The Hunter's Lucky Little Lady

273 Not Being Disappointed

“Don’t you think it’s a pity?” Luo Cheng looked at Li Xiaoran and asked.

“Why would I? The reason I set up the noodle stall in the first place was to earn money and improve my family’s life. I don’t want my family to be a burden to you, nor do I want my family to lose the ability to support themselves. As it turns out, my family is hardworking and kind. They want to be financially independent instead of relying on others! I’m actually very happy that my father offered to move out!”

In this world, it was better to rely on oneself than anyone else.

Only if one was financially independent would the money one earned feel right.

!!

If one kept asking others for money, not only would one lose one’s dignity, but one would also become a good-for-nothing.

Li Xiaoran hoped that her family’s lives would get better and better, but she didn’t want them to become good-for-nothings.

“Then how should we settle the matter of Father farming for us?” Luo Cheng asked when he remembered something.

Li Xiaoran thought for a moment and said, “That’s simple. Let’s see what my father thinks! If he still wants to farm, we can split the profits 50-50.”

“I think Father seems to have become quite fond of making furniture recently. Maybe he can make a living off of this!” Luo Cheng thought of something and reminded her.

Li Xiaoran had already noticed this, so she smiled when Luo Cheng mentioned this.

“It doesn’t matter. It depends on what Father wants to do! If he wants to do both, then he can do both. If he only wants to focus on one thing, then let him focus on one thing. In short, let’s do as he wants!”

With that, Li Xiaoran looked at Luo Cheng. “My father is already old. In the past, he was suppressed by Grandpa and Grandma and couldn’t do anything. Now, let’s give him more freedom! As long as he wants to do something, I’ll support him!”

When Luo Cheng heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he suddenly realized what respect was.

it was just like how Li Xiaoran never interfered in what he did. She always gave him the greatest respect and trust.

Luo Cheng smiled at the thought.

“You’re right. We’ll just do as you say!”

“Then what are you planning to do in the future?” Luo Cheng suddenly thought of something and asked, “Have you thought about what you want to do after you hand over your noodle stall business and fast food business to your parents?”

“Is there a need to think about it? Aren’t there so many things waiting for me to do? Roast fish, fish ponds, and oil mills, are all things I want to do. I hope that one day, I can let those soldiers who protect the country have a place to live. I want them to live the rest of their lives with happiness!” Li Xiaoran said with a smile.

Luo Cheng was stunned for a moment. He didn’t expect Li Xiaoran to say that.

“They’ll have someone to rely on! They won’t be let down after all their sacrifices! Just based on this girl’s words today, I didn’t make this trip in vain!” At this moment, a sixty-year-old man appeared in front of the two of them and looked at Li Xiaoran with a gratified expression.

“I was wondering what kind of girl could win over Luo Cheng? It seems that she’s indeed extraordinary! With just your kind intentions, you overshadow all the daughters of the rich and powerful in the capital!”

Li Xiaoran looked at the old man in front of her in surprise, then turned to look at Luo Cheng.

From what this old man said, he probably knew Luo Cheng.

“Elder Xu, you’re already so old, so why didn’t you stay at home to rest? Why did you come to such a remote place?” Luo Cheng didn’t smile. Instead, he looked impatient as he said in disdain.

“I knew you didn’t welcome me! What’s wrong? You brought all my subordinates here, so why won’t you let me come over and take a look?!” Elder Xu ignored Luo Cheng’s displeased expression as he walked in. “Hey, why are you guys acting so cowardly? Hurry up and come in!”

As soon as Elder Xu finished speaking, a group of people walked in one after another.

Li Xiaoran looked at these people and was shocked.

This was because there were far more people than previously mentioned. At a glance, there were almost a hundred people!

Luo Cheng was speechless when he saw the crowd.

“General Luo, you won’t be able to leave us behind this time! We’ll follow you no matter what!” a tan burly man shouted.

When Luo Cheng heard this, he looked at the burly man and frowned.

“What’s wrong? How did you get yourself into this state? Did you slack off on training after I left?”

The boor grinned and smiled foolishly.

“I do. I practice every day! The reason I lost my leg was that I got pierced by an arrow. The arrow was poisoned, so I lost a leg!” The burly man smiled and said, “Actually, I’m already very satisfied to be able to survive!”

After Luo Cheng heard what he said, he walked over silently and patted him on the shoulder.

“Where are your buddies? Is everyone okay?”

At the mention of this, the boor’s smile disappeared.

“Sixth Brother is gone. Hei Zi is missing. He’s probably gone too! The other buddies are fine, but they’re still in the military camp!”

When Luo Cheng heard this, he was stunned. It took him a while to suppress his sadness.

“Alright, follow me from now on. There are many things for you to do here!”

With that, Luo Cheng turned around and walked over to pull Li Xiaoran’s hand up.

“You heard what my wife said just now! As long as you do your job well, the two of us will do our best to let you guys eat your fill and have warm clothes to wear. If you’re sick, there’ll be a doctor to treat you and medicine to take! But you have to remember that I, Luo Cheng, can’t tolerate traitors. When you come here, work diligently. You don’t have to worry about your injured buddies. We have something for everyone to do here! As long as everyone works together, you can all live a better life!”

“Thank you, General! Thank you, Madam! We’ll do our best!” more than a hundred men shouted in unison.

“I’m not a general anymore, so you can’t call me a general outside. In order not to attract attention, you can call me Boss in the future and call my wife Madam. Now, I’ll bring you to the barren mountain to take a look. Let’s settle everyone down first!” Luo Cheng reminded them, then walked to the barren mountain with Li Xiaoran and a group of people.

Seeing this, Elder Xu followed. He didn’t need Luo Cheng to tell him at all.

Fortunately, the barren mountain was at the edge of Luo Cheng’s garden and was very close. They didn’t have to walk far.

At this moment, some thatched houses had been built at the foot of the mountain.
