Song Li looked at the things in the car and still regretted that he had not bought the fabric just now.

"These things are enough. There are a lot of cloths at home. My sister and I bought a lot of them when we went to the provincial capital some time ago. We really don't need them anymore." Li Zhengde said.

After listening to Li Zhengde's explanation, Song Li nodded and said, "If that's the case, it's fine, but you can't be hostile to me, otherwise I will be unhappy."

Now that the two of them are familiar with each other, they don't have so many concerns about what they say or do.

Li Zhengde immediately acted as if he was terrified. "Brother Song Li, what are you talking about? How dare I!"

The two looked at each other, and their relationship quickly heated up as they chatted and laughed.

When the two of them arrived at Li Mingxia's house, Xue Li and Li Zhengxue had already met the people in the Li family's old house.

"The one moving the table is my third uncle. You saw that Li Mingxia's father whom you wanted to meet. Her father would come here and run around just because I said a word. What's more, it's Li Mingxia. Brother Xue Li, I didn't lie to you, did I?" Li Zhengxue saw Li Sanlang as soon as he entered the yard. He was in a good mood immediately. He turned his head and said to Xue Li who was beside him.

After taking a look at the simple and honest man, and thinking of the girl with lively eyes, Xue Li felt a little emotional. How could such a man give birth to a daughter like Li Mingxia?

But Li Zhengxue was right. Li Sanlang was helping out here, not to mention Li Mingxia? It seemed that his few dozen taels of silver would not be wasted.

Xue Li nodded and turned his gaze away from Li Sanlang. "Brother Zhengxue, what are you talking about? I have always believed in you, otherwise I would not have followed you home. Stop talking so much. Move the things you bought down first. This is your first visit, so you can't be impolite no matter what."

"Is Zhengxue back? Come in quickly! Isn't it cold outside?" The voice of Mr. Li was heard from the house. He had obviously been listening to the noise in the yard. When Li Zhengxue came in, he saw it immediately.

Li Zhengxue agreed and walked towards the main hall with Xue Li and a group of servants carrying gifts.

When Li Zhengxue passed by Li Sanlang on the road, he heard Li Sanlang calling him, but he didn't even look at Li Sanlang. Instead, Xue Li hesitated for a moment, hurriedly saluted Li Sanlang, turned around and followed Li Zhengxue.

"Why do you care what he does? He's just a country bumpkin, a waste of time." Li Zhengxue said with a frown.

After arriving at the Li family's old house, Li Zhengxue felt like he was at his home ground. His momentum continued to rise, and he even looked down on Xue Li. No one knew where his confidence came from.

Xue Li didn't want to cause any trouble at this time, so he said perfunctorily and followed Li Zhengxue into the main hall to meet Mr. Li and others.

"Sister, I'm back with my classmates!" Li Zhengde seemed like a different person when he returned home. He no longer had the steadiness and maturity he had in school. He looked much more pleasing to the eye, at least in line with his age.

"Are they back? Mom, Zhengde is back with his classmates!" After hearing the voice, Li Mingxia walked out while greeting Zhang.

"Here we go! Zhengde, take your classmates inside quickly, it's cold outside!"

Zhang attached great importance to this matter. She had been thinking about when the classmate Li Zhengde had talked about would arrive home. Now that the time had finally come, she wiped her hands, tidied up her new clothes, and went out to greet them with her two little girls.

As they were talking, Li Zhengpin and Li Mingxia also came out from the main room.

"This is the Brother Song Li you mentioned, Zhengde. He is indeed a handsome man. One can tell at first glance that he will have a bright future." Li Mingxia took a look at Song Li and said with satisfaction.

Although he had seen him before, that was only from a distance. This was the first time he had seen him standing opposite him and talking to him. Now that he had taken a closer look, Li Mingxia felt that he was a good guy and that he could rest assured that Zhengde could get along with him in the future.

"You must be Zhengde's sister, I've heard of your name for a long time. I'm overjoyed to see you today." Song Li's eyes were shining with joy. Unlike Li Mingxia's polite words, every word he said came from the heart.

"Hello, Auntie, this..."

"This is my eldest brother, Brother Song Li." Li Zhengde said quickly.

"Oh, hello, big brother. I came in a hurry and prepared a small gift. It's insignificant. Please accept it, aunt." Song Li bowed slightly, with a very humble attitude. It was a standard conversation and negotiation between the younger and the elder.

Zhang looked at the five or six servants who were carrying large and small bags, feeling a little helpless. One of them seemed to be carrying a few sacks, probably rice and flour?

"How can we take so many things? They are too valuable. We can't afford to give them away at home. Please take them back when you go back. We can't accept them!" Zhang said quickly.

She said that the family no longer lacked food and clothing, and even if they were still as hungry as before, given Zhang's personality, she would never feel at ease accepting so many expensive gifts from others.

"Mom, these things are the gifts my brother's friends brought when they came to visit us for the first time. After all, they are a token of their love. How can you let him take them back?" Li Mingxia stepped forward and winked at Zhang.

Li Zhengde is no longer a child now, and Li Mingxia is worried that Zhang's words just now will make him embarrassed in front of his classmates.

"Come into the house quickly." Li Zhengde said.

The group entered the house, and Song Li's eyes scanned the room, finally falling on the cakes and pastries placed on the small table. There were six kinds in total, all of which he had never seen before.

"Sit down and eat some cakes to fill your stomach. It's not time to eat yet. I guess you are not very hungry, right?"

Seeing how intimate Li Zhengde treated Song Li, he simply let them into Li Zhengde's room to talk. The uneasy Zhang said a few words reluctantly and was "rescued" by Li Mingxia with another excuse.

"It's quiet here, no one will disturb you, you can eat something and chat here, Young Master Song can try this tea, although it's not as good as the one you drink on weekdays, but it has a unique flavor, and it's just right to go with these cakes."

Li Mingxia made a caramel version of milk tea in his spare time. He reduced the sugar by three points according to the original proportion, which was more in line with the taste of people in this dynasty. In today's caramel milk tea, Li Mingxia also deliberately added some more jasmine petals and whipped a layer of cream on it. It looked good and tasted good, but it was not suitable to be stored at such a temperature, as the cream would melt. That was why Li Mingxia urged them to use it quickly.
