1900: A physics genius wandering around Europe

Chapter 153: The wandering son returns home, pitying the hearts of parents all over the world
When Li Qiwei and his group walked through the crowd and out of the dock, what they saw was a prosperous scene.

"Little sister, little sister."

At this moment, Xiang Lan suddenly heard a familiar voice.

She turned her head to look at the source of the sound, and then covered her mouth with her hands.

Excitement, joy, longing, all kinds of emotions mixed together, making the little girl unable to hold back her composure and tears in her eyes.

Li Qiwei noticed her abnormality and looked at Lao Song, but he had no impression of that man.

"Xiang Lan, what's wrong? Is that person your relative?"

Xiang Lan choked up and said, "That's my eldest brother."

At this time, Lao Song walked over quickly. When he saw Xiang Lan up close, spring seemed to appear on his face.

Xianglan threw herself into her eldest brother's arms, enjoying the long-lost affection between relatives.

Li Qiwei and his companions just watched quietly from the side without saying anything to disturb them.

Old Song had been traveling for many years, so he naturally knew the ways of the world. He gently helped his sister up.

"Okay, little sister, don't cry, there are so many people here."

After saying that, he looked at the young man beside him.

Dressed in a suit and looking energetic, one can tell at a glance that he is the center of the group.

"You are the Third Young Master, right?"

"Hello, hello, I'm Song Hong'er's elder brother, my name is Song Daquan, you can call me Xiao Song."

After saying that, Song Daquan looked at Li Qiwei respectfully. He was a little nervous for a moment and didn't know where to put his hands.

Li Qiwei smiled slightly, but was a little speechless at the same time. The other person looked almost a generation older than him, so how could he call him Xiao Song?

"Haha, you are older than me and Xiang Lan's elder brother, so I will call you Brother Song."

Song Daquan felt very honored to have such a relationship with Young Master Li Qiwei. He would definitely be able to pull a cart very quickly in the future.

At the same time, he was wondering who Xiang Lan was. He didn't even know her, so how could she be the other person's elder brother?

Then, after Xiang Lan's explanation, he finally understood, and at the same time he felt more grateful to Li Qiwei in his heart.

I am so lucky to have my own little sister.

With the joining of Song Daquan, Li Qiwei and others felt much more relaxed.

He called his friends and found another dozen rickshaws, and then loaded all the luggage of Li Qiwei and his group onto the rickshaws.

They marched towards the Li family mansion in a mighty procession.

Sitting in the simple rickshaw, Li Qiwei felt a little curious. This thing is a fashionable thing now.

At the same time, he thought of his previous plan to cooperate with Karl Benz to develop Mercedes-Benz cars and then bring them back to China, but in the end he had to give up.

On the one hand, he really didn't have any extra time.

On the other hand, Hu Xizhong told him that it is rather troublesome to ship products like cars from overseas to China, especially for private use.

After his explanation, Li Qiwei realized that as early as two years ago, in 2, the Qing Dynasty had its first car, and it was the second-generation product of Mercedes-Benz.

It was a gift presented by Yuan Shikai to Empress Dowager Cixi on her 66th birthday.

It is said that when Cixi saw the car, she liked it very much, so she asked a young eunuch to be the driver and take her for a ride, which caused a lot of jokes.

Cixi: This horse runs so fast, it must eat a lot of grass.

Cixi: This is really outrageous. A mere eunuch dares to be on an equal footing with me. You better kneel down and drive for me!
Young eunuch: I drove Karl Lagerfeld’s car.

Little eunuch
Li Qiwei was thinking about these jokes in his mind, and before he knew it, the convoy arrived in front of an extremely magnificent and solemn mansion.

The two huge stone lions at the door are lifelike and majestic, reflecting the owner's noble status.

This is where the wealthy Li family of Guangzhou lives.

However, today, the Li residence, which was usually mysterious and had its doors tightly closed, had its front door wide open, with dozens of servants and housekeepers standing neatly around it.

Clustered in the middle were Li’s family members.

As for the two elegant old men in the middle, they are the real owner of the Li residence, Li Tingzhao, and his wife Ye Guizhen.

They just received a report from a rickshaw driver saying that the third young master of the Li family has returned.

Li Tingzhao could no longer sit still and immediately called everyone in the house to go to the gate to welcome them.

Although Ridgway had previously sent a telegram saying he would be returning in the near future, he did not give a specific date.

Moreover, Li Qiwei specifically instructed not to come to the dock to greet him, so as to avoid making a big show of himself.

So, Li Tingzhao had the unexpected surprise today.

He had already sent someone to call his second son, Li Zhongxing. As for his eldest son, Li Bokai, he could not come to Guangzhou because he was in the army and the discipline was strict and he could not take leave without reason. Under the eager eyes of Li Tingzhao and Ye Guizhen, the convoy finally stopped slowly.

Li Qiwei had just got out of the car when he suddenly felt his heart beating.

He looked at the two old men in front of the door, and a deep blood connection told him that they were his parents in this life.

Although the two of them lived a life of luxury and wore many jewels, they could not hide the white hair on their heads and the wrinkles on their foreheads.

When a wandering child returns home, all parents in the world feel so sorry for him!

The old couple immediately walked towards Li Qiwei.

Li Qiwei also truly and completely integrated into the identity of this world and knelt heavily in front of his parents.

"I am a bad child and have caused my parents to worry."

Ye Guizhen was already in tears. She helped Li Qiwei up and kept stroking his face, unable to utter a word.

A mother worries when her son is away from home, let alone Li Qiwei who is thousands of miles away.

"My son has lost weight. Is it because he doesn't eat well abroad?"

"I've asked the chef to start preparing all your favorite dishes."

Then she said to Li Tingzhao, "Master, look, has Wei'er grown a little taller?"

Li Tingzhao also showed his true feelings at this moment, with a trace of tears in his eyes, "Then he must have grown taller."

"I left home at the age of 17. It has been 6 years now. Wei'er is now a man of his own."

As he spoke, he patted Li Qiwei's shoulder heavily, his face showing unconcealable pride and joy.

Li Qiwei also looked firmly at his father, a tough man who had experienced many ups and downs.

It is said that the father-son relationship in China is the most complicated of all relationships in the world.

This contains too many principles of how to behave in society.

The first time he saw Li Tingzhao, Li Qiwei felt his infinite love for himself.

Although the other party did not cry and sob with joy like the mother, but between men, a look is often enough to tell everything.

"Father, mother, don't worry. I have never suffered any hardship abroad. Hong'er and Li San have taken good care of me."

“And I made a lot of friends.”

The old couple couldn't stop nodding and saying how great it was.

Then, Li Qiwei greeted his eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law one after another.

He was 17 when he left home, so he knew almost everyone.

A few little kids surrounded him and kept asking for gifts.

"Uncle, uncle, you came back from abroad. Did you bring anything fun or delicious?"

Li Qiwei looked at his nephews and nieces, and thought that ancient times were better, with many children and more blessings, and it was lively and lively.

He asked Li San to take out the gifts he had prepared for the children.

"You choose for yourselves, don't fight over it."

But the children were obedient. They got the things and ran home immediately, and everyone laughed.

At this time, Li Tingzhao said with a smile: "Come in quickly, we will welcome you, Wei'er."

"If you have anything to say, we'll talk about it later."

Suddenly, he saw Wang Luyao there, so he joked:
"Isn't this Lu Yao? The first thing you did after you came back was to come to my house instead of going back to your own home. I guess your father will make trouble for me."

With just one sentence, he successfully made everyone present laugh again and also diluted Mrs. Ye's excitement.

Wang Luyao blushed instantly and didn't know what to say, so he just hid in Li Qiwei's arms.

This made Li Qiwei's father and mother smile even more. It seemed that Wei'er had gained a lot from this trip abroad.

Then, surrounded by the crowd, Li Qiwei and Wang Luyao entered the house with their parents.

Hong'er and Li San followed behind them, and at the end were He Yujie, Xia Yuanzhao, Xu Qitai, and Hu Xizhong.

As for the coachmen, there were naturally people responsible for rewarding them.

Regarding Chapter 151, rest assured, this book will never be about cultivating immortality! I wrote an orthodox and serious scientific article. That was to avoid harmony and emphasize the tone of the book in advance.

I apologize to everyone. This is a bit toxic and I really didn’t think it through.

But fortunately, Chapter 151 has no impact on the subsequent plot.

Don’t worry, everyone. It is still an authentic academic article.
