw the familiar environment in front of him, his pace slowed down suddenly. He felt even more timid as he was closer to home.

Then he took a deep breath, fixed his gaze on the small kitchen where smoke was rising, and a slight smile appeared on his face.

Then, he placed the luggage he brought back at the door of the house and walked slowly towards the small kitchen.

Soon, he stood at the door and saw Yao Meilan busy at the stove. He then shouted with a little excitement: "Little Mom, I'm back!"

Hearing his voice, Yao Meilan's whole body stiffened suddenly, and then she turned her head sharply to look at the door.

When she saw Li Guoqiang's handsome face, she began to tremble slightly as if struck by lightning.

After a long while, she asked excitedly, "Qiangzi, is it really you?"

"It's me, I'm back!"

Li Guoqiang nodded, then spoke softly.

As soon as he finished speaking, Yao Meilan suddenly ran over, hugged Li Guoqiang into her arms, and two lines of tears flowed from her eyes.

"Just come back, just come back!"

Seeing this, Li Guoqiang felt warm in his heart, and then he quickly reached out and patted Yao Meilan on the back.

After a while, Yao Meilan's emotions finally calmed down a little. She quickly let go of her hands, stepped back a few steps, and continued to knead Li Guoqiang.

When she found that Li Guoqiang's body had really become very strong and solid, she immediately felt relieved and a very happy smile appeared on her face.

"That's great, you're finally feeling better. I thought you were just saying nice things to coax us!"

After laughing for a while, she seemed to have thought of something and quickly asked, "By the way, why did you suddenly come back today? Did something happen?"

"no!"

Li Guoqiang shook his head and explained: "I came back this time because..."

Soon, he explained the reason for returning to the city, and at the same time did not forget to take out the certificate to show Yao Meilan.

When Yao Meilan saw the certificate, she couldn't help but jump for joy.

She didn't expect that Li Guoqiang not only took good care of his health in the countryside, but also achieved such outstanding results.

If the situation continues like this, then in a few years, she will be able to have a son who becomes an official.

"Qiangzi, you really made us proud. I wonder who will dare to say you are useless in the future."

"Mom, where's my dad?"

Upon hearing this, Li Guoqiang did not respond, but instead asked about Li Dawei.

If you were to say who he most wants to tell about his achievements, it would be Li Dawei.

Until now, he still remembers very clearly the worry and expectation in Li Dawei's eyes when he sent him to the countryside.

Although he and Li Dawei had not spent a long time together, he had already accepted Li Dawei as a father and naturally hoped to make Li Dawei happy.

"Yeah!"

When Yao Meilan heard Li Guoqiang asking about Li Dawei, she couldn't help but said with some annoyance: "Look, I was so happy that I forgot about your father."

"Come on, let's go and tell your dad the good news!"

After saying that, she hurriedly pulled Li Guoqiang towards their room.

Little did she know that in her joy, she actually forgot to ask Li Guoqiang whether he had registered his marriage with someone in the countryside, and she also forgot that Luo Jiwu was forcing Luo Huijuan to remarry at that time.

Soon, Li Guoqiang followed Yao Meilan into the house, carrying bags of things.

When Li Dawei saw Yao Meilan come in, he was about to ask if dinner was ready, but suddenly his attention was attracted by the figure following Yao Meilan, and he felt as if he was frozen.

"Dad, I'm back!"

Li Guoqiang looked at Li Dawei's haggard face and the few strands of white hair growing on his temples. His heart suddenly ached, and he shouted with a choked voice.

Hearing his words, Li Dawei was shocked all over, and then he said in disbelief: "Am I dreaming?"

"dad!"

Seeing Li Dawei like this, Li Guoqiang hurried forward, grabbed Li Dawei's hand, and then, suppressing his sadness, he said in a deep voice: "Dad, you are not dreaming, I am really back!"

Li Dawei stared at Li Guoqiang's face, which was 80% similar to his late wife. His lips moved slightly, and then he suddenly reached out and hugged Li Guoqiang into his arms. With tears streaming down his face, he said, "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back!"

"Dad~"

Upon seeing this, Li Guoqiang hurriedly hugged Li Dawei's shoulders as if he was hugging an old child, and felt deeply moved in his heart.

If there is anyone in this world who cares for and loves him unconditionally, Li Dawei is definitely one of them, and that will never change.

He was very lucky to have such a good father.

Yao Meilan stood aside, looking at the deep love between father and son, and suddenly felt a little complicated in her heart.

Originally everything was as she had imagined, but now that Li Guoqiang has become so outstanding, she doesn’t know whether this is a good thing or a bad thing?
