Chapter 181
181 Parents’ Hearts
No matter what, they had been husband and wife for many years. Zhao Xiu understood what Li Shun meant.
“You want to make a dowry for your daughter?”
Li Shun nodded.
“In the past, I didn’t have the ability. Now that I have time and know where to find good wood, I naturally have to prepare it. All these years, I owed the three of you a lot. What happened in the past is in the past, but now, I have to think for you guys. Therefore, when Xiaoran gets married this time, I’ll make a wardrobe for her and a piggy bank for her. It can be considered fulfilling my duty as her father!”
At this, Li Shun’s expression softened.
“In the past, I often heard people say that girls like to be able to wear beautiful clothes every day and manage the family’s money. In that case, I’ll make a wardrobe for my daughter to store her beautiful clothes. I’ll make a piggy bank so that she can have money every day and live a comfortable life!”
Zhao Xiu also felt that this was a good idea.
“In that case, as a mother, I have to help! No matter what, this is a token of appreciation from us parents!”
“Alright, Xiu’er, when the time comes, help me peel wood and clean the wood shavings. It can be considered your contribution!” Li Shun said with a smile.
“Alright, I’ll do what I can and not interfere with you making our daughter’s dowry!” Zhao Xiu replied with a smile.
After settling a big matter, the couple could sleep in peace.
Of course, the rest of the family was also wondering what to do.
Li Xiaoqing, on the other hand, was thinking about what she could give her sister to express her blessings.
Luo Ziyang was also thinking about what congratulatory gift he should give his brother and sister-in-law.
After all, he was Luo Cheng’s younger brother now. He should prepare a congratulatory gift.
On Guan Dongshan’s side, he told his wife that Luo Cheng had promised to protect their son.
With that, Guan Dongshan looked at his wife.
“Hui’er, do you think we should move in with Kang’er?”
When He Hui heard this news, she looked at her son, Guan Kang.
To be honest, if possible, He Hui naturally wanted to be by her son’s side.
She had barely accompanied her son since he was born.
Now that he was finally home, she really couldn’t bear to live separately from him!
Seeing his wife’s reluctance, Guan Dongshan understood something.
Guan Dongshan thought for a moment and said, “In that case, let’s move in together! Fortunately, we’re all from the same village. In the future, we’ll work harder. We’ll come back in the day to feed the ducks and go back to accompany Kang’er at night. However, even if we move in, we have to take care of ourselves. We can’t take advantage of Luo Cheng anymore!”
“Then why don’t we cook at home every day and bring it over to eat?” He Hui thought of something and said.
Guan Dongshan hesitated and thought that would work.
After all, they were the ones disturbing Luo Cheng’s family, so it wasn’t convenient to build a stove over there.
Thus, the matter was settled.
Guan Kang already understood when he heard this.
“Father, do you want Brother Luo Cheng to protect me?”
Guan Dongshan nodded and touched his son’s head. “That’s right. The only person who can protect you now is your Brother Luo Cheng! When you grow up in the future, remember to repay this favor!”
Guan Kang nodded when he heard this.
“Father, don’t worry! I’ll remember Brother Luo Cheng’s kindness and will definitely repay him in the future!”
“That’s right. As expected of my son!” Guan Dongshan said firmly.
With the matter settled, the family could sleep in peace.
Early the next morning, Guan Dongshan brought his family and some clothes to the Luo family.
When Li Shun found out that the Guan family was going to live here in the future, he was immediately happy.
“Sigh, it’s good that you guys are living here. In the future, our place will be lively!”
“Sorry to disturb you guys!” Guan Dongshan said with a smile.
“What disturbance?! Come, let me bring you to the room!” Li Shun said happily.
“Father, bring Uncle Guan and the others to the west wing!” Li Xiaoran had chosen a room yesterday, so she mentioned it now.
“Okay!” Li Shun replied and brought Guan Dongshan and his family to the west room.
The west wing had a large room. It was more than enough for a family of three.
After all, Guan Dongshan’s family had just reunited with their son, Guan Kang, so it wasn’t a bad idea to let the family live together.
“Look, there’s a screen here that can be opened at night. It can be considered a separate room. If you need it, you can also put it away. You can also check on Guan Kang’s situation!” Li Shun explained the distribution of the room.
Guan Dongshan was quite satisfied with the arrangement. His son lived in a bed separated by a screen. Not far outside was the bed where the couple slept.
This way, even if anything happened to their son, they would know and be able to protect him immediately.
Guan Kang was also very satisfied with the residence. After all, he had some space to himself.
“Not bad. This room is wonderful! Thank you so much!” Guan Dongshan said gratefully.
“There’s no need to thank me. Put down your things first! The room has always been clean. You can stay in it after wiping it! Wait for me first. I’ll get water and clothes for you!” Li Shun said with a smile.
“I’ll go with you!” Guan Dongshan naturally wouldn’t let Li Shun do this alone, so he followed him out.
In the blink of an eye, only He Hui and Guan Kang were left in the room.
“Son, do you like it here?” He Hui looked around and turned around to ask.
“I love it!” Guan Kang said, nodding.
“It’s good that you like it! If you need anything, tell us. Don’t trouble Luo Cheng too much!” He Hui thought of something and reminded him.
“Mother, I know!” Guan Kang nodded, indicating that he understood.
After all, he had lived in someone else’s house in the past. He had long known what to do and what not to do.
When He Hui heard her son’s words and thought of his past experiences, her eyes immediately stung.
“Son, I’m sorry! I’m useless. I always let you live under someone else’s roof!”
When Guan Kang heard this, he immediately persuaded, “Mother, you can’t say that! If Brother Luo Cheng and the others heard this, they would be so disappointed! It’s already a huge favor that Brother Luo Cheng can protect me. We have to be grateful! Besides, we just moved in. If you say such things, you’ll seem ungrateful!”
