The next day, it was raining.

Li Xiaoran put on a jacket and walked out to see her mother wiping Big Yellow’s fur with a handkerchief.

“Mother, did Big Yellow run out?” Li Xiaoran asked.

“That’s right. When I woke up in the morning, I saw that Big Yellow was wet. Perhaps he had patrolled the courtyard at night, so he got himself wet. I got a handkerchief to wipe him clean. The weather is a little cold now, so I can’t even help Big Yellow take a bath now!” Zhao Xiu replied as she wiped Big Yellow’s fur.

Seeing this, Li Xiaoran also took a handkerchief and walked forward to wipe Big Yellow’s fur.

Big Yellow seemed glad to be dry again. It grinned and stuck out its big tongue.

“Big Yellow and the other pups have it the hardest! They have to guard the house every day and patrol at night!” Zhao Xiu said as she wiped.

Big Yellow seemed to understand Zhao Xiu’s words and barked, as if it was agreeing with her.

Seeing this, Li Xiaoran couldn’t help but laugh.

“What are you laughing at?” Zhao Xiu looked at Li Xiaoran and asked. “Mother, I think you seem to be treating Big Yellow like a son!” Li Xiaoran teased.

“Isn’t Big Yellow like our son? Big Yellow is much better than the sons of many people in the village! Uncle Zhang’s son, who went out to do business, has finally returned. He left for two to three years. Now that he’s finally back, he brought a woman back and said that they’ve already gotten married out of town.” Zhao Xiu thought of something and said.

“Isn’t it a good thing that their son came back with his wife?” Li Xiaoran asked in confusion.

“It would be good if she was a normal person, but Uncle Zhang’s son brought back a mental r.e.t.a.r.d. Do you think Uncle Zhang and his wife can tolerate it?” Zhao Xiu told her all the inside information.

“Mental r.e.t.a.r.d? How can that be?” Li Xiaoran frowned and asked in confusion, “What’s Mr. Zhang’s son after?”

“Who knows?!” Zhao Xiu shook her head, indicating that she couldn’t understand either. “Anyway, it’s their family’s matter, so we should just listen. We can’t possibly go and ask around just because we’re curious! Wouldn’t that offend them?”

When Li Xiaoran heard this, she felt that it made sense, so she didn’t take it to heart.

At that moment, a cow bleated outside.

Li Xiaoran quickly ran out.

Luo Cheng had rushed back at this time.

As expected, Luo Cheng came back with an ox cart full of things. When he saw Li Xiaoran running out, he smiled at her.

“I was lucky today. I happened to b.u.mp into someone selling fresh river prawns at the market. Because they were black market goods, the seller came early. I happened to see him, so I bought all the prawns!” As Luo Cheng spoke, he carried a wooden bucket down.

Li Xiaoran quickly walked over to take a look. After she opened the lid of a wooden bucket, she saw a bucket of fresh prawns.

“These shrimp look really good. It’s alive!” With that, Li Xiaoran quickly closed the lid. “I’ll bring this bucket of shrimp to the kitchen first!”

Luo Cheng nodded, then carried other things down from the ox cart and

followed Li Xiaoran into the kitchen.

“I’ve sent the ingredients to the shop. Yuan Cheng and Gao Chen carried the other things into the storage room together. The rest are for our house. Other than prawns, I bought other things. I’ll carry them in later. Help me store them!” Luo Cheng said, “After breakfast, don’t go to the shop. I still have something to ask you for help with!”

“Alright, I understand!” Li Xiaoran nodded. After putting down the wooden bucket containing the prawns, she quickly went to wash up.

When Li Shun and Luo Ziyang heard the commotion, they quickly came out to help move the things.

When Zhao Xiu saw that the rest of her family had gotten out of bed, she quickly washed the handkerchief and hung it under the roof to dry. Then, she washed her hands and went to cook.

“Mother, I remember that you used the extra flour to make wraps a few days ago. Why don’t we use them to make spring rolls today?!” Li Xiaoran thought of something and said.

Zhao Xiu thought of something and said with a smile, “The bean sprouts from a few days ago are probably still edible. Take them out and stir-fry them. They’ll probably taste good with spring rolls!”

“Then I’ll go cut the chives! There is a saying that the first batch of chives in spring is the best. The chives can be stir-fried or placed in spring rolls!” Li

Xiaoqing, who had just washed up, walked in and heard their conversation.

“Alright, I’ll peel a few potatoes and cook the shredded potatoes before adding them to the rolls!” Li Xiaoran said with a smile.

There were usually two ways to eat spring rolls.

For the lighter version of spring rolls, they would wrap the stir-fried vegetables with some spring onions.

There was also another method, which was to wrap the vegetables and fry them.

The spring rolls were fried into a golden crisp. When one bit into it, one could taste the crispness of the spring roll and the taste of the several dishes inside.

Li Xiaoran liked both ways of eating spring rolls.

After breakfast, Li Xiaoran watched her family go to the shop.

“Mother, I left some wontons with Yuan Cheng yesterday. I’ll cook them for everyone today! I mean what I say. Don’t forget!” Li Xiaoran thought of something and reminded her.

“Don’t worry, I understand! I’ll cook it for everyone when we get to the shop!” Zhao Xiu replied.

“There’s delicious food? Then I’ll tag along to get some free food today! I feel stiff all over after making furniture at home all day. If I go to the shop today to stretch my muscles, I might be able to make better furniture tomorrow!” For some reason, Li Shun, who usually locked himself in the house to make furniture, took the initiative to go to the shop to work.

Li Xiaoran naturally didn’t object and let her father make the decision himself.

After sending them off, Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng went to the study and sat down to talk.

“Wife, there’s something that Luo Han and I can’t do, so we need your help.

Why don’t you help me see if there’s a way to resolve it?”

When Li Xiaoran heard this, she was immediately interested.

Luo Cheng didn’t hide anything. He told her about the silver ingots and his guess.

When Li Xiaoran heard this, she had a strange feeling.

“Husband, why do you think those people are targeting you? I can understand if they’re targeting Luo Han, but what about you? Haven’t you already separated from your family? Even if someone is targeting your clansmen, they should find someone else to scheme against.. Why did they set you up?”
