froze mid-action, suspended in the air, before being blasted to the ground by a ripple of energy beams.The ripples made no pause, instead charging back into the heart of the battle. At this time, Mast...This time, ripples didn't bring her grandson, but instead made an appointment with Lu Anli's small car and went to the city alone.
Lu An, as usual, picked up Ripples at the station and set off for the city. He didn't stop talking along the way because there were only the two of them, so he spoke without reservation.
"Big sister, is your daughter's early love problem finally solved"
Although it was a series of fortunate accidents, the result is better than I expected.
"That's good. But elder sister, because the actor we invited came for nothing, although he didn't make an appearance, I've already paid him. So there's no point in getting it back."
Lu Anli still explained something.
"I can't let them make a wasted trip, so consider this a thank you. I'll pay for it."
Ripple said generously.
"Elder sister, you've really put a lot of effort into this for your daughter. You even traveled far and wide to find someone to act in this play. To make it more convincing, you specifically chose someone from the village where Feng Nianhua once went down to the countryside."
This little widow really did have gossip with that Feng Nianhua, but it was all this little widow's own design. She wanted to get close to the young man. It was only after a few days of gossiping that his whole family went back to the city.
This matter was handled by Lu An, and he has a car, making it convenient for him to travel back and forth. Ripple found this external help specifically for convenience.
"Alas! My daughter is still quite obedient, but after all, she is young and inexperienced. If I were to be harsh with her, there's no guarantee she would listen. I fear that it might provoke a rebellious attitude in her, and then she would go against me. Wouldn't that just push her further away"
After much deliberation, I think it's best to pretend I know nothing. Besides, the two of them are only at the stage of mutual liking and wouldn't do anything out of line. Moreover, getting someone to act out a scene should be enough to make things clear between them.
There's nothing to hide about ripples.
"Hehe, some things are just destined to be. Didn't expect a robber would expose that young man's true colors."
Before, I had that little widow in my car, waiting for them on the main road. Unexpectedly, I saw Feng Nianhua run out from the alleyway without looking back. He ran faster than a rabbit.
I felt something was wrong. Just as I got out of the car and prepared to check the alley, I saw your daughter run out from the alley too, almost colliding with me.
After a while, a man wearing a hat walked out with his legs clamped together. At first glance, he looked like he had been kicked in the groin. I thought something was wrong and wanted to chase after him, but the young widow held me back. She said Feng Nianhua had run away and asked if we should go after him.
I'm not sure what happened, so I just sent the widow to the station. When I came back, I saw you, big sister, with your daughter and the police walking into the alley. So I played the role of a good Samaritan for a bit."
Lu An explained everything that had happened in just a few words.
So sometimes things just work out that way.
Ripple smiled and said.
As they talked, they arrived at the city center. This time, the car drove directly to the door of the foreign goods store. Lianyi carried her own sewn canvas backpack and entered the store.
The young man who had last served her saw the ripples and immediately lit up. He came out from behind the counter, beaming, and said:
"Master Luo, you're here!"
"Well, I've finished another embroidery piece. Here, take a look."
Ripple accepted the other master's address, after all, her embroidery skills were there for all to see.
"Master Luo, please come in!"
The young man went straight to the office with ripples.
Upon entering the office, Lianyi wasted no time and went straight to the point, taking out her second embroidery piece. This time it was a piece depicting blossoming wealth and auspiciousness, mainly focused on peonies. The double-sided peonies displayed different postures, but both were strikingly beautiful and vibrant.
"Master Luo is truly a master, this piece is no less impressive than the previous ones."
The young man praised.
Because this artwork is smaller in scale, the price couldn't compare to the first one and it was finally sold for three thousand yuan.
Even ripples wasn't greedy, and she still let the other party transfer money into her account as usual. Looking at the growing numbers in her account, she was still very happy.
I went to the department store and bought some snacks, got a calligraphy brush and red ink set for my eldest, and then left the state-owned hotel with Lu An to have a meal. It was also a way to thank him for his help before.
After the ripples subsided, she went next door to pick up Da Bao. She gave the milk powder she bought for Bei Bei to her mother-in-law, and the two chatted about family matters for a while.
Although Li Juan's mother is a small-footed elderly woman, she is quite knowledgeable and gets along well with Lian Yi. Seeing how good Lian Yi is to her granddaughter, she smiles and talks about her three sons at home.
These debt collectors don't even know how to celebrate the New Year properly. They brought me some rotten apples and wanted me to cook them a reunion dinner! I couldn't believe they had the nerve. I kicked them out immediately!
"Well done! Your in-laws are well off now, with plenty to eat and drink, plus monthly support from their daughter. They already have a comfortable life, why go back to being an old mother"
Ripple expressed concern about the potential for chaos and immediately voiced their support for the grandmother's decision.
“Well, my son-in-law is so kind to me, and Beibei is easy to take care of. It doesn't take much effort at all. It's even more comfortable than living with those unfilial sons of mine. The house is also more spacious. I must have been foolish to go back to be a mother to them.”
The old woman said with a smile.
That's it, just stay here and help Juan.
I've had to take care of Dabao a lot these past two years. After all, he's so young and has lost his dad, and mom left too. Qingmei is in her senior year of high school this year, which is a crucial year for her; whether she gets into university depends on how well she does this year. Qinghai also needs to take the high school entrance exam, so I have to ask my in-laws for help too.
Ripple also smiled and explained.
“Rest assured, mother-in-law. I have everything under control. You're not easy either. My four children are all settled and married, so I can let go a bit. You still need to work hard for another two years. Besides, Juan is my daughter, and Beibei is my granddaughter. How could I not help them”
Li's mother smiled and said.
The two chatted for a while, and after the old man finished reading a children's book, the two returned to their own courtyard.
That evening, when Qingmei came home from school, she took Lianyi's arm and said:
"Mom, next month our school is having its anniversary celebration and we're going to have a performance. They invited family members to watch, so Mom, you should come too!"
"Alright, I'll bring Big Treasure with me. What kind of performance will you be doing"
"The song and dance that my classmates and I practiced."
Then I definitely have to go see my daughter's performance.
After agreeing, she started to think about taking advantage of this opportunity to get closer to Feng Nianhua and eliminate the evil spirit.
On the other side, Feng Nianhua was still unaware of his impending misfortune. At this moment, he was rehearsing a poetry recitation, preparing to shine at the school anniversary celebration and then get closer to the spirit within Zhuzi to choose his next target.
The evil spirits repeatedly hit a wall when they tried to target the Song family, so they chose to temporarily bypass them and lie low for a while. After some time, seeing no further reaction from the Song family, they began to stir up trouble again.
On March 1st, Ripples dressed up a bit, wearing a new outfit and bringing her adorable eldest daughter to watch the program at Zhenyi Middle School.
"Mom, Da Bao, over here!"
Song Qingmei, dressed in her performance costume, waved to Lianyi at the entrance of the auditorium.one knows what her eldest daughter did, and others have even retaliated against her in a way that is both subtle and undetectable. With such skill, Madam Hou can only feel ashamed of herself.The perso...
