My parents are both dead, I rely on fishing and farming to support my younger siblings

"Lili, what you said is true! Ershu...he finally found a wife!" Old Mrs. Li said excitedly.

The marriage between Li Ershu and Li Tiansheng has long been a source of worry for her.

She has been watching the relationship between Li Tiansheng and Gu Chenxi heating up recently, and has been wondering in her heart when Li Ershu will meet his perfect match.

Unexpectedly, after going out with Gu Lili, her marriage was actually settled. How could she not be excited?

Gu Lili smiled and helped Old Mrs. Li sit down again, handing her a cup of tea.

"Grandma, you are old and your emotions cannot fluctuate so much. The wife my second uncle found is the richest woman in Jiangdu!" Gu Lili said with a smile.

Old Mrs. Li doesn't care whether he is the richest man or not.

As long as his son and the girl are in love with each other, it's enough.

Old Mrs. Li also realized that her actions just now were too exciting. She took Gu Lili's teacup and drank several sips of water before she calmed down.

Then he became worried again, quickly put down the teacup and pulled Gu Lili's hand over.

"Lili, talk to grandma. Since the Liu family only wants one daughter, does your second uncle have to become a son-in-law?" Old Mrs. Li asked worriedly.

Although she has three sons, they are all the apple of her eye.

If I really go there and become someone's son-in-law, will I be looked down upon?

If this really happened, Li Ershu didn't know when he would be able to come back from Jiangdu.

This is what it’s like to be a parent. You’re anxious if the marriage isn’t settled, and you’re also anxious if it is settled.

Gu Lili shook her head and said, "My second uncle is my elder, so I can't ask him about the specifics. I think it would be more appropriate for you to go to Jiangdu with Grandpa when you have time."

Marriage is a matter of parents' orders and matchmaker's words.

Naturally, Mrs. Li and Mr. Li had to visit in person, firstly to show that they knew etiquette, and secondly to see what the situation was.

After hearing this, Old Mrs. Li nodded, saying that this was indeed the case.

Although Jiangdu is a long way away, since the girl and his son have developed feelings for each other, he naturally has to visit the girl's mother in person.

This shows how much they value Liu Miaoyin.

"Lili, what you said makes sense. I will go home early tomorrow morning to discuss this matter with your grandfather. Then, I will go to Jiangdu to visit the Liu family in person."

After coming back for such a long time, Gu Lili didn't see Gu Yanyu and Li Qimu, and felt a little strange.

"Grandma, where are the two children?" Gu Lili asked.

Before Mrs. Li could speak, Gu Huanhuan answered the question first.

"Sister, my brother and cousin are still in school. Mr. Yuan said that my brother might be able to take the Tongsheng exam next Qingming Festival and hopefully pass it."

Gu Lili didn't know what the Tongshi exam was about. Gu Yanyu was still late in starting, and she didn't know if he could really pass the exam and become a Tongsheng as Master Yuan said.

However, regardless of whether you can pass the exam or not, it is still an exercise and you can give it a try.

Gu Lili understood, "Okay, then he should be back by dinner time. I'll go outside and see how the yard next door is being built."

I don’t know what the yard next door will be like what I expected.

Mrs. Li nodded and said with a smile, "You go ahead, I'll take care of the cooking!"

Gu Lili nodded and took Gu Huanhuan to the yard next door.

A side door was opened in the current yard to the next door, so you can enter the next door yard without going out.

Gu Lili went in through the side door and saw craftsmen doing the finishing work inside.

This yard is much bigger than the one where Gu Lili originally lived.

In terms of the layout, it is also a three-courtyard house. Gu Lili thought about it and decided that one courtyard would be used for the embroiderers, one courtyard would be used for making mother-of-pearl, and as for the other courtyard, just like the manor in Jiangdu, she would let Lao Zhou build bunk beds and use it as a place for the workers to stay.

Just now, Gu Chenxi and Li Ershu arranged Lao Zhou, Yu Yiru and others in the yard here.

Gu Lili and Gu Huanhuan took a look around and felt quite satisfied.

Just when he was about to go to Lao Zhou's room to discuss the bed-making issue with him, his feet were tripped by Xiao Li'er.

Gu Lili looked down and saw Xiao Lier looking at her with a resentful expression.

Just now, Gu Lili only asked him to go back to the yard and hide, but Gu Lili didn't come to look for it for a long time.

It was thinking about it urgently, so it came out on its own.

Gu Lili couldn't help but want to laugh when she saw Xiao Li'er like this.

She bent down and wanted to pick up the little cat and comfort it.

But after trying several times, he failed to pick it up.

"Oh, little Li'er, you've been eating so well recently! I can't even hold you in my arms after not seeing you for more than a month!" Gu Lili said with a smile.

The little fox didn't care that Gu Lili said it was fat, it just kept rubbing against Gu Lili.

Gu Huanhuan also raised her hand and stroked the little fox's fur and said, "Yes, it has been eating very well recently. Brother Wei Yin always takes it with him when he goes hunting in the mountains. He gives it all the delicious food he gets."

Gu Lili understood. No wonder this guy was so fat.

After petting the tiger for a while, Gu Lili simply took Xiao Lier to find Lao Zhou and the others.

The door was not closed, but Gu Lili knocked anyway.

Inside, Li Tiansheng was helping them make their beds.

At the moment, there is no bed, so we can only find some straw to spread on the ground. Fortunately, Gu Lili's family has no shortage of quilts.

The quilt was spread on the straw, and the bed was ready as long as Lao Zhou made it.

Lao Zhou and his companions heard the knock on the door and turned around at the same time.

When they saw Xiao Li'er again, the three old men reacted in unison and all stepped back.

"Master! How do you raise a tiger?" Old Zhou said tremblingly.

The reason why he was sure that the tiger was raised by Gu Lili was because at this moment the little fox was rubbing against Gu Lili's trouser legs affectionately like a kitten or puppy.

Gu Lili had originally wanted to introduce Xiao Lier to them.

Otherwise, if they really met Xiao Li'er alone, who knows how scared they would be.

Gu Lili explained with a smile, "Yes, its mother entrusted it to me, and I have been raising it ever since. Don't be afraid, it won't hurt you."

Lao Zhou and his companions couldn't help swallowing their saliva. Today's shock was really too great.

In front is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and behind is Gu Lili raising a tiger.

However, seeing that the little fox in front of Gu Lili was indeed harmless, they finally put their minds at ease.

Lao Zhou wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Master, you are really an amazing woman!"

At such a young age, he has had so many strange experiences.

Not only did she save the prince, she also raised a tiger. I wonder what people would think if they knew that Gu Lili was the famous county lord.
