The day before Yan Yinran returned to the Bai family, Li Shuwen and Yan Youting had promised to bring Yan Xiluo back to the Li family today. Li Yaosen and Si Yaqin had mentioned their beloved granddaughter many times. As for Yan Xiluo's five older brothers, after dropping Yan Yinran off, they all returned to their respective workplaces.
The Li family lives in City B. Considering that Li Yaosen and Si Yaqin are getting old and their health is not very good, it is not suitable for them to travel around. Li Shuwen insisted that they not come to City A to see Yan Xiluo.
Li family
"Yaqin, look at me, how do I look in this outfit? Don't I look smart and energetic?"
Li Yaosen specially wore the new clothes he had ordered a few days ago, just to leave a good impression on Yan Xiluo.
"You look great! What do you think of my hairstyle and outfit today?"
Si Yaqin also wanted to leave a good impression on her beloved granddaughter, so she happily twirled around in front of Li Yaosen.
"Beautiful! Still so gorgeous, her charm remains undiminished!"
Li Yaosen looked at Si Yaqin with a face full of doting affection. Everyone knows that Li Yaosen is a famously doting husband. They have been together for almost fifty years, from getting to know each other to falling in love and having a family.
"We've been married for so long, yet you still know how to say sweet nothings."
Despite saying that, Si Yaqin was still secretly delighted.
Yesterday, Si Yaqin specifically instructed the household servants to give the house a thorough cleaning and even prepared a room for Yan Xiluo. New potted plants were added to the garden, bringing more color to the yard.
Knowing that his niece was coming back, Li Shangjue didn't go to work today, and Zhang Yiting also specially canceled her tea party with her girlfriends.
Li Shaochuan also rushed back from abroad yesterday. Ever since he learned that Yan Xiluo went to Ghost Island to retrieve the live tongcao, he had been looking for an opportunity to talk to her.
Li Mufei had naturally finished her work and returned last night, since today was a reunion as cousins. Although they managed the company together as best friends, they only saw each other a few times a month; she had come back specifically to see her.
Li Shuyan had just returned from a fashion show.
Yan Family
Seeing that Yan Yinran hadn't gotten up yet, Li Shuwen guessed she was exhausted from the past few days, so she discussed with Yan Youting not waking her up and letting her rest at home. They could just go back to the Li family home with Yan Xiluo.
Yan Xiluo had the servants help load all the gifts she prepared for the Li family relatives into the car. She had made special preparations for this trip, knowing that she would inevitably receive gifts when visiting the Li family. Even if she didn't receive any gifts, she arranged these gifts several days in advance to avoid being impolite.
"Dad, Mom, I've put all the gifts I prepared for everyone in the trunk. We can leave now."
“Okay, let’s set off now!” Li Shuwen took Yan Xiluo’s hand and walked towards the car.
Yan Youting followed behind his wife and daughter, feeling at that moment as if he had been forgotten by the mother and daughter...
This time, Uncle Ye drove his family's seven-seater van. In addition to the gifts prepared by Yan Xiluo, there were also gifts prepared by Yan Youting and Li Shuwen. The back seats were also filled with things.
It takes seven or eight hours to get from City A to City B. I originally wanted to fly there in my private plane, but unfortunately the plane had a malfunction and repairs will take time.
City B's development is now no less than City A's. Previously, Li Shangjue's business was mostly in City A. In order to be able to go home and visit his parents more often, he and Li Shuwen had considered bringing their parents to City A. However, his parents were nostalgic and still preferred life in City B, so they stayed there. Only after Li Shangjue's business flourished in City A did he expand his operations back to City B, thus boosting City B's economic development.
"You Ting, although you drove a bit slowly, the scenery along the way was really beautiful."
Li Shuwen hadn't looked out the window like this in a long time. In the past, when she went to faraway places, she would always take a plane to save time.
"Yes, that reminds me of the year I gave birth to Luo Luo."
Yan Youting couldn't help but sigh, perhaps sighing at the beauty of the scenery in Xifeng Town at that time, or perhaps sighing at the debt he owed to Yan Xiluo for switching babies.
"Luo Luo, a week before you were born, your father had to go to Xifeng Town for business. Because your grandparents were worried that your five older brothers might be naughty and accidentally bump my belly, they brought them all to the old house. Your father was worried about leaving me alone at home, so he took me with him. The scenery there was beautiful; the town was full of houses that had preserved their old architectural style, with mountains and water, and the air was so fresh. Thinking that my due date wasn't yet, I begged your father to stay with me for a few more days because I really loved the town. But who knew that I would suddenly go into labor after only two days..."
As Li Shuwen reminisced, she told Yan Xiluo stories from that time. Along the way, Li Shuwen and Yan Xiluo also chatted about many funny things their five sons used to do. The car was filled with laughter and joy. Time passed slowly, and when they got tired of talking, Li Shuwen and Yan Xiluo leaned against each other and fell asleep, while Yan Youting silently watched his wife and daughter.
