After parking the bicycle, Li Chenmo and Lu Jueyu walked over and greeted them, "Father, eldest brother, sister-in-law."
"Eldest brother, we are here to invite Father and your family to lunch. Yesterday was Xiao Huang’s birthday, and we wanted to invite our family to celebrate with her today." Lu Jueyu said with a smile.
Hearing her words, Father Li remembered his previous conversation with Dong Li and nodded. This is a great way to get the children used to being part of the family faster. Both of you should pay more attention to the children’s feelings."
"Third son, have you invited your wife’s family?" Father Li asked.
"Father, we just came back from my parents-in-law’s house." Li Chenmo said.
"Good. Even if your wife becomes the daughter-in-law of our Li family, she is still their only daughter. So, you should let her go back to visit her parents more often," Father Li reminded him.
"Father, my husband often goes with me to visit my parents," Lu Jueyu said.
Seeing his third daughter-in-law truly like his third son, Father Li smiled. It’s great to see his sons have a harmonious family.
"Third sister-in-law, do you need me to help you cook later?" Zhang Dongmei asked.
"Eldest sister-in-law, thank you for your offer. However, there is no need to disturb you. I have enough time to prepare since we must wait until the children come back from school." Lu Jueyu said.
"Okay. If you need help, let me know. Don’t tire yourself out."
Li Chenmo sat down next to his father, and while helping him weave a bamboo basket, he asked, "Father, how are you doing lately? Are you still taking your medicine?"
When Father Li heard this, he nodded and said with a smile, "Your elder brother is watching over me. How can I not take medicine? With the addition of the nourishment sent by your wife, I feel very good and can walk for a long time now. Don’t worry."
Nodding after listening to his words, Li Chenmo said in a low voice, "Father, I plan to sell the grain received after the distribution day."
When Father Li heard this, he looked at his third son in surprise. Thinking of the way his third son’s family used to eat meat and rice, he thought that all the money had been used up and he wanted to earn some money by selling grains, so he asked worriedly, "Third son, if you sell the grain, what will your family eat until next year?"
Li Chenmo already knew that his father would react like this and explained, "Father, don’t worry. My friend has found someone who sells grains with better quality and lower prices. Recently, food shortages have occurred everywhere. As a result, food prices have increased several times."
"My friends and I plan to sell our grains at higher prices and buy higher quality grains. Although we don’t make much money, we can eat better quality grains," he added.
