Chapter 228

228 Li Xiaoqing’s Uniqueness

Thinking back, Li Xiaoqing usually did chores very effortlessly.

Thinking of this, Luo Cheng looked at Li Xiaoqing.

“Xiao Qing, after resting for a while, go pick up the millstone on the stone mill outside and see how many steps you can take.”

When Li Xiaoqing heard Luo Cheng’s words, she immediately pulled a long face.

!!

“Brother-in-law, are you punishing me because I ate too much?”

Luo Cheng was amused.

“I’m not punishing you! I’m just letting you try! Don’t worry, we have enough food at home. I’m not so poor that I have to limit my sister-in-law’s food intake!”

When Li Xiaoran heard Luo Cheng’s words, she looked at her sister and felt that Luo Cheng must have his reasons.

“Then try! I didn’t say that you have to pick it up. If you can pick it up, then try carrying it a few steps!”

When Li Xiaoqing heard her sister’s words, she felt that they made sense and nodded.

“Shall I try it now?”

“Don’t! Rest for 15 minutes first. You’ve just finished eating. If you exert force now, you might hurt your stomach!” Luo Ziyang quickly persuaded.

As a martial artist, he naturally knew when was the best time to practice martial arts.

For someone like Li Xiaoqing, it was very easy for her to hurt her stomach.

Li Xiaoqing nodded and sat back down to rest.

Fifteen minutes later, the dining table was cleaned. Everyone ran out to the courtyard to watch Li Xiaoqing try to pick up the millstone.

The dogs who had just eaten rice cakes also came over to join in the fun. They surrounded Li Xiaoqing to see her performance.

Li Xiaoqing actually didn’t believe that she could move the millstone herself.

After all, the millstone was made of stone and was very heavy.

Therefore, Li Xiaoqing took a deep breath and found two places. Then, she reached out and grabbed it tightly.

To everyone’s surprise, Li Xiaoqing easily picked up the millstone that looked heavy to others.

Even Li Xiaoqing had a look of disbelief on her face. She looked down at the millstone in her arms, her mouth agape!

“Don’t just stand there. Take the millstone to the big tree over there to take a look!” Luo Cheng didn’t seem surprised at all as he reminded her.

Li Xiaoqing took a deep breath and started walking with the millstone.

After taking a few tentative steps, Li Xiaoqing felt that it was quite easy, so she wasn’t as careful as before as she strode forward.

Just like that, everyone watched as Li Xiaoqing carried the stone millstone under the tree and walked back from under the tree. Then, she placed the stone millstone back.

“Father, Mother, Sister, look, I’m very strong! In the future, I won’t have to worry about being bullied. If anyone bullies me, I can definitely beat them!” Li Xiaoqing looked at her hands happily and said.

Li Shun didn’t react, nor did Zhao Xiu. Only Li Xiaoran looked at Luo Cheng.

“You know what’s going on?”

Luo Cheng nodded and explained, “I’ve seen some people who eat more than ordinary people and are stronger than ordinary people. Xiao Qing’s appetite is actually a little abnormal compared to normal children, so I suspected that she’s quite strong and used a millstone to test her! I didn’t expect her to be stronger than I expected! It seems that I have to find someone to touch her bones!”

Touch her bones? The Li family members looked incredulous.

“Will the person touching her bones be a man or a woman?” Li Shun asked without thinking.

“She’s an old lady, but she has a strange temper. I’m not confident that I can invite her over! To be honest, if this old lady is willing to teach Xiao Qing, that will be the greatest blessing in her life!” Luo Cheng said.

When Li Xiaoran heard this, she looked at Luo Cheng.

“Go. No matter what, since I have the chance, I have to try! No matter what, even if there’s only a slight chance, I’m willing to try!”

Luo Cheng understood Li Xiaoran’s determination and nodded.

“Sure, but I’ll bring you there after we get married!”

Li Xiaoran also knew that rushing things wouldn’t get her anywhere. In addition, it was the new year, so it indeed wasn’t a suitable opportunity.

Li Xiaoqing was a little confused. She only knew that she was very strong, so her sister and brother-in-law wanted to hire someone to teach her, but other than that, she didn’t understand what they were talking about.

Seeing the confusion in her daughter’s eyes, Zhao Xiu walked over and touched her head.

“If you don’t understand, don’t think about it. Let your sister help you make the decision! Actually, your brother-in-law is wrong. Your greatest blessing in life was meeting your sister!”

Li Xiaoqing understood Zhao Xiu’s words.

“Mother, you’re right. I’ll listen to you!”

After Li Xiaoqing’s strength shocked everyone, it quickly became Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran’s matter to handle.

The others went about their own business.

After all, it was New Year’s Eve today. After feasting, they should prepare lunch and the New Year’s Eve dinner.

Also, they were going stay up until midnight to celebrate, so they had to make some dumplings to eat.

If they were hungry while waiting, they could cook dumplings.

Zhao Xiu took some dates and copper coins. After washing them with hot water, she added them in the dumpling filling to see who would be lucky next year.

Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng didn’t say anything and followed them over for lunch.

The family really went all out for today’s meal.

Even Li Shun had learned how to make cold dishes.

This time, the cold dish wasn’t chameleon plants, but pork belly.

To be honest, Li Xiaoran was really stunned by her father’s cooking skills.

She really didn’t expect her father, who usually held a hoe in his hand, to make such a delicious pork belly dish.

If she had to describe her memories of her family in terms of dishes, then in the future, Li Xiaoran’s memories of her father would probably be this cold pork belly dish.

There was no rancid taste at all. It was spicy, delicious, and crispy.

Li Xiaoran really liked this dish.

“Dad, you’re amazing!” After Li Xiaoran tasted it, she gave her father a thumbs up.

Seeing this, Li Xiaoqing also gave Li Shun a thumbs up.

“Dad, you’re such a good cook!”

After being praised by his two daughters, Li Shun couldn’t stop smiling.

“If you girls like it, I’ll make it for you girls again!”

When Zhao Xiu saw her man’s happy expression, she smiled.

Actually, not to mention the two children, even she was surprised.

After being married to Li Shun for so many years, this was the first time she had eaten food cooked by her man!
