Chapter 205

205 Li Xiaoran’s Guilt

Old Madam Jin’s breakfast consisted of foods that were easy to digest.

Old Madam Jin’s breakfast consisted of foods like porridge and rice cakes.

Li Xiaoran loved meat buns, so Luo Cheng also bought a lot.

In addition, there were also some meatloaf and fried dough sticks, which Luo Cheng ate.

For some reason, Luo Cheng had been craving fried food recently.

Seeing Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng eating happily, Old Madam Jin also felt that her breakfast had become much more enjoyable. She drank two large bowls of porridge.

After breakfast, it was time to drink the medicine again.

This time, Old Madam Jin rested after drinking the medicine.

Before resting, Old Madam Jin reminded her.

“I’ll live here from now on! Don’t go to the Jin family’s house. I’ve already left the Jin family’s house! After the house in the village is built, I’ll move in. Before that, I’ll live in this rented house. There’s no one else here, and it’s not far from where you live. Come and visit me when you’re free!”

Li Xiaoran nodded and personally took care of Old Madam Jin.

After confirming that Old Madam Jin was asleep, Li Xiaoran called Mrs. Su aside.

“Mrs. Su, did Old Master Wei say anything about Grandmother’s health?”

Mrs. Su glanced at Old Madam Jin and pointed outside. Then the two of them walked out, leaving Haitang and Qiu Tang to take care of Old Madam Jin.

When they came out of the corridor, Mrs. Su said in a low voice, “Old Master Wei said that fortunately, the Bezoar Pills were fed in time, so the old lady is fine. She suffered very little damage. She just needs to recuperate for a while!”

Hearing this, Li Xiaoran finally felt at ease.

To be honest, Li Xiaoran felt a little guilty about what happened to Old Madam Jin yesterday.

After all, Old Madam Jin had fainted from anger because she wanted to acknowledge her as her granddaughter.

If not for her, Old Madam Jin wouldn’t have encountered such a thing.

She told Luo Cheng about the guilt in her heart. Luo Cheng promised with certainty that he would definitely save Old Madam Jin by feeding her the Bezoar Pills. He wouldn’t let anything happen to her.

It was because of this reason that Li Xiaoran felt a little more at ease.

Later in the evening, she received the news that Old Madam Jin had woken up safely. Li Xiaoran heaved a sigh of relief.

“It’s good that Old Madam Jin is fine! But why did you leave the Jin family?” Li Xiaoran recalled what Old Madam Jin had said previously and subconsciously asked, “If it’s because of me, there’s no need!”

Mrs. Su knew that Li Xiaoran was kind-hearted, so she was unwilling to let Old Madam Jin become enemies with her sons because of her. That was why she said this.

“Miss Ran, this actually isn’t your fault. Before you appeared, First Master, Second Master, and Third Master had already broken Old Madam’s heart. So, don’t blame yourself for all these things. Actually, no matter if Old Madam acknowledged you as her granddaughter or not, it would have eventually came to this. Old Madam was already heartbroken!” Mrs. Su said.

Actually, Li Xiaoran could clearly sense Old Madam Jin’s disappointment today.

This was because she sensed Old Madam Jin’s emotions, so Li Xiaoran accepted the box and treated Old Madam Jin with the same att.i.tude as before.

Because Li Xiaoran understood that what Old Madam Jin yearned for the most at this moment was the sincerity of her juniors.

“Miss Xiaoran, the old lady really likes you. Come over more often in the future. You don’t know, but every time she goes to your stall to eat knife-cut noodles, the old lady is the happiest!” Mrs. Su thought of something and said.

When Li Xiaoran heard this, her eyes lit up.

“I understand! Mrs. Su, go back and take care of Old Madam Jin first! Don’t prepare lunch for Old Madam Jin today. I’ll go buy some ingredients and make a bowl of noodles for Grandma! Don’t worry, Grandma will definitely eat the noodles I make!”

With that, Li Xiaoran left with Luo Cheng.

After leaving the house, Luo Cheng looked at Li Xiaoran.

“You’re finally relieved?”

Li Xiaoran smiled and nodded, then looked at Luo Cheng.

“Husband, let’s go to the market to take a look! I like the feeling of going to the market!”

Since Li Xiaoran had made a request, Luo Cheng naturally agreed.

Anyway, he had nothing to do now. He treated it as accompanying his wife out for a walk.

It had to be said that the lively market immediately dispelled Li Xiaoran’s bad mood.

Everyone at the marke was choosing their favorite ingredients, and the sounds of people bargaining sounded in Li Xiaoran’s ears.

Looking at everything in front of her with a smile, Li Xiaoran’s mood improved.

“You like this kind of market?”

“Yes, a market like this is the most beautiful place in the world. Look, from the people here, you can see the changes in life!” Li Xiaoran pointed at the people in the market and said.

“Look, the little boy in the corner. His face is filled with hesitation. He wants to shout but doesn’t dare to. It’s obvious that this is his first time selling something. However, he will definitely be brave enough to take the step and shout!”

As soon as Li Xiaoran finished speaking, the little boy Li Xiaoran was referring to seemed to have made up his mind. As expected, he shouted at the top of his lungs.

“Come and take a look. There’s fresh and juicy fruits!”

Hearing this, Li Xiaoran laughed.

“Look, I see courage here!”

With that, Li Xiaoran looked to the other side and pointed at an old woman. “Look at her. She looks fierce, but she sells the best vegetables with the fiercest att.i.tude.”

Luo Cheng looked over and saw an old woman grab a young woman and put a handful of vegetables in her basket.

“When you walked over just now, you looked at my vegetables with disdain. You must think that my vegetables are not tasty. I’ll let you try my vegetables today to let you know that my dishes are the best!”

The young woman heard this and looked at the vegetables in the basket. Her eyes reddened.

“Thank you, Aunt Cai!”

“Who needs you to thank me?! Let me tell you, no one dares to look down on the food I plant. You’re the first. Hurry up and go back and cook it to prove that the food I plant is the best!” Aunt Cai said with a threatening expression.

At the same time, an old man pa.s.sing by Luo Cheng sighed and said, “Sister Cai is always like this. She’s clearly kind-hearted and wants to help others, but she has to pretend to be fierce!”

As soon as he said this, Li Xiaoran looked at Luo Cheng and blinked at him.

She was right!

Luo Cheng smiled and held Li Xiaoran’s hand as they entered the market to enjoy the wonderful atmosphere.
