Started as a poor little girl

Chapter 47: Focus on your career

Yue Xiangmei picked up her daughter and returned to the house. She looked at the place where Wei Lingheng had lain, the neatly folded quilt, and the empty cabinet.

Woo woo woo woo... Li Lulu burst into tears. She has been like this since she was a child. She attaches too much importance to feelings. Even if the kittens and puppies she raised leave for the dog planet or the cat planet, she will be sad for many days.

When she was a child, her parents went out to work and she cried for a month before her grandparents coaxed her into submission. Wei Lingheng was the first friend she made in this world, and he just left without looking back. She was really sad.

Yue Xiangmei knew that her daughter was very sad. After all, Qingqing helped her daughter when she was in the most difficult time and brought her home. She was really a good child. But she didn't expect Lulu to be so sad.

Li Lulu was in a sad mood that day, her eyes were swollen from crying, and she refused to eat. Everyone took turns to come over to worry about her, but she didn't say a word.

Yue Xiangmei was very worried, so she asked Li Qingping to go and invite the chef who was organizing the banquet by himself. She went to the chef's house yesterday but didn't see him, so she decided to try her luck today.

In the afternoon, Yue Xiangmei saw that her daughter still hadn't cheered up, so she picked up Li Lulu and returned to the village.

She didn't feel any better after returning home, so she went back to her room. She was tired of crying, so she curled up in the quilt and fell asleep.

The next morning, Li Lulu felt much better. After eating something, she took a hoe and went to the yard to plant flowers. When she was tired, she would take a break and continue.

"Lulu! The sun is shining brightly today. Come with grandpa for a walk and some sun basking!" Li Dashan said in a gentle tone, with his hands behind his back.

Li Lulu followed Li Dashan. He just wanted to take his granddaughter out for a walk. When they passed by a small hill not far behind the house, Li Dashan took her in for a stroll. They passed a small river at the foot of the hill.

It's March now, and the riverside is full of spring. The breeze blows across the water, making the ripples sparkle and reflecting the blue sky and white clouds.

The willow trees were swaying gently, and their branches were drooping. Li Lulu fiddled with the drooping willow branches, and her mood suddenly became much better. The flowers on both sides of the river bank were blooming, butterflies were dancing, and bees were busy collecting nectar.

The river water was crystal clear and small fishes were swimming freely in the water. Li Dashan sat on a big rock under a willow tree and looked at his granddaughter with a smile on her face, and he curled the corners of his mouth unconsciously.

"Grandpa, look, there are small fish in the river. I wonder if they are delicious or not, hehe!" Li Lulu ran to the river, poking the water with willow twigs, then turned around and said to her grandfather.

"Lulu, do you want to catch some fish? Then grandpa will go back and get the net." Li Dashan said as he was about to get up and go home to get the net.

Seeing this, Li Lulu quickly turned around and ran over to grab Li Dashan's arm, frowning and saying, "Grandpa, no need, let's go play in the mountains. There should be a lot of flowers blooming now, they must be very beautiful."

"Okay, this is our own mountain. You can look around and pick whatever you want. If you like, you can dig them up and take them home to plant in your yard." Li Dashan smiled brightly and led his granddaughter up the mountain.

"Ah! This mountain belongs to us?" Li Lulu asked in disbelief. The original owner had no memory of this.

Then he thought: No, it seems that the original owner and Li Zhenzhu came to this mountain before. Although this mountain is not too high, it is very wide. How come the original owner's family is so poor with such a small mountain?

"Well, it's like this. Our family was quite wealthy when your great-grandfather was still alive. Most of the village was almost entirely our farmland. Later on, it gradually declined, and only half of the farmland and a small hill were left." Li Dashan recalled, his thoughts seeming to go back to his childhood.

"When your great grandfather and I got married, some was given to us. Then some was given to us after we had children. Later, when your great grandfather and his family passed away, the rest was divided equally between your great grandfather and I." Li Dashan let out a long sigh and explained the whole story.

"Ah! So, logically speaking, this mountain should belong to us and Grandpa half each, right?" Li Lulu didn't quite understand, so she asked.

"Well, when I bought the land, I added some silver to buy the other half. When your grandfather heard that it was for you, he just sold it. He wanted to leave it to our Lulu in the future. He thought that Lulu should be useful! If it is useless, he can just plant flowers for our Lulu! Hahahaha..." Li Dashan smiled and reached out to touch his granddaughter's little head.

"Thank you, Grandpa. Lulu likes it so much. Lulu is so happy!" Li Lulu hugged Li Dashan's arm and giggled.

The grandfather and grandson found a piece of grass to enjoy the beautiful scenery. In March, the new green leaves and beautiful flowers on the mountain were interwoven into a vibrant picture.

The sun shines through the blue sky into the forest, casting dots of sunshine. Along the winding path, cherry blossoms and peach blossoms compete for beauty, as if covered with a layer of pink gauze. The spring breeze blows gently, the branches sway, and the fragrance of flowers fills the air, making people feel relaxed and happy.

In this peaceful mountain area, Li Lulu's sad mood disappeared completely. She decided not to think about the bad guy Wei Lingheng anymore. She had to concentrate on her career.

"Grandpa, thank you. I'm sorry for making you worry these past two days." Li Lulu lowered her head with a guilty look on her face. She had felt so miserable these past two days that she felt sorry for worrying about her family.

"It's okay. It's normal to be sad. After all, Grandpa doesn't want to let Qing go. Besides, she is Lulu's friend and benefactor. It's normal to be sad. Now that Lulu is not sad, it's good." Li Dashan spoke gently. He sat on a stone under the tree. With spots of sunlight shining on him, he looked like a kind old immortal.

"Grandpa is the best." Li Lulu stood up from the grass and walked around the area.

Li Lulu chased the butterfly, and only took a few steps! Li Lulu found a sea of ​​purple astragalus flowers, with bees and butterflies flying among the flowers. Li Lulu jumped into the sea of ​​flowers and smelled the faint fragrance of the flowers. She was so happy!

She was rolling around in the sea of ​​flowers and bumped into a tree without paying attention.

When Li Dashan saw his granddaughter bumped into something, he quickly ran over to help Li Lulu up and brushed off the weeds and petals on her body.

"Are you okay, Lulu? Tell grandpa where you got hit." Li Dashan frowned and looked at his granddaughter worriedly.

"It's okay, Grandpa. It doesn't hurt at all. The tree is so small. How can it hurt?" Li Lulu pointed to a small tree next to her that was two meters tall and only as thick as her wrist.

She took a closer look and shouted in surprise, "Oh my god, Grandpa, we found a treasure, this is a turtledove leaf, so great."

Li Dashan didn't understand why his granddaughter was so happy. It was just an ordinary tree. What was there to be happy about? However, he would not disappoint his granddaughter.

"What kind of treasure is this? What's the use of it? The leaves stink." Li Dashan still didn't understand what the use of these stinky leaves was.

"Grandpa, you will know when the time comes. In May, we will go up the mountain to pick its leaves and I will make delicious food for you."

Li Lulu's tone was cheerful, she saw another business opportunity. Upon closer inspection, there was more than one tree, there were more than twenty trees in this area. Looking at these trees, Li Lulu's eyes were sparkling. These were not just trees, they were pure silver.

The reason why Li Lulu knew the use of the turtledove leaf was when she was a child in modern times. When she was a child, there were no snacks in the mountains. There were only wild fruits on the mountain and the fruits grown by her grandparents as snacks.

One day she saw her friends eating jelly and she wanted to eat it very much. Her grandmother said that they had jelly at home and she knew how to make it. She said she would go out and get the ingredients for her later.

In the afternoon, her grandparents took her to the mountain to herd cattle. Her grandfather put her on the cow's back and led the cow up the mountain. When they reached the grassland halfway up the mountain, her grandparents stopped.

Grandpa took her down from the cow's back to play, and Li Lulu followed around behind her grandmother.

Grandma picked a bag of leaves from a nearby tree. Li Lulu smelled them and found them stinky. After herding the cows and returning home, grandma made a bowl of green tofu with the leaves and gave Li Lulu a bowl of it, putting a spoonful of sugar in it. It was delicious, even better than jelly.

Later, Li Lulu always pestered her grandmother to eat green tofu. When she grew up and went to the city with her parents, she had never eaten the turtledove tofu again. She felt a little greedy just thinking about it.

"Then grandpa will wait for Lulu to prepare delicious food." Grandpa's voice came into her ears, bringing her thoughts back.

"Okay, it's getting late, Grandpa, let's go home!" Li Lulu was about to support Li Dashan, but was rejected by him.

"Grandpa, you don't need any support. I'm in good health!" Li Dashan walked to the front, walking briskly, and indeed did not need any support.
