Transmigration: The Main Character is Not Becoming the Cannon Fodder! Chapter 412 - 4: Brother-in-law and Sister-in-law (Part 4)
Li Shujiao had a beautiful dream; she would be the woman behind Zhang Mingyang. What was Li Shuning compared to her? Besides, she was much younger than Li Shuning, surely Zhang Mingyang knew how to choose.
Thinking about this, she felt a sweetness in her heart. The gentleness of her brother-in-law when they were together filled her with happiness. How amazing he was.
In Jian City, everything was calm, as if Li Shuning’s departure was insignificant and had no impact.
Li Shuning got off the train and breathed a sigh of relief. This world was still relatively backward, and for long distances, the train was the most convenient option. Cars were not yet popular, and many roads were bad, with so routes prone to robbery, making them unsafe.
Airplanes were also rare.
Driving oneself was even less appropriate because there were few gas stations, and you had to bring your own gasoline. Traveling alone increased the risk of robbery.
There were already people waiting for Li Shuning on the platform.
Li Shuning left the train station and was driven ho in the family car.
Speaking of which, the Li Family was indeed very prominent at this ti.
Li Shuning’s father was a marshal in the military.
Her grandfather had also been a marshal and was now retired and very healthy. As long as her grandfather was around, the Li Family’s status wouldn’t waver.
If Li Shuning’s grandfather were no longer around, although her father was also at the marshal level, it would not be quite the sa.
Her uncle was thriving in politics.
His eldest son, Li Shuning’s eldest cousin, was stationed out of town like Zhang Mingyang and was very capable.
Zhang Mingyang’s success today was not only due to Li Shuning’s efforts but also because her uncle secretly looked after him.
Her second cousin served in the military.
Her younger uncle and his son were also in the military.
Her younger uncle’s daughter was in the military too.
Li Shuning was also very capable, but she hid her talents to help Zhang Mingyang succeed.
The Li Family, despite its strength, was ultimately brought to ruin by Li Shujiao and Zhang Mingyang.
At this mont, as Li Shuning returned ho, the original owner’s mother, Sun Xiaolan, was a bit anxious, not knowing if sothing had happened, unable to sit still or stand still.
"Wife, you’re pacing back and forth, making dizzy. Our daughter will be ho soon, and you’ll see her in a while. Why are you pacing around so much?"
"Old man, if you hadn’t opposed our daughter’s marriage to Mingyang back then, she wouldn’t have stayed away all these years. She barely ca ho during the New Year. Now she’s suddenly back, and I’m very worried. Could sothing have happened to her? She had a miscarriage a few years ago, and it hurt deeply. Our daughter has been too stubborn, and it’s all because of you. That fire in her heart hasn’t been quelled yet."
As she spoke, Sun Xiaolan started to cry.
Li Zhongguo imdiately panicked and jumped up, hugging Sun Xiaolan: "Hey, at this age, you’re still crying. Aren’t you embarrassed? If the child sees you later, she’ll surely make fun of you."
"Sob, I’m just worried. The child wouldn’t make fun of ."
Just as she finished speaking, a child’s voice rang out: "Grandma, why are you crying? Did Grandpa bully you?"
Sun Xiaolan was a bit speechless, quickly wiping her tears and went to comfort her granddaughter.
When Li Shuning got out of the car, she felt a bit wistful as she saw the familiar courtyard.
The original owner had dread of ho many tis, yet she was a stubborn person.
When Li Shuning pushed the door open and entered, she saw her mother, Sun Xiaolan, holding her daughter, Zhang Momo, chatting and laughing, occasionally bumping heads, a scene full of warmth.
It was Li Zhongguo who noticed Li Shuning had returned.
Li Zhongguo was montarily startled, then greeted her indifferently: "You’re back."
Sun Xiaolan imdiately turned around, her eyes moistening, and quickly rushed towards Li Shuning with Zhang Momo.
"Ningning’s back! Are you tired? Hungry? Sister-in-law Wang, quickly bring out the trella soup I asked you to stew earlier."
"Old man, why are you still sitting there? Go help Ningning carry her luggage inside. You’re obviously concerned, but acting like an ice block. Who are you trying to fool?"
Li Zhongguo almost lost composure but still walked over to carry the luggage inside.
He found it rather heavy and couldn’t help but glance at Li Shuning again, silently blaming the people who went to pick her up for not helping her with her luggage. Such a delicate young lady carrying sothing so heavy, she must be exhausted.
Zhang Momo hid behind Sun Xiaolan, looking timidly at Li Shuning.
Li Shuning sighed inwardly. This child was also a pitiful one; the original owner had focused all her attention on Zhang Mingyang, neglecting the child, who eventually died painfully.
Li Shuning squatted down and took out a small doll from her handbag.
This doll was probably very hard to co by in this world, and Li Shuning had retrieved it from the Qiankun Ring to give to the little girl.
Sure enough, upon seeing the exquisite doll, Nannan’s eyes lit up.
Sun Xiaolan almost cried again.
She disapproved of so of her daughter’s actions, but seeing her daughter and granddaughter’s current situation, she felt both sad and happy.
"Nannan, do you like it? This is a gift that mom specially bought for you."
Nannan glanced at Sun Xiaolan, saw the encouragent in her grandmother’s eyes, and stepped forward: "Mom, I like it very much."
Although she was already eight years old, she had never seen such a pretty doll, and it was her mother who bought it. Zhang Momo felt a burst of joy in her heart.
Li Shuning placed the doll into Zhang Momo’s hands and imdiately hugged her. Zhang Momo stiffened there at once.
"Nannan, mom missed you so much."
Li Shuning planted a kiss on Zhang Momo’s cheek and couldn’t help squeezing her in a hug.
Seeing Zhang Momo in a daze, Li Shuning laughed but didn’t let go.
Zhang Momo breathed a sigh of relief, leaning into her mother’s embrace, feeling warm, with a lovely scent from her mother that she adored.
She wished her mother could always be by her side, how wonderful that would be.
Li Shuning sipped so trella soup and then opened her luggage, distributing gifts she had brought back for the family.
Most were things she bought in this world, so taken from the Qiankun Ring.
Sun Xiaolan was very pleased, feeling like her daughter had finally co around this ti.
"Ningning, did sothing happen that brought you back so suddenly?"
Li Shuning put down the things in her hands and sat on the sofa, her expression turning serious: "Dad, Mom, I have sothing to talk to you about."
Li Zhongguo’s expression grew serious too: "Let’s go to the study."
Zhang Momo carried her toy and the few snacks Li Shuning had chosen for her back to her room.
Li Shuning and her parents went to the study.
Once inside, Li Shuning asked specifically: "Dad, is this room secure?"
Li Zhongguo was montarily stunned, then opened and closed the door, locking it. He took out a small black box, pressed sothing on it, scanned around, and then confird: "It’s safe. With the door closed, even if soone is outside, they can’t hear what’s being said inside."
