Chapter 549: For the Child

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Ji Yuanyuan reached out and patted Li Miao’s shoulder, “Aunty, don’t worry. Our school isn’t far from your house. If you’re too busy, 1 can help you.”

With the space, it was fine for her to stay up a little longer at night.

Moreover, she did not reject children.

Li Miao was a little touched when she heard that, “Yuanyuan has grown up. You know how to feel distressed for other people.”

She turned to the side and whispered, “But you don’t have to worry about this. Aunt will think of a way.”

Ji Yuanyuan nodded in the darkness, “Okay!”

The two of them slept on the same bed as when they were young and fell asleep very quickly.

The next morning, Li Miao called home, planning to discuss the future.

After making the call, he found out that Liu Guihua and Li Xu were already on their way.

Li Miao originally wanted to wait until the later stages of her pregnancy before asking Liu Guihua to come over.

However, after Liu Guihua received the news yesterday, she couldn’t sleep well no matter how she thought about it. She hit it off with Li Xu.

Early this morning, they set off for B City.

Li Xu had a driver’s license, so she brought Liu Guihua here alone.

When Li Miao heard this, she was a little helpless, “It is only one month old, why would Mother and Big Sister come so eagerly for?”

Meng Xiaoning answered the phone with a smile and said, “Mother is also worried. This is your first child, so you have to be careful. Have you forgotten how difficult it was for me to give birth to my first child?”

Li Miao sighed, “That’s fine. It just so happens that the children are at my house today. Let’s have fun together at noon.”

After hanging up the phone, Li Miao instructed Gong Wenbai to go to the hotel to order dishes first.

The mother and daughter set off at eight o’clock in the morning. They would probably arrive at around one o’clock.

The two of them probably wouldn’t stop for a meal on the way. They probably took some biscuits, bread, and other snacks to eat.

He had to let them have hot food to eat when they reached home.

At around noon, a few of them also ate some snacks.

He was waiting for Liu Guihua and Li Xu to come and eat together.

The mother and daughter finally arrived at 1:30 p. m.

Ji Zi’ang stood at the living room window and saw the car downstairs. He immediately shouted, “Our mother has come to call.”

After shouting, he rushed out of the door and went downstairs.

The rest of the people also followed.

By the time Ji Yuanyuan got off the car, Ji Zi’ang was already standing beside the car, hugging Li Xu’s arm and acting coquettishly, “Mom, I miss you. Why didn’t you bring Dad along?”

Li Xu pushed him dotingly, “Do you miss me or your living expenses? You don’t have any money on you, right?”

Ji Zi’ang chuckled, “Mom, give me some more so that I can eat better in the coming days.”

Li Xu sighed and instructed, “Go and get your things first. Your grandmother brought a lot of things.”

When Ji Zi’ang heard this, he hurriedly followed Li Xu to the back.

Initially, he didn’t think much of it, wondering how many things the two of them could bring.

However, when he stood at the back, he was dumbfounded.

Not only was the trunk full of stuff, but the back of the car was also full of stuff.

Most importantly, they were all worthless items.

Tomatoes, melons, watermelons, eggplants, cabbages, beans…

There were even two live chickens.

“Grandma, where can’t we buy these things? Why did you bring it all the way from our hometown? Look at this pitiful chicken, it almost suffocated to death.” Ji Zi’ang poked the chicken in the box.

As expected, the two chickens looked sickly and did not move at all.

Liu Guihua picked up a bag of vegetables and put it on her back. She was about to go upstairs.

When Gong Wenbai saw it, he quickly took it, “Mother, don’t move. I’ll carry it. Miaomiao, you take Mother, Big Sister, and Yuanyuan home first. We’ll move the stuff.”

Li Miao went forward and held Liu Guihua’s hand, “Mother, let’s talk at home.”

However, Liu Guihua held Li Miao’s arm with her backhand, “You don’t have to worry about me. These vegetables were all from the greenhouse. They had just been picked in the morning and were very fresh. We didn’t apply any pesticide, so you’ll feel at ease eating it. You don’t even know what kind of pesticide they used on the vegetables outside.”

Li Miao was so touched that her eyes were a little red, “You guys have worked hard. It’s so far away.”

Li Xu stood on the other side of Li Miao and supported her. She smiled and said, “It’s just this one time. In a few days, we won’t have to work so hard.”

Li Miao was a little surprised, “What do you mean?”

Li Xu turned back to look at Ji Yuanyuan and said, “Your brother-in-law and I want to open a few branches here to test the waters. If business is good in the future, we’ll move the company here. When the branch opens, it’s necessary to send vegetables here. I’ll get someone to send some to you every day.”

Li Miao’s eyes widened, “Really? How did you think of coming here?”

Ji Yuanyuan was also a little surprised and looked at Li Xu with a puzzled expression.

Li Xu pretended to be depressed and sighed, “Why else? For the sake of the child. It’s really hard for me and your brother-in-law to get used to being the only ones left at home. When Zixuan and Zi’ang came over, it was still fine. This time, when Yuanyuan started school, our hearts really didn’t feel good. As parents, we will definitely be wherever our children are.”

“That’s right!” Liu Guihua nodded.

“When the child grows up and becomes successful, they will have a vast world in the future. They can’t be like when they were young, chasing after us, and we have to chase after them instead. There was no need to mention Yuanyuan. When she grew up and married Mucheng, she would definitely settle down here.”

“Mom…” Ji Yuanyuan interrupted Li Xu’s words and acted coquettishly in embarrassment.

Li Xu smiled and continued, “Zixuan will probably stay here too. He loves to study, and his future dream is to stay in school. It shouldn’t be a problem. As for Zi’ang, although he’s not as good as his brother and sister, with his father and 1 helping him, it shouldn’t be a problem for him to establish himself in B City.”

Li Miao listened and held Li Xu’s hand happily, “That’s good. If that’s the case, we sisters can meet often.”

As they spoke, a few of them had already entered the house.

Poor Gong Wenbai. He brought his two nephews and ran up and down several times before moving all the things that Liu Guihua and Li Xu brought upstairs from the car.

By the time they finished moving, it was already two o’clock.

Only then did the family sit down and start eating lunch.

Ji Zixuan and Ji Zi’ang were naturally very supportive of Li Xu and Zhang Kun’s plans to develop in B City.

“Mom, when are you moving in? When that time comes, 1 won’t stay in school anymore. 1’11 go home every day to eat and accompany the two of you.” Ji Zi’ang asked impatiently,

“What’s the hurry? That would depend on whether the business here was good or not. B City is not as good as W City. Your dad and I want to open a few branches before the new year and see how the turnover is. If it’s good, we’ll talk about it next year.”

When Ji Zi’ang heard this, he said in disappointment, “That will take a long time.”

The others really thought that Ji Zi’ang was homesick. Li Xu even comforted him, “This time, I’ll stay here for a few more days to inspect the location. We’ll go home together on National Day..”
