The bearded guest was very cautious about Li Chengdao at the beginning, but in the past two years, he began to allow the two families to marry each other. This was not just the change in the mentality of the beard guest, but the most important thing was his compromise in interests, because he realized that if he wanted to maintain the Zhang family for a long time, he had to unite with the Li family. .

"Yes, I am old, and I have obviously felt a little over the past two years. Now I am worried that one night of going to bed, and maybe I will never get up the next day. Before that, I must also make a long-term solution for my children and grandchildren. Originally, the natives in the Americas did not have any threats. Even if the children and grandchildren are unfilial, they don't have to worry about not being able to suppress those natives. However, the people from the Li family are different."

When he said this, the bearded guest also showed a hesitant expression. After a moment, he sighed and said, "So I have figured it out. Instead of being on guard against Chengdao and the Li family, it is better to unite with them directly. Anyway, there are not many Han people in the Americas. If there is any internal struggle, it may be that the natives in the Americas will take advantage of it. Moreover, my descendants are unfilial, and there is no one who can take the lead among the hundreds. Instead of giving the foundation I have laid down to them, it is better to just forget Chengdao. Anyway, he is also my adopted son!"

"Uncle, you really thought it through. This matter may make the brothers of the Zhang family dissatisfied!" Although Li Xiu was mentally prepared, he still said in shock when he heard the bearded guest speak directly.

"Hmph, I'm not dead yet. I've beaten this Zhang family with one hand. I'll give it to anyone I want. What's the dissatisfaction with?" The bearded guest snorted coldly when he heard this, and then continued, "It's not that I look down on my children and grandchildren. Even if I give my entire foundation to others, no one of them will rebel like Li Shimin. In the end, they will only crawl under my feet and cry bitterly, begging me not to give the foundation to outsiders because of my blood and family affection. Unfortunately, I don't take this trick!"

The bearded guest had a deep resentment towards his incompetent children and grandchildren, and this was not the first time he complained about Li Xiu's children and grandchildren, but he never thought about why his children and grandchildren became like this. The most important thing is that he did not have the education himself? Of course, Li Xiu only dared to think about these words in his mind, and he absolutely had no courage to say them.

"Uncle, do you know what you are planning?" Li Xiu asked seriously again. Although the decision made by the bearded guest was a bit incredible, if the influence of family affection was abandoned, it would be a very rational decision, and it would also benefit the Zhang family more than the disadvantages, and it would even eliminate the crisis that the Zhang family would face in the future.

"I didn't tell anyone about this, but Chengdao is so smart, he must have noticed it. He had tested me a few times a while ago, and I also responded, but Chengdao seemed not ready to accept this, so I didn't make it clear." When the bearded guest said it at the end, he couldn't help but smile.

Li Xiu didn't know what to say after hearing this. Although he was very supportive of the decision of the Qiuyan Guest, if it was really announced, the children and grandchildren of the Qiuyan Guest would definitely make trouble. At that time, it will depend on the Qiuyan Guest's wrists and Li Chengdao's wisdom.

"But now Qi Niang is going to marry Chengdao. Although Qi Niang is not my biological daughter, she is my niece. You brothers and sisters are much better than my children and grandchildren. I hand over the foundation I have laid to Chengdao. In the future, he will have to hand over these things to him and Qi Niang's son, so just treat it as the dowry I prepared for Qi Niang!" At this time, the bearded guest smiled freely again.

Li Xiu couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this. This dowry is too rich. You should know that the bearded guest can rule tens of thousands of people in the Americas, countless craftsmen under his command, and many mines. He can definitely be called wealthy and a country. He regards a small country as a dowry, which is not the courage that ordinary people can have.

But it is not surprising to think about it carefully, because this is not the first time that the Guest Guest has done such a thing. When he saw Li Shimin, he felt ashamed of himself, so he gave all the money he had prepared for many years to Li Jing, asking him to help Li Shimin and his son to build the Tang Dynasty. It can be said that part of the foundation of the Tang Dynasty was given to the Li family by the Guest Guest. Now he gave the foundation of the Americas to Chengdao, which made Li Xiu wonder if the Guest Guest Guest owed them the Li family?

But when he thought of the above, Li Xiu suddenly felt guilty because he suddenly realized that Li Chengdao was sent to America by himself. If it weren't for him, the bearded guest would not have accepted Li Chengdao. Without Li Chengdao and others, the Zhang family would have been able to dominate the country in America, but now he can only give the foundation he has built to others again.

As soon as Li Xiu showed a guilty expression on his face, the smart bearded guest immediately noticed the perfection in his heart. He laughed loudly, then patted Li Xiu's shoulder and said, "You kid, don't be guilty. Speaking of which, I met Li Shimin because of your father, and gave them all the savings for the first half of my life. Now because of you, Chengdao, the savings for the second half of my life will be sent out. It seems that I did not owe the Li family in my previous life, but you father and son!"

"Uncle, I..." Although the bearded guest was relaxed, Li Xiu still felt a little uncomfortable. After all, he never liked to owe others, but now he can't pay back what he owes to the bearded guest in his life.

"I am a man, a real man, don't act like a little daughter. In addition, I know you don't like your second brother, but he is your father after all, and he is not young anymore. I am really worried that I will not have the chance to see him again in the future, so if you really feel sorry for me, go visit him on my behalf!" The bearded guest saw Li Xiu's hesitant look, and immediately glared at the moment. He is generous and doesn't like men's twitching.

"This...yes!" Although Li Xiu felt very embarrassed when he heard the bearded guest, he finally agreed. He and Li Jing had no intersection in recent years. Even if they met each other face to face, they would not see each other. Even when Li Jin was going to the military academy last time, Li Xiu did not go to find Li Jing, but instead went to find Qin Qiong, because in his opinion, Qin Qiong was much closer than Li Jing.

"Okay, it's already the middle of the night. These words have been in my heart for several years. I haven't found anyone to talk to. It's really uncomfortable. I finally spoke up today and I can finally have a good sleep!" After saying that, the bearded guest said goodbye and left. Li Xiu also personally took him out of the door and then watched him return to his room.

After the bearded guest's door was closed, Li Xiu sighed and turned around to go back to his room. However, just as he walked to the door, he suddenly heard someone open the door on the other side of the cabin. Then Li Yuan came over with a smile on his face. He knew at a glance that he had something to look for him, which made Li Xiu sigh inwardly. It seemed that he would not want to sleep tonight.

"You and Brother Zhang have been talking for so long just now, what have you talked about?" Li Yuan came to Li Xiu and asked straight to the point. It seemed that he had known that the bearded guest was in Li Xiu's room for a long time, so he didn't come out until the other party left.

"It's nothing, I just talked about some private matters, why didn't Your Majesty sleep?" Li Xiu said helplessly at this time. The bearded guest was about to hand over the foundation of America to Li Chengdao. Li Yuan must not know about it, otherwise with his scheming, he might do something?

"It's been so many years, and only last time I was about to leave, did you call me "Father". Do you still resent the fact that I didn't let Pingyang marry you?" Hearing Li Xiu's name, Li Yuan suddenly sighed and said silently.

"This..., let's go in and talk!" Li Xiu couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard Li Yuan's words. In fact, it's nothing to call him "Father", but he has become accustomed to it over the years, and it's really difficult for him to suddenly change his words.

Seeing that Li Xiu did not respond positively, Li Yuan's expression became a little lonely, but he didn't say anything. He immediately followed Li Xiu into the room, and then Li Xiu gently closed the door because he found that Li Yuan had not even changed his clothes. He probably had something to talk to him. It seemed that his previous efforts to let him and the bearded guest rest early were wasted.

After entering the room, Li Xiu personally made a cup of tea for Li Yuan, and asked the other party to sit down and talk. Li Yuan tasted the tea at this time, and then asked, "I heard that you and Xiuning have another son?"

"Yes, this child is named Li Luo. Luo'er's name is taken from Luoyang, which echoes Jin'er's name. It's the first name that Qi Niang thought of." Li Xiu nodded with a smile. It was probably because there was a bearded guest just now, so Li Yuan did not talk about these family affairs with him.

"Not bad, the name Li Luo is very nice, Qi Niang is indeed a girl with Hui Zhilan's heart!" Li Yuan couldn't help but exclaim when he heard Li Xiu's words. In fact, he had already known Pei Ji's name as his little grandson before, but he didn't know that it was Qi Niang who took it.

Speaking of Li Luo, Li Xiu also introduced Li Yuan to Li Yuan about his youngest son. Li Yuan listened very seriously. After all, Princess Pingyang is his favorite daughter. Of course, he also loved her son. When talking, he took the initiative to ask a lot about Li Luo's situation.

However, after talking about Li Luo, Li Yuan pondered for a moment, and then slowly said: "I heard that Cheng Qian's leg broke last year, and my unfilial son even let Tai'er move into the Wude Hall. Is this a matter?"
