Chapter 299 Efforts are not in vain

Lou Xiao'e turned around and looked at him with concern. "Xiang Qian, you have been working very hard recently. It's a good idea to buy some vegetables. I'll go with you."

Li Xiangqian nodded, "Okay, I feel more motivated to have you go with me."

After breakfast, the two set out for the market. Walking on the street, Li Xiangqian felt the morning breeze and gradually relaxed. He held Lou Xiaoe's hand, silently grateful for her companionship and support.

Arriving at the market, Li Xiangqian and Lou Xiao'e began to carefully select vegetables. They first came to a stall selling spinach. Li Xiangqian looked at the fresh spinach, picked a few handfuls and handed them to the stall owner, smiling and saying, "Xiao'e, spinach is rich in iron and vitamins, which is good for the body."

Lou Xiao'e nodded. "Yes, spinach is good. Let's look at carrots and tomatoes. They are also high in vitamins."

Li Xiangqian smiled and replied, "Good idea, let's go over there and take a look."

The two walked around the market, picking fresh vegetables. Li Xiangqian felt happy, and this simple life made him feel extremely happy. After buying vegetables, they also bought some fruits to add some color and nutrition to their home.

Back at the courtyard, Li Xiangqian and Lou Xiao'e began to wash and cut vegetables to prepare a sumptuous lunch. Li Xiangqian picked up a carrot and peeled it carefully, thinking that he must make a nutritious meal for his family today.

"Xiao E, what kind of vegetables do you like to eat? I want to make a vegetable stew today." Li Xiangqian asked while peeling the vegetables.

Lou Xiao'e smiled and replied, "I like to eat scrambled eggs with tomatoes and stir-fried spinach. Xiang Qian, all the dishes you cook are delicious."

Li Xiangqian felt satisfied after hearing this. "Okay, let's make these dishes. I'll add some carrots and green peppers to enrich the taste."

It was lunch time. Li Xiangqian brought out a plate of delicious dishes. Looking at the sumptuous meal, Lou Xiaoe exclaimed, "Xiangqian, you are such a good cook. Eating like this is not only nutritious, but also makes us happy."

Li Xiangqian smiled and said, "Xiao E, I feel very happy to cook for you. We must take good care of ourselves. Only when we are healthy can we better face the various challenges in life."

After lunch, Li Xiangqian and Lou Xiao'e rested in the yard, enjoying the rare quiet time. Li Xiangqian looked at the blue sky, his heart full of longing for the future.

"Xiao E, I was thinking that we can go to the market to buy vegetables more often in the future. This will not only ensure the nutrition of our meals, but also allow us to spend more time together." Li Xiangqian suggested.

Lou Xiao'e leaned on his shoulder and whispered, "Xiang Qian, I also like this simple life. As long as we are together, we are happy no matter what we do."

Li Xiangqian felt a warm feeling, he held Lou Xiaoe's hand tightly, and secretly vowed in his heart that he would use his efforts and sincerity to give her a happy future. He knew that every detail in life needed to be managed with care, only in this way could their feelings become deeper.

At night, Li Xiangqian sat in his study, recalling everything that happened today, his heart filled with gratitude and satisfaction. He knew that with Lou Xiao'e by his side, he had endless motivation to work hard and struggle. Although their lives were ordinary, they were full of happiness and hope.

Since the last incident, Li Xiangqian has been concerned about Li Lili's mood. He knows that although Lili has regained her former vitality on the surface, she must still have a shadow in her heart. In order to help his sister get out of the shadow completely, he decided to buy her a new schoolbag, hoping to bring her some comfort and surprise.

One weekend morning, Li Xiangqian and Lou Xiao'e discussed and decided to go to the mall together to pick out a new schoolbag for Lili. After breakfast, Li Xiangqian said to Lou Xiao'e gently, "Xiao'e, let's go buy a new schoolbag for Lili today. She has always liked those beautiful schoolbags. I want to give her a surprise."

Lou Xiao'e smiled and nodded, "Good idea, Lili will be very happy. Let's go choose together."

The two of them came to the mall, and Li Xiangqian carefully selected at each schoolbag counter. He thought to himself that he must buy a schoolbag that is both practical and beautiful, so that Lili can feel happy and confident when she sees it. They walked to a schoolbag counter with bright colors and fashionable styles. Li Xiangqian picked up a pink schoolbag with patterns and said to Lou Xiaoe, "Xiaoe, what do you think of this? Lili should like it, right?"

Lou Xiao'e took a look and nodded, "This one looks great, and the color suits Lili very well. Let's see if there are other styles to choose from."

Li Xiangqian nodded, and the two continued to choose in the mall, and finally decided to buy the pink schoolbag with patterns. Li Xiangqian was full of expectations, and thinking about Lili's expression when she saw the schoolbag, he felt warm and satisfied.

After returning home, Li Xiangqian hid the new schoolbag in the room and decided to give Lili a surprise when she came home from school. In the evening, Li Lili came home from school and saw her brother and Lou Xiaoe with mysterious smiles on their faces, feeling a little confused.

"Brother, Sister Lou, why are you smiling so mysteriously?" Li Lili asked curiously.

Li Xiangqian smiled and said, "Lili, we have a surprise for you. Close your eyes and we will show you."

Although Li Lili was confused, she still closed her eyes obediently. Li Xiangqian gently took her hand and led her into the room. Then, he asked her to open her eyes.

"Lili, look at this!" Li Xiangqian took out a new schoolbag and handed it to Lili.

Li Lili opened her eyes and saw the pink schoolbag with patterns. She was delighted and took the schoolbag with excitement. "Brother, Sister Lou, this schoolbag is so beautiful! Thank you!"

Li Xiangqian felt a warm feeling. He touched his sister's head and said gently, "Lili, I'm glad you like it. I hope you can be happy when using this schoolbag and face every day with confidence."

Li Lili nodded, tears flashing in her eyes, "Brother, Sister Lou, I will make good use of this schoolbag and will not let you down."

Brother, Sister Lou, I am really happy to have you by my side. "

From that day on, Li Lili went to school every day with her new schoolbag on her back, and her face was always filled with confidence and happiness. Li Xiangqian felt extremely relieved and satisfied when he saw the changes in his sister. He knew that his efforts were not in vain, and his sister finally walked out of the shadows and regained her confidence.
