Li Changgeng gritted his teeth, about to tell the truth, when Bai Yueniang chuckled: "Brother Li, Sister Mo is talking to you about the nursing home..."
"A nursing home?" Li Changgeng blushed, belatedly realizing that he had been too hasty and almost, just a tiny bit, had revealed his second son's secret.
Li Changgeng felt a chill of fear. If Cuihua knew the truth, would she want to strangle him?
Sun Yunhui coughed lightly. It seemed that Brother Li really had something to say just now... Could it be that Brother Li made a mistake and didn't want Sister-in-law Cuihua to know?
Li Changgeng never dreamed that his momentary carelessness would almost lead to him being abandoned by everyone. It was only after Bai Yueniang's explanation that the misunderstanding was cleared up...
"Madam Mo, is the nursing home you mentioned related to the elderly in the village?" Li Changgeng and Sun Yunhui exchanged a glance, their eyes flashing with shock, and asked curiously.
Mo Qingcheng nodded: "Brother Li, Brother Sun, there are more and more elderly people in the village, and no one is watching their homes. What if they get hurt..."
Li Changgeng sighed deeply. Madam Mo had really hit the nail on the head. Every family has its own troubles, but the hardest thing is having no one to take care of the children or the elderly.
I'm so worried...
"But, Madam Mo, I'm afraid the village elders won't agree..."
“Yes, Madam Mo, it has always been a matter of course for sons to support their parents.” Sun Yunhui looked puzzled; Madam Mo’s method probably wouldn’t work.
Mo Qingcheng wasn't in a hurry. Changing the mindset of the village elders wasn't something that could be done overnight. Besides... having an elder in the family is like having a treasure, unless the elderly are destitute and have nowhere else to turn.
"Yes, Brother Li and Brother Sun are absolutely right. I just had this sudden thought. What if there's no one to take care of us at home... We can't rely on our neighbors to help us every day..." Mo Qingcheng came up with the most lame excuse.
Bai Yueniang barely suppressed the urge to burst out laughing. Even Sister Mo has her moments of being at a disadvantage, hahaha!
Li Changgeng and Sun Yunhui gradually relaxed and began to express their opinions. Mo Qingcheng nodded, while Bai Yueniang was surprised, thinking that Brother Li and Brother Sun had really been held back...
An hour later, Li Changgeng and Sun Yunhui walked out of the flower hall looking refreshed, just as Liu Cuihua came over to ask where they were having dinner.
The two grown men's eyes lit up, and they slowed their pace, knowing that Madam Mo would definitely invite them to stay for dinner.
Cough cough...
Liu Cuihua, holding a shovel, looked at the two people walking in the wrong direction with a strange expression, then put her hands on her hips and laughed loudly.
"Honey, didn't you eat enough this morning?" Liu Cuihua tapped the spatula in her hand, the meaning of which was self-evident.
Li Changgeng, his face dark, snorted and pulled Sun Yunhui forward with long strides.
Sun Yunhui: "..."
Brother Li, you're really not being fair. You can't have any yourself, and you won't let me have any either. What kind of logic is that?
Li Changgeng did indeed have such a ulterior motive: if his own wife wouldn't let him eat it, then no one else could either.
Bai Yueniang suddenly remembered something, whispered something to Mo Qingcheng, walked out of the flower hall, saw Li Changgeng rushing away angrily, and chuckled.
"Brother Li, Sister Mo said she'd treat you to dinner, but... let's just forget about it... maybe next time..." Bai Yueniang's eyes darted around, and she gave a mischievous smile.
Mo Qingchen poked Bai Yueniang's forehead: "Naughty!"
Bai Yueniang pouted and said, "Hehe, believe it or not, I'll count to three, and Brother Li and the others will definitely come back."
"No need to count anymore..."
"ah?"
"Look..."
"Pfft..." Bai Yueniang couldn't help but chuckle.
As he spoke, Li Changgeng shook off Sun Yunhui's hand and strode forward, saying, "Thank you, Madam Mo!"
"Honey, why can't I see your left cheek?" Liu Cuihua tilted her head, her eyes full of surprise, and looked at Li Changgeng with a smile.
"Cough cough..."
