General, the lady escaped again

Chapter 8: Repaying a favor with a meal (2)

"That's really lucky." Old Man Li's son said with shining eyes, "My name is Li Hao. I am three years older than you. I heard from mother that you also prepared it for my wife. This is good for my wife and son. I want to thank you on behalf of my wife."

"Brother Li, don't be polite. If it weren't for Aunt Li's meal yesterday, I might be dead now." Aunt Ji's words made Old Man Li nod his head with satisfaction, knowing that this girl was a good person who knew how to repay a favor.

"Okay, don't be polite. Today, I, Old Man Li, have made my words clear. From now on, you will live with us. If we have a bite to eat, you will have a bite too." Old Man Li said directly. He had a good eye for people. He knew that the Liu family was a bunch of scoundrels. He also knew that the Ji family was not a good thing. They were not good people if they could sell their daughter for one or two taels of silver.

This girl is pitiful, but she is a kind person with a good heart. She lives so close to him, so a pair of chopsticks is not a big deal.

"That's a good idea. I like this girl too. Girl, let's make it a deal. I agree with your uncle." Aunt Li said while Ji Xiaowu was stunned, and Li Hao nodded. "I agree too. You will be my sister from now on. Don't be polite to your family."

"...This, you guys..." Ji Xiaomu's eyes were slightly red. She really didn't know what to say. This person, whom she had just met, showed her such great kindness. Even if it was just a joke, she appreciated the kindness.

"Girl, I don't have much stuff, but I have enough food to eat." Old man Li knew that it might not sound true, but he had been observing people all his life, and he could tell at first glance that this girl was kind-hearted.

It's just one more mouth to feed. It's not like the family can't afford food. Old man Li can afford to feed them.

"I've been married to you for so many years, and this is the first time you've said something that touches my heart so well." Aunt Li was also satisfied. She had seen all kinds of women in the village, but it was rare to see someone like Ji Xiaowu who would move big fish to her house just for a little bit of food. It was obvious that this girl really cared about her Li family.

"Yeah." No words could express Ji Xiaomu's current mood. This was the first time she experienced the feeling of someone suddenly caring for her.

"Okay, okay, let's eat." Old man Li said with a smile, inviting everyone to eat.

Ji Xiaowu specially served the fish soup and dishes for Li Hao's wife and placed them in front of Aunt Li. "Aunt, this is my sister-in-law's soup. You can add some rice to it so that she can eat with the soup. This is better. This is another dish for her. I heard that women who have just given birth cannot eat too much salt. I didn't add much salt here."

"This child is so thoughtful." When Aunt Li saw this, she knew that this was something that Aunt Ji had specially reserved for her daughter-in-law. She nodded with emotion and gave it to her daughter-in-law.

When Aunt Li came out, she couldn't stop smiling. Her daughter-in-law's eyes lit up after taking a sip and she drank half a bowl of soup in the blink of an eye. It can be seen that the soup tasted really good.

Except for Ji Xiaomu who ate slowly, everyone else couldn't help but pick up more dishes after taking a bite. There was no free time in their mouths, and they were unwilling to waste even a word.

"Oh my god! I'm so full!" After everyone had eaten their fill, Li Hao just lay on the chair, his belly bulging. It was the first time he had eaten so much that he was full...

“Don’t mention it. This is the first time I’ve eaten such delicious food in my entire life…” Aunt Li also had a deep realization. She felt like all she had eaten before was pig food. How could she have the confidence that her cooking was delicious?
