“Father!” Li Xiaoran was touched. When she called out to him, tears flowed down her face.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

When Li Shun saw Li Xiaoran crying, he was shocked. He reached out clumsily to wipe the tears off his daughter’s face, but he remembered that his hands were covered in calluses, so he went to look for a handkerchief.

Unexpectedly, the handkerchief that was usually in his wallet wasn’t there.

Seeing that her man was so anxious, Zhao Xiu quickly took out a handkerchief and walked over to wipe the tears off Li Xiaoran’s face.

“Silly girl, your father didn’t do this to make you cry, but to make you smile!

What other people’s children have, our children should have too. We had limited capabilities in the past, but we want you girls to be happy.”

Li Xiaoran nodded with tears in her eyes and said, “Thank you, Father,

Mother! ”

Zhao Xiu hugged Li Xiaoran and touched her head.

“Alright, you’re a big girl! If you continue crying, Xiao Qing and Changsheng will laugh at you!”

Li Xiaoran quickly stopped crying and wiped her tears with a handkerchief.

Seeing that Li Xiaoran was no longer crying, Li Xiaoqing and Changsheng also went to look at the surrounding furniture.

“Father, when I get married in the future, you have to make such furniture for me too!” Li Xiaoqing suddenly said.

“Alright, I’ll definitely make a set of furniture for you as your dowry! When the time comes, don’t despise my poor carpentry skills!” Li Shun said with a smile.

“I won’t despise it. My father’s culinary skills are the best!” Li Xiaoqing said with certainty, “When I see such a good dowry, I’ll definitely laugh in surprise. I won’t cry like my sister!”

“You brat, why are you snubbing me?!” Li Xiaoran scolded with a smile.

Everyone laughed.

After seeing the dowry, everyone left the room together.

Li Xiaoran recalled what Old Madam Jin had said previously and decided to have a good talk with her parents.

However, everyone was tired today. She would wait until tomorrow!

That night, everyone in the Luo family’s house slept well.

After Luo Cheng saw that person’s true colors, he no longer had any qualms, so he slept very peacefully.

With a younger brother, Luo Ziyang felt a sense of responsibility.

As for Changsheng, after he began a new life, he felt more at ease.

After Li Shun and Zhao Xiu finally prepared a decent dowry for their daughter, they felt less burdened. Therefore, the couple felt relieved and fell asleep with peace of mind.

As for Li Xiaoqing, because her life was so blissful, she slept very peacefully as well.

In contrast to Li Xiaoran’s family, Li Yan wasn’t sleeping well.

The reason was that Pei Xuanxin was going to the capital the day after tomorrow.

Originally, he should have gone to the capital two months in advance. After all, there would be no place to stay if he arrived too late.

However, Qi Fei and Ai Mingze, who had been studying with Pei Xuanxin, had already rented a house near the Gong Courtyard in the capital through their marital connections.

It was also for this reason that Pei Xuanxin wasn’t in a hurry to go to the

capital. Instead, he chose to follow Qi Fei and Ai Mingze.

Li Yan had always wanted to follow Pei Xuanxin to the capital to broaden her horizons. However, there was a mother-in-law in this family who wasn’t in good health, so she could only reluctantly watch Pei Xuanxin pack his things. Pei Xuanxin didn’t bring her to the capital.

At the thought that Pei Xuanxin, Qi Fei, and Ai Mingze had left with the servants and the delicious food, Li Yan felt upset.

As the saying went, it was easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but difficult to go from extravagant to frugal.

She was already used to having someone to cook and serve her. How could Li Yan be willing to be abandoned here? She couldn’t eat or sleep well and had to do so many things all on her own. She also had to take care of an old woman who wasn’t in good health.

Li Yan, who was indignant, lay on the bed as she tossed and turned. In the end, she decided to think of a way to follow Pei Xuanxin to the capital.

The next day, Li Yan took the opportunity to find Qi Fei.

“Young Master Qi, my husband is very willing to listen to me. Why don’t you bring me to the capital?! With me around, it will be much more convenient for you to do things.”

When Qi Fei heard Li Yan’s words, he thought of something and pondered.

“Alright, leave this to me! It’s just leaving a maid to take care of Brother Pei’s mother. To me, it’s simple! However, Li Yan, you’d better remember what you said. When we need Brother Pei to do something, you have to persuade him to cooperate with us!” In the end, Qi Fei said.

“Young Master Qi, don’t worry! I’ll definitely settle this for you!” Li Yan promised.

At noon, Qi Fei thought of something and said, “Brother Pei, you’re someone who does big things, so you should bring the people around you out to see the world. You have to know that the people you’ll interact with in the future will be different from the people you’ll interact with now, so you have to prepare in advance!”

Pei Xuanxin frowned when he heard Qi Fei’s words.

“But my mother really can’t be on her own. I can feel more at ease if my wife stays behind to take care of her!”

“That’s simple to take care of! I’ll leave a maid and an old woman home to take care of your mother. Why don’t you bring her to the capital?! Think about it, after you go to the capital, you need someone to take care of everything. You just have to focus on your studies. How good is that?! If you get sick but have no one to take care of you, how miserable will you be?!” Ai Mingze persuaded.

Pei Xuanxin hesitated but still couldn’t make up his mind.

“Son, let your wife follow you! I have someone to take care of me at home. If anything happens to you, how can I live?! Let her follow you to the capital and take good care of you! You’re a man. How can you be as attentive as a woman?!” When Mrs. Pei heard this, she simply walked out and persuaded Pei Xuanxin.

Her health was much better now. She could walk, do chores, and take care of herself.

In fact, she didn’t need any maids to take care of her.

When Pei Xuanxin heard his mother’s words, he finally nodded and agreed.

However, Pei Xuanxin didn’t completely trust the people Qi Fei had arranged. He even asked the neighbors to come over every day to help take care of his mother.

Of course, Pei Xuanxin had also promised them compensation.

As long as his mother was fine when he returned, he would give them a tael of silver as a thank-you gift.

After everything was arranged, Pei Xuanxin was relieved and let Li Yan pack up.

In fact, with Qi Fei and Ai Mingze taking care of them along the way, Li Yan and Pei Xuanxin really didn’t need to bring that many things..
