Chapter 401 The Clever Uses of a Green Hat



"What's the big deal? At worst, when we get to the East China Sea, you can just teach me all your skills!" Gu Lili joked.

Yu Yirou nodded seriously.

"Of course, I will certainly teach you everything I know!"

Gu Lili smiled as she carried the wheelchair in and then pushed it toward Yu Yirou.

Yu Yirou was sitting at the table, carving a comb.

When he saw Gu Lili come in, he was holding a comb, but when he saw the wheelchair, he couldn't even hold the comb properly and it fell to the ground.

She had never seen a chair with wheels before; it was truly amazing!

Gu Lili smiled and pushed the chair in front of Yu Yirou, saying, "This is the wheelchair I prepared for Madam. Do you like it?"

Little Mulan was also deeply attracted by the chair. She put down the food that Gu Lili had given her and ran over.

"Sister Lili, this chair is amazing! It can move with just a push!" Little Mulan said excitedly.

Gu Lili said that this is a gift for her mother, so she can push her mother out in a wheelchair from now on!

Gu Lili smiled and nodded, saying, "Let's try helping your mother up there!"

Xiao Mulan nodded heavily, and together with Gu Lili, helped Yu Yirou, who was somewhat stunned but with tears in her eyes, up.

Little Mulan couldn't wait to push Yu Yirou around the room.

Sitting in her wheelchair, Yu Yirou seemed to only now truly come to her senses.

She thought that she would have to live her whole life like this, in darkness and gloom.

I never imagined that one day I would have the opportunity to go out and see the world.

After all, her legs were useless, and if she wanted to go out, she could only be carried by someone.

Mulan is too young; how could she possibly carry her on her back?

Yu Yirou thought that in the future she would be able to go out with Mu Lian, and she would no longer have to let Mu Lian go out alone, and she would no longer have to worry about Mu Lian being bullied.

Suddenly, a surge of excitement welled up inside me.

This made her cover her face and cry, and she couldn't help but feel emotional.

My little Mulan! From now on, you won't have to go out alone anymore; your mother can protect you!

Seeing Yu Yirou covering her face and crying, Mu Lian, who had been excitedly pushing the wheelchair, immediately stopped.

"Mother, what's wrong? Why are you crying all of a sudden?" Mulan asked anxiously.

Yu Yirou cried for a while before she could calm herself down.

"Mother is alright, Miss Gu, thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to go out with my daughter!"

Yu Yirou touched Mu Lian's hair, then turned to Gu Lili with gratitude.

When she and Mulan first arrived in Jiangdu, Mulan went out to set up a stall by herself. People often bullied her because she was young.

Some people even secretly tried to sabotage her by throwing stones at her.

She remembered one time when Mulan's head was hit and bled.

When she got home, Yu Yirou asked her, and she just said that she had fallen to the ground and bumped her head.

However, when Yu Yirou examined Mu Lian's palms and knees, she found no abrasions, and she understood that Mu Lian must have been bullied outside.

In an instant, Yu Yirou felt as if her heart was being torn apart.

In the dead of night, she would always beat her legs, hating them for not being able to stand up to her.

However, in order to survive, Xiao Mulan had no choice but to continue selling jewelry.

Fortunately, in the days that followed, the new woman at the stall next door always took care of Mulan, and that's why the incident didn't happen again.

However, this left Yu Yirou with a lingering grudge.

If she had gone with them back then, she might not have been able to stop others from bullying Mu Lian, but at least she could have shielded her from that pain.

“This is a lot of money, I’ll give it to you,” Yu Yirou said, reaching into her purse.

Gu Lili has already helped them so much; they absolutely cannot accept this wheelchair for nothing.

Gu Lili waved her hand and said, "Madam Yu, there's no need to be so polite, please accept it."

Yu Yirou, however, refused and insisted on giving the money to Gu Lili.

Gu Lili knew that Yu Yirou definitely didn't want Gu Lili to pity her.

She smiled and nodded, saying, "Three taels of silver."

Yu Yirou smiled and handed the silver to Gu Lili, feeling relieved.

Actually, she didn't want Gu Lili to pity her; she was afraid that Mu Lian would never be able to hold her head high again.

Gu Lili naturally understood, so she symbolically accepted three taels of silver.

After seeing Gu Lili accept the silver, Yu Yirou took out a few hairpins from her bosom and handed them to Gu Lili.

"Miss Gu, this is a hairpin I made before. I hope you won't find it offensive and will accept it," Yu Yirou said with a smile.

Gu Lili helped pay the room fee and bought them food.

She felt really bad about it, so she took out her treasured hairpin.

She obtained the wood by chance and carved several hairpins, intending to use them as part of Mulan's dowry in the future.

Half of it has been given to Gu Lili, so it can be considered a give and take.

Gu Lili glanced at the hairpin and immediately recognized the material of the wood in her mind.

This is walnut wood, which is much more expensive than the peach wood that Yu Yirou usually uses to carve jewelry.

He then understood that Yu Yirou didn't want to owe him anything.

"Madam is so skillful, then I'll accept it," Gu Lili said with a smile, tucking the hairpin Yu Yirou had given her into her sleeve.

The two started chatting.

As they were talking, Mulan pointed out the window in surprise and said, "Sister Lili, come and see! The chair that person is sitting on is the same one you gave to Mother!"

Gu Lili and Yu Yirou both looked curious, so she simply pushed Yu Yirou and they went to the window together.

The three looked down and saw that the person in the wheelchair was wearing a green hat.

Gu Lili recognized Liu Yuanliang at a glance and almost burst out laughing.

Liu Ying is truly a remarkable person; she actually used this method to deal with Liu Yuanliang.

That's brilliant!

Mulan looked at the hat on the man's head and said with curiosity, "Mother, that man's green hat is quite nice. When it gets cold, I'll make one for you too."

Gu Lili and Yu Yirou were almost choked by Mu Lian's innocent remarks.

"Mulan, you can't just wear a green hat like that!" Gu Lili said with a smile.

Yu Yirou patted Mu Lian's shoulder gently, somewhat helplessly.

"Yes, let's change the color. Mother doesn't really like green hats!"

After Yu Yirou finished speaking, she and Gu Lili laughed.

Mulan was a little confused, not understanding what Yu Yirou and Gu Lili were laughing about.

However, since Mother said she doesn't like green hats, then we can just change the color.

"Then, Mother, let me make you a red one!"

Yu Yirou smiled and nodded, "Okay, red is good!"

Just like their future, things will gradually become prosperous.

After chatting with the Yu family mother and daughter for a while, seeing that it was getting late, Gu Lili got up and returned to the Liu residence.
