In the kitchen, Li Qingyin walked straight to Li Qingyu’s side. She wiped her hands and whispered, “Third Sister, Wenlin is out of danger. We are going back now.”

Li Qingyu turned around. “Why are you going back in such a hurry? You can go back after dinner.”

Li Qingyin said uneasily, “Third Sister, your family has already helped us so much. I-I’m too embarrassed.”

Li Qingyu patted Li Qingyin’s shoulder and smiled. “You’re my sister. What’s wrong with helping you? Don’t feel burdened.”

“Third Sister…” Li Qingyin lowered her head and cried.

Li Qingyu hurriedly hugged Li Qingyin with one hand and caressed her back. “Qingyin, don’t cry. It’s okay. The hard times will pass. I’ll ask Qingzhi later and see if she can give you any ideas to make money.”

Li Qingyin was very happy, but she still refused. “Third Sister, don’t trouble Qingzhi. She helped me a lot, but 1 didn’t do anything for her.”

Li Qingyu comforted, “She’s your niece. It’s fine to help.”

Li Qingyin felt bad.

All these years, only her Third Sister was willing to help her. Her parents only cared about their sons, Li Qinghu and Li Qingwu. If not for her Third Sister, she really did not if she could have survived.

Li Qingyu comforted her. “Alright, you’re already so old, yet you’re still crying like a child. Everyone will laugh at you.”

Li Qingyin smiled through her tears and said, “They laugh because they are jealous that 1 have such a good sister.”

Li Qingyu smiled and wiped Li Qingyin’s tears. “Go to the old house and get some firewood for me. It’s about to run out.”

She wanted to divert her sister’s attention. Seeing her sister cry, she also felt bad.

Li Qingyin replied readily, “I’ll go immediately.”

In Yunfei School.

After school was over, there would be an endless stream of students walking out.

The students were all wearing the same white uniform. The scene was very spectacular.

There were two locust trees planted at the entrance of the school. It was said that they were planted when the school was built. The tree was very lush and tall, with many branches and leaves. It looked green. Just by looking at these two trees, one could tell that the school had a long history.

The Marial Top Scorer, Jiang Zhaoyong, hurried his footsteps. “Chu Xuyuan, Chu Xuyao.”

The two of them were walking out when they heard the sound. They turned around…

Jiang Zhaoyong was in his early twenties. He had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes. His body was tall and lean, and he wore a black robe.

“Senior Brother, what’s the matter?” Chu Xuyuan was a little more outgoing. When the two brothers were together, it was usually Chu Xuyuan who spoke. Chu Xuyao was a man of few words.

Jiang Zhaoyong stuffed a box into Chu Xuyuan’s hand. “Take this back to your fourth sister.”

Chu Xuyuan quickly stuffed the box back into Jiang Zhaoyong’s hand and asked in confusion, “Why didn’t you go personally?”

Jiang Zhaoyong, a man, suddenly became shy. “1 just don’t have time.”

Chu Xuyuan mercilessly exposed Jiang Zhaoyong’s clumsy excuse. “In the entire school, you have the most free time.”

Jiang Zhaoyong negotiated. “If you guys can help me deliver it, I’ll teach you some moves.”

Chu Xuyuan was about to say something when Chu Xuyao stopped him. “Alright, we agree.”

After learning martial arts, not only could they protect themselves, but they could also fly around like Fifth Sister. How impressive would that be?

Chu Xuyuan turned to look at Chu Xuyao in surprise.

Chu Xuyao was calm and composed. He spread his hands at Jiang Zhaoyong. “Give it to me.”

Jiang Zhaoyong hurriedly placed the box in Chu Xuyao’s hand with both hands.

Chu Xuyao took the box and continued walking towards Fu Bao.

Chu Xuyuan quickly chased after him.

Jiang Zhaoyong rubbed his chin and looked at Chu Xuyao’s back thoughtfully.

When the two little fellows returned home, the house was lively.

The Chu family was gathered in the central room. There was also the village elder, the village chief, Matchmaker Chu, and some other elders.

“Grandfather, Grandmother, Father, Mother…” Chu Xuyuan rushed into the new house like a gust of wind. Chu Xuyao followed behind. His small body was very straight, as if he was standing against the wall. He had the aura of a gentleman.

Li Qingyu took the two children’s school bags and placed them in the room. Then, she introduced them to someone.

“Xuyuan, Xuyao, he’s Brother Yuting’s grandfather. Call him Grandpa Ning.”

The two children called out obediently, “Grandpa Ning.”

Grandpa Ning looked at the two children. “Good children. Your names are Xuyuan and Xuyao, right?”

The two of them said in unison, “Yes.”

“I prepared some greeting gifts for you.” Grandpa Ning took out two long boxes. “This is for you.” The others had already received their gift.

The two children did not take it. Instead, they looked at Li Qingyu, who nodded at them.

Seeing this, Grandpa Ning was even more satisfied with the upbringing of this family. Not only did they have many children, but they also taught them well. “Take it, boys. It’s not something expensive.”

Only then did the two children take the things. “Thank you, Grandpa Ning.”

Grandpa Ning had given them brushes. There were three different styles of brushes, and they were all the best ones. The two children liked them at a glance.

Li Qingyu patted the two children’s shoulders. “Go out and play. The adults still have something to talk about.”

The two children shook their heads in unison. “No, we have to listen too.” This concerned Second Sister’s future. How could they stay out of it?

Li Qingyu looked around. “Then go and get a stool to sit on.”

“No need. We’ll sit beside Grandpa Ning.” Chu Xuyuan and Chu Xuyao walked over and sat on both sides of Grandpa Ning. They had to see if Grandpa Ning really liked Second Sister. If he didn’t like her, Second Sister’s life in the future would be miserable.

Grandpa Ning thought that the two children found him approachable and was very happy. “Alright, you can stay and listen. One day, you will also have to find a wife and get married.”

When they heard this, they immediately felt embarrassed. Chu Xuyuan muttered, “We’re still young.”

Grandpa Ning laughed out loud. “You’re not young anymore. You’ll be ready to marry in ten years.”

Chu Xuyuan tugged at Grandpa Ning’s sleeve. “Grandpa Ning, let’s talk about Brother Yuting. Don’t mention us.”

Grandpa Ning smiled even more happily. The two boys were really fun.

“Alright, let’s talk about him.”

Seeing that the topic was no longer on them, the two children could not help but heave a sigh of relief. Marriage was still a long way off for them.

Grandpa Ning let out a low cough and pulled a serious face. “Brother Chu Tai, Sister-in-law, Chu Rong, Qingyu, the betrothal gifts are all in the box. You can open it and take a look. If you’re not satisfied, we can add more to it.”

Grandpa Ning gave Ning Yuting a look, and Ning Yuting went to open the box.

The betrothal gift was prepared according to the standard of the betrothal gift given by Tang Jinghong..
