Lin Qin was actually very unwilling, but in the end, she still obediently followed Li Muyao and the others home. She wanted to settle the matter outside, but the passbooks were all at home, and only Lin Qin knew about it, so she could only come home and split them.
“Your father has always been in charge of the family’s money. He only handed it to me in the past five years. There are only two passbooks. One is 80,000 yuan, and the other is 50,000 yuan.
It’s a total of 130,000 yuan. If it’s divided into three portions, each portion will be 40,000 yuan. That’s an extra 10,000 yuan. I’m the mother, so I’ll take an extra 10,000 yuan.
“Then, we’ve also checked the dowry list your father left for the mooncakes. I’ll take out the 20,000 yuan that’s missing.
That would be 40,000 yuan for Ah Feng, 30,000 yuan for me, and 60,000 yuan for Li Muyao and her siblings.”
The number on the passbook was as much as Lin Qin had said. Lin Qin was unwilling, but she had promised her eldest son that she wouldn’t do anything.
She could only calmly split the money according to Li Muyao’s request. However, it seemed that there was nothing else in the house that Lin Qin could split apart from money.
Gritting her teeth, Lin Qin looked at Li Muyao and asked for the dowry that Li Muyao had promised her, ‘”We’ve already sorted out the passbooks at home. How much do you plan to give me as a dowry?
Li Muyao, you can earn money now. You earn more than 100,000 yuan a month. Shouldn’t you give me more?
At the very least, I gave birth to you and raised you to this age. I should at least give you 200,000 to 300,000 yuan, right?”
“Pfft! You’re dreaming. Are you sure you raised me? You have the nerve to say it, but I’m too embarrassed to listen! I was brought up by my father. How did it become your credit?
Besides, I’m an unmarried daughter, yet I’m giving a married mother a dowry of two to three hundred thousand yuan?
You’re the only one who has the nerve to take it. You’re really shameless!
“Of course, I’ve said it before, so I’ll do it. 20,000 yuan is your dowry. I still have to take care of Little Yu and Yang Yang in the future, unlike you. When you get married in the future, the two of us won’t have much to spend.
Tens of thousands of yuan is enough for your expenses. Besides, isn’t Li Mufeng here? And your future husband is here. Why is she, a woman, always thinking about spending her daughter’s money?Cheêck out latest novels at novelhall.comorrow, I’ll bring Little Yu and Yang Yang to Sun City. If there’s nothing important in the future, don’t contact us three siblings.”After Li Muyao finished speaking, she left the rest to her two younger brothers and dragged Huo Jiling out of the door.
Huo Jiling let Li Muyao lead him out. As they walked, Huo Jiling realized that they were on the way to Fen Mountain.
On the way up to her father’s grave, Li Muyao didn’t say a word to Huo Jiling. Instead, she knelt in front of her father’s grave and spoke softly. She was afraid that she would disturb her father’s peace if she spoke loudly.
As she spoke, Li Muyao’s tears started to flow down. Li Muyao cried for about 20 minutes before Huo Jiling followed her and knelt down beside her.
“Uncle Li, I’ll bring Mooncake, Little Yu, and Yang Yang to Sun City tomorrow. Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of Mooncake, Little Yu, and the other brothers, just like I promised you in the letter.
With me around, I won’t let anyone hurt the three siblings. We’ll come back to see you during the new year.”
Huo Jiling made a promise and kowtowed to Li Dajian’s monument. He took out a handkerchief and wiped Li Muyao’s tears. He held her hand and pulled her up, “Be good. Even if you cry, you have to smile happily from now on. Let’s go home. Otherwise, Xiao Yu and Yang Yang will be worried.”
“Okay, Huo Jiling, carry me home!”
Li Muyao had been kneeling for too long and couldn’t stand properly. She said in a hoarse voice after crying. After she climbed onto Huo Jiling’s back, she said, “”1 remember the first time I followed my father here to train. When I went home, my father carried me home like this.
Huo Jiling, if we’re going to register our marriage, you have to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau behind my back. Otherwise, I won’t marry you.”
When Li Muyao first learned martial arts from her father, it was really tough. She often cried and said that she wanted to give up and not learn. However, her father still ignored Li Muyao’s rejection or crying every day. He clearly looked distressed, but he still gritted his teeth and brought Li Muyao out to train.

Later on, Li Muyao no longer felt bitter or tired. The more she ran, the more relaxed she became. Li Muyao never let her father carry her again.
“Dad said that a man will walk step by step to the Civil Affairs Bureau behind his beloved woman’s back, and he will walk step by step towards happiness.
When her father and Lin Qin got married, her father had to carry her, but Lin
Qin didn’t want to..”
