When the others in the courtyard heard this, they also congratulated him.
Li Xiaoqing pulled Zhao Sisi to the side and said with a smile, “Looks like with Grandpa around, you’re in luck! I really didn’t expect you to get married earlier than me!”
Zhao Sisi was immediately amused by Li Xiaoqing’s teasing.
“You can get married if you want! I can let you get married first, but you have to find a man first!”
“I want to, but there’s no suitable candidate!” Li Xiaoqing shrugged and said, “If
I get married, those people won’t be able to harass me!”
When Zhao Sisi heard Li Xiaoqing’s words, she thought of something.
“Are you really going to find a man to marry into your family?”
Li Xiaoqing looked at Zhao Sisi. “Do you think I’m lying to you?”
“That’s not what I meant. Actually, you’ve always had a good candidate by your side. It’s just that you haven’t realized it yet.” Zhao Sisi said.
Li Xiaoran said with resistance, “Good candidate? Who? Don’t tell me you’re talking about Yuan Cheng? That won’t do. I don’t like people like him! He’s too meek. If I’m bullied in the future, he won’t be able to help me. He can’t even outargue other people!”
Zhao Sisi almost rolled her eyes when she heard Li Xiaoqing’s words.
“I’m talking about the people around you, the people around you, the people around you! Sigh, you’re so stupid! If you can’t think of it, forget it!”
With that, Zhao Sisi left Li Xiaoqing and went to Xu Xiufang’s side.
Li Xiaoqing looked at Zhao Sisi suspiciously and muttered, “Among the people around me? The only person I know is Yuan Cheng! Who else could it be?”
Luo Cheng and Luo Ziyang naturally heard the commotion.
Luo Cheng looked at Luo Ziyang and said with a smile,
“Did you see that? At least Mao Dao knows to fight for his happiness! You!
You’re really embarrassing me!”
When Luo Ziyang heard Luo Cheng’s words, he immediately blushed. “Buddy, you can’t say that! This is different!”
“What’s the difference? If you’re a man, you have to woo your woman! If you can’t, I’m really going to doubt your abilities!” Luo Cheng teased.
When Luo Ziyang heard Luo Cheng’s words, he glanced at Li Xiaoqing. No one knew what he was thinking.
Li Xiaoqing couldn’t think of anything, so when Li Xiaoran went to the kitchen to see if the peanuts were cooked, she followed her in.
Li Xiaoran told her what Zhao Sisi had said previously and asked in confusion, “Sister, who do you think the person Sisi is talking about is? Who else can it be other than Yuan Cheng?”
When Li Xiaoran saw that the boiled peanuts in the pot were ready, she looked at Li Xiaoqing as she took the basket and ladle.
“Then why don’t you think about who’s around you?”
When Li Xiaoqing heard her sister’s words, she said, “Other than our family and the shop, who else is around me? Don’t tell me you’re talking about my savior? He’s no good. To be honest, I’m starting to dislike him more and more! Other than him, the only person beside me is Yuan Cheng. Gao Chen, who is old enough to be my uncle, is even more impossible!”
Seeing that her sister hadn’t thought of it yet, Li Xiaoran immediately shook her head, but she didn’t speak.
Li Xiaoqing racked her brains.
At this moment, Luo Ziyang walked in.
“Madam, Luo Cheng asked me to see if the peanuts are ready. If they are, I’ll help you pack them up and bring them outside for everyone!”
Li Xiaoqing was thinking about the people around her when she suddenly saw Luo Ziyang walking in.
He was dressed in green and his upright figure made him look very handsome.
Why hadn’t she realized that Ziyang was so good-looking in the past?
The more she looked at his bold eyebrows, rosy lips, and handsome face, the more her heart fluttered.
At this moment, Zhao Sisi’s words appeared in her mind again.
Looking at Luo Ziyang, who was getting closer and closer to her, Li Xiaoqing immediately felt thirsty.
“I’m a little thirsty, so I’ll go drink some water now!” Li Xiaoqing rushed to the kettle to pour water.
When Luo Ziyang saw Li Xiaoqing running to the place where the kettle was placed, he asked curiously, “Xiao Qing, what’s wrong?”
Li Xiaoqing replied in a panic, “No, no, it’s nothing! Perhaps I spoke too much previously, so I suddenly felt thirsty!”
In the past, she didn’t feel anything special when she heard Luo Ziyang call her ‘Xiao Qing’.
However, hearing him call her ‘Xiao Qing’ today made her heart flutter. She wanted to hear Luo Ziyang call her ‘Xiao Qing’ again.
After Li Xiaoqing came to her senses, she was shocked by her thoughts.
When did she develop feelings for Brother Ziyang?
After realizing this, Li Xiaoqing felt her face flush and she choked on the water in her mouth.
“Cough cough cough!” Li Xiaoqing coughed.
Luo Ziyang was a little worried. Seeing that Li Xiaoqing’s face was a little red, he quickly walked over.
“Xiao Qing, what’s wrong? Why is your face so red? Do you have a fever?” As Luo Ziyang spoke, he reached out and patted Li Xiaoqing’s forehead.
That large hand felt cold on Li Xiaoqing’s forehead.
Because they were very close, Li Xiaoqing could even sense a very stable and comfortable aura coming from that big hand.
Xiaoqing was captivated by this feeling and didn’t want it to end.
“It’s not that hot, so why is your face so red? Did you bask in the sun previously?!” Luo Ziyang didn’t notice Li Xiaoqing’s abnormality. “I made an ointment here to treat flushing caused by too much sun exposure. Hurry up and apply it. Your skin will recover tomorrow morning!”
Not daring to look at Luo Ziyang, Li Xiaoqing grabbed the bottle of ointment and ran away.
Luo Ziyang was immediately disappointed when he saw this scene.
Why wouldn’t Xiao Qing look at him? Was he that scary-looking?
Or did she dislike him?
Or had Xiao Qing really fallen for someone else?
At the thought of this possibility, Luo Ziyang felt anxious..
