Chapter 567: Enlightened Zhao Xiu
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
As Li Xiaoran briefly explained Luo Cheng’s background, Li Shun and Zhao Xiu felt very saddened.
Zhao Xiu said sadly, “In the past, I only thought that my son-in-law was the son of a rich family, so he was kicked out of the family. I didn’t expect my son-in-law to be a prince. Sigh, as the saying goes, princes are indeed very pitiful!”
Li Shun said, “That’s right. The emperor is a good emperor, but he’s not a good father! He knows his mistake now, but it’s not too late to repair the father-son relationship!”
Li Xiaoran only nodded aloofly and didn’t say anything.
The father and son of the royal family were different from ordinary father and son.
Other than kinship, the royal family also had many other complicated factors. Li Shun was too naive.
But on second thought, she herself had been too naive previously as well!
She really thought that it would be better for the emperor and Luo Cheng to ease their relationship.
In fact, when benefits were involved, Luo Cheng was still the one who was abandoned.
Of course, it was impossible for her to say these words to her parents.
Li Xiaoran explained, “By the way, I also brought a lot of good things for Grandpa and Grandma. The herbs in the capital are more well-stocked, so I bought a lot of herbs and asked my husband to make pills that are beneficial for old people. Taking these pills every day can prevent old people from getting sick. For example, old people who have blood clots on their bodies will feel better after taking them!”
Speaking of this, Zhao Xiu immediately nodded and said, “This thing is very beneficial. This has been happening to your granny recently, but she won’t go to see a doctor. She even said that she would be fine after taking some medicine to improve blood circulation, but she hasn’t improved even until now! ”
Li Xiaoran said anxiously, “Then I’ll go see Grandma now! Send this medicine over and let her take it once! Those elders in the capital said that the effect is very good after taking this pill once!”
At the mention of going to her house to see her parents, Zhao Xiu immediately remembered what had happened.
In order not to let her daughter get caught in the crossfire, Zhao Xiu hesitated for a moment before finally deciding to tell her what had happened some time ago.
When Li Xiaoran heard this, she didn’t show any anger. Instead, she nodded calmly.
“Mother, I understand! Don’t worry about me. I know how to handle it! As for Second Uncle’s matter, since they think that you’re being nosy, don’t worry about them in the future! If Second Uncle makes a mistake and lets Eldest Cousin marry Miss Hu, he’ll regret it in the future! Your identity is different now. You’re the Seventh Prince’s mother-in-law. Who will dare to anger you? So, you don’t have to feel burdened. If you want to go back and see my grandfather and grandmother in the future, go ahead. You don’t have to mind anyone’s attitude. Now, others have to be mindful of your attitude!”
Zhao Xiu burst out laughing.
To be honest, Zhao Xiu thought that Li Xiaoran would complain and say that she shouldn’t interfere in these things, like Xiao Qing did.
Since her eldest daughter didn’t complain about anything, Zhao Xiu felt at ease and began to reflect on herself.
“What are you talking about? I’m really not that kind of person. Speaking of which, I was indeed too nosy. I thought that since we’re siblings, I should go and help. Now, I’ve already figured it out. Every family has its own rules, so I shouldn’t have interfered too much. I’ll just show my filial piety to your grandfather and grandmother!”
Li Xiaoran said with a smile, “It’s good that you think that way. Now, you just have to follow me to Grandpa and Grandma’s house! Let me make you proud!”
Zhao Xiu nodded and packed her things happily before going to see her parents.
As Li Shun watched from the side, he secretly gave his eldest daughter, Li Xiaoran, a thumbs up.
“Daughter, you’re the best. You helped your mother overcome this trouble so easily! Your mother has been unhappy for the past few days because of this!”
Li Xiaoran said, “It’s not that I’m impressive, but that my perspective and mentality are different!”
Soon, the family of three carried their things to the Zhao family’s home.
Zhao Huaishan and Xu Xiufang smiled when they saw their daughter, son-in-law, and granddaughter come over with a large pile of things.
When Li Xiaoran saw the two elders, she shouted from afar, “Grandpa, Grandma, I’m back from the capital to see you two!” Zhao Long and Zhao Liang heard Li Xiaoran as well.
Seeing this, the brothers walked over from their houses.
At this moment, Li Xiaoran, Zhao Xiu, and Li Shun had already arrived at the Zhao family’s door.
Xu Xiufang sized up Li Xiaoran and said, “You’re looking prettier and prettier. It seems that the soil in the capital nurtures people!”
Li Xiaoran said with a smile, “Grandma, you’re wrong! Although the capital is very big and prosperous, the air is dry and uncomfortable. After I went to the capital, I missed everything in my hometown!”
Zhao Huaishan said, “Of course home is the best!”
On the other side, Zhao Long and Zhao Liang also came over to greet them.
Zhao Long asked with a smile, “Xiaoran, you’re back? It’s good that you came back safely!”
Zhao Liang said with a smile, “That’s right. You’ve lost a lot of weight, so you have to nourish yourself properly after you come back!”
Li Xiaoran greeted them with a smile, “Eldest Uncle, Second Uncle!”
Seeing that Li Xiaoran’s attitude towards him had not changed, Zhao Long felt a little more at ease.
Zhao Huaishan said, “Alright, don’t stand outside. Let’s go in and talk!” Hence, the group entered the two elders’ house together.
After Li Xiaoran and the others placed the things on the table in the main hall, they began to chat.
“I brought some things back from the capital to show my filial piety to Grandpa and Grandma. Other than fabrics and some rare gadgets, these pills are also very valuable!” Li Xiaoran said as she took out the pills.
Zhao Huaishan originally wanted to refuse, but since Li Xiaoran explained, he could no longer refuse.
This was because the pills Li Xiaoran brought back were really what they needed.
“Mother, this is for treating the blood clot on your foot. Hurry up and take a few pills first to relieve your pain!” Zhao Xiu quickly took out the medicine Li Xiaoran had mentioned.
When Xu Xiufang heard this, she took the pill and placed it in her mouth. Then, she drank a glass of cold water.
Xu Xiufang said, “Old man, look at how we’re enjoying our granddaughter’s filial piety.. We’re so lucky!”
