Having understood his friend's meaning, Li Huai's thoughts returned to normal.
"Thanks, buddy. My mom didn't leave anything behind, so what she needs to spend has nothing to do with my mom's things."
"Li Huai, if we go by what you say, do you think Uncle Li might have made a mistake with her way of arranging the flowers?"
"Who knows? Maybe she was too good at using her pillow talk and he couldn't resist," he said sarcastically.
“Li Huai, I know you and Uncle Li don’t get along, but if something really happens to Uncle Li, it will definitely affect you too. Don’t forget that.”
"Don't worry, if he really has a problem, I will stand up for him and put aside my own family ties."
"Fine, just remember that," Zhang Yu said speechlessly.
After hanging up the phone, Li Huai's expression was not as relaxed and indifferent as he had said; in fact, he seemed a little dejected.
Others can remember their mother's kindness, but what about Li Zhenhua?
Will he still recall even the slightest memory of his mother?
His fists clenched as he thought about what happened when his mother left.
He will never forgive Li Zhenhua and Yu Huimin, that despicable couple!
Reminded by his friend, Li Huai also thought of his mother.
Upon returning home at noon, Li Huai did not immediately wash his hands and eat. Instead, he went into the inner room and began rummaging through drawers and cabinets.
Zhao Qinglan was curious, so she let the three children eat first and then went inside.
"What are you looking for if you're not eating?"
As soon as she finished asking the question, Li Huai took out a wooden box and pushed it in front of her.
"This is something my mother left me, and it's also something she left for her daughter-in-law. Qinglan, now I'm entrusting it to you."
When he married Zhu Kexin, he had considered giving her this wooden box.
Unfortunately, shortly after they got married, he discovered that Zhu Kexin had ulterior motives and wasn't sincere about living with him, so he didn't take out the wooden box.
He had planned that he would give it to her once their relationship improved.
But even after the divorce, Zhu Kexin never got that opportunity.
However, he is quite glad that he didn't give them to Zhu Kexin, because Zhu Kexin doesn't deserve these things from her mother.
Looking at the wooden box in front of her and learning its origin, Zhao Qinglan was extremely shocked.
She must have heard correctly; these were things left behind by her deceased mother-in-law.
In her previous life, when she was with Li Huai, this kind of thing never happened.
When Li Huai got divorced in this life, she hadn't returned yet, so the divorce time must be the same as in the previous life.
Since Li Huai didn't give this to Zhu Kexin, he definitely didn't give it to her in his previous life either. So where did it go afterward?
However, she only had a slight doubt before letting the question bother her, after all, she was already quite old when she met Li Huai in her previous life.
In the decades that have passed, nothing is surprising.
Out of curiosity, she opened the wooden box and exclaimed in surprise when she saw what was inside.
Li Huai already knew what was in the wooden box, so he wasn't surprised at all.
"This, this is far too valuable!" she exclaimed in surprise.
The wooden box contained a jade bracelet, as well as exquisite and luxurious-looking rings, necklaces, and even diamond jewelry.
What kind of background does this mother-in-law, whom she has never met, have? In later generations, would these things be worth several houses?
"Who cares if it's valuable or not? It's all yours now anyway," Li Huai said indifferently.
His mother squandered all her family's wealth, and in the end, all that was left were some pieces of jewelry that she had used herself.
He couldn't use these things anyway, keeping them was just a keepsake, and he didn't want to leave his mother's belongings in that house he loathed, letting those two scoundrels benefit from them.
Now, he and Qinglan are in love. His mother had mentioned this thing on her deathbed: if he got married in the future, he should leave it to his wife, his future daughter-in-law.
Giving it to Qinglan is the best way to deal with her mother's belongings.
Even though Wang Dazhi became successful in his previous life, Zhao Qinglan still got to see some of the world.
But now, receiving such an expensive gift still left her quite bewildered.
"How about I leave it here for you? I'll take care of it." she suggested thoughtfully.
"Qinglan, if you keep doing this, I'll get angry. Aren't we family? I've given you the things, so they're yours now." Li Huai said sternly.
Seeing his reaction, Zhao Qinglan said helplessly, "Alright, I'll accept it."
Seeing that she finally relented, Li Huai smiled. "Then I'm going out to eat. The things are all yours now, you can do whatever you want with them."
Emma, these things are really valuable! Thinking this, she quickly put them away carefully and hid them in what she considered the safest and most secret place before going out to eat.
While eating, Zhao Qinglan's heart was still pounding, and she couldn't believe that her net worth had just increased so much.
Li Huai really gave her a huge "surprise".
Although these items were all quite valuable, he knew they were his late mother-in-law's belongings, and Li Huai had solemnly handed them to him.
Even if Zhao Qinglan is short of money, she will not touch these items casually.
In the current environment, she doesn't even dare to take these pieces of jewelry out. She can only keep them for now and make plans when everyone's living conditions improve.
Perhaps because of Li Huai's sincerity and generosity, Zhao Qinglan smiled more when she looked at him.
In her past life and the next, she heard a saying: to see if a man is sincere towards you, first see if he is willing to spend money on you.
While this isn't an absolute truth, it certainly reflects the reality for most men.
