Chapter 178 The Brothers and Sisters Set Sail for Jinling
It was just an unintentional remark to coax the child, but some people couldn't help but be moved.

Li Qiyao was so happy when she heard this, she kept calling her sister "sister". Yang Ge'er, who was holding Yi Ge'er beside her, was very jealous. He didn't care about his friends anymore, he ran over and grabbed Li Yaoguang's clothes and shook her, "Cousin, cousin, no, sister, sister, my dear sister, I want to hug her too!"

Everyone smiled knowingly. Yu Meixue looked at her own child, then at the siblings in front of her, and walked over to Li Qifeng and asked softly, "Good boy, I'm sorry to ask you a question, but do you have any other family members?"

Li Qifeng was stunned by the question, then smiled bitterly, but did not hide it: "I am dissatisfied with you. My father and mother died of illness a few years ago. Yaoyao and I are the only ones left in the family. We have no relatives or friends."

Even though she had guessed it in her heart, Yu Meixue still sighed heavily after hearing this, "Good child, it's my fault. Please don't blame me if I'm offended."

Li Qifeng said calmly, "It's okay, it's okay, ignorance is not a problem, you worry too much."

Yu Meixue observed his words and actions, and the character of the child in front who sympathized with the weak and subconsciously took the two burdens with him to escape, so Yu Meixue nodded secretly.

"Qifeng, to be honest, my Yaoguang is also a poor child. Her parents died early, and she married into my useless aunt. She has always suffered. Today, our two families have a rare fate. I am very happy to see you brothers and sisters, but I have an unreasonable request."

Li Qifeng was still very polite. He waved his hand and said politely, "You go ahead."

"My child, you and my niece both have the surname Li, and we have the same name. We also have the fate of saving each other's lives. Why don't you two recognize each other as sworn brothers and sisters? In the future, my Yaoguang will have brothers and sisters in her family, and you will have a sister with the same surname to help you. You can rely on each other and move forward. What do you think?"

In this world, even in times of peace and prosperity, orphans like them who have no father, no mother and no relatives are the most coveted and bullied. What's more, they have a young sister. Even if they have the title of scholar, it is very difficult to support their sister and let her continue her studies, not to mention the current chaotic times.

The person in front of him proposed to recognize his relatives. It seemed abrupt, but Li Qifeng actually knew that the other party was thinking of the grace of saving his life and had good intentions, so he made such a proposal. His original intention was to help and help take care of them, right?
Otherwise, just because they rescued him and brought them safely out of the cannibalistic purgatory of Yangzhou, how can he repay the favor?
What's more, this girl Li Yaoguang is more capable than me, and the scholar who is good-for-nothing is referring to me.

All in all, this recognition of relatives is an advantage for himself, but for the sake of his sister... thinking of the young shoulders that have carried him all the way, Li Qifeng considered it again and again and nodded heavily.

"it is good!"

As he nodded, Yu Meixue and Cheng Su's eyes were filled with joy, and they were ready to finalize the relationship immediately.

After the two jealous kids on the side knew that they had really become family, Liangwa looked at each other in surprise, and then became very happy. One had a cousin, and the other had a sister and cousin, they were all family members. The two kids danced with joy and showed love to each other, which made Yige on the side envious.

Ji Mo, who had quietly stepped away after talking with Yi Ge'er, also fell silent when he saw this scene. Especially when Cheng Su came up happily and asked him and Gu Qing and others who had come on board to be witnesses of the recognition of relatives, and also took out silver and asked Ji Ding to help prepare the banquet, Ji Mo became more depressed.

Speaking of which, he is obviously the eldest brother, he is the eldest brother first! Is there such a broken sister?
Unfortunately, no one noticed his unhappiness. Even the only sister he recognized didn't have time to pay attention to him. Only Manager Ji, who took the silver, noticed that his master was not in a good mood, and looked at him nervously with the silver in his hand.

What else can Ji Mo do? He has adopted this heartless sister, so he can only pamper her as usual.

At this time, someone does not know that pampering often becomes a habit.

Yu Men Mo nodded heavily at Ji Ding. Ji Ding seemed to be pardoned and hurriedly left with the silver in his hands.

Ji Ding was very reliable. He prepared eight tables of banquets on the boat that night. Except for those who were arranged to leave and go into the city early, the rest, including the people from Linhai Pavilion on the neighboring boat, were all invited to sit down and witness the recognition of Li Yaoguang, Li Qifeng and Li Qiyao.

Since then, Li Yaoguang also had relatives from her mother's side, and Li Qifeng and his sister also had their aunt and uncle to rely on. Reuniting after a disaster and adding new relatives were all happy things. Everyone sat around the table without distinction between men and women. After three rounds of wine and five kinds of dishes, Gu Qing raised his glass and clinked glasses with everyone. After drinking one, he put down the glass and leaned over to ask Li Yaoguang.

"Miss Li, now that we have crossed the river and arrived in the south, everyone is safe. I wonder what your plans are next? I heard you say that you were going to settle in Nanjing. Is that still the case now?"

Li Yaoguang nodded and put down her chopsticks, but said, "Yes, yes, but Sister Gu, today we are recognizing each other, I have already called you Sister Gu, so you should also call me Yaoguang. We share hardships and are family."

Gu Qing knew Li Yaoguang's temper. She meant what she said and was sincere. She didn't look down on them, the lower class people. Her eyes were full of smiles. She quickly followed suit and filled her glass again and raised it, "Okay, I'm the elder sister and you're the younger sister. Sister Yaoguang, come on, let's go."

Li Yaoguang also quickly poured wine and raised his glass. The two cups clinked together and drank it all. Li Yaoguang then said, "Sister Gu, what are your plans? Are you going to Jinling with me? If so, how about..."

Before Li Yaoguang could finish her words, Ji Mo, who was sitting next to her, glanced over and said, "No!"

Li Yaoguang was dumbfounded and thought to himself, I didn't say anything, why can't you do this?
Meeting Li Yaoguang's gaze, Ji Mo calmly shook his head: "No!"

"Why?"

Ji Mo raised his hand and gently tapped the two people who were talking excitedly, "Your uncle's foot injury has not healed yet and he needs to be nursed. Your new brother's injury should not be moved either."

Um, okay, it really is.

Li Yaoguang looked at Gu Qing with regret and was about to apologize, but Gu Qing smiled and turned the wine glass in his hand: "Actually, that's not the case. We are taking a boat up the river, and the journey is not bumpy. If..."

Ji Mo raised his eyebrows, "No ifs. My patients are fine and can be moved. I have the final say. Besides, I have to go to Jinling too. Don't worry about my people."

Gu Qing looked at Ji Mo and then at Li Yaoguang, shook his head, and suddenly smiled again.

She said nothing, but Li Yaoguang looked at her eldest brother in surprise: "Brother, you are going to Jinling too? No way? Didn't your people go to Danyang Prefecture? If you don't go, what will they do?"

Ji Mo suddenly wanted to roll his eyes, "They are them and I am me. Besides, I have already said that without me as their master, they will be fine. None of this matters! Besides, I received news that the people who withdrew from Wuding Prefecture are now in Jinling. My most beneficial steward is still waiting for me there, so I have to go and take a look."

"Oh, is that so?"

Ji Mo nodded heavily, "Of course."

Gu Qing beside her just kept laughing.

Just like that, when the sun rose the next day, two large and small ships set sail one after another, going upstream along the south bank of the river, heading for Jinling together.

What's wrong with this book? I haven't had any recommendations for more than a month. Qidian.com and QQ don't have any. But Hongxiu gives me two in a month. What's the big deal?
From the time I started writing to now, I’ve only had two people give me thumbs up on Qidian. I’m so crying.

Am I just in such bad shape, or am I just writing badly? My glass heart is shattered...
