Chapter 16 Protecting Your Family
Thinking of this, Li Mingqiu began to feel uneasy. The pain on her face and body was actually nothing. What she feared most was that her elder sister was unhappy.
"Sister, I was wrong." Li Mingqiu's tears fell down. She looked at Li Mingxia with a dejected look like a pitiful puppy.
"Huh? Wrong?" Li Mingxia was holding a basin of water in his hand, thinking about how to coax his three younger brothers and sisters, but he didn't expect to hear Li Mingqiu say this.
"The silk flower is broken." Li Mingqiu curled her lips and was about to cry out loud. When Li Mingdong heard this, he burst into tears and raised his own silk flower which was already in tatters while crying.
"Big sis! Mine is broken too! It's all their fault! They are bad!"
When the two little girls cried, Zhang's heart seemed to be squeezed tightly. She hugged the two girls and kept coaxing them, "It's broken, so be good. If it's broken, we'll buy another pair. This time we'll buy a more beautiful pair. Sister Dong and Sister Qiu, are you the most obedient? Don't cry anymore, or your mother will be heartbroken!"
When Li Mingxia heard about Juanhua'er's matter, she didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Did the two girls cry like this just because of such a small matter? It was because their family was poor and they had never seen any good things before. While no one was paying attention, Li Mingxia took out two small pearl hairpins from her space. These were the pearls she bought when she was obsessed with Hanfu. She made them by herself. They were not expensive, but they were exquisite and beautiful. The two little girls would definitely like them.
"Look at this, those two silk flowers are not worthy of our two little darlings, don't they look good? Come, come here, sister will wash your faces and comb your most beautiful hair later. When you go out to play, everyone will praise our Sister Dong and Sister Qiu for being beautiful." Li Mingxia gave the two small pearls to the two little girls and coaxed them into the house. Zhang also followed them in.
The two men carefully checked Li Mingdong and Li Mingqiu's bodies and finally breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that nothing was wrong.
Girls have to consider more things. Fortunately, nothing happened. If something really happened, not to mention Zhang, even Li Mingxia would have wanted to kill someone.
Zhang and Li Mingxia each held a little girl to help them wash their faces and hair. Thinking of what happened today, Zhang felt a lingering fear.
"Sister Xia, tell me, why have you become so brave since you woke up." Zhang sighed lightly. She didn't hear Li Mingxia speak for a long time. Her eyes inadvertently fell on her head. A faint scar was faintly visible. Zhang felt as if she understood something.
"You child!" Zhang's tears just fell, dripping into the basin, "You really make me, as a mother, feel so heartbroken!"
Li Mingxia didn't say anything just now because he didn't know how to answer Zhang's words, so he remained silent. Now Zhang suddenly cried so sadly and kept staring at his forehead. How could Li Mingxia not understand what she was thinking?
However, taking this opportunity, Li Mingxia also wanted to make Zhang understand something. He didn't know how to start the conversation, but now it seems the time is right.
"Mom, do you think that a girl like me shouldn't be so aggressive?" Li Mingxia spoke to Zhang in a gentle voice while wiping Li Mingqiu's hair.
Originally, Li Mingxia thought that Zhang was most worried about her reputation, so she asked this question, but unexpectedly, Zhang shook her head and said, "Mother just thinks that mother is useless. Anyone dares to bully our family. If your elder brother and your father were at home, there would be no need for a little girl like you to stand in front of them!"
Li Mingxia curled the corners of his mouth and felt warm in his heart. Who doesn't like to be cared for?
"So, mother, the two of us must be tougher in order to protect our younger brothers and sisters! We came back early today, but what if we came back later? These are two little girls!" Li Mingxia deliberately spoke in a serious tone, and sure enough, Zhang's face changed all of a sudden. After a while, Zhang put down the towel in her hand and let out a breath.
"Yes! If anyone dares to bully our family again, I will chop them to death!"
We had fish soup and spicy fish balls for dinner.
Li Mingxia was in a good mood, so he was much more meticulous when cooking. There was no need to say much about the fish soup, and the spicy fish balls had a lot of shrimp meat added to them. After being marinated with seasonings, the fish meat and a little bit of starch were mixed into balls and finally stewed with chili peppers.
After finishing all these, Li Mingxia used big bones to make soup, and mixed white flour and black flour to make steamed buns. The hearty meal made the three little girls very happy. After the meal, Li Mingxia combed two beautiful little buns for them and inserted small pearl hairpins into their hair. The two little girls happily ran out to play.
Li Mingxia heaved a sigh of relief and began to have new ideas in his mind. The sweet porridge pastry business would not last long. Although his recipe would not be passed on to others, over time, someone would be able to figure it out. By that time, when more people were doing the business, his business would not be as good as it was now. He had to think of other ways out.
This money-making plan cannot be completed overnight, and Li Mingxia did not want to put too much pressure on herself. Autumn was coming soon. Li Mingxia stood in the yard and looked at their house. It needed to be tidied up and repaired. The tables and chairs in the house were about to fall apart. There were also quilts, cotton clothes, and food for the winter. All these things had to be prepared. The most important thing was the problem of winter vegetables. Although Li Mingxia had these things in her space, she had to go through Minglu before she could take them out, otherwise there would be no way to explain.
Thinking of this, Li Mingxia had a vague idea of a plan in his mind, but now was not the time to talk about it. No matter what he did, he needed start-up capital. With the money he had now, he could not do anything at all, so no matter how many ideas he had, they would be useless.
About half a month later, sweet pastries and porridge similar to his own appeared on the street. Although the taste was not as good as his, the price was cheaper. Usually, the things he brought were sold out in two hours at most. Today, when he was about to close the stall, there were still a dozen pieces of red fruit cakes left. Li Mingxia knew that his business was at the end. He waited for a while and then the sound of rain came running over.
"Mingxia! Any more cakes?"
Yu Sheng was the servant who first came to buy cakes for his young master but went back empty-handed. In the past half month, he came every day just for the red fruit cake and the sweet porridge. Although he didn't know why his young master, who was used to eating delicacies from land and sea, loved these two things so much, he just did whatever the young master said. In this way, after a few visits, Yu Sheng and Li Mingxia became familiar with each other, and they would occasionally chat when they were free.
