Chapter 1032 -1031: The Right Candidate

Naughty and active is not all; he can also eat and sleep a lot.

Di Ying chuckled, “Mom, I have to admit, I really admire Chouchou for this. His ability to adapt to any situation isn’t something you’d expect from a kid like him.”

“Indeed…”

Liu Sisi shook her head helplessly and stepped into the Ancestral Hall.

The Di Family’s Ancestral Hall was renovated after Liu Sisi entered the capital, by people sent by the Di Family. It was located right behind the Di family’s yard.

The Hall was refurbished with exceptional attention to detail. It was a residence with three courtyards, exuding ancient charm, and much more splendid than the homes of most people in the village.

As she gently pushed open the main entrance to the Ancestral Hall, what came into view was indeed the small head of a child fast asleep on a pumpon.

Three large pompoms were placed close together by him. Chouchou lay sprawled on top of them, with his chubby little face to the side, seemingly dreaming about something. His lips involuntarily moved, murmuring a few sleep-talk words.

Liu Sisi quietly approached and slowly crouched beside him.

She brushed aside the hair on his cheek, eager to see his eyebrows slightly furrowed in discomfort. He subconsciously rubbed his little head a few times and softly called out, “Mom, Chouchou misses you…”

A sudden twinge in her heart made her take a deep breath in pain.

Yet deep down, she let out a sigh of relief.

Liu Sisi then realized that although she thought she could harden her heart and ignore him, upon seeing him now, she recognized that her heart had never truly been at ease.

The reason she had ignored him was because she clearly knew that even if she didn’t care, Ye Lei would never give up on this child. That was why she felt so secure.

Watching Chouchou sleeping soundly, Di Ying instinctively opened her mouth to call out.

“Chou…”

“Shh!—”

Liu Sisi stopped her calling and silently sat beside him, quietly watching his sleeping face, unable to resist reflecting on what Di Yelei had discussed with her last night.

Too much maternal love spoils the children!

While Chouchou is still young, she needs to discipline him carefully; she cannot allow her son’s future to be ruined by her own hands.

As the moonlight gradually slanted westward, before Chouchou woke, Liu Sisi and YingEr quietly left the Ancestral Hall.

“Mom, why didn’t you talk to Third Brother? He has been eagerly awaiting your return.”

Di Ying seemed very anxious.

“And after I speak with him? He will only become more anxious. It’s better to let him contemplate in there. Let’s wait for your dad to come home before letting him out.”

Thinking of how she always couldn’t bear to be strict with her children, she would rather entrust the responsibility of disciplining them to Di Yelei.

She looked back at YingEr, “Has there been anything happening at home recently?”

“Well, there hasn’t been any major incident…”

Di Ying seemed to have something difficult to say.

“But what happened? If there’s an issue, just tell me straight.”

“It’s just that Second Elder Sister came looking for you several times, but I’ve told her you were recovering from an illness at the farm. But it seems like Second Elder Sister doesn’t quite believe it.”

Di Wei, is it?

“She has been turning to me frequently, it must be concerning her own lifelong event, right?”

Just the thought of this matter gave Liu Sisi a headache.

Finding a match that is too low may not satisfy Di Wei and wouldn’t suffice for her either. But if it’s too high, she feared the other party wouldn’t take a fancy to her. Truly, it was a dilemma whether to advance or retreat.

“Has Sister Guihua been over these days? What about Zhang Yun, that child? Has he come back?”

“Brother Yun came by yesterday, and Aunt Zhang has been sending food over every day, Mom, you don’t have to worry. Look what Mom…”

Di Ying presented a bracelet from her hand for Liu Sisi to see: “This is what Aunt Zhang gave me a few days ago…”

Seeing the bashfulness on Di Ying’s face, Liu Sisi couldn’t help but gently remind her.

“Sister Guihua is very good to you, you mustn’t forget your roots. Get along well with her, relationships between people are all about how you handle them. If you put yourself in the other person’s shoes, your road ahead will be much smoother…”

As she spoke, she couldn’t help but think about Di Ying’s frail health and felt a faint worry creeping in. What if YingEr were to marry off and indeed was unable to conceive… what then?

YingEr, with a face full of happiness, leaned on Liu Sisi’s arm: “I got it already! Mom, you’ve said it a thousand times. Don’t you get tired of it?”

“Alright, alright, if Mom doesn’t say it, won’t that do? Our YingEr has grown up.”

Liu Sisi shook her head helplessly.

After thinking for a while, she went to the Zhang Family again.

Sure enough, Guihua was at home, surrounded by several married women engaging in gossip. The moment they saw Liu Sisi, their eyes lit up!

“Sisi, why have you come back? Aren’t you supposed to be recuperating at the farm? How come you returned so soon?”

As she spoke, Guihua quickly got up and pulled her down to sit.

The other married women, tactful as they were, promptly took their leave.

Liu Sisi sat down nonchalantly: “You’re well aware of the trouble Chou Chou caused, and right now, Feng’er is still in confinement. It’s difficult for me to be at ease staying at the farm. Taking advantage of my better health, I came back.”

Guihua, who had weathered many storms with Liu Sisi over the years, could easily see the slight sorrow in her eyes.

She hurriedly consoled her: “You! You’re just born to toil! I’ve heard about the trouble Chou Chou caused, its reasons and consequences, and honestly, the kid isn’t to blame for this incident. It’s something he wouldn’t want to see either. He’s been locked up in the Ancestral Hall for some days now. Who knows how heartbroken he is. Maybe you should go see him?”

“I’ve seen him already, I just came out from the Ancestral Hall.”

Liu Sisi didn’t keep anything from Guihua and shared the details of her visit to Chou Chou.

It made Guihua laugh: “When Chou Chou wakes up and realizes he missed your visit, he’s probably going to be so upset.”

“That child… His sorrow is just temporary; he has always been so carefree… But I came to you today specifically for something we talked about a few days ago.”

Liu Sisi recalled their recent conversation about Di Wei’s marriage, hence the mention.

“What’s the matter? Is there a problem?”

“No big issues, just that Di Wei is not getting any younger, and it’s about time to settle her marriage matters.” Liu Sisi finally expressed her dilemma.

A look of realization crossed Guihua’s face, so it was about Di Wei’s marriage!

The agreement between Sisi and Di Gaoyuan from years ago determined that it would be Liu Sisi who would decide on Di Wei’s marriage. If not for that, Di Wei would probably have been long traded off by Di Gaoyuan. Having such a father really leaves one speechless!

“Sisi, speaking of Di Wei’s marriage, I actually have a suitable candidate in mind, but I don’t know if you would be satisfied with him?”

Guihua suddenly recalled someone.
