Chapter 152
152 I Can Prove It
Li Yan recalled carefully and said, “No matter what I say, you won’t believe me, but I can prove it! In the dream, a few days later, He Hui, who everyone in the village said was a widow, is revealed to actually have a son. It was her man, Guan Dongshan, who brought her son back! Many people said that he was Guan Dongshan’s son with someone else!”
Li Qiang and Wang Ying were skeptical.
“Why don’t we observe the situation first?! If our daughter’s dream is real, we can verify it in a few days! Anyway, didn’t the other party say that they would wait for us to reply? It’s normal for us to consider it for a few days!” Wang Ying said.
Li Qiang also loosened up a little.
After all, no matter how rich this family was, they couldn’t compare to an official’s son-in-law!
If the dream their daughter had was real, wouldn’t they be in-laws when their daughter became an official’s wife in the future?
At that time, they could also benefit from it!
Not to mention anything else, at least in the future, the two of them would be able to do whatever they wanted in the village!
At the thought of this scene, Li Qiang felt excited.
He liked the feeling of no one daring to cause him trouble in the village.
If that was the case, Li Qiang would see who dared to look down on him in the future!
“Alright, let’s wait a few more days!” Li Qiang finally agreed.
Seeing that her father had relented, Li Yan heaved a sigh of relief.
As long as her parents were willing to believe this dream, she could successfully marry Pei Xuanxin.
After Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng ate their fill, they went out to dig for the last herb after the rain stopped. Then, they returned to the stone house to tidy up.
The harvest on the mountain was quite bountiful, so the two of them left some marinated game to hang in the stone house and brought everything else back.
On the way down the mountain, Li Xiaoran suddenly thought of something.
“Husband, didn’t you say you wanted to bring me to the wine cellar?”
Luo Cheng immediately laughed when he heard Li Xiaoran’s words.
“Don’t worry, I’ll keep my word. However, this wine cellar is not deep in the mountains. You can only see it when you go down the mountain!”
Li Xiaoran was stunned for a moment before understanding.
It turned out that she had been wrong all along. The wine cellar was not on the mountain at all.
“Then why didn’t you say so earlier?!” Li Xiaoran pouted and was a little angry.
“It’s not too late for me to say it now! As an apology, I’ll give you a jar of fruit wine, okay?” Luo Cheng said with a smile.
“That depends on how good your fruit wine is. If it’s not good, I won’t be in a good mood!” Li Xiaoran raised her eyebrows and said.
“I guarantee you’ll be satisfied!” Luo Cheng said confidently.
Li Xiaoran complained to herself that it would be difficult to satisfy her. After all, she had drunk so many delicious drinks in the modern world. It would be a little difficult to make her feel satisfied.
As it turned out, Luo Cheng was quite capable.
The wine cellar was actually in a cave not far from the Luo family’s house.
Luo Cheng had asked someone to dig this cave, so very few people knew about it.
When Li Xiaoran saw that the cave was filled with wine jars of all sizes, she was immediately shocked.
“There’s actually so much wine? Oh my god, no wonder you want to open a wine shop!”
Li Xiaoran roughly counted that there were definitely more than ten thousand wine jars stored here.
“This is just a wine cellar. I have several more!” Luo Cheng couldn’t help but show off when he saw Li Xiaoran’s shocked expression.
“Sigh, it’s a pity that I’m not a wine lover. Otherwise, I would be very happy!” Li Xiaoran couldn’t help but sigh when she saw so many wine jars.
“It’s okay. In the future, I’ll make a lot of delicious fruit wine for you to drink. That way, you’ll be very happy!” Luo Cheng walked forward and held Li Xiaoran’s hand as he promised.
“Let me try your fruit wine first!” Li Xiaoran thought for a moment and said.
The corners of Luo Cheng’s mouth curled up slightly. Then, he went to the wine cellar and found two jars of wine.
“Let’s go home now! When we get home, I’ll let you try the good wine I made!”
Li Xiaoran didn’t say anything and left the wine cellar with Luo Cheng.
Seeing that their daughter and son-in-law had returned safely with a deer and many wild animals, Li Shun and Zhao Xiu felt at ease.
“Did you encounter heavy rain on the mountain yesterday?” Li Shun went forward to take everything and asked with concern.
“That’s right! Fortunately, we had a stone house on the mountain and a fireplace that could burn firewood, so we avoided the storm!” Li Xiaoran explained briefly.
“It’s really as Ziyang said! Thank goodness you two are fine!” Zhao Xiu said thankfully.
“Father, Mother, I’m sorry for making you two worry! We also wanted to come back early, but the wind and rain on the mountain were too strong. It was too dangerous for us to go down the mountain, so we stayed on the mountain!” Li Xiaoran also knew that her parents were worried about her, so she said apologetically.
“What are you saying?! In that situation, you two definitely have to prioritize your own safety!” Li Shun said with a disapproving expression.
“That’s right. Your father is right. Your safety is the most important thing! As long as you’re fine, we’re relieved!” Zhao Xiu quickly echoed, “You don’t know, but when you two went to the mountain, Li Yan ran up the mountain as well. You two didn’t come back all night and only came back this morning. When Li Qiang saw that Li Yan was missing, he even brought people to us to ask for her. Fortunately, Ziyang chased him away!”
Luo Cheng’s expression darkened when he heard this.
“Ziyang, what exactly is going on?”
Luo Ziyang told him what had happened that morning without hiding anything.
After Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran heard this, they sneered.
“This is really a case of a thief shouting to catch the thief! Previously, when my husband and I went up the mountain, we sensed that someone was following us. Later on, we realized that the people following us were Li Yan and a man we had never seen before. Later on, my husband shook off these two people, so we weren’t followed by them. How ironic that we were accused instead!” Li Xiaoran laughed in anger. “If I had known that the Li family was like this, I would have slapped Li Yan a few more times last time!”
“Sister, you slapped Li Yan?” Li Xiaoqing asked excitedly.
“That’s right. Last time, when I was making braised food at home, I came out to see how we should plant crops in our land when I saw Li Yan appear in our orchard. Li Yan was trying to sow discord between our family. Moreover, once Li Yan appeared, it reminded me of when I hit my head previously and was slapped by Li Yan, so I became so angry that I slapped her a few times!” Li Xiaoran nodded and said.
