The Hunter’s Lucky Little Lady - Chapter 271
271 Li Shun’s Secret
With this in mind, Li Shun already had his own plan.
That night, after washing up, Li Shun and Zhao Xiu lay in bed.
“Wife, let’s move out with Xiao Qing! We can have our own small family, even if the living condition is a little worse!”
Zhao Xiu didn’t expect her man to bring this up.
!!
“Actually, I’ve thought of moving out as well! My daughter and son-in-law are filial, but I still feel that this isn’t our home!”
Zhao Xiu also said what was on her mind.
“If we can have our own home, it doesn’t matter if the house is shabbier. Also, it’s better for Xiaoran to get married from her own home!”
Li Shun nodded in agreement. After thinking for a moment, he said, “It’s too late to build a house now, and there’s no suitable old house in the village to buy. Besides, we don’t have any money on hand. We have to think of a way to earn money ourselves first!”
Zhao Xiu frowned and let out a long sigh.
That’s right. The most difficult problem for them now was that they didn’t have much money.
Some of the money they had was given to them by Luo Cheng and their daughter.
Therefore, Zhao Xiu was also very worried!
“Money is no problem. I can resolve it. It’s just that there’s no suitable house to buy in the village now. By the time we finish repairing the house, it’ll be too late for Xiaoran’s wedding,” Li Shun said.
“Money is no problem? Husband, where did you get the money?” Zhao Xiu asked when she heard his words.
Li Shun thought for a moment and decided not to hide it.
“You know my grandfather, right? He left me something before he died. At the time, I didn’t understand why my grandfather only left me something and told me not to retrieve it unless I had to. If one day, I was kicked out of my family and had nowhere to go, I could go retrieve it.”
“I think there’s probably money in what my grandfather left me. As long as I go and take that thing out, we won’t have to worry about not having enough money to buy a house!”
Zhao Xiu’s mouth dropped open as she looked at the person beside her.
They had shared a bed for so many years, but he had been hiding such a big secret from her.
“Why have you never mentioned this before?”
“No matter what, I couldn’t say it! Before my grandfather died, he made me swear that I couldn’t touch this thing unless I had no other option. He also told me not to tell anyone, especially my parents and my two brothers!” Li Shun explained, “I didn’t plan to retrieve that thing in the past, then I forgot about it later on. I only remembered it now!”
When Zhao Xiu heard this, she didn’t blame her man for hiding it, but she became more curious.
What was it that made Li Shun’s grandfather want to keep it for Li Shun alone without telling anyone in the family?
“Should we tell our daughter and son-in-law about this?” Zhao Xiu thought of something and asked.
Li Shun thought about it for a moment.
“We have to say it. After all, we’re moving out, so we have to tell them! Besides, I think Luo Cheng is a reliable kid. If we get that thing, we have to let him follow us!”
Zhao Xiu thought about it and felt that it made sense.
“Alright, it’s settled then! Let’s call Xiaoran and Luo Cheng together tomorrow and discuss it!”
“If your daughter and son-in-law ask you to stay, will you change your mind again?” Zhao Xiu thought of something and asked.
Li Shun laughed.
“Don’t worry! I won’t change my mind! I’m different from before! Wife, it’s been hard on you in the past. You’ve suffered for so many years! Believe me, I’ll definitely let you live a good life in the future!”
Zhao Xiu looked at Li Shun as she nodded.
“I believe you!”
Just like that, the couple reached an agreement. Then, they closed their eyes and fell asleep in each other’s arms.
This night was the best and most peaceful night for Li Shun and Zhao Xiu since they came to the Luo family.
The next morning, Li Shun revealed a heavy message for the family at breakfast.
In the past, Li Xiaoran’s first reaction would have been to disagree.
They were living together quite harmoniously. Why were they thinking of moving out?
However, after experiencing Hu Xuefei and Xiao Yue’er’s incident, Li Xiaoran suppressed her emotions and asked, “Father, Mother, I want to know why you two suddenly have such thoughts?”
Li Shun looked at his daughter and sighed.
“It didn’t happen suddenly. Actually, I’ve always had this thought! Daughter, son-in-law, I know you’re filial and want to live a good life together with us. It’s just that we should have our own lives. Although we live separately, it doesn’t mean that the kinship between us will fade. Instead, we’ll get along even better.”
“Actually, the main reason is that I can’t live with myself. I’m a man! Being unable to support my family and letting you all suffer for so many years was a huge mistake. I want to take up responsibility as a man!”
As soon as Li Shun said this, Li Xiaoran couldn’t bring herself to object.
That’s right. From Li Shun’s point of view, as an able man, he must have felt terrible living in his son-in-law’s house all day.
If Li Xiaoran forced them to stay here, there might be resentment between them in the future.
Perhaps they would get along better if they kept some distance.
Luo Cheng also understood what his father-in-law meant.
To be honest, Luo Cheng could actually understand his father-in-law’s thoughts.
If it were him, he wouldn’t be willing to live with his son-in-law either.
Now that Li Shun had mentioned it, Luo Cheng’s first reaction was to respect their decision.
“Then, Father, do you want to build a house in the village?” After Li Xiaoran figured it out, she asked, “Since you two think it’s better to move out, let Luo Cheng and I build a house for you two in the village! You two can’t refuse this!”
Li Xiaoran knew that her parents didn’t have much money, so she offered to help them build the house.
Luo Cheng thought about it and said, “That’s right. Father, Mother, it only takes a month to build a house. Now that January is almost over, we can build the house in February and you guys can move in during March. It just so happens that Xiaoran can get married from that house. There’s still time. Leave the construction of the house to me! However, I still have to ask you two where you want to build the house.”
