The fatty meat was placed on Wang Gang's side, while the lean meat was on Li Laoda's side, within easy reach of Li Yiyi.
The fatty meat they ordered was half lean meat; let's feed her the lean meat!
Old Mrs. Li's good intentions went unnoticed by Old Mrs. Li; instead, he gave her a grateful look, knowing that his wife and daughter preferred lean meat.
The old lady Li, who was being watched, focused her gaze on Wang Gang, wanting to ascertain his thoughts.
“Wang Gang, you know my Ai Hong’s temperament. She’s good in every way, except that she’s a little too kind.”
As soon as the words were spoken, everyone except Li Aihong looked at Old Lady Li.
Be kinder, are you seeing things through eighteen layers of filters?
Even a peddler selling melons wouldn't go this far.
That's not kindness, that's a saintly figure on vacation, tinged with naivety.
No matter how much he complained, no one bothered him. Even more bizarrely, Wang Gang nodded emphatically, indicating his agreement.
"Mother, I know everything. I just love Ai Hong's kindness."
"Click"
Zhao Dahua was a little unsteady on her feet, and the chair shifted back several times.
"Wang Gang, you're right, my sister is just kind."
Zhao Dahua chuckled and tried to steady herself on her stool, but those in the know understood; they hadn't expected Wang Gang's fondness to be so astonishing.
"Second sister-in-law is right."
Wang Gang glanced shyly at Li Aihong, a blush creeping onto his skin, which was even yellower than wheat.
At this moment, Li Aihong found Wang Gang exceptionally pleasing to the eye. She felt that she had met someone who understood her, someone who understood her even better than Sun Jiang.
"Thank you for understanding me, sir."
Shyly, they both lowered their heads; in an instant, they both looked down.
An eerie silence fell over the scene; Li Yi even forgot to eat.
[In matters of the heart, like a turtle eyeing a green bean, Wang Gang and Li Aihong hit it off.]
[Wait, who was that person who said they were waiting for Sun Jiang last night?]
[Suddenly, someone said "Boss," and anyone who didn't know better would think Sun Jiang had returned.]
The world is developing so fast!
"Have you two hit it off?"
A mouthful of rice was stuffed into Li Yi's mouth, fed by Boss Li. Unbeknownst to him, Li Yi blurted out his innermost thoughts, making him a thorn in everyone's side.
Fearing that Li Yiyi's words would ruin Li Aihong and Wang Gang's marriage,
"What are you saying, child? I'm already married to the master, what's this talk about whether we're compatible or not?"
A shy blush crept across Li Aihong's face as she looked at Wang Gang, her eyes filled with tenderness, as if she had loved him for countless lifetimes.
"Honey, you're right that I'm being too harsh."
"Yes, yes, Ai Hong is right."
Wang Gang responded by even comforting Li Aihong.
"Aihong, don't be angry. The child is still young and is just talking nonsense."
"Honey, I'm not angry, I'm just afraid you'll be angry."
"Aihong, I'm not angry. As long as you're not angry, I won't be angry."
"Master,..."
...
The two began to talk about their feelings as if no one else was around, leaving everyone else with mixed feelings.
"Dad, I feel like throwing up."
With a pained expression, Li Yiyi desperately wanted to leave the main room.
[Father, I am guilty, and I will ask God to punish me myself, instead of making me suffer inhuman torture here.]
I was wrong. I even felt sorry for Li Aihong earlier, thinking she hadn't done anything wrong.
Now, I wholeheartedly agree with Grandma Li's decision.
Gently stroking Li Yiyi's little head, Li Laoda didn't immediately carry Li Yiyi out. Of course he could have carried her, but why would he?
He needs to show his daughter what love looks like. Only through deep and direct experience will she develop a sense of awe towards love, and then he can support her for the rest of her life.
With a flash of insight, Boss Li realized that everything had been carefully considered.
The tormenting Li Aihong and Wang Gang were finally leaving. Old Mrs. Li and Old Mr. Li looked at Wang Gang expectantly.
Dowry, where is the dowry?
"Father and Mother, I'm taking Aihong with me. Don't worry, I will take good care of her from now on and I won't let her suffer any grievances."
With a polite smile on her face, Old Lady Li didn't care about Li Aihong at all; what she was worried about was where the bride price would come from.
"Wang Gang, it's good that you have this intention."
She gave a few perfunctory words and didn't even want to look at Li Aihong. If she could, she would rather have given birth to Jiang Yuting instead.
Jiang Yuting: It's a bit presumptuous of me, but I hope you have some sense of proportion regarding your pregnancy.
"Father and Mother, you've worked so hard raising Ai Hong. This is a small token of my appreciation."
Old Mrs. Li knew what was wrapped in the handkerchief, and her face lit up with a radiant smile. Before she could take it, Li Aihong snatched it away, leaving her stiff hand frozen in mid-air.
[So bustling and vibrant, it's almost unbelievable! Even Grandma Li probably didn't expect this!]
"Go on, go on, take your money and get out of here quickly."
"Mother, how could you take my money? Did you raise me just for money? I don't believe it, you must be lying to me, right? I don't believe our mother-daughter relationship is fake?"
Old Mrs. Li really wanted to say yes, but in front of Wang Gang, she wanted to curse, but she couldn't utter a sound.
That stupid daughter of hers, she was definitely born to bring her bad luck.
"Aihong, how could you think like that?"
An even louder sound came from Wang Gang. Unable to figure out why, everyone opened their eyes wide and stared intently.
"The head of the household."
Li Aihong didn't understand, and her confused expression was the same as Li Yiyi's.
“Aihong, I always thought you were a kind woman. I’ve believed that ever since you started helping me, but you’ve disappointed me so much.”
