“Father and Mother, remember this lesson and don’t do it again.” Li Xiaoran couldn’t bear to see her parents sad, so she walked out and said, “Granny Qiu, thank you for saving my parents yesterday! If you need our family’s help in the future, our family will definitely help you!”
When Granny Qiu heard Li Xiaoran’s words, she sized her up and then looked at Luo Cheng.
“I knew it. I was wondering what kind of girl caught your eye, especially a girl from the countryside. Now that we meet, I realized that I was narrow-minded.
You married a good wife!”
When Luo Cheng heard Granny Qiu’s words, he walked forward with a smile.
“Granny Qiu, let me introduce you. This is my wife, Li Xiaoran!”
With that, Luo Cheng looked at Li Xiaoran. “Wife, the mentor I found for Xiao Qing is her!” Li Xiaoran nodded and bowed to Granny Qiu.
“Greetings, Granny Qiu!”
Seeing this, Granny Qiu reached out to help Li Xiaoran up.
“Don’t stand on ceremony with me. We’ll be a family from now on! Xiao Qing is very to my liking, so I’ve already accepted this disciple!”
When Li Xiaoran heard this, she immediately looked at her sister in surprise.
Li Xiaoqing nodded at her sister to confirm this matter.
Li Xiaoran was overjoyed and quickly said with a smile, “Everyone, let’s go in and talk! Xiao Qing, is there anything to eat at home? We only ate a little this morning. I want to eat some rice now!”
“Let’s go home and eat! There’s a lot of food prepared at home. Let’s go over and eat together!” Luo Ziyang, who had been silent, invited them in.
In the end, the group went to Luo Cheng’s house.
Because Li Xiaoqing had been worried about her parents all night, she didn’t prepare anything to eat in the morning.
On Luo Ziyang’s side, a large pot of porridge had already been boiled in the kitchen. There were also several baskets of buns.
After walking in the mountains for so many days, Li Xiaoran immediately felt overjoyed when she was finally able to eat porridge and buns.
Even the pickles in the pickle jar were eaten with relish by Li Xiaoran.
After eating and drinking her fill, Li Xiaoqing sent her parents back to rest.
Li Xiaoran and Li Xiaoqing sent the two back together. Then, Li Xiaoran called Luo Cheng to the shop.
Previously, her parents had gone missing, so Li Xiaoqing was naturally not in the mood to open the shop.
Now that her parents were back, she naturally couldn’t neglect the business at the shop.
Li Xiaoran had slept well yesterday, so when she saw that her sister had not slept well because she was worried, she simply let her rest. She would go to the shop to cook knife-cut noodles instead.
It had been a while since she had cooked knife-cut noodles. Now that she was standing in front of the stove, she felt very at ease.
When Yuan Cheng and Mao Dao saw Li Xiaoran, they smiled and greeted her.
“Sister Ran, are you in charge of cooking noodles today?”
“That’s right! Xiao Qing didn’t sleep well yesterday, so I let her rest! It just so happens that I haven’t exercised in a long time, so I want to make noodles today!” Li Xiaoran replied with a smile.
“Sister Ran, you came back not long after you went out to play with Brother
Is it not fun outside?” Mao Dao thought of something and asked.
“It’s very fun outside, but I’ve been away from home for too long and missed home, so I came back early!” Li Xiaoran joked.
“That’s how it is with a family!” Yuan Cheng said with a smile.
As they spoke, customers arrived, so the three of them quickly got busy.
Because Luo Ziyang had something to report to Luo Cheng about, Zi Cheng and Zi Zheng followed Li Xiaoran to protect her and take care of the shop.
Business was especially good today. Many people wanted to eat knife-cut noodles as soon as they arrived, so Li Xiaoran was busy all morning.
Fortunately, Zi Cheng and Zi Zheng were around, so everything was going smoothly.
When there was finally free time, Wen Lu came looking for her.
“Xiaoran, you and Brother Luo Cheng came back at the right time. Our house is almost built and we’ll be moving in in a few days. When the time comes, we want to set up a housewarming banquet. Xiaoran and Brother Luo Cheng, you two must come!”
“That’s a good thing. When are you planning to move in? When will you get married?” Li Xiaoran quickly asked when she heard that this was a joyous occasion.
“We’ll move in three days. Then, on the fifth day, we’ll hold a wedding!” Wen Lu told Li Xiaoran the date.
After Li Xiaoran noted it down, she thought of something and asked, “How are you doing here? Those people didn’t have any designs on you again, right?”
“Fortunately, we live in the shop. Otherwise, something really would have happened. I won’t hide it from you. I really didn’t expect my aunt’s family to be so shameless!” Wen Lu’s face was filled with anger when she mentioned this. “Fortunately, Kang Zheng has some martial arts skills and everyone in the shop helped us. Otherwise, I would have been forcefully taken away by those shameless people!”
“When did this happen?” Li Xiaoran was a little angry when she heard this.
They had already come to her shop to s.n.a.t.c.h people. They didn’t take her and Luo Cheng seriously at all!
“Three days ago, when Granny Qiu was also here. To be honest, it’s all thanks to Granny Qiu that we didn’t get taken away! I don’t know where those people got the powder from. If it weren’t for Granny Qiu having the antidote, all of us would have been at their mercy! ” Wen Lu gritted her teeth and said.
At this moment, Wen Lu didn’t hide anything and told Li Xiaoran what had happened in detail.
It turned out that when the shop was about to close three days ago, a group of people broke in and scattered powder on a group of people.
Coincidentally, Granny Qiu was beside Li Xiaoqing. She protected Li Xiaoqing and fed her an antidote pill.
After that, Granny Qiu and Li Xiaoqing chased into the courtyard and saw that the group of people was about to run out with Wen Lu.
Everyone wanted to stop them, but their bodies felt weak and they couldn’t use any strength.
In the end, it was Granny Qiu who subdued those people and handed the antidote pill to Li Xiaoqing so that she could give it to everyone.
That was why Wen Lu wasn’t taken away by those people.
“Then how did you guys deal with those people?” Li Xiaoran had a guess, but she still asked.
Wen Lu smiled bitterly when she heard this.
“What else can we do? Originally, Granny Qiu wanted to send them to the government office, but my aunt begged me to let them off. If this matter reaches the authorities’ ears, those people will definitely be punished. At that time, my aunt’s in-laws will be humiliated, and my cousin definitely won’t be able to get a wife in the future.. Therefore, I could only let this matter go!”
