Li Yiyi rubbed her arm, feeling a chill run down her spine.
[Mom and Dad, I feel that Li Daya's absence is related to Old Lady Li and Li Laosi.]
[If you don't believe me, look at Li Laosi today, he looks radiant, nothing like the listless and weak man he was last night.]
Li Laoda and Jiang Yuting looked up and saw that their daughter was right.
Regardless, it was still a life. Li Laoda, upholding his conscience and bottom line, reminded Li Laoer and Zhao Dahua.
"Second brother, second brother's wife, do you want to go look for Daya? It's getting late, and I heard that the roads have been a bit unsafe lately."
The words were quite subtle, but Li Lao Er and Zhao Da Hua understood immediately. Their production team was good; they didn't have many good-for-nothings or old bachelors. The other production teams might not be so lucky...
The food in their hands no longer tasted good, and Li Lao Er and Zhao Da Hua immediately wanted to go look for her. After all, Li Daya was their own daughter.
"Alright, alright, you're a grown woman, don't you know the way? You have to find it for yourselves. I'm telling you, once is enough, and if it becomes a habit, you'll be responsible for it yourselves."
Old Mrs. Li glared fiercely at Li the eldest, then said something that seemed unintentional but was actually deliberate.
The people in the production team are most averse to developing bad habits.
"Dad, look how anxious Old Lady Li is."
Let me think... If Li Daya were taken away by her, where could she be taken?
Li Aihong's face flashed through her mind, and considering Li Laosi's situation, Li Yiyi thought it was indeed possible.
"Dad, do you think Li Daya might have been used by Old Lady Li to exchange for dowry money, and then the money might have gone to Li Laosi?"
It's quite possible that Old Lady Li has such a wide network of connections.
Li Yiyi's guess was believed by Boss Li.
Exchanging betrothal gifts is a rather poetic way of saying it, and it's about saving face for one's family. But it's not uncommon; many families are poor, or their sons or granddaughters are getting married.
They would then marry off their daughters to other families, using the money to supplement their household income.
"I'll go check it out later."
Regardless of what Li Laoda and Li Yiyi thought, Li Laoer and Zhao Dahua were persuaded by Li Laotai and resumed eating their meals peacefully.
"Dad, forget it. We've just run into two teammates who are as incompetent as pigs."
Perhaps I'm wrong.
After finishing their meal, Li Laoda tidied up the table and other items in the small kitchen next door, and then asked Li Yiyi to take out some fruit from her spatial storage.
Cut it into pieces, put it in a bowl, and bring it into the yard. The family of three can then enjoy a peaceful and happy time after dinner.
As it grew darker, and Li Daya still hadn't returned, Li Lao Er and Zhao Da Hua decided to go out and check on her.
His expression was unpleasant, and he muttered under his breath, cursing Li Daya for being so insensible.
Come home early after school. They've all worked a long day, and you still want to go see her? You've really become too obsessed with studying.
"Dad, should we go and help look for it?"
Li Yi asked hesitantly, her angelic side seemingly saying she might be wrong, while her demonic side seemed to be saying she was right.
Unable to find a perfect solution, we simply left the choice to Boss Li.
If you can't solve it, just ask your dad.
Go!
Li Laoda understood the conflict on his daughter's face. His daughter was still young and developing a kind heart; it was normal for her to be distressed by Li Daya's situation. But after this incident, she shouldn't get involved in such matters anymore.
Some people are not worth their effort.
Some people, you can save their bodies but not their souls.
Not everyone is as quick-witted as him. The happiest thing in Li Laoda's life was listening to his daughter and wife.
Why would he choose to take the wrong path if he could avoid some detours?
"good."
Two little hands reached out to Li Laoda, wanting a hug. Although Li Yiyi was already three years old, she looked no more than two.
A thin appearance can be very deceptive, especially when feigning illness.
They went out together, walking at a moderate pace. Compared to Li Lao Er and Zhao Da Hua, Li Yi Yi and Li Lao Da seemed to be taking a stroll.
[Dad, we haven't seen Li Lao Er and Zhao Da Hua.]
[Li Daya really...]
As the person drew closer, only Li Lao Er and Zhao Da Hua were visible; the other, even smaller figure, was nowhere to be seen.
"Second Uncle and Second Aunt, haven't you seen Cousin Li Ya?"
"No, I don't know where that brat ran off to."
It was less a reply and more a complaint. Zhao Dahua's already bad mood worsened after she couldn't see Li Daya.
Have you gone to the school to check?
"Look, what are you looking at? There's not a single person in the school, you idiot..."
The cold, hard gaze brought Zhao Dahua back to her senses. The Li Yiyi before her was not her daughter, Li Daya, and was not someone she could scold.
"Go to the school and ask the teacher."
If it weren't for wanting to show his daughter the darker side of human nature, Li Laoda wouldn't have wanted to get involved in this matter at all.
Li Daya isn't his daughter. Li Lao Er and Zhao Da Hua aren't worried, so why should he, an outsider, be worried? He tossed Li Yiyi around.
Old Li sighed sincerely, "My daughter still has a lot to learn."
Sometimes, even as we grow up, we still have the mindset of a child, lacking any sense of caution, seeing things too superficially and acting mostly based on our own preferences.
Alas, the road to raising a daughter is long and arduous.
"good."
When Li Laoda spoke, Li Lao'er and Zhao Dahua didn't dare to say no.
[Dad, you still have the authority.]
[One sentence silenced Li Lao Er and Zhao Da Hua so completely they didn't dare utter a sound.]
Li Yiyi's flattery pleased Boss Li greatly.
