Chapter 168: Untitled
“Li Xiaojun, right? You can go home now. It’s getting late. Come back tomorrow.”
“Don’t worry, Shiyun will be fine,” the beautiful woman assured Li Xiaojun.
“Alright then, Auntie, I’ll head back,” Li Xiaojun nodded and then left.
Early the next morning, Li Xiaojun arrived at the She family, but was stopped by the gatekeeper.
Li Xiaojun pretended to be anxious to see She Shiyun, but his divine sense scanned the situation. Since yesterday, She Rujie had been discussing how to handle this matter with She Shiyun’s mother.
In the end, with the beautiful woman’s persuasion, She Rujie agreed to let She Shiyun be with Li Xiaojun.
However, She Rujie still felt a bit disgruntled, so he decided to keep Li Xiaojun waiting for a few days to let him worry a little.
Knowing the She family’s attitude, Li Xiaojun naturally played his part perfectly. Every day, he went to the She family, anxiously wanting to see She Shiyun.
Meanwhile, She Shihan finally learned about her sister She Shiyun and Li Xiaojun’s situation.
Upon hearing this, She Shihan cried loudly and scolded She Shiyun for not following martial ethics and stealing her man.
However, the boat had sailed; the raw rice had already been cooked. No matter what she said, it was too late.
Of course, this matter caused a stir throughout Xiaowan Village.
No one expected that She Shiyun and Li Xiaojun had quietly done something so significant.
Fortunately, the She family kept a tight lid on things, and no one dared to speak about Li Xiaojun and She Shiyun.
So, people in the village only knew that Li Xiaojun and She Shiyun were dating, but they did not know that She Shiyun was already pregnant.
Ultimately, for the sake of her daughter’s child and to keep family shame from spreading, She Rujie had to agree to marry his daughter to Li Xiaojun.
One week after they had their little quarrel, under the She family’s arrangements, Li Xiaojun married She Shiyun.
Their home was another place provided by She Rujie for the young couple, not Uncle Zeng’s old wooden house.
However, after marrying She Shiyun, Li Xiaojun also took Uncle Zeng to live in their new home.
Uncle Zeng was quite old, around seventy or eighty, and living alone was inconvenient.
Moreover, Li Xiaojun had previously promised to support Uncle Zeng, so he naturally couldn’t go back on his word.
If he abandoned Uncle Zeng just because he married She Shiyun, the villagers would surely criticize him. Time flew by, and one year passed in the blink of an eye.
In that year, She Shiyun gave birth to a daughter for Li Xiaojun.
Even though She Rujie didn’t like Li Xiaojun much, he still gave five acres of land and several farmhands to help plant the fifty acres of land as part of the dowry for his daughter.
“Sister, Brother-in-law, I’m here to see little Manman.”
One morning, as Li Xiaojun was getting ready to make food, She Shihan rushed in quickly.
“What are you doing here?” She Shiyun shot her a glare, not very pleased to see her sister.
Couldn’t she tell that her younger sister wasn’t here just to visit?
“Sister, I came to see little Manman, what’s wrong with that?” She Shihan ignored She Shiyun’s glare and quickly approached the baby crib, starting to play with Li Xiaojun and She Shiyun’s child—Li Ziman.
“She Shihan, you’re here! I’m just cooking, why don’t you join us for a meal?” Li Xiaojun peeked out from the kitchen.
“Sure, Brother-in-law,” She Shihan nodded with a smile.
“She just came here to mooch off food,” She Shiyun said irritably.
“Yeah, I’m here to mooch, who told Brother-in-law to be such a good cook?” She Shihan said proudly, not feeling ashamed at all.
“She Shihan, you’re already seventeen. Hurry up and find someone to marry, or you’ll come to my house every day and eventually drive us to bankruptcy with all the food you eat,” She Shiyun said to She Shihan in exasperation.
“I don’t want to get married! If I do, I want to marry Brother-in-law… someone like him.”
Upon hearing this, She Shiyun quickly walked up to She Shihan and quietly warned her, “She Shihan, don’t go too far! Brother Xiaojun is already your brother-in-law, you’re not allowed to have any ideas about him.”
“Sister, why are you so nervous? We’re good sisters, sharing happiness and hardships together. Don’t you trust me?” She Shihan looked innocent.
“I just don’t trust you,” She Shiyun glared at She Shihan.
She Shiyun felt no trust for her sister She Shihan. She secretly resolved to keep a close eye on Brother Xiaojun so that the two would have no chance to develop anything further.
