754 I owe you a favor
“Don’t cry, don’t cry!” Mrs. Li bent down and picked Li Shan up, then pulled her to the side and sat down. Shan ‘er, this has nothing to do with you. It was a matter between the elders. Can you just pretend that you don’t know about this in the future? Don’t feel so burdened.”
Li Shan shook her head,”second aunt, brother, you won’t do anything to my mother, right?” You’ll let her eat vegetarian and pray in the temple Hall in peace, right?”
Her expression was too real and not fake at all. This sad inquiry made people feel bad.
No one suspected her, because Li Shan was only an eleven-year-old girl. Her mother had done something bad, and she couldn’t do anything about it, but she couldn’t be cruel and not care.
Such a complicated matter would put many adults in a dilemma, let alone children.
Mrs. Li, her son, as well as Duke Rong and his wife, all sympathized with Li Shan.
Only Gu shouxin and Cai Xiaolian looked at Li Shan coldly. The two of them had not forgotten what Gu Xin had said about the fall from the second floor. The two of them felt that it was strange.
Although they knew that Mrs. Li wanted to harm Mrs. Li and her son, and that the incident was probably her doing, the couple could not feel any sympathy for Li Shan.
Perhaps they were used to only caring about their own daughter and didn’t like to worry about other people’s children!
“That’s right. Shan ‘er, don’t worry. In the past, first aunt also ate vegetarian and chanted in the temple Hall. Now, other than not allowing her to enter and leave as she pleased, there was no difference from before. Shan ‘er, you can still accompany her and visit her. This person should be punished for his mistakes, regardless of his age.” Li Muyan said.
“I thank brother and second Shen on behalf of mother. I understand. Second aunt has taught us since we were young that we must do things with a conscience. Mother has done wrong and should be punished. Second aunt, brother, if you need me in the future, just let me know. I will definitely do my best to atone for mother’s sins!” Li Shan wiped her tears and said sincerely.
“You little girl, could it be that without this matter, your second aunt and I would not be able to support you?” Li Muyan asked with a smile.
“No, no, I didn’t,” Li Shan was so scared that she shook her head and waved her hands, ” I am, I am Yingluo!
“Alright, mu Yan. Don’t tease this child. What a pitiful child. His father is no longer around and his mother is like this. Mu Yan, you have to treat her like your own sister in the future, understand?” Madam Xie spoke up for Li Shan.
She really liked Li Shan too much. In her imagination, her daughter was just like Li Shan.
She was soft, obedient, and adorable.
When she was a child without her daughter, she always wanted to be good to the little girls when she saw them.
“Alright, grandmother! I know. Even if you didn’t say it, I would still treat them as biological sisters! If you don’t believe me, you can ask eldest sister and third sister.” Li Muyan said with a smile.
“Alright, alright, let’s not talk about this anymore. I’ll have to trouble shouxin and little Lian for today’s matter. You’ve heard of our ident.i.ties just now, so I’ll make a promise here. Our Duke Rong’s mansion owes you and your wife a favor. If there’s anything we can help with in the future, just say it!” Duke Rong looked at Gu shouxin and said.
“You’re too polite, High Duke!” Gu shouxin cupped his hands. He didn’t say that he wanted this favor, nor did he say that he didn’t want it.
Such an att.i.tude made Duke Rong think highly of him.
shouxin, Xiao Lian, I think Muyan and niannian are a good match. They are about the same age. Why don’t you take a look? ” Madam Xie suddenly mentioned li Muyan and Gu Nian, but she was interrupted by Mrs. Li.
“Mother, don’t make things difficult for little Lian and second Gu. The children in their family made their own decisions. My family as well.” mrs. li immediately knew what her mother was going to say.
