Chapter 922 Warm Time

This is the most down-to-earth and comfortable New Year that Li Ling has had in recent years.

Since returning to Beijing from Jiangnan, he has been busy, and even a stable year is a luxury. He is either on the way to northern Xinjiang or worrying about the transportation of food and supplies. Not to mention accompanying his family for the New Year, he even has to take out the only spare time when he wants to write a letter to his family.

This time, Ding You returned home, gave him such an opportunity to accompany his family. Since burying Li Tong, he stayed at home with his wife, daughters and sisters, and sometimes he never went out for several days.

On the one hand, it was due to weather, and after the twelfth lunar month, Jiangcheng County was rainy and snowy, and there was no way to go out; on the other hand, it was because he was now Ding You, so it was really difficult to walk around. Even Wanjia, which had a close relationship with him in Hengzhou Prefecture, just sent someone to visit him, but he did not really go there.

However, the Wan family not only sent people to Li Tong's funeral, but also came to visit during the Chinese New Year. After all, Li Ling's identity is far higher than that of everyone in the Wan family, so they naturally want to maintain this relationship steadily.

Then, except for the people in the county town, Li Ling did not have more contacts with others. Because during this period, the matter of Li Tong being the elder of Luotian Sect and being executed by the court had already spread in Hengzhou and even the entire Huaibei officialdom. Although Li Ling was not implicated, everyone was still waiting and watching at this time and did not dare to act rashly.

Li Ling didn't care much about what these people did, and he was happy to be free. In the past few years, he had been in the officialdom and had been having social events, which made him bored. If he could live a comfortable life like this, it would be a good thing for him.

The only thing that made Li Ling feel a little worried was the situation of his sister and daughter. Li Tong's death really hit them a lot, especially after knowing the whole story, they were a little panicked while sad, fearing that it would affect their younger brother (uncle)'s career, but they didn't know how to speak.

The only thing Li Ling can do is to let Yang Qingxiao come forward and comfort her more, and talk to them more when she is free, and try to relieve their confusion. When it was late in the first lunar month and the weather improved, he took his family out of the city for a few times to relax.

The same is true today. In the morning, the sun was shining, and Li Ling took his family to the western suburbs of the county town. While grilling for a picnic, he asked his daughter and the others to fly kites.

Under Li Ling's guidance, Li Moyun and others have greatly improved their barbecue techniques. In addition, the various seasonings he bought were sprinkled on various meat skewers and vegetables. The attraction was even on the kite flying in the sky, making Li Nianyou just spin around his father's feet, and he didn't even bother to watch the kite that made a big eagle.

"Haha... what kind of skewers you have eaten, it seems that when you grow up, you are also a standard foodie..." Li Ling said, handing the little meat skewers he had roasted to his daughter. Li Nianyou immediately smiled and grabbed it. He was not afraid of being hot, so he ate the meat in a few bites.

After that, he hugged his father again and shouted: "Dad, I still want..."

"Come on, have some food." Seeing that his daughter had eaten three or four skewers of meat, Li Ling stopped giving it and handed over the grilled vegetables. To be honest, the price of vegetables is not lower than that of meat, but the little girl was obviously not interested in it and wanted to refuse, but after meeting his father's gaze, she still took it with embarrassment and ate it in small sips.

This will inevitably be another carnivore in the future... Li Ling grinned and sent several grilled skewers of meat and vegetables to the side to watch Tangtang and his wife and sister flying kites: "How is it, don't you go and fly kites together?"

Li Le'er pursed her lips and smiled: "No, just let them play." The family's concern made her mood significantly improve. As for Tangtang, she was not old and had fewer worries, and she had already walked out of the haze. At this time, she was running with her aunt Yue'er with a smile, allowing the kite to fly higher.

Yang Qingxiao also smiled, so she naturally wanted to accompany her sister and talk about her daughter's family. In this way, Li Ling couldn't stay in front of them for too long. After explaining a few times, she wandered around elsewhere. Then, after a glance, she found that Li Moyun, who was holding her barbecue position, did not move in her hand, and her eyes fell on someone's body, and her meat was almost burnt.

Seeing this, he also smiled, walked over, and coughed softly: "I'm sore, throw it away."

"Ah...Young Master..." Li Moyun's body was shocked. Even the face, which was not changing at all when facing the strongest enemy, was a little hot at this time. He lowered his eyes and did not dare to have any contact with Li Ling.

"Mo Yun, how old are you this year?" Li Ling suddenly asked with a smile.

"Uh, this... is thirty-two." Li Moyun replied casually.

"I'm only two years younger than me." Li Ling sighed, "I was negligent. I have always forgotten your lifelong affairs, which almost delayed you. How about it, but is there anyone I like? If there is, I will propose marriage to you. Don't worry, you are the brother I trust the most, even if it is a wealthy official and a lady from a wealthy family, that is worthy."

"Young Master, what you said, I... I just want to protect your son, and I don't think about anything else for the time being." Li Moyun quickly refused.

"I really don't want to?" Li Ling smiled narrowly and glanced at his sister's location, "I've given you a chance, don't regret it then."

His eyes were naturally caught by Li Moyun, which made his face even more red, and finally showed a hint of embarrassment. Qiqi Ai Ai Ai said: "I...I...Young Master, I..."

"Mo Yun, you and I are sympathetic to brothers. What do you want to say directly? Say what you want!" Li Ling immediately encouraged.

"I actually fell in love with Sister Le'er for a long time!" Under Li Ling's urging, Li Moyun finally made up his mind and said something in his heart. Then he lowered his head, not daring to see Li Ling's reaction at all.

The opposite side was quiet, without any reaction, which made Li Moyun nervous. He thought that his bold statement had annoyed the young master. He looked up in a panic and then met Li Ling's narrow smile. The two of them looked at each other and he laughed: "It's really not easy. Finally, I let you tell the truth. Do you think I am blind, and you can't even see such obvious admiration?"

"Ah..." Li Moyun was confused. Is it so obvious?

"When I was in Huguang, I saw some clues. Later, when I returned to Beijing, you took good care of my sister on the beginning. Then we went back to Jiangcheng and left separately. You were a little absent-minded in the first few days. Don't tell me that you were afraid of any enemies on the road... You came out with us to relax these days, and you always secretly looked at my sister. If you said you didn't have that mind, you would cheat Nianyou."

Li Moyun's face turned even redder. Unexpectedly, his thoughts had been seen through long ago. It was ridiculous that he always thought it was very hidden.

"To be honest, do you really want to be my brother-in-law and then do your own things with me?" Li Ling smiled again, and in the other party's puzzled gaze, he said again, "Are you sincere?"

"Well...sincere."

"When did it start?" Li Ling asked again.

Li Moyun hesitated for a moment before slowly saying: "Actually, how to calculate it? It's been many years. When she took my sister back with the young master in Jiangcheng, she got along with her. She took good care of me, and then I just... "

This made Li Ling surprised. He didn't expect that Li Moyun's relationship with his sister would appear so early. So, in fact, when he was very sad and upset because of his sister's "death", Li Moyun's mood was actually the same as himself. And he endured it, so he hadn't found the woman he liked for so many years, because he believed that he had already had a relationship and had a woman he could not forget.

It seems that this guy is really commonplace. No...

Li Ling suddenly raised his eyes and stared at the other party again, whispering: "You boy, how different is this from Cao Thief!"

What I got was naturally Li Moyun's puzzled look, who didn't understand at all: "Young Master, this matter..."

"Don't you think my sister is older than you, and she has a daughter after marrying someone?" Li Ling did not explain and raised another critical question.

Li Moyun immediately shook his head: "I fell in love with her back then. At that time, she was older than me, married and had a daughter. But over the years, I found that my feelings for her have not changed at all, but have become deeper."

"You really want to marry her and take good care of my sister in this life?" At this moment, Li Ling's expression also became serious.

"Well! As long as the young master and Sister Le'er agree, I will treat her well. In this life, in the next life..." He nodded vigorously and said in the most sincere words.

"Then I'll tell you. After all, this matter is my sister's own business, and I can't make the decision completely." Li Ling's response was not very confirmed. Although he seemed to be able to make a decision in his current identity, he still felt that he should focus on his sister's wishes.

"I know, thank you, young master..." Li Moyun was immediately happy. With Li Ling helping him, he naturally had a much greater grasp. At the same time, the biggest concern in his heart also disappeared. He was worried that Li Ling would not want to accept such a relationship.

"Hey, have you baked it? It's been so long, but I haven't seen anything come here!" Yang Qingxiao, who was standing beside her, suddenly shouting, expressing her dissatisfaction.

Seeing this, Li Ling hurriedly replied with a smile: "Okay, OK, it seems that my daughter is really following you..." As he said that, he brought a handful of roasted meat and vegetables with him. It would be not too late to talk about this when he got home. Now the most important thing is that the whole family is happy.

At this moment, a man from afar ran over quickly, and until Li Ling came, he gasped and said, "Master, you are looking for you... A guest came to your house and said he had something urgent to talk to you." It was Li Kang, one of the managers of the Li family, who ran to report the news quickly.
