Eat My Childless Life: The Little Fisher Girl is Poor and Fierce

Chapter 249 Visiting relatives, shouldn't it be a matter of matching social status?

Lin Chang'er didn't see this scene. She just walked up to Li Mian's family with a smile and said, "Aunt Li, Brother Li, Sister-in-law Li, we received the little quilt you made for Yudian'er."

"Thank you for your trouble. My second sister-in-law likes it very much. She is still in her postpartum period and it is not convenient for her to move around. I came to see you off on her behalf."

Aunt Li smiled gently, her expression serene. "As long as it pleases her, that's good. I'll also trouble Third Madam to pass on a message to her, telling her to live a good life and not to worry about us."

Lin Chang'er smiled and said, "I don't like what you're saying, Auntie. When it comes to visiting relatives, it's all about frequent visits and interactions."

Aunt Li pursed her lips, smiled faintly, and lowered her head.

When visiting relatives, the families should be of similar social standing, right?

Isn't it just making things difficult for people who are not well-matched in social status?

Seeing this, Li Mian took over the conversation, saying, "What the Third Madam says is true. If anything happens to Third Sister later, please send a message home."

Lin Chang'er sighed, thinking to herself, "People are all eager to come up to me and make friends."

Their whole family avoided it like the plague.

Lin Chang'er smiled and said, "Of course we'll have to! There are big and small events to come, like the full moon celebration and the first birthday!"

Upon hearing this, Aunt Li looked at Lin Chang'er again. Seeing that she seemed genuinely interested in having dealings with their family, her smile returned. "Those of us who can help each other, please send messages home."

"Alright, I'll remember that. I'll tell my second sister-in-law the same thing later." Lin Chang'er replied, then paused and continued, "Just now during dinner, I heard Qingyang say that our master hurt his leg, is that right?"

Aunt Li paused for a moment, "These kinds of injuries happen to peasants all the time. Please tell Third Sister not to worry about it."

Sister-in-law Li also came forward and scolded her son, "You, why do you tell everyone everything?"

Li Mian smiled apologetically and said, "The child is ignorant and has made Third Madam worry."

Li Qingyang just lowered his head and didn't say anything. He knew in his heart that his grandmother and mother just didn't want to trouble his third aunt.

At this moment, Gu Xiaoman looked up and said in her babyish voice, "Grandma, Aunt, Grandpa is injured. He needs to see a doctor and take medicine. It will hurt if he doesn't take medicine. Brother Qingyang did nothing wrong!"

Aunt Li, Sister-in-law Li, and Li Mian all paused, looking at Gu Xiaoman, unsure how to respond.

Lin Chang'er said, "Xiaoman is right. Although farmers often suffer losses, I think our master is getting old and is not as young as he used to be."

"Qingyang is also worried about the old man. Well, our neighbor is the old doctor. She treats our father from the coastal defense team whenever he gets injured."

"Anyway, we're going there and coming back by car, so I've asked the old woman to come back with you so she can take a look at the old man."

“This…” Li Mian hesitated and looked at Aunt Li.

Lin Chang'er continued, "It's like this, just as Qingyang was telling me, Lord Wu was standing nearby. Lord Wu was very moved by Qingyang's sincerity and filial piety. So, Lord Wu has already paid the consultation fee and medicine fee."

"Well, what I mean is, Auntie, Brother and Sister-in-law, if you could tell the old doctor about the old man's condition first, she could prepare the medicine more accurately to take with her."

Aunt Li, Li Mian, and Sister-in-law Li were all stunned by this unexpected surprise.

Although the third wife of the Gu family spoke very tactfully, they knew in their hearts that things were definitely not that simple.

The third wife of the Gu family is trying to save face for them.

They've already gone to such lengths; for them to refuse would be rather ungrateful.

Li Mian immediately bowed and said, "Li Mian thanks the Third Madam for her kindness."

"Thank you, thank you, Third Madam."

Aunt Li's eyes also reddened. She knew her husband's condition best, but when he came, he repeatedly told her that Third Sister had suffered hardships in her childhood and had been plagued by hidden illnesses as she grew up, so her life as a wife must be difficult.

Tell her not to trouble Third Sister.

Now that they see how well the Gu family treats Third Sister, they are relieved and dare to accept this favor.

Aunt Li wiped her eyes and instructed Li Mian, "Mian'er, go and tell the old doctor about your father's condition."

Lin Chang'er smiled and said, "I'll have Seventh Brother take Brother Li over there."

He beckoned Ah Qi over and gave him some instructions.

Li Mian cupped his hands in thanks, saying, "Thank you for your trouble."

Ah Qi took him to see the old doctor.

Gu Xiaoman watched as Li Mian and Seventh Uncle entered the old doctor's house before grinning at Li Qingyang and saying, "Brother Qingyang, a doctor has gone to see your grandfather. Your grandfather won't be in pain anymore."

Li Qingyang smiled as well, "Yes, Grandpa will get better soon. Thank you, Little Man, and thank you, Third Madam."

Lin Chang'er pulled her hand away, rubbed the heads of the two little ones, and whispered a few more words of advice to Li Qingyang.

Li Qingyang stared wide-eyed, not blinking, as if afraid of missing a single word.

After she finished speaking, she hurriedly shook her head, "But..."

Lin Chang'er deliberately widened her eyes and uttered a "Hmm?"

He then nodded and said, "Okay! Qingyang will remember, thank you, Third Madam."

With everything ready, Liu Zi and his brothers drove a donkey cart and a horse-drawn carriage to take the people of Lijia Village back home.

Lin Chang'er watched them walk away from the front door before going back to rest.

The road at night was difficult to walk; what should have been a 25-minute walk took almost half an hour.

Upon arrival, the villagers of Lijia Village warmly invited Liu Zi and his companions to their homes for a visit.

"Six brothers, come on, let's go to our house for a cup of tea."

"No one's home at your house, the pot is cold and the stove is cold. By the time you boil the water, it will be dawn. Brother Liu, come to my house."

"Stop arguing, come to my house. I have a girl here to look after the house! Hot water is ready."

It was Aunt Li who spoke. Liu Zi quickly declined, "Aunt Li, the road is difficult to travel at night. Let's not go home for tea today. How about we visit another day, after Madam Li has finished her postpartum confinement?"

Aunt Li, hearing him address her as Aunt Li, felt somewhat relieved despite the rejection, and said, "Alright then, it's settled then. When you come to the village again, you must visit our home."

"It's a promise, it's a promise, we'll remember it!" Liu Zi echoed, then said to the others, "It's getting late, everyone should head back and settle in!"

The group exchanged glances and nodded. "Yes, yes, let's go home. Li Da, we're going the same way, let's go together."

Intentionally or unintentionally, she hugged Li Da and herded him and Li Qiulan home like ducks.

Seeing this, Liu Zi couldn't help but smile...
