Since he became disabled, Li Manyao has been looking for folk remedies for so many years to cure his legs. In addition to basic Western medicine, the rest is either stewed tonics or traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture.
In fact, he had undergone surgery on his legs and had taken countless medicines and supplements, but he still couldn't stand up.
No matter what you eat, you are deceiving yourself.
But he didn't want to disobey his mother's kindness, so he took the spoon and lazily took a few bites.
Li Manyao stared at her son eating, her smile showing a bit of love, as if watching her son eat the tonic she stewed was the happiest thing in the world, and she casually asked: "It's so late, what else does Miao You want to see you for?"
Is it something important, about your consortium?"
Li Chengxun stopped holding the spoon, shook his head, and said carelessly: "It's nothing. Just some official business."
Seeing that her son was speaking vaguely, Li Manyao suppressed her smile and did not pursue the matter further. She just changed the topic: "I heard that you went out this afternoon. Where were you?"
Li Chengxun buried his head in eating: "I haven't been out much since I came back. It's a bit boring. I asked someone to drive me and took me out for a walk."
"Really? Why did I hear from the servant at home that you ordered a large bunch of goddesses the day before yesterday? Yes, Uncle Amber just told me that you sent someone to call the royal management department? You, Uncle Amber
Say, you seem to be interceding for a crew from China and want them to use the farm near the palace for filming?"
The An family is a family friend of the Jin family and a wealthy aristocrat of country M. Internal members work in the royal management department and have frequent contacts with people in the Jin family.
Li Chengxun could no longer afford to be careless and raised his face.
Li Manyao wiped away the food residue from her son's mouth with a tissue and said calmly, "Chengxun, if something happens, can't you tell mom?"
Li Chengxun then put down his spoon: "The heroine of that crew is called Su Mi, and she is Huo Shenxiu's wife."
Li Manyao's expression changed slightly: "Huo Shenxiu's wife came to our country M?"
"Yes. I just came here a few days ago."
She calmed down a little, put down the tissue calmly, and said in a calm tone: "So, you sent flowers, ran out, and asked the royal management department for help in the past two days, all for the sake of a married woman?"
Li Chengxun admitted generously: "Yeah."
Li Manyao took a deep breath, sat up straight, and did not ask her son why.
In the past few years, my son has gone out to establish a business consortium, and has always been against his husband's son who stayed in China. Now that he is so kind to Su Mi, he may be deliberately trying to antagonize Huo Shenxiu.
She took a deep look at her son, and after a while, she stood up and put the cup he had finished drinking back on the tray: "It's getting late, Chengxun, go to bed early."
Turn around, push the door open and go out.
In the corridor, a girl in her twenties with long hair shawl seemed to have been waiting for a while. When she saw Li Manyao coming out, she hurried over and took the initiative to help her take the tray. She called out sweetly:
"Cousin aunt."
Li Manyao smiled lovingly at the girl: "I'm not asleep yet, Ziya."
Wan Ziya is the daughter left behind by a relative of their Li family.
As a result, she is considered her niece.
When Wan Ziya was young, her parents died in a car accident, and her grandparents and other elders had also passed away long ago.
The Li family wanted to find someone in the family to raise the little girl.
Although no one in the family was short of money, raising a child was still a big responsibility. It was not like raising a pet, and since it was not your biological child, you were afraid of not being able to raise it properly. For a while, no one wanted to take on this heavy responsibility.
At that time, Li Manyao had already married Jin Fengtai and gave birth to Li Chengxun. She had always wanted to have a daughter, but her stomach had been silent. She had nothing to do and was greedy for her daughter, so she took the initiative to propose to the family that the little girl should be given away.
She was taken to her side and raised, and she was pampered like a daughter.
This way, he was raised until he was twenty years old.
Wan Ziya had been living under the influence of others since she was a child, and developed a very good temperament to please others. In addition, she was grateful to Li Manyao for taking the initiative to raise her, and treated the Jin Fengtai couple as their biological parents. Therefore, she was very favored and had always had a high status in the Jin family.
There is no difference from a biological lady.
She smiled quietly: "My cousin is not asleep yet, and I don't want to sleep either." She looked at the empty bowl again:
"Cousin, has he drank all his wine today? He seems to be in a good mood."
Li Chengxun has been depressed since he was brought back to Country M by his cousin's uncle. Because of his limited mobility, he spent most of his time locked in his room.
Every day, he just drank a few sips of the tonic that his cousin gave him stewed to cope with it.
I actually drank them all today.
Li Manyao's expression changed and she was in a good mood? Was it because she saw the woman named Su Mi coming?
She can't figure out now whether her son's kindness to Su Mi is simply to get revenge on Huo Shenxiu and not want to lose to Huo Shenxiu, or whether he is sincere.
She calmed down her mind and touched her niece's black hair: "Yes, your cousin is a person who depends on his mood. How is it like you? You are obviously younger than him, but you are also more sensible, well-behaved and measured in doing things. Who married him?
You have all found treasures."
Wan Ziya's pretty pink face turned red: "Aunt Cousin, why did you blame me?"
"It's time to blame you. You're already twenty." Li Manyao smiled softly and touched her niece's head again: "It's almost time to think about major events in life."
"But I'm still studying." Wan Ziya lowered her head shyly.
"So what? You're already in your junior year, and you still have one year left to graduate? You can start dating now, get along with the other person, and get married as soon as you graduate next year. Otherwise, even if you haven't graduated yet,
, you can also get married."
The legal age for marriage in country m is sixteen.
Not to mention that Wan Ziya is already in college, even if she is still in middle school, she can get married if she wants.
But Wan Ziya still blushed shyly: "My cousin isn't even married yet, so why is my cousin starting to have ideas for me? I won't get married, I want to stay with you for the rest of my life..."
"That won't work. I have to marry you off in style to be worthy of your deceased parents." Li Manyao shook her head with a smile, her eyes shining with profound luster, and said meaningfully: "So, my cousin must give it to you.
Only by choosing the best partner can you put your parents at ease."
When Wan Ziya thought of her parents who passed away early, the flush on her face dissipated and she felt a little uncomfortable.
Losing her parents at a young age was the only pain in her happy life.
Fortunately, God was kind to her and she was adopted by the Jin family.
Even if you follow your biological parents, you may not be able to live such a pampered life.
After listening to Li Manyao's words again, she noticed something and probed: "Cousin, you don't mean to say that you have already chosen a candidate for me, right?"
