52 Moralization
“I believe you!” was all Luo Cheng said before he left with his things.
For some reason, one ‘I believe you’ was worth a thousand words.
“He said that he believed me!” Li Xiaoran smiled happily. “I definitely can’t let him down. I will definitely earn a lot of money.”
At this moment, Li Xiaoran was full of energy.
At this moment, she felt like she was back in the modern world, back when she was a fresh graduate entering the workforce.
The future was promising! She believed that as long as she used her brain and worked hard, she would definitely obtain prosperity.
Of course, Li Xiaoran didn’t hide the matter of handing the reishi mushroom to Luo Cheng for safekeeping.
Li Shun and Zhao Xiu felt that this wasn’t a big deal. After all, their daughter was already married to Luo Cheng.
Therefore, it wasn’t wrong to give the reishi mushroom to Luo Cheng for safekeeping.
Besides, their family was still living off Luo Cheng.
Li Xiaoqing had no objections, but she was thinking that she had to bring her sister up the mountain next time.
Perhaps with the Lucky Star around, the two sisters could even encounter wild ginseng.
Thinking of this, Li Xiaoqing laughed out loud.
“Girl, are you suffering from hysteria? What are you thinking about? Why are you smiling so happily?!” Zhao Xiu asked when she saw that something was wrong with Li Xiaoqing.
When Li Xiaoqing heard her mother’s words, she didn’t hide anything and told her what she had been thinking.
Li Xiaoran was really amused by his sister.
“Do you think wild ginseng is a weed on the mountain? You think you can find one anywhere!”
“It’s not easy for others, but it’s easy for me!” Li Xiaoqing shook Li Xiaoran’s hand innocently.
“Stop, stop, stop, my hands are about to be crushed by you! Xiao Qing, it’s not that I want to criticize you, but your thoughts are very wrong! If you think about relying on these opportunistic things to earn a living, what do you think your life will become?” Li Xiaoran said very seriously.
“Your sister is right! You definitely won’t last long by relying on some crooked methods! Your sister’s matter is based on luck. It’s impossible to encounter it every time. If she encounters it every time, it’ll be a disaster for your sister! Also, don’t tell anyone that the monk you mentioned previously said your sister is a lucky star! From now on, don’t tell anyone. I’ll remind my son-in-law later!” Li Shun, who had always been meek, thought of something and actually said in a very tough tone.
“Your father is right. If the people outside hear these words, your sister’s life won’t be peaceful in the future! I don’t know how many people will have designs on your sister. Our noodle stall is already very eye-catching. If this news gets out, it might cause some disaster! Look, didn’t Li Yan and Li Zhan knock your father out and take him away because of this matter?” Zhao Xiu thought of something and his face paled as he quickly reminded her.
Li Xiaoqing finally realized the seriousness of the matter and felt a lingering fear.
“Father, Mother, I understand! Sister, I’m sorry! I didn’t think so much about it!”
Seeing that Li Xiaoqing had really realized her mistake, Li Xiaoran walked forward and patted her head.
“It’s fine, as long as there’s no next time! In the future, our family will work diligently. Our lives will definitely get better and better! Actually, in the past, our lives were poor because the gains from our parents’ efforts were taken by the Li family! Now that we don’t have these burdens, as long as we’re willing to work hard, our lives will definitely get better and better!”
Li Xiaoqing nodded while clenching her fists now.
“Sister, you’re right. I’ll learn more from you in the future and become a capable person like you!”
“That’s right! But you don’t have to become like me! You have to become better than me and make me proud of you!” Li Xiaoran encouraged.
Li Xiaoqing was only 14 years old at this time, and it was the critical time period of her puberty. That was why Li Xiaoran encouraged her so much.
“Xiao Qing, think about it. If you become outstanding and have the ability to earn money, you don’t have to rely on others anymore. When the time comes, you can spend as much money as you want. You can buy whatever you want. When the time comes, if you want to go back to your parents’ house to see them, you can even confidently buy things to be filial to them! If your husband has any objections, you can still straighten your back and directly say that you earned all the money. What right does he have to have any objections?” Li Xiaoran also instilled in her the idea of being an independent women.
Not to mention Li Xiaoqing, even Li Shun and Zhao Xiu didn’t expect this.
Li Shun wondered if everything would have been different if he had had such thoughts back then instead of blindly filial piety.
One had to know that the Li family relied on him and his wife to farm in order to cover most of their expenses.
Why did Big Brother and Second Brother take everything he earned without doing anything?
If he had such confidence back then, he wouldn’t have let his wife and daughter live such a hard life with him!
Thinking of this, a seed of self-reliance grew in Li Shun’s heart.
To be honest, their days were somewhat similar to the past.
Now that they were still relying on their son-in-law, Luo Cheng, to support them, weren’t they equally lacking in confidence?
Thinking of this, Li Shun began to think about what he should do, and more importantly, what he should change.
Zhao Xiu looked at her eldest daughter with her mouth wide open, as if she wanted to get to know her daughter again.
Although they had the same face, in Zhao Xiu’s eyes, the difference between the current eldest daughter and the previous eldest daughter was too great.
But honestly, she felt more at ease with her eldest daughter these days.
At least she agreed with her eldest daughter.
When she married over, if she didn’t blindly follow her man and instead, she wanted to become stronger like her eldest daughter, perhaps she wouldn’t have had to waste so many years in the Li family.
Li Xiaoqing stared at Li Xiaoran with admiration. She really liked her sister more and more!
Her entire body seemed to be emitting light and was very dazzling.
She liked this kind of sister and wanted to be someone like her!
Luo Cheng saw everything that happened in the courtyard outside. At this moment, he suddenly looked at Li Xiaoran in a different light.
For a peasant woman to have such knowledge, he had probably really picked up a treasure.
