129 Chapter 128, I Don’t Owe You

“If you have a conscience, don’t talk about the future of the children!” Zhang Kun looked at Ji Jianguo and said, “Everything now was painstakingly earned by Ah Xu. She definitely won’t hand it over to you.”

“Sure enough, you don’t feel sorry if it’s not your own children!” Ji Jianguo said sarcastically.

Zhang Kun sneered, “No matter what you say, she can’t lend you this money. Moreover, the children have no intention of joining the army or taking the civil service exam in the future, so whether you owe or kill someone, it has nothing to do with the children’s future.”

Ji Jianguo looked at Li Xu in disbelief, “Li Xu, you…”

“If you still don’t leave, I won’t be polite. In the future, I’ll hit you every time I see you!” Zhang Kun took out a broom from the side.

Ji Jianguo widened his eyes and took a step back.

Seeing this, Li Xu pulled Zhang Kun back and said in a low voice, “Why do you lower yourself to his level? You always take a fight at every turn. If you really hurt him and he acts shamelessly, won’t you be the one at a disadvantage?”

Hearing Li Xu’s words, Ji Jianguo felt a mouthful of blood choking in his heart. He couldn’t swallow it and couldn’t spit it out.

Zhang Kun smiled and said gently, “You’re right. With a person like him, we just need to ignore him!”

Li Xu nodded and looked at Ji Jianguo, “I’ll tell you one last time. You said it yourself that we should not look for you in the future. I’ll return this sentence to you exactly as it was. You have never cared about the three children since they were young. I’ve never received your help for the money I earn now. I don’t owe you anything! You can’t threaten me, and I’m not that kind-hearted. If you’re sensible, don’t appear in front of the four of us in the future!”

Ji Jianguo stood at the door and stared at Li Xu for a long time before he sneered and left.

Seeing him leave, Li Xu heaved a sigh of relief.

“Why did you come at this time?” Li Xu looked at Zhang Kun strangely.

It was only two o’clock!

“Anyway, I have nothing to do now. I thought about it and felt a little worried. Anyway, it’s not far, so I thought of coming over to take a look. Who knew it would be such a coincidence.”

He had just arrived when he ran into Ji Jianguo!

Li Xu also smiled. She smiled and was a little worried, “He won’t come again, right? We’ve already said so much!”

Zhang Kun sighed and didn’t say anything.

After that day, Li Xu was also worried for a few days. But Ji Jianguo never appeared again, so she quickly relaxed.

In the blink of an eye, it was September 18th.

At one o’clock in the afternoon, Li Zhiming called and said that Li Lei had already gone home.

Through the phone, Li Xu and Li Lei said a few words.

After so many years, when she heard her brother’s voice again, Li Xu couldn’t hold back her tears.

“Sis, come back early and bring Brother-in-law back.” Li Lei’s voice was also a little choked up.

“Okay, when your Brother-in-law gets off work, we’ll go over together.”

After hanging up the phone, Li Xu wiped the corners of her eyes.

Li Yong came over at three o’clock in the afternoon. He had applied for leave in the evening. Sure enough, he was carrying a set of clothes. Looking at the packaging, it didn’t seem cheap.

The children finished school at five o’clock. After school, Li Xu packed their things. Li Yong also moved the brand-new bike out. The few of them waited for Zhang Kun to come over while keeping an eye on the shop.

Zhang Kun’s work ended late. He didn’t rush over until half-past six.

Li Xu rode Zhang Kun’s bike, carrying Ji Yuanyuan. Li Yong rode his own bike, carrying his two nephews. Zhang Kun rode Li Xu’s tricycle, which carried the new bike they bought for Li Lei.

The group of people headed to the Li family village.

After taking a turn, they arrived at the Li family village. Ji Zi’ang suddenly shouted, “Is that person my Eldest Uncle?”

They looked ahead and saw a tall and straight figure standing at the door of their house.

People who had served in the army were different from ordinary people. They could tell at a glance that the figure was even taller than a poplar tree.

Ji Zi’ang slid down from Li Yong’s beam.

Li Yong wobbled and almost fell. Fortunately, he used his feet to support himself on the ground, which prevented him from falling.

Ji Zixuan, who was sitting in the back seat, could only jump down.

Seeing Ji Zi’ang run toward Li Lei, Li Yong shouted bravely, “You little b*stard! How many times have you seen your Eldest Uncle? You act like the cowherd and the weaver girl.1”

Li Xu hurriedly asked, “Are you alright? Did you fall?”

Li Yong let out a long sigh, “I’m fine!”

He was also anxious to see Li Lei, so he got back on his bike and headed forward.

“Eldest Uncle!” Ji Zi’ang could not wait to call him from afar.

Li Lei responded and looked at him carefully for a while before asking, “You’re Zi’ang, right?”

Ji Zi’ang was recognized and nodded happily, “Yes, yes, I’m Zi’ang.”

Soon, the others caught up.

Li Lei saw Li Yong and could not help but reach out to pat him on the shoulder, “Thank you for your hard work!”

He had not been home for so many years, and Li Yong was the only boy left in the family. He must have helped the family bear a lot.

When he saw Li Xu, Li Lei’s eyes immediately turned red.

To say that it was not easy, in all these years, the one who had it the hardest was his big sister!

Li Lei stepped forward and took the bicycle. He sobbed and called out, “Big Sister!”

Li Xu replied and forced a smile. “Alright, alright. We’ll talk when we get home.”

Li Lei helped Li Xu push the bicycle home. Ji Yuanyuan was still sitting on the bicycle.

He greeted her gently, “You’re Yuanyuan, right? I’m your Eldest Uncle!”

This was the first time Ji Yuanyuan had officially met Li Lei.

In her previous life, she had seen Li Lei once when she was three years old. At that time, she did not remember anything at all and forgot about it after a few days. Later on, she left with Ji Jianguo. It was not until she had regained contact with Li Xu when she grew up that she met her eldest uncle again.

However, at that time, her eldest uncle had already been ruined beyond recognition by life. However, he was only less than fifty years old and already had a head full of white hair. It was said that his family’s conditions were not good. In order to provide for his two children to go to school, he had done all kinds of work.

At this moment, her eldest uncle did not seem to have any resemblance to that middle-aged man with early-grown white hair.

He was about 1.8 meters tall and looked about the same height as Zhang Kun. He had a buzz cut on his head, and his entire person was clean and neat.

His appearance could be considered as a tough man’s type, making people feel especially safe at a glance.

He wore a physical training uniform issued by the army. It was a short-sleeved shirt, and the muscles on his arms were very strong.

Ji Yuanyuan called out sweetly, “Eldest Uncle!”

Li Lei parked the bicycle in the courtyard and carried Ji Yuanyuan out from the front seat.

He was used to staying in the army and his movements were rough. He was afraid that he would hurt Ji Yuanyuan, so he was very careful when carrying her.
