Chapter 4 Is Senior Brother Really Innocent?

"Her fiancé's family is moving to the provincial capital, so they plan to get married early so that it will be convenient for them to go to the provincial capital together after the wedding.

Xiao Feng, I'm going to help my mother first, and I'll talk to you later."

Ximei pretended not to hear Yuan Feng's last question, blushing and hurried off to find her mother. This girl who studied medicine was different. She could ask such questions without hesitation...

For two consecutive months, Yuan Feng found the opportunity to talk to Ximei about little girl secrets, and they finally became close friends who could talk about anything. Although Ximei was still shy, she had already subtly expressed her mutual affection with Li Dongliang.

Secretly, he let Xiaoxu follow Li Dongliang. Yuan Feng always felt that there was something wrong with Li Dongliang. At the very least, Li Dongliang was not innocent in the tragedy of his previous life.

Xiaoxu looks like a little gray hamster and is difficult to find if you don't pay attention.

"Ximei, since you and my brother love each other, why haven't you gotten engaged yet?"

Ximei blushed, "Brother Dongliang said he wanted to save up some money to give me as a betrothal gift so I can marry him in style."

It can be heard that Ximei believes this statement very much, and even thinks that this shows how much Li Dongliang values ​​her.

Saving money? As far as Yuan Feng knew, Li Dongliang gave his monthly salary to his parents.

His family only had a few acres of low-quality land, and after paying taxes and grain, it was not enough to feed his own family.

Li Dongliang's father also had to take care of his two sons and occasionally do odd jobs for some wealthy families. However, these odd jobs were not common and the income was very unstable.

It could be said that the money Li Dongliang took home every month was the main source of income for the family. Under such circumstances, how could one save money? If he could really save money, Li Daniu wouldn't be still unmarried at the age of 22 or 23.

"What if he hasn't saved enough money?" Seeing Ximei's happy and determined look, Yuan Feng didn't tell the truth.

"Actually, my family doesn't care that much about the betrothal gift. As long as Brother Dongliang treats me well, that's enough." Ximei muttered softly.

Yuan Feng believed this. Ximei had only one brother, eight years her senior, who was married with two sons. He ran a grocery store and lived a good life.

Her mother was used to working at Yuan Feng's house. There wasn't much work to do, and they were neighbors, so she had never quit her job. Otherwise, she would have been enjoying family happiness at home.

As the youngest daughter in the family, Ximei is very much loved by her family.

The two chatted for a while before Ximei went to find her mother.

It was payday again, and Li Dongliang, like always, went home to deliver his wages and would stay home until the next morning.

Only the father and daughter were left for dinner.

"Dad, my senior brother is already nineteen years old, why haven't his parents arranged a marriage for him yet?" Yuan Feng was ready to sound out Doctor Wu's opinion first.

As for the second task, as long as you keep working hard, it will basically be no problem. Do the third task first, and then the first task...

The third task is to get Li Dongliang away from his home. It is neither difficult nor easy.

The difficulty lies in that Dr. Wu firmly believes the lies that Li Dongliang's parents said years ago that Li Dongliang would take care of him in his old age. He has treated him as his own son over the years, so he cannot drive him away for no reason.

"Xiao Feng, I was just about to tell you this. Dongliang's parents came to our house to propose marriage a few days ago, but I never found a chance to tell you."

"What, a marriage proposal? Me?"

Yuan Feng was really shocked. In his previous life, Li Dongliang did not agree to marry Wu Xiaofeng and even said that he treated her as his own sister. But in this life, he actually agreed?

Yuan Feng didn't think that this was something his parents did without telling him.

In fact, although it was his parents and his elder brother who caused the original owner's family to be destroyed in the previous life, after Wu Xiaofeng got into trouble, Li Dongliang seemed to have disappeared.

If he had stepped forward to suppress his parents at that time, at least his family might not have dared to come to their house and force them every day, and Dr. Wu would not have been angered to death.

After all, Li Dongliang has been paying money home every month for so many years, so he still has a certain say in the Li family.

"Silly girl, you are my only daughter. Who else could it be if not you?" Doctor Wu rarely saw his daughter looking so silly, and he couldn't help laughing.

"Dad, you didn't agree, did you? Does Senior Brother know about this?" Yuan Feng still wanted to confirm, in case he wrongly accused Li Dongliang...

"Not yet. The girl's family should be more reserved in this matter. How can they agree to it all at once? I told your uncle Li that he should ask your opinion first.

Your senior brother naturally knows, he was there at the time. You two have been childhood sweethearts, if you were to get married, I would be relieved!"

Doctor Wu suddenly felt a little sad. The little girl had grown up and was about to get married.

"Dad, do you know that Senior Brother and Ximei are in love?"

Yuan Feng said this quietly. It seemed that there was no need to probe further. The third task was about to be completed...

"What? Who told you that? How is that even possible?" This time it was Doctor Wu's turn to be shocked...

"Ximei said it herself. She said that Senior Brother is saving up money for her betrothal gifts."

"Impossible, when your senior brother comes back tomorrow, I will ask him in person!" Doctor Wu could not believe that the apprentice he had taught for so many years would be such a person.

......

The next day, Li Dongliang went directly to the clinic from home as usual.

"Dongliang, close the door. I want to ask you something!"

"Yes, Master." Li Dongliang was confused. After closing the door, he poured a cup of tea and handed it to Doctor Wu.

"Your parents are here to propose marriage. What do you think about this? Are there any difficulties?"

Doctor Wu hadn't slept all night, still unconvinced that Li Dongliang was such a person. If there was truly something unspeakable, Doctor Wu, considering their long-standing friendship, was willing to try to understand.

"Master, it was me who asked my parents to propose marriage, so how could it be difficult? Please help me!" Li Dongliang knelt down.

"Oh? So, you volunteered?"

"Yes, I know I am marrying up to my junior sister. Master, don't worry, I will treat my junior sister well for the rest of my life."

At this moment, Doctor Wu looked at Li Dongliang, his ears slightly red and his face full of innocence. He wondered if his daughter had made a mistake, or if Ximei was just wishful thinking.

"Get up! Since you asked, I believe your sincerity. But what's going on with Ximei?"

It's better to ask, just to clear up the misunderstanding. Otherwise, my daughter won't be able to marry Li Dongliang with peace of mind.

Li Dongliang had already stood up on one leg, but he knelt down again.

"Master, I..." Li Dongliang suddenly panicked.

Doctor Wu was worried. One moment he was already thinking about how to tell his daughter that it was a misunderstanding. The next moment, seeing Li Dongliang like this, what else could he not understand?

"Good! Good! Good! I didn't believe it at first, but now it seems to be true. Since you and Ximei are in love, why do you want to marry Xiaofeng? What are you thinking?"

"Master, I, I..."
