Chapter 399 The Power Outage (1/2)



Upon hearing this, Yu Yuan subconsciously covered Li Guangzong's mouth.

She looked back at the door and confirmed that Li Mengdi didn't hear any noise in the living room, then she breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing her like this, Li Guangzong's face was full of dissatisfaction and anger. He frowned and said, "Mom, what's with that expression? ... Are you still afraid of that money-loser?!"

"She already dared to hit me today, who knows what else she will do! I don't want her to stay in my house anymore! This is my house, and my name is on the property certificate! Mom, you must help me kick her out!"

After Li Guangzong finished speaking, he seemed to be injured, and suddenly gasped in pain and started coughing again: "Cough cough——"

Seeing this, Yu Yuan looked at Li Guangzong with a distressed look on her face. While helping him calm down, she whispered to him, "Okay, okay, son, don't be angry first. Listen to me..."

Yu Yuan lowered her voice and whispered into Li Guangzong's ear: "...your aunt Ying told me before that her neighbor is looking for a wife for her son and is willing to pay a high price for the bride price..."

"Your aunt Ying showed them your sister's photo. They've already fallen in love with her and said they'll marry your sister off in a few days..."

Some time ago, Yu Yingying took the initiative to contact Yu Yuan. She said that her neighbor No. 1506 was a wealthy man named Song. He used to be a big boss who ran a company and lived in a villa.

It's just that the Song family's eldest son was injured in an accident and is now unable to live.

Therefore, the Song family wanted to find a daughter-in-law. As long as she was a good person and could accept that their son was "handicapped", they would not be picky about other conditions and were willing to pay a high price for the bride price!

When Yu Yingying learned about this, the first person she thought of was her niece Li Mengdi.

Li Mengdi graduated from a prestigious university and is a doctor. Although she is only an intern during a special period, her job is still decent.

So Yu Yingying found Yu Yuan and Li Minhong and told them about this.

When Yu Yuan and Li Minhong learned that they could get a large sum of money as a betrothal gift, they immediately agreed.

With Yu Yingying acting as a matchmaker, the two families quickly finalized the marriage, and only Li Mengdi, the "mother-in-law", was kept in the dark.

Yu Yuan comforted Li Guangzong in her arms, her eyes full of longing for the betrothal gift. She whispered in Li Guangzong's ear: "As long as your sister marries the son of the Song family, Mom can get a large sum of money! With this money, Mom can find a wife for you in the future..."

Li Guangzong snorted upon hearing this, curled his lips, and said with some disdain: "I don't want a wife! Grandma said that women are all money-losing goods! I don't want one!"

Yu Yuan smiled when she heard this. She touched Li Guangzong's head, sighed, and said, "Silly son, how can a man not want a wife? Now that your father is dead, only the two of us are left to depend on each other. You must marry a wife to continue the Li family's lineage!"

After dealing with the three Liu Hu brothers, Xia Shige spent a few days of relatively peaceful time.

As soon as she got up this morning, she received bad news—the power was out.

Fortunately, the provincial network was still connected. Xia Shige sat at the dining table, stirring the fragrant corn porridge while browsing the hot searches and news in the province.

The snowfall continued during this period, burying the entire three-story building. The thickness of the snow has reached ten meters.

According to news reports, due to severe cold weather and raging snowstorms, the temperature dropped to more than ten degrees below zero. Power supply facilities in many places were damaged by the snowstorms. Coupled with insufficient energy supply, there was a large-scale power outage across the country, and it is not expected to be restored in a short time.

Although the Internet in some provinces has not been cut off, the Internet in many cities has been paralyzed.

The hot searches were full of wailing, and everyone was in danger. The power outage made the already difficult living environment even worse.
