Chapter 243 - 243 Li Shun's Promise

243 Li Shun’s Promise
People were usually emotionally sensitive when sick.
In addition, her daughter, who she had missed for so long, was finally back, so Xu Xiufang cried happily.
Zhao Xiu hadn’t returned to visit her parents all these years, so she felt very guilty. Therefore, she vented the guilt in her heart through crying.
After the two of them were done venting, Li Xiaoran and Li Xiaoqing walked forward and supported one person each.
“Grandma, Mom, if you continue crying, the food we made will get cold!” Li Xiaoran smiled and reminded her, “Grandma, the food I cooked is delicious. You have to try it this time!”
When Xu Xiufang heard Li Xiaoran’s words and saw her granddaughter supporting her, realization suddenly dawned upon her.
“Is this Xiaoran?”
“Yes! I’m Xiaoran! I’m so sad that Grandma only saw me now!” Li Xiaoran pretended to be sad.
“I was wrong!” Xu Xiufang smiled and said, “But you’ve changed too much. In the past, you used to be so quiet. Now, you’re much better!”
“Mother, it’s a long story. Let’s eat first!” Zhao Xiu said.
Xu Xiufang nodded, then called the others to the table and sat down. Everyone ate together.
Because she considered the two elders’ preferences and their lack of teeth when she cooked, most of the dishes on this table were easy to chew.
Even the chicken claws had already been roasted until they were soft and boneless. It was easy to chew them.
Zhao Huaishan and Xu Xiufang liked the food very much.
“This is the first time I’ve eaten such delicious chicken feet! I didn’t expect chicken feet to be able to taste so delicious!” Zhao Huaishan ate the chicken feet while drinking and was filled with satisfaction.
“This tofu is also delicious. It’s a little different from the tofu we usually eat!” Xu Xiufang kept praising as she ate a piece of tofu.
“Grandma, this is called cabbage and tofu medley. It’s made of cabbage and tofu. It’s nutritious and delicious. This dish is really suitable for when the weather is cold. It’s very warming!” Li Xiaoran smiled as she introduced.
“That’s right. This tofu tastes delicious! Sister, make this dish again at home in the future. I like it too!” Li Xiaoran expressed her fondness as she ate the tofu.
“Alright! But we have to make our own tofu!” Li Xiaoran smiled and nodded.
“Hey, who is this gud? He looks handsome. Why is he here?” As they ate, Xu Xiufang suddenly noticed Luo Cheng, who was sitting beside Li Xiaoran, and asked curiously.
Everyone was amused by this.
Luo Cheng swallowed the food in his mouth and then put down his chopsticks.
“Grandma, I’m your grandson-in-law, Luo Cheng, and also Xiaoran’s husband!”
When Xu Xiufang heard this, she stopped eating and immediately looked at her daughter and son-in-law.
“When did Xiaoran get married? Why didn’t you call someone to inform us?”
“Mom, it’s a long story. Let’s eat first. We’ll talk after we eat!” Zhao Xiu didn’t want to mention what the Li family had done, so she quickly picked up a piece of tofu for Xu Xiufang and coaxed her.
Xu Xiufang looked at the tofu in her bowl and then at her grandson-in-law. After some hesitation, she finally chose the delicious food in her bowl.
Sigh, she was old and couldn’t afford to be stimulated, so she had to eat her fill first!
Even if she was shocked later, at least she had eaten her fill. She couldn’t go hungry!
With this thought in mind, Xu Xiufang focused on eating.
After lunch, Li Xiaoran, Li Xiaoqing, and Luo Cheng cleaned the dining table together and went to wash the dishes.
Li Shun and Zhao Xiu led their parents to the courtyard outside.
After the four of them sat down, they briefly explained what had happened.
“Father-in-law, Mother-in-law, I’ve owed Xiu’er and the children too much all these years! I’ve also realized my mistake! Don’t worry, I’ll definitely work hard in the future and earn a lot of money so that Xiu’er and the children won’t suffer with me anymore!” Li Shun knelt down to the two elders and said what was on his mind.
Zhao Huaishan and Xu Xiufang looked at their son-in-law with red eyes.
“I knew it. My good daughter married the wrong person! Back then, I saw that you were honest and down-to-earth, so I married my daughter to you! Turns out that you were too honest and down-to-earth! All these years, every time Xiu’er came back, she didn’t say anything, but she looked mentally and physically exhausted. We just thought that it was because your family was poor that my daughter looked so haggard!” Xu Xiufang said as she hugged Zhao Xiu with heartache.
“You wretched girl, you didn’t even come back to tell me that you had suffered so much! I’m still here and can stand up for you! Even if I’m gone, don’t you still have your two younger brothers?! Why did you let that old witch from the Li family torment you for so long?”
Zhao Xiu let her mother scold her while she wiped her tears.
It wasn’t that she didn’t want to say it, but she couldn’t.
With the Li family’s way of doing things, her parents or two younger brothers would only support her for a while. After her parents and younger brother left, her family’s life would be even more difficult. If she really wanted to leave the Li family, she would have to divorce Li Shun.
However, when she thought of her two daughters and the man who was considered considerate to her, Zhao Xiu couldn’t bear to let go.
Just like that, the days passed day by day.
If not for the incident where her daughter acted as a marriage substitute, Zhao Xiu didn’t know how long she would have lasted.
“Get up! The two of us won’t say anything more about the past! After all, the things of the past are in the past! Li Shun, in the future, you have to be like a man and protect your wife and daughters! If you’re still as cowardly as before, I’ll take my daughter and granddaughters away and let you live alone!” Zhao Huaishan thought for a moment and said earnestly, “The daughter we doted on and raised wasn’t sent to your family to be trampled on!”
“By the way, Xiaoran, forget about this matter. It was a blessing in disguise. In the future, you have to deal with Xiao Qing’s marriage carefully. If something similar happens again, I’ll personally teach you two a lesson with the bamboo stick!” Zhao Huaishan said with a dark expression.
“Father-in-law, Mother-in-law, don’t worry. I promise with my life that I will dote on my wife and daughter in the future and protect them so that they won’t suffer anymore!”
