Chapter 462: Patting My Chest and Guaranteeing It!

ed Guo, who then yelled in the direction of the Li family."A heartless wretch, not even helping his own family, he'll surely end up with no children or descendants!"Neighbors of the Liu family, hearin...Li Zhensheng had been in business for over a decade. When it came to business acumen and understanding people's hearts, he was far more skilled than the Li Laosan couple.

After the talk, not only did Li Laosan and his wife benefit greatly, but also Li Laoer, Tao Hongying, and Jia Yin.

Especially Jia Yin, she couldn't help but feel sorry for her uncle.

Had it not been for the Wang family's underhanded actions, cutting him off from his path to success, he would probably have a place at court today…

After they had discussed and agreed, they turned to look at Jia Yin who was sitting in a chair, chin resting on her hand, her chubby little face full of regret. They couldn't help but laugh.

Li Zhensheng pinched his little niece's cheeks and said, "Funi, your third uncle has received a favor from Dr. Zhou this time. You see, can you find two flowers as a thank-you gift"

Jia Yin nodded eagerly, for the sake of supporting her mother's home-cooked dishes business, her space was now filled with many beautiful flowers.

Most of them were collected by the head steward of the Hou's mansion, some arrived half-dead, some were just flower roots, and some were just seeds.

But the nursery has been as strong as ever, and now these flowers have grown lush and vibrant. They are lined up in flower pots in the backyard of the small courtyard. She still needs to water them from time to time, which is tiring her out.

Now that she has given away two pots, she can relax a little.

Thinking this way, she patted her chest confidently and declared, “Third Uncle, worry not! Whatever flowers you desire, we shall have them!”

Li Laosan rubbed his little niece's hair and smiled, "Good, I'll ask around. When the time comes, let your brother Huan come back to pick it up. If not, don't worry, your Uncle San will find another way!"

"Hmm! Hmm!" Jia Yin giggled, hugging San Bo's leg and acting cute. "San Bo is the best!"

Li Laosan crouched down and carried his young niece on his back, planning to stroll around the courtyard for a bit to aid digestion.

Li Lao'er was astonished and couldn't help but ask, "When did Fu Niuer get so close to the third brother"

"Hmph, always been so close!"

At the doorway, the two old men almost spoke in unison to refute him, causing Li Lao Er and everyone else to laugh…

The next morning, Li Lao San and his wife were ready to return to Lu'an.

Li Laotai was thinking about her grandson, who was going to take the examination for child scholar soon. She also wanted to take her granddaughter out for a breath of fresh air, so she told her son and daughter-in-law: "I heard that the academy is going to arrange for students to take the examination for child scholar Jiarren should have taken it when he was in Junyang. Unfortunately, there was a severe drought that year, and the court was also in chaos. Later, they even moved the capital directly, delaying him until now."

"Jiarren has studied for several years, so I presume this young man will find the exam easy enough. But you should still keep a close eye on him. In three or five days, when the spring plowing in the village is finished, I'll take Funiuer to live there for a while."

"Alright, Mother. You and Fu Niuer should go early, and bring Hong Ying along too," Zhao Yuru smiled. "This is the first time we're handling such a big business, and we're not sure how it will go. We hope you'll come and keep us company."

"Don't talk like that, why would you look down on yourselves The two of you are the most reliable and cautious, you can handle anything. Your mother is just being a little overbearing with her words!" Li Lao Tai patted her son and daughter-in-law, urging them to hurry on their way.

Jia Yin also, hugs Third Uncle, hugs Third Aunt, happily waving her little chubby hands.

Li Lao San and his wife also laughed and waved back.

Coincidentally, at this very moment, Qiongshi arrived by carriage to deliver something. She greeted Mr. and Mrs. Li Laosan and then passed them without further interaction.

Qiong's wife moved down quite a bit of chicken, fish, meat and eggs, which made Li Lao scold: "How come Jinrou sent so many things over again"

“Our mistress said that since it’s spring planting season in the Zhuangzi, she is too busy to come back for now. So she sent some food to replenish your bodies. Planting is hard work, and good food gives you energy to work.”

Lao Li knew this was an excuse, after all, which member of the Li family would need to work in the fields these days!

The eldest brother, Jiahuan and Tao Hongying are basically all at the city's restaurant, the third brother and his wife are taking the children to Los Angeles, and the fourth brother is at the dock military camp.

Now, there are only three people living at home who can guard the courtyard: a first-rank誥命夫人, a county princess, and an elder brother...

They want to work, and the villagers can't stop them.

Li Lao Tai wanted to put some gifts in the car, but there wasn't much good stuff at home this time of year. In the end, Jia Yin still pulled her grandmother's hand into the storeroom and brought out a crate of fruit and a crate of vegetables.

Fruits are still available, though occasionally you might find them on the market.

But the emerald green beans, the slender yardlong beans, and the crisp cucumbers are hard to come by! As for the purple, almost black eggplants, they are a real treat!

Seeing this, Qiong's mother smiled with delight and said: "It's easy to get heatstroke in springtime, and our mistress has been busy lately. Her appetite isn't very good, and her lips have even started to chap. With so many greens, she'll be able to eat a few more bites."

Old Li hurriedly said, “In another month, the flowers on the mountain will bloom. At that time, let her come to the village for a short stay. By then, all the vegetables in our family will be harvested, and she can have as many as she wants.”

Qiong's wife agreed and hurried home.

As there were few people in the household, they couldn't finish all these things. So, Old Mrs. Li called Huiniang and Liu Sa over to share some with her family.

Hui Niang and Liu's wife didn't decline, after all, they were also good friends with Cui's wife.

Hui Niang said, "I've been making shoes these past few days. I'm getting a pair for Sister Cui and one for my aunt."

Auntie Liu also smiled and said, "What a coincidence, I'm sewing a dress, I'll bring two sets as well."

Jiao Yin, taking advantage of their lively conversation, slipped quietly along the wall and out.

It's a pity that she was still caught by Huiniang, "Lazy girl, where are you going Come here quickly and show me the pouch you sewed yesterday!"

Jia Yin grinned, showing a tiny white tooth, and smiled foolishly as if she didn't understand.

"Little Apprentice, isn't there anything else you don't understand After only a few days of hard work, you're starting to slack off again!"

But before she could speak, Old Li had already covered for her granddaughter. "Aiya, yesterday Lao San and Yu Ru came back, Fu Niuer was so busy following them around, she completely forgot about sewing the pouch. So, tonight... no, tomorrow we'll definitely finish it!"

Hui Niang had a firsthand experience of He Mamu's helplessness, teaching an apprentice is so difficult!

But when the old woman opened her mouth, the chubby girl pounced on her arms and shook them coquettishly. What could she say…

Although Li Laotai said she believed in her third son and daughter-in-law, she couldn't let go of her worries.

This couple has to take care of five boys and also manage the school cafeteria. They only have Wu Sanniang and Wu Sanye to help them. Thinking about it, it's definitely tiring.

So, she told Shuicun to prepare several more good dishes for dinner, waiting for Li Zhensheng and Li Laoer to return. Then, she also invited the village head, Zhao Shu and Liu Biaotou over.

As for Dr. Zhang, the old man has recently made progress in his research on anesthesia and is completely engrossed in his experiments, refusing to come over no matter what.

Good wine and good food can't make him leave his beloved post!

As Li Laotai was unable to, she could only have Zheng He send a food box over.

Everyone was accustomed to coming to Li's house for meals and no one felt out of place.

After eating and drinking to our fill, we began to discuss the matter at hand.

It is said that Li Laosan is going to take over the school cafeteria, and the village head and others are overjoyed...wife, who lay beside him in bed, he felt as if he were seeing a stranger.He was the marquis's personal guard. Nothing else mattered, loyalty came first.But he never expected that his daughter-in-law w...
