Just as he was about to continue, he saw his wife looking at him strangely.
“Where did the money come from?”
Li Xiao paused.
Only then did he tell Lin Xiaoyue the truth.
It turned out that ever since Hei Gang became Li Xiao’s brother-in-law, he had brought him a lot of business.
He even got him to work as a bodyguard.
Four days ago, Hei Gang had even personally brought him along for a trip.
In less than a day, he had already earned 50 taels of silver.
He bought the golden hairpin with that money.
“You just need to do your job at the dock. Why are you working as a bodyguard?!” Lin Xiaoyue’s expression changed immediately.
She believed in Li Xiao’s ability, but she didn’t want him to earn this kind of money.
It wasn’t easy for them to get some peace and prosperity. There was no need for him to do this.
Li Xiao knew that his wife was worried about him, so he smiled and patted Lin Xiaoyue’s head.
“Don’t worry, the jobs that Hei Gang introduced to me are not risky. He heard that I was short of money to get married, so he helped me.”
Lin Xiaoyue was stunned and her face instantly turned red.
When Li Xiao saw Lin Xiaoyue like this, his mood became even better.
“It will be our wedding day in three days. Hei Gang said that he would invite some of the other men over to his house. His wife will also come home early to help.”
Placing his hand on Lin Xiaoyue’s shoulder, Li Xiao looked at Lin Xiaoyue’s beautiful face and felt his breathing become heavier.
“So…soon?” Lin Xiaoyue didn’t even dare to look into Li Xiao’s eyes.
“Heh, how is it soon? I can’t wait.” Li Xiao was amused by his wife.
“I’ll go see mother when I get back. It’s time to make some arrangements.”
Lin Xiaoyue hurriedly pushed Li Xiao away and turned her body sideways.
“You’ve spent all your money on the hairpin, do you still have the money to marry me?”
The corners of Li Xiao’s lips curled up.
“Hei Gang just gave me a big business. The deposit will be in my account tomorrow. You don’t have to worry about the wedding.”
“I’m not worried!”
At night.
After the meal, Li Xiao went to look for Liu Shi.
It was rare for Lin Xiaoyue to not pester him. She went quickly to wash the dishes.
The next day, Liu Shi took the ox-cart to town.
After meeting up with Hei Gang’s wife, Madam Zhou, the two of them went shopping.
Liu Shi had met Madam Zhou before. Two days after Hei Gang acknowledged her as his godmother, he brought his wife to visit her in Dashi Village.
Madam Zhou, like Hei Gang, had lost her mother a long time ago.
After meeting Liu Shi and listening to her husband’s words, she really treated Liu Shi as her own mother.
In particular, Madam Zhou was five years younger than Hei Gang and only two years older than Lin Xiaoyue. She looked at Liu Shi like she was looking at her mother.
Now that Madam Zhou had received instructions from her husband and knew that her godmother was going to organize a wedding for her sister and brother-in-law, how could she not do her best to help?
Not only did Madam Zhou help Liu Shi purchase the things needed for the wedding, she also brought her to the shops she was familiar with to bargain and used her carriage to help transport the things.
After completing the first batch of purchases, Madam Zhou asked her servants to ride the carriage to Daishi Village.
When they reached home, Liu Shi found out that her daughter had arrived earlier than them.
Lin Xiaoyue saw Madam Zhou and quickly welcomed her.
Madam Zhou liked it when she treated her like her sister-in-law.
Then, they had lunch.
Madam Zhou asked the servants to work with her and Liu Shi in the Liu family’s courtyard..
