Green Lotus Peasant Girl

The people who came were all close relatives and friends, but no one even mentioned Mrs. Qian. All of them said that the two were a perfect match, and they also expressed wishes for a bright future for the couple.

When Li Fu and Mrs. Qian got married, they didn't celebrate the occasion with such enthusiasm. At that time, Li Kui didn't give his blessings to the marriage, and he even threatened that he would disown him if they went against his wishes. All their neighbors and relatives scolded them and didn't give them any of their blessings.

Later as time went by, they changed their attitudes. At first glance, it seemed as if everyone was slowly accepting of them, but reality was very different. Li Qinghe remembered the people who were really close and sincere to her family.

It just so happened that her child started crying, and as there were so many people today, it was quite difficult to get to the kitchen to cook porridge. Li Qinghe took the child to her room and planned to breastfeed the baby in private. While reaching her room, she had to pass through Zhao Wanwan's room.The door was left open, and a young girl was making the bed inside.

She suddenly recalled the possibility that the little girl could be Liu Nizi’s daughter. Since the mother and daughter were homeless, and now that Liu Nizi had become a part of the family, she must have brought her daughter along with her.

When she was about to pass by outside the room, the girl inside noticed her and quickly came out of the room. She was a little nervous, as she said, "I...... are you sister Qinghe?"

Li Qinghe nodded. Her son was crying so much that she waved her hand, and said, "I am a little occupied right now, let's talk later."

After speaking, she hurriedly carried the child to the next room. After a quarter of an hour, the child fell asleep. After she got married, she had not come back to live in her room. There was no mattress on her bed, so it was impossible to sleep there. She was thinking about letting Zhou Changkang take the child back to their house.

As soon as she walked out of the room, she saw that the girl was standing near the door. She looked shy and full of nervousness. When she saw Li Qinghe open the door, she quickly asked, "Sister, do you need help?" Seeing the child was asleep, she suggested, "Why don't you put him to sleep in my room?"

Zhou Chengkang was busy talking to the guests, so to ask him to leave at this time was not a good idea. Li Qinghe nodded and put the child on her newly made bed. She chuckled and said, "I'll have to pick him up as soon as he wakes up, or else he will wet the bed."

"It doesn't really matter." The girl smiled shyly, "My mother calls me Zhaodi by the way."

Who would name their child Zhaodi?

*t/n: The name, Zhaodi was given to a child hoping the family's next child would be a son.

"Sister, you can go ahead, I'll guard the room. It doesn't matter if he wets the bed. My bed..." She reached out to touch it, "it has never been so soft before."

Li Qinghe was dumbfounded but walked out with her, "Then, I guess I'll have to trouble you for a bit."

Li Qinghe could clearly see that the girl was very grateful for all the things that were happening. The girl was timid, but not like Zhao Wanwan, who hid whenever something bad happened, nor did she dare to speak in front of people.

Seeing that she was sincerely willing to guard the room, Li Qinghe couldn't help but break a smile, "all the people outside will be your neighbors in the future. Let's go out and greet them."

From beginning to end, Li Qinghe didn't show any distance or strangeness toward Zhaodi. Her actions were normal as if Zhaodi was really her sister. Zhaodi remembered the days when she was often scolded, and couldn't help but smile, "Sister, you are so kind."
