Qi An and Qi Wan's arrival was warmly welcomed by the entire Li family.
Li Qingtong and Li Qingjun became like little shadows, following Qi Wan wherever she went.
Qi Wan felt extremely sorry for the baby and entrusted the infant to her sisters-in-law, patiently comforting the two older children.
When I heard Li Xuchang tell me about Li Qingtong getting into a fight because someone said he didn't have a mother, my heart felt like it was soaking in vinegar, both sour and swollen.
Even when they went to sleep at night, neither of them wanted Qi Wan to leave.
Qi Wan coaxed the two of them to sleep before she had time to go see Qi Qingpeng.
"Wan'er, don't you even look at me?"
Seeing that Qi Wan was busy coaxing this person and ignoring him, Li Xuchang couldn't help but feel a little jealous.
"You jealous person, tell me properly about what's going on here?"
"Hold me while you speak."
Li Xuchang acted coquettishly, his eyes filled with a kind of aggressive intensity, causing Qi Wan to blush with embarrassment.
"We haven't remarried yet."
I will record it tomorrow.
Li Xuchang hugged Qi Wan tightly. As the saying goes, absence makes the heart grow fonder. They hadn't seen each other for so long, and Li Xuchang felt his whole body screaming with longing.
The next morning, Li Qingtong and Li Qingjun were looking for their mother, and only felt at ease when they saw Qi Wan.
"Mom didn't leave. Little Five thought yesterday was a dream!"
Upon seeing Qi Wan, Li Qingtong blurted out a sentence.
Qi Wan's heart skipped a beat. They had indeed been separated for too long, and under such circumstances, it was no wonder they felt insecure.
The three families of five were reunited, and the others gave them space and did not disturb them.
Li Xuming took Qi An to visit the workshop.
Yesterday, Li Xuming told Qi An about some things at the workshop. Qi An thought that after resting, he would also take a batch of goods back with him. Today, he went to the workshop with Li Xuming.
The fourth family also brought gifts today to formally express their gratitude to Qi Wan.
Qi Wan declined, citing her status as a junior.
Therefore, the fourth wife's family paid their respects to Pan Jinhua, since Qi Wan was her daughter-in-law and Li Furong and Li Mudan were her daughters.
"Sister-in-law, those two siblings are only able to come here because of you."
Li Yue, Li Yin, kowtow three times to your great-aunt.
Li Yue and Li Yin are now the grandchildren of Li Shida and Yuan Shi, and should call Pan Jinhua their great-aunt.
As soon as Li Shida finished speaking, Li Yue and Li Yin began to respectfully kowtow to Pan Jinhua.
Not only did the two of them kowtow, but Li Xushen and his wife also kowtowed together.
Pan Jinhua knew she couldn't stop them, so she didn't. She waited until they finished kowtowing before calling out.
"Cao'er...sigh, at least you have two children by your side now, so you must take good care of yourselves."
Pan Jinhua was referring to Yuan Shi, who had fallen ill and was now increasingly thin and listless, unlike her former energetic self.
“Sister-in-law is right. I’m supporting her now, so I should at least see A-Yue get married and A-Yin get married.”
“Shen’er is now more capable in doing things, and should set a good example for her nephews and nieces.”
“Auntie, they are not nephews, they are my nephews.”
"Yes, yes, yes, we must remember this."
Pan Jinhua reminded herself that the two children clearly no longer wanted any connection with the Wu family and were already members of the Li family.
Li Yue and Li Yin settled down peacefully in the fourth house.
They probably didn't expect that they would be accepted by the Li family so quickly.
Gradually, he truly began to consider himself a member of the Li family.
Li Shida and Lady Yuan treated them very well, though they also felt a bit guilty.
Li Xushen was initially worried that Xiao Yuanshi would be jealous, so he tried to subtly probe her.
Xiao Yuanshi saw right through it.
"If you think of me like that, you are underestimating me. Although I am not very generous, I am a reasonable person."
Not to mention that Cao'er and I are cousins who grew up together and have a deep sisterly bond; furthermore, as her sister-in-law and your wife, if you can't even tolerate two children who have lost their parents, you are truly inhuman.
Don't worry, my future and the children's future depend on you. It's perfectly legitimate for parents to give them some money.
Besides, Li Yue is getting older, and he'll be able to help you in a year or two. You're the only one in our family who can take care of things right now, and our child is too young. I'll feel at ease having Yue Yue help you.
However, I've made it clear to you that while I'm good to them, I won't neglect my own children.
Upon hearing these words, Li Xushen looked at Xiao Yuanshi with new respect.
Seeing the shocked look in her husband's eyes, Xiao Yuan felt smug.
These words weren't entirely her own thoughts; many were things Yuan Shi had confided in her privately.
Seeing that Li Xushen was even more respectful towards her, Xiao Yuanshi took her mother-in-law's words to heart.
Qi An stayed for a few days and was even taken to wander around the rice fields.
The crops are almost ripe, and the county magistrate sends letters every two days to inquire about them. It wouldn't hurt to tell Qi'an in advance.
After all, Qi An had been away for several months and had safely delivered his sister to her family. He was also homesick and was making preparations for leaving.
The Li family thought it would be good to reassure Qi An once again.
Qi An was indeed very excited when he found out. If it weren't for the fact that this matter would take another month or two to resolve, Qi An would have insisted on witnessing it before returning.
Qi An left Shuxia Village one morning, carrying the letter Qi Wan had given to her parents, and then left with the escort agency, carrying the goods purchased at the workshop.
Life is like a journey, and I am but a traveler.
Life is full of partings, and perhaps this parting will never be the last. Therefore, Qi An chose to leave early to avoid facing separation.
Separated by a door, Qi Wan leaned against Li Xuchang's chest, tears streaming down her face. In this life, the mountains and roads are far apart, and she didn't know if she would ever have the chance to meet again.
"Wan'er, your brother-in-law knows you'll be sad, that's why he doesn't want you to see him off. Don't cry. If there's a chance, I'll definitely take you back to Nanze."
"good."
The weather is scorching hot, and the wind carries the fragrance of rice paddies.
Because of Lin Pei's emphasis, the Li family shifted their focus entirely to the crops.
The moment the control over the workshop was relaxed, a major disaster ensued!
Liao Shengnan's house is at the entrance of the village, and there are basically no people there at night.
One night, she went out to relieve herself and suddenly saw several people acting suspiciously at the entrance of the village.
She became wary and squatted down to watch for a while.
Before she could figure out what was going on, she saw the group of people fighting each other.
She was still muttering words like "sour physalis" and "silver." She immediately thought of the workshop and rushed to her parents' room to wake them up.
They were lucky; those guys thought it was the middle of the night and no one was around, so they got carried away with their fighting.
They moved quickly, grabbing their tools and rushing forward.
Taking advantage of their unpreparedness and with their tools, the three men grabbed two of them at once, while the remaining one mounted a horse and fled at top speed.
Liao Shengnan already worked in the workshop, and upon a glance, she recognized the two people she had caught.
At this moment, Liao Shengnan's mother also called the villagers over, and the group greeted them warmly.
These two weren't exactly tough nuts to crack, and they confessed very quickly.
