Chapter 1565 The Li Family Raises No Useless Beings
Most importantly, Li Mosen was not their biological son. Why did they send him to the Capital and not send Mosen? Could it be that they intended to raise Mosen as their own child, and therefore didn’t want him any longer?
Su Qianci jerked back in astonishment when she heard that. She had never imagined given Jianqian’s young age that he’d think about such things.
Li Sicheng hadn’t expected it either. When he heard it, although he found it a little funny, his heart grew heavy. He crouched down and looked at Li Jianqian.
His expression was grave as he said, “Do you know why I chose you to be sent here?”
Li Jianqian shook his head. His expression was full of grievance.
“Because you are my son. You’re the son of Li Sicheng, and the son of your mother, Su Qianci. There are no children in Grandpa’s home, and your mother is their only daughter. They are now both getting older and need someone to keep them company.” Li Sicheng explained the situation with much effort as he looked at his son. “Ersu is a girl. She cries easily, is a little spoiled, and she’s a little dumb too. You know that, don’t you?”
Li Jianqian held back his tears as he nodded his head. The tears in his eyes slowly disappeared.
“Do you also know why I didn’t send Mosen over here?” Li Sicheng asked.
There were times, at least, when he was patient with his children. Other than when he was explaining their homework to them, this patience was very rarely demonstrated.
Li Sicheng deeply gazed at his son and slowly said, “Because he’s not our biological child. You are aware that Mosen was only adopted by us later on. He’s our family, but he’s unrelated to Grandpa and Grandma. Do you understand?”
The tears in Li Jianqian’s eyes disappeared entirely. He looked at Li Sicheng and firmly nodded his head.
Li Sicheng approved of his son’s demeanor and stroked his head. He said, “It is because you are our son, and our biological child, that I had you sent here. First, you’ll be able to keep Grandpa and Grandma company. Second, it’ll be good training for you. Do you still remember the words that are hanging at the back of Grandfather’s study? Do you remember what those words are?”
Li Jianqian thought for a while before finally replying, “The Li family raises no useless being.”
“It’s good that you know. The Li family does not raise any useless beings. Only through quenching does a piece of metal become stronger. You may still be young, but that’s not an excuse for you to be weak. I need you to become strong.” Li Sicheng looked at his son with a somber expression and said, “Great-Grandfather is getting old, and Grandfather and Grandmother aren’t young anymore either. Should the day come when I’m no longer around, you’ll have to be the pillar of support for the family and take care of your mother and sister. Do you understand?”
Li Jianqian looked at Li Sicheng. His eyes were bright. His face, which resembled Li Sicheng’s so much, revealed that he was moved.
Rong Xuan and Rong Haiyue were both extremely surprised at Li Sicheng’s parenting methods.
Was it really appropriate for a child to be imbibed with these principles at such a young age?
What surprised them even more was that Li Jianqian responded as though he clearly understood it all as he earnestly nodded his head and replied, “Understood.”

“Lately, your youngest uncle’s girlfriend ran into some problems in the Capital,” Li Sicheng said. “In addition to bringing you over, your mom and I came to check on how your uncle is doing. If it’s not settled properly, your uncle’s girlfriend may have to be imprisoned.”
Any worse and she’d be given the death penalty.
Li Jianqian’s eyes widened as he asked, “The police maligned a righteous person? Young Aunt would never do anything bad!”
“We don’t know anything yet,” Li Sicheng said. “Daddy and Mommy are going to take a look. Behave yourself at Grandpa’s and wait for us to come back, OK?”
“Alright!”
