Chapter 160: The Love of Parents

Li Xiao looked at her tears that were about to fall and hurriedly spoke to comfort her.

"Xiuzhi, don't cry. How could I not want to take you away? You said that in your heart I have long been your husband, but in my heart, haven't you also long been my wife? I'll go see my uncle and say goodbye to her for you."

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiuzhi did not let go of Li Xiao's sleeve, but spoke in disbelief.

"You're not lying to me, are you?"

Li Xiao spoke hurriedly.

"I will never lie to you. Wait for me."

Then he bowed to Jun Moye and Su Hanchu.

"Madam, please keep Xiuzhi company for me."

Su Hanchu smiled and spoke when he heard this.

"Okay, go ahead."

At this time, Mrs. Lin came hurriedly with a package and almost bumped into Li Xiao.

Li Xiao saluted hurriedly.

"aunt."

Mrs. Lin nodded slightly.

"I have something for you."

Li Xiao naturally understood that Lin's mother was probably worried that Xiuzhi would suffer, so she sent money to subsidize her.

"Aunt, I will definitely make sure Xiuzhi lives a good life in the future. You can keep your things."

Mrs. Lin didn't say much to him.

"Then I'm giving it to my daughter, not to you. It's no use for you to refuse."

Then he walked to Lin Xiuzhi's bed and stuffed the package into Lin Xiuzhi's arms.

"Zhizhi, this is what mother just took out. There are some banknotes and jewelry in it. Please keep it well. If you encounter any difficulties when you go out, find a way to send a letter to mother."

Li Xiao was about to say something when he saw this, but in the end, due to time constraints, he decided to go see Master Lin first.

How could Lin Xiuzhi bear to take her mother's things? She quickly declined.

"Mother, I can't take it. I've caused you so much worry, which is already unfilial. How can I take your things?"

Mrs. Lin stuffed the package into Lin Xiuzhi's arms.

"What nonsense are you talking about? What parent doesn't worry about their children? Take it quickly."

Then he looked at Lin Xiuzhi and spoke with tears in his eyes.

"Xiuzhi, tomorrow morning your father will announce to the public that you have died suddenly. From now on, you will no longer be allowed to appear in the Lin family. You must live a good life with Li Xiao.

His father is gone and his mother is not in good health. You should be more considerate to him and respect his mother as you would respect me. But don't be afraid. You still have your mother. If you are wronged, just find a way to send a letter back. Your mother will support you.

Lin Xiuzhi couldn't help but shed tears as she listened to her mother's advice one after another.

"Mother………"

Looking at such a touching scene, Su Hanchu couldn't help but have tears in his eyes.

At this time, in the study of Lin Mansion.

Li Xiao bowed to Master Lin.

"uncle."

Mr. Lin glanced at him indifferently, his tone filled with displeasure.

"You've already got what you wanted, so what are you doing here?"

Li Xiao looked at Master Lin kneeling solemnly on one knee.

"Li Xiao thanks uncle for your help. Uncle, I know I'm not worthy of Xiuzhi right now, but I will work hard to make her live a good life, and one day I will marry her in a grand ceremony."

After hearing this, Grandpa Lin finally looked at him straight in the eye.

“Anyone can say nice things, but it’s only true when you do it.”

Then his tone became slightly heavier.

"Li Xiao, our Xiuzhi has been pampered since she was a child. Our Lin family didn't have to take advantage of her misfortune to deny this marriage. It was just our parental concern, not wanting our daughter to suffer. However, Xiuzhi is deeply in love with you, and we as parents can only compromise for our child. You must not let Xiuzhi down in the future, otherwise don't blame me for disregarding our long-standing friendship with your father."

Li Xiao bowed solemnly upon hearing this.

"Li Xiao understands. Please rest assured, uncle. If I, Li Xiao, become ungrateful and betray Xiuzhi in the future, I will not have a good end. Father will not rest in peace in his grave."

Only then did Mr. Lin wave his hand.

"Okay, go ahead and don't let anyone see you."

As for Lin Xiuzhi, she had already changed into a simple set of clothes.

As a daughter, not being able to serve your parents is already unfilial, so naturally you cannot take your mother's things away.

The mother and daughter kept refusing.

Mrs. Lin was so anxious that she burst into tears.

"Xiuzhi, why are you so stubborn? How are you going to get by without any money? Listen to mother and take all this with you. If you don't take it with you, how can I not worry about you?"

Lin Xiuzhi felt even more guilty.

"Mother, I can't be with you anymore. I'm already feeling very sad. How can I take your things with me?"

In the end, it was Su Hanchu who spoke up to mediate between the two arguing people.

"Mrs. Lin, Xiuzhi, it's almost time to get ready to leave. Regarding all your things, why don't you listen to my advice? How about this? What about the banknotes and silver? Xiuzhi, you can take them with you. After all, when you get married, your mother will also give you a dowry.

Madam Lin, you can keep this jewelry for yourself. After all, Xiuzhi is no longer the same as when she was a young lady in the Lin family. Too gorgeous jewelry may not be a good thing for her. "

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Lin hurriedly opened the package and picked out the gorgeous jewelry inside with tears in her eyes.

"Okay, take these simple ones with you."

What else does Lin Xiuzhi want to say?

Su Hanchu began to persuade.

"Xiuzhi, your mother is worried that you won't be able to live well out there, so she wants to give you some more. Just keep it. When you have the chance, come back and honor Madam Lin. You're only away temporarily, not forever. Why are you acting like you're parting forever?"

At this time, Li Xiao also came back.

Jun Moye spoke up to remind him.

"You can go now. If you don't leave now, it will be bad if someone sees you when daybreak."

Li Xiao bowed to Mrs. Lin.

"Aunt, please don't worry, I will take good care of Xiuzhi."

Mrs. Lin wiped her tears.

"Li Xiao, your aunt has watched you grow up. Today, I will hand Xiuzhi over to you. You must treat her well in the future. If you want, you can call her mother!"

When Li Xiao heard this, a hint of shock flashed in his eyes, and then he hurriedly shouted.

"Mother."

Mrs. Lin responded with tears in her eyes.

"Hey, good boy."

Then he took out a jade pendant.

"This is the best jade pendant from my mother's dowry. I'm giving it to you today."

It seemed that he was worried that Li Xiao would refuse.

Mrs. Lin spoke again hurriedly.

"A gift from an elder cannot be refused."

Li Xiao took the jade pendant with both hands.

"Li Xiao thanks mother."

Finally, the few of them returned to Jun Mansion under the cover of night, under Mrs. Lin's tearful and reluctant gaze.

The sun rises early in June and July. When we arrived at Jun's house, it was already dawn.

Su Hanchu was worried that Li Xiao and Xiuzhi were feeling upset, so he tried his best to analyze the future path with them.

"Li Xiao, Xiuzhi, what are your plans for the future? Could you please tell us so we can give you some advice?"
