After the original owner's husband passed away, the government issued a series of martyr subsidies, including martyr commendation money, work injury compensation, and regular allowances, which was indeed a huge sum of money.
Over the years, the original owner of this body also had a job. She saved her money, and her salary was enough for her and her daughter to live on.
She didn't touch the money because she was afraid that seeing it would remind her of her ex and cause her sadness.
Another reason was to save money for his daughter's college expenses and dowry.
It's a pity that all her maternal love was wasted in the end.
Xiao Li didn't touch the money; she just took out the original owner's salary card, which contained a large sum of money—all of which the original owner had saved over the years.
Next, she submitted her resignation to her workplace. Although the job was relatively easy, Xiaoli did not plan to go back to work.
On the one hand, this job is very time-consuming. It used to be a good way for the original owner to pass the time, but Xiao Li doesn't want to waste time here.
On the other hand, Xiao Li also didn't want to have close contact with her former acquaintances, since maintaining a persona is quite tiring.
Xiao Li first took care of herself, consuming medicinal pills, spiritual fruits and vegetables, and soaking in a spiritual spring bath...
In just one morning, the person changed completely.
Opening the wardrobe, the clothes inside were long out of style, old-fashioned and worn out.
Xiao Li found a decent-looking knee-length dress, tied her hair into a ponytail, and went to the hair salon.
When she reappeared, she was much more fashionable.
I went to the department store again and bought some clothes, jewelry, cosmetics and skin care products.
She even got a manicure, but it was just a simple treatment with a coat of clear top coat.
Xiao Li didn't stay at home for long. She put her valuables into her spatial storage, packed up the things she bought, left a note for Dong Qingqing, and went on her trip.
"Qingqing, you've grown up. I won't oppose your decisions anymore. But I hope you can think things through before making any decisions and let me know in advance."
Also, Mom is tired. For so many years, I've always followed behind you. This time, Mom wants to be herself again and stop revolving around you.
I'll regularly deposit your living expenses into your account. Focus on your studies at school; I'm going to relax now, don't worry about me!
Xiao left for Nanshi, where spring-like weather prevails all year round. She loved the climate, the fruits, and the wide variety of flowers there.
As soon as Xiaoli got off the car, she went to the beach. She had heard that the sea could broaden one's mind, and she wanted to let off some steam.
Waves, sandy beach, bursts of laughter...
Night, fine wine, seafood feast...
A week later, Xiaoli was completely transformed; she felt as if she had regained her youth.
Having chosen a direction, Xiaoli wandered aimlessly in that direction.
“There’s no way to continue operating here. Pay the wages and I’ll see if I can find a buyer and sell the land.”
A middle-aged man was on the phone, looking dejected.
He contracted this land because he was attracted by the sea of flowers here, but unfortunately, the business failed and the land is now stuck in his hands.
Xiao Li's eyes lit up; she wanted it!
Xiao Li went to the jade gambling market and came out with considerable wealth. She went straight to the middle-aged man and told him that she wanted to buy the farm.
Tao Sizhe looked at the beautiful woman in front of him with surprise.
"Miss Shu, do you know how much this land costs? And this land is not easy to manage. The later maintenance and labor costs will be quite expensive."
He also thought that since this Miss Shu was from out of town, she might not understand.
Xiao Li smiled and said, "I know, don't worry, I have money."
Tao Sizhe was relieved and happily introduced the surrounding area to Xiaoli.
The two quickly completed the transfer of ownership and all the formalities.
Xiao Li planned out this land that belonged to her: flower fields, fish farms, orchards, pavilions, wooden houses...
This is a small farm.
Tao Sizhe was very reluctant to leave this place. Knowing that Xiaoli needed to hire someone to manage it, he volunteered to be in charge himself.
Xiao Li also thought highly of him; he was capable, and his poor management was due to a lack of connections.
After settling everything down here, Xiaoli returned to Lin City.
It happened to be Saturday, and Dong Qingqing returned from school.
For the past month, she had been going home every weekend, but her mother hadn't come back even once. She felt a strange sense of panic and regret.
She understands that it wasn't easy for her mother to raise her, but now that she has someone she likes, why can't her mother bless her?
"Creak..."
The door opened, and as soon as Xiaoli brought her luggage inside, she was hugged by a petite figure.
"Mom, where have you been? You haven't been home for a month. I miss you so much."
Xiao Li looked closely and saw that Dong Qingqing's eyes were red, as if she had just been crying.
"I'm back now, aren't I?"
Dong Qingqing let go of Xiao Li, feeling a little embarrassed.
Xiao Li opened her backpack and took out a jewelry box.
"I went to Nanshi, it's so beautiful there, we can go there to play sometime."
This is a gift for you. I spent a long time choosing it before I finally found it. It will look beautiful on you.
Dong Qingqing felt even more guilty. She snapped at her mother, who was still thinking of her and bringing her a gift even after leaving the house. She felt so ashamed.
"Mom, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have argued with you. Let's not argue anymore, okay?"
Xiao Li smiled and agreed, "Okay, let's not fight anymore."
That evening, Xiao Li cooked and showed off her skills, which Dong Qingqing enjoyed immensely.
"Mom, how come your cooking skills have suddenly improved so much?"
Dong Qingqing asked curiously, and she secretly glanced at her mother. Her mother had changed a lot this time. Not only had her skills improved, but she had also become younger and more fashionable.
Xiao Li calmly put food into her mouth. How could food made in the space not be delicious? Not to mention, her cooking skills also added to the flavor.
"I wasn't idle in Nanshi. I apprenticed with a famous teacher and learned from her, all so I could give you a surprise when I got back."
"Thank you, Mom, it's delicious."
"Eat more if you like it."
The two were unusually harmonious, and neither of them mentioned Wang Xunfei.
After dinner, Xiaoli carried a plate of fruit upstairs.
"Qingqing, come and eat some fruit."
Dong Qingqing was also prepared, and she really wanted to have a heart-to-heart talk with her mother.
“Qingqing, Mom has thought about it. You are still young. Mom should let you experience the beauty of the world instead of simply opposing it.”
Dong Qingqing didn't expect her mother to say that; she thought her mother would object again this time.
"Mom, are you really not against it anymore?"
Xiao Li nodded, "Yes, you're still young. You need to experience some relationships to grow up and learn how to handle them in the future."
Dating doesn't necessarily mean marriage. The reason parents object is because they value it too much. The more they object, the more determined their children become.
“That’s great! I knew you were the best mom in the world.”
