Chapter 42 Buying a Gift for My Sister-in-Law
Li Sui's insistence left the Li family speechless.

Li Jiashan frowned, and his kind tone became somewhat awkward: "Sui Sui, your grandmother and I are getting old, and we just want you children around. Your mother has been sulking with us for so many years, and it's time for her to go back now."

Li Sui looked at Li Jiashan sincerely: "Grandpa, so my mother can go back to fulfill her filial duties first. She is the one who has wronged you, and this is what she should do! But I am a grown-up now, and I should have my own life and be able to make my own decisions. I have some things to do right now and can't go back to the Li family, but don't worry, I will definitely go back to see you often when I have time!"

Another reason she didn't reply was that she wasn't really familiar with the Li family.

She doesn't like being in unfamiliar environments or forcibly cultivating any kind of family bond with a group of people.

Moon Community is so great. She has dominated for so many years. What will happen to the community residents when she leaves and they are not used to it?
Li Jiashan: "..."

Su Xiuyun: "..."

The elderly couple simply couldn't understand it.

At this moment, Li Shenglai finally couldn't hold back anymore. He looked at Li Sui and sneered, "If she doesn't want to go back, then she doesn't want to go back. It's not like we're begging her to go back."

Li Cheng glared at him and slapped Li Shenglai on the back of the head: "How dare you talk to your cousin like that?"

Li Jiashan glared at Li Shenglai, saying, "Have we been too lenient with you? Who are you talking to with that attitude?"

Yang Ningyu didn't expect that Li Shenglai would dare to directly challenge Li Sui, who was currently being pampered, in front of his grandparents. He subconsciously said to Li Sui, "Sui Sui, don't take it to heart with your younger brother. He's young and doesn't know any better."

Li Ping married earlier than Li Cheng.

Li Shenglai and Li Lingling are younger than Li Sui, but only by two years.

People in their twenties should know what to say and what not to say.

Although the Li family did not spoil their children too much, Li Shenglai learned of his extraordinary status as the young master of the Li family too early. He was fawned over by others outside and indulged by his mother at home.

My grandparents never gave me a hard time.

He was very unhappy when Li Ping got home.

For so many years, his family had never mentioned that he had a younger aunt; it was as if she had suddenly appeared out of nowhere for Li Sheng.

There's still this so-called cousin.

Li Shenglai retorted, "Where did I go wrong? Back then, it was her mother who refused to come back to our family. Now we have to beg them to come back? If they have such backbone, then why are they coming back now?"

"Li Shenglai!"

Yang Ningyu was dumbfounded; he never expected his son to say such a thing.

Li Lingling was shocked, thinking that her brother sometimes really didn't think before he spoke.

Su Xiuyun's usually kind face turned angry: "Li Shenglai! What nonsense are you spouting?"

Li Ping, however, seemed to enjoy watching the drama unfold. Even when Li Sheng brought it up, she wasn't angry. She just chewed on her chopsticks and added fuel to the fire: "What do you mean by having backbone? It was your grandparents who personally called me and asked me to come back. Are you going to say that your grandparents have no backbone?"

"..."

Li Jiashan scolded Li Ping impatiently, "Ah Ping, why are you arguing with a child like him?"

“Exactly!” Li Sui chimed in, “Mom, you’re something else too. Why are you, a woman in your forties, arguing with a mentally challenged man in his twenties? Aren’t you ashamed?”

The Li family: "..."

Li Shenglai immediately got angry: "What did you say? Say it again if you dare!"

Li Ping: "She said you're mentally challenged, and you can tolerate that?"

Li Shenglai: "..."

Are you and your daughter sick?!

The Li family was immediately thrown into chaos.

Li Cheng and Yang Ningyu, who initially thought Li Sui was well-behaved, eventually came to understand amidst the chaos of war.

Li Ping is not someone to be trifled with, and her daughter is even less so!
Because of Li Shenglai's change of heart, the lunch at the Li family's house ended on a sour note.

Li Jiashan and Su Xiuyun had already discerned that beneath Li Sui's well-behaved demeanor lay a free spirit just like her mother's. Therefore, they didn't mention returning to the Li family home, but instead went back to the hotel to rest and pack up for Li Sheng's arrival. Li Sui and Li Ping still needed to return to Moon Community; Li Ping needed to pack her things to go back to the Li family home.

In the car, Li Sui bit into a lollipop: "Are you really going back to the Li family?"

Looking out the car window, Li Ping said quietly, "Go back. Your grandmother's health is really not good, and I have to go back. I haven't been able to fulfill my filial duties all these years. They raised me for so many years, and this is what I should do. You have no responsibility to the Li family. If you don't want to go back at this stage, then don't go back."

"Oh." Li Sui wasn't reluctant. After all, she was twenty-three years old and it wasn't like she couldn't live without her mother. She just said, "Go after dinner tonight. You can say goodbye to Aunt Wu and Uncle Wu properly. Most importantly, it's my sister-in-law's birthday today. It's a good time for everyone to get together and have some fun."

Li Ping slowly turned her gaze back: "What's your sister-in-law's birthday?"

Li Sui replied casually, "The manufacturing date? Have you forgotten that your sister-in-law bought it last year?"

The driver suddenly glanced at Li Sui through the rearview mirror.

Li Sui grinned at the driver: "Oh, driver, don't be nervous, we were talking about the rice cooker."

driver:"……"

The old man became even more nervous.

Li Ping: "I can't tell if you're really playing with abstract concepts anymore, but you're already old enough, and I haven't taken you for a checkup. Now, whatever it is, it's probably too late to treat it."

Li Sui: “…”

With the driver looking slightly nervous, they arrived at the Moon Community.

Li Sui bought a red envelope at the community store and put 600 yuan in it as a gift.

With the rapid development of the times, the amount of money given as gifts has also increased.

Li Sui decided not to give away the six hundred for nothing, so he planned to invite Yu Liangliang, Guan Zhong, and Zhiniang over for dinner, just for the sake of creating a festive atmosphere.

With their appetites, my sister-in-law definitely couldn't handle it.

Let's all have some fun on this lively day!

She also bought a gift for her sister-in-law.

After browsing in the convenience store for a while, Li Sui finally settled on a stainless steel crown. After comparing the sizes, she asked the shopkeeper, "Boss, do you have a bigger crown?"

The shop owner casually asked, "Who are you giving this to?"

"Give it to my sister-in-law, it's a bit big and a bit fat."

The boss waved his hand: "This is the biggest one. It's okay if the head is a little big. If you tighten it, it won't fall off."

Li Sui glanced at it and said, "That works too."

So he asked the owner to wrap it up.

As evening approached, Wu Yang informed Li Sui that it was time for dinner.

Because it's their custom that they always eat dinner the day before any kind of feast.

Yu Liangliang returned with Guan Zhong and Zhiniang.

He was a little embarrassed: "You should have said it was your sister-in-law's birthday earlier. I thought you invited me over for a casual meal."

Weaver Girl was also very interested: "Is it your sister-in-law who cooks so well?"

Li Sui nodded: "Yes, but it's okay. My brother Yang and sister-in-law don't care about these formalities."

Yu Liangliang said, "How about I pick out a gift for your sister-in-law?"

Li Sui thought for a moment, "Then you should buy a good dishcloth. It won't hurt your gallbladder after washing, and my sister-in-law will definitely like it."

Yu Liangliang: "?"

Isn't this gift a bit too bizarre and casual?
