"You're talking so animatedly..."
As soon as Zhao Lihan heard the voice, he knew it was his wife returning.
He limped over and said, "Wife, the work is done."
Wang Xiaolan nodded and said, "It's done."
"Are you tired?"
"fine."
Liu Pei joked, "Our Zhao Lihan loses his mind when he sees his wife."
Wang Xiaolan's face turned red when she heard this.
Then he whispered, "There are so many people here, you should restrain yourself and don't let people laugh at you."
"You are my legitimate wife, there is nothing to be embarrassed about."
"You're such a chatterbox, I'm too lazy to talk to you."
Seeing her shy look, Zhao Lihan spread his hands, shrugged his shoulders, and gave a doting smile.
The people around also laughed.
Wang Xiaolan whispered to him, "I'll settle the score with you tonight."
He replied quietly and humorously: "I'd love to settle the score with you..."
She looked at her husband and thought, "He looks like a gentleman, but he's always stern to everyone else, except for me. I really can't do anything about him, but I still feel sweet inside."
She deliberately rolled her eyes at him and turned to the old man.
"How do you feel, old man?"
The old man looked at Wang Xiaolan with a smile and said, "I'm fine, thank you, my daughter."
At this time, Xiaoli interrupted and said, "Doctor Wang, my father wants to adopt you as his goddaughter. Do you agree?"
Wang Xiaolan was stunned and thought to herself, "What's going on? I've only been out for a short while, and now there's another father."
Seeing this, Zhao Lihan gently pushed her.
"Don't stand here like an idiot. Call me daddy."
Wang Xiaolan looked at Zhao Lihan with confusion, not knowing what to say.
Zhao Lihan recounted the whole story.
She then looked at the old man with sudden realization.
The old man looked at her expectantly.
Wang Xiaolan squatted in front of the old man.
"Dad..." Her voice was a little excited.
"Hey, my dear daughter, you and Xiaoli are both my own daughters."
At this time, Xiaoli came over and gave her a warm hug.
"Little sister, it's good now. I'm not alone anymore. It's great to have you here with me."
The old man smiled happily.
"Dad, you have to give your daughter a gift!"
"Yes, that's what should be done."
I saw him rummaging in his pockets.
Wang Xiaolan quickly stopped him and said, "Don't spend money, I appreciate it."
At this time, the old man took out a red cloth bag from his underwear pocket. He slowly uncovered the first layer, revealing a white cloth package inside. Then he opened another layer, revealing a black velvet bag inside. Then he opened this bag again, revealing a pair of dazzling white silver earrings.
"This pair of earrings was Xiaoli's mother's dowry. I have always kept them with me. Today I will give them to you."
Wang Xiaolan quickly waved her hands: "Dad, this won't work. It's too precious. You should keep it by your side!"
"You must take this. It's a gift from me, otherwise I'll be angry."
Xiaoli persuaded her, "Little sister, just take it! This is a little gift from our dad."
Liu Pei also persuaded, "Take it! The old man treats you as his own daughter."
Wang Xiaolan was very excited when she saw everyone trying to persuade her and the old man's expectant look.
She had no choice but to accept it.
"Thank you, Dad."
"What a thank you the family said."
After Wang Xiaolan took the earrings, she took out one of them and put it in Xiaoli's hand.
Xiaoli held the earrings and asked with a puzzled look on her face, "Little sister, what are you doing..."
"This is Daddy's most precious thing. I can't keep it all to myself. You should have a share. This is the true love between sisters. Am I right?"
Liu Pei said from the side: "Sister-in-law, I know why Li Han cares about you so much..."
Zhao Lihan interrupted and said, "Brother Liu, you know, your sister-in-law is my treasure."
"Look at you, you're so cocky. Don't forget, you have to call me brother-in-law."
"Why do I call you brother-in-law?"
"Xiao Li is your sister, and I am your sister's husband. This is a matter of seniority. You know it without me having to explain."
"Ah!" Zhao Lihan widened his eyes and looked at Liu Pei.
He looked so funny that everyone burst into laughter.
…
Just then, Gong Fengli ran over panting.
"You guys still have the nerve to laugh here. I'm so tired."
If it weren't for her words, everyone would have forgotten about the Xiao incident long ago.
Gong Fengli threw a bag of dry cow dung to Wang Xiaolan with an unhappy look on her face.
"This is what you wanted."
Everyone present saw that she was arrogant.
"Hey, hey, what's with your attitude? This is to treat your Lao Xiao, not for others. If you don't do it, who will?"
"What are you still standing there for? Pick it up quickly."
When Gong Fengli heard this, she knew she was in the wrong, but she couldn't bring herself to lose face, so she just stood there stupidly.
It was embarrassing enough to be laughed at by the villagers just for getting these dried cow dung. She really didn't want to do this.
"Old Gong, today is different from the past. Don't carry on like this. Isn't it of any benefit to you?"
When he saw Gong Fengli's expression, he thought, "As the saying goes, husband and wife are birds of the same forest, but when disaster strikes, they each fly away."
