When Su Xiaonuan and Xiao Moran returned, the gate to the courtyard was open, and Mr. Li's delivery truck was parked inside.

It's Mr. Li delivering groceries to my home.

Xiao Moran parked the car, and the two of them got out one on each side and walked towards the delivery vehicle. They craned their necks to look inside, but there was no one in the driver's seat.

As they walked further in, they encountered Mr. Li, who had just finished delivering goods and was walking out empty-handed, with Su Ming following behind him.

Su Ming came out to see Master Li off and closed the big iron gate as he did so.

"Ah, Master Li, what happened to your face?" Su Xiaonuan asked, noticing the injuries all over his face and the bruises around his eyes.

"..." Master Li looked at Su Xiaonuan, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back.

"Did they get into a fight with their neighbors?" Xiao Moran assumed they had gotten into a fight while living in a tenement. "There are a lot of people in the compound. You have to get along well with your neighbors. They say a close neighbor is worse than a distant relative."

Xiao Moran thought to himself, his parents-in-law had built up so many good relationships in the tenement, he mustn't let Xie Xiuhua and this man ruin them. Back then, he and his mother didn't really agree with them moving there. Even giving up the public rental housing would be better than giving it to those ignorant people.

It's possible that Xie Xiuhua and Lan Guangxue had an affair, which Zhang Yulan and her son are very sensitive about.

Su Ming also asked Master Li, but he didn't say anything.

"It wasn't a fight with the neighbor," Mr. Li said quietly.

"Who did you fight like that with?" Xiao Moran asked.

"It's that old bastard surnamed Lan. He came looking for Xiuhua and insisted that she move in with him. He even said he's bought a better house now." Master Li clenched his fists in anger.

"What did Xie Xiuhua say?" Su Xiaonuan asked.

"She refused, and that old bastard humiliated her in front of everyone, even saying that he and Xiuhua had been having that kind of relationship for a long time." Master Li gritted his teeth. "That shameless old man, I'll beat him up every time I see him. He has no self-respect at all. Doesn't he know his own age? He wants Xiuhua to go with him? Dream on."

"So what are you planning to do?" Su Xiaonuan asked. "You two are already together, are you just going to leave it at that? Don't you want to give Xiuhua a proper status?"

Xiao Nuan no longer calls Xie Xiuhua "sister-in-law," she has long since changed her address to "Sister Xiuhua."

“No, we plan to get married,” Mr. Li said firmly. “Then we’ll bring our children to live in the city. I’ve inquired at schools in the suburbs, and they will accept our children.”

“Okay, I support you,” Xiao Nuan said. “Don’t hesitate to ask if you need any help.”

"Thank you, boss!" Master Li said sincerely. "You've helped us so much. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't know what to do now. Now that we've brought the children to live with us, we have fewer worries and will work even harder for you."

"So, do you need to take leave?" Su Xiaonuan asked understandingly. "How about I give you both a week off to go back and take care of things at home, and then pick up the kids. If you can't handle the school transfer, I can help you."

"That's wonderful." Master Li bowed slightly to her. "Don't bother with the transfer, ma'am. Schools in the suburbs are easier to get into than those in the city. I've already made arrangements."

"Okay, let's do it your way." Su Xiaonuan took out two hundred yuan from her bag and stuffed it into Mr. Li's hand. "Take it, consider it a red envelope from me."

"Boss lady, I can't accept your red envelope. We're not having a wedding, just getting a marriage certificate is enough," Mr. Li said, pushing it away.

"It's alright, take it." Su Xiaonuan pushed it back again. "The children have all been brought here, and they'll need money a lot in the future, so please accept it; it's just a small token of my appreciation."

"This is really too much..." Mr. Li held the money, unsure whether to accept it or not. Two hundred yuan was not a small amount; it was a huge sum for them. Even at weddings, the red envelopes were usually 5 or 10 yuan; no one would give such a large red envelope.

“Master Li, please accept this,” Xiao Moran said. “Since the children have come to the provincial capital, we need to buy them some nice clothes. Otherwise, they will be bullied at school. Consider this money as money to buy clothes for the children.”

Master Li put the money in his bag without saying a word. He bowed to Xiao Moran and Su Xiaonuan and left. He was an honest man who was not good with words and could not say anything nice. He thought to himself that he could only repay the family's kindness with practical actions in the future.

“That old scoundrel from the Lan family is so hateful. He beat a perfectly healthy person up like this. Xiao Nuan, you have to be careful, or he might retaliate against you,” Su Ming said worriedly. “He’s probably made enough money by now and bought a house in secret. It seems that this nouveau riche will be squeezed dry by this family sooner or later.”

"I was worried he wouldn't come. If he does, it'll be perfect for avenging Master Li." Xiao Nuan stretched her muscles; it had been a long time since she'd hit anyone, and she was really itching to do it.

"You can't be reckless," Xiao Moran warned her. "We're getting married next week, so don't get hurt. Otherwise, you won't be able to wear that beautiful wedding dress. Also, you gave Xie Jihua and Master Li their leave, but you're not allowed to cover for them. I'll get two people from the factory to help, understand?"

After saying that, he looked at her with doting eyes.

Su Ming quickly said, "I'll go in and help pack up the ingredients that just arrived."

"I've already said that someone booked the hotel before us. Are we still going to have our wedding on that day?"

"Of course we should," Xiao Moran said domineeringly. "Let them change the date."

"Ha, what a boastful tone," Su Xiaonuan analyzed. "The hotel might be difficult to communicate with. After all, they're richer than us. Not only do they not accept gifts from relatives and friends, but they also give them red envelopes in return. They're eating and staying at a big hotel. That's really extravagant. I wonder who's so rich?"

“That rich man is your man.” He stared intently at her. He had originally planned to keep it a secret, but she was still bothered by it, so he had no choice but to tell her. “Don’t worry, no one will compete with us. From beginning to end, it’s just my wedding with you. If I say it’s a grand wedding, then it’s a grand wedding.”

"You published that news in the newspaper too?" Her heart was pounding with joy. She never imagined that the lucky woman everyone was talking about was herself. "And the idea of ​​giving back 13.14 yuan in red envelopes to relatives and friends was also yours?"

"Mm." Xiao Moran nodded.

How do you know the meaning of the numbers 1314?

“Didn’t you tell Moxi a story?” Xiao Moran said. “This set of numbers is in the story of one lifetime and one love. I heard Moxi tell that love story. It was very touching. So, I want to love you for one lifetime and one love. No, for three lifetimes and three love.”

You know about Three Lives Three Worlds?

"Yes, I also know the story of Three Lives Three Worlds, which is the love between the goddess Bai Qian and the emperor Ye Hua. It's really touching. Xiao Nuan, I also want to love you for three lifetimes, but I won't let you suffer as much as the goddess Bai Qian, and I won't let you go through tribulations. I just want you to be happy and joyful."

Xiao Nuan muttered to herself, "What nonsense is this? Is Ye Hua the Emperor?"

Xiao Moran wanted to find out about Jiang Yi, so he talked to Mo Xi in private. He asked Mo Xi to tell him any stories that Mo Xi had told Jiang Yi, which is why he knew so much about him.
